After a few needle pricks, Yun Ruoyan suddenly felt better and took deep breaths of fresh air.
People were being carried out of the fire, but fortunately the fire was under control.
"How are you feeling?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"I'm fine." Yun Ruoyan coughed a few times.
"I'm going to rescue people." Ye Xingchen looked around and saw many people who had been poisoned by the thick smoke. The ambulance had not yet arrived at the scene, and if they were not treated in time, their respiratory systems might be damaged.
When he arrived at an elderly man who had fainted, he quickly performed acupuncture and channeled his inner energy. The old man slowly regained consciousness, and then Ye Xingchen got up and moved on to the next one.
At that moment, a woman with heavy makeup and carrying live-streaming equipment darted out of the crowd; she was probably live-streaming.
"Guys, I'm at Baiyi Shopping Mall right now. The fire is huge! Dozens of people have died, and many are burned beyond recognition." The woman's exaggerated tone and highly inflammatory manner amplified the situation.
"This is Honghong, providing live updates from the scene of the fire. Please like, comment, and follow Honghong..."
Ye Xingchen frowned. This woman must be an internet celebrity, a typical person who loves to stir up trouble. He walked over to a little boy who was coughing violently and began to give the boy acupuncture to stop his cough.
"The doctor hasn't arrived yet. Hey, there's someone here using acupuncture to save someone." Honghong shoved the camera right in Ye Xingchen's face: "Excuse me, are you a doctor? Do you have a medical license? The ambulance hasn't arrived yet. What if something goes wrong if you try to save someone recklessly? Will you be responsible?"
A single finger strike stopped the little boy's cough, and he coughed up a large amount of black phlegm, which was dust from the thick smoke he had inhaled.
"Wow, what is this kid vomiting? Hey, I'm talking to you! Don't go! What if you cause someone's death by treating them haphazardly? Are you even a doctor?" Honghong got angry when Ye Xingchen ignored her.
She's a minor internet celebrity with three million followers; with just a phone, she's a god, capable of turning day into night. When has she ever been treated like this?
"Get out of my way. I'm saving someone. I don't have time to answer you." Ye Xingchen glanced at her coldly.
"What kind of attitude is this? I asked you if you're a doctor?" The woman shoved her phone in Ye Xingchen's face.
"Can't someone who isn't a doctor save lives?" Ye Xingchen retorted.
"Of course not, you have to wait for the doctor to come. If the doctor just sticks needles around randomly, who will you turn to if something goes wrong? Family members, see this guy's true colors. If anyone gets hurt here today, dox this guy." Honghong incited her fans in the live stream.
"Doctor, has the doctor arrived yet?" Just then, two firefighters carried a person out of the shopping mall, which was billowing with thick smoke.
This is a girl with extensive burns on her face and body.
"I am Chen Wei, the director of the burn unit at the Third People's Hospital." A middle-aged man who was also helping with the rescue quickly stepped forward.
Ye Xingchen frowned. The girl was badly injured. He pushed Honghong aside and strode forward.
"Ah! Someone's been hit! Guys, this guy is too barbaric! We can't let this go! Everyone, let's get him identified!" Honghong screamed at Ye Xingchen, rushing forward with her phone in hand.
"50% of her body is burned, which is severe. She needs immediate surgery. Why hasn't the ambulance arrived yet?" Chen Wei became anxious when he saw the girl's injuries.
"There's been a multi-vehicle collision at the intersection, and the cars can't get through," the firefighters said urgently. "We'll take her to the hospital right away."
“No, she can’t move right now. She needs immediate wound cleaning and fire suppression. If she moves, she probably won’t make it to the hospital,” Chen Wei said anxiously. “Her breathing is very weak right now, and her heart could stop beating at any moment.”
"I'll go." Just then, Ye Xingchen pushed through the crowd and rushed over, with Yun Ruoyan following closely behind.
Seeing her injuries, Ye Xingchen frowned slightly. He quickly performed acupuncture on the girl to protect her heart meridian and shouted to Yun Ruoyan, "Doesn't our company have a Golden Red Wound Ointment? Have someone transfer some over immediately."
"I have some samples here, is this enough?" Yun Ruoyan quickly rummaged through her bag and poured out several boxes of medicine.
This was originally a sample she used for business discussions today, in a large package, but now it's come in handy.
"That's enough. Open the medicine and apply it to her wounds." Ye Xingchen began to focus on acupuncture.
"You're a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine?" Chen Wei was slightly taken aback. "Her injuries are quite severe; acupuncture probably won't be very effective."
"The purpose of acupuncture is to protect the heart and keep her alive. The main treatment is the ointment, which is cooling, analgesic, and hemostatic, and has an excellent effect on burns," said Ye Xingchen.
"Let me help." Chen Wei quickly took a box of medicine: "I've never heard of this medicine before."
"It's normal that you haven't heard of Xingchen Group's new drug, since the company is newly established," Ye Xingchen said.
Chen Wei didn't have time to think; saving lives was the priority. He quickly squeezed out the medicine and applied it to the girl's wound.
“We’ve found this kid, family! Look, everyone, this guy isn’t a doctor at all, he’s a fraud.” Honghong squeezed into the crowd and continued to hold her phone up to Ye Xingchen’s face: “Everyone, take a good look at his face.”
"Shut up." Ye Xingchen was annoyed by the noise. He shouted softly, which made Honghong take several steps back.
After all, with the strength of a Heavenly Realm expert, a single angry shout made the woman's face turn pale and her heart pound wildly.
Ye Xingchen ignored her and continued with the acupuncture.
"He yelled at me! Family, how dare he yell at me! I'll make him pay!" Honghong, realizing what had happened, felt humiliated and screamed, "Apologize to me, right now!"
Ye Xingchen was focused on performing acupuncture and ignored her. The woman called out a few times, then suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ye Xingchen's shoulder: "Didn't you hear me? Don't you know who I am? Believe me, my family will spit on you to death."
Ye Xingchen was focused on acupuncture when the woman grabbed his shoulder, causing the needle in his hand to veer off course and deviate three points from the acupoint.
The girl suddenly convulsed, and Ye Xingchen's expression changed. He quickly returned the needle to its normal position, then spread his five fingers on his right hand and slapped Honghong across the face.
*Smack!* Honghong screamed as she was thrown several meters away, but she still gripped her phone tightly. She screamed, "You dare hit me? My family, he hit me! Waaah, I'm calling the police!"
The live stream chat exploded, with a group of brainless fans clamoring for Ye Xingchen to pay the price.
"Listen carefully, my name is Ye Xingchen, chairman of Xingchen Group. I take full responsibility for my actions." Ye Xingchen said in a deep voice, "I am currently saving someone. If you dare to disturb me again, it won't be as simple as slapping your face."
"What makes you so arrogant? He just has a lousy company. Family members, dox him and expose his company online!" Honghong said angrily. "He even tried to save people? The person had already been burned to death. How could he be brought back to life? Look, isn't this a dead body?"
