(Pure traditional Chinese medicine, no fluff)
In the emergency department of City Hospital No. 1, the ECG line stretches into a glaring straight line. The Western medicine department head shakes his head and sighs. “The brain stem is damaged. Prepare for the worst.”
Outside the resuscitation room, my uncle, aunt, and other relatives sneer. “We told you to get a stable government job, but you wouldn’t listen. You went and studied that useless Chinese medicine, and now you can’t even save your own mother. Don’t expect us to lend you the 50,000 yuan for surgery!”
I turn cold, kick open the resuscitation room door, and pull out the acupuncture kit I always carry.
“Are you crazy? This is the emergency room! What are you going to do with a few lousy needles?”
I don’t bother answering. With my fingers connected to my heart, I prick the vessels and let the blood flow! Needles flash as I apply heavy moxibustion to Baihui!
As the nurses and security guards stare in utter horror, three seconds later
“Beep! Beep! Beep!”
The monitor miraculously starts beating again. Her blood pressure rises, and I drag her back from the gates of death! The room falls silent!
My name is Luo Yuxiu. I spent 7.8 years studying at a university of Chinese medicine, only to get a harsh dose of reality. Now I earn a base salary of 3,500 yuan at a community clinic as a “bone-setting technician.”
Everyone thinks I’m a joke.
My parasitic relatives use me as a stepping stone, pressuring me to become the fall guy for a suggestive livestreamer.
A female executive at an upscale private hospital tries to throw money at me, demanding that I take off my clothes and serve a wealthy VIP woman.
Beep...
