“Alright then. Drive safe.”

“Okay.”

It was already past nine o’clock at night when Wang Yao arrived home. The lights were still on in his house and his parents had not slept yet.

“Father, Mother, why haven’t you gone to bed?”

“How’s your friend’s father?” Zhang Xiuying asked.

“It shouldn’t be too big of a problem if nothing happens. He received his treatment in time,” Wang Yao replied.

“That’s good then.”

“I still have to make a trip there tomorrow morning.”

“Alright. Have you eaten?”

“I haven’t. I’ll just heat the food up myself.”

“Wait. The food is still in the pot.” Zhang Xiuying went to serve her son some food as she spoke.

After eating something at home, Wang Yao gave his parents a massage and then went up the hill.

Why didn’t my neixi have such a good effect at first?

After discovering that the neixi he had practiced was very effective in treating illnesses, Wang Yao had been thinking about this matter. Actually, in the very beginning, he had once used his neixi in treatments, which was in treating Zhou Wukang’s arms. However, the effect was poor at that time. It somewhat felt like he was going too far.

It was either that he did not control his neixi well enough, or his neixi in the past was not pure enough.

He recorded the process and his feelings on the treatment that day. He realized that the use of neixi to aid the treatment of illnesses could, on the one hand, actually help the patients, and, on the other hand, it could strengthen his own practice, which was to have a more finely tuned control over his neixi. This feeling was somewhat similar to the healing of wounds by using neigong, which was mentioned in martial arts novels.

Transfusing Qi to save someone was something that only existed in legends.

Hahaha.

Wang Yao suddenly laughed under the night sky.

Caw. The birds in the forest were shocked.

Wang Yao was quite high in spirits that night. He turned off the lights and went to bed after walking around the herbal field a few times on the hill.

Early morning the next day.

According to the regulations of the hospital, the doctors on duty had to make the rounds of the wards every morning.

In a private ward, Li Maoshuang’s eldest sister asked the old man who had just woken up from a nap, “Father, how are you feeling?”

“I’m pretty well,” the old man answered.

As they were talking, the doctor had come to make the rounds of the wards.

He asked a few questions and asked the old man to try to move a little. The movement he mentioned was to see if the lower half of his body had any reaction.

The doctor did not discover anything, but Li Maoshuang’s attentive eldest sister discovered that the old man’s toes moved a little.

“It moved! It moved!” she exclaimed joyfully.

“Where?” the doctor hurriedly asked.

“His toes moved.”

“Move it again!”

The old man tried to control the movement of his toes. They really moved, but it was very subtle.

“Not bad. This is a good sign,” the doctor said with a smile upon seeing the situation.

The old man’s condition was quite serious. The lower half of his body could not move at all when he was first admitted into the hospital. It was extremely rare that he could recover to even this state just overnight.

“Thank you, doctor,” his eldest sister hurriedly thanked the doctor.

“It’s what I should do.” The doctor smiled and left.

The improvement of the patient’s condition was also a good news to the doctor who was responsible for the patient’s treatment. This proved that his treatment methods and medication were effective.

Just when the doctor had made his round of the ward, Li Maoshuang arrived.

“Has the doctor made his round of the ward?”

“Yes. Father’s toes can move.”

“Really?” Li Maoshuang was very delighted as well.

The old man moved his toes again. After confirming that it was real, Li Maoshuang said with a smile, “Dr. Wang’s pharmaceutical prowess is indeed incredible!”

In his opinion, the old man’s recovery in such a short period of time must be related to the massage which Wang Yao had given his father the day before.

“This is because the doctors in the hospital have used the right medication and that the treatment is good,” his eldest sister corrected by his side. “Dr. Wang only came for such a short period of time. What effect could a massage have?”

“Hey, don’t underestimate the massage!” Li Maoshuang replied. “It’s extremely effective.”

“Okay, okay. I’m not going to argue with you. Stay here and keep watch. I’ll go back and rest for a while. Little Sister will come later.”

“Okay. Go back and rest then.”

While she was going down the stairs, she accidentally ran into Wang Yao who was here to visit the old man.

“Eldest Sister, is your father feeling better?” Wang Yao asked with a smile.

“Yes, he’s a lot better. Thank you!” Those were words of courtesy, not of any gratitude.

Furthermore, Wang Yao was carrying some gifts in his hands. He was obviously here to visit the old man. She could only express her gratitude when he was being thoughtful.

“You’re welcome.”

After a few words of courtesy, Wang Yao took the elevator up.

Why did he come again? Li Maoshuang’s eldest sister did not know what to say.

I hope he doesn’t cause any other problems.

Wang Yao arrived at the old man’s ward. Li Maoshuang was peeling an apple for the old man.

“Uncle, are you feeling better?”

“I’m much better. Come, take a seat quickly. What did you bring?”

Wang Yao put down the things and said a few words to the old man. He asked about how the old man felt.

Looking at his complexion…

Wang Yao did not say much.

He checked the old man’s pulse to give a diagnosis.

“Alright.” Li Maoshuang agreed very readily to another treatment. The old man did not reject as well.

