Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Who the Hell is the Mistress?

    Dr. Yan nodded with satisfaction, “How should an asthma attack be treated?”

    This was no longer about locating acupuncture points but a direct individual consultation.

    Qiao Xi glanced at him and seriously said, “Take Fengchi and Dingchuan as the main points. If it’s cold-induced asthma, add Baihui, Qi Sea, and Guanyuan. If it’s heat-induced asthma, combine it with Quchi, Dazhui, and Fenglong.”@@@@

    As she spoke, she was inserting needles, and the application of tonification and sedation techniques was very precise.

    Dr. Yan even drew inspiration from it, her needle technique somewhat resembled the lost Cheng Acupuncture Technique. But rumors outside suggested that Zhuo Feng was a disciple of Cheng Han, who, aside from Huo Er Shao, never took patients.

    Whether it was out of arrogance or fear of being exposed, no one knew.

    ...

    “And how should infertility be treated?”

    “Infertility can be roughly divided into four types. If it’s due to kidney deficiency and cold womb, use the Fuliu and Mingmen points. If it’s liver qi stagnation...”

    She elaborated enthusiastically, with a brilliance on her pretty face as if it was shrouded in a soft glow, causing Ye Manman’s face to turn pale and her heart to panic.

    “I’ve never heard of this method of treatment before. I wonder what the clinical results are like...” Dr. Yan was a medical enthusiast, very engrossed in listening.

    “I haven’t treated it before,” Qiao Xi admitted sheepishly.

    “I’ve heard you don’t have a supervising doctor. How about coming to help me in the future?” Her theory was solid, she was almost ready for outpatient diagnosis.

    “Okay!”

    Qiao Xi curved her eyes and smiled in response.

    The others had varying expressions. Dr. Yan seldom took interns, and Qiao Xi had hit the jackpot. Thinking about the bet between Ye Manman and Qiao Xi, they looked at Ye Manman with pity.

    The internship assessment scores were announced on the spot.

    Qiao Xi was rightfully first.

    While Ye Manman later performed abnormally and failed to pass.

    “The assessment is over, and the subsequent arrangements will be decided by Director Wu,” Dr. Yan and Dr. Li quickly left.

    The interns whispered amongst themselves, their gaze at Qiao Xi no longer one of disdain and contempt but one of admiration and envy.

    “Qiao Xi, you really hide your skills well, tricking me into betting!”

    Ye Manman said through gritted teeth, “Now you must be pleased with yourself!”

    “Who has been targeting whom all along?” Qiao Xi asked calmly, “A bet is a bet.”

    “Qiao Xi, we were college roommates. Are you really that heartless?” If she lost this job, she would have no source of income. Chen Xu had gone bankrupt; there would be nothing left to pay back her internet loans with.

    “If I were the one losing today, you’d definitely have gloated and told me to get lost!” Qiao Xi said expressionlessly.

    And Qiao Xi was called into the director’s office.

    Director Wu looked at her inquisitively, “Qiao Xi, you’ve got quite the nerve. This time it’s not me who will deal with you, but the Dean and the hospital’s decision.”

    “Take a look.”

    Qiao Xi took the phone, browsed through the forum post, and her expression grew grave.

    “I didn’t do these things.” The intimate photos were all about angles, a matter of perspective. How could she have been so forward with Mr. Huo while sober...

    “We’ve had techs verify it, the photos are real. The school requires you to come back and explain everything; your internship is to be suspended.”

    Director Wu said impatiently, “Go on, get out.”

    “Director Wu, I...”

    “Out! You’ve damaged our hospital’s reputation.”

    His words were too nasty.

    Qiao Xi clenched her fists tightly and left the office. She took out her phone and scrolled multiple times, almost certain that Ye Manman was the one who posted it.

    It was a narrow road for enemies; Ye Manman came around the corner carrying a box of her belongings, deliberately bumping into Qiao Xi.

    “Qiao Xi, if I can’t have a good ending, neither will you.” She smiled maliciously, “And there’s another surprise for you! See that auntie over there?”

    She pointed to the middle-aged woman at the end of the corridor, who had a mean and sharp look on her face.

    Having said that.

    She threw the box down and started shouting loudly in the bustling hospital corridor.

    “Everyone, come and look! This is Doctor Qiao Xi, the one who hooked up with a married man! You better keep an eye on your husbands when you come for treatment, or this young and beautiful lady will seduce them right away, and you won’t even find a place to cry!”

    “Right! She’s indecent!”

    Wu Yachun, accompanied by several interns, caused a stir and enjoyed the commotion.

    “Our department can’t keep her! The Haicheng University forum is abuzz! She’s nothing but a homewrecker!”

    “Expel her! Expel her!”

    They were leading the charge, and the passersby who were clueless also joined in the commotion. The middle-aged woman shoved Qiao Xi forcefully, “It’s vixens like you who cause families to break apart and leave them in ruins! Homewrecker, you ought to die! Die!”

    She fiercely grabbed Qiao Xi’s hair, about to slap her.

    Qiao Xi, using a sudden burst of force, pinched the woman’s wrist, taking the upper hand. Just as she was about to push away the frenzied woman, she heard a familiar deep male voice.

    “Who the fuck is the mistress?”

    Not far away, a man with a handsome countenance sat in a wheelchair, his voice cold as frost.

    Qiao Xi slowly turned her head, stunned to look at the man.

    This was the first time she had heard Huo Xingzhou swear since she’d known him.
