"I haven't finished speaking yet. How do you know it won't work?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Shi Tongxuan stepped forward. "Everyone knows that rehabilitation is a long - drawn - out process. It's only been two weeks. To claim a recovery now, isn't that a fraud?"
"Teacher Shi, although you're a doctor, you're just a clinical doctor. Even if your research institute has developed a drug for Parkinson's, that's not the same as full recovery."
Everyone frowned. Although they didn't really like seeing Shi Wan looking so confident, it was inappropriate for an intern to mock a teacher...
Shi Tongxuan didn't notice everyone's looks. "Teacher Shi, stop wasting time. If you really can do it, just wake the old woman up right now."
"I'm still a bit nervous." Shi Wan curled her lips. "You think I can't do it?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Let's make a bet?"
"What are we betting on?" Shi Tongxuan, being a medical student herself, was certain that a recovery in two weeks was impossible.
So she readily agreed to bet with Shi Wan.
"Hmm... if you lose... forget it. You probably don't have much money right now." She sized Shi Tongxuan up and down. "There's really nothing on you that I want."
Shi Tongxuan's face suddenly turned ugly. "I don't have money? I have so much money I could crush you!"
Knowing that Shi Wan would soon lose her confidence, she didn't hold back her words.
Shi Wan's eyes lit up. "Then let's bet on money!"
Everyone: ".......?"
Was she planning to make a fortune before leaving?
"Fine. If I win, you'll leave the hospital and never be allowed to enter it again!"
"Deal. But you'll have to pay more if you lose."
"Sure. Isn't it just money? One million!"
"Ten million."
"What? You might as well just rob me!"
Shi Tongxuan almost swore.
"If you don't agree, forget it."
She glanced nervously at the old woman.
Shi Tongxuan's eyes flickered. Did Shi Wan deliberately say such a high amount because she was afraid of losing the bet?
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. She sneered. "Fine!"
The others also placed their bets. Obviously, everyone bet on Shi Wan losing.
Seeing this, Shi Wan was in a great mood. She ignored the woman beside her, but it didn't stop her from looking at others. After placing her own bet, she urged,
"Hurry up. Don't waste time."
Shi Wan stepped forward and softly woke the old woman up.
Half a minute passed, and the old woman didn't get up.
One minute... two minutes...
Almost five minutes had passed, and the old woman still hadn't gotten up.
"See, I told you it was impossible. At first, the old woman could maintain her balance, but now she can't even sit up?"
"Really... a miracle?!"
"Damn it! What's going on?!"
In front of everyone's eyes, the old woman got up with red eyes, got out of bed, and stood in front of everyone.
The expression "almost dropping their jaws" perfectly described their current state.
"Am... am I dreaming?"
"Mom, I've seen a fairy..."
"How is this possible?!"
Some couldn't believe it, while others flat - out refused to believe.
But the old woman was really standing there, and she even raised her hand and slapped the woman neatly.
The sound was loud. "You've been so well - raised! I was sick, and you didn't even come to see me once!"
"Mom..."
The woman covered her face and stared blankly at the old woman.
This... how was this possible?
"Doctor Shi, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I might have been gone by now."
The old woman held Shi Wan's hand and bowed to thank her.
"You're welcome. It's what we doctors should do."
The people standing beside them were so embarrassed that they wanted to dig a hole in the ground. Thinking about what they had just said, they felt that Shi Wan's words were an implicit criticism of them.
"This... how did the old woman recover? It's only been two weeks. This is a medical miracle, isn't it?"
After the embarrassment, someone finally asked the question. Their looks towards Shi Wan were a mix of jealousy and envy.
If they had this skill, they could go anywhere in the world.
It was so frustrating to compare themselves to others.
"Rehabilitation isn't my specialty. It was still a bit difficult for me."
As if it wasn't enough to shock them, she said slowly.
This was the truth. If not for the time wasted before, the old woman wouldn't have taken two weeks to stand up.
The things rewarded by the system were really useful.
Everyone: "......"
To be honest, they couldn't have restored the old woman to this state even in five years. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it at all.
How on earth did Shi Wan do it?
Shi Tongxuan had been standing there in a daze. This... how was this possible?
A devil!
She was definitely not human!
"Classmate, I'm wondering when you're going to fulfill our bet?"
Just as Shi Tongxuan was about to sneak away, Shi Wan's lazy and cheerful voice stopped her.
"I... this doesn't count at all." Shi Tongxuan's eyes lit up. "The old woman couldn't have recovered like this. You must have used some means, or maybe the old woman's condition wasn't that serious in the first place."
"How can you talk like that, young girl?" The old woman couldn't stand it anymore. "You were the one taking care of me back then. Every day, you either pushed me onto others or made me do things on my own. You were so irresponsible. My condition not only didn't improve but got worse. Now that I'm better, why can't you just be happy for me?"
"I..."
Shi Tongxuan panicked. She had forgotten that Shi Wan had been in charge of the old woman recently.
"Rehabilitation usually involves the therapist guiding, but most of the time, it's the patient who has to be active. Otherwise, what's the point of rehabilitation? Moreover, rehabilitation is a long - term process. If you can see results in a short period, would it still be long - term rehabilitation?"
"You..."
"You do have a point. However, you can take the old woman for a check - up to see how her body is. As for her rehabilitation, you should be the most aware of it."
Shi Wan said calmly.
Shi Tongxuan gritted her teeth. She wasn't stupid enough to really take the old woman for a check - up.
She had been tricked once. If she went again, she'd only be humiliating herself.
"Anyway, I'll never believe it. Although you're a highly - skilled doctor, rehabilitation isn't that simple. As a clinical doctor, you can't possibly have in - depth knowledge of this."
"I'm really sorry, but I do have a certificate in this area."
Shi Tongxuan and the others stared with wide eyes, cursing in their hearts. What kind of little freak was this?
They thought she was just dabbled in it, but it turned out she was a certified professional.
"I don't believe it!"
"What are we betting on?" Shi Wan curled her lips. "No, you already owe me ten million. You probably don't have anything else to bet with."
"You!"
Shi Tongxuan was so angry that her face turned red, but she had to admit that Shi Wan was right.
Ten million was basically all her assets. Even if her family was rich, she couldn't just ask them for money.
"Remember to transfer the money to my card."
Shi Wan recited a string of numbers and helped the old woman leave.
"Wait." The woman who had been slapped by the old woman finally came to her senses. "Are you sure the things you used on my mom won't cause any harm?"
