Chapter 1395: Master
Two hours later, Nuannuan kept all of her needles and Second Uncle’s body returned to normal.
“Are you keeping your needles already? There’s still some swelling here, though,” Chi Yang said.
“Second Uncle’s kidneys are already at the end of its flight, after all. He can’t return to normal. In the future, every time his illness relapses, the effectiveness of acupuncture will decrease until he requires a kidney transplant. Therefore, Second Uncle, you must take care not to overexert yourself in the future. The reason this happened this time was that you still forced yourself to work alongside Second Uncle Nangong even though you were already exhausted. In the future, you need to rest more.”
This was already the second time that Nuannuan rescued Chi Zeyao from acute kidney failure. Therefore, Chi Zeyao could no longer muster any form of pride toward his savior. He could only smile and nod. “I understand. It was my fault this time. You clearly gave me this request before, but I didn’t comply. I’m sorry, Nuannuan. I’ve troubled you.”
“Second Uncle, what are you talking about? Helping you is my responsibility. I’m also very happy to be able to help you. Furthermore, you fell sick because you wanted us to eat delicious food. We should be the ones apologizing.”
Chi Yang, who was standing at the side, could not stand it any longer. He said, “We’re a family. We’re in this together, whether fortune or disaster—we will live and die together. There’s no need to be polite.”
Chi Zeyao looked at Chi Yang and smiled sincerely. He patted Chi Yang’s hand. “You’re still the poetic one.”
Chi Yang’s mouth twitched involuntarily, while Nuannuan could not help but burst out laughing.
“Second Uncle, have you found a suitable kidney?”
This was because one kidney was enough for the human body to function normally. As long as the price offered was high enough, it would not be a problem to find a suitable kidney.
“I found five people. These people are completely compatible with my blood. As long as you think they’re suitable, I can go through the surgery at any time.”
Nuannuan nodded. “That’s good.”
“Can I… get up now?”
He did not think it was a good idea to lie down in front of two juniors with his clothes disheveled like this.
“Sure.”
Elder Hong and the group of doctors were worried about Chi Zeyao’s health and were afraid that Nangong Nuannuan would not be able to handle it, so they waited downstairs.
Therefore, when Chi Zeyao came downstairs in a wheelchair, all the doctors were shocked, including Elder Hong, who had witnessed Nangong Nuannuan’s acupuncture before.
“Second Master, do you want to go to the hospital for another detailed checkup?”
Elder Hong took a closer look at Chi Zeyao, who lost his sickly appearance from before, and asked in surprise.
“No need. I believe in Nuannuan’s skills. I’ll go when she asks me to go to the hospital.”
Knowing that his son hated hospitals, the old master immediately said, “If he doesn’t want to go, then so be it. Quick, give him a basic checkup to see if his fever has subsided and if his blood pressure is normal.”
The doctors immediately went forward to perform a basic examination on Chi Ziyao, including his heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature…
After two hours of acupuncture, Chi Zeyao’s heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature returned to normal.
A patient with acute kidney failure was able to recover from his critical condition through acupuncture. Even Elder Hong himself could not believe it, much less the doctors that Elder Hong had brought.
“Miss Nuannuan, your acupuncture technique is truly miraculous! Can… can I be your apprentice?”
Nuannuan was put in a difficult position. “I don’t mind teaching you, but when it comes to acupuncture… It’s just not something everyone can master even if they’re talented.”
