Chapter 19 (2/2)
“Make way, pass the child to me.”
Rolling up her sleeves, Wu Mei ignored the vomit on the floor and knelt down. She moved the boy from his mother’s arms to the flat ground. Then, she gently pressed a few of his acupuncture points. Within about two or three minutes, the boy’s face showed signs of alleviation and his breathing steadied.
The onlookers exclaimed in surprise. They cheered and applauded.
This is the real doctor!
“…”
“Thank you! I was blind just now! Please don’t stoop yourself to my level!”
The boy’s parents emotionally sank to their knees and kowtowed nonstop to thank Wu Mei for pulling their son back from the brink of death.
“He has probably had difficulty breathing previously, but you guys didn’t take it seriously. Go to the hospital and have a CT scan done.”
Wu Mei stood up and wiped her fingers. Suddenly, she heard some sarcastic words coming from the crowd.
“It was just a coincidence and you’re lucky! I had already performed emergency treatment for him. Anyone who comes can save him!”
The doctor rolled his eyes and looked at Wu Mei as if she had stolen his glory.
Running into quacks a few days in a row made Wu Mei a little angry. She rushed to the doctor in three strides, grabbed him by the neck with her hand, and effortlessly swung him to the edge of the overpass.
“Help, help… what are you doing!”
The doctor’s body was hanging on the outside. He was so frightened that he nearly peed in his pants.
However, Wu Mei did not care. She loosened her grip and looked at the doctor who was clutching her arm tightly. She sneered and asked, “Aren’t you a doctor?”
“Didn’t you think that your medical skills are outstanding?”
“If I throw you down from here, will you be able to treat yourself?”
Excitement flashed across Wu Mei’s eyes and she said, “I’m really curious. Why don’t we give it a try?”
“No, no, no. I’m an intern doctor. I just made a mistake in the hospital and my license was revoked!”
“Please don’t… Don’t throw me down. I’ll die!”
A few drops of foul-smelling liquid flowed down the doctor’s trouser leg, causing the surrounding crowd to cover their mouths and noses as they criticized him.
Wu Mei couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. She flung him back onto the ground. She watched as he crawled away from the railing like a slug. “So… so scary…”
Li Nanchen, who was far away, scrutinised Wu Mei seriously. She seems to have become another person.
In the past, she has never revealed such martial arts skills or abilities…
Does this mean that he can really believe that she has the medical skills to cure Old Master Li?
