Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Ma Lei immediately scooped out ten thousand yuan from a bag on his back and handed it over to Xiao Yu.
"You all should rest now! When you return home, make sure she recuperates properly for some time!" Xiao Yu said to the old Ma family members.
At this moment, Li Jie also walked out of the room. Upon seeing the old Ma family at the door, she rushed towards Old Ma's spouse and Ma Lei, crying loudly.
In these three years, not only did he suffer in others' care, but she herself was like a drifting piece of aquatic plant floating outside. Now, upon seeing the old Ma family, it seemed as if they were her support.
Hearing Li Jie's cries, Old Ma’s spouse and Ma Lei were startled, for they hadn't heard such an affectionate address from Li Jie in nearly three years.
Ever since Li Jie had the car accident, she was always disoriented. She didn’t even have moments of clarity to call out anyone's name.
"Ah... wife, you've finally recovered!"
Only when Li Jie rushed into their arms did they react, both saying in unison. Afterward, the old Ma family wiped away tears from the corners of their eyes.
Standing at the door, Wang Shanshan watched as the old Ma family wiped their tears and couldn't help but wipe her own eyes too. To be honest, they treated her well, yet because she wasn't Li Jie, to avoid exposing herself, she had to pretend to be insane to prevent suspicion from others. Additionally, she needed this way to vent her repressed feelings; otherwise, she would have gone mad long ago.
Although the old Ma family was crying, there was a hint of excitement on their faces. After the four members of the old Ma family nodded at Xiao Yu standing beside them and entered the room that he had booked, they started discussing many things since Li Jie's illness had been cured. Thus, without being polite to Xiao Yu, they moved into his room.
"Doctor Xiao, I'll be going back too!"
Standing at the door of the room and seeing the old Ma family reunite, Wang Shanshan thought about her daughter and husband who had become a vegetative state patient. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes as she said to Xiao Yu with a gloomy expression.
Hearing what she said, Xiao Yu nodded at her and replied, "I have to return to the deep sea tomorrow. As for your husband's illness... if you trust me, take him to the deep sea; even though there isn't a hundred percent certainty of success, it has more than sixty percent chance!"
"What Doctor, are you serious"
<
Although she believed in what Xiao Yu said, she couldn't help but ask for confirmation again, as if wanting to hear it from him once more.
"Doctor Xiao, I'm not doubting you...I just can't believe this!"
After asking her question, Wang Shanshan realized that what she said wasn’t appropriate and quickly explained herself to Xiao Yu. She was afraid that he would be angry and stop treating her husband.
In her eyes, Xiao Yu was a wonder man who seemed capable of anything. He could solve the strange events happening around them so easily; how much more could he do for her husband’s illness
"Haha, it's fine. When you have time, take him to the deep sea, as his condition requires long-term treatment which isn’t possible in Zhonghai."
Xiao Yu brushed off her words and replied with a light laugh.
Last night when he left, he had already taken Wang Shanshan’s husband's pulse. He was aware of the husband’s medical condition; it had been over two years since his injury turned him into a vegetative state. Therefore, the treatment would take time.
Even with everything going smoothly, it would still take at least one month. Any unforeseen circumstances could extend that even further. Thus, staying in Zhonghai for just one week was not feasible. He had no choice but to let Wang Shanshan take her husband to the deep sea.
"Okay, thank you...thank you so much, Doctor! I will discuss it with my parents-in-law when I get home," Wang Shanshan said upon hearing that they needed at least one month in the deep sea. She decided to go back and talk about this with her family.
Wang Shanshan then left. Her husband was alone at home, and she hadn’t been there for almost two years. So, she was eager to return home. Furthermore, she knew Xiao Yu’s clinic's address.
It was nighttime when Xiao Yu came out of the hotel room he had used. He went straight to Wang Shanshan’s room since it was empty now and didn't need him to book another one.
The next morning, after packing up his things, Xiao Yu left the room.
He glanced at the opposite apartment where La Ma's family lived. Seeing that their door was closed, he decided not to disturb them as he left the hotel with his backpack and headed towards the airport.
Initially, Xiao Yu had planned to explore Zhonghai since it was his first time there; but after feeling an inexplicable familiarity at the City God Temple yesterday without being able to identify its source, he lost interest in sightseeing. So, upon completing the soul swapping for Li Jie and Wang Shanshan, he intended to head back to the deep sea.
Xiao Yu caught a taxi from the hotel and went straight to the airport where he boarded a flight bound for the deep sea.
After arriving at the deep sea via plane, Xiao Yu drove his car out of the parking lot and headed towards Wansheng Hall.
