Chapter 201 - Intermittent Psychosis

Kang Xiaobo, Tang Yin, and Liu Xinwen stared in shock.

This was how it was with Fen's sickness- she'd hallucinate and go crazy for a while before settling down, falling asleep and forgetting everything that had happened after waking. Her suicide attempt this time around was but one example.

Lin Yi sighed faintly, it was intermittent psychosis. Fen had had a very serious emotional trauma, and that had developed into a sickness- it had worsened to this point due to a lack of proper treatment.

Yet intermittent psychosis was different from a mental illness: it was just a symptom, something that could be cured completely with proper guidance and acupuncture.

Huiping looked at Xiaobo after hearing Kang Zhaoming's name- a confused look on her face.

They did look alike… Huiping frowned as she recalled the suicide scene- so that was why Fen jumped, it was because of this Xiaobo!

Although, it seemed pretty ridiculous to blame Xiaobo for being born with that face- the guy was her daughter's savior, and she shouldn't be hating him at all.

"You still love me, don't you? Zhaoming?" Fen continued as she looked into Xiaobo's eyes. She tried getting down from the bed, the tube connected to her arm almost falling off as she moved.

Xiaobo jumped at the movement- he rushed over to stop her when Fen trapped him in a hug, not letting go.

"Zhaoming, you came back!! You won't leave anymore, right? You'll treat me good forever, right??" Fen asked softly as she embraced Xiaobo.

"Uh……" It was an awkward situation for Xiaobo- it was a scene he looked forward to, being locked in an embrace with Fen… It was something he could only fantasize about not too long earlier, and it had become a reality! Yet Xiaobo was nowhere near happy.

For Fen had another man in her heart- he was a mere replacement for Kang Zhaoming! Fen couldn't even see him as Kang Xiaobo!

Xiaobo wanted to let go of Fen- this wasn't the type of embraced he had wanted. He wanted a true, genuine one, one where Fen was conscious and willing.

"Aunty Song……" Xiaobo raised his head to Huiping.

"I'm sorry… I hope you don't mind……" Huiping said, helpless as well. "Wait for me, I'll go get the doctor."

There wasn't much else Huiping could do, after all.

"Wait!!" Lin Yi said with a sigh. He'd been involved with the whole thing already, and he couldn't just ignore the situation when he could help it.

There were only that many options for the hospital to tranquilize Lan Fen- it was either via injection or shock, both of which would damage the body. Fen's body was weak enough as it is, and stuff like that would only worsen her condition.

Lin Yi didn't wait for an answer as he made his way to Fen's bedside. He pulled the needle out of the bit tube, sealed it, and used the needle on Fen's hegu, jianshi, shenmen, baihui, and dalin acupuncture points. Lin Yi operated with speed and precision, and it wasn't long before Fen let go of Xiaobo and slipped back into bed quietly…

"Uhh……" Huiping wasn't very happy with Lin Yi poking at her daughter with a needle, but he'd been too fast- he'd finished by the time Huiping had made a sound.

Tang Yin, Xinwen, and Xiaobo were all equally stunned as well as they stared at Lin Yi, not sure what he had been doing.

"Boss……" Xiaobo decided subconsciously that he'd trust Lin Yi. He cared for Fen a great deal, but intuition told him that Lin Yi wouldn't harm the girl- there was a reason for what he'd done.

"Just simple acupuncture." Lin Yi shrugged. "She'll calm down and fall asleep, and she'll return to normal after waking up."

"Ah? Acupuncture?" Xiaobo started at Lin Yi in disbelief. "Boss, you know acupuncture?"

Tang Yin and Xinwen looked at Lin Yi in surprise. The guy knew acupuncture??

Huiping put her finger under Fen's nose, relieved after making sure there was no problem. Lin Yi had solved the problem so quickly and cleanly, and she'd been saved the trouble of calling the doctor, in addition to the extra medical fees. Her daughter had been sedated without any harm, too.

