Chapter 136: Back from the Dead
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
The name of this beautiful nurse was Yao Rou and she was in charge of caring for the patients in this hospital ward. She had bottles of pills on her tray and was ready to give Li Yunxiang his IV drips. However, to her surprise, she realized that all the tubes and apparatus that was previously attached to Li Yunxiang’s body had all been removed. She was obviously dumbfounded and extremely angered by the scene before her.
She was currently a fourth-year student at Jiangnan Medical School, specializing in clinical nursing and had 3 months left until she graduated. She pulled so many strings to get an interns.h.i.+p in City Ninth People’s Hospital, if something was to happen in the ward that she was in charge of, it would definitely jeopardize her graduation, she might as well forget about obtaining her graduation certificate.
Ling Yun turned around and immediately noticed the name tag on Yao Rou’s chest. Thus, he flashed a smile and replied, “What am I doing? Healing!”
Ling Yun then immediately told Liu Li, “Ms. Liu, please tell the idiot at the door to not let anyone in without my permission!”
Ling Yun thought to himself, “Tie Xiaohu is really quite stupid, I told him I would be done in less than 10 minutes! Is it that difficult to guard a door properly?”
He did not stop to ponder about the fact that they were in a hospital right now. As if Tie Xiaohu would dare to bar the nurse from entering the ward.
Seeing that Ling Yun turned around to face her, Yao Rou became even more dumbfounded. A faint blush flashed across her beautiful face and her slender body began to tremble as she thought to herself, How is it possible for him to be this handsome!
However, she quickly snapped back to her senses and remembered her duties. Seeing how handsome Ling Yun was, Yao Rou kept her cool and did not lash out at him. Instead, with her tummy in and chest out, she walked over with the tray of medications in her hands and said softly, “Handsome, I’m not sure about you and your healing capabilities. But, this is a hospital, as long as he’s admitted here, he shall be our responsibility, you’re not allowed to do anything to him!”
Ling Yun took one look at the little nurse and noticed that she was extremely pretty. With outstanding features, her lips were dripping with seduction and her curvaceous body was extremely pleasing to the eyes. Apart from that, her voice was also sweet and gentle when she spoke to him. Therefore, with the gold needles between his fingers, he replied, “I’m only p.r.i.c.king a few needles into his body, his family has already agreed and consented to this procedure.”
Yao Rou was completely mesmerized by Ling Yun’s bright smile and started to blush. She then proceeded to inform him, “You can’t do that either unless his relatives have settled his discharged papers and brought him home. By then, you can p.r.i.c.k him however you want, it will have nothing to do with the hospital.”
Right now, Li Yunxiang’s naked upper body was completely exposed for everyone to see. Even though Yao Rou was more than used to seeing Li Yunxiang’s body after countless of days of cleaning and disinfecting his body, she still stealthily covered him with a blanket out of duty because of Ling Yun’s presence.
A woman’s heart was undeniable indeed…
Ling Yun was determined to save this person today as he did not have the time to come around again. Of course, he would not be bothered by Yao Rou’s words since his procedure would take 30 minutes at most. Right after he was done with the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot, he would leave when Li Yunxiang regained consciousness, how troublesome would that be?
However, he was not in a hurry since the procedure did not take up a lot of time. Therefore, he maintained his mesmerizing smile as he spoke to a star-struck Yao Rou. He told her, “I guarantee that nothing will happen, you can stay here and observe. If anything does happen, you can decide what shall be done to me. Is that all right?”
This sentence carried some form of teasing undertones just because Ling Yun noticed that Yao Rou looked extremely seductive while clad in her pink nurse uniform.
Ling Yun’s current appearance was truly powerful and capable of stealing hearts with just a single glance. In addition to that, his voice had become exceptionally magnetic. Yao Rou was so close to succ.u.mbing to his scheming good looks!
“I really can’t… This is a human life…” Yao Rou was still trying to resist, but the tone of her voice was no longer firm and decisive.
