Chapter 275: Chapter 275
"A very good person. After he acknowledged me as his adopted son, he took care of my tuition fees, gave me living expenses, and even bought me clothes."
It was clear that Song Ke sincerely thought well of Zhang Ya.
"Do you want this patient to wake up?"
Song Ke nodded. "Of course. Doctor An Yan, please, you must help my adoptive father regain consciousness."
"Aren’t you afraid that if he wakes up, he won’t want you as his adopted son?"
Song Ke was taken aback for a moment. "If he doesn’t want me, then so be it. Madam Zhang has promised that no matter what happens, she will support me until I graduate from university." Newest update provıded by novel-fire.net
"Then you still hope for him to wake up? Shouldn’t you wish that he never wakes up?"
An Yan’s blunt words stunned everyone present. The medical staff looked at her as if she were a fool. Officer Xiaohe tensed, staring hard at Song Ke, afraid he would lash out and attack Miss An Yan.
But Song Ke’s face darkened, and he replied stiffly, "I’m not that kind of heartless person! Although it was because my adoptive father fell ill that Madam Zhang sought me out, she did it as a precaution! I wouldn’t hope for my adoptive father to never wake up just because of my own selfish desires!"
An Yan looked at him with surprise. "Is that really what you think?"
Song Ke puffed out his chest and lifted his head. "Of course! Madam Zhang has it tough! Though she’s called Madam, she’s actually just a woman in her twenties. My classmates of the same age are still living off their parents, yet she has to shoulder such a huge business!" Sympathy filled Song Ke’s tone. "The people under my adoptive father are like vampires, betraying and turning their backs on him the moment he had an incident. Each one can’t wait to devour her alive! How could she cope if my adoptive father doesn’t wake up?"
An Yan probably understood why Zhang Ya had brought Song Ke back as an adopted son. He possessed a naive foolishness that hadn’t yet been battered by society! What’s key is, silly as he may be, he still had his own logic! Such a person is most suited to be used as a pawn.
"It is indeed tough," An Yan responded. "Don’t worry, I will do my utmost to ensure the patient regains consciousness, no matter what."
As she spoke, An Yan reached out to take the patient’s pulse.
Wang Yifan looked at her as if she were an idiot. "It’s useless. His body functions are at their last gasp; the only method now is..."
Before he could finish, An Yan raised her hand. "Shut up! Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean I can’t either!"
Afterward, she had Song Ke and Officer Xiaohe help strip the patient’s clothes, exposing his upper body and limbs. Then she took out the prepared Acupuncture Needles. The single-use Acupuncture Needles were very convenient; there was no need to disinfect them beforehand, as they could be used straight after unwrapping.
Wang Yifan felt as if he had just blinked, and Wei Song’s head was already pierced with a dozen needles. The numbers on the nearby monitor also changed.
Wang Yifan was shocked. How is this possible? He regarded his own medical skills as pretty good. Being chosen by Wei Song as the family doctor proved his ability. But why was the man he had deemed beyond help now showing signs of improvement under An Yan’s hands? He had taken money from five families and had promised them that the old man would never wake up again. But in actuality, he hadn’t done anything! Because he judged that Wei Song truly couldn’t wake up, he took the money with a clear conscience. But now, seeing that Doctor An Yan might really manage to wake Wei Song up, what should he do? If Wei Song woke up, how could those people let him off?
Wang Yifan gave his assistant Li Qingqing a look, and Li Qingqing quietly slipped out into the living room and swiftly sent a message.
Lai Ming received the message and immediately sent it to the other three. They were all Wei Song’s subordinates, and after Wei Song fell into a coma, each of them had taken a group of people away. Yesterday, they received a message from Zhang Ya, saying that a miraculous healer had been found, and the old man would soon wake up, asking them to return what they had taken.
At first, the four of them thought Zhang Ya was trying to lure them into a trap. But unexpectedly, she really did find a miraculous healer. Looking at the photo sent by Li Qingqing, all four agreed that they absolutely couldn’t let the old man regain consciousness. With the old man, they could only drink soup, but now, they were the ones eating meat! Who would want to spit out meat that was already in their mouth?
"Let’s go. Let’s take a look!"
A fleet of luxury cars roared towards the main road from four different directions. Other vehicles on the road quickly made way. They dared not provoke them.
In an inconspicuous white van parked two streets away from the Wei Family estate, Wen Ge sent An Yan a message: "Miss, the groups from all four routes have arrived."
Upon receiving the message, An Yan’s lips curved into a slight smile.
Li Tianyao, seeing her smile through the surveillance, silently tugged at the corner of his mouth. The little girl refused to stay by his side and be protected! But he was hopelessly in love with her lively spirit! He needed to get closer to keep an eye on her.
"Lu Feng, prepare the car!"
As soon as Lai Ming and the other three arrived, Zhang Ya took them to the courtyard where the old man was staying. Upon entering, they saw Wang Yifan and Li Qingqing sitting by the pond, covered in dust.
"Doctor Wang, why are you outside?" Zhang Ya asked, displeased.
Wang Yifan replied with a stiff face, "Doctor An Yan was afraid we’d steal her techniques, so she made us leave!"
"She told you to leave, and you just left?" Zhang Ya pressed.
Wang Yifan said, "If we didn’t, that police officer was going to get violent!"
Zhang Ya was speechless.
"A police officer?" Lai Ming asked sharply, as he and the others promptly drew their weapons.
Zhang Ya waved her hand dismissively. "Just a young girl. I used her to get the miraculous healer here."
Lai Ming looked at Zhang Ya in disbelief. "Are you crazy?" People in their line of work avoided the police at all costs, yet this madwoman had actually brought the police to their doorstep and even dared to use them?
Zhang Ya nodded indifferently. "Yeah, I am crazy! Lai Ming, when it comes to ruthlessness, I won’t lose to you! Doctor Wang, tell them, how skilled is Doctor An Yan?"
Wang Yifan said, "When we came out, the old man’s fingers could already move."
The hearts of Lai Ming and the others immediately leaped into their throats.
"See, I didn’t lie to you, did I?" Zhang Ya continued. "If you’re sensible, hand over the territories you control. That way, when the old man wakes up, I can pretend nothing happened."
"How can you be so sure he will wake up?"
"With the miraculous healer here, waking him up is just a matter of time!"
Lai Ming and the others exchanged glances. They didn’t believe Zhang Ya, but they did trust Wang Yifan—after all, he had taken so much money from them. Besides, his family was in their hands.
Lai Ming sneered and lifted his leg to kick the door. Unexpectedly, the door opened from the inside.
Song Ke appeared at the doorway and, addressing Zhang Ya behind Lai Ming, said, "Madam, could you ask them to move to the front courtyard? Doctor An Yan said it’s a critical moment for my adoptive father, and any disturbance could affect him."
