Absolutely Perfect

Upon hearing that a patient had arrived, Cui Pu stopped arguing with Qin Mo, quickly put down the medicinal herbs, and hurried towards the main hall.

Qin Mo followed behind, also intending to check the situation.

As he passed by Lin Wanqing, he heard her say coolly, "Qin Mo, even if you want to go against me, this method you've come up with is far too unwise."

"You graduated with a finance degree, what medical skills could you possibly have?"

"Don't think I don't know, you were just guessing what you were saying earlier, weren't you?"

Qin Mo glanced at her: "Don't overestimate yourself. If I wanted to oppose you, you wouldn't even have the chance to stand here and talk to me right now."

After saying that, he quickly followed Cui Pu.

"What...what did he just say?"

Lin Wanqing stood there stunned for a moment, then turned to Qiu Yue in disbelief and asked, "He actually said I'm not good enough?"

Qiu Yue scoffed, "Wanqing, don't worry about it. He's just trying to get attention. The more you care, the more you fall into his trap!"

"Yes, that must be it." Lin Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, then gritted her teeth: "Let's go! We'll go out too. I want to see how long he can keep up this act!"

A group of people came to the lobby, where seven or eight people had already gathered.

Judging from their appearance, they are residents from the surrounding area.

The sick man was a man in his forties or fifties, who was carried over on a door plank.

The person was curled up on the door panel, writhing in pain, their face ashen, their clothes soaked with cold sweat.

His wife looked anxious and pleaded as soon as she saw Cui Pu come out, "Master Cui, please take a look at my husband! He's been like this for over two hours!"

"Don't rush, let me take a look."

Cui Pu calmed the woman down and was about to examine the man when Qin Mo behind him spoke up: "Is his limbs cold, and is he nauseous but unable to vomit?"

"I've been feeling cold lately, but I also experience a burning sensation in my chest, and I'm thirsty but don't want to drink water?"

Suddenly someone spoke up, and everyone looked towards Qin Mo.

Lin Wanqing was the first to express her displeasure: "Qin Mo, stop talking nonsense. Do you really think you're so lucky that you can guess right every time?"

She thought Qin Mo's attention-seeking behavior was really unsightly.

But the next second, the middle-aged woman responded, "Yes, yes, that's it! How did you know?"

Not to mention Lin Wanqing, even Cui Pu turned around abruptly, staring at Qin Mo in disbelief.

After all, even though he had his own guesses, he still needed to examine the pulse and ask questions carefully to find out the details.

But Qin Mo had only been in the lobby for half a minute when he noticed something was amiss.

Ignoring everyone's gaze, Qin Mo calmly said to Cui Pu, "You can try it. His pulse should be deep and taut right now, especially noticeable in the right Guan position."

"It can only be felt by pressing hard down to the bone, and the rhythm is irregular, with occasional 'knots' appearing."

"It is a symptom of excessive internal cold, sudden blockage of Qi, and damage to the heart vessels, which is... cold syncope."

He finished speaking in one breath, and among the crowd, apart from Cui Pu whose eyes grew brighter and brighter, everyone else was completely confused.

Qiu Yue crossed her arms and mercilessly exposed him: "Alright, alright, you're a good-for-nothing, what do you know about medicine?"

"You've only learned a couple of lines and you're already spouting nonsense. If someone's life is lost, can you take responsibility?"

"Shut up already!"

But Cui Pu was already taking the pulse when he blurted out, "No, that's not right, he's not talking nonsense!"

Qiu Yue's mocking smile froze for a moment: "What?"

"This person's pulse is exactly as you described, young man. This is a case of cold extremities, a critical condition!"

The man's pulse was exactly as Qin Mo had described.

"This is impossible!" Qiu Yue almost cried out, "He's never studied medicine, how could he possibly know how to take a pulse!"

"It must be you. You're the actors he hired, right?"

She pointed to the older woman who had brought the person.

The older woman, already angry from the reprimand, was now even more bewildered: "Hey, young lady, what nonsense are you spouting? Who would joke about their man's life like that?"

"I think you're acting strangely, little girl. Maybe you're mentally ill."

"You're here to have Old Cui check your brain, right?"

The older woman wouldn't let her get away with it and launched into a tirade of abuse.

Accompanying her were several burly men who helped carry her, and their eyes were full of hostility as they looked at Qiu Yue.

Lin Wanqing and Qiu Yue used to be the center of attention wherever they went. When have they ever been looked down upon like this by a bunch of inferior people?

But for the sake of their image, they couldn't get angry; they could only glare at Qin Mo with resentment.

Lin Wanqing spoke up: "Alright, Qin Mo, stop fooling around and clarify that you are not a doctor at all."

"Don't mislead Dr. Cui here and delay the treatment."

Qin Mo was completely too lazy to talk to her anymore, and his gaze fell on the old lady: "Auntie, did your husband lose his temper today, and did he drink any iced drinks, especially cold alcoholic beverages?"

The woman nodded quickly upon hearing this: "Yes, yes, he has a bad temper. We had a huge fight today, and he drank a can of ice-cold beer in anger this morning..."

"Could this be... the reason?"

Qin Mo grunted in agreement, then turned to Cui Pu and said, "Elder Cui, you can hurry up and administer the acupuncture. If it's any later, he'll really be in excruciating pain."

However, Cui Pu, who had been diagnosed with the symptoms, did not take any action.

"I……"

He looked troubled, and his fingers trembled slightly.

Qin Mo didn't say anything, but stepped forward and said, "Let me do it."

Cui Pu asked with some doubt, "You?"

"First, use filiform needles to puncture the Neiguan, Tanzhong, and Zhongwan acupoints to promote Yang, disperse stagnation, regulate Qi, and open the gates."

"Then, with a three-edged needle, pierce the ten acupoints and let out a few drops of blood..."

Qin Mo spoke very quickly and directly explained the first aid method.

They even specified exactly what herbal medicine would be needed afterward.

The more Cui Pu listened, the more delighted he became.

Qin Mo's treatment method and prescription were exactly the same as what he had imagined!

After some hesitation, Cui Pu nodded directly: "Okay! You can do it!"

Seeing this, Lin Wanqing was stunned for a moment: "No! Old Cui, are you getting senile? I've already said he's not a doctor at all. Are you going to joke around with the patient's life?"

The older women were a little unhappy when they heard that Qin Mo wasn't a doctor.

But this time, Cui Pu actually patted his chest and guaranteed, "If he makes a mistake, I'll compensate him; I'll vouch for him!"

Who is Cui Pu?

Everyone within a ten-mile radius knows he's a legendary old doctor.

Especially the local residents, who have been receiving treatment from him for over a decade, have placed great trust in him.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to him instead of going to the hospital when they were seriously ill.

With him vouching for her, the woman nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes! If Master Cui can be trusted, then we can trust him too!"

Lin Wanqing was stunned.

She never expected that Cui Pu, who always looked at her with disdain and gave her the cold shoulder every time they met, would actually be willing to vouch for Qin Mo!

On what grounds?

The patient's condition was critical, and Qin Mo did not delay, immediately taking out needles and administering acupuncture.

During this time, Lin Wanqing tried several times to pounce on him, knock the needle out of his hand, and expose his true colors.

However, when she saw Qin Mo's skillful technique and the man's abdominal pain gradually subsided, she couldn't move.

His face was deathly pale, and he looked at Qin Mo as if he were a complete stranger.

It was as if she had never known Qin Mo.

"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
