Director Qiu then examined Hu Zi's upper body and found nothing wrong with it.

When they got to the lower body, Director Qiu had just touched Hu Zi's feet.

The next second.

Tiger burst into tears with a loud "waa," his cries sounding so shrill that everyone present was startled.

Upon seeing this, Director Qiu immediately withdrew his hand.

Su Yan quickly picked up Hu Zi and comforted him, "What's wrong? The doctor didn't hit you."

Tiger hugged her neck tightly, his chubby body sobbing uncontrollably.

Su Yan pulled him away, wanting to wipe his tears, but then she saw that Hu Zi's clear black and white eyes were full of resistance.

She was stunned for a moment.

A thought flashed through my mind, but I couldn't quite grasp it.

Director Qiu frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "This child should know the condition of his leg, which is why he is so resistant to the examination."

Upon hearing this, everyone present looked on incredulously.

“Director Qiu, he’s still a child, how could he possibly know?” Zou Jialun said.

Director Qiu remained calm and said slowly, "Such a situation is indeed very rare, but I have seen it before. Some children mature earlier, or have higher IQs. Although he is young, he is very clear about his physical condition. He doesn't want me to examine him because he is afraid, and the reason for his fear is most likely that he cannot walk."

Su Yan's mind was a little confused, but she understood what she was hearing.

The world is full of wonders.

Moreover, since Director Qiu in front of her had experience working at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, she naturally trusted him.

"So what do we do now?"

She didn't know much about Western medicine and had never been exposed to it.

She doesn't have the ability to find out about Hu Zi's condition through traditional Chinese medicine, otherwise she wouldn't have come all this way.

Director Qiu glanced at her and said, "It's clear that the child is very dependent on you, so only you can persuade him to cooperate with the examination."

Director Qiu is a straightforward person. He is not good at or knows how to coax children. He is also very strict when dealing with children, and at most he speaks in a gentler tone.

Su Yan understood.

Tiger stopped crying at this point, his little face still looking very aggrieved.

As soon as Su Yan looked at him, he seemed to understand everything and quickly shook his head, "No...rumor!"

He spoke unclearly and slowly, but his determination was evident.

Su Yan was now completely convinced.

Tiger knows everything, and it's not that he doesn't want to talk.

His vocal cords are damaged, which makes it very difficult for him to speak. No wonder he cries so little.

As for why he was afraid of being flattered, we'll have to ask Grandma about that later.

She wiped away the tears on Hu Zi's face and said slowly, "Grandpa and Grandma are still waiting for us at home. They will worry if you don't find out the problem. Doesn't Hu Zi want to walk normally like other children?"

Upon hearing this, Tiger's large, moist eyes flashed with struggle.

He grabbed Su Yan's collar, pouting, "It hurts!"

“It won’t hurt,” Director Qiu said immediately. “Uncle is just checking me out. It won’t hurt. If you don’t believe me, ask your sister.”

Upon hearing this, Tiger looked at Su Yan with longing eyes.

Su Yan nodded gently, "What the doctor said is true. I'll stay right here with you. If you're in pain, we won't continue the examination, okay?"

In the end, Tiger nodded.

When his leg was touched again, a struggle appeared in Tiger's eyes.

Normally, Tiger would instinctively try to avoid such emotions, but right now his legs aren't reacting at all.

Director Qiu pressed down on Hu Zi's thigh.

Tiger's brows furrowed immediately, clearly sensing something.

Dr. Qiu moved down to the knee and pressed it again.

Tiger's expression remained unchanged this time.

Dr. Qiu frowned and massaged his knees up and down again.

Repeat this action many times, but switch to pinching the area behind the calf halfway through.

After a long while, Director Qiu stopped what he was doing, met Su Yan's worried gaze, and said, "The preliminary judgment is that the child is unable to walk normally due to nerve damage in his calf. The child is not completely without feeling, but he can't exert any strength in his calf."

Su Yan's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and she quickly asked, "Under what circumstances can nerve damage occur?"

"Based on my years of experience, I believe that a heavy object fell on the baby's calf and was not moved in time, and it was pressed down for at least ten hours. The baby's body is fragile, and such pressure can easily cause problems. I guess you don't know the specifics. Go back and ask your family."

Su Yan's breathing slowed, and she said heavily, "Is there any hope for this condition? He's still so young..."

Director Qiu shook his head, "Western medicine does not yet have such advanced technology."

Su Yan's heart sank, and she was a little afraid to look into Hu Zi's clear eyes.

Zou Jialun felt a pang of pity. "Is there really no other way? This child isn't even three years old yet, it's so pitiful."

He wasn't an expert in pediatrics, but he knew how serious the consequences of compressing nerves and meridians could be.

Moreover, he was such a small child; he must have felt helpless at the time.

But we can't blame his grandparents either; they were just poor and made a mess of things.

Director Qiu pondered for a moment, “Western medicine doesn’t work…then we can try acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine. Mr. Jue from Beijing is a leading figure in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. If he is willing to treat your brother, there may still be a chance for recovery. However, the old man is getting old and his physical strength is failing. Unless it is a national-level figure or a rare and difficult disease, he generally does not easily take on patients.”

"Mr. Jue Lao?!"

Su Yan's eyes lit up instantly, and her heart burned with excitement once again.

Zou Jialun thought she wanted to ask Jiang Jingxing for help.

However, Jiang Jingxing's status is not high enough, but if General Jiang were to speak up, he could indeed invite Mr. Dongjue.

"That makes things much easier." He smiled and said, "Thank you for your help today, Director Qiu and the two doctors. I'll treat you to dinner next time."

The other two doctors waved their hands, saying, "Dr. Zou, you don't deserve such praise. We weren't much of a help; in fact, we learned a lot."

Director Qiu said, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now. Come find me if you have any further questions."

Su Yan replied, "Thank you, Director Qiu!"

Director Qiu said nothing more and left with the two doctors.

Su Yan looked at Zou Jialun, "Thank you for your help today too."

“We’re so familiar with each other, let’s not talk about these formalities. The fact that you’re willing to trouble me proves that you consider me a friend.” After saying that, Zou Jialun thought for a moment and then said, “It’s not easy to get in touch with Mr. Jue. How about I make an appointment for you?”

His intervention alone is certainly not enough, but he has the Zou family behind him.

"No need to think about it, I have a way to contact Mr. Jue. If I really can't handle it, I will definitely come to you."

Upon hearing this, Zou Jialun stopped insisting.

The inspection has taken less than an hour, so there's still plenty of time.

"Are you going back to Anping Town now?" he asked.

Su Yan said, "I've been running a hotel all day, and I'm going to Yunxiang Restaurant to find Sister Caixia."
