Chapter 122 Saving the Old Man



"Make way, make way, everyone spread out a bit. Can't you see this old man is having trouble breathing? Please spread out so the air can circulate a little more."

Xiao Qianqian had already squeezed in a bit, but the onlookers, seeing her heavily pregnant belly still trying to push her way in, couldn't help but shriek, "Who are you? You're so pregnant, why do you still like to join in the fun? You can't see from the outside, yet you still insist on squeezing in. Are you trying to scam me?"

Another woman with heavy makeup added sarcastically, "Yeah, there are all sorts of people these days. Everyone should be careful not to get scammed by this woman."

"The world is going to the dogs. A pregnant woman with such a big belly shouldn't be staying home; she's out out trying to make money off baby formula. It seems like faking an accident is a lucrative profession."

Xiao Qianqian ignored the jeers and pushed her way in. She saw the old woman lying on the ground, struggling to breathe, her body curled up, and her face turning bluish-purple. She took the old woman's arm and felt her pulse, which was already weak.

Judging from the woman's appearance, she had a heart problem. She tried to squat down, but because her abdomen was large, she slowly squatted down while supporting her belly, preparing to perform CPR on the old woman.

"Look, what is this pregnant woman trying to do? Is she trying to perform CPR on this old man?"

"This pregnant woman is really brave."

"Isn't she afraid of killing this old man with her treatment?"

...

Ignoring the doubts of those around her, Xiao Qianqian began performing CPR on the old woman. She pressed on the woman's chest while observing her reactions. Because the woman's belly was large, squatting was very strenuous, and beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead. However, due to the urgency of the situation, she dared not stop.

"This pregnant woman is really reckless! What if something happens to her?" someone said worriedly.

"Yes, I see that the old woman's face is bluish-black, she may have a serious illness. I wonder if what she did will get her into trouble."

"Although she was pregnant, her technique seemed very skilled; she might actually be a doctor."

"Yes, she seemed very professional."

Everyone was talking at once, but no one was willing to lend a hand, all afraid of being scammed.

Just then, another force pushed through the crowd, and Zhang Qi squeezed in with difficulty. His face was full of worry and anxiety, and his hair was soaked with sweat. After parking his car, he started running over at top speed, and he was still panting heavily.

He approached Xiao Qianqian and saw her performing artificial respiration on the elderly man with great effort. Sweat streamed down her face, but she looked very serious, observing the elderly man's expression as she did so.

"Madam, you rest for a bit, I'll do it for her. You can teach me." Xiao Qianqian stopped what she was doing upon hearing Zhang Qi's words, panting heavily. She nodded, signaling Zhang Qi to begin.

Following Xiao Qianqian's instructions, Zhang Qi performed CPR on the elderly man. Although his movements were somewhat clumsy, he was very serious.

After a while, the old man's complexion gradually regained some color, and he began to breathe weakly.

"Alright, that's enough, Assistant Zhang."

Zhang Qi stopped what she was doing, stood up and moved aside.

At this moment, Xiao Qianqian squatted down, took out her silver needles, and inserted them into several acupuncture points on the old man. Xiao Qianqian focused intently on the acupuncture, while everyone watched nervously. A few minutes later, the old man slowly opened his eyes, looking around at the unfamiliar environment with a blank expression.

"She's awake! She's awake!" came joyful voices from the crowd.

Xiao Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"Grandpa, how are you feeling?" she asked with concern.

The old man nodded weakly, "Much better... Thank you..."

Zhang Qi then went over to help the old woman up and gave her some water.

The old man looked at him and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, it's what we should do," Zhang Qi quickly replied.

At this moment, the ambulance arrived at the scene. The paramedics got out and examined the elderly woman to make sure she was out of danger before asking, "Who performed first aid on her? Her heart rate is normal now."

"Doctor, it's them, the pregnant woman and the young man."

"Yes, it's them."

...

The doctor looked at Xiao Qianqian and Zhang Qi and said, "You did a great job. If the elderly woman hadn't taken these first aid measures, we might not have made it in time. She suffered a sudden myocardial infarction and could have died suddenly."

"Don't mention it, we're just doing our part," Xiao Qianqian said with a smile.

"Okay, why don't you come with us to the hospital? You can leave after this elderly man's examination is complete, okay?"

Zhang Qi checked her phone; it was already past eleven. Even if she rushed to the client's place, it would be too late.

"Okay," Xiao Qianqian replied.

When the people around heard the doctor say this, they all applauded, and praises rose and fell.

Xiao Qianqian smiled and nodded to everyone to express her gratitude.

Medical staff lifted the elderly man onto a stretcher, and Zhang Qi, with Xiao Qianqian's help, followed. The ambulance sped off, taking the elderly man to the hospital for further examination and treatment.

"Madam, you should also get a check-up when we get to the hospital. You really scared me to death just now." Zhang Qi looked at Xiao Qianqian with worry in her eyes.

Xiao Qianqian smiled and shook her head. "No need, Assistant Zhang. I'm a doctor, I know my own body very well. I'm fine. I wouldn't joke around with my health."
