“Really? Could it be that Young Master Bai actually has a way?”
Ye Jianjie was overjoyed.
“Uncle Ye, we’re all family here. Qingke and I grew up together. How could I joke about something like this?”
As he spoke, Bai Jinghong walked to the bedside and picked up the prepared silver needles.
With the silver needles in hand, Bai Jinghong began to move immediately.
Having received the inheritance, even his needle technique appeared exceptionally professional.
His hand moved in a blur, dazzling the eyes, and nine silver needles popped out from the needle pack as if they were alive!
Such a technique left everyone present dumbfounded!
“Good heavens, Young Master Bai truly hides his talents well!”
“This technique… in all my years of practice, I’ve never seen anything like it.”
“It seems Young Master Bai really has confidence. How shameful, shameful on our part!”
Ye Qingke was also astonished.
She had known Bai Jinghong for a long time. Although their relationship wasn’t that good, she more or less knew his background.
For Bai Jinghong to possess such medical skill truly surprised her.
And at the same time, a little joy rose in her heart. Her grandfather might just be saved.
Zi Yue was even more shocked.
“This… this technique could it be…”
“How is this possible… isn’t this needle art long lost…”
Bai Jinghong twirled the needles in both hands, swept his gaze around, and delayed no longer.
Each silver needle accurately pierced the acupoints, some sinking deep to the hilt, others merely pricking the surface!
First, eight silver needles were inserted into eight acupoints!
Then, his fingertip lightly gathered, and the last silver needle seemed to glow with a dark light.
In the next moment, Bai Jinghong’s fingertip flicked, and the ninth needle stabbed directly towards the Guanchong acupoint!
Using the method of locking acupoints with silver needles, Bai Jinghong forced the toxins in the blood towards the Guanchong acupoint at the fingertip!
Drop by drop of nearly transparent liquid fell into the container Bai Jinghong had prepared.
Ye Hongjun’s previously weakened body trembled, his face contorted in a frown, clearly enduring immense pain!
Three minutes later, the blood seeping from Ye Hongjun’s fingertip had returned to a normal color, and Bai Jinghong finally withdrew his hand.
He stood up and nodded towards Ye Jianjie and Ye Qingke.
“Is… is it done?”
This was the question in everyone’s mind.
“In a few more minutes, the Old Master will wake up!”
Ye Jianjie’s impression of Bai Jinghong was completely refreshed.
His heart was full of excitement.
Hearing Bai Jinghong say the Old Master would wake up in a few minutes,
Chen Lin absolutely did not believe it.
“Impossible, how could he possibly know how to treat illness?”
Saying this, Chen Lin walked up and placed his hand on Ye Hongjun’s pulse.
He couldn’t treat illness, but he had learned a bit about pulse-reading from Zi Yue.
If the toxins were cleared from a poisoned person, the pulse would return to normal.
Conversely, the pulse would still be erratic.
The next second, a joyful expression appeared on Chen Lin’s face. He pointed at Bai Jinghong and raged: “You’ve all been deceived by him!”
At these words, everyone looked uniformly at Chen Lin.
“Bai Jinghong, you’ve got some nerve! This is a deliberate attempt to murder Elder Ye!”
“The Old Master’s pulse is erratic, clearly even more serious than before!”
The moment he said this, the scene fell deathly silent.
Everyone turned to look at Bai Jinghong again.
Bai Jinghong curled his lip, very disdainful, mouthing the word “Idiot.”
Chen Lin snorted coldly and said to Ye Jianjie: “Head of the Ye Family, he’s treating human life with contempt. He cannot be let off!”
Several other expert doctors were also curious and hurried up to check the pulse.
After feeling it for a moment and examining up and down, they couldn’t help but praise him.
“A miracle, simply a miracle!”
“Head of the Ye Family, congratulations. The Old Master’s pulse has returned to normal, even more vigorous than an ordinary person’s!”
They were all filled with admiration for Bai Jinghong.
In just a few minutes, he had revitalized a person with failing organs on the verge of death, making him full of life and vigor again!
Even bringing the dying back to life or mending white bones was nothing more than this.
Chen Lin was stupefied. Were these doctors planted by Bai?
Thus, Chen Lin went to feel the pulse again.
Fuck… Chen Lin was dumbfounded. It really had returned to normal. It wasn’t like this just now!
“Impossible, impossible!” Chen Lin couldn’t believe it.
