Chapter 116: My Savior

Chapter 116: My Savior

Lu Ye glanced at the leaders of the military hospital, then at his dignified grandfather, and his eyes flickered slightly.

Why did even the people from the military hospital get involved?

"Director Chen, what brings you here?"

Director Chen glanced at the upright old man, forced a smile, and replied, "I've come to report the situation to Chief Lu."

This so-called situation naturally refers to Lu Ye's physical condition.

Lu Ye naturally understood that his grandfather now knew everything that had happened to him.

He walked up to Grandpa Lu and said, feigning composure, "Grandpa, I'm alright."

Old Master Lu's imposing eyes shot towards him, and he roared, "Shut up!"

Lu Ye was completely bewildered by the old man's outburst.

He touched his nose and stepped back.

Compared to his strictness towards Lu Ye, Old Master Lu had a completely different attitude towards Bai Zhi.

"Xiao Zhi, come and sit down." When Grandpa Lu saw the girl following behind Lu Ye, his eyes were filled with gratitude. He stood up, walked shakily to Bai Zhi, grasped her hand, and said in a trembling voice, "Xiao Zhi, you are the benefactor of the Lu family."

"Your grandfather saved my life back then, and now you've saved Lu Ye. Child, what can I say? Your Bai family has been a great benefactor to the Lu family for generations!"

Old Lu looked at Lu Hai, who was the last to walk in, and glanced behind him. Not seeing Wang Shufen, he asked, "Xiao Hai, has your mother gone home?"

Lu Hai replied, "My mom is waiting in the car."

Old Master Lu ordered, "Go, bring her in."

Looking at his grandfather's serious and gloomy face, Lu Hai had a strange sense of foreboding.

After all, his mother had targeted Bai Zhi earlier today.

Is the old man about to settle accounts?

He was about to brush it off when Old Lu urged again, "What are you standing there for? Go and call her in, I have something to say."

"Oh." Lu Hai didn't dare to argue and had no choice but to go out.

Soon, he helped Wang Shufen inside.

Wang Shufen had been through a long day, and her joints were stiff. She really didn't want to move and just wanted to go home and lie down. When Lu Hai told her that the old man was calling her in, she didn't want to come in at first, but when Lu Hai said that people from the military hospital were also there, Wang Shufen suddenly became interested.

Lu Hai also said that the old man had just announced that Bai Zhi was Lu Ye's savior.

Curious about what had happened, Wang Shufen endured the pain and was helped inside by Lu Hai.

She was taken aback by the many serious faces in the room when she entered.

My elder brother and sister-in-law, Lu Shan, were both there.

There were also a few unfamiliar male comrades, who should be the leaders of the military compound that Lu Hai mentioned.

Seeing Wang Shufen enter, Old Master Lu said solemnly, "The whole family is here today, so I hereby formally declare that anyone who targets Bai Zhi again is targeting me. No matter who it is, I will kick them out."

At this point, Old Master Lu looked at Wang Shufen and reprimanded her with a stern face, "Especially you, Shufen, you are my daughter-in-law. You have been married into the Lu family for so many years, and I have never spoken harshly to you. But if you bully Xiaozhi again in the future, don't blame me for turning my back on you. She is Lu Ye's savior, which means she is the savior of all the Lu family members. You must have at least the most basic respect for her."

Wang Shufen was named, and she pursed her lips, daring not to speak out in anger.

"Did you hear that?" Old Lu asked sternly when he saw Wang Shufen standing there without saying a word.

She lowered her head and responded sullenly, "I heard you."

She lived to her early forties and had been married into the Lu family for over twenty years; today was the most humiliating day of her life.

She wrote it down.

Xie Yun looked at her seriously and warned, "That's right, Shufen, we hope that what happened today will not happen again, otherwise, your Lao Lu and I will not forgive you."

Even Xie Yun stood up and publicly defended Bai Zhi, while Wang Shufen could only roll her eyes.

Deep down, I was filled with more doubts.

Lu Ye was given acupuncture by Bai Zhi because he was weak.

How did he suddenly become my savior?

What exactly did she do?

Whose life did I save?

After warning Wang Shufen, Old Lu looked at Director Chen and asked, "What is your hospital doing? You sent Lu Ye here before he had even recovered?"

Director Chen wiped away a cold sweat and explained,

"Commander Lu, when Company Commander Lu was discharged from the hospital, his gunshot wound had basically healed. As for the drug poisoning in his body, our hospital's expert team worked very hard to overcome it. However, the situation was urgent at the time, and it was the first time the expert team had encountered such a difficult problem, so..."

"Fortunately, we had Dr. Xiaobai. At the time, due to the hospital's policy, and... and Commander Lu's request, we had no choice but to discharge him. Fortunately, we heard that Commander Lu's condition has now stabilized, which makes us very relieved."

After Director Chen finished explaining, he looked to Lu Zheng'an for help, signaling him to step forward and explain.

Lu Zheng'an met Director Chen's pleading gaze and said to the old man,

"Dad, the military hospital has done its job well in Xiaoye's case. Xiaoye's condition has improved, so please don't make trouble for him."

After carefully examining Lu Ye, and seeing that he indeed showed no abnormalities, Old Master Lu's expression relaxed somewhat.

Director Chen walked up to Bai Zhi, gestured for her to sit down, and addressed her respectfully, "Dr. Bai, please sit down."

Bai Zhi nodded and sat down in the chair.

Director Chen got down to business with her, "Dr. Bai, how is Company Commander Lu doing now? Does he still need treatment?"

Bai Zhi replied, "This is the last acupuncture session today. After that, all you need to do is moxibustion and herbal decoction."

"How long will the treatment take?" Director Chen asked. "Are we in the control or treatment phase now? How long will it take before we can stop taking the medication? Can all the drug toxins in your body be eliminated?"

Bai Zhi explained, "We are now in the stabilization phase, clearing away any remaining drug toxins from the body. This process is quite lengthy."

"Well... I'm an amateur, so some of my questions might be offensive. Please forgive me." Director Chen hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at Bai Zhi and Lu Ye and tentatively asked, "If Company Commander Lu stops all treatment now, will he have a relapse like before?"

If the symptoms recur after stopping the moxibustion, then their hospital will no longer consider this treatment method.

As soon as Director Chen finished speaking, everyone in the room fell silent and turned to look at Bai Zhi and Lu Ye.

Director Chen nervously wiped his sweat, then smiled and tried to smooth things over, "I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to know the true condition of Company Commander Lu. Our hospital has been continuously developing treatment plans for this condition for some time now."

“I don’t know what will happen if we suddenly stop the medication now,” Bai Zhi said. “Based on our treatment experience, it takes three months for the drug toxins to be completely eliminated from the body.”

She looked at Director Chen and continued, "I don't want Lu Ye to risk suffering just to prove whether my treatment is effective. I'll wait until he's drunk the herbal medicine for three months before stopping and seeing how things go."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng'an also solemnly stated, "Yes, yes, we believe in Xiao Zhi's treatment plan. We will stop the medication after three months, and we must not stop the treatment arbitrarily in the middle."

Last time, that quack doctor, Director Zhou, proposed such a ridiculous plan.

They told Bai Zhi to stop treating Lu Ye so they could check Lu Ye's true condition.

It almost led to a major disaster.
