Chapter 157: Chapter 157: That Year_1

The gatekeeper, Mister Gui, first looked perplexed but then seemed to understand.

If he wasn’t mistaken, Mister Mo had already unlocked the patient’s deep consciousness. Whether the patient could wake up or not now depended on whether the family could successfully call back her memories.

With a creak,

the gate opened, and Mister Gui smiled slightly towards the outside and said, "Boss He, Mister Mo invites you in!"

Upon hearing this, He Chen’s body shook, and after his lips quivered for a moment, he hurried forward.

As soon as he entered the room, He Chen threw himself beside the bed.

At that moment, Zhao Yumo on the bed no longer had the past paleness on her face; there was a faint flush of color. Her eyes were still closed, but the pain between her brows had lessened and was now replaced with a touch of confusion—as if a lost child couldn’t find the way home.

He Chen glanced at Mo Han, who nodded at him and said, "I’ve repaired some of the nerves in Miss Zhao’s head. Whether she can wake up now depends on her consciousness."

"Talk to her about some memorable things from the past, like where you went on your first date, the places you’ve been to—it’s best if they’re happy memories, as those are more likely to evoke Miss Zhao’s memories."

As he spoke, he coughed lightly, "Well, let’s step out for a bit."

"Oh," Lin Renxin was the first to agree, following Mo Han out of the room.

Doctor Gui and Gui Ruyun both very much wanted to witness Zhao Yumo’s awakening, but upon deeper consideration, they felt it wasn’t quite appropriate and promptly followed out as well.

Before leaving, Gui Ruyun carefully closed the room door and then suddenly ran up to Mo Han, pouting and asking, "Mister Mo, what exactly was the acupuncture technique you just used?"

"Why did I see a thin layer of purple qi and also feel some warmth?"

At this moment, Doctor Gui walked over with a stern face and said, "Ruyun, how should you speak to Mister Mo?"

"Great talent should be revered. Mister Mo’s medical skills are extraordinary. You should learn from him, not be so impudent!"

"Hurry up and apologize to Mister Mo!"

Gui Ruyun might ignore others’ words, but she had no choice with her grandfather. In this world, her grandfather was her only relative.

She hung her head and said listlessly, "Sorry... I’m sorry."

Mo Han just smiled slightly, as he wasn’t one to take such offense, especially not with a young girl.

"Mister Mo, I, an old man, am puzzled by something. Your technique is very similar to my ’Xue Shibo,’ yet in terms of strength and precision, it’s far superior," Doctor Gui said, rubbing his beard and looking puzzled. "As far as I know, in the whole of Jiuzhou, only my ’Shibo’ can perform Qi-control Needling. How do you know it, and moreover, perform it even better than him?"

In all of Jiuzhou, there were very few doctors who could use Qi-control Needling, and even he and his granddaughter could only barely infuse a thread of true qi into the silver needles.

As for his ’Xue Shibo,’ although he could do Qi-control Needling, it was extremely taxing. He would be utterly exhausted and drenched in sweat after just five minutes.

But Mo Han performed Qi-control Needling with ease, without a hint of paleness on his face, only some sweat forming on his forehead.

At this time, Lin Renxin also joined them. He was more curious about the origins of Mo Han’s acupuncture technique than anyone.

The reason why Miss Wen’s goddaughter and Old Master Tang Guowei were able to survive was all thanks to Mo Han’s extraordinary acupuncture technique.

Once, he had thought Mo Han was a direct disciple of the divine Doctor Xue from Dragon City, but after some investigation, he found out that out of Doctor Xue’s seven disciples, none was called Mo Han, and none were as young as him.

"Doctor Gui, Jiuzhou is vast and teeming with talent. My ability to use Qi-control Needling is not really a skill worth noting," Mo Han said modestly. "Regarding your ’Xue Lao,’ I hold him in high regard, but I’ve never met him."

He evaded the topic of the origins of his technique, which only increased the curiosity of the three Guis.

Meanwhile, silence enveloped the room inside.

He Chen sat by the bed, rubbing Zhao Yumo’s soft hand against his cheek without being able to speak for a while.

After rubbing for several minutes, he finally began slowly, "Yumo, do you remember when we first met?"

"That year, you were 21, just arrived in Jincheng looking for a job. I was 27 and had been driving a black cab on the streets of Jincheng for five years, dabbling in petty criminal activities..."

"Do you remember that day at the train station, when your wallet was stolen, no taxi wanted to take you? You just carried your suitcase and sat crying by the intersection next to the train station."

"Back then, seeing that you were pretty, I thought about taking you to a dance hall to sell you for a good price."

"You were too naive. Thinking you’d met a kind-hearted person, you got into my car..."

"On the way, listening to you talk about memories from school, anecdotes from your hometown, and your boundless longing for this city..."

"For 500 yuan, I sold you to the dance hall, but you struggled fiercely and begged me to help you. I don’t know why, but in that moment, I charged back and rescued you."

"We were chased by more than twenty people armed with long knives and handguns down three streets. Luckily, I knew the area, and we hid behind some abandoned trash cans..."

"That’s how our story slowly began."

"I promised you I’d never drive a black cab again or engage in those petty thefts. I found work as a bricklayer in Jincheng."

"And you became a foreign language teacher at a training center in Jincheng..."

He Chen’s words seemed both like narration and reminiscence.

At times he was laughing, other times crying, recounting the various episodes he had experienced with Zhao Yumo over the years.

On the bed, Zhao Yumo still had her eyes closed, but her fingers began to tremble inexplicably...
