Chapter 3: The Child's Mother

"His name is Qin Haodong. He is just an intern here," said Ma Guoqiang in embarrassment. "What? An intern dares to operate on our president? Open the door now! Tell him to stop!" An Biru shouted. "This kind of door is locked from the inside. I am going to find the director now!" Ma Guoqiang ran out of the Emergency Department. Director Wen Changjiang was on duty tonight, so Ma Guoqiang rushed to report it to him in order to completely remove any responsibility. "You... If anything happens to our president, I will tear down your hospital... " Seeing Ma Guoqiang's fading figure, An Biru stamped with rage but was unable to do anything else. "Mommy... mommy... " Tang tang cried. An Biru held her close, waiting for the emergency room to be opened. In the emergency room, Qin Haodong began work on Lin Momo. He took out his needle bag and gently shook some needles into his hands. With a deep breath, Qin Haodong ran his Green Wood Genuine Qi inside and transfused it into the silver needles in his hands. Once done, he began pricking Lin Momo with the infused silver needles. He performed it as naturally and smoothly as floating clouds and flowing water. In a single moment, a dozen silver needles had been stabbed into the acupuncture points on her chest. Lin Momo spat out blood uncontrollably, but as the needles were applied, her breathing slowed, and the blood stopped. She was stable, but his hands did not stop. His Green Wood Genuine Qi turned into an invisible hand, carefully drawing out the rib that had inserted into the lung, and repairing the injured tissue with his retrieving needle. After joining up the ribs, he continued to set her broken legs and poured his Green Wood Genuine Qi into Lin Momo's body to accelerate the healing of her wound. The monitoring instruments stopped blaring as every index slowly returned to normal. Qin Haodong heaved a long sigh of relief. After the initial operation had been accomplished, Qin Haodong raised his hands to withdraw all the silver needles in Lin Momo and took another silver needle to prick into the dantian acupoint on her belly. The cure for Lin Momo wasn’t done yet, as her injured tissues had not been repaired thoroughly. The silver needle he used this time contained the essence of Green Wood Genuine Qi, which would continuously help to restore the injury. After everything was done, Qin Haodong left the emergency room. An Biru was waiting anxiously at the door of the emergency office when the door opened and the intern stepped out. Zhang Desheng and the other bodyguards immediately surrounded him. An Biru called out, "What did you do with the president?" "She's fine now." When speaking, Qin Haodong fixed his eyes closely on Tang tang. "Fine?" An Biru, unconvinced, held Tang tang in her arms and hastened into the emergency room. Qin Haodong came in behind them. Aside from the blood stains, Lin Momo appeared calm and restful. If it had not been for the medical instruments next to her displaying normal stats, An Biru would have thought that Qin Haodong had killed Lin Momo. An Biru could not believe her own eyes. She saw what Lin Momo looked like going into the operating room – she’d barely been clinging to life. How could she have so thoroughly recovered so quickly? The door of the emergency room was only closed for ten minutes. No matter how sophisticated Qin Haodong's medical skill was, no one was capable of healing such severe injuries in such a short time. "Have you really healed the president?" An Biru asked in a daze. "Yes, Miss Lin is all right now," replied Qin Haodong. "Great! Great!" The child clapped with great delight. "Tang tang is so happy! Tang tang can have mommy back! Brother, hug me!" A moment ago, Tang tang could not stop crying, but now she reached out her puppy-fat hands to Qin Haodong. An Biru was amazed; she knew that Tang tang was reluctant to have strangers touch her, so it was confusing that Tang tang seemed so well-disposed toward this young man. She glanced at several bodyguards standing at the door, reassured that nothing would go wrong with them here. Then, she gave Tang tang to Qin Haodong. Qin Haodong let out a cry inwardly and cuddled Tang tang tightly in his arms. He couldn’t describe the emotions that welled up in his heart. For five hundred years, he had been playing through life as the all-powerful Emperor Green Wood, but now he was just a father who loved his daughter ardently. "Elder brother, you look so handsome!" Tang tang stretched out her little hands and held Qin Haodong's cheeks as she said that. "I am not your elder brother. I am your uncle," Qin Haodong corrected Tang tang. "But my mommy said a person with a beard is an uncle, and without a beard is a brother. You don't have a beard. Shouldn't