“What’s impossible? Don’t you think I can tell it’s recovered?”
“You, sir, have an unrighteous heart. Young Master Bai sought no reward for saving the patient, yet you wronged him. You’re utterly despicable!”
“Exactly! Could you do it? You even read the pulse wrong. What are you showing off here for?”
Chen Lin’s face drastically changed, turning ashen with frustration.
In fact, Chen Lin’s pulse reading wasn’t wrong; it’s just that the pulse was inherently chaotic right after the toxins were forced out.
Chen Lin was simply too eager to pin the blame on Bai Jinghong.
He looked towards Zi Yue.
But Zi Yue could only shake her head helplessly.
At this moment, Chen Lin recognized reality. Bai Jinghong had actually cured him?
“Cough, cough, cough…”
From the sickbed, a few coughs sounded, and Ye Hongjun indeed opened his eyes.
“Grandpa…”
“Dad…”
The Ye family swarmed around, surrounding the sickbed, their faces full of joy.
“Everyone’s here? I’m old. This day was bound to come!” Ye Hongjun thought he was still terminally ill.
But inexplicably, he felt very relaxed.
“Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? It was Jinghong. Jinghong cured your illness. You’re fine now!”
Ye Jianjie was overjoyed.
“What? Jinghong? The Bai family’s boy?”
“Yes, Grandpa, it was Brother Jinghong!”
Ye Qingke felt gratitude towards Bai Jinghong in her heart, and directly called him Brother Jinghong.
This was a form of address only used in their childhood. Ever since Bai Jinghong peeked at her bathing, even that form of address had disappeared.
They’d pretend not to know each other when they met.
Bai Jinghong also wanted to laugh. “This girl really dug deep to find that address again.”
Chen Lin’s face turned green.
Damn it. Bai Jinghong had ruined his good deed again.
Originally, the person the Ye family should be grateful to right now was him, him!!!
Now, not only had he failed to cure the illness, he was instead treated like a clown.
The doctors and Ye family members who couldn’t stand it any longer also started targeting Chen Lin.
“You there, crooked mouth, weren’t you the one who said if Young Master Bai cured the illness, you’d kneel and kowtow to him?”
“Now you can make good on that.”
The crowd was filled with righteous indignation.
This bastard, incompetent himself, yet he dared to wrong Young Master Bai. Too much of a bully.
“Hey? Yeah, he proposed it himself.”
Veins bulged on Chen Lin’s forehead, his fists clenched until they cracked.
Make him kneel to Bai Jinghong? Dream on!
Unless he was dead!
Unable to secure the Ye family’s favor, Chen Lin immediately decided to cut his losses and turned to leave.
“Don’t you run, you piece of trash! Going back on your word, are you?”
“Your own bet, don’t you dare honor it? Can’t afford to lose, huh?”
“Trash! Good-for-nothing!”
The mocking sounds were incessant. Chen Lin nearly erupted.
But he still chose to endure!
Even if he couldn’t befriend the Ye family, he absolutely could not lash out and offend them.
Otherwise, the loss would outweigh the gain.
Zi Yue shook her head and followed him out.
Bai Jinghong didn’t stop them. He still had things to do and couldn’t be bothered to play these childish games with Chen Lin.
Even after Chen Lin left the house, the curses and discussions didn’t stop.
“Bai Jinghong, I want you dead, I want your whole family dead…” Chen Lin gnashed his teeth.
Zi Yue, seeing this, said nothing more.
She seemed to feel that this leader, the War God Hades, was very lacking, like someone from kindergarten.
About a minute after Chen Lin left, Bai Jinghong suddenly said, “You doctors, leave for now!”
“I have words for the Ye family!”
The doctors naturally dared not disobey Bai Jinghong, and they all left, closing the room door behind them.
“Young Master Bai, is it about dietary restrictions to be careful of?”
The Ye family members asked.
Bai Jinghong shook his head and walked to the bedside table, picking up the transparent, viscous liquid that had been extracted from the Old Master’s blood earlier.
“I already told you, the Old Master was poisoned. And this kind of poison is very rare. The poisoner was scheming and deeply malicious.”
“The reason I made the doctors leave and kept only the Ye family is because I don’t wish to air the Ye family’s dirty laundry in public.”
This sentence shocked the Ye family.
The meaning in Bai Jinghong’s words was clear enough: it was someone in the family who poisoned him!
