Chapter 5: First sight, heartbeat
"mom!"
Xiao Zhiwei frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Okay, Zhiwei."
Guo Huaqin held Xiao Zhiwei's hand and signaled her to stop talking.
Then when he looked at Ruan Chuxia, his originally cold expression softened a lot.
"Xiao Ruan, how do you want to treat it?"
The family of four looked at her.
Ruan Chuxia remained very calm. She took out the needles and said calmly, "After taking the old man's pulse, I will give him acupuncture. Our Jin family has a set of secret acupuncture techniques. Combined with the prescription I carefully prepared and the herbs selected from the family, I believe that within a month, the old man will be able to recover!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Xiao Zhiwei widened his eyes, his face full of suspicion.
She looked at Ruan Chuxia.
"The old man is so ill now that he can't even speak. Do you think he can get better with just a few injections and some medicine?"
"Who are you trying to fool?"
Ruan Chuxia was too lazy to pay attention to this short-sighted woman.
The Jin family has a long tradition of medical skills, and they often save lives when others think there is no hope!
In the past, even those prestigious and wealthy families had to wait in line if they wanted to invite someone from the Jin family to see a doctor!
Then, Ruan Chuxia carefully took out a specially prepared long silver needle from the needle bag she carried with her.
Since the old man is in a serious coma at the moment, we first need to stimulate several key acupoints to awaken his consciousness.
Just as she had prepared everything and was about to start thoroughly disinfecting the silver needle, her wrist was suddenly firmly grasped by someone.
Xiao Zhiwei's action made Ruan Chuxia feel a sharp pain, and she couldn't help but frown.
Faced with this situation, Ruan Chuxia's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and she said in a cold voice: "You'd better let go quickly."
However, Xiao Zhiwei not only refused to let go, but instead grabbed Ruan Chuxia's wrist even more tightly, while his eyes were fixed on the silver needle.
"Tell me, what is this thing? It looks quite scary."
Ruan Chuxia raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Isn't this obvious? Haven't you seen acupuncture tools before?"
"Of course I've seen these things!"
Xiao Zhiwei glanced to the side and muttered in dissatisfaction.
"Do they meet hygiene standards? Which manufacturer produced them? Are they clean and sterile enough?"
It's just looking for trouble.
Ruan Chuxia raised her eyelids lazily, knowing in her heart that Xiao Zhiwei just had a grudge against her and was deliberately looking for trouble!
“Ahem!”
Suddenly, Mr. Xiao on the hospital bed closed his eyes, his breathing became rapid, and his face turned extremely pale.
His coughing became louder and louder, and he seemed to be unable to breathe.
"dad!"
Guo Huaqin was shocked and frightened and wanted to call a doctor immediately.
Xiao Zhiwei was also frightened by this sudden situation, and his face turned pale.
She stood there in a daze, then came to her senses and prepared to rush out of the ward to call for help.
Suddenly, the whole ward was in chaos.
But at this critical moment, Ruan Chuxia remained calm and quickly pulled out a silver needle from the needle box.
In such a critical situation, she no longer cared about disinfection and directly plunged towards Mr. Xiao's head!
“What are you doing!”
Following Xiao Zhiwei's scream, Ruan Chuxia moved quickly and inserted the needle in a few strokes.
Her technique was precise and swift. Within seconds, she had inserted the needle into the old man's head, chest, arms, legs, and even the soles of his feet...
Dozens of important acupoints on the body were soon covered with silver needles.
Her technique was extremely skillful. When Xiao Zhiwei and the others recovered, they saw that Mr. Xiao's breathing had gradually stabilized and his originally tense brows began to relax.
His face gradually regained a hint of redness from its previous paleness.
"This...how is this..."
Guo Huaqin widened her eyes in surprise.
She couldn't believe it at all. Ruan Chuxia simply gave her a few injections.
The condition of the person who was dying before has improved significantly.
When Xiao Zhiyu saw the old man's signs of improvement, his expression became serious.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ruan Chuxia carefully, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.
"grandfather!"
Xiao Zhiwei hurriedly called the doctor.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Mr. Xiao lying flat on the hospital bed.
His breathing had returned to normal, completely different from before.
This change made Xiao Zhiwei open his mouth in surprise.
The doctors who rushed to the ward were also amazed.
After a series of careful examinations, they found that Mr. Xiao's physical indicators were not only returning to normal, but also showing a positive trend.
The doctors looked at Ruan Chuxia in surprise.
"You...little girl, how did you do it?" asked a doctor.
You know, since coming to the hospital, several senior experts have tried various methods, but they can only barely maintain the old man's vital signs.
And now, Ruan Chuxia only took some intervention measures, and the old man's condition improved significantly!
Just as Ruan Chuxia's mouth corners rose slightly.
Just as I was about to explain, I suddenly heard the old man cough slightly and opened his eyes!
Old Master Xiao's lips were cracked as he muttered, "Zhi Yu..."
"grandfather."
Xiao Zhiyu immediately walked quickly to the bed and looked down at the old man.
Old Master Xiao slowly opened his eyes.
With his vision still a little blurry, he reached out and tightly grasped Xiao Zhiyu's arm, then asked in a hoarse voice: "Ruan family...Where is the girl from the Ruan family?"
Seeing this, Guo Huaqin hurriedly pushed Ruan Chuxia's shoulder.
There was obvious fatigue on her face. She covered her mouth with one hand, trying to hold back her tears, and at the same time gave Ruan Chuxia a look full of gratitude.
Ruan Chuxia understood what she meant. She leaned over to the bed and called softly, "Grandpa Xiao."
Hearing Ruan Chuxia's voice, Mr. Xiao seemed very excited.
He choked out a sob, his eyes red.
"Why!"
He seemed to be thinking of his deceased friend, tears streaming down his face.
Tears streamed down his cloth-covered cheeks.
Old Master Xiao held Xiao Zhiyu's hand tightly, then took Ruan Chuxia's hand, putting their hands together and holding them tightly.
His fingers involuntarily closed together and accidentally touched Ruan Chuxia's fingertips.
At that moment, he almost wanted to hold this little hand in his palm forever.
Ruan Chuxia's face turned red instantly and her heart beat faster.
She frowned slightly and tried to pull her hand back.
But out of respect for Mr. Xiao, she had to keep smiling and hold it in.
She knew that she couldn't let Grandpa Xiao notice anything unusual at this time, so she could only try her best to appear calm.
Seeing Ruan Chuxia's discomfort, Xiao Zhiyu's dark eyes showed some hesitation, and he restrained himself from touching her again.
The two were very close to each other. As long as Xiao Zhiyu lowered his head, he could see Ruan Chuxia's black and soft hair and smell the faint fragrance coming from the side.
Old Master Xiao didn't notice their interaction, and said in a hoarse, old voice, "You two should be good..."
