Chapter 58 Treating Everyone Equally

"Hiss, huff, hiss..."

Just as Du Fei squatted down, the man lying on the ground suddenly began to breathe rapidly, as if something was stuck in his throat.

Du Fei checked and found that his internal organs were ruptured and bleeding, which had choked his trachea.

If he wasn't rescued in time, he would die within minutes.

Du Fei was about to use his golden needles to open his airway.

However, as he reached out to feel, he realized that he had rushed out in such a hurry that he forgot to bring his needle bag.

Du Fei picked up the man with both arms and carried him to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic for treatment.

Suddenly, a fair and soft palm appeared in front of Du Fei.

In the palm of the hand was his needle bag.

Du Fei turned around and saw Wang Zhongling, who had followed him out earlier.

"I thought you might need it, so I brought it."

Wang Zhongling was a little slower to react than Du Fei. Then, she glanced at the needle bag Du Fei had left on the table, picked it up, and ran out.

She didn't expect it to be so useful now.

"Thank you."

Du Fei took the needle bag and quickly began to treat the man.

In fact, even without the golden needles or bringing him back to the clinic, Du Fei could have treated the man. However, doing so would have exposed his Myriad Forms Art. With so many people around, Du Fei was afraid of causing a sensation, so he didn't do that.

After a few needles, the man's breathing immediately became smooth.

Then, while using the golden needles, Du Fei slowly infused his internal energy into the man's body, stopping the bleeding from his ruptured internal organs.

"Tha-thank you... for saving me."

After a while, the man actually slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw Du Fei treating him, he thanked him in a weak voice.

Du Fei patted him. "You are still very weak. I will help you to the clinic later and prescribe some medicine. You can drink it for a few days and then rest well for a period of time."

Although the man's injuries were severe just now, they had greatly improved after Du Fei's internal energy treatment.

"Young man, I see you are still young, so I advise you not to get into trouble."

At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked over and said slowly.

Seeing Du Fei look at her, the middle-aged woman added, "The person who stopped you just now is a notorious hoodlum on Jianghua Street. His boss, Huang San, is even more famous throughout the entire district. Although you beat that guy away just now, when he calls his accomplices, you will be in trouble."

"Sister, thank you for your concern. But I believe that good will always triumph over evil. It's fine."

Although with his skills, he was not afraid of any number of thugs, it was a kind intention, so Du Fei still thanked her.

The middle-aged woman looked at Du Fei, wanting to persuade him a few more words, but in the end, she sighed, shook her head, and turned to leave.

As for the onlookers who had been watching the excitement, they also dispersed when there was nothing more to see.

Du Fei helped the injured man and slowly walked back to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

After prescribing the medicine for him, Wang Zhongling directly took the prescription and prepared the medicine in a few simple steps, then quickly wrapped it up.

"Once a day, drink it for a week, but you'll need to rest well for the next one or two months."

Du Fei handed the medicine, wrapped by Wang Zhongling, to the man.

The man was very grateful. Then, he took out a handful of money from his pocket. There were ten-yuan and five-yuan notes, as well as various coins, but not a single large bill.

"Uh, Doctor Du, I live at the end of the street. I'll bring the medical fees to you later."

The man's face was a little embarrassed as he put the handful of money back into his pocket.

Du Fei nodded and said it was not urgent.

The man left with many thanks.

"Du Fei, this person owes tens of thousands in usurious loans. You can save him today, but you can't save him tomorrow. Moreover, he can't even afford a little medical fee."

After the man left, Wang Zhongling said.

Du Fei was tidying up his things. He heard Wang Zhongling and looked at her. "I can't control what happens to him tomorrow, and I don't have that much ability. But I only know that a doctor's heart is like a parent's. No matter who my patient is, as long as I can, I will treat him well."

After speaking, Du Fei added, "It's getting late, we should both go home."

Wang Zhongling looked at Du Fei and realized that she seemed to have never truly understood who Du Fei was, because he always made her see him in a new light.

A few minutes later, after they closed the shop, Du Fei offered to take Wang Zhongling home.

Wang Zhongling pointed to a parking space by the roadside near the clinic and said that she had driven herself and didn't need to be sent.

Then she took out her car key and pressed it, and a convertible sports car honked twice.

Wang Zhongling opened the car door, waved goodbye to Du Fei, and drove away.

As expected, she was a young lady whose parents were already financially free. He was still driving a borrowed car, while she was already driving a convertible sports car.

It really is true that comparing oneself to others can kill you.

...

"Sister E, your complexion doesn't look too good. Do you want to rest for a while?"

Wu Chunlian looked at Li Su'e beside her, her face looking a little pale, and asked with concern.

Li Su'e touched her forehead, which was sweating. "It's nothing, I'm fine. Thank you, Chunmei. If it weren't for your help today, I couldn't have managed all by myself. Thank you so much today."

As there were no customers buying fish at the moment, the two sat on the long bench behind the cutting board to rest.

"Hey, Sister E, you really don't need to say that. I should be thanking you. If you hadn't given me a chance to help, I would have been bored to death staying home alone all day."

Although Wu Chunmei had been busy all morning, she was never someone who could sit still.

A few days ago, Du Yunyun went to school, and Du Fei was not at home. After Wu Chunmei finished tidying up everything, she sat at home alone and felt bored.

Although Du Fei had told her that she could watch TV and play on her phone when she had free time, Wu Chunmei didn't like it at all, so she took a walk around the neighborhood while buying groceries.

Unexpectedly, she ran into her fellow townswoman, Sister E, and helping her for half a morning today made Wu Chunmei feel much better.

"Oh, Chunmei, it's getting late. Your daughter should be home from school soon. Hurry back and make dinner. It's important for children to eat."

As they were chatting, Li Su'e glanced at the clock beside them and quickly reminded Wu Chunmei.

Wu Chunmei saw that it was getting late and quickly took off her waterproof apron.

"Chunmei, the hairtail today is quite good. Take two back to cook for your daughter."

Li Su'e quickly packed two hairtail fish while Wu Chunmei was packing her things.

Wu Chunmei waved her hand. "How can I do that? These two hairtail fish are worth tens of yuan. Yesterday I already took a large yellow croaker from Sister E. I absolutely cannot take your fish again today."

After saying that, she tried to push away the bag of fish that Li Su'e was packing.

"Chunmei, if you are so polite to me, then I won't dare to ask you for help again in the future."

Seeing Li Su'e's stern face, Wu Chunmei had to nod, but she also said that this was the last time and that she would never accept it again, no matter what.

Li Su'e smiled and said that she would.

Just as Wu Chunmei turned to leave, Li Su'e's face suddenly turned pale, and she clutched her lower back in pain.

Then, she used all her strength to grip the cutting board, so she did not fall to the ground.

However, Wu Chunmei had already walked far away and did not see this scene.
