Chapter 233: Causing A Shock

Yu Gangan was quite surprised by this scene.

She didn’t expect the childish man to be so filial.

From what she saw, it was clear that he cared about his grandma very much.

That was why he acted the way he did...

Yu Gangan thought for a second and opened her medicine chest. She then retrieved a black pill from the chest and placed it up to the old woman’s mouth. “Eat this up...”

When he saw the black pill, Ye Xi’s expression darkened again and he tried to stop her, “What is this? It’s so dark and black...”

“She can’t get any worse than she is now,” Yu Gangan glared at the man.

Ye Xi subconsciously swallowed the rest of his words.

For some reason, he felt this woman was a bit cute when she was fierce...

Yu Gangan fed the medicine to the old woman, lifted a corner of her clothes, and applied a needle to her stomach.

A little while later, Old Madam Ye’s condition stabilized.

She breathed comfortably and loosened her tightly knitted brows.

Ye Xi was dumbfounded. After a moment of shock, he asked, “Grandma, are you still in pain?”

The old woman smiled at him, “I’m much better.”

This was the first time his grandmother smiled genuinely since she fell ill. Ye Xi was ecstatic as he stared at Yu Gangan and said, “Quick, help my grandmother apply a few more needles. Maybe if you apply a few more, then she will recover.”

Yu Gangan ignored him.

[You child! How can I apply my needles so recklessly?]

Chen Mo and Shen Dongqing looked at each other with disbelief.

Ye Jiasheng was shocked as well.

He glanced at Manager Lu and noticed that he was also surprised by Yu Gangan’s abilities. When he sensed Ye Jiasheng looking at him, Manager Lu lifted his chin and smiled.

He looked particularly proud.

It was like he was telling him to see how amazing the doctor he brought was.

After she helped Old Madam Ye with her pain, Ye Jiasheng asked Yu Gangan, “Can acupuncture cure her?”

“I’ve done some research. The reason why acupuncture is recognized by European and American countries is because of President Nixon’s visit to China. Back then, the New York Times reporter that was accompanying him had appendicitis and he was healed using acupuncture...” Ye Xi said from the side.

At that moment, Yu Gangan cut in, “He experienced complications after he had his appendix removed and the accompanying doctor of Chinese medicine treated it. The results were good, so acupuncture stuck around in Europe and America.”

“Is surgery necessary?” Ye Jiasheng asked.

“You can choose conservative methods of treatment, but if it takes too long, surgery is still the best option,” Yu Gangan replied.

After a short pause, she added, “You don’t need to worry about acupuncture anesthesia. Although acupuncture anesthesia is not the mainstream method of modern anesthesia, it is an effective substitute and it can effectively make up for the flaws of traditional anesthetics by avoiding side effects such as the allergy that Old Madam Ye has. As for why it’s not promoted: firstly, it’s because the analgesic effect isn’t as intense as drugs, and secondly, the effectiveness is inconsistent and varies from person to person. But, this doesn’t mean it’s a lie. Acupuncture anesthesia was once used successfully during a heart transplant.”

Ye Jiasheng and Ye Xi looked at each other.

They were unsure of what to do.

“Didn’t you hire a famous abdominal doctor? You can make a decision when he arrives,” Yu Gangan said.

“Then, may I ask if you’ll be the one that’s personally applying the anesthesia?” Ye Jiasheng asked.

They had just witnessed her at work and believed in her abilities.

Yu Gangan hesitated for a moment and agreed.
