Chapter 33 This Is Sciatica

But the young man before them remained as calm as ever.

He was like an old monk in deep meditation.

There wasn't the slightest hint of opportunism.

Qin Qiong couldn't help but be taken aback.

What exactly was this kid planning to do?

What was Lü Feng planning to do?

He wasn't planning to do anything Qin Qiong had envisioned.

At this moment, he was sifting through his knowledge.

The traditional Chinese medicine he had learned on the mountain, along with the records of difficult and complex illnesses left by his master and even his grandmaster, flashed through Lü Feng's mind like scenes from a movie.

The Daoists on the mountain.

Since ancient times, it had been a tradition for them to descend the mountain during times of chaos.

Daoists descended during chaos, while monks received offerings during times of peace.

Although he wasn't descending the mountain because of chaos.

But out of necessity.

Yet, the traditions of the mountain over the years.

Every cultivator had to master these skills.

Coupled with Lü Feng's inherent aptitude.

He understood these knowledge points better than most of his peers.

Lü Feng raised his head and looked at Qin Qiong with composure.

"Mr. Qin, as for how to settle the accounts, that's a matter for later. If you're willing to listen, Mr. Qin, I can elaborate. If this continues, the evil toxins in her body will keep accumulating, and Miss Qin will develop a fever. Within three to five minutes, it could lead to irreversible consequences."

Lü Feng was by no means exaggerating the danger.

Qin Qiong was about to retort.

This time, the private doctor beside her spoke first.

This person clearly doubted him in his eyes.

How could he tolerate that?

"What do you know? Are you a doctor or am I?"

The private doctor shouted indignantly.

This person was already in a state of utter confusion.

Didn't he understand the current situation?

Qin Nuannuan's symptoms were teetering on the edge of life and death.

The private doctor wasn't afraid of that.

Rather, from this kid's words.

He detected a hint of expertise.

Especially the mention of nerve pain, which was spot on.

Hearing this, the private doctor finally felt fear.

He had intended to hold out until the ambulance arrived.

Once the hospital took over, it would be over.

But judging by the situation.

This kid probably wouldn't let him pass smoothly.

Furthermore, the kid's next sentence startled him greatly.

This kid kept mentioning fever.

It was important to know that.

Fever was the arch-nemesis of such nerve pain.

The combination of these two was akin to placing a blazing hot furnace beside you in the height of summer.

The nerve pain would be rapidly amplified by the fever.

And once the pain was amplified, the fever would also worsen.

It was an undeniable vicious cycle.

And the end of this cycle was likely...

The private doctor dared not imagine further.

This was what he feared the most.

To the point that his right hand, hidden beneath his coat, trembled slightly.

Lü Feng's expression remained calm.

He continued to speak placidly.

"You are a doctor, that's true, but I also understand some knowledge in this area. Lives are at stake, and I must speak, mustn't I?"

The private doctor was instantly silenced.

And at this very moment.

A voice arose from behind Qin Qiong.

"Madam, it's not good, Miss's forehead is so hot."

The servant was extremely anxious.

Hearing this, Qin Qiong quickly looked down.

In an instant, she was shocked.

This kid had actually been right.

Before her, Qin Nuannuan's forehead was like a red-hot iron.

As the temperature continued to rise, Qin Nuannuan's breathing became increasingly rapid.

Qin Qiong's bewilderment grew like thick clouds.

Could this kid really know something?

Even so, Qin Qiong found it hard to believe.

Lü Feng was a businessman, after all.

It was likely a fluke!

Qin Qiong quickly found an explanation for herself.

At the same time, she urged the nurse who had called the ambulance.

"When will the ambulance arrive?"

The nurse dared not delay and quickly inquired.

"There are still six minutes."

"What? Six minutes?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qiong's face turned pale.

Although she didn't fully believe this kid's words.

But his words had been accurate twice.

It was better to believe it than not!

This kid said something would happen within minutes.

Six minutes.

A full minute too long.

One minute could mean a life.

Qin Qiong couldn't afford to gamble.

"Is there any way now?"

Qin Qiong's heart leaped into her throat.

Her gaze towards the private doctor became increasingly sharp.

The private doctor was momentarily at a loss for how to respond.

Fortunately, his mind worked quickly.

After a brief pause, he said, "Six minutes. Right now, the best course of action is to wait. Madam, I understand how you feel, but at this moment, rushing is useless, isn't it?"

These words sounded reasonable.

But when Qin Qiong looked at her daughter again.

Such reasoning instantly lost its final anchor.

Qin Nuannuan's condition worsened with every passing moment.

It was already visibly apparent.

Qin Qiong could no longer hold back.

To the point that a surge of anger erupted from her.

Qin Qiong looked at the private doctor, almost about to curse him.

"Is this the solution you've given me? How much do I pay you normally to keep you? Now that something has happened, you're all like useless trash, telling me to wait."

"What are you all good for!"

Qin Qiong was so angry she could barely breathe.

The private doctor had no grounds to refute these words, either in reason or in emotion.

Although uncomfortable, the private doctor, along with the nurse standing beside him, could only lower their heads and remain silent.

But the more the private doctor remained silent, the colder Qin Qiong's heart grew.

At this moment, Qin Qiong instinctively felt.

She couldn't wait any longer.

But the private doctor had no solution.

As a last resort, Qin Qiong slowly turned her trembling gaze towards Lü Feng.

But the moment her gaze met Lü Feng's.

Qin Qiong's eyes quickly darted away.

"No, absolutely not!"

Qin Qiong desperately tried to return her thoughts to their previous state.

This person before her was her enemy!

This girl before them.

Was truly pitiful.

Beyond wanting to seize this opportunity, Lü Feng also wanted to help this girl escape her suffering, at least temporarily.

Although it couldn't be cured, it could at least pull her back from the brink of death.

Otherwise, this person would likely watch her die.

Seeing through Qin Qiong's thoughts, Lü Feng said, "Madam Qin, a life is of utmost importance. I hope Madam can temporarily set aside the past grievances between the Qin and Lin families. Otherwise, you are harming a person!"

"Shut up! You brat, do you really think you're something?"

The private doctor dared not yell at Qin Qiong directly, but he could certainly yell at this person.

Lü Feng's words had hit him where it hurt the most.

How could he maintain his dignity?

To the point that the private doctor secretly thought.

He absolutely could not let Lü Feng touch Qin Nuannuan, not even once.

If this kid was pretending to know something.

And caused greater sequelae after touching her, or even the worst outcome.

That would be nothing.

After all, the responsibility wouldn't be his.

What the private doctor feared was that after a few of these moves, Qin Nuannuan's condition would improve.

Then, from this day forward, he would have no face to continue working for the Qin family.

At that time, even if he insisted on staying and pretended nothing had happened.

Would Qin Qiong agree?

And what concerned him even more.

From Lü Feng's eyes, he saw a look that sent a chill down his spine.

This person before him might actually know a thing or two.
