Chapter 6 A Medical Miracle

"Please, save my father!" The moment Chu Meiting laid eyes on him, she immediately grasped Ye Fei's arm, tears streaming down her face before she could even speak. Taken aback, Ye Fei asked, "Please don't cry. What happened?" "Come with me to the hospital first, we can talk on the way," Chu Meiting urged, pulling his arm and quickly getting into the car, rushing to the hospital at full speed. During the journey, Ye Fei finally pieced together what had occurred. Zhao Jiafeng had shut down the Chu family's company, causing Chu Jiang to collapse in a state of anxiety, teetering on the brink of death. Feeling responsible for the situation, Ye Fei couldn't just stand by and watch. Upon entering the hospital, Zhang Zhongji spotted Ye Fei and greeted him with a smile. "Young friend, I have missed you greatly since we last met." "Please, take me to see the patient first," Ye Fei cut to the chase, not wanting to waste any time. Saving a life is akin to extinguishing a fire. Zhang Zhongji led him straight to the ICU without any unnecessary words. Chu Jiang lay on the hospital bed, with his life hanging by a thread. Several attending physicians had already given up hope of saving him. "Mr. Ye, do you believe there is still a chance to save him?" Zhang Zhongji inquired cautiously. "As long as I am here, he will not die," Ye Fei stated confidently and assertively. Approaching the bed, Ye Fei observed the barely breathing Chu Jiang, his fingers moving swiftly as he applied pressure to key points. Onlookers marveled at his skill, recognizing the expertise at play. After about half an hour, Chu Jiang, who had been on the verge of death, miraculously regained consciousness. Apart from occasional coughing, his condition seemed almost normal. "This... this is truly a medical miracle!" The doctors looked at Ye Fei with admiration and disbelief. The ability to revive a critically ill patient from the brink of death showcased unparalleled medical prowess. Zhang Zhongji, filled with emotion, remarked, "I am truly in awe of your Life-saving Needle technique." Amidst the admiring gazes, Ye Fei exited the ICU and reassured Chu Meiting, "Uncle Chu is now stable. You can rest assured." Upon hearing the news, Chu Meiting, who had been on edge, joyfully embraced Ye Fei, expressing her gratitude for saving her father. "Don't mention it," Ye Fei replied with a smile. "The issues with the Zhao family were a result of my actions, so assisting Uncle Zhao was the right thing to do." At the mention of the Zhao family, Chu Meiting's expression darkened. She sighed and said, "The Zhao family was ruthless. The Chu Corporation is now in ruins, and I am at a loss for what to do next." After a moment of contemplation, Ye Fei realized the innocence of the Chu family in the matter and felt compelled to intervene. Spotting Zhang Zhongji nearby, Ye Fei called out to him, "Old Zhang?" Surprised, Zhang Zhongji corrected him, "Please, do not call me a doctor. I cannot live up to that title in your presence. If you don't mind, just call me Old Zhang." Ye Fei got straight to the point, "Old Zhang, what is your position at Zhongjing Pharmacy?" Zhang Zhongji was surprised, then smiled and pointed to the sign, "I apologize for the misunderstanding. Zhongjing Pharmacy is my family's business. Although I am not the head of the family, I still have a say in the clan. If you want to develop here, with your skill in the Life-Threatening Needle technique, you can definitely hold a position of respect..." "You've misunderstood, Old Zhang." Ye Fei interrupted, "I want to make a deal with you." "A deal?" "Yes, do you want to learn the Life-Threatening Needle technique?" Zhang Zhongji's eyes widened, almost thinking he misheard, and said in disbelief, "You... are you serious about passing on the Life-Threatening Needle technique to me?" His lips were trembling, as this was a long-lost needle technique. If he could learn it, he would be overjoyed. "I am not joking, but you cannot pass on this technique to others, and you need to do me a favor," Ye Fei said seriously. Zhang Zhongji stood up, clasped his hands together and bowed deeply, with a solemn expression, "Master, please accept this disciple's bow. Whatever you ask for, as long as this disciple can do it, even if it means going through fire and water, I will not hesitate!" Ye Fei nodded, pointing to Chu Jiang still lying on the sickbed, and said in a deep voice, "Chu Corporation has encountered some difficulties recently, help him out." "It's a small matter!" Zhang Zhongji immediately agreed. In front of the vast power of the Zhang family, helping a small company like Chu Corporation was just a piece of cake. After Zhang Zhongji agreed, Ye Fei taught him the Reversal Life and Death Needle technique. However, this set of needle techniques was extremely profound and varied, and it was impossible to master them just by listening to them once. Zhang Zhongji didn't mind, anyway, there was still plenty of time in the future to learn slowly, and he would eventually comprehend it. The next day, Chu Jiang was transferred to a regular ward. Although his condition had improved, there was still no smile on his face. Chu Corporation was his lifelong effort, and now that it had gone bankrupt, it felt like a knife had been plunged into his heart. "Dad, have some food." Chu Meiting walked in with a bowl of porridge and said earnestly, "The doctor said your body is still very weak, you must pay attention to your diet." Chu Jiang looked at the steaming porridge, but couldn't muster any appetite. He sighed and said, "With the company gone, my heart feels empty. I don't know what to do in the future." Chu Meiting looked at her father's haggard appearance, feeling sorry for him, and comforted him, "Dad, don't be too sad. There is still hope for the company..." "What did you say?" Chu Jiang's eyes widened suddenly, no longer looking half-dead as before. Chu Meiting was startled, about to speak, when the door of the ward was pushed open and Zhang Zhongji and Ye Fei walked in side by side. She smiled instantly, "The main characters are here, let them tell you themselves." Chu Jiang's gaze fell on Zhang Zhongji, his face filled with gratitude, "Thank you, Dr. Zhang, for saving my life. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have survived." "Mr. Chu, you misunderstand." Zhang Zhongji waved his hand humbly, "It was all thanks to Mr. Ye, he is the one who truly saved you." Chu Jiang glanced at Ye Fei, his expression showing doubt, "Is it you who led Meiting astray and caused our family to go bankrupt?" Ye Fei smiled awkwardly. Chu Meiting quickly explained, "Dad, things are not as you think! Both times, it was Ye Fei who saved your life." She recounted the events, with Zhang Zhongji also adding details on the side.
