Chapter 61

Ding Ning only spent two minutes from entering the ward to coming out. After seeing Ding Ning come out, Liu Bocheng's face showed a hint of a cold smile.

"Really quick, I doubt even a divine doctor could be this fast. How about it? Do you want to slip away now?"

Liu Bocheng was extremely displeased that Ding Ning had taken the check, and he couldn't maintain his so-called elegance anymore, mocking without restraint.

Doctor Tom also shook his head slightly, but he had never really expected Ding Ning to have any solution, so he got up to prepare for the electromagnetic therapy for An Xiaoyue's mother.

An Xiaoyue, however, looked at Ding Ning with anticipation. In her view, Ding Ning was the one who sold talismans, and such a person would definitely have a different perspective. Perhaps he really had a solution.

Seeing An Xiaoyue's expectant gaze, Ding Ning said, "Xiaoyue, I've seen your aunt's condition. This illness is complicated, but it can also be simple. If treated with complex methods, it might become even more complicated."

"What about the simple way?" An Xiaoyue couldn't suppress her excitement; Ding Ning's words seemed promising.

"The simple way is very simple. Haven't you seen on TV how comatose patients wake up because of their loved ones' calls? As long as you call out to your aunt with all your heart, she might hear you and wake up."

"Is that all? I've called out to my mother before." An Xiaoyue was somewhat hesitant.

"That was before. Now I'm here, and I'll guide you on the right method."

As he spoke, Ding Ning said to Doctor Tom, "Doctor, please wait a moment. I need to go and wake up Xiaoyue's mother first."

"What did you say?"

Doctor Tom looked at Ding Ning in disbelief. "This is ridiculous, An. I disagree with his opinion. This is sheer nonsense. If you don't need my treatment, I can go back to the United States at any time, rather than staying here to watch a farce that isn't even funny."

Liu Bocheng said sternly, "Xiaoyue, are you going to join this fat man in his nonsense? Doctor Tom is someone many people can't even get to see. Don't be capricious. Go back and sit down, and I'll get rid of this fat man."

Tom even exaggeratedly started to pack his things, trying to pressure An Xiaoyue.

Ding Ning also smiled at An Xiaoyue. No matter what she decided, her mother would get better, but he still wanted to see how she would choose.

An Xiaoyue nodded firmly at Ding Ning and then faced Doctor Tom and Liu Bocheng.

"Doctor Tom, thank you very much for coming from the United States, but you've been treating my mother for four or five days with no improvement. Although you say electromagnetic therapy might work, it carries greater risks. If it fails, my mother might never wake up. I can't take that risk."

"Xiaoyue! Would you rather believe this fat man than science? Electromagnetic therapy has a success rate of 10% to 20%, but what can he do? Pray to God?" Liu Bocheng's face grew even uglier.

"Bocheng, thank you for helping me, but I want to try Ding Ning's method." An Xiaoyue's tone was firm, and she was not swayed by Liu Bocheng's words.

"No! I'm your fiancé, and I must stop your capriciousness!" Liu Bocheng felt uneasy when he saw Ding Ning and didn't want An Xiaoyue to continue.

"That was just my mother's one-sided wish. Please don't mention it. I never agreed to anything with you." An Xiaoyue's face turned red. Although she and Liu Bocheng had nothing going on, she didn't want to say this in front of Ding Ning for some reason.

Tom pretended to pack his things for a while, but An Xiaoyue didn't try to stop him, leaving him at a loss.

If the illness wasn't cured, he wouldn't get his final payment, so he wouldn't leave rashly.

To cover up the awkwardness, he sat down and said, "Fine, I'll let you have your way this time, but if your calling doesn't work, my fee will double."

"What if it does work?" Ding Ning walked to the ward door and looked back at Tom and Liu Bocheng.

Tom said indifferently, "If your calling works, I won't charge you this time and will pack up and go back to the United States."

Liu Bocheng also said fiercely, "Fat man, if you succeed, I'll give up on Xiaoyue."

"Xiaoyue was never yours. Just by using her as a bet, you don't deserve her."

An Xiaoyue felt very displeased when she heard Liu Bocheng's words. Now that Ding Ning had spoken, she felt that this cheap master was quite considerate, and her eyes showed a hint of warmth.

"If you lose, take off your pants and run out from here." Ding Ning came up with a mean idea.

Liu Bocheng said without fear, "No problem, you do the same if you lose."

"Deal."

Ding Ning pulled An Xiaoyue into the ward, followed by Tom and Liu Bocheng.

