Of course, Zhang Tianpeng now hopes that Meng Xiaowei's or Liu Chang's family would stop Xiao Yu. This way, Meng Xiaowei’s child will be in danger, and at that time all he needs to do is say that the situation was salvageable but for Xiao Yu’s delay, making Liu’s family hate Xiao Yu.
Zhang Tianpeng knows about Liu Chang's background; with Liu Chang’s father’s influence, it wouldn't be hard to deal with Xiao Yu.
Meng Xiaowei's parents, who were squatting on the ground holding their daughter, and Liu Chang along with his parents, felt a moment of hesitation upon hearing Zhang Tianpeng's words. If Xiao Yu merely checked her out, there would be no issue since they knew that Meng Xiaowei’s classmates from Deep Sea University of Traditional Chinese Medicine must be better than them who know nothing.
However, now that Xiao Yu had taken out golden needles and considering Zhang Tianpeng's words, it made them hesitant. Although Meng Xiaowei was clutching her abdomen in pain, there wasn't any bleeding yet, so they were worried that if Xiao Yu didn’t cure her properly, he could worsen the situation.
"You don't need to—"
“Who said he doesn’t have a medical license You did”
The fifty-something balding man who was Liu Chang's father had just been about to speak when he was interrupted by the young man coming out from the first private box.
This young man was Zhang Shaohua. At this moment, Zhang Shaohua frowned as he looked at the noisy Zhang Tianpeng. Zhang Tianpeng was a young person who had only recently entered society; if Zhang Shaohua couldn’t figure out his intentions, then in politics, he would have been long devoured and left with nothing.
Reaching out to speak, Liu Chang's father, Liu Bao, was interrupted by Zhang Shaohua. He immediately stopped what he had intended to say.
Liu Bao was the deputy director of the municipal government office, while Zhang Shaohua was his immediate superior; thus, when Zhang Shaohua spoke, he didn’t hesitate and stopped speaking.
"I-I."
Zhang Tianpeng saw Zhang Shaohua looking at him. Although he didn't know Zhang Shaohua, seeing Health Bureau Director Wang Manjiang following behind him made him aware that this person was of significant importance. Thus, upon seeing Zhang Shaohua staring expressionlessly at him, he became timid and dared not speak.
"Director Zhang, Director Wang, why did you come out I'm truly sorry for disturbing your enjoyment!"
Liu Bao had only been paying attention to this side but didn't notice the people from the first private box approaching until Zhang Shaohua spoke. So he quickly came down from the stage and apologized to Zhang Shaohua and Wang Manjiang.
"Don’t speak, don’t disturb Doctor Xiao as he saves the patient! Old Liu, you can rest assured! With Doctor Xiao here, your daughter-in-law and grandchild will be safe!"
Zhang Shaohua saw Liu Bao approaching and quickly waved his hand.
The Liu family naturally recognized Zhang Shaohua, so they stopped in their tracks and looked at Xiao Yu holding the golden needle.
Xiao Yu held the golden needle and moved it to Meng Xiaowei's abdomen. He observed her slightly protruding belly and gently inserted the golden needle.
Instead of using other golden needles, he merely used this one, inserting it into her abdomen and then twisting it a few times before withdrawing it and moving on to another acupuncture point.
Xiao Yu's insertion was light but his hands were very steady without any hesitation.
Xiao Yu repeated the process at several acupoints on Meng Xiaowei's abdomen, gently inserting them, twisting a few times, then withdrawing each one in turn.
As Xiao Yu performed acupuncture, Meng Xiaowei slowly moved her hand away from her belly, and her expression of pain gradually eased. Seeing this, both the Meng family and Liu Chang’s family let out relieved sighs.
Xiao Yu withdrew the golden needle from Meng Xiaowei's abdomen, flipped his hand again, and the needles vanished from sight. He then exhaled lightly and stood up, saying, "It's done. Help her sit up; she’ll be fine after a short rest."
Hearing Xiao Yu’s words, Liu Chang and Meng Xiaowei’s family members helped lift Meng Xiaowei off the ground.
"My child! My child!"
A moment later, half-conscious Meng Xiaowei slowly opened her eyes. As soon as she did so, she cried out in alarm.
"Don’t worry, your baby is perfectly healthy and there’s nothing wrong."
Xiao Yu said to the woman before him.
Regarding Meng Xiaowei's and Liu family's attitude towards each other, Xiao Yu did not comment; regardless of their reasons for getting together, when a woman becomes involved, she throws herself completely into it. Moreover, Meng Xiaowei might not have been entirely unaffected by Liu Chang’s wealth.