I call you brother?" "Er... " Qin Haodong felt awkward at her words. He thought, "This body is good but looks too fair and fresh without facial hair." "You should call me uncle." "That's okay. Handsome uncle!" "What's your name?" asked Qin Haodong. "Tang tang!" The words of his daughter's name touched Qin Haodong's heart with warmth. With Lin family's power, it was not difficult to check his identity. Most valuably, Lin Momo had his daughter follow his family name. "Handsome Uncle, have you saved my mommy?" the little child wound her arms around Qin Haodong's neck and asked. "Yes! Because she is Tang tang's mother, I must save her." Qin Haodong answered familiarly. "Well, why did that person try to stop you from saving mommy?" "Because he is a fool. He could not save your mommy and thought I could not, as well." "Fool, a big fool!" Tang tang giggled. "Handsome uncle, why can you save my mommy? Are you a miracle doctor?" "Yes, I am a miracle doctor." Qin Haodong nodded. In the Divine World, he was a famed medical saint, and no one but he could deserve the title of miracle doctor. "You're so awesome, uncle. Can I call you Doctor Magic?" "Of course!" "Doctor Magic, when can mommy talk to me? When can she take me to kindergarten?" "Tomorrow. Tomorrow, your mommy can talk with you and send you to kindergarten." "That's great! Thank you, Doctor Magic!" Tang tang kissed Qin Haodong's cheek. Qin Haodong's face stretched into a broad grin. He had never been so excited before, even when kissing an empress. The kiss of his daughter was more precious than anything else. Qin Haodong calmed himself and said, "Let's go out so Mommy can have a good rest. Okay?" "Okay, let's go out and play. Mommy can have a good sleep." Qin Haodong held Tang tang in his arms and walked out of the emergency room. They started playing games at the door. In the director's office, Ma Guoqiang stood in front of the director, Wen Changjiang, breathless. "Director, something... something terrible happened!" Wen Changjiang frowned and asked, "What happened?" "One of the interns has caused a disaster... " Ma Guoqiang briefed what had happened and emphasized how Qin Haodong imposed an operation on Lin Momo regardless of his protests. "What? An intern is performing an operation on the daughter of the Lin family?!" Wen Changjiang shot to his feet. Although he was the director of the hospital, he dared not to provoke the Lin family. If Lin Momo died in Jiangnan Hospital because of the intern, Wen Changjiang would be in deep trouble. "Yes, the intern is named Qin Haodong. He admired my medical skill deeply, and wanted to learn from me, but I did not agree. Who knows what possessed him to operate on Miss Lin?" "Why didn't you stop him?" Wen Changjiang thundered. "Director, I tried! The man is a barbarian – he beat me and locked me out of the operating room!" Ma Guoqiang pointed the palm print on his face and said, "Director, I have been a doctor for over ten years and never seen an unruly intern. He will ruin our hospital! We should deal with him severely." "Shut up! We need to get down there right now!" Wen Changjiang rushed out of the office. Ma Guoqiang followed with a small smirk. Looking at Wen Changjiang's furious expression, Ma Guoqiang knew that he had successfully shifted responsibility to Qin Haodong. When the two men arrived at the entrance of the emergency hall, they ran into Lin Zhiyuan. Wen Changjiang immediately went to greet him. "Hello, Mr. Lin." Lin Zhiyuan replied with a nod of his head. How could he be bothered to socialize when his daughter was in critical condition? As Lin Zhiyuan walked inside, a black car sped in, stopping in front of the hall. "My teacher is here!" Ma Guoqiang ran to the car door and opened it complaisantly. A middle-aged man about 50 years old got out. He was none other than Zhang Tianhe, a well-renowned medical master in Jiangnan City. "Master Zhang, I am sorry to trouble you to attend to this matter," Lin Zhiyuan came up and said. He contacted Zhang Tianhe the moment he heard his daughter was in a car accident. Zhang Tianhe said, "Mr. Lin, don't worry. As long as I am here, your daughter will be fine." Lin Zhiyuan nodded and said, "I know the rule. No. 6 villa in Ruhua district, Jiangnan has been prepared." Being the top medical expert in Jiangnan City, Zhang Tianhe had a rule for giving medical treatment. He accepted no money, only luxurious villas. Over the years, he had acquired a number of houses in all the high-grade residential districts in Jiangnan City. Ruhua district was the top rich residential area being developed by Lin's Group, where each villa was worth tens of millions of yuan. Zhang Tianhe nodded in satisfaction. He looked back at Ma Guoqiang and asked, "How is Miss Lin now?"