At the bedside, Ding Ning said to An Xiaoyue, "Hold your mother's hand and call out to her gently, with all your heart."

An Xiaoyue didn't understand but trusted Ding Ning. She held her mother's hand and called out gently.

Ding Ning's divine consciousness scanned An Xiaoyue's mother's head and found that her consciousness had recovered by more than half, and it would take less than a minute to fully recover.

Once her consciousness recovered, her body would also recover, and Ding Ning was sure she would wake up.

An Xiaoyue called out a few times, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Ding Ning gently patted An Xiaoyue's shoulder and said, "Cry, but it's only temporary. You'll soon be smiling happily."

Tom and Liu Bocheng sneered behind them, thinking that the fat man was just stubborn. If this method worked, why would doctors be needed?

"Slowly relax your mother's hand. I think she has already felt your call."

Ding Ning realized the patient was about to wake up and immediately reminded An Xiaoyue.

"Ah! Really? Mom, it's Xiaoyue. Can you hear me?"

An Xiaoyue's mother seemed to have heard her, and her fingers moved slightly.

An Xiaoyue was stunned, unable to believe this was real.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes were about to open!

Tom and Liu Bocheng were dumbfounded, their mouths wide open, watching this incredible scene in disbelief.

"Ah! Mom is waking up! She's really waking up! Ding Ning, look quickly!" An Xiaoyue was so excited she could hardly speak, wanting to hug her mother but afraid that it was an illusion that would shatter with a touch.

"Xiaoyue, you're really amazing. You've woken up your mother." Ding Ning smiled. This was the best outcome. An Xiaoyue would understand something, but it wouldn't draw attention from others, as it wasn't uncommon for comatose patients to wake up.

After about a few dozen seconds, An Xiaoyue's mother finally opened her eyes slightly.

Seemingly unaccustomed to the indoor light, Ding Ning pulled the curtains closed.

"Xiaoyue, what's wrong with Mom? Why do I feel so sore all over? Why are you crying?"

"Nothing... Mom, nothing's wrong. I'm fine... sniff, it's so good."

An Xiaoyue sobbed on the bed, and her mother gently stroked her hair. She was a gentle woman, not panicking but trying to recall.

Ding Ning didn't disturb the touching scene but turned his gaze to Liu Bocheng and Tom.

"Gentlemen, shouldn't we talk outside?"

The matter was settled, and Ding Ning didn't plan to be polite anymore. His eyes, filled with the power of the elements, flashed with a hint of lightning.

Tom and Liu Bocheng shuddered, thinking it was an illusion, but they obediently followed Ding Ning to the guest room.

"I'll pack my things and leave. This is an incredible and terrifying country. I think I'm better suited to living in the normal world."

Tom muttered, but his hands moved quickly. Ding Ning's performance scared him, and he no longer dared to mention the fee.

A few foreigners packed their things in a few minutes and left the hospital in a hurry.

Liu Bocheng also wanted to slip away, but Ding Ning stood in front of him, blocking his way. "Guest from New York, do you want to leave just like that?"

"What do you want?" Liu Bocheng felt guilty.

"Take off your pants!" Ding Ning said bluntly.

"Or... or forget it... I..."

"Take them off or not?"

Ding Ning grabbed Liu Bocheng's collar. If this guy tried to back out, Ding Ning wouldn't mind dealing with him.

"I'll take them off... I'll take them off..."

Ding Ning, being a god of wealth and a cultivator, was not scary when calm, but once he got angry, his aura was overwhelming. Liu Bocheng, not a man of strong will, was trembling and timidly started to take off his pants.

When the pants were down to his knees, he was wearing white briefs with a small butterfly pattern.

Ding Ning frowned; this guy was a pervert.

However, Ding Ning hadn't forgotten his goal of finding the moonstone essence through this guy. He gathered a bit of elemental energy in his hand and touched the back of Liu Bocheng's waist.

This spot was chosen because it's hard for a person to touch their own back. Ding Ning marked him with a spiritual sense and could find Liu Bocheng's location at any time using his elemental energy.

It was like a tracking device.

Just as he touched Liu Bocheng's back, An Xiaoyue helped her mother out of bed and slowly walked to the guest room door.

An Xiaoyue's mother, just adapting to her body, didn't dare to walk fast. But as soon as she stepped out, she saw a fat man grabbing Liu Bocheng's collar and pulling down his pants to his knees. Liu Bocheng was trembling and couldn't resist.

Moreover, the fat man was making a sword gesture behind Liu Bocheng...

She recognized Liu Bocheng and felt dizzy, her body swaying. "Xiaoyue... what's going on?"
