Chapter 4
Return of the Lost Heiress
âYes, young lady, itâs better to call 911 first. This child seems lost. Iâve been shouting for a while, but noone came,â an old man said. He feared that the responsibility would fall on this girl if something wentwrong.
Wynter quickly untied the little boyâs suit and found a shady place nearby. âLadies and gentlemen, restassured, I have a medical license.â
She pulled her backpack as she spoke to reveal a foldable small medical box. When the box opened,rows of silver needles and various surgical knives, long and short, were neatly arranged.
Wynter once again checked the boyâs pulse.
âStop!â The man in the white coat couldnât stand it anymore. He shouted loudly, âHow can you randomlygive the patient injections?â
Ignoring him, Wynter lowered her eyes. She counted the boyâs pulse and heart rate.
The man in the white coat sneered, âI am Luke Johnson, a student from Sacred Heart MedicalUniversity, and under Madam Gibsonâs guidance. Iâm not an ordinary commoner. You say you have amedical license? How old are you?â
Wynter remained indifferent. She focused on the little boy, disinfecting the needles.
âIâm talking to you!â It was Lukeâs first time being ignored. âEven the old man knows to call 911. Donâtyou understand?â
Wynter knelt on one knee, her presence both sharp and cold. âJust standing by while waiting for 911?Delaying emergency treatment? Is that how your teacher taught you?â
âWho said just to stand by and wait for 911?â Luke was irritated, disdainfully retorting, â Youâre the onedelaying emergency treatment now. Taking out needles to show off. You better put away your pseudoâscience of traditional medicine. Let me perform CPR for the patient.â
Upon hearing this, Wynter glanced at him, her gaze extremely cold.
Who would have thought such a pretty girl could be so unyielding?
âHe has heatstroke. What are you doing with CPR?â Wynter pressed the boyâs fingers. There was achill in her voice when she said, âIncompetent doctor.â
Luke exploded. âWho are you calling an incompetent doctor? Do you know who my mentor is?â@@novelbin@@
He had just returned from abroad with Madam Gibson and awards. This little girl dared to question hismedical skills!
âIâm not interested in knowing.â Wynter disinfected the needles, continuing her actions seamlessly.âStep aside.â
Lukeâs eyes were red with anger. âI wonât compare skills with a traditional medicine swindler like you.His l*ps are purple. Itâs obviously a heart problemâ¦â
âMyocardial hypoxia and ischemia can stimulate respiratory function, leading to purple l*ps. Wynter methis gaze, her eyes icy. âHowever, heatstroke can also cause purple l*ps. The difference lies in hisstable and moderate pulse. Moreover, his l*p lines are dry, clearly indicating prolonged exposure tohigh temperatures. You donât even observe these medical signs, and you call yourself a student ofSacred Heart Medical University?â
âYes, we should first observe medical signs. Iâve also learned that before,â someone chimed in.
Others sneered. âThis student from Sacred Heart Medical University doesnât seem that great.
âI still think the girl is reliable. I can tell sheâs professional just by observing her pulse reading.â
Luke couldnât bear the humiliation. âFine, even if he has heatstroke, can your few needles cure him?Then, whatâs the use of us medical students?â
âYou can only speak for yourself, not for all medical students.â Wynterâs eyes were cold. âIâll say itagain: step aside.â
She despised two types of people the most in her life: those who belittled the legacy of traditionalmedicine and those incompetent doctors who delayed her efforts to save lives.
âFine, Iâll step aside. I want to see how capable this little girl is.â Luke sneered, folding his arms. âIf yourneedles can cure him, Iâll kneel down and call you a genius!â
âIâll wait for that âgeniusâ from you,â Wynter said, facing the light. She then probed with precision andswiftly lifted her hand!
