Chapter 234: Just Get Married
After a full hour, Song Xiaodong finally finished administering the acupuncture. By then, he was utterly exhausted and had to be helped into an adjacent room to rest by Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan.
In the next room, Ning Chongqing was checking on the elderly gentleman. After a while, he couldn’t help shaking his head repeatedly.
"Professor Ning, how is it?" Ding Shanhuan asked anxiously.
Ning Chongqing said, "The old man’s heartbeat is strong. I estimate he will wake up soon. Song Shenzhen really lives up to his reputation."
Ding Shanhuan immediately burst with joy, but then felt somewhat depressed. If things were so good, why was Professor Ning still shaking his head and sighing? Little did he know that Ning Chongqing was in awe of Song Xiaodong’s formidable ability, while he himself practiced Western Medicine and could not learn anything from watching Song Xiaodong perform acupuncture.
After a while, the old gentleman actually opened his eyes and even claimed he was hungry and wanted to eat. This was beyond exciting for all members of the Ding family—it had been days since the old gentleman had eaten anything.
In the living room, Ding Haixing’s face had turned as black as coal. His leg was broken, and at this moment, not a single person was attending to him. He was left to groan in pain, occasionally receiving scornful glances from passersby.
When Ding Shanhuan and the other Ding family members finally came downstairs, Ding Haixing immediately called out, "Dad, don’t let that charlatan deceive you. He asks for a million a day—that guy is a big fraudster aiming to swindle our Ding family’s money."
"You foolish child!" Ding Shanhuan raised his hand and smacked Ding Haixing across the face with a heavy slap.
"Dad, why are you hitting me?" Ding Haixing covered his face, a look of grief and indignation on his face.