A playful smile danced across Ling Yun’s lips. He casually tapped on Yao Rou’s shoulder with his left hand and said, “Just a few minutes, nothing bad is going to happen…”
Right after those words left his mouth, Ling Yun could no longer be bothered by Yao Rou. At the speed of light, he pulled the blanket off Li Yunxiang with one hand and brought out the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot as if he was performing acrobatics!
Ling Yun intentionally tried to get through Yao Rou with his das.h.i.+ng good looks and it seemed as if his plan had worked out perfectly. The gentle tap on Yao Rou’s shoulder nearly crippled her and sent her melting into the ground!
She tried her best to control her breathing and was no longer capable of stopping Ling Yun from carrying out the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot’s procedure.
Then, waves of shock washed over her as she looked at the scene unfolding right before her very own eyes!
This time, Ling Yun was carrying out the procedure with both hands. His fingers were dancing across Li Yunxiang’s body like the rhythm of flowing water. At this moment, he was more das.h.i.+ng than the world’s most famous pianist playing the piano!
He was handsome, but his actions were even more mesmerizing! Unbelievably enchanting!
Apart from these, Ling Yun’s slender fingers, confident gaze, and focused expression when he was applying the needles sent Yao Rou into a daze!
“I mustn’t let him get away scot free, I must get his phone number!” With her eyes fixed on Ling Yun, Yao Rou lost her balance and quickly placed the pill bottles on the bedside table before holding onto the bed as she desperately tried to support her delicate body.
Ever since Ling Yun’s body underwent a major cleansing by the huge amount of dragon aura from Dragon Mountain, he was only half a step away from attaining Level Four of physique tempering. The insane amount of spiritual energy coursing through his veins gave him a tremendous amount of strength which allowed him to carry out the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot’s procedure nine times consecutively. After inserting the nine gold needles into the acupuncture points on Li Yunxiang’s head, the procedure finally came to an end.
Nine minutes! It only took him nine minutes!
Right after he was done with the procedure, he flashed a faint smile before patting the dust off his hands. He then said to Li Yunxiang’s mother, “Auntie, I’m done with the treatment, if everything goes according to plan, Mr. Li should regain consciousness in 10 minutes. You and Ms. Liu should probably get ready, I’ll leave the room for a while, do let me know when Mr. Li is conscious.”
Again, Ling Yun flashed a brilliant smile before turning around and marching out of the hospital ward.
“He’ll wake up in 10 minutes?!”
“So quickly?!”
Li Yunxiang’s mother and Liu Li were beyond elated when they heard the news and their faces were filled with utter disbelief!”
It had been more than a month! The doctor had already issued numerous notices of critical illness. The both of them did not hold onto much hope when they allowed Ling Yun to treat Li Yunxiang. Now that they knew Li Yunxiang was going to regain consciousness in 10 minutes, their excitement levels were through the roof!
Yao Rou’s expression was filled with disbelief as well. With admiration and l.u.s.t in her eyes, she looked at Ling Yun as she was rendered completely speechless!
Apart from Li Yunxiang’s doctor, Yao Rou had the clearest understanding of Li Yunxiang’s medical condition!
Due to her understanding of the situation, she knew that Li Yunxiang was not going to live past 3 months. Of course, she did not tell that to Li Yunxiang’s family. The only reason Li Yunxiang was allowed to stay in the hospital for treatment was for a miracle to appear!
In the eyes of the professionals, Li Yunxiang was definitely a lost cause. This was also the main reason why Yao Rou dared to allow Ling Yun to carry out his treatment.
In any other scenario, she definitely would not have allowed Ling Yun to do things as he pleased!
However, all it took was 10 minutes for Ling Yun to p.r.i.c.k the nine gold needles into Li Yunxiang’s body for about 100 times and just like that, Li Yunxiang was going to wake up in the next 10 minutes?!
What kind of medical skill was that?! That could no longer be described as superb medical skills, this was basically reviving the dead!
Yao Rou was utterly dumbfounded. She even decided against leaving and chose to stay in the ward for another 10 minutes just to verify whether Ling Yun was right!
