It's over. This time, they were in big trouble... Yun Que'er wailed inwardly.
If Liu Yu didn't wake up, Liu Kui would keep pestering them.
Wasn't this just waiting to be bullied by Liu Kui?
Yun Que'er's palms were sweating. What should they do?
Old Doctor Ji was also busy sweating all over. He had been examining Liu Yu for a long time. He had listened to his pulse and hung the IV. Shouldn't this person wake up by now?
It was just a fight. Could it be that he had hurt his internal organs?
Old Doctor Ji's medical conditions were limited, and he wasn't sure what was going on. After a while, he had to raise his head and say awkwardly,
"How about sending him to the town hospital?"
Liu Kui got anxious. "Aren't you a doctor? Can't you even cure my son? What are you good for?!"
"I can't explain your son's current condition clearly." Old Doctor Ji sighed. "On the surface, it's just a minor skin injury. It's not serious at all. But if he could wake up, he would have already. If it's not an external problem, then we have to consider his internal organs. Instead of arguing with me here, you'd better hurry up and send him to the hospital."
Old Doctor Ji had been practicing medicine for many years. He could basically solve any minor illness or accident in the village.
Two years ago, there was a person in the village who got malaria. At first, they didn't take it seriously. By the time they realized it, it was too late. Everyone said he was about to die.
But Old Doctor Ji was a miracle - working doctor and actually cured him.
Today, no one knew what was going on. Anyway, Old Doctor Ji was at his wit's end.
But Liu Kui's reaction was very strange. Old Doctor Ji had repeatedly advised him to quickly move Liu Yu to the town hospital, but Liu Kui just stood there motionless.
"I think you just didn't treat him properly! I don't believe it. A perfectly good child, how could he not wake up? If I find out you're being lazy and slippery, you'll suffer!"
The village head couldn't stand it anymore. He was the only doctor in their village, and they mustn't offend Liu Kui.
What if one day Old Doctor Ji simply quit and left? It would be difficult to see a doctor in the future. He quickly stopped Liu Kui.
"Look at you. How can you talk like that? We're all watching here. Old Ji has been so dedicated. How can you say he didn't treat the patient properly? I think you should quickly find a flat - cart outside and take your son away. Don't delay."
"Are you trying to drive me away?" Liu Kui retorted. "I haven't settled the score with you yet. Don't think that getting rid of me will solve this problem! Even if I take my son to see a doctor, I'll naturally come back to you later!"
Yun Que'er had been listening nervously for a long time and suddenly sensed something strange.
It was not right. From the moment they entered the door, Liu Kui's reaction had been abnormal.
Normally, when a child is sick, even if it's just a headache or a fever, parents would be extremely anxious. Liu Kui only had this one son. Why didn't he seem to care?
Instead, while his son was being examined, he kept asking the Yun family for compensation and wanted to take her away. He even targeted Old Doctor Ji. In short, he didn't seem really worried. It seemed like he was just stalling for time.
Could it be that Liu Yu...
Yun Que'er frowned. Just as she was about to rush over, she saw Ji Chengxuan move first.
He had been watching outside before. Now, taking advantage of Old Doctor Ji's persuasion of Liu Kui, he squeezed through.
Yun Que'er observed secretly. She saw Ji Chengxuan reach out and touch Liu Yu's forehead. Then he took out a silver needle from the acupuncture bag on one side and pricked Liu Yu's tiger's mouth.
With a scream, Liu Yu suddenly sat up.
"Are you crazy! Why are you pricking me?"
"Look, he can wake up, right?" Ji Chengxuan said with a smile on his lips, a bit mockingly. "My dad has done everything he could. With his medical skills, it's impossible that he couldn't wake you up after so long. But there's one kind of person who can never wake up, and that's the person who's pretending to be unconscious."
Yun Que'er's eyes widened. Sure enough, her guess was right. Liu Yu was doing it on purpose!
Ji Chengxuan directly exposed Liu Yu's disguise. The on - looking villagers couldn't help but look at each other and whisper to each other.
"So that's what it was all about. What's he pretending to be unconscious for?"
"What else could it be? Isn't it just for money? Hey, I heard that Liu Kui wanted to take that little girl as a child bride before."
"Yeah, I heard that too. They were talking about it nicely, and the girl was almost sent there. I don't know why they suddenly changed their minds."
"Tsk tsk tsk, so that's the case... I think Liu Kui has really gone too far this time. What's a big, strong man like him doing bullying those kids?"
Liu Kui heard their gossip and turned his head to glare at them fiercely. Instantly, everyone shut up, and the scene was completely silent.
Yun Que'er standing on one side sneered. These villagers could gossip all they wanted, but they might not really be on her family's side.
As soon as Liu Kui glared at them, they became dejected. Anyway, she couldn't count on others to uphold justice for her. Without hope, there would be no disappointment.
Yun Que'er turned to look at Liu Yu. "Are you okay now? You're awake. What are you still sitting on the bed for? If we haven't sorted things out yet, let's go to the police station."
Liu Yu's alarm bells went off in his mind. He had been pretending so well, but unexpectedly, that kid Ji Chengxuan's needle had made his tears come out.
In a hurry, he wanted to pretend to be unconscious again, but Ji Chengxuan suddenly laughed.
"Don't move around. If this needle accidentally goes off - target, you might be paralyzed."
Liu Yu was startled and immediately retorted.
"Who are you scaring? A single prick and I'll be paralyzed?"
Saying that, Liu Yu wanted to pull out the needle on his hand.
"Don't move!" Ji Chengxuan raised his voice. "Don't you feel your hand hurting now? If it hurts, don't move. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen later. Everyone is watching. It's his own fault for moving around. If he becomes paralyzed in the future, it has nothing to do with me."
Under Ji Chengxuan's intimidation, Liu Yu stopped moving. He was like a wooden man and didn't dare to move at all, for fear that he would really end up lying on the kang for the rest of his life as Ji Chengxuan said.
Yun Que'er secretly laughed in her heart. Serves him right for pretending!
"You seem to have quite a bit of energy," Ji Chengxuan suddenly said. "Your voice is strong when you speak, and your body looks fine. You're perfectly okay."
Ji Chengxuan pulled out the needle in Liu Yu's hand. "If you're okay, then go. Go home early for lunch."
Liu Yu blushed with anger. Only then did he realize that he had been trapped by Ji Chengxuan. Paralyzed? Hemiplegia? It was all just to scare him and expose the fact that he wasn't knocked out by the fight at all but was actually full of energy.
