Chapter 10: Chapter 10: I Won't Go!
It didn't take long for Wu Changtian to make Tan Yuying bruised and battered, and what frustrated him the most was that he couldn't fight back at all.
Although Li Tianwei was somewhat calmer, his teeth-gritting expression looked like he wanted nothing more than to flay the bastard alive.
Wu Changtian, holding his face and on the verge of tears, caught Li Tianwei's murderous gaze and hastily said, "I... I'll just reinsert the Silver Needle."
Despite being a surgical director, he had some skill in Acupuncture Techniques, and believed that reinserting the Silver Needle into the correct acupoints would improve President Li's son's condition.
But reality played a cruel joke on him.
After he inserted the Silver Needle back into its original acupoints, President Li's son showed no signs of improvement; instead, his condition worsened visibly, with blood spilling from his mouth and even his nostrils bleeding.
It was all over, over!
Wu Changtian was sweating profusely; his hands shook more and more violently. What the hell was going on? The same act of needling, why did Ye Haochuan see results and he did not?
That's when a nurse suddenly said, "It looks like we'll have to call Doctor Ye."
Li Tianwei snapped to his senses and barked at Wu Changtian, "You quack, what are you freezing for? Hurry up and call Doctor Ye! If you can't get Doctor Ye here, I'll kill you!"
He knew very well that he and his wife had gone too far just now and had hurt Doctor Ye's feelings. If he and his wife went to call him, with Doctor Ye's pride, he definitely wouldn't come.
Besides, what was his and his wife's status? Going to invite a Nameless doctor would only lower their own worth if word got out.
"Yes, I'll go call him right now." Wu Changtian was scared out of his wits, feeling incredibly humiliated as well. Since when had he ever been called a quack?
At this very moment, in Ye Haochuan's dormitory.
With the help of Kou Jing and Han Xue'er, Ye Haochuan sat up at the head of the bed and began to meditate and regulate his breath. The Longevity Technique was truly mystical; in just a few minutes, the previously listless Ye Haochuan gradually regained his vibrancy and hopped off the bed.
Kou Jing and Han Xue'er were greatly surprised.
Kou Jing asked, "What's your secret? How did you recover so quickly?"
Ye Haochuan chuckled, "Of course, it's all about the art of health preservation. As medical practitioners, how can we not understand health preservation?"
Han Xue'er, infatuated, said, "Doctor Ye looks so capable, and I want to learn too. To stay forever young—Doctor Ye, could you teach me?"
Before Ye Haochuan could answer, Kou Jing shook her head and said, "Xue'er, there are plenty of health preservation methods out there, and you can find them on the internet. There's no need to ask him to teach you."
Ye Haochuan wasn't pleased and said, "Doctor Kou, I don't like the sound of that. My method of health preservation is not something you can compare to those on the internet. It not only helps maintain youth, but it also nourishes the skin, and it can even treat menstrual irregularities and abnormal vaginal discharge..."
Kou Jing flushed, feeling embarrassed. What nonsense was he talking about? No way she'd believe it!
But Han Xue'er took Ye Haochuan's words as gospel, coaxingly said, "Doctor Ye, why not just teach me your method of health preservation?"
"Teaching you is fine, but what's in it for me?" Ye Haochuan grinned mischievously.
"I... I could just pay you," Han Xue'er said coquettishly.
"Don't talk to Brother about money, talking about money hurts feelings," Ye Haochuan said with firm righteousness.
Han Xue'er clapped her hands with joy, "Not talking about money is good, not talking about money is good, I knew Doctor Ye is the best."
"We might not discuss money, but we can talk about affection, right? So how about it, just call out 'Brother Ye' for me to hear," Ye Haochuan let his true colors show.
"Doctor Ye, you're so naughty, I don't want to call you 'brother'," Han Xue'er said, her face blushing.
Kou Jing, listening to the conversation, saw her recently formed good impression of Ye Haochuan vanish completely. What a lecher—he was really bad. Now making Xue'er call him 'brother,' and who knows what more embarrassing things he might ask for later.
