But what no one expected was that after the third silver needle was inserted, the little boy immediately began foaming at the mouth, convulsing all over, and his face turned as pale as a corpse.

At the same time, the monitoring equipment at the bedside emitted a shrill alarm, his blood pressure dropped, and his heart rate rapidly slowed down, clearly indicating a life-threatening condition.

Seeing the scene before him, Xie Haitao was stunned, and the fourth silver needle in his hand no longer had the courage to be inserted.

Dong Tianda angrily said, "What the hell is going on? Do you even know how to treat people? How could you treat my son like this?"

Zhou Yongliang also said nervously, "Doctor Xie, what’s happening? Did you see this when you treated the previous case?"

"Director, I... I..."

Xie Haitao was drenched in cold sweat, so flustered that he couldn’t speak, and had no idea what was happening.

He clearly remembered that Ye Bufan treated the little boy this way, so why wasn’t it working for him, and instead, it worsened the condition?

Seeing his son’s condition becoming more critical, Dong Tianda roared, "Stop your nonsense and treat my son immediately."

"Yeah, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and save him!"

Ma Haidong was also extremely anxious. If Xie Haitao really killed Dong Tianda’s son, he would probably lose his position as the hospital director.

In desperation, Xie Haitao pulled out all three inserted silver needles, but the little boy’s condition did not improve at all.

Dong Tianda was so anxious that he was jumping up and down, "Xie, I only have this one son. If anything happens to him, I’ll kill you."

Zhou Yongliang angrily said, "Xie Haitao, you just cured a patient, why can’t you do it now?"

"I... I..."

Xie Haitao was drenched in cold sweat, stammering for a long time without being able to say a complete sentence.

Ma Haidong felt something was wrong and said to Zhang Xiaoman, "What’s going on?"

Zhang Xiaoman hesitated for a moment and finally said, "The one who cured that child wasn’t Doctor Xie, but the patient’s family member, Ye Bufan, outside."

Seeing that the truth was completely exposed, Xie Haitao’s legs gave out, and he collapsed to the ground.

Upon learning the truth, Dong Tianda immediately rushed out of the emergency room. Now, whoever could save his son would do.

Rushing to Ye Bufan, he said urgently, "Young man, please save my son. Any conditions you set are fine."

"Alright."

Ye Bufan was not surprised by this outcome, and the little boy’s condition was urgent, so he couldn’t delay any longer.

He asked Ouyang Lan to go back and rest, then followed Dong Tianda into the emergency room.

After entering, he glanced at the collapsed Xie Haitao, went to the little boy’s bedside, and began the acupuncture treatment.

The monitoring equipment at the bedside had been continuously emitting a shrill alarm, but as the silver needles were inserted one by one, the alarms stopped.

At the same time, the little boy stopped convulsing and foaming at the mouth, his face gradually regained its color, and his breathing stabilized.

This was the second time treating such a case, and Ye Bufan was already experienced. He quickly pricked the little boy’s fingertip and squeezed out two drops of toxic blood.

When he withdrew the silver needles, all the monitoring equipment data returned to normal, and the little boy opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

"Miracle doctor! Truly a miracle doctor!" Dong Tianda said, holding Ye Bufan’s hand, "Young doctor, our Dong family has been a single line for three generations. Saving my son means saving our entire family.

Our Dong family is not short of restaurants. My brother just built a large restaurant, and I’ll give it to you as payment. I’ll handle the transfer procedures for you right away."

Although Ye Bufan was once just a poor boy, he had inherited the ancient medical school’s knowledge and was not surprised by Dong Tianda’s actions. After all, no amount of money could compare to a life.

The ancient medical school had once received a city as payment for treating someone.

Seeing that he had earned a restaurant with just one treatment, Zhou Yongliang and Ma Haidong’s eyes were filled with envy.

Dong Tianda was a shrewd businessman, and his actions were not impulsive.

Being able to befriend a miracle doctor meant having an extra life in critical times, as no amount of money could be enjoyed without a life.

In his view, simply offering money was not enough to befriend someone like Ye Bufan, so he made this grand gesture.

Seeing Ye Bufan’s calm expression, he was even more convinced of his decision.

He left Ye Bufan’s phone number and then handed him a business card, saying, "Young brother, if you need anything, just call me."

After repeatedly expressing his gratitude, Dong Tianda left with his child. Soon, other patients brought their children to Jiangnan Hospital, and they were all treated by Ye Bufan.

Seeing the last sick child treated, Zhou Yongliang sighed in relief. This incident had a significant impact in Jiangnan City, and the city’s higher-ups were paying attention.

Now that Jiangnan Hospital had successfully treated all the infected children, it had earned him a lot of face.

"Xiao Ye, you’ve really helped me a lot this time. If you need any help, just let me know."

Ye Bufan put away the silver needles and glanced at Xie Haitao, saying, "Director Zhou, I do have something I need your help with."

Zhou Yongliang said, "Just tell me what you need."

Seemingly sensing what Ye Bufan was about to say, Xie Haitao looked at him with a pleading expression.

But Ye Bufan didn’t even look at him, taking out the billing details and saying, "Director Zhou, Director Ma, this is the billing details for the treatment my mother received.

My mother was admitted here last night, and it hasn’t even been 24 hours, yet the bill is 39,800 yuan.

She clearly had a severe cerebral hemorrhage, but the medication list includes anticoagulants and heart disease treatments, and it’s almost as if they included erectile dysfunction drugs.

There’s also the intravenous fluids, which add up to at least 25 kilograms. Even a cow would struggle with that much.

I still owe the hospital over 30,000 yuan in medical fees. What do you think should be done?"

Both Zhou Yongliang and Ma Haidong, who came from the medical field, immediately saw the discrepancies in the billing details.

"Damn it, what have you done!" Ma Haidong grabbed the billing voucher and threw it at Xie Haitao’s face, "You just faked it and claimed credit for Ye Xiaobrother’s work, and now you’re doing all this nonsense.

You don’t deserve to be a doctor. From now on, you’re fired."

Xie Haitao was completely stunned, pleading, "Director, please, give me another chance. I won’t do it again."

Ye Bufan said, "Director Ma, this kind of private inclusion of drugs and overcharging is illegal, I think it should be handed over to the police.

And it’s not just this time; there must have been many others. We need to investigate thoroughly."

Zhou Yongliang said, "Xiao Ye is right. This person is a cancer in the medical field, and doctors’ reputations are being ruined by people like him. We must investigate thoroughly and hand him over to the police."
