Return to the City: The Strongest King
Chapter 2451 - 2245: It Came from This Cow_6
Doctor Zhang stabbed Zhang Lijiao's head like a porcupine ball, busy and sweating all over, unable to straighten his back. After wiping the sweat off his forehead, he took a breath and said to Zhang Lijiao, "Miss Zhang, have the symptoms relieved?"
Miss Zhang's face showed no sign of relief from the pain, but she forced a smile and said to Boss Niu, "Much better."
However, anyone could tell from Miss Zhang's expression that it didn't seem like she was feeling better.
"Doctor Zhang, the cold has invaded her body, the meridians are blocked, only stabbing acupoints on the head won't work." Song Xiaodong said to Doctor Zhang.
Doctor Zhang was a little annoyed when he heard Song Xiaodong's words. He turned around and said to Song Xiaodong, "Acupuncture emphasizes reaching the disease site directly for immediate results, wherever it hurts, stab there. Of course, I know Miss Zhang is invaded by cold evil, with obstructed discharge, but right now Miss Zhang is only here for migraine treatment."
Song Xiaodong retorted, "How is this different from an ostrich burying its head in the sand when encountering natural enemies?"
Doctor Zhang, a highly respected old practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, heard the young man's lack of manners, and his face darkened. He said to Song Xiaodong, "Three feet of ice does not form in a single day, even if acupuncture is effective, how can there be immediate changes?"
"Then what did you just say about 'immediate results'?" Song Xiaodong asked back.
"Then you treat it, let me see how you achieve immediate results!" Doctor Zhang stepped back and gestured for Song Xiaodong to come forward.
"Miss Zhang, may I give you a few needles as well?" Song Xiaodong asked Miss Zhang.
"Alright." Zhang Lijiao had originally planned for Song Xiaodong to treat her, but Boss Niu insisted on having Doctor Zhang treat her, resulting in her head being full of silver needles, yet her migraine was not relieved at all.
Upon hearing that Song Xiaodong wanted to give her acupuncture, she agreed without hesitation. After all, her head was already full of needles, adding a few more wouldn't matter.
"Miss Zhang, I need to give you a few needles on your back." Song Xiaodong said again.
"Alright."
A group of men naturally turned around to continue drinking and chatting, not looking at Zhang Lijiao.
Song Xiaodong administered a few needles on Zhang Lijiao's waist, causing her to let out a sigh of relief.
A group of internet giants couldn't help but turn their heads to see that the expression on Zhang Lijiao's face was significantly more comfortable.
"How is it, Miss Zhang?" Song Xiaodong asked Zhang Lijiao.
"Mr. Song is truly amazing, I feel so much better now! It doesn't hurt at all anymore! It's really strange, I clearly have a migraine, why does a few needles on my waist work? Yet, Doctor Zhang filled my head with silver needles and it didn't relieve my symptoms much." After saying this, Zhang Lijiao realized her words were inappropriate because Doctor Zhang was standing right there, and his face didn't look good.
Boss Niu's face was like he had swallowed a fly and didn't want others to notice, folding his arms across his chest, staring at Song Xiaodong's pleased expression without saying a word.
"Doctor Zhang might have thought that with so many people around, it was inconvenient to administer needles on Miss Zhang's waist, so he worked on the head instead, which affected the results." Song Xiaodong didn't forget to give Doctor Zhang some face, but wasn't it counterproductive? Everyone present saw that Song Xiaodong just administered a needle to Zhang Lijiao's waist, and now her complexion has visibly improved.
"Mr. Song's medical skills are profound. I, as an old man, am truly inferior. May I inquire, where did Mr. Song learn from?" Doctor Zhang wanted to find out more about Mr. Song's background.
"I don't have any formal tutelage; I just studied a few medical books on my own." Song Xiaodong didn't intend to disclose more.
"So, Mr. Song is self-taught? As the ancient saying goes, 'half of the Analects can govern the world.' Mr. Song's medical achievements with just a few medical books must mean he is a gift of heaven, a living medical sage, right?" Doctor Zhang sincerely believed Song Xiaodong was talented, admiring Song Xiaodong deeply, forgetting about Boss Niu's face.
Boss Niu's face became even uglier, and he couldn't help but interrupt Doctor Zhang, "Since Miss Zhang is already cured, you can step down, let's continue our meal."
Doctor Zhang initially wanted to have a deeper discussion about medical skills with Song Xiaodong, but Boss Niu clearly didn't intend to give Song Xiaodong the chance to showcase himself.
"Yes." Doctor Zhang bowed to Boss Niu, then withdrew. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and asked Song Xiaodong, "May I know your eminent surname?"
"Minghe Song Xiaodong."
"I will definitely call on you for guidance another day." After saying this, Doctor Zhang left, carefully closing the door of the restaurant's private room.
"You see, I said this Mr. Song's medical skill is like Hua Tuo reincarnated and Bian Que reborn, truly a remarkable person. That's why I had to introduce Mr. Song to all you internet bigwigs." Zhou Yuanzhi, feeling proud, said to Boss Niu and all present.
"Indeed, Mr. Song is truly a 'God,' everything Director Zhou said was true. One needle, and it worked! With just one needle, my migraine was immediately relieved!" Zhang Lijiao also told everyone.
"Ho ho ho ho," Boss Niu forced a really unpleasant smile at Zhang Lijiao and Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Come, come, since it's Boss Niu's treat today, let's offer a toast to Boss Niu!" Wang Shangjin raised his cup and said to everyone.
"Good, good, good..."
Wang Shangjin diverted the topic, and everyone raised their glasses to toast Boss Niu, shifting their attention back to him.
After a few drinks, Boss Niu's face started glowing red, and he began happily boasting with Wang Shangjin and Ma Jiayi. Mid-conversation, his phone in the bag rang.
Boss Niu picked up his phone, and upon seeing that it was Deputy Director Zhang Ping from Ningjian Province's tax bureau calling, his face, which had been full of smiles moments earlier, suddenly turned serious and panicked. He made a shushing gesture to everyone, who quickly fell silent, and Boss Niu promptly answered the call with a smiling face.