For a moment, shameless! Faceless! Libertine!... all kinds of words were silently uttered in her mind.
"Hey, calling me 'Brother Ye' isn't so bad, you know. At the very least, 'Brother Ye' can make sure you don't get your period for ten months," Ye Haochuan said with an ill-intentioned look.
"Really? Can it really stop my period for ten months?" Han Xue'er asked doubtfully.
"Of course!"
But Kou Jing could tell what Ye Haochuan meant, and she was so angry that she ground her teeth. This pervert was simply too shameless.
"Xue'er, don't listen to him, he's taking advantage of you..." As she spoke, Kou Jing revealed Ye Haochuan's intentions.
"Ah!" It was then that Han Xue'er understood. This big pervert wanted her to get pregnant. If she got pregnant, wouldn't she miss her period for ten months? Gosh, this pervert was too bad, utterly rotten to the core.
For a moment, she became even more embarrassed and annoyed, her little head almost drooping to her prominent breasts.
However, this shy demeanor was truly heart-stirring and incredibly tempting.
"Xue'er, let's go. Doctor Ye needs to rest well," Kou Jing thought they couldn't stay any longer. Ye Haochuan was too despicable, so she found an excuse to leave.
"Oh," Han Xue'er obediently responded.
Seeing the situation, Ye Haochuan knew Kou Jing had something against him, so he deliberately smiled and said, "That's fine, I'd like some peace and quiet..."
Under normal circumstances, this would have been an ordinary statement, but he was not only staring directly at Kou Jing when he spoke, but his tone was also peculiar. With Director Wu having caused a scene previously, how could Kou Jing not know he was implying something about her?
"You..."
"What's wrong, Doctor Kou, can't I wish for some peace and quiet?"
"Such a slick talker!"
Kou Jing was so angry her face turned red. She didn't want to stay here another moment, opened the door, and prepared to leave with Han Xue'er.
Just at that moment, Wu Changtian arrived out of breath. Seeing Kou Jing and Han Xue'er's embarrassed appearances, he thought Ye Haochuan had taken advantage of them and was immediately furious.
However, he had to deal with President Li's situation first; otherwise, he could kiss his position as director goodbye. Without the title, how could he pursue Kou Jing, this icy beauty?
"Ye Haochuan, President Li's son's condition has worsened, hurry and come to the operating room with me..." Wu Changtian said coldly.
"What has that got to do with me? I'm not going!" Ye Haochuan sneered.
What a joke, if I went again, would I not have my head caught in the door?
Wu Changtian sneered, "Not going? Humph, Ye Haochuan, you broke regulations by operating on President Li's son. Now that there's a complication, you wash your hands of it. Aren't you afraid of being held responsible?"
He assumed that since Ye Haochuan had just graduated from college and wasn't savvy about the ways of the world, this statement would scare him to the point of wetting his pants. In order to keep his job as a doctor, he would definitely follow him without protest.
Unfortunately for him, he miscalculated.
"Held responsible? I brought the patient back to life, fulfilling my duty as a medical practitioner with a conscience. I have a clear conscience. Whatever complications arise afterward are your responsibility. Get lost, I'm not going."
Wu Changtian's expression darkened, and he said sternly, "Ye Haochuan, don't be a fucking ingrate! I'm asking you one more time, are you going or not?"
Ye Haochuan stood up and said loudly, "I'll say it one more time too, I'm not going! Not going!"
Wu Changtian completely lost it.
"You little shit, you'll regret it if you don't take the easy way out. Just you wait." Wu Changtian stormed off, fuming.
Seeing this situation, Kou Jing urgently said, "Doctor Ye, you should still check on him. If something happens, you'll be in trouble. They might make a big deal out of you breaking regulations to operate."
"I don't care."
A few minutes later, Wu Changtian appeared before Li Tianwei and Tan Yuying, trembling with fear.
The condition of the young master on the hospital bed was still perilous; although not at its most critical, the bleeding from his mouth and nose continued.
Several nurses were busily tending to him in a panic.
"Where's Doctor Ye?" Li Tianwei's stern face fell when he didn't see Ye Haochuan following.
