From just a moment ago, the old man had been grinding and chattering nearby, pretending not to understand—something about the Moon being too heavy, something about congenital defects, and other ghostly nonsense."I practice medicine to save people, not for fame or wealth," the old man said with a smile, waving his hand.Cassandra's mother was now consumed with worry about her little daughter's condition and had no patience to argue with a smelly beggar."Please give my daughter a tranquilizer. We must hold on until the ambulance arrives. One hundred thousand is a small matter," Cassandra’s mother said, looking at the physician."Yes, please," Cassandra echoed with the same sincerity.The doctor had already prepared a tranquilizer and drawn it into the syringe. "Ha ha, a tranquilizer can relieve the patient’s pain and calm their mood and condition in ninety-nine percent of cases. My name is Gabriel Nata. This is my medical qualification certificate."Gabriel smiled, pulled out his cert

Veronica couldn’t stand it anymore. She stepped in front of Thomas to reason with them."Oh, you want to play the hero and save people without a medical qualification certificate? Little girl, who gave you the nerve? If my sister hadn’t been lucky enough to recover, I’d make you pay with your life!" Cassandra planted her hands on her hips and sneered at Veronica’s words.It had long been reported that ninety-nine percent of medical acupuncture, Qigong masters, and pulse-diagnosis practitioners were street swindlers. That knowledge had been lost ages ago. In a modern scientific society, everything relied on instruments and technology. What was this nonsense about her sister’s condition? Congenital bone issues and a yin-deficient constitution? Wasn’t that just ghostly gibberish? They had once taken their sister to the United States for a diagnosis. The top experts there, using the most advanced machines, couldn’t match what these two frauds claimed to discern with their naked eyes.From

In the Willian Family, Dorry’s authority still held deep sway over everyone, much like the revered position old Mirriam occupies currently in the Jaymes Family.At this point, nearly half an hour after Thomas’s arrest, the police had contacted the head of the Health and Family Planning Commission—Cassandra’s uncle—who hurried over to handle the situation.This included prosecution and fines, all justified and overseen by the Health and Family Planning Commission."Practicing medicine without a license, street fraud, using self-made, non-medical silver needles? They don’t meet commodity quality inspection standards. Where are those silver needles? Hand them over for confiscation. We’ll work with the police station to tally every detail," the head of the Health and Family Planning Commission declared with an air of arrogance, leaving no room for debate.Ghost Valley sat silently on the iron chair. Thomas spoke up beside him. "You don’t deserve to confiscate Mr. Ghost Valley’s Phoenix Ta

Another quarter of an hour later, Ghost Valley paused, carefully withdrew the silver needles, disinfected and wiped them with precision, then placed them back into the needle bag. Shortly after, Latifa’s complexion returned to normal, and a faint cough escaped her lips."Latifa’s awake? It’s a miracle!" Dorry’s face lit up with joy as he hurried forward to cradle his granddaughter."She still needs rest. Her body is far too weak. Once you take her home, focus on foods that replenish her Qi and blood. Use nourishing soups to boost her vitality, dispel dampness, and ward off cold," Ghost Valley advised."Rest assured, may I have the honor of knowing your name?" Dorry Willian asked with heartfelt gratitude, standing before Ghost Valley with clasped hands and earnest respect."A nobody. I share a fate with your granddaughter. I sowed the seed today, and it will bloom and bear fruit in time," Ghost Valley replied with a smile, showing no pride in his accomplishment. He had no desire for th

"And then?" the two women pressed, leaning in eagerly."Later, his partner showed up—a clean-cut guy, but his intentions weren’t pure. He even had the audacity to claim he could cure my sister’s illness. She was in terrible shape at the time—how dare they lay a hand on her? The guy was barely twenty and acting all high and mighty. Then it got interesting. My sister was in critical condition, so my mom offered a hundred-thousand reward on the street for a doctor to stabilize her. And what happened? These two just grabbed some needles and started poking her. No diagnosis, nothing—they scared me half to death. If anything had happened to my sister, jail wouldn’t have been the end of it," Cassandra recounted."How’d they end up in jail?" Jinny asked hurriedly."Does it take more than a word from me to use the Willian Family’s influence and lock them up? My uncle’s with the Lee Family Planning Commission. They were practicing medicine without a license and suspected of extortion—nearly kil
