Her voice broke through the atmosphere abruptly.
Lu Xiwei frowned and turned around.
Upon seeing Gu Mang’s face, her pupils constricted and a flash of enmity passed in her eyes.
Coldly, she demanded, “Who are you to criticize us?”
She looked Gu Mang over from head to toe discreetly.
She was wearing clothing brands she couldn’t even identify.
How dare this idiot who appeared out of nowhere criticize her medical expertise?
Gu Mang stuffed both her hands in her pockets and fixed her cool gaze upon the old grandmother.
After three seconds, she said in an insipid tone, “Two days.”
Upon hearing these two simple words fall from Gu Mang’s lips, a weight fell off Lu Shangjin’s mind immediately.
Gu Mang could cure her and seemed confident of it as well.
He looked towards Lu Chengzhou. “Chengzhou, Gu Mang needs two days.”
Lu Chengzhou glanced at Gu Mang.
Her clear, cool eyes exuded a sharp, arrogant confidence.
He asked, “She’ll wake up in two days?”
Granny Lu had been ill for nearly a year. All the greatest experts had gone in and out of the Lu residence, but they could only stabilize her condition.
They were afraid that they could only manage to keep the old grandmother conscious temporarily and force her to stay alive for a while longer.
Gu Mang cocked an eyebrow and said languidly, “One hour to regain consciousness and two days to fully heal.”
Lu Chengzhou’s long almond eyes narrowed.
Fully heal?
Lu Xiwei was seething with anger that Gu Mang did not look at her directly nor answer her question.
Upon hearing such a foolish remark, she sneered, “One hour to regain consciousness and two days to fully heal? Miss, the brain operation will take more than an hour. I wonder how you’re going to heal my grandma.”
“Acupuncture,” Gu Mang replied concisely.
She stood there, with a black backpack hung on her shoulder, and one of her legs crossed over the other. She looked extremely chill.
“Acupuncture?!” Lu Xiwei scoffed coldly. “That’s pseudoscience. That’s going to cure my grandma in two days? Are you joking?”
The military doctors looked at Gu Mang with disdain.
“The patient has been ill for nearly a year and you say that she can be cured in two days? Dear Miss, treating a patient isn’t an easy thing. Even the esteemed and knowledgeable leading brain expert here doesn’t dare to boast like that. What right do you have to make such a bold claim?”
“That’s right, you can try to excel and become famous all you want, but don’t fool around with a human life and harm Matriarch Lu.”
“Using a long abandoned method like acupuncture? What century is it now? Heh.”
“Young people nowadays have no idea how complicated and arduous things are and haven’t learned how to behave properly. They only want to indulge in fantasies of greatness.”
“Ms. Lu is a leading brain expert. You aren’t even known. How dare you question Ms. Lu’s medical decisions? You’re too laughable.”
Each comment was more unkind and cutting than the previous one.
All of them thought that Lu Shangjin brought such a person to this desperate situation only because he had his eyes on the family inheritance.
