The Crazy Son-In-Law

Just as they arrived at the door of the intensive care unit,

the previously most agitated middle-aged woman fell to her knees in front of Xiao Shun, pleading with tears, “Please… You must save my daughter. Her father is not home. If she dies, I won’t be able to live on. You must save my daughter.”

Before Xiao Shun came over, Qiu Jiali had told her that Xiao Shun could help her detoxify her child. When she saw Xiao Shun, she remembered how she had hit and scolded him before, fearing that Xiao Shun would ignore them. That’s why this scene happened.

Xiao Shun quickly helped her up from the ground.

“Don’t worry, I will cure your daughter. It has nothing to do with whether it’s caused by our Starline or not. She is a human life.”

“Thank you! Thank you…” This time she didn’t kneel, but bowed instead, expressing her gratitude continuously while bowing.

Xiao Shun sighed helplessly, turning to Chu Hong and saying, “Let’s go, let’s treat the child as soon as possible. There are still a few severe cases waiting, we can’t afford to delay.” Even if he depleted all the spiritual energy in his body today, he probably wouldn’t be able to treat all the remaining critically ill patients. He couldn’t help but sigh deeply in his heart. Once he found the bastard who had laid the Gu (a kind of witchcraft), he would tear him apart. Bastard!

After the three of them disinfected, they changed into sterile protective clothing and entered the intensive care unit. Xiao Shun immediately spotted a girl of about five or six years old. She had long eyelashes and her face was as white as a sheet. She lay quietly on the bed under the surgical light, looking like a statue made of ice.

At this stage, it was evident that the Gu toxin had spread throughout her body. Even if Xiao Shun could use the Ghost Door Thirteen Needles to save her life, her body would inevitably suffer damage. But he couldn’t worry about that now, saving her life came first.

Xiao Shun took out his needle box and began to apply the needles to the little girl in the same method he had used before. He infused his spiritual energy into her tiny body, immediately feeling as if her body was like a bottomless pit. After applying all thirteen needles to the corresponding acupoints, Xiao Shun was drenched in sweat.

“Wipe my sweat,” Xiao Shun said. Chu Hong quickly stepped forward, wiping away the sweat beads on his face with a towel.

When she saw the disgusting little bugs crawling out from the girl’s mouth, nose, and ears, Chu Hong’s eyebrows furrowed tightly. She felt a churning in her stomach and couldn’t help but retch a few times. Even Qiu Jiali, who was usually strong, was on the verge of breaking down, let alone her.

Once the Gu worms left the human body, they quickly lost their color and became dried up corpses. They crumbled to dust with a light pinch.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

About ten minutes later, Xiao Shun removed the silver needles from the little girl’s body. By this time, her face had a bit more color than when they first saw her. It seems this young man really has some skills, Qiu Jiali thought to herself.

She didn’t recognize the Ghost Door Thirteen Needles, but witnessing him apply them left her surprised. This wasn’t acupuncture, it was like weaving an artwork with silver needles. It was pleasing to the eye and truly impressive.

As for Chu Hong, she was already in awe. In just half an hour, a life on the brink of death had been revitalized.

“You’re really amazing,” Chu Hong whispered as they left the little girl’s ICU room. Xiao Shun just smiled faintly, not responding.

Even though Chu Hong spoke softly, Qiu Jiali still heard her and couldn’t help but grumble internally. Not only was this young man good at medicine, but he also seemed to have some skills when it came to charming women. He had managed to win over such a cute nurse so quickly.

“You look very tired, are you okay?” Chu Hong noticed that his steps were a little unsteady, and his hands were beginning to shake slightly. She rushed over to him, looking worried.

Xiao Shun waved his hand, “It’s okay, I just need to rest a bit after this treatment.”

“Can you still do it with your hands shaking like that?”

“No problem, my hands won’t shake once I pick up the needles,” Xiao Shun raised his hand to look, managing to squeeze out an exhausted smile.

In the midst of their conversation, they entered the next patient’s room. This time, it was a middle-aged man whose Gu poisoning was about as severe as the little girl’s.

By the time he was close to finishing the needle treatment, Xiao Shun felt as if his body had reached its limit. However, he couldn’t quit halfway, as that would be equivalent to giving up all previous efforts. Stopping midway could even cause great harm to the patient’s body, so he had to grit his teeth and endure.

Xiao Shun’s face was pale, his sweat pouring down like rain, as if he had just been fished out of water.

“Maybe you should rest a bit,” Chu Hong wiped the sweat off his face, expressing her concern.

Chu Hong and Qiu Jiali had reminded him more than once, but Xiao Shun just gritted his teeth and shook his head.

Until the last silver needle was pulled out from the patient’s body, the two of them saw him sitting there dazedly, staring blankly ahead. Suddenly, Xiao Shun’s vision went black. With a “thud”, he collapsed onto the floor…

Things on Xiao Shun’s side had been relatively smooth, at least three lives had been saved. The remaining patients could only rely on Qin Guangyuan and Zhou Shuqing to temporarily suppress the spread of the Gu poison in their bodies, waiting for him to recover before they could proceed with the needle treatment.

Stillwater City Environmental Protection Bureau.

Almost two hours had passed since Yao Cen had stepped through the gate, and she had yet to meet anyone in charge at the Environmental Protection Bureau. Zhuang Jin was supposed to accompany her, but Yao Cen felt that it wasn’t very considerate to let him waste his time here, so she persuaded him to go back.

Now, she sat alone in an unoccupied office. According to the staff here, this was typically where business discussions took place, so she could only wait.

Click, click, click!

The sound of high heels striking the concrete floor echoed, and soon a young girl dressed in a professional suit walked in. She was average-looking with deep purple wavy hair and a few red pimples on her face. She looked Yao Cen up and down with a hostile gaze, then asked coldly, “Are you the President of Starline?”

Yao Cen smiled and nodded, “That’s me.”

“Come with me, Mr. Chang is back,” the girl said and disappeared from view. Yao Cen quickly got up and followed, and soon they reached the office of Director Chang.

It was a very simple office, giving off a serious and heavy atmosphere upon entering. However, as soon as Yao Cen walked in, it seemed the whole office brightened up a bit.

Chang Zizhen, around forty years old, was a slightly plump middle-aged man with a clean complexion. His slightly bald head made him look much older than his actual age. Upon seeing Yao Cen, his eyes lit up, and a flash of desire passed through the depths of his gaze.

A top-notch beauty indeed!

That face, that waist, those long, straight, beautiful legs…

Chang Zizhen secretly swallowed.

“Hello, Mr. Chang, I’m Yao Cen, the General Manager of Starline. Here’s my business card.” Yao Cen knew she had to be humble when dealing with government officials, so she approached the desk, handed over her business card, and offered a bright smile.
