After being repeatedly harassed, Wang Wei was getting angry. He was trying to figure out how to retort, but his gaze unconsciously swept over Lu Xiuxiu's chest. That glance made it even clearer to him, and he thought to himself, "Damn, it's no different from her back..."
A look of disdain flashed in his eyes, which Lu Xiuxiu saw all of this, almost driving her crazy. This was utterly humiliating...
She was the eldest daughter of the prestigious Lu family, while this bastard was just a poor loser. What right did he have to look down on her?
Her gaze then fell on Wang Wei's arm, which was now completely enveloped by Lu Xiaoxiao's tenderness. This sight made Lu Xiuxiu's face darken even more; this silent humiliation was even more heart-wrenching…
"He's my assistant; he needs to come in with me..."
Fang Xuan said calmly, but Lu Xiuxiu was even angrier to hear this. What kind of assistant walks ahead of you? This was clearly making excuses for Wang Wei…
"I can go in, but I'm not allowed to speak or appear in front of Grandpa. I'm afraid I'll offend Grandpa's eyes..."
Every word of those words was humiliating to Wang Wei, but Wang Wei didn't take it to heart. After all, Fang Xuan was a master of traditional Chinese medicine, and the treatment relied entirely on him; he was just a bystander...
The group entered a huge room one after another, and upon opening the door, they were greeted by a strong smell of disinfectant…
Then, what came into view was a large bed filled with various medical instruments, and lying on the bed was an elderly man who was extremely thin...
The elderly patient was now breathing more air than gas, and several nurses were closely monitoring the equipment so they could provide immediate resuscitation should anything go wrong…
"grandfather…"
Lu Xiaoxiao finally let go of Wang Wei, knelt down beside Old Master Lu, and called out...
Perhaps hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's call, Lu Zhengguo struggled to open his tightly closed eyes...
"Little...Little...is back..."
Although it was just a few words, it exhausted all the old man's strength, which also shows his affection for Lu Xiaoxiao...
"Grandpa, I've found you a renowned traditional Chinese medicine master, Fang Xuan. I've asked him to take your pulse; you'll definitely recover..."
Fang Xuan sat down next to Lu Zhengguo with a solemn expression, thinking to himself, "At this point, there's really no need to take his pulse anymore..."
Despite inwardly complaining, Fang Xuan still took Lu Zhengguo's pulse...
Lu Zhengguo's pulse was already very weak and erratic; under such circumstances, reversing his condition was almost impossible...
Wang Wei, also taking a chance, used his super-X-ray vision to look at Lu Zhengguo. What he saw was shocking: Lu Zhengguo wasn't terminally ill, but rather poisoned…
While his face showed shock, he was also pondering the key to this...
Someone definitely wanted to kill Lu Zhengguo, but they did it very discreetly. And the person who did this must be someone from the Lu family, or someone who frequently got close to Lu Zhengguo…
This time, Fang Xuan took a long time to take Wang Wei's pulse. When he stood up, he glanced at Wang Wei, seemingly asking him something...
This left Wang Wei feeling helpless. He thought to himself, "How can a master of traditional Chinese medicine not be able to diagnose poisoning?"
However, Wang Wei nodded at him, indicating that he had discovered something different...
"Old Master Lu, the results of the pulse diagnosis shouldn't be known to too many people, what do you think..."
Fang Xuan's meaning was clear: he wanted all bystanders to leave...
Lu Zhengguo gave the order without even raising his eyes.
"Everyone, please go out first..."
"grandfather…"
Lu Xiuxiu didn't want to leave, which made her feel uneasy...
"go out…"
Although Lu Zhengguo spoke softly, his authority was so great that no one dared to disobey him…
Soon everyone retreated, and at this moment Fang Xuan looked at Wang Wei and said...
"You have to stay..."
"Why should he stay?"
Lu Xiuxiu frowned and questioned him, her eyes filled with disgust…
"Because he can help me treat Old Master Lu's illness. Are you trying to stop me from treating Old Master Lu?"
With such a serious accusation leveled against her, Lu Xiuxiu had no choice but to back out, no matter how unwilling she was…
Only Lu Zhengguo, the patient, remained in the room, along with Fang Xuan, the master of traditional Chinese medicine, and Wang Wei, the fake doctor…
"Mr. Lu, you are very weak right now. I hope you won't get agitated by what I'm about to say, because you can't withstand any stimulation at this moment..."
With Wang Wei here, the two of us working together have a sliver of hope to prolong your life for a while longer, but if you get too agitated, you could very well die immediately…”
With Fang Xuan's reminder, Lu Zhengguo slowly nodded, indicating that he understood...
With Old Master Lu's response, Fang Xuan immediately stated his diagnosis.
"You're currently suffering from poisoning..."
Seeing that Lu Zhengguo didn't react much, Fang Xuan couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"You don't seem surprised by what happened to you?"
Seeing Lu Zhengguo nod slightly, Fang Xuan understood that the other party must know something, but since he was bedridden and powerless to change anything, he could only accept his fate…
"I can use acupuncture to help you expel the toxins from your body, but this treatment needs to be performed in the presence of your family. If you're okay with it, nod; if you don't want the treatment, shake your head..."
Fang Xuan continued to seek the old man's consent...
When Fang Xuan saw Lu Zhengguo nod, he also breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the patient had lost the will to live, and even the best medical skills could not save someone who was determined to die...
"The poison in your body entered through your bloodstream, and I suspect that someone may have poisoned your IV drip..."
The toxins have spread throughout your body. I need to locate the areas where the toxins have accumulated, which may take a long time…”
As Fang Xuan arranged the silver needles, he recounted Lu Zhengguo's situation...
"Master Fang, I know where the toxins are accumulating..."
Seeing how heartbroken Lu Xiaoxiao was, Wang Wei decided to help her this once...
"You know what? Even I can't pinpoint the location of the toxin buildup, so how did you determine it?"
Fang Xuan asked in shock!
Wang Wei thought to himself, "I saw it with my own eyes, but if I say that, people will definitely think I'm crazy..."
After hesitating for a moment, he could only boast.
"Based on my medical expertise..."
Fang Xuan actually fell for his act. After pondering for a moment, he nodded and said...
"There's no better way right now, and your medical skills are indeed better than mine, and your judgment is definitely more accurate. But I need to confirm. I've roughly found six locations: Tanzhong, Tianzhu, Zhangmen, Yintang, Qugu, Xinshu..."
Wang Wei also knew that Fang Xuan wanted to confirm whether he could really pinpoint the location of the toxin accumulation...
He continued to add
"Fengchi (GB20), Fengfu (GV16), Laogong (PC8), Hegu (LI4), Neiguan (PC6), Jiquan (HT1), Zusanli (ST36), Neiting (ST44), Taichong (LR3), Taiyang (EX-HN5), Dazhui (GV14)..."
