Chapter 447: 128: She is the person I’m looking for! _3
Although Miss Ji expressed complete disdain for Traditional Chinese Medicine, Abner was not ready to give up. He had been to many countries, and China was his only hope.
His mother’s illness could not be delayed any longer.
“Miss Ji, I think you are biased towards ancient Chinese medical practices. The treatment isn’t over yet, and neither of us has the right to judge whether she is a fraud or not.”
Seeing Abner still stubborn and persistent, Miss Ji continued: “Mr. Abner, I understand that in your desperation to cure your mother, you would try anything. Let’s put aside, for the moment, whether ancient medicine is effective. But consider her age. Do you think she, merely a child, is capable of performing life-saving surgeries?”
He had to concede the point.
She was too young.
At most seventeen or eighteen, in their country people of this age are still in high school and haven’t even entered college yet.
How could such a child possibly have the skills to treat patients and save lives?
He must have been insane to believe that this small child possessed medical skills.
Abner withdrew his gaze, the fire of hope in his eyes extinguished completely. He looked at Miss Ji, “Let’s go.”
“Alright.” Miss Ji nodded and said to the driver, “Drive to De Rui restaurant.”
The driver started the engine, and the black car soon disappeared down the road.
Two minutes after the car left, the previously unconscious old lady Shangguan slowly opened her eyes. The world spun around her, surrounded by faces, which made her somewhat dazed. Was she dreaming?
“She’s awake! She’s awake!”
“She’s really awake!”
Excited voices came from the crowd.
Turns out the girl does have some real skills.
“Old Lady, how are you feeling now?” Ni Yang slowly helped Old Lady Shangguan up.
Old Lady Shangguan gradually regained consciousness, “Yangyang? Why are you here too?”
Someone immediately said, “Old lady, you have to thank this young girl. If it wasn’t for her, you would be in danger.”
“Yes, yes, you really need to thank her.”
The crowd was buzzing, and Old Lady Shangguan understood what had happened. She had suddenly fainted on the road and Ni Yang was passing by and saved her.
“Yangyang, thank you!” Old Lady Shangguan held Ni Yang’s hand tightly.
Ni Yang smiled and said, “Thank goodness you’re okay. I’ll take you to the hospital to get checked out, just to be safe.” Ni Yang had already performed acupuncture on Old Lady Shangguan, and was certain the addition of Western medical instruments would be doubly effective.
These days, Western medicine is popular globally, and people are increasingly dismissing Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Actually, both Traditional and Western medicine have their strengths and weaknesses.
Traditional medicine treats the root cause, while Western medicine treats the symptoms. Combining the two is the best way to benefit humanity.
“Okay.” Old Lady Shangguan nodded, “I appreciate it, Yangyang.”
Ni Yang gently smiled and added, “By the way, where is Xiaoxi today?”
Old Lady Shangguan replied, “Xiaoxi had something to do today, so he didn’t come with me.”
“Oh.” Ni Yang nodded.
The hospital was not far from here. Ni Yang helped Old Lady Shangguan and they arrived at the hospital in no time.
No matter the era, hospitals are always crowded.
While Ni Yang was registering for a number, Old Lady Shangguan found a public phone booth on the first floor and made a call.
Ni Yang successfully registered and helped Old Lady Shangguan to the Cardiology Department. On their way up, she unexpectedly saw a familiar figure in the first-floor lobby.
Was that…
Li Xianxian?
Ni Yang squinted, what was she doing at the hospital?
And, the direction Li Xianxian was heading towards seemed to be the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department.
The Gynecology and Obstetrics Department…
Could it be that Li Xianxian was pregnant?
Ni Yang smirked slightly. This was interesting.
In a short while, Shangguan Xu appeared in the Cardiology Department. He ran over, sweat splotches appearing on his forehead, even dampening the tips of his hair, “Grandma, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, thanks to Yangyang. Otherwise, it would have been a real disaster,” Old Lady Shangguan said with a beaming smile.
“Where is Miss Ni?” Shangguan Xu looked around but didn’t see Ni Yang’s figure.
Old Lady Shangguan replied, “Yangyang went to get my report.”
“Oh.” Shangguan Xu nodded.
While Ni Yang was fetching the report for Old Lady Shangguan, she also managed to make a trip to the second-floor Gynecology and Obstetrics Department.
Over there, she saw Li Xianxian sitting on a blue plastic chair with her queue number.
Considering Li Xianxian’s current condition, she was very likely to be pregnant.
Could the baby be Baichuan’s?
If Li Xianxian was really pregnant with Baichuan’s child, would she still deliberately break up with him and still be entangled with Li Ting?