When Xiao Yu returned to Wan Sheng Hall, it was already noon. Xiao Hongyang was having lunch with Liu Erxi there.
"Master, you're back! Have you eaten yet" Upon entering Wan Sheng Hall, Xiao Huoyan noticed Xiao Yu and immediately put down his food, addressing Xiao Yu.
“Doctor Xiao!” Liu Erxi also stood up alongside Xiao Hongyang to greet Xiao Yu.
"Mm. I haven't eaten either. Is there enough food If not, Erxi can go buy some more!"
Xiao Yu responded and walked over to the table, looking at their meal and saying.
“Sure thing! I’ll go get some more right away!” Upon hearing that Xiao Yu hadn’t eaten either, Liu Erxi quickly stood up and ran out without asking for money.
After finishing lunch, Xiao Hongyang initially wanted to send Xiao Yu back to rest, but after thinking about it, Xiao Yu decided not to return. Although he had been busy these few days, he wasn't too tired, so there was no need to rest.
In the afternoon, while the number of people coming to Wan Sheng Hall for medical treatment wasn’t high, it still kept them quite busy. After this batch left, they sat on chairs to take a break.
"Hongyang, when will your assistant be arriving" During their rest, Xiao Yu asked Xiao Hongyang.
“He should be here tomorrow; he has to clear his work in Beijing these two days,” replied Xiao Hongyang upon hearing the question.
“Mm. How’s the hiring process for cashiers and accountants going Try to speed things up!”
Xiao Yu felt relieved upon learning that his assistant would arrive tomorrow. Currently, they were short on apprentices who could prepare medicine; usually it took Liu Erxi two hours after treating patients to finish preparing the medication. Therefore, an apprentice was urgently needed.
Moreover, a cashier and accountant had to be hired as soon as possible because otherwise, everyone would be overwhelmed by these trivial matters.
"We have already placed ads for hiring cashiers and accountants in newspapers and posted recruitment notices here!" Xiao Hongyang informed Xiao Yu. When mentioning the notice, he pointed at a paper pasted on the glass window ahead of them.
Xiao Yu followed the direction pointed by Xiao Hongyang and indeed saw a paper stuck on the glass ahead. If it weren’t for Xiao Hongyang telling him, he wouldn't have noticed.
Xiao Yu walked over to take a look. The piece of paper was printed out from a printer; it advertised for one cashier and one accountant, along with contact information...
Although Xiao Yu didn't know if this would be effective, it was better than not doing anything at all.
Towards dusk, the owner of the breakfast stall came here together with his son. After some time under treatment, the condition of the breakfast stall owner's son had improved significantly and no longer looked listless.
"You've recovered very well! I can stop acupuncture after this session! Just take medication from now on!"
After performing acupuncture for the breakfast stall owner's son, Xiao Yu grabbed his wrist to feel his pulse and said.
Xiao Yu had noticed through feeling his pulse just now that the recovery of the breakfast stall owner’s son was better than expected. In less than a month and a half, nearly half of the stomach had recovered. At this point, it wouldn't be suitable for continuous acupuncture stimulation as overstimulation could harm the stomach since it had only recently been removed.
His current stomach would need to be nourished with medication, consolidating the effects of acupuncture, but the rest couldn’t rely on medicine anymore; he needed to recover slowly by himself.
"Really Doctor, my son is cured" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, the owner of the breakfast stall showed excitement and asked.
"Yes. His stomach was surgically removed, so it’s impossible for him to completely recover instantly. Right now, I’m helping his stomach recover partially so that he can eat and live without being affected."
Xiao Yu nodded and explained to the breakfast stall owner and his son.
"Thank you! Thank you very much, doctor!" The breakfast stall owner immediately thanked Xiao Yu after hearing what he said.
The breakfast stall owner was well aware that Xiao Yu’s words were true. Moreover, from the start, Xiao Yu had explained clearly to him. Being able to bring his son to a state where eating and living weren't affected already made him extremely grateful towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu handed out a prescription for medicine to Liu Erxi, who would get the medicine ready after he received it. Then, pointing at the medicine, he said to them, "The method of taking these medicines is the same as before; there are five doses here and you need to take one dose per day. Once they're finished, there's no need for follow-up visits."
The breakfast stall owner and his son expressed their gratitude towards Xiao Yu by bowing repeatedly and left Wan Sheng Hall with the medicine.nto happy laughter.The bus slowly stopped in front of Xiao Yu's house. After the doors opened, Wan Hongguang and the others walked off the bus and stood to one side while Xiao Yu, Song Hushan, Zhang D...
