The Luckiest Dumb Doctor

Chapter 145: Old Versailles !

“A misunderstanding?”

Kylie Lampe was taken aback, looking at Greg Jensen with a blank expression.

What Greg Jensen had implied just now was that the condition was incurable, how could she have misunderstood?

Kingsley Harrison also looked towards Greg Jensen, with a probing look in his eyes.

Greg Jensen smiled and said, “It’s not that it can’t be treated, but my medical skills are limited. I can only make the old man regain consciousness, but to expect him to move freely would be quite difficult.”

“What did you say?”

“You said you can make the old man regain consciousness?”

Upon hearing his words, Kingsley Harrison and his wife were both shocked.

The old man had been bedridden for three years, and the major hospitals had initially pronounced a ‘death sentence’ on him.

Though the bleeding had stopped, the blood vessels in his brain were extremely fragile, and there was always the risk of them rupturing again.

For this reason, the hospital dared not operate and could only let him lie in bed like this, hoping for a miracle to happen.

Because of this, Kingsley Harrison and his wife had quit their jobs to take care of the old man full-time.

However, the miracle they had been anticipating never came to be.

Just a month ago, the old man’s cerebral blood vessels burst again. Although he was rushed to the hospital in time, it was beyond help.

After staying in the hospital for almost a month, the doctors informed them to start preparing for his final affairs.

There was no other reason, as the bleeding in the old man’s head could no longer be stopped this time.

Kylie Lampe’s first reaction was to think that she had encountered a scammer. Having been to so many hospitals and finding no solution, this young man here was making big claims.

Not only could he stop the bleeding, but he could also make the old man regain consciousness.

What’s more absurd was that he seemed to think this result was somewhat unsatisfactory, suggesting that real skill would involve making the old man move freely like a normal person.

That boast seemed a bit too grand, even Kingsley Harrison was finding it hard to believe.

After a long moment, Kingsley Harrison regained his composure and said calmly, “Greg, let’s put it this way, if you can stop the bleeding in the cerebral blood vessels, I’ll give you one million.

If you can make the old man regain consciousness, whatever you ask me to do, I’ll do it, even if it means giving you my entire fortune.”

Having said that, he turned to his wife and asked, “Kylie, do you agree?”

Kingsley Harrison’s entire fortune was a joint property; he couldn’t decide alone and naturally had to ask Kylie Lampe.

Kylie Lampe was also very filial, and she didn’t believe Greg Jensen could make the old man regain consciousness.

So, without even thinking, she nodded immediately and said, “Agreed, that’s settled then. As long as you can make the old man wake up, both of us are willing to work like oxen and horses for you.”

Greg Jensen shook his head and smiled, “Uncle, auntie, you’re taking this too seriously.

How about this, if I can make the old man regain consciousness, you don’t have to work like oxen and horses, nor do 1 want your wealth, I just ask for one thing.”

Kingsley Harrison said, “You name it, as long as it’s within my power, I won’t hesitate.”

Greg Jensen smiled and said, “I want you to be the general manager of my new hotel.”

“Alt? Just that?”

“Yes, just that.”

Kingsley Harrison almost laughed, “Greg, if you can do it, it’s not just about being the manager, I’d even work for you for free.”

“Haha, then it’s a deal?”

“It’s a deal!”

Kingsley Harrison felt a spark of anger rise within him and said, “Start now then.”

Greg Jensen smiled and said, “No problem, but you need to get me a basin first.”

“Okay, just wait.”

Without a second word, Kylie Lampe ran to the kitchen and brought back a stainless steel basin.

Greg Jensen nodded, took out the silver needle he carried with him, and began to sterilize it.

The room instantly fell silent, and three pairs of eyes all turned towards Greg.

Kingsley and his wife had complex expressions on their faces—nervousness, expectation, disdain, contempt, and more.

Lois, on the other hand, was much more composed. The miraculous feats of Doctor Greg were too familiar to her.

Moreover, she knew that Greg never did anything he was unsure of.

Since he had spoken those words, he must certainly be able to deliver.

So, when she heard Greg’s words just now, Lois almost laughed out loud.

Too Versailles, but I like it!

At that moment, Greg, with a single-minded focus, hadn’t the time to care about the thoughts of the three people behind him. He pulled out silver needle after silver needle, inserting them into the old man’s head.

The old man’s condition was indeed very serious, even for Greg to treat with caution.

First, he used the Crossing the Catastrophe with Thirteen Needles to seal the bloodline on the top of the old man’s head, and then he stimulated the silver needles with True Qi to completely shut off the bleeding point.

Because he could not yet release True Qi externally, he could only use the silver needles as a medium to transfer True Qi into the old man’s body.

So, this method was very draining on his True Qi.

After a full set of treatments, Greg was sweating profusely, drenched in sweat from head to toe.

Seeing that the bleeding had been stopped, he took a long breath and then pulled out the longest silver needle, aiming at the site of the hematoma and piercing it forcefully.

The human skull is the hardest, not easily penetrated, but with the assistance of True Qi, the silver needle was as hard as diamond.

Given Greg’s swift technique, there was a ‘puli’ sound, and the needle went straight in.

“Bring the basin over here!”

“Oh, yes, right away.”

At this moment, Kingsley was so immersed in Greg’s technique that upon hearing the order, he promptly carried the stainless steel basin over.

Seeing that he was ready, Greg began slowly withdrawing the silver needle.

Once all the needles were removed, there was a ‘plop’ sound, and the dark red clotted blood spurted out like a fountain.

In the blink of an eye, half a basin was filled.

Witnessing this scene, Kylie was instantly stunned, and Kingsley was so shocked that his hands began to tremble.

“Hold it steady!” Greg barked.

Kingsley stammered, “Oh, right… right away.”

At that moment, Greg could no longer afford to think about benefit, concentrating intently on the bleeding spot.

Moments later, the flow of the hematoma slowed, and the color also grew fainter.

Seeing it turn fresh red, Greg was quick to react and immediately applied the homemade medicine directly on top.

The blood flow stopped abruptly!

Greg took another long breath out and smiled, “All set, just wait a bit for the bleeding to stop, and then we can remove the needles.”

“Is that it?”

Kylie was somewhat bewildered. Greg’s operation was dizzyingly adept; she even felt a sense of longing for more.

Greg nodded and said, “Yeah, actually there are only two difficulties with the old man’s condition. One is to stop the bleeding point, and the other is how to deal with the clotted blood in his head.

If these two are handled well, the old man’s condition will naturally recover. However, he has been in a coma for too long, so I can’t guarantee that he’ll have full mobility.”

“Uh…”

The couple was once again dumbfounded. They indeed had their doubts about Greg, but after seeing his series of operations, their previous thoughts began to shake.

After a little while, once Greg saw that the old man’s head had stopped bleeding, he released his hands and started to remove the needles.

When all the silver needles were taken out, he began massaging the old man.

With his continuous massage, the old man’s complexion visibly brightened at a speed detectable to the naked eye, and his breathing became more and more stable.

Seeing this spectacle, Kingsley couldn’t help but exchange a look with his wife, and a glimmer of hope simultaneously rose in both of their eyes..