Tang Yin didn't know who this man in front of her was anymore…… She'd thought of him as a tyrannical young master, but that wasn't the case- he was much more tyrannical than the other tyrannical young masters! He never went easy on his victims.

Yet he knew about barbeque recipes, and it only took him one class to have one written out…

There was also what happened when Lan Fen'd jumped off the building, too. Others might've missed it, but Tang Yin saw- could Lin Yi have helped Xiaobo catch Fen?

That suspicion hadn't been resolved yet when Lin Yi smacked his acupuncture onto the table! She felt like she had to reevaluate him… He really was different from the type of young master Fen had been with!

So what if he's different? Tang Yin had decided that her first priority would be the exams- it didn't matter what kind of person Lin Yi was, she couldn't afford to be distracted with romance at a time like this.

She almost remembered to remind herself that it was all part of Lin Yi's plan! The guy was trying to lure her in!! Hmph…

Yet what had happened attracted the attention of the doctors- one of the patients' visitors might've went to a doctor when all the commotion had taken place. "What happened? Is the patient all right?"

"It's okay now, doctor, thank you- everything's okay now!" Huiping said hurriedly upon seeing the doctor.

"Okay now?" The doctor paused. Wasn't the patient illness acting up?

"This boy here helped put my daughter to sleep. With acupuncture." Huiping added, afraid that the doctor wouldn't believe her.

Lin Yi groaned internally. Come on… I'm gonna get in trouble for that…

As expected, the doctor's face changed instantly. "Acupuncture? How? How could you mess around in the hospital like that, what would you have done if something irreversible had happened??"

"Messing around..? It was just the needle from the bit tube…" Huiping said carefully, startled by the doctor's reaction.

"What??!" A vein popped in the doctor's forehead- what kind of doctor did the guy think he was??! Using the bit tube needle for acupuncture? Just how insane did his teacher have to be, to have taught him something so absurd?

Chapter 202 - Disciple of Guan Xuemin

The doctor wasn't an Eastern doctor, but he'd learned about Eastern medicine back in medical school. Using a needle head for acupuncture was ridiculous! The needle from the bit tube wasn't as thick as the one found in a syringe, but it still crossed the line! It was highly unlikely that a needle like that would cause no harm to the patient's nerves and veins, and no doctor would do something like that.

There were emergency situations where other non-professional needles were used in place of proper ones, but only absolute masters of Eastern medicine would carry out such a feat!

It was something that required very solid experience and foundations, and a very stable and controlled hand. Stick the needle in too deeply or too shallowly, and it'd cause unintended harm instead of curing anything.

"This is ridiculous, who did this?!" The doctor said angrily as he pointed at Lin Yi. "Was it you? What would you have done if something had happened to the patient? Whose responsibility would it be if that happened, the hospital? Lil' Wang, call the police!" The doctor ordered, furious.

"Okay……" The nurse nodded as she prepared to make a phone call.

While Lin Yi did know officers in the police force, he'd rather not get into any trouble. From how things stood, Lin Yi's medical skills might even be needed for Fen's recovery… "It's not ridiculous- I'm Guan Xuemin's disciple!!"

"Guan Xuemin? Who- What? The Guan Xuemin?!" The doctor paused as he stared at Lin Yi in disbelief- Guan Xuemin was known as the Dean of All Doctors, after all.

He himself was a graduate from Songshan's School of Medicine, and it was only natural that he'd know a character like Guan Xuemin. After all, all students at that school, both Western and Eastern medicine students, took pride in getting the chance to attend one of Guan Xuemin's lectures.

If this person really were a disciple of Guan Xuemin, then him using the needle head for acupuncture wasn't absurd in the slightest- it had been a special situation, after all.

Lin Yi nodded. "I can give him a call if you don't believe me."

Lin Yi spoke with such confidence that he didn't seem to be lying at all, and there wasn't anything wrong with Lan Fen, too- she'd just fallen asleep. The doctor wasn't too doubtful of Lin Yi's claim because of that.

"You're really the disciple of Miracle Doctor Guan?"

