"Don't pull the needles!" Huang Shanshan said urgently. She trusted Li Se's medical skills almost unconditionally. If the needles were removed, the previous acupuncture would be wasted, and it might even worsen the condition.
"If the needles aren't pulled, are we supposed to keep them for the New Year?" The woman who brought the Western doctor sneered, "Justin is from the American Medical Association, and he's even the Vice President!"
Li Se was stunned when he heard "Vice President." "If I remember correctly, the Vice President of the American Medical Association should be Charles, right?"
Justin glanced at Li Se with a hint of disdain. "What do you know? Don't speak nonsense if you don't understand. What Charles? I am the Vice President of the American Medical Association."
"Yes, if you don't understand, don't pretend to!" the woman chimed in.
Xu Qing clearly trusted Justin and her friend more. She quickly said, "Dr. Justin, please treat my daughter quickly."
Without any hesitation, Justin removed all the acupuncture needles from the girl's body. However, the girl showed no reaction. He took out a syringe and injected something into her body.
In less than five minutes, the girl on the bed began to convulse.
"What's going on?" Xu Qing's expression changed slightly.
"It's all because of the previous acupuncture," Justin sneered, glancing at Li Se and Huang Shanshan not far away. "How can traditional Chinese medicine treat kidney failure?"
The woman beside her added, "Xu Qing, you're too careless. You shouldn't resort to just any doctor when you're desperate."
Xu Qing's face turned grim. She looked at Li Se and Huang Shanshan and said coldly, "Fortunately, Dr. Justin appeared today. Otherwise, my daughter would have been killed by you!"
Huang Shanshan wanted to say something. She was very sure that it had nothing to do with the acupuncture, but Li Se stopped her. "No matter what you say now, she won't listen."
Huang Shanshan understood Li Se's intention. She looked at the girl on the sickbed and asked, "What was injected just now? Why did she suddenly become like this?"
"I'm not too sure, but this Justin is likely a fake," Li Se whispered to Huang Shanshan.
Huang Shanshan's expression also changed. She said anxiously, "Then won't this harm the girl?"
Li Se smiled and shook his head. "Watch, there will probably be a follow-up!"
By now, he was almost certain that this Justin was a swindler. What was injected just now must have been something that harmed the girl's body. People like him were no different from that Daoist Huang; they were all after profit.
Justin took out another syringe and injected some unknown liquid into the girl. Soon, the girl stopped convulsing and seemed much calmer. He smiled and said, "She's fine now. Don't casually seek out traditional Chinese medicine in the future; it's harmful!"
"Thank you, Dr. Justin," Xu Qing said gratefully.
The woman nudged Xu Qing's arm, giving her a meaningful look.
Xu Qing understood and immediately took out a bank card, handing it to Justin. "Dr. Justin, this is one million. Thank you for your treatment. If you had arrived any later, my daughter would have been in a terrible state."
Justin waved his hand. "It's the duty of a physician."
Despite his words, he accepted the bank card smoothly. Then, he took out a few small bottles and said to Xu Qing, "These are all my specially made miracle drugs for kidney function. If your daughter feels unwell, she can use them directly. However, the price..."
"No problem, no problem," Xu Qing agreed repeatedly.
"What are these medicines?" Huang Shanshan, though appearing cold, still had a kind heart. She walked over, wanting to pick up a bottle to examine it.
The woman next to her slapped her hand away. "These are specially made by Dr. Justin, specifically for kidney failure. You can't touch them casually."
Of course, these were not special miracle drugs. She was worried that Huang Shanshan would see through them.
These few bottles of liquid cost Xu Qing a full five hundred thousand. It had to be said that it was really easy to make money from the rich, Li Se couldn't help but sigh.
"Could this be a sedative?" Li Se suddenly asked.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Justin's expression flickered. "These are miracle drugs developed by our American Medical Association. How dare you call them sedatives? Young people shouldn't speak carelessly if they don't understand!"
Li Se took out his phone and searched for Charles, then showed everyone the result. "If you are the Vice President, then who is this Charles?"
To be honest, this Justin was more detestable than Charles. At least Charles possessed medical skills, even if he looked down on traditional Chinese medicine. But at least he wouldn't be like this Justin, exploiting patients' bodies for profit. For someone of Charles's status, social standing was more important, so he wouldn't risk such actions for a little money.
"You are not the Vice President of the American Medical Association at all!" Upon seeing the information on the phone, Xu Qing's expression changed. It clearly showed that Charles was the Vice President of the American Medical Association. This meant that the foreigner in front of her was not a Vice President at all.
Justin's face turned green and then white. The matter had been exposed just like that. He hadn't expected Li Se to know the Vice President of the American Medical Association, and that it was indeed Charles.
"Liu Fang, who is this you brought?" Xu Qing asked her close friend coldly.
Liu Fang's face also turned pale. In fact, she had colluded with Justin to deceive Xu Qing for money. The main reason was that the money was too easy to make. With this, one hundred and fifty million was in hand. Who wouldn't be tempted?
"Xu Qing, listen to my explanation. I didn't know either. He said he was the Vice President..." Liu Fang tried to argue.
"I don't want to hear your explanation!" Xu Qing took out her phone and called her husband, explaining the situation. Then, she said coldly to Liu Fang and Justin, "Go explain to my husband!"
Justin didn't know Xu Qing's husband's identity, but Liu Fang did. He was the director of the Public Security Bureau. If Xu Qing's husband found out she had scammed money, he would definitely be arrested. She pleaded with Xu Qing, "Xu Qing, it really has nothing to do with me. I didn't know his identity either; he scammed me..."
"You don't need to explain to me!" Xu Qing retorted coldly.
Not long after, Xu Qing's husband arrived, wearing a police uniform and accompanied by several subordinates. After learning about the situation at home, he brought his men over and arrested Justin and Liu Fang. He also brought a doctor who was quite famous in Qingyun City.
After taking the girl's pulse, the doctor frowned. "This is bad. The first liquid injected was poisonous, and the subsequent injection was a sedative."
"Divine Doctor Hua, you must save my daughter!" Tian Anming pleaded.
Hua De shook his head. "It's too difficult."
"I can treat her, but my consultation fee is ten million!"
At this moment, Li Se's voice rang out.
