Chapter 338: Chapter 339: Demotion Disciplinary Action 1
Seeing that no one had come out for a while, Lu Chiâs face was somewhat solemn. He was an outstanding doctor from the provincial capital and had just been transferred to Pingjing Pier today.
Just as he drove into the city intending to eat at a restaurant, he didnât expect a woman to suddenly collapse on the ground. As a doctor, he certainly couldnât sit idly by. He immediately called for emergency help and began to assist the woman.
It was impossible for him to operate alone; he needed an assistant. Seeing the womanâs breath getting weaker, Lu Chi became so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
"I studied medicine. Let me help you."
A clean and pleasant female voice suddenly rang out, instantly providing relief to Lu Chi.
He didnât even look at Nianyang and hurriedly said,
"Miss, itâs wonderful that you studied medicine. This lady has poisoned herself with too many almonds and needs to be fed crushed wormwood quickly. Please go to the kitchen and get it for me..."
Lu Chi, a Western medicine surgeon, wasnât adept at treating food poisoning quickly. This detoxification method was taught to him by an old acquaintance he admired.
Nianyang took the womanâs pulse and solemnly said,
"This woman has been poisoned for over ten minutes. Using wormwood now is useless. We must induce vomiting immediately. Quickly help me sit her up so I can make her vomit."
Lu Chi was stunned. He didnât expect this young womanâs medical skills to be quite good, able to determine the duration of the poisoning just by taking a pulse. Most importantly, her calm and composed instructions gave him a very familiar feeling.
Like that old acquaintance he admired...
Nianyang saw the man hesitating for a while, "Why are you still standing there? Quickly help the woman sit up!"
Lu Chi hurriedly responded and quickly helped the woman sit on a nearby bench.
Nianyang took a chopstick from the dining table, opened the womanâs mouth with one hand, and carefully probed the chopstick into her throat, pressing down on the base of the tongue.
"Urghââ"
The woman immediately vomited a foul-smelling mess onto the ground, filled with chewed almonds, and the acidic water sprayed onto Nianyangâs hand.
"It smells awful!"
The onlookers immediately retreated in distaste. Even Lu Chi, accustomed to such scenes as a doctor, couldnât help but frown slightly. But when he looked at Nianyang, he found that this young woman didnât flinch at all.
Her composure and skilled actions were not like those of a medical student but rather an exceptional doctor. That familiar feeling in his heart grew even stronger.
Nianyang didnât care what Lu Chi thought. She focused solely on her actions, inducing vomiting a second time for the woman until she could vomit no more.
Then she turned and went into the restaurantâs kitchen, borrowing some ginger from the chef, crushed it into juice, and mixed it with hot water to feed the woman.
Ginger juice can protect the stomach and help relieve food poisoning.
"Look, everyone, this ladyâs complexion is much better now."
The onlookers, seeing the womanâs complexion gradually improving after drinking the ginger juice, exclaimed in surprise.
Just then, the emergency personnel called by Lu Chi arrived. Nianyang and Lu Chi worked together to hand over the woman, now out of immediate danger, to them.
"Young man, young lady, you truly are admirable!"
The surrounding crowd started applauding vigorously. They had just witnessed Nianyang and Lu Chi save the womanâs life together; it was truly sacred.
Even the restaurant owner expressed his gratitude to Nianyang and Lu Chi, acknowledging that without them, the woman might have died in his establishment, which would have doomed his business to closure.
