Chapter 78: Chapter 78: She Knows Medicine?
Mother Mu lay by the bed, her cries heart-wrenching.
“Chengjin, don’t leave your mother!”
“Wake up, just take a glance at your mother!”
Mother Mu was truly heartbroken; after all, she had only this one son.
The people from the second and third branches of the Mu Family, seeing Mu Chengjin was nearly gone, began to wipe tears in a pretense of sorrow.
The ambulance from Benevolent Heart Hospital had already arrived, and several doctors and nurses went upstairs. Under Zhou Zhiyan’s command, they planned to carry Mu Chengjin to the hospital.
Ming Yao stood beside the bed and glanced over, placing her hand on Mu Chengjin’s wrist to feel his pulse, her delicate eyebrows slightly knitting together.
Mu Chengjin was not suffering from any serious illness but from extreme emotional distress, with internal blood stasis, compounded by recent malnutrition due to excessive hunger leading to fainting.
Ming Yao looked up at Gu Siting, “He’s not in life-threatening danger, but if he’s not treated in time, being taken to the hospital for various checks could delay treatment and actually worsen his condition.”
Gu Siting’s dark pupils narrowed, “You know medical skills?”
“I know a bit, and I’m confident I can cure Young Master Mu.”
Gu Siting didn’t quite believe Ming Yao’s words, for after all, how could a little maid be versed in medicine?
But seeing her speak of Mu Chengjin’s condition with eyes that no longer showed timidity but exuded confidence, the words he had been about to say inexplicably turned into, “I’ll give you ten minutes.”
Gu Siting prevented the other doctors from entering and took out his phone to call a doctor he was familiar with.
Zhou Zhiyan saw that Gu Siting didn’t allow them to go in, but instead let a little maid treat Mu Chengjin, and she said anxiously, “Brother Siting, I know you have a bad impression of me because of the last incident, but now it’s a matter of life and death, you can’t let personal feelings affect professionalism, right?”
Gu Siting’s face was cold, “Shut up. If anything happens to Chengjin, I’ll be responsible!”
Zhou Zhiyan didn’t understand why Gu Siting would rather trust an unremarkable little maid than believe her?
She looked toward Father Mu and Mother Mu, “Uncle, Auntie, Chengjin is in danger because of the medicine the little maid gave him. Are you really at ease letting her treat him?”
At this, Father Mu wanted to burst into the room to drive Ming Yao away.
Gu Siting placed his tall body by the door, his black eyes sweeping sharply toward Father Mu, “Uncle Mu, you can’t go in now.”
Father Mu was furious, “Gu Siting, Chengjin is my son. What right do you have to entrust his life and death to a little maid?”
Unable to enter, Father Mu glared at Mother Mu inside the room, “Aren’t you going to pull that little maid away? Do you want her to harm your son?”
Mother Mu was unsure if Mu Chengjin’s sudden critical condition was related to the bottle of medicine, but the little maid didn’t look like someone who knew medical skills.
Chengjin was her life; she couldn’t bear to see him meeting with the slightest mishap.
Mother Mu tried to pull Ming Yao away, but Ming Yao dodged her, “Madam Mu, if you want your son to be saved, don’t hinder me.”
Mother Mu wasn’t listening to Ming Yao; Zhou Zhiyan was the best doctor in Li City. She insisted on getting Chengjin to the hospital for emergency treatment, which meant his condition must be very serious!
Seeing she couldn’t pull Ming Yao away, Mother Mu suddenly took out a dagger and threatened her, “Move away quickly, or else I won’t be polite!”
Ming Yao paid no attention to Mother Mu, taking out Silver Needle from her bag.
Just as the Silver Needle was about to pierce an acupoint at the back of Mu Chengjin’s neck, Ming Yao’s arm suddenly felt pain.
Mother Mu had slashed a cut on her arm.
Ming Yao furrowed her brow, snatched the dagger from Mother Mu’s hand, and threw it to the ground, her gaze sharp, “Young Master Mu’s condition has everything to do with you!”