Seeing that there was no unusual reaction from Meng Xiaowei upon waking up, the classmates and Zhang Tianpeng who were watching from afar at the engagement banquet stared in shock at Xiao Yu—was this still the same Xiao Yu whose test scores always turned red due to failing grades When did he become so skilled at medicine
They had all witnessed Meng Xiaowei's condition just now. Without medication, it was extremely difficult to preserve a fetus, which is why they kept their distance to avoid trouble. If Zhang Tianpeng hadn't seen Wang Manjiang leave the VIP room #1, he probably wouldn’t have come over at all.
Xiao Yu's medical skills are impressive enough, but it was unexpected to find out that he is also an expert in traditional Chinese medicine. Although many of them studied TCM during school, they mainly focused on Western medicine because mastering TCM requires more than a decade of effort.
Jiang Ling displayed a look of astonishment as she had only heard Wei Jun praise Xiao Yu's medical skills but hadn't witnessed it herself. Now seeing Meng Xiaowei, who was originally severely injured, almost fully recovered after just being treated with acupuncture needles by Xiao Yu, Jiang Ling felt amazed.
Only Wei Jun and Yun Xi were proud when they looked at Xiao Yu, rather than shocked.
"Xiao Yu, thank you! I didn't expect that you are not only good at playing basketball but also such an excellent doctor. How come nobody noticed this during school"
Meng Xiaowei said with a hint of sadness in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Yu standing before her.
At this moment, Meng Xiaowei had already recovered from the chaos in her fetus's energy flow adjusted by Xiao Yu's golden needles. Therefore, she only appeared slightly paler than usual; otherwise, there were no major problems left, and she would be fully restored after a few more days of recuperation.
"Haha, it’s okay. Later you can come to my clinic for some fetal protection medicine prescriptions, and everything will be fine!"
Xiao Yu said with a light laugh.
"Ha ha, Xiao Brother, your medical skills truly deserve admiration!"
Zhang Shaohua laughed loudly upon seeing Meng Xiaowei no longer in any danger and expressed his awe to Xiao Yu.
"Haha, Senior Zhang, Director Wang, are you also here for the meal" asked Xiao Yu as he looked at Zhang Shaohua and Wang Manjiang.
"Yes, we came to see the engagement party of Old Liu’s son today. We've been colleagues for many years!"
Zhang Shaohua explained to Xiao Yu.
"Old Liu, come here, I'll introduce you—"
Zhang Shaohua waved his hand and called out to Liu Bao who was standing afar.
"Everything’s fine now. Everyone, please sit down and continue eating!"
When people heard Liu Bao's words and saw that Meng Xiaowei was indeed fine, there was no more excitement to watch, so everyone sat down to eat and drink.
"Old Liu, come here, I'll introduce you. This is Doctor Xiao Yu who saved your grandson!"
"Brother, this is Deputy Director Liu Bao of the Municipal Committee's Office."
Although Zhang Shaohua was also curious why Xiao Yu would be here, he didn't pry further but introduced Xiao Yu and Liu Bao to each other.
"Yes, Old Liu, later you must drink a few cups with Doctor Xiao!"
Wang Manjiang also said this to Liu Bao from behind.
"Hahaha, definitely! Thank you, Doctor Xiao— you've saved the life of our family!"
Upon hearing Zhang Shaohua's introduction and Wang Manjiang's teasing, even though Liu Bao didn't know Xiao Yu's background, seeing how respectfully they treated him, he could tell that Xiao Yu was no ordinary person.
Xiao Yu looked at the man in front of him— Liu Bao. He recalled his family's earlier attitude towards Meng Xiaowei and realized she wasn't highly esteemed within the Liu household. Xiao Yu glanced at Meng Xiaowei standing beside her parents.
Meng Xiaowei's parents were obviously simple farmers. At this moment, tears glistened in their eyes. They had thought that their daughter had found a good family in the city; the groom’s parents held important positions and Liu Chang even owned a company. They felt proud of their daughter, but seeing her in-laws' attitude earlier made them worry about her future.
Xiao Yu turned his gaze away from Meng Xiaowei's family to focus on Liu Chang's household. Now that Meng Xiaowei was pregnant and already being treated poorly, she would likely face even worse treatment once the child was born!
"Haha, Director Liu is too kind. Meng Xiaowei is my sister-in-law, and the baby in her belly is my nephew. Saving them is just what I should do!"
Xiao Yu smiled lightly as he said this to Liu Bao.
Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Wei Jun immediately understood his intention; even he had noticed Liu family’s behavior earlier and completely agreed with Xiao Yu's actions. Meng Xiaowei knew about Xiao Yu opening a clinic but was originally going to congratulate him. Seeing that instead, he was talking and laughing with her father-in-law’s superior and friends made her momentarily stunned.
She was well aware of the background of those people—they were truly influential figures in this megacity of Shendai.t home" Xiao Yu asked curiously when he saw them waiting outside."Haha, it's just breakfast, doesn't matter if we have it out," said Xia Jianying with a chuckle."Alright, let's eat out then. What woul...
