Chapter 201 — Intermittent Psychosis
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Boss, what are you..." Kang Xiaofeng instinctively chose to trust Wei Zhao. He cared deeply for Xiaofen, but instinct told him Wei Zhao would never harm her, and so he felt there must be a reason for everything Wei Zhao did.
"Just a bit of simple acupuncture." Wei Zhao shrugged. "For now she'll settle down and slowly fall asleep. When she wakes, she'll be back to normal."
"Huh? Acupuncture?" Kang Xiaofeng stared at Wei Zhao in disbelief. "Boss, you know acupuncture?"
Not only Kang Xiaofeng; Tang Zhi and Liu Xinlan were staring at Wei Zhao in astonishment too. He actually knew acupuncture?
Song Huiping felt for her daughter's breath and, finding nothing amiss, finally set her heart at ease. Wei Zhao had calmed her daughter with such a simple method, sparing them the need to call for a doctor, saving the medical fees, and sparing her daughter any suffering besides.
Tang Zhi felt that she could no longer see clearly the man before her... If one called him a pampered young master, he did not quite seem to be one, and yet he was even more overbearing than those rich young masters! When he dealt with people, he never went soft.
But he also knew the recipe for the barbecue sauce, and such a thing could not be made by just throwing ingredients together at random. Wei Zhao had needed only a single class period's worth of skill to write it out...
That was not all. Today, at the scene of Lan Zhi's suicide attempt, no one else had noticed Wei Zhao, but Tang Zhi had. Was it he who had helped Kang Xiaofeng catch Lan Zhi?
Before that suspicion had faded, Wei Zhao revealed another formidable skill, his acupuncture technique, and Tang Zhi was forced to reacquaint herself with him... He really was different from those young masters Xiaofen had known before!
And so what if he was different? Tang Zhi scoffed inwardly. Even if he was, she would absolutely never be romantically involved with him. Her first and foremost task was to face the college entrance examination, and she could not afford to be distracted by such things.
Hmph, hmph, little Tang Zhi reminded herself: all of this is merely his outward appearance. Do not be fooled by him, absolutely do not!
Still, the commotion in the room had drawn the attention of the hospital doctors. It was probably the relatives of the other patients in the same ward who had gone to fetch one, and a doctor came running over in haste: "What happened to the patient in bed four?"
"It's all right now, doctor. Sorry to trouble you, it's all right now!" Seeing the doctor arrive, Song Huiping hastily rose and explained.
"It's all right now?" The doctor was taken aback. Had it not been reported that the patient in bed four had suffered a mental breakdown and was in a frenzy?
"This young classmate of mine has already put my daughter to sleep with acupuncture." Fearing the doctor would not believe her, Song Huiping added another explanation.
Hearing this, Wei Zhao groaned inwardly. If you had not explained, it would have been fine; now that you have, things are going to get troublesome!
Sure enough, as soon as the doctor heard Song Huiping's words, his expression changed at once: "Acupuncture? How did you do acupuncture? In a hospital, how can you act so recklessly? What if someone dies?"
"It wasn't reckless... it was just using the needle from an IV drip..." Song Huiping was startled as well and spoke cautiously.
"The needle from an IV drip?" The veins on the doctor's forehead twitched. What kind of doctor was this? A wandering quack? Using an IV needle for acupuncture? What kind of master had taught him that?
