CHAPTER 367: CHAPTER 367: MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW

Tang Chuxia walked quickly and didn’t hear the conversation at all; otherwise, she would definitely have come back to clarify things for the child.

Why couldn’t she be just a person?

Why was her identity always arranged as either a man or a little demon?

Unfortunately, she didn’t hear the child’s conversation with his father.

But Gu Beihuai did hear it, and although initially worried about Gu Nanzhi, his concern eased when he heard the child’s words, rubbing the little guy’s head, "The sister just now was not the White Bone Demon, she’s the Third Princess!"

The child uttered, "Ah," then turned and asked his father, "Who is the Third Princess?"

The child’s father rubbed his chin, "She really does resemble her, the Third Princess is from the Dragon Clan, immensely strong for sure, and crucially, she’s beautiful!"

The child did not understand and kept pestering his father to tell him the story of the Third Princess.

Gu Beihuai didn’t stay to listen to the story of the Third Princess but instead chased after Tang Chuxia.

Along the way, many people saw Tang Chuxia hurriedly carrying Gu Nanzhi, and they couldn’t help but turn their heads.

Just then, a nurse glanced her way and shouted; Tang Chuxia didn’t hear her, mainly because there were too many people around. Seeing that Tang Chuxia didn’t hear her, the nurse hurried towards the Obstetrics and Gynecology department.

Despite the disaster, those who needed to give birth would still give birth!

Mrs. Gu was incredibly busy, and due to the flood, the pregnant women who had planned to give birth at home were also afraid of accidents and came to the hospital.

If the hospital hadn’t been short of staff, there would be no need for Gu Nanzhi to help soothe the patients.

Because there really were no people left.

The nurse caught Mrs. Gu just as she was coming out of the delivery room, "Director, I saw your Zhizhi fainting, your son and daughter-in-law are here!"

Mrs. Gu didn’t even stop to drink water but immediately asked what happened to Gu Nanzhi and where he was!

The nurse was also anxious but fortunately had seen which direction Tang Chuxia had left in, "They should have gone to the resting room!"

Mrs. Gu didn’t have time to change her clothes and rushed toward the resting area.

Upon arrival, she pushed open the door and anxiously scanned the room, but saw no one there; everyone was too busy to come and rest.

She caught another nurse and inquired, but they had not seen Gu Beihuai and the others.

Mrs. Gu anxiously paced in circles, fearing something bad might have happened to Gu Nanzhi.

Fortunately, after a while, Gu Nanzhi was brought in by Tang Chuxia.

As soon as Tang Chuxia saw Mrs. Gu, she called out, "Aunt Hong," and gestured to her to check on Gu Nanzhi to see if anything was wrong.

Although Tang Chuxia was sure Gu Nanzhi had just passed out due to exhaustion and severe emotional fluctuations and that it wasn’t a serious issue,

As a mother, Mrs. Gu definitely wanted to check for herself.

Mrs. Gu was relieved to find that Gu Nanzhi was not seriously harmed and then remembered to ask Tang Chuxia and Gu Beihuai how they had gotten there.

Tang Chuxia placed Gu Nanzhi on the bed and then spoke about the events of the previous night.

Mrs. Gu exclaimed, "Fortunately, you weren’t at home last night, the flood rose too fast. We left early, and many people are still trapped at home, probably still being rescued!"

Tang Chuxia nodded in agreement, knowing that many people had indeed been trapped.

Seeing the dark circles under Mrs. Gu’s eyes, Gu Beihuai knew she must have stayed up late again.

"Mom, you should sleep for a while. We’ll keep watch at the door. If anything comes up, we’ll call you!"

Gu Beihuai ushered Mrs. Gu to the bed, urging her to close her eyes and rest for a bit.

Mrs. Gu was indeed very tired and turned to Tang Chuxia, saying, "Don’t you go running around the emergency area!"

Tang Chuxia confirmed she wouldn’t wander off, and Mrs. Gu then fell asleep.

She really started snoring as soon as she closed her eyes.

She was exhausted.

Tang Chuxia felt some pity for the two of them and pulled Beihuai outside.

Once outside, she whispered to Beihuai, "Should we go check on Uncle Gu later?"

Beihuai responded with a hum, "I’m worried about my dad!"

His dad’s workplace was located in a low-lying area, which might get flooded.

It wasn’t good for them to just wait in the hospital without doing anything. Since Tang Chuxia was semi a doctor and carried an acupuncture kit, she could handle minor ailments.

At that time, the hospital didn’t have serious doctor-patient conflicts yet. For getting treatment in the hospital, as long as there was someone to administer it, they were very cooperative.

Tang Chuxia was outside the office door, treating the utterly exhausted nurses. The nurses were very impressed with Tang Chuxia’s skills, mainly because she would massage them briefly, and instantly their tense muscles would relax.

You must understand that their continuous shifts were already deadly, and many nurses had discomforts.

Tang Chuxia sat on a chair near the door; she only needed to be told where the discomfort was, and she could directly help adjust it, which was more effective than surgery or medication.

Initially, it was only the nurses who came to her for help, but then some doctors saw and came over too, curious about Tang Chuxia’s massage and bone-setting skills, which excited the nurses more than ever.

After trying it, the doctors were instantly amazed.

From one person to two, and two to three, soon all the utterly exhausted doctors in the hospital came to queue up, finding time to replenish their energy.

Beihuai was originally just watching from the side, but because there were too many people, he had to help keep track of the order.

This was an extraordinarily novel experience.

At first, Tang Chuxia was somewhat afraid that people would doubt her abilities, but when she pressed on people’s necks, identified the points of discomfort, and then swiftly adjusted them with several "clicks," completing each in one or two minutes with impressive speed and immediate effects.

She became extremely popular.

Even people who had been hiding in the hospital came over to ask if she could treat them.

Any person other than children, who recover quickly, had some sub-health issues due to fatigue. Despite Tang Chuxia being impressive, she was only one person.

After a busy hour, she too was terribly tired.

Beihuai saw Tang Chuxia was gritting her teeth to persevere and felt extremely distressed for her.

Tang Chuxia’s health had not fully recovered, and she had always relied on being witty and diverting attention from her issues.

This woman often neglected taking care of herself, only thinking of helping others.

After Tang Chuxia helped another person with their lumbar spine problem, Beihuai shouted to the people behind, "That’s it for now, my wife is tired!"

The people queuing didn’t take kindly to this and started to shout, "What do you mean? We’ve been in line for so long, why stop now?"

Some even echoed, "Right, how can a doctor not work?"

Beihuai’s face darkened.

Tang Chuxia originally merely intended to help the doctors and nurses relax a bit before getting busy; she wasn’t specifically there to treat patients.

Tang Chuxia’s lips turned white, and she was barely holding up, sitting on a chair and looking at Beihuai in anger:

"My wife is not a doctor, she’s just kindly helping to treat you! How come not charging to help treat becomes an issue?"

Beihuai’s voice was very penetrating, and his gaze was unlike his usual playful self. When he swept his eyes over everyone, they all fell silent.

"Does my wife owe you anything?"
