Chapter 42: It's an Illness It Must Be Treated_1


Jiang Chen squatted down, felt the man's pulse, and flipped his eyelids, understanding immediately in his heart. The man had been poisoned, and he took out the Silver Needle ready to start the acupuncture treatment.

"Are you a doctor?" The frantic woman, seeing Jiang Chen's actions, grabbed onto him like a lifeline, "Hurry, save my dad, and if you cure him, I'll give you ten million!"

Jiang Chen frowned, he hadn't volunteered to help for money. The woman grabbing his hand was getting in the way.

"Let go of me." Jiang Chen pulled his hand away, breaking free from her grasp.

The woman staggered from the pull, a flash of anger appeared in her eyes, but she suppressed it immediately.

Jiang Chen's technique was quick, and in a short while, he had inserted four or five needles into the acupoints on the unconscious man's body, stopping the froth that was slightly spewing from the man's mouth.

At this moment, Li Liyun and Xu Yan also squeezed in, and upon seeing Jiang Chen actually saving someone, they spoke without thinking.

Xu Yan's sharp and snide laughter rang out, "Wow! You're quite capable, aren't you? You've been a live-in son-in-law in my house for three years; how come I've never seen you practice medicine?"

Li Liyun was even more disdainful, "Exactly, and carrying Silver Needles with you, what kind of trickery did you learn from to deceive others? Are you planning to put on a full show? Be careful, if something goes wrong and you can't bear the responsibility."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen knew it was these two women, ignored them, and continued the acupuncture.

However, the patient's daughter's face immediately changed, and she grabbed Jiang Chen again, questioning, "Aren't you a doctor?"

Jiang Chen nodded, continuing the acupuncture as he spoke, "I'm indeed not a doctor, but..."

But before he could finish, Xu Yan immediately interrupted, "Haha, what a joke, if he's a doctor, then I'm God."

Li Liyun also added scornfully, "He's nothing but a freeloader at our house, with no job and no skills. Now that I've dumped him, do you think he could be a doctor?"

Upon hearing this, the patient's daughter flared up, shoving Jiang Chen away, "You're not a doctor, stop causing trouble!"

Caught off guard, Jiang Chen fell to the ground, urgently saying, "Don't be ridiculous, your father's condition is very dangerous, he needs immediate treatment!"

"Cough, cough, cough..."

As he was speaking, the patient on the ground suddenly started coughing violently, spitting out some bloodstains.

"Dad!" The patient's daughter was on the verge of tears.

"Oh dear, he's dying, this is maltreatment!" Xu Yan began to pour fuel on the fire.

The people around also shook their heads, looking at Jiang Chen with hostility now.

But Jiang Chen didn't care, he persisted, "Don't be afraid, this is a normal reaction to detoxification, there's just one more needle to go, and then he'll be fine."

"Get lost!" The patient's daughter yelled furiously, pointing at Jiang Chen's nose, "If anything happens to my dad, I'll take your life."

Xu Yan added to the chaos, "Hurry up, call the police and catch him, he's just a swindler."

She and Li Liyun couldn't wait for Jiang Chen to be arrested and jailed, so that they could vent the frustration they had suffered over the past few days.

"Wuwu wuwa—" At that moment, the sound of a siren began to blare, and the ambulance arrived.

"What's wrong with the patient?" At that point, several paramedics rushed over from the ambulance.

"Wow—" Just as the paramedics squatted down, the man suddenly woke up, vomited violently with a heave.

The woman anxiously patted her father's back, frantically asking, "Dad, how do you feel?"

The man waved his hand and said softly, "Much better."

The woman helped the man up, handing him over to the paramedics, "Let's go to the hospital to have a look."

Jiang Chen's expression changed abruptly, and he hastily intercepted, "He can't leave now. I really still have one more needle to administer. The hospital absolutely can't cure his current condition; it would be life-threatening."

"Shut up! You scammer, stop spouting nonsense. If you curse my dad again, I'll kill you!"

The woman, furious, shoved Jiang Chen aside and helped her father into the ambulance.

Jiang Chen watched the ambulance helplessly and shook his head slightly.

Forget it. Although he wanted to save the man, the other party simply didn't believe him. He had done his best. With the acupuncture he had just performed, the man should be able to live a bit longer; hopefully, he would find a cure during this time.

Relying on the hospital was hopeless.

Seeing Jiang Chen's somewhat disappointed expression, Li Liyun and Xu Yan couldn't be happier, as if the indignation from being forced into a divorce had somewhat dissipated.

Li Liyun then sneered, "Jiang Chen, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you've connected with a few decent people? Did you just try to deceive that young lady into a relationship with your tricks? Take a good look at yourself; do you even have what it takes?"

Xu Yan also looked contemptuous, "Exactly. Who knows how much lard we ate to blind ourselves enough to take in a son-in-law like you. You know nothing, yet dare to treat others? Pah, sooner or later, you're going to be the death of yourself!"

This mother and daughter had been holding back their anger for the past few days and had finally found an opportunity to retrieve the face they lost.

Jiang Chen looked at Xu Yan indifferently and smiled faintly, "Whether I know anything or not is not for you to judge. But you, I can certainly say a few words about."

Xu Yan was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"You've been feeling unendingly itchy down there lately, haven't you? There's a lot of discharge, obvious swelling, and you can't sleep at night, right?"

Xu Yan turned rigid, her complexion whitening in disbelief as she looked at Jiang Chen, "How... how do you know?"

Her body had been exhibiting such symptoms these past days, but since the affected area was quite private, she had been too embarrassed to tell anyone.

The bystanders who had heard the conversation between Xu Yan and her daughter initially looked at Jiang Chen with disdain, but after hearing Jiang Chen's words and seeing Xu Yan's reaction, they began to doubt.

"You should go to the hospital to get checked out. You're sick," Jiang Chen responded coolly.

"What sickness?" Xu Yan pressed on.

"Gonorrhea."

Upon hearing this, Li Liyun turned rapidly to look at her mother, her eyes showing disbelief.

"Gonorrhea?!"

"Haha..."

"An old woman with this disease? That's quite promiscuous."

"Just now she was mocking others, only to find that she was the one feeling guilty, knowing that someone could reveal her secret, deliberately belittling the young man."

Upon hearing this, the spectators stared at Xu Yan in amazement, bursting into laughter.

Xu Yan was stunned. Although she was mean, she was definitely not promiscuous.

Jiang Chen then said, "If you caught this disease, it's either you've been fooling around or my former father-in-law has. In my opinion, it must be your husband. He often leaves for weeks at a time, and recently he's disappeared without a trace, hasn't he? Who knows what he's been up to all day outside!"

Having dropped this bombshell, Jiang Chen turned and walked away.

Xu Yan was momentarily stunned, her face suddenly darkened, and she screamed hysterically, "Li Qingde, you bastard! I'm going to castrate you!"
