Chapter 223 This ointment has miraculous effects
"How is he? Can he be saved?"
Seeing that Du Ruoxia had stopped treatment, the bodyguard stepped forward and asked anxiously.
"She should wake up soon after I remove the needles."
Du Ruoxia has a deep understanding of men and her judgments are very accurate.
When she removed the last needle from the man's body, the man lying on the hospital bed opened his eyes as expected.
Although he opened his eyes, they were unfocused.
After a while, his blood circulation returned to normal and his brain received sufficient blood supply, at which point he fully regained consciousness.
"What happened to me? Where am I?"
As the man spoke, he couldn't help but scratch his arm a few times because it itched.
"If you don't want things to get worse, you'd better resist the urge to scratch now."
Du Ruoxia grabbed one of his arms, roughly stopping him.
"But I really feel itchy, and I feel very uncomfortable if I don't scratch it."
The man gave an explanation as a conditioned reflex, and only realized what he meant after he finished explaining.
"Who are you? Why are you interfering in my business?"
Du Ruoxia's lips curled slightly, her face bearing a half-smile, but she didn't rush to speak.
The bodyguard stepped forward and quickly explained the situation to him.
“Mr. Li, you just fainted at the entrance of Ping An Tang. It was this young lady who saved you with acupuncture.”
"She said you went into anaphylactic shock because you put peanut butter in your noodles. The condition progressed very quickly, and you fainted before you even realized what was happening."
"The situation was extremely critical at the time. If you hadn't received timely treatment, you would probably be dead by now."
The bodyguard lowered his voice as he spoke, still feeling lingering fear.
Li Zhanxiong nodded, only then realizing that his attitude just now was a bit inappropriate.
The little girl in front of him was his savior.
My savior is a doctor, so I must listen to what she says.
"But what should I do if I'm really itchy?"
Li Zhanxiong couldn't help but scratch his arm while speaking.
His hand stopped halfway up the mountain because he realized he couldn't do that.
Du Ruoxia took out a tube of plaster from her pocket. It was her latest research and development, and it hadn't yet undergone clinical trials.
Since this person has run into her hands, she might as well use him as a guinea pig and test the drug's effects first.
The anti-itch ointment was packaged in a porcelain bottle; the antique-style bottle was inexplicably appealing.
Du Ruoxia used a cotton swab to apply a little to Li Zhanxiong's red and swollen skin.
The area where the ointment was applied immediately felt cool.
The redness and swelling on the skin subsided at a visible speed.
This shocked not only Li Zhanxiong, but also Du Ruoxia, who found it unbelievable.
This newly developed drug was something she hadn't expected.
She simply developed the drug based on her own understanding and ideas.
Of course, meticulous calculations were performed in the process, and all issues were considered.
She knew the medicine was effective, but she didn't expect it to have such amazing results.
The area of redness and swelling on Li Zhanxiong's body was too large; it would probably take a whole bottle of medicine to apply it all.
Du Ruoxia only cleaned two areas for him, and he was already amazed.
"Where did you buy this medicine? Could you buy me a bottle too?"
Li Zhanxiong has come to regard this bottle of medicine as a life-saving miracle drug.
The areas that were originally red and swollen quickly became comfortable after applying this medicine.
The cool, comfortable sensation made him gasp in relief.
My skin was covered in bumps, which looked disgusting and was also very painful.
The bumps disappeared immediately after applying this medicine, and the redness and swelling also vanished.
For someone who has experienced suffering, the contrast before and after is simply too stark.
Du Ruoxia applied some more to his body to confirm the medicine's effectiveness, verifying its efficacy. Reluctantly, she put away the remaining medicine.
"Why did you put the medicine away? I'm really itchy, could you please put some more medicine on me?"
Li Zhanxiong looked at her with longing, but Du Ruoxia shook her head and ruthlessly stuffed the medicine into her pocket.
"Why won't you apply some more medicine?"
Li Zhanxiong looked up and asked, puzzled.
"Can I buy this bottle of medicine with my own money?"
When Li Zhanxiong realized that words couldn't get him to compromise, he immediately thought of using his financial power.
How much money are you willing to pay?
Du Ruoxia didn't really want to sell this medicine, but she still tentatively asked a question.
How about I offer 100?
Li Zhanxiong thought that a bottle of ointment probably only cost a few dozen yuan, and that he was already giving 100 yuan, which was a lot.
“This bottle of mine is worth more than 100 yuan. If you’re not sincere, then forget it.”
"Consider it an act of kindness on my part that I saved you for nothing. I have other things to do and I'm heading back now."
Du Ruoxia was about to leave as she spoke, giving him no chance to react.
Li Zhanxiong didn't expect the girl to be so resolute. He had only said one wrong thing, and she was leaving without giving him any face at all.
His expression immediately turned somewhat grim, but regardless, this girl had indeed saved his life.
I would feel guilty if he didn't know how to be grateful.
"Don't go! I was just joking. How much does this medicine cost? Where can I buy it?"
"I have money, just name your price."
Li Zhanxiong took the leather bag he was carrying and unzipped it in front of Du Ruoxia.
The bag contained neatly arranged bundles of hundred-yuan bills.
He casually took out two bundles and pushed them in front of Du Ruoxia.
"Consider this money as my way of thanking you for saving my life."
A bundle of money contains about 20 bills, which is equivalent to 2,000 yuan.
There are 40 of these two types of bills, which is equivalent to 4,000 yuan.
Li Zhanxiong showed his sincerity, and Du Ruoxia's expression softened considerably, and her attitude became much better than before.
"Since you're so generous, it wouldn't be right for me to be stingy. I'll give you this medicine."
Du Ruoxia spent over four thousand yuan on medicinal herbs today.
Selling just one bottle of medicine is enough to break even.
Although the anti-itch cream was newly developed by her and there was only one bottle in the world, she still generously gave it to him.
Du Ruoxia helped Li Zhanxiong apply the anti-itch cream all over his body.
Soon the redness and swelling all over his body subsided, and his skin completely returned to normal.
The man who had just been lying on the hospital bed, barely clinging to life, suddenly became energetic and lively again.
"This medicine is incredibly effective. Do you have any more? I'd like to buy more."
"Would you sell it for 4,000 yuan a bottle? If you have any, give me five bottles."
Li Zhanxiong's family has a history of hereditary skin allergies.
Besides peanuts, there are several other foods that can cause skin allergies in them.
They can easily experience anaphylactic shock if they are not careful.
This situation came on suddenly and was extremely dangerous.
Every time this happens, if the person isn't taken to the hospital in time, their life is in danger.
Once or twice is fine, but after it happens many times, they start to panic.
They are now terrified of this situation. They have seen doctors many times, but have not found a cure.
However, the ointment that Du Ruoxia took out had miraculous effects.
On the one hand, it can reduce their pain, and on the other hand, it can be used as an emergency treatment when they have an allergic reaction.
Li Zhanxiong consulted many doctors, but none of them could develop such a special drug.
Therefore, he knew the value of the medicine and could afford the high price.