As Ling Yun arrived at the door, he glared at Tie Xiaohu who had been zoning out throughout the entire procedure. “Can’t you be a little more in-sync with me? I’ve already told you that I’m here to save a patient, why would you let someone in to disrupt me?”
Ling Yun thought to himself, “In terms of adaptability and solving problems, Tie Xiaohu was still subpar to Tang Meng. Tang Meng was able to get in-sync with me within two days of us knowing each other.”
Tie Xiaohu broke out in cold sweat as he thought to himself, Boss, we’re in a hospital! How can we possibly bar doctors or nurses from entering wards in a hospital?
However, he did not have the courage to say this aloud. All he could do was scratch and nod his head awkwardly.
Ling Yun found a random spot and plopped down before looking up and chuckling. He asked Tie Xiaohu, “Now that we’re free, tell me. Why did you come to school to pick a fight with me?”
Tie Xiaohu had already made up his mind and decided on working for Ling Yun no matter what, therefore there was no reason for him to keep anything a secret. He then told Ling Yun the entire process of how Gou Junfa found and instructed him to give Ling Yun a good beating.
After listening to the entire story, Ling Yun nodded his head and told Tie Xiaohu, “I guess Gou Junfa still hasn’t given up! What do you plan to do next?”
Tie Xiaohu did not understand Ling Yun’s question and asked in confusion, “Do you need me to, give him a beating?”
Ling Yun frowned at Tie Xiaohu’s response and pondered about how off-synced they are as partners. Helplessly, he replied, “What’s the point of beating up that piece of trash? I’m talking about the money!”
Tie Xiaohu was surprised.
Money? Tie Xiaohu thought in his head.
He pondered for a moment and said, “Is Boss thinking about the 20 thousand yuan? Just forget about it, I’ll return the 10 thousand yuan I got from him today!”
Ling Yun was extremely frustrated at this point as he furrowed his brows furiously and licked his teeth in frustration. “Bulls.h.i.+t! I’m telling you to bring back the other 10 thousand yuan!” he yelled.
“Huh…” Tie Xiaohu was dumbfounded!
He did not manage to beat up the target and fulfill what he had previously promised. Not only that, he even got beat up by the very person he was targeting, how could he possibly have the cheek to request for the remaining 10 thousand yuan?
Ling Yun looked at Tie Xiaohu with a frustrated expression and became silent. After a long pause, he finally advised Tie Xiaohu by saying, “Tie Xiaohu, since you’re going to be working for me, you have to understand the way I do things. Remember this, you can do anything and everything under on condition, that is you must not be at a disadvantage. Being at a disadvantage is not my style! Do you understand?”
Tie Xiaohu did not expect such words to come out of his new boss’ mouth and immediately stared at Ling Yun, completely dumbfounded as he thought to himself, Is that even possible?!
“That, isn’t that just disobeying the moral code of gangsters?” Tie Xiaohu muttered to himself.
Ling Yun gave him a side glance with his gorgeous eyes and responded, “The moral code is bulls.h.i.+t, the biggest rule here is not being at a disadvantage. You’ve got to remember, you must bring back the 10 thousand yuan, did you suffer a beating from me for nothing?! You don’t look like an idiot, but why do you act like one?”
Ignoring Tie Xiaohu’s blank gaze, Ling Yun continued lecturing him. ‘From now onwards, you have got to learn more from Tang Meng whenever you spend time with him. Else, you won’t ever be in-synced with me, communicating with you that way would be too much of a ha.s.sle!”
Tie Xiaohu was speechless, all he could do was nod blankly.
After a round of lecturing from Ling Yun, Tie Xiaohu embarked on the great journey of becoming a martial arts master in accordance with the concept of never being at a disadvantage!
In the case of Tang Meng, he did not need any sort of advice!
Five minutes later, the hospital ward’s door swung wide open and the s.e.xily cheeky silhouette of Yao Rou appeared right before the ward. Her face was filled with surprise and insuppressible excitement!
“This is definitely a miracle in medical history! Li Yunxiang is awake! Back from the dead!” Yao Rou exclaimed.
