Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Asking the Ghost Doctor to Take Action

Meanwhile, at Nan’s Hospital.

Nan Zhuoyuan had a stern expression as he stood at the doorway of the hospital room, listening to the doctors speak.

"Young Master Nan, it’s not that we don’t want to save the madam, but her injuries are too severe. With our medical skills, there is simply no way to bring her back to consciousness," one doctor explained.

Nan Zhuoyuan’s face grew somber, "Is there really no other way?"

The doctors shook their heads in unison, each with furrowed brows and grim expressions.

Suddenly, there was noise coming from the distant corridor.

Li Xue approached Nan Zhuoyuan and spoke, "Zhuoyuan, Madam Huo has heard of mother’s injuries and has specially summoned the Huo Family doctors and even invited Dean Li of the Traditional Chinese Hospital to come and see her."

Nan Zhuoyuan quickly went up to meet Li Chongbai, "Dean Li, please examine my mother."

Li Chongbai nodded solemnly, "I have already reviewed the madam’s medical data on the way here; let me examine her current physical condition now."

Nan Zhuoyuan led him into the hospital room.

Duan Zhu was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes closed, connected to a ventilator.

Beside the bed, Nan Qingqing sat with swollen eyes, continuously shedding tears, appearing utterly exhausted.

Upon seeing Li Chongbai entering, she stood up immediately, choking up, "Dean Li, please save my mom."

Li Chongbai glanced at her briefly before quickly shifting his focus to Duan Zhu.

"Miss Nan, don’t worry, I will do my best."

He then took Duan Zhu’s hand and began to take her pulse.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the beeping of the ventilator.

It was unclear how much time had passed when Li Chongbai withdrew his hand, stood up, and examined Duan Zhu’s eyes and all her wounds.

His brow furrowed deeply, and he finally spoke slowly.

"This is very peculiar."

At these words, Nan Zhuoyuan looked worriedly at Li Chongbai, "Dean Li, has my mother’s condition worsened?"

Nan Qingqing also looked at Li Chongbai with red eyes.

Li Chongbai shook his head, "Logically, with such severe injuries, it would be impossible for her heart meridian to remain undamaged. On the contrary, her heart meridian is extremely healthy. It is for this reason that she has been able to survive until now; otherwise, she wouldn’t have made it this far."

He took her pulse again and inquired, "Who performed the emergency treatment on her immediately after she was injured?"

Nan Zhuoyuan went blank, "She was in the deep mountains and forests before being brought to the hospital. There was no doctor there... nobody performed any emergency treatment on her."

Li Chongbai asserted firmly, "Impossible!"

He stated confidently, "After the madam was injured, a skilled practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine must have administered emergency treatment and sealed her heart meridian, thereby saving her life temporarily."

Nan Zhuoyuan furrowed his brow and looked back at Nan Qingqing.

"Nan Qingqing, were you present then? Did you see who performed the emergency treatment?"

Nan Qingqing’s pale face shook as she said, "When I led people to find mom, she was lying in a pool of blood, and absolutely no one was helping her. Nan Yu was trying to escape from a cabin."

"Eventually, having nowhere to run, she jumped from the back window down a precipice and died."

Li Chongbai had already heard about this on his way there; the outside world was buzzing with the news that Nan Yu had turned into a murderous offender, severely injuring Sheng Ruomei and Duan Zhu, before jumping off the cliff to her death.

Hearing Nan Qingqing’s account, and considering Duan Zhu’s healthy heart meridian, he felt that something was amiss.

He couldn’t help thinking that Duan Zhu’s survival might actually be thanks to Nan Yu!

But now that Nan Yu was dead, there was no way to verify the truth.

Li Chongbai sighed, "Given the madam’s current condition, this is very tricky. I can only try my best to see what I can do. If we could find the person who administered the first aid, I believe based on their level of medical skill, they would definitely be able to revive her."

Nan Zhuoyuan bit his lip, a rusty taste of blood in his mouth, and his voice deepened, "Then please, Dean Li, take great care in this matter. As for that person, I will have someone look into it."

Li Chongbai nodded, "It’s unfortunate that the Ghost Doctor isn’t here. Otherwise, we could have asked him to treat her, and he would surely cure the madam."

Upon hearing this, a gleam flickered in the depths of Nan Qingqing’s eyes as she lowered her head and meekly said, "Big brother, I know where the Ghost Doctor is; perhaps I could go and plead with him to save mom."
