"Aunt Xiuzhi, I need to proceed with the acupuncture, and that step cannot be avoided. I hope you understand." After Li Sihai left, Chen Yang said to Chen Xiuzhi.
Fortunately, Chen Xiuzhi was quite open-minded and didn’t say much, just nodded in agreent.
"Divine Doctor Chen, I understand. Do what you have to do. In the hospital, there’s no distinction between male and female, it’s all the sa," Chen Xiuzhi said.
"Alright."
Since Chen Xiuzhi had said so, Chen Yang had no more hesitations and turned to give Wang Hong a look.
Wang Hong understood imdiately and helped to remove the woman’s clothes.
Once the acupuncture points were exposed, Chen Yang took out the silver needle and began the procedure.
This congenital heart issue isn’t actually difficult to handle, at least for him.
But the process requires extre caution.
He carefully inserted the needles, ensuring each one was precisely in the key position, with no deviation at all.
The entire process lasted about ten to twenty minutes.
At first, Li Xuei, who was lying on the bed, showed no reaction at all.
But as more needles were inserted, her body began to react.
First, she started sweating, then her breathing beca rapid, and finally, her whole body started trembling uncontrollably.
"So... uncomfortable!!"
Li Xuei began to struggle with the changes in her body and cried out in pain.
"What’s... going on here?" Chen Xiuzhi got up anxiously upon hearing her daughter’s painful voice.
"Her condition is congenital muscle atrophy of the heart. To completely cure it, we must forcefully stimulate the atrophied muscles to expand again. This is a very normal reaction and will pass," Chen Yang calmly answered and continued with the acupuncture.
As his silver needles continued to insert, Li Xuei’s cries of pain grew even more intense.
Listening to this, Chen Xiuzhi felt heartbroken.
Fortunately, this situation didn’t last long. After about four or five minutes and a loud cry of pain, her atrophied muscles finally sprang back to life!
After letting out a scream, she fell straight down and fainted!
"Yang Zi! This..."
Li Xuei’s intense reaction tugged at Chen Xiuzhi’s heart. Even Wang Hong, who had great trust in Chen Yang, felt her heart skip a beat, fearing sothing might go wrong.
But Chen Yang appeared completely relaxed.
"It’s cured. The fainting is temporary. After drinking the prescribed dicine, she should wake up in less than an hour," Chen Yang said with a smile.
"She can wake up in an hour? That fast?"
A hint of delight flashed in Wang Hong’s eyes.
"Yes, at most an hour. It’s also possible for her to wake up in half an hour," Chen Yang nodded seriously and said.
"Aunt Xiuzhi, did you hear what Chen Yang said? She’ll wake up at most in an hour," Wang Hong couldn’t help but excitedly turn to tell Chen Xiuzhi.
Chen Xiuzhi was montarily stunned.
Because her emotions were too complex.
First, she felt the joy of hearing that Chen Yang could save her, then the worry over Li Xuei’s painful screams, and now once again joy!
The mix of complex emotions left her face expressionless.
"Good, good. Thank you so much, Divine Doctor Chen. If my daughter gets better, you will be my benefactor," Chen Xiuzhi repeatedly nodded, looking at Chen Yang with full gratitude.
Chen Yang just smiled without saying anything.
The three of them waited in the room for a few minutes. Once the herbal dicine had boiled, Chen Yang instructed Xiuzhi to pour it out and give it to Li Xuei.
Over the years, she had been administering dicine to Li Xuei, so she was very experienced.
Hearing that Chen Yang said it was ti to administer the dicine, she quickly poured out the liquid, blew it slightly to cool it down, and fed it to the unconscious Li Xuei.
"Divine Doctor, is there anything else?"
Seeing Li Xuei had no response after taking the dicine, Chen Xiuzhi turned her head to Chen Yang.
"Step aside, let remove the needles," Chen Yang said.
"Okay, okay."
Chen Xiuzhi quickly moved aside to let Chen Yang remove the needles.
Once Chen Yang removed all the needles, Wang Hong imdiately stepped forward to help dress Li Xuei.
"Now we just have to wait. She should wake up soon," Chen Yang said after completing everything.
"Alright, can I call her father in now?" Chen Xiuzhi asked.
With the treatnt process over and Li Xuei dressed, there was no reason to stop Li Sihai from coming in.
"Yes."
Chen Yang nodded calmly, and then Chen Xiuzhi quickly went to open the door.
Outside, Li Sihai was extrely anxious.
Since he could hear his daughter’s painful cries but couldn’t see anything from outside, he was naturally worried sick.
When he saw the door open, he imdiately asked Chen Xiuzhi nervously, "How is it? What’s the situation? Is Xuei okay now?"
"Divine Doctor Chen said it’s cured, but Xuei is still unconscious," Chen Xiuzhi replied.
Upon hearing this, Li Sihai didn’t ask for any more details and quickly entered the room to check on Li Xuei.
Li Xuei lay on the bed with a serene expression.
Although her face looked unchanged from before, it could be felt that her breathing rhythm was much steadier, at least not as labored as before.
"Chen Yang, is my daughter’s condition really cured now?" Li Sihai looked at her and raised his head to Chen Yang in doubt.
"Yes, it’s cured. The recovery isn’t imdiate, but once she wakes up, everything will improve," Chen Yang seriously nodded and said.
Li Sihai’s mind was uneasy, but he said nothing and quietly waited.
The four of them stood by the bed, waiting for about five or six minutes. Li Xuei slowly opened her eyes and woke up.
Her body also underwent a significant change at that mont.
It was as if a flood of vitality surged from within her.
Her originally sallow face improved instantly, even becoming a bit rosy.
"Xuei!"
Seeing this, Li Sihai and Chen Xiuzhi were overjoyed and quickly rushed over.
"Mom and Dad..." Li Xuei, after waking up, although her complexion greatly improved, was extrely exhausted, and she spoke as if she hadn’t much strength.
"Xuei, how are you feeling now? Is your body more comfortable? Does it feel as bad as before?" Li Sihai asked with genuine concern.
Li Xuei shook her head, "Dad, my body feels much better, but I’m really tired and want to sleep, rest."
"Huh?" Li Sihai was taken aback by her words, then turned to look back at Chen Yang, as if asking what was going on.
"The treatnt just now indeed consud a lot of her energy. Feeling tired is normal; a good sleep will resolve it," Chen Yang explained.
"Oh, I see." Li Sihai nodded repeatedly and quickly told Li Xuei to have a good rest.
"Mm."
Li Xuei wanted to properly thank Chen Yang, but she was too exhausted. In the end, she didn’t utter words of gratitude, and after just giving Chen Yang a grateful look, she fell into a deep sleep.