Wang Yao gave him a massage again. This time, the old man’s direct perception was much stronger than that of the last time.

He could clearly feel that something had entered his head from the young man’s palms. It was neither warm nor cold. Anyway, it was very relaxing. His head was slightly swollen.

The process lasted for about more than half an hour. Just as the treatment was coming to an end, Li Maoshuang’s youngest sister came over in a hurry.

She called her eldest sister in the morning. She was very happy to hear that her father’s condition had significantly improved. However, she received another call from her eldest sister, saying that Dr. Wang had come again and she was afraid that he would give her father a treatment. She asked her youngest sister to hurry over in order to prevent any mishaps. Hence, she put her work aside and hurriedly went to the hospital. She was still a step too late. Dr. Wang had already started to treat the old man.

She was very angry. The old man had just gotten slightly better. What should they do if there was a problem? But, she could not lose her temper in front of outsiders. She decided to have a chat with her brother after Wang Yao left.

After the massage, Wang Yao looked at the old man’s complexion. His face was a little rosier. He then checked the old man’s pulse on his head instead of his wrist.

In fact, Wang Yao had already had a general understanding of the condition of the arteries and veins of the old man’s head. He just wanted to make sure for now.

“It’s fine.”

“That’s good then. Thank you,” Li Maoshuang said.

She was mad from looking at her brother to the side. Their father was clearly getting better because of the medicine used in the hospital. What did it have to do with Dr. Wang?

“Looks like there’s no need to use my medicine. We’ll let him recover first and we’ll see.”

“Okay.”

Wang Yao was here for almost an hour and then he made a move to leave. Li Maoshuang saw him off downstairs.

“Father, do you feel unwell?”

Wang Yao had just left and Li Maoshuang’s youngest sister was already asking her father questions in the ward. She was not a three-year-old child. She would not believe that a disease like cerebral thrombosis could be cured by just a massage alone. If it was really that effective, everyone just had to get a massage therapy. What was the purpose of the existence of hospitals?!

“I feel quite well. The young guy’s massage was quite relaxing,” the old man replied with a smile.

He did feel relaxed. It felt like his head was unwound. The tension which he had felt when he was first hospitalized was no longer there. It had felt as if there was a crown slowly tightening on his head, but it was finally releasing.

“Really?” His daughter obviously still did not believe him, or she was not reassured.

“What reason would I have to lie to you?!” The old man opened his eyes wide.

“Okay, okay. It’s fine as long as you feel better. What would you like to eat?”

“I want to drink some water. Your brother brought some congee in the morning. I ate some, so I’m not hungry now.”

“Okay. I’ll help you get up.”

Downstairs of the hospital, Wang Yao said to Li Maoshuang, “Let the old man stay in the hospital and observe him for a period of time. I’ll come again if there are other problems.”

He thought that the old man should not have much of a problem now. Half of the thrombosis in his head should be dredged. Next, as long as he continued to use the medicine in the hospital and receive restorative exercises and treatments, he should be able to recover.

“Okay. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

After leaving the hospital, Wang Yao drove home directly. Li Maoshuang turned around and went up the stairs.

At noon, his eldest and youngest sister had a long discussion. They then decided to talk to Li Maoshuang.

“What’s the matter? Why so solemn?” Li Maoshuang was startled at the sight of his eldest and youngest sister.

“I have to talk to you about something serious.”

“Go ahead. I’m listening,” Li Maoshuang replied with a smile. His was in a good mood as his father was recovering well.

“It’s about Dr. Wang,” his eldest sister said.

“Dr. Wang? What’s wrong with him?”

“Does he really know how to treat illnesses?!”

“Are you joking? Of course!” Li Maoshuang answered. “Oh, I get it. Are you two afraid that he’s a swindler?” Li Maoshuang was not dumb. He could understand with just a few words from his eldest sister. His eldest and youngest sister probably wanted to talk to him in a hurry because of Wang Yao. They were afraid that he was being deceived.

Haha. He laughed and shook his head.

“He really does know how to treat illnesses. Moreover, his pharmaceutical prowess is quite marvelous!”

“Quite marvelous? At such an age? He’s not 30 years old yet, right? Even if he started to learn medicine in his mother’s womb, how marvelous can his pharmaceutical prowess be? Which hospital is he working at now?” All of a sudden, she vented all of her anger that she had held back for a whole day.

Li Maoshuang was stunned.

“He doesn’t work in a hospital.”

“See.”

“Sister, I know you don’t trust him. I was like that too when I first met him. I want to tell you that geniuses exist in this world. Dr. Wang is a genius.”

“Sigh. I think you’re being brainwashed by him.”

“You don’t know. Forget it!” Li Maoshuang originally wanted to tell them that Wang Yao had gone to Jing City. However, judging from the situation, his eldest and youngest sister would not believe him even if he told them about it.

“In short, Father is recovering pretty well. I don’t think it’s necessary for Dr. Wang to come over and treat Father anymore,” his eldest sister said.

“Yes. I think so too.”

“Fine. I won’t trouble him anymore,” Li Maoshuang replied.