"I'll make a phone call." Lin Yi said as he pulled his phone out and dialed in the number Xuemin had left him. It'd be easier for him to work on healing Fen without interruptions if he put Guan Xuemin's name on the table.

Xuemin had just finished an acupuncture session with Liu Zhenhu when his phone rang. He frowned- he'd told his friends about calling him between nine to eleven in the mornings, very strictly, too. All patients, friends, colleagues… All of them knew that this was the time when Xuemin worked.

He was pretty displeased, but he did just finish the session.

"Hello? I'm Guan Xuemin." Xuemin said, his tone a little unfriendly as he spoke.

"Grandpa Guan, I'm Lin Yi." Lin Yi said, a little taken aback by Xuemin's hostility.

"Ah..! Mister Lin!!" Xuemin got excited instantly upon hearing Lin Yi's voice at the other end of the phone- he'd learned so much from Lin Yi from his last visit! He'd been working on some of the cases and solutions Lin Yi had taught him, too- his teachings had really enlightened him.

Xuemin was pondering about an invitation to approach Lin Yi to visit his house, too- this unexpected call was an absolute joy.

"Grandpa Guan, I'm at Songshan's First People's Hospital, and I wanna help treat a patient with acupuncture. I told them I'm your disciple, but the doctor here doesn't believe me… Could you help prove my identity to him?" Lin Yi said.

"Disciple?" Guan Xuemin paused. "That can't be, Mister Lin- I'm the disciple here!"

Xuemin wasn't one to put any emphasis on his status as an elder- Lin Yi was better than him, and that was that- age had no say in the matter. As a result, Xuemin would never dare claim mentorship over Lin Yi.

"Alright, I'll hand the phone to the doctor.." Lin Yi handed the phone over, hoping Xuemin would make his position clear.

The doctor's heart was pumping hard as he took over the phone, his eyes widening upon seeing the number on the display- it was Guan Xuemin's home phone!! All medical students knew about the number, it could be found in the contact list for the school- it was no secret.

The doctor spoke carefully after making sure it was Guan Xuemin on the other side of the phone. "Professor Guan, I'm Wang Liguo, third-generation graduate from Songshan's First School of Medicine! I was your student!"

Liguo didn't care if Xuemin remembered him- it was an absolute honor that he'd been to Guan Xuemin's lectures before. It was something people envied.

"Oh, Lil' Wang. Lin Yi's prowess in medicine isn't below what I'm capable of- just listen to anything he has to say." Xuemin was a practical man, and he didn't want to be known as Lin Yi's 'teacher' out of nowhere. He decided to just give Liguo a vague hint.

"Rest assured, Professor Guan!" Liguo said with a gulp- it seemed that Lin Yi had graduated from Xuemin's mentorship already, to have earned praise like that from Guan Xuemin!!

Liguo's attitude changed completely after the phone call had ended. "I apologize, Mister Lin- I didn't know who you were. Please forgive me!!"

"It's fine." Lin Yi said with a wave of his hand. "It was an emergency. I didn't have any other choice. I'll leave the rest in your hands!"

"No problem, Mister Lin. I'll see to her recovery myself." It was only natural for Liguo to pay more attention to Lan Fen's condition, now that he knew who she was associated with.

Huiping, on the other hand, had been pretty troubled over her mess-up, and the trouble she had brought Lin Yi- she was trying to figure something out when Lin Yi changed the doctor's attitude completely with just a phone call- the guy was respecting him now!

Naturally, the most surprised of all, was Tang Yin, who stared at Lin Yi, keeping her questions to herself temporarily considering the situation they were in.

"Well, Xiaobo and I will be going back first. We'll come back when Fen's condition stabilizes." Lin Yi said as he prepared to leave.

Xiaobo wasn't very willing to leave just like that, but one glare from Lin Yi, and he followed suit.

Tang Yin and Xinwen, on the other hand, stayed to look after Fen as the two boys walked out the hospital.

"Boss, you know acupuncture?" Xiaobo asked in disbelief, letting out the question he'd been holding in.
