Chapter 68

" Hmm? ... You... How did you know that I've been taking deer antler velvet every day? And... I have indeed been staying up late recently, but it's not really staying up late, because I went on a long trip due to some reasons, and the jet lag has made my sleep irregular."

Zhou Yongfu was surprised in his heart.

As a qualified doctor, it was reasonable to be able to tell that he had been staying up late and had an irregular heartbeat, but he even knew that he had been taking deer antler velvet soup every day!! —— Could all of this be seen just from a pulse diagnosis?!

Seeing Zhou Yongfu's surprised expression, Gao Xi, who was originally preparing to give Chu Nan a good scolding, was also suddenly stunned.

This...??? Did this guy really hit the nail on the head???

Ye Yao also showed a look of surprise... Was what Chu Nan said just now... true? From the reaction of the old Mr. Zhou, it seemed to be really correct!

However, once the surprise began, heaven would inevitably guide even more surprising things to appear, thus achieving a shocking effect. At least at this moment, heaven was completely on Chu Nan's side.

" Young man... What do you think I should do? Isn't deer antler velvet a great tonic?"

Hit right on the mark, Zhou Yongfu instantly had full confidence in Chu Nan.

No matter how great a person is, when they know their life is threatened, they will have a mentality of trying any remedy. Chu Nan's somewhat surprising behavior just now made Zhou Yongfu feel as if he had instantly grabbed a lifeline, his eyes filled with hope.

" Deer antler velvet is indeed a fine tonic, but it is too warm. Taking too much can be very harmful to the body."

" But I only drink a small amount of deer antler velvet in my soup every day, precisely because I'm worried about taking too much."

" It's just self-deception. Each person has a limit to the nutrients they can absorb daily. Exceeding this limit, the body cannot absorb it, and it can cause internal injuries. Moreover... forgive me for being blunt, but at your age, metabolism is already very slow. Taking excessive tonics regularly is not only hard to absorb but also difficult to digest and excrete. I don't know who suggested this to you, but I must say, this person's intelligence is questionable. He almost cost you your life."

After Chu Nan said this, he didn't know that Gao Xi, standing behind him, clearly paused, his face showing obvious embarrassment!

At this moment, Zhou Yongfu also subconsciously glanced at Gao Xi, his eyes filled with complex emotions, unable to express what he felt, but he quickly收回了眼神. Ye Yao, standing beside him, noticed this scene very cleverly. Clearly... the person Chu Nan referred to as having questionable intelligence was standing right behind him.

Seeing Zhou Yongfu so trusting of Chu Nan, Gao Xi couldn't think of a good way to respond for a moment. He could only stand behind Chu Nan like a fool, staring at him with a look that could kill, as if he wanted to peel him alive at any moment.

" Then what you said earlier... that you can cure my illness without surgery, is that true?"

" Yes." Chu Nan nodded affirmatively this time.

" Then what should we do?? Young man, tell me, no matter how much money it costs, as long as you can cure this old man's illness, I will give it to you."

" ...This isn't about money. Sir, a doctor treats patients without regard for their status, which is an unchanging principle in the world. Before your illness is cured, I won't discuss payment or money with you. Your illness requires absolute peace of mind for treatment. Today, I will use acupuncture to help alleviate your symptoms, laying a foundation. In the coming period, I will use fire therapy, water therapy, qi therapy, and herbal therapy to comprehensively treat and adjust your condition. —Of course, the premise is that you trust me and actively cooperate with my treatment. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee that your condition will improve."

" Good! I trust you, young man. Whatever you say, I will follow!" Seizing a glimmer of hope, the old Mr. Zhou's voice was clearly much stronger.

" Now, sir, please lie down flat. I will start with the acupuncture points on your chest." As Chu Nan spoke, he lifted his white coat and opened the cloth bag hanging inside, taking out an acupuncture box.

Ye Yao couldn't help but sweat again... My goodness, this oddball. I thought his personality had changed, and he had taken off that tacky cloth bag, but who knew it was hidden inside his white coat.

If the situation weren't so delicate, she really wanted to say to Chu Nan—humans can't stop you from carrying a bag with you!

" That... young man, do the others need to leave?" After unbuttoning his shirt, Zhou Yongfu looked awkwardly at the four female nurses, including Ye Yao, and the strange creature beside him, who seemed to be red with anger, and asked tentatively.

Chu Nan, however, continued to gently unbutton Zhou Yongfu's shirt, not even looking up as he said, " No need. As a doctor, I treat all patients equally, without regard for gender. If I can't do that, I shouldn't be a doctor."

As he spoke, Chu Nan seemed to suddenly remember something and turned to Gao Xi, saying, " Oh, Doctor Gao, don't be angry. What I said earlier wasn't about you, don't take it to heart."

Hearing this, Gao Xi thought Chu Nan had come to his senses and wanted to make amends, but Chu Nan's next words made him almost spit blood again.

" What I meant is, treat all patients equally, without regard for gender. But... for different species, it's understandable."

I... I f***ing...!!!!!!!!! ——

Gao Xi wanted to kill someone!! Really, he really wanted to pick up the chair beside him and smash it on Chu Nan's head!!

" Oh, right, Doctor Gao, aren't you the most experienced and qualified here?" Chu Nan suddenly said.

Gao Xi was confused again, his anger boiling, but he didn't understand whether Chu Nan was flattering him or had some other purpose. However, since Chu Nan asked, Gao Xi, who was indeed the most experienced and qualified person present, had to seize this opportunity to regain his dignity!

" That's right! Not just here, but in the entire hospital, I am the top Chinese medicine doctor!! So, I'll tell you..."

Before Gao Xi could continue, Chu Nan turned his head, waved his hand at Gao Xi, and said, " Oh, that's good. Go get an alcohol lamp, I need to sterilize the silver needles."

W... What?!

Gao Xi felt that his train of thought had been completely disrupted by Chu Nan's tactics!

Before he could react, Zhou Yongfu, with his pleading eyes and an irresistible tone, said, " Doctor Gao, my condition can't be delayed any longer. Please help me."
