Chapter 111: Chapter 112: Sealing the Deal 7
Nianyang curved her lips into a slight smile, just about to continue speaking when suddenly a sharp scream came from the direction of the second floor, vaguely calling for a doctor.
"Whatâs happening?"
The middle-aged woman was startled, and without minding Nianyang, she hurriedly ran upstairs.
Upon hearing "doctor," Nianyang almost instinctively followed her upstairs, with Li Tingyan right behind her.
There were more guests on the second floor compared to the first. As soon as Nianyang got up there, she saw many people gathered in the middle of the hall, discussing about an elderly man with graying hair who was lying on the ground, convulsing continuously, foaming at the mouth, his eyes rolling back.
Most people were probably afraid of getting involved, so they just stood by and watched.
Only a young man who looked familiar to Nianyang was squatting in front of the old man, his eyes red with urgency, his forehead covered in sweat, anxiously shouting, "Doctor! Someone has fainted, is there any doctor around? Please call emergency services!"
"This elderly gentleman is having an epileptic seizure. Everyone step back a bit, donât get so close, let the gentleman breathe freely!"
Nianyangâs clear voice resounded, penetrating everyoneâs ears with authority.
As if following a command, everyone obediently stepped back as Nianyang directed, creating a large space around the elderly gentleman.
The young man saw someone stepping forward and it was as if he saw a savior. "Youâre a doctor, right? Please help him. Iâm the owner of this restaurant, I donât know what happened, the customer just lay down a moment after coming in, and then this happened."
The young man felt unlucky enough talking about it. This restaurant was actually one of his branches in the provincial capital, and he specifically came to inspect due to declining business during the day. Who knew heâd encounter this kind of bad luck!
If something happened to this elderly man in his restaurant, the already precarious situation of the restaurant would indeed be beyond saving!
Upon hearing the restaurant ownerâs words, people only then noticed Nianyangâs appearance, seeing that she was just a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old girl, they wore expressions of disdain.
"Tsk, who did I think it was, itâs just a little girl, how is she a doctor!"
"Exactly, whose child is so irresponsible, this is a matter of life and death, she should hurry home!"
"Boss, you better not grasp at straws in desperation, be careful, if something really happens, itâll be over!"
Nianyang didnât have the extra energy to pay attention to the bystandersâ thoughts; she knelt down and began to carefully examine the old manâs condition.
An epileptic seizure is extremely dangerous, and without timely control, it can cause brain edema, acidosis, and electrolyte imbalance leading to the patientâs death.
"Boss, quickly call for an emergency ambulance, and Iâll perform first aid on the gentleman."
Nianyang quickly began arranging, positioning the unconscious old manâs body properly, turning his head to the side to allow secretions to drain out and prevent choking, and then unbuttoned his shirt to clear his airway.
The onlookers watched the young girlâs skillful technique and thought she really had some skill!
After doing all this, Nianyang took out a pack of silver needles from the [space] in her backpack, and began performing acupuncture on points such as the philtrum, Hegu, Zusanli, and Yongquan to control the worsening condition.
The crowd gasped, amazed at Nianyangâs boldness â this girl even dared to needle someone, wasnât she afraid of causing trouble?
When the restaurant owner finished the call and returned, he saw Nianyangâs professional acupuncture technique and couldnât help but feel this girl looked very familiar!
Oh right, isnât she the Divine Doctor girl who cured his Gu Poison more than a month ago at the townâs black market?
Yes, this young man was indeed the head of the Ruan Family, Ruan Weidong, whom Nianyang had saved at the black market.
