After Shu Ying removed all the needles, there was some slight bleeding from the deeper acupoints. Shu Ying used a cotton ball soaked in alcohol to clean the bloodstains from the needle holes.

"Do you feel any better in your legs?"

Xie Zhiyan tried moving his calves, and the original soreness had completely disappeared.

"It's definitely better than before. I feel like I can put weight on my legs. Can I try getting out of bed and walking around today?"

Shu Ying disinfected the needles and put them away again: "This is not something to be rushed. Let's wait a little longer. It's normal that you don't feel any pain right now after the acupuncture. You need to rest for a hundred days after a bone injury. You can try getting out of bed tomorrow, but the amount of exercise will depend on your physical condition."

Xie Zhiyan's forehead wound has completely healed. After removing the gauze, only a faint scar can be seen. Perhaps because of the spiritual spring water, the scar is much lighter than before.

Ye Zhanying couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "With your perseverance, you will succeed in whatever you do."

What are these ten most cruel tortures?

It's terrifying to even think about.

Shu Ying poured herself a glass of water and looked calmly at Ye Zhanying.

"I remember you said you weren't feeling well when you first came in? I've just finished my work, so I'll take a look at you while I'm at it."

Ye Zhanying got goosebumps all over her body. She thought acupuncture was just inserting needles, but she didn't expect that they would poke her a few times. If she really felt that movement, she might really kick the person away.

In Ye Zhanying's mind, Shu Ying's image suddenly transformed from a little white rabbit into a big bad wolf that would eat people.

The smile on her face was more like a grimace, and she quickly covered her waist with one hand, shaking her head violently.

"No, no, look at your memory. I clearly said that I feel comfortable everywhere lately."

This doctor is truly a miracle worker!

Shu Ying cured her chronic back pain that she had suffered from for many years with just one sentence; it was a complete cure without any medication.

Shu Ying pointed to the empty ward next to her: "Come on up here."

Ye Zhanying?

She's really healthy, in great shape!

"No, no, no, I really don't feel uncomfortable."

Qi Zecheng had a wicked idea: "Don't listen to her stubbornness. She's been complaining about back pain since last night. Give her a couple of treatments with that long needle you have."

Ye Zhanying was on the verge of tears: "I'm not sick, I'm really not sick."

She's never been afraid of anything since she was little, and she's never been afraid of needles before, but seeing Shu Ying poking around with such a long needle today terrified her.

Shu Ying put the needle away: "No need for acupuncture, it'll only take a few seconds."

Ye Zhanying looked at him with suspicion: "Really?"

Shu Ying nodded with utmost sincerity: "Yes."

Her eyes darted around, and she nervously lay down on the hospital bed. Shu Ying bent her legs and made her lie on her side.

She pressed her entire weight onto Ye Zhanying, one hand holding down her leg and the other supporting her waist, both hands exerting force in opposite directions.

"Snap—"

In the ward, the cracking sound of bones that could be heard made Qi Zecheng's eyes widen.

"Ah—I don't feel any pain at all, miracle doctor, I really don't feel any pain at all."

Ye Zhanying suddenly raised her head, and her wailing could be heard from the stairwell.

Shu Ying showed no mercy, pressing her seemingly weak hand against her entire spine with a "crackling" sound.

Ye Zhanying felt that Shu Ying was dismantling her bones, and every time she screamed loudly, it seemed to become a stimulant for Shu Ying.

Each time the bones cracked, it was immediately followed by a complete relaxation of the whole body.

This torture lasted for more than ten minutes before Shu Ying patted the bed next to her and said, "Alright, you can get up now. Move around and see if you feel any discomfort."

Ye Zhanying abruptly shut her mouth, which had been screaming wildly. She tentatively stood up from the hospital bed, twisted her neck and waist, and exclaimed, "Hey? It really doesn't hurt anymore! Have I grown taller?"

Qi Zecheng and Xie Zhiyan nodded in unison: "Visually, it does seem a little bit."

Shu Ying sat in the chair: "You like to cross your left leg, and you always look down. You don't use your buttocks to walk. You have too many bad habits. The bones are only temporarily back in place. If you don't change these bad habits, they will still go back to their original positions."

Ye Zhanying: ...

How do you know which leg to lift?

There are absolutely no secrets!

"What's going on? I just heard someone shouting very loudly outside."

Footsteps suddenly came from outside the ward; the sound came before anyone even entered.

Several people turned to look at the door. The door to the ward was half open, but Xie Wenyuan and Huang Meiling knocked on the door before coming in.

Shu Ying and Xie Zhiyan were both very surprised to see who had come.

Just as Xie Zhiyan was about to move on the hospital bed, Huang Meiling, her eyes red-rimmed, rushed over excitedly—

They bypassed Xie Zhiyan.

He hugged Shuying tightly!

"Yingying, you must have had a hard journey. You look so much thinner than before. It's not easy raising two children. I feel so sorry for you. Please sit down."

Xie Zhiyan: ...?

Ye Zhanying was a little confused; she had thought that Aunt Huang would be the first to hug Xie Zhiyan.

Xie Wenyuan walked in silently and put down what he was holding.

Shu Ying gently patted Huang Meiling's back.

"Mom, the people here have taken good care of me and the children. These past few days haven't been too hard. How did you and Dad manage to get here? It's already so late. You must have had a long drive. Have you had dinner yet?"

Xie Wenyuan and Huang Meiling are getting on in years, and their bodies might not be able to handle the long journey.

Huang Meiling wiped away her tears and pulled Shu Ying to sit down: "We were supposed to have a day off tomorrow, but we heard about your situation and the children's situation this afternoon. We knew you had arrived in Beijing, and since you and your father had a day off tomorrow, we decided to come over as soon as possible."

Xie Zhiyan paused in his attempt to get up, exchanged a final glance with Xie Wenyuan, and then simply lay back down.

"By the way, are you and the children alright?"

Shu Ying held her hand and nodded gently: "It's all good. It's just a bit late today, so I'll let the children go home first. The two children are well-behaved and obedient, and they're very easy to take care of."

Huang Meiling's eyes filled with tears: "That's good."

After exchanging pleasantries with Shu Ying, she remembered Xie Zhiyan, who was still waiting in the hospital bed.

"Zhiyan, how are your injuries?"

Qi Zecheng and Ye Zhanying exchanged a glance, decided to leave their time alone with the family, and tacitly walked away.

Xie Zhiyan has recovered most of his life: "I'm much better now. Yingying has been taking care of me these past few days. I just had acupuncture on my leg, and I don't feel any pain anymore. Dr. Liu said that I can be discharged from the hospital in about a week."
