Chapter 30
In the emergency room, the nurse was surprised to see Tao Qingming and asked, “Chief Tao, why are you here?” He even had a bunch of silver needles sticking out of his head…
“I heard there’s a patient in critical condition, so I came to have a look,” Tao Qingming explained.
The nurse, somewhat bewildered, opened the door and let him in.
Tao Qingming gestured for Nan Yan to follow him and said, “You come in with me and study well.”
Nan Yan obediently followed him, and the two of them entered the emergency room.
Outside, the family members couldn’t help but ask the nurse, “Who is that old man?”
The nurse, with a tone of respect, replied, “That’s Chief Tao Qingming, the honorary chairman of the Chinese Medicine Association!”

Inside the emergency room, the patient’s condition was already critical.
The blood pressure kept dropping, and the heartbeat fell below the warning line.
“Chief Tao, why are you here?” someone asked.
“Just helping a young friend,” Tao Qingming replied seriously. He looked at Nan Yan and asked, “Are you sure you can save him?”
Even he couldn’t guarantee success with such a severe condition.
“Yes,” Nan Yan nodded. She then opened her needle case and said, “His condition is not too severe, but it requires Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture therapy.”
The doctors in the emergency room looked at Tao Qingming, unsure of what to do. If it were Tao Qingming himself, they would have complete trust. But if it was this high school girl standing in front of them…
Saving a life was no small matter, and they couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.
After a moment of contemplation, Tao Qingming felt his mind completely clear, free from any pain. He spoke up, “Let her do it. If something goes wrong with the patient, I’ll take responsibility.”
“Alright…” the doctors reluctantly agreed.
Nan Yan moved swiftly, holding the needles in both hands, and ruthlessly inserted the silver needles into the acupuncture points. The speed at which she inserted the needles left everyone stunned.
Tao Qingming looked at Nan Yan with a gaze tinged with excitement.
However, he knew it wasn’t the right time to disturb her. He could only suppress his excitement and wait for her to finish.
The nurse standing beside the equipment exclaimed with joy, “The patient’s vital signs are stabilizing!”
“The blood pressure is starting to rise, and the condition is improving!”
Nan Yan closely monitored the patient’s condition and adjusted the needle techniques several times. When his pulse finally stabilized, and color returned to his face, she knew that he had crossed the threshold of life and death, and there was no longer any danger to his life.
When the time was right, Nan Yan carefully removed the needles and said, “The follow-up treatment will need to be carried out by you. Also, please don’t mention that I performed the treatment to anyone.”
She hadn’t figured out how to face her acquaintances from her previous identity using her current status.
“Alright,” they agreed.
With the successful treatment, the doctors in the emergency room thought highly of Nan Yan.
She didn’t want to be mentioned, and they understood.
The silver needles on Tao Qingming’s head were also removed, finally relieving him of the migraines that had plagued him for decades.
After leaving the emergency room, he couldn’t wait to ask, “Young friend, who is your master?”
Nan Yan lowered her gaze slightly and softly replied, “My master is Hua Shifang.”
“I see, so you are a disciple of Divine Doctor Hua!” Tao Qingming’s expression showed understanding.
No wonder, such achievements at such a young age!
Hua Shifang was a prominent figure in contemporary Chinese medicine, and his ancestor was the legendary physician Hua Tuo.
Tao Qingming had considered asking Nan Yan if she intended to study Chinese medicine under him, but now he knew better than to ask.
“Young friend, how has Divine Doctor Hua been in recent years?”
Hua Shifang was the soul figure of modern Chinese medicine, but he had disappeared from public life a few years ago. Many people suspected that he might no longer be alive, considering his age, nearing ninety.
Nan Yan’s mind was filled with the image of her mischievous master, who seemed to become even more playful as he grew older. She could not help but smile as she said, “Master is still in good health. Thank you for your concern, sir.”
“That’s good to hear.” Tao Qingming breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid to hear any bad news about Hua Shifang from Nan Yan.
“Please give my regards to the Divine Doctor Hua,” Nan Yan added.
“Sure.” Nan Yan nodded and continued, “Sir, your migraines can’t be completely cured with just one acupuncture session. So, whenever you have time, I can come and give you acupuncture again.”
“That would be great!” Tao Qingming exclaimed with a smile. The more he looked at Nan Yan, the more he felt that she was an exceptional young girl.
“I’m available anytime. Let’s exchange contact information. Just let me know in advance when you have time, and I’ll be waiting for you here,” he said.
“Okay.”
Nan Yan took out her phone, and they added each other as friends. They also exchanged their names.
Checking the time, Nan Yan thanked Tao Qingming and prepared to leave.
However, Tao Qingming quickly called her back. “Young friend, I have a cheeky request. I’d like to invite you to join the Chinese Medicine Association. I won’t reveal your identity, and you can just have your name on the roster. If you’re willing to see patients, you can set your own consultation fees.”
“Okay,” Nan Yan agreed.
After spending some more time in Tao Qingming’s office, Nan Yan officially joined the Chinese Medicine Association. Only then did she leave.
It was now 2 p.m., well past school hours. Nan Yan had no intention of going back to school.
She had planned to meet Shen Junqing in the evening, which was still four to five hours away. Nan Yan decided to go and find a set of silver needles.
If she could find high-quality gold needles, that would be even better.
However, after searching through several traditional Chinese medicine equipment stores, she could only find the ordinary kind of needles.
In the end, Nan Yan returned empty-handed and decided to search for a set in the “Dark Realm.”
The Dark Realm was a global online trading network, similar to an underground black market platform. It covered everything from aircraft carriers to satellites, down to a single needle or blade of grass. It was the most comprehensive self-selected supermarket.
As long as one could afford the price, there was nothing one couldn’t buy there.
Nan Yan opened her phone and entered a few codes on the webpage. The screen flashed, and she was taken to a completely black page.contemporary romance
A login window appeared shortly after.
Nan Yan entered her account and password, and the page changed once again.
On the completely black page, a line of text appeared: “Respected Gold Member: Diving Fish, welcome to the Dark Realm.”
This account had tens of thousands of points, more than enough to buy a good set of silver needles.
If she had the chance, she would definitely retrieve the set of gold needles her master had given her.
After finding a set of silver needles that seemed decent, Nan Yan made the purchase and decided to have it delivered to her school address.
On the street, a red light illuminated, and a silver-gray Bentley Mulsanne stopped at the intersection.
Qin Lu’s gaze glanced outside the window and caught sight of a girl sitting by the window in a cafe. His eyes darkened.
“Pull over.”
Wu Yue: “???”
Although he didn’t understand why they needed to stop, if the Young Master said so, then he must stop.
The car pulled over by the roadside, and Qin Lu silently got out, striding with his long legs into the cafe.
“Little girl, shouldn’t you be in school at this time?”
