Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 86 - 0084 Silver Needle Acupoint

Chu Yao stopped her mother’s wild guessing and insisted that Ye Qiu was really just a classmate. Even if she borrowed the money from Ye Qiu, she would definitely pay it back in the future.

Chu’s mother looked into her daughter’s earnest eyes and sighed, "You’re a smart child; just don’t ruin your whole life, that’s all I care about. I don’t mind anything else, as long as you have a happy future."

Hearing this, Chu Yao’s tears could no longer be held back, and the mother and daughter embraced each other.

After a while, Chu Yao wiped away her tears and got ready to find the hospital’s doctor to arrange the surgery.

Ye Qiu and Chu Yao arrived at the attending physician’s office.

"Is the patient in bed 32 your mother?" the tall and thin elderly doctor said.

Chu Yao nodded.

"You’ve come at the right time. I was just about to inform a family member of your mother’s situation. Since you’re here, I’ll tell you now."

"Truth be told, your mother’s condition is not optimistic. If we operate, the chances of failure are much higher than those of success."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yao’s expression changed instantly. She hurriedly said, "Doctor, you must save my mother, I already have the surgery fee, you must save her."

Chu Yao pleaded.

"Child, as a doctor, of course, I want to cure all patients, but your mother’s condition is very serious. If it had been treated earlier, the situation would have been much easier but now..." The doctor sighed and did not continue.

"The tumor in your mother’s brain is pressing on the brain stem and the central nervous system. As it continues to develop, your mother will become blind and, if it gets worse, it will compress the brain, causing dementia, or even a stroke."

"If we don’t operate, that’s the worst-case scenario. But if the surgery is unsuccessful and the tumor bursts, there’s an eighty percent chance of brain death."

The doctor’s message was clear; it was better not to operate and rely on medication to maintain the current state. Otherwise, failure in surgery would mean the end of life.

Chu Yao didn’t know what to do. She hoped her mother’s condition would not worsen, and she hoped the surgery would be successful, but the doctor’s response left her feeling somewhat hopeless.

With a helpless look on her face, Chu Yao turned to Ye Qiu who supported her, saying, "Auntie will be fine, don’t worry."

Ring ring ring!

Just then, the alarm for an emergency rescue sounded in the corridor, stating, "The patient in bed 32 of the general ward has fallen into a coma..."

What...

Upon hearing it was her mother’s bed, Chu Yao’s vision darkened, and she nearly fainted.

The doctor quickly grabbed his tools and rushed out of the office toward the general ward. Chu Yao shook her head, claiming she was fine, and worried about her mother’s condition, she and Ye Qiu also hurried towards the ward.

Four doctors surrounded the bed, treating Chu’s mother who had fallen into a coma. With the aid of various medical devices, the heart monitor went from fluctuating to steady, allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Brother Ye Qiu." Niu Yinyin was frightened to see Chu’s mother collapse in front of her. She had stayed behind to chat with Chu’s mother, but suddenly, the latter frothed at the mouth and passed out. Upon seeing Ye Qiu, as if seeing a family member, she clung to his arm and refused to let go.

Ye Qiu gently patted Niu Yinyin’s head to comfort her.

After the patient was resuscitated, the attending doctor among the four turned to Chu Yao and said, "Your mother’s condition has worsened. It’s already compressing the nerves, which caused the coma and cardiac arrest."

"The condition is much more serious than I thought. The tumor is spreading too quickly. I’m afraid surgery might not be an option anymore."

That surgery couldn’t be performed implied there was no way to cure her mother and that there would only be one outcome.

Chu Yao couldn’t bear to think about it. She didn’t want her mother to leave her before she could provide a better life for her.

"Doctor, I beg you, no matter what, you have to cure my mother." Chu Yao suddenly made a shocking move and knelt down in front of the attending doctor.

"No, it’s not that we refuse to help, but the current situation is very bad. Please get up,"

Seeing that Chu Yao refused to rise, the attending physician relented, "Alright, how about this: I’ll hold a consultation with several experts specifically for your mother’s condition. If we can come up with a solution, we will definitely cure your mother, alright?"

"Thank you, doctor."

Chu Yao nodded her thanks repeatedly, watching the doctor leave the ward.

Because she had to wait for the medical plan that the doctors would come up with, Chu Yao missed classes, and as a result, Ye Qiu also skipped classes with her.

An hour later, the attending physician found Chu Yao again and shook his head, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

The risk of surgery was too high; it was very likely to result in the patient’s death. And if the patient died, the doctors would be held responsible. Perhaps due to the desire to protect their own reputations, no doctor wanted to undertake surgery with such a low chance of success.

Even with enough money, was it impossible to solve her mother’s illness?

Chu Yao stood there in a daze, feeling as if the whole world was beginning to blur.

"Chu Yao..."

Ye Qiu steadied Chu Yao as she blacked out.

When Chu Yao regained consciousness, she immediately ran to her mother’s bedside. Unable to undergo surgery, her mother’s condition would only deteriorate, becoming more severe, and the date of life’s cut-off was drawing ever closer.

Chu Yao’s face was filled with reluctance and heartache, all of which Ye Qiu saw.

"Chu Yao, I might be able to treat Auntie’s illness."

"What did you say?" Chu Yao stood up suddenly, grabbing Ye Qiu’s hand as if clutching at the last straw, her eyes sparkling with hope.

"Can you really save my mother?" Chu Yao asked again.

"There’s a sixty percent chance," Ye Qiu said with a smile, not making any promises, but to Chu Yao, a sixty percent chance still seemed like a very good one. If it meant her mother could live, she didn’t mind taking the gamble.

In Ye Qiu’s view, Chu Yao’s mother’s illness was treatable, not as terrible as the chief physician had said. With his methods, he could easily cure her. The only reason he had hesitated was that his approach was based on traditional Chinese medicine, and he knew that nowadays, people believed in Western medicine, which had a deep-rooted status in their minds.

"Ye Qiu, please treat my mother quickly. Here’s three hundred thousand for you, and even if it costs me a million, I want my mother to live," Chu Yao urged eagerly.

"My method isn’t an overnight cure; it requires treatment over a period of time."

"As long as it can cure my mother, any amount of time is fine."

After giving Chu Yao a precaution, Ye Qiu took out his tools from his body.

Ye Qiu drew out one slender silver needle after another, rows of them, of all sizes, several dozen in total, which made Chu Yao’s expression freeze.

Silver needles?

Could Ye Qiu really use acupuncture?

Although Chu Yao had never encountered traditional Chinese medicine, she had heard of acupuncture. Could it really cure her mother just like that?

Chu Yao was somewhat skeptical at heart, but she chose to believe in Ye Qiu anyway, because the doctors had no solution for her mother’s illness. If Ye Qiu could indeed heal her mother, why not let him try?

Ye Qiu’s use of silver needles attracted quite a few onlookers; even a nearby nurse leaned over to take a look, then hurried out to report to the other doctors.

Ye Qiu gently inserted the silver needles one by one into Chu Yao’s mother’s head, kneading the needles in his hands with focused expression, channeling wisps of True Qi through them.
