As time passed, Wu Potian's body swayed more and more violently, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably. At this moment, a voice in his mind kept warning him: "Wu Potian! This patient's illness is beyond your ability to cure. You should give up quickly!"
Hearing this voice, Wu Potian's hands, which were holding the needles, involuntarily slowed down. At this moment, he really wanted to give up, but thinking of his dream and the fact that this patient was the first one he had ever treated, he could not bear to watch the patient die. Suddenly, he shouted loudly in his mind: "Shut up! I absolutely will not give up."
Wu Potian's loud shout made the voice in his mind instantly disappear. He felt a surge of energy, and a cool breath instantly flowed into his limbs, filling his weak legs with vitality. His swaying body slowly steadied, and his sluggish hands gradually returned to normal.
It wasn't until Wu Potian felt through the silver needles that all the blood clots in the patient's brain had been cleared that he removed all the needles from the patient's brain. Turning to announce the successful treatment to the people outside the observation room, he suddenly felt a darkening in his vision, his feet slipped, and he collapsed unconscious.
Seeing Wu Potian finally complete the treatment, Qiu Jinbo, who had been on tenterhooks, finally relaxed. Thinking about the harrowing process of Wu Potian saving the patient, Qiu Jinbo's mind was filled with many questions, and he was eager to ask Wu Potian. However, before he could reach the ICU ward door, he saw Wu Potian suddenly collapse in the ward.
Seeing Wu Potian collapse, Qiu Jinbo's face immediately changed. Concerned for Wu Potian's safety, he nervously opened the ward door. A foul smell immediately hit him, almost causing him to suffocate, but because he was worried about Wu Potian, he quickly held his breath and rushed into the ward.
As Qiu Jinbo rushed into the ward, the others also arrived at the ward door. The foul smell in the ward immediately made everyone instinctively gasp and cover their noses, hesitating to enter the ward.
After rushing into the ward, Qiu Jinbo quickly supported the unconscious Wu Potian, holding his pulse and anxiously shouting, "Potian! Wake up!"
After feeling Wu Potian's pulse and confirming that he was only exhausted and unconscious, Qiu Jinbo finally relaxed. Using all his strength, he helped Wu Potian up and shouted to the people standing at the door, "Quick, someone help me get Potian to rest."
Hearing Qiu Jinbo's words, the Zhang siblings and the hospital experts outside the ward finally realized that Wu Potian had collapsed. Although they were puzzled by his collapse, they suspected it was related to the treatment.
Zhang Qiming, concerned for his father's safety, didn't know if Wu Potian had successfully saved his father, but Wu Potian was his only hope. He immediately instructed Chen Zengguang, "Xiao Chen! Arrange for someone to take Xiao Wu to a ward to rest."
Before Zhang Qiming could finish speaking, he heard a familiar cough from the bed and quickly looked towards the ward. Seeing his father's eyes wide open, he emotionally added, "Get the best doctors and nurses to take care of Xiao Wu."
Saying this, Zhang Qiming immediately walked towards the ward, his voice choked with emotion, and softly asked the patient, "Dad! You're awake, you're finally awake."
"Dad! You're finally awake, that's great, sob, sob, sob." Seeing her father awake, Zhang Qifang couldn't help but sob softly.
Hearing the calls from the Zhang siblings, the patient slowly turned his head, looking at them with a puzzled expression and asked, "Who are you? Why am I here?"
Hearing the patient's question, Zhang Qiming, who was happy about his father's recovery, suddenly froze, and anxiously replied, "Dad! It's me, Qiming! Your eldest son! What's wrong, Dad?"
"Dad! What's wrong? I'm your daughter, Qifang! Why don't you remember us?" Zhang Qifang, seeing that her father didn't recognize them, immediately panicked, tightly gripping the patient's wrist and emotionally asked Zhang Qiming, "Brother! What's wrong with Dad? Why doesn't he remember us? Get the doctor to check on Dad."
In the eyes of the brain specialists at the People's Hospital, the patient not only had no chance of waking up but also had very little time left. They didn't question Wu Potian's medical skills mainly because they wanted him to take the blame. This way, even if the patient died, it would have nothing to do with them.
However, the patient's recovery completely stunned these experts. They couldn't believe that Wu Potian could wake the patient up with just acupuncture. This situation far exceeded their medical knowledge. If it weren't for the Zhang siblings surrounding the ward, the experts would have immediately rushed over to examine the patient.
Hearing Zhang Qifang's words, the experts, eager to resolve their doubts, didn't wait for Zhang Qiming's instructions and immediately rushed to the patient's bedside to conduct an examination.
"This is simply incredible, a medical miracle," one expert said in shock after examining the patient, not realizing the setting and speaking to himself in amazement.
Hearing the expert's exclamation, Zhang Qifang, who was concerned about her father's condition, immediately lost her temper. She slapped the expert and angrily roared, "You bastard, what's wrong with my father? You're gloating, I'll beat you to death."
Although Zhang Qiming didn't understand why his father didn't remember them, his father's recovery confirmed his earlier judgment. Thinking about Zhang Qifang's behavior that morning, which had delayed treatment for their father, and her continued self-centered actions, he was very angry. He angrily scolded Zhang Qifang, "Zhang Qifang! This is a hospital, not your home. You're being too much. Apologize to Professor Xiao immediately, or leave right now."
In fact, Zhang Qifang had already regretted her actions that morning when her father was saved by Wu Potian. However, old habits die hard, and in her concern for her father, she quickly forgot her earlier mistake and instinctively slapped Professor Xiao. It wasn't until Zhang Qiming scolded her that she realized her mistake.
If it were earlier, she would never have apologized, but the lesson was fresh in her mind. Under Zhang Qiming's pressure, she finally lowered her proud head and reluctantly apologized to Professor Xiao, "Professor Xiao, I'm sorry!"
Zhang Qifang's slap made Professor Xiao extremely angry. If it were any other day, he would have called the police, but since she was Zhang Qiming's sister, he could only suppress his anger and act as if nothing had happened. He replied, "Director Zhang, this isn't Ms. Zhang's fault. I was too excited. After examining your father, I found that his condition is improving. As for why he has lost his memory, it might be related to brain atrophy. I suggest we do a CT scan later."
