150: Chapter 150: Sleeping Pills Are Useless 150: Chapter 150: Sleeping Pills Are Useless Liu Ying was still at work.

When she received her son’s call, she hurriedly drove back home.

Upon returning home, she saw her son’s face and eyes, which looked quite different from usual.

“Wei, how are you feeling?”

“Mom, I really want to sleep, but I just can’t.”

Now, the excitement had disappeared, but the pain of being unable to sleep became more and more pronounced.

When he felt his nerves becoming a bit chaotic, Zhang Wei felt increasingly uncomfortable.

Liu Ying hurriedly helped Zhang Wei into the car, then drove to a major hospital in Jinling.

Liu Ying first registered Zhang Wei for an internal medicine appointment.

While waiting in line, they entered an internal medicine office for an examination.

The attending physician, wearing a mask, looked at Zhang Wei and asked, “What discomfort are you experiencing?”

“Since yesterday, I’ve been very excited.

I didn’t sleep at all last night, and this morning, I suddenly felt very sleepy, but couldn’t fall asleep.”

Zhang Wei briefly explained his condition.

In fact, he had already begun to feel unable to think normally.

Simple sentences were organized well, but anything more complicated might not be manageable.

The internal medicine doctor examined Zhang Wei’s eyes, throat, and even checked his pulse, tongue, and pulse rate.

In the end, the attending physician just deduced that Zhang Wei might be overly excited and prescribed some calming medicine for him to drink.

“I’ll prescribe some calming medicine for you.

Drink it and see how it works.

If it doesn’t work, I’ll then prescribe some sleeping pills.”

The attending physician prescribed some simple calming medicines for Zhang Wei, but no sleeping pills for the time being.

Liu Ying thanked the doctor, took the prescription and went to the pharmacy with Zhang Wei to buy the medicine, and then went home to give it to him.

These calming medicines were simple traditional Chinese medicines as well as Western medicines.

After Zhang Wei took the prescribed traditional Chinese medicine, he was advised to rest.

Zhang Wei took the medicine, went back to his room, and lay down on the big bed to rest.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Wei felt more and more dizzy, nauseous and vomited, and his eyes were sore, but he still couldn’t sleep.

Not knowing how long he lay there with his eyes closed, he got up again when Liu Ying was preparing dinner in the kitchen and saw Zhang Wei walking over with bloodshot eyes.

“Wei, still can’t sleep?”

Liu Ying asked curiously.

“Mom, I really can’t sleep.”

He had thought that taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor would help him sleep, but now he felt even more miserable.

“Then I’ll take you to the hospital again.”

Seeing Zhang Wei’s haggard and flushed face, Liu Ying began to worry.

At first, she thought it was just a common case of insomnia, but now it seemed much more serious.

Zhang Wei hadn’t slept for two days and a night, and the feeling of his brain urging him to rest but being unable to sleep was truly unbearable.

Zhang Wei followed Liu Ying back to the hospital, but the previous attending physician had already left, and another doctor examined Zhang Wei.

Based on Zhang Wei’s symptoms, this doctor diagnosed him with comprehensive insomnia.

Since the usual medicines had no effect, he prescribed sleeping pills.

Liu Ying had already arranged for a hospital room for Zhang Wei and, after obtaining the sleeping pills, instructed the nurse to prepare warm water for him.

Liu Ying took out two sleeping pills and mixed them with warm water for Zhang Wei to take.

Zhang Wei had never taken sleeping pills before, so he took them with warm water and then lay down on the bed with his eyes closed.

He thought the sleeping pills would work quickly, but even after ten minutes, there was no effect.

Half an hour passed, but there was still no effect.

Realizing he still couldn’t sleep, he felt increasingly miserable and got out of bed.

If this went on, Zhang Wei felt like he was going to go crazy.

Liu Ying, who was sitting nearby, saw Zhang Wei get up and asked, “Still not working?”

“Mom, it’s not working at all.”

Zhang Wei replied.

It was already late, well past dinner time, and Liu Ying had no time to go back and cook.

She called Zhang Dongliang to inform him about Zhang Wei’s condition.

When Zhang Dongliang hurriedly arrived, he noticed that his son’s face and expression were very different.

Experiencing continuous lack of sleep was normal, especially since Zhang Wei had recently been expelled from school, which might have stimulated and affected his insomnia.

“Wei, don’t think about anything.

Just close your eyes and rest quietly.”

Zhang Wei listened to his father’s words, went back to bed, and lay down.

It was indeed very quiet in the hospital room, but even with his eyes closed, he still couldn’t sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Wei opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at Zhang Dongliang and Liu Ying, saying, “Mom, Dad, I’m about to go crazy.

Ask if the hospital has any medication that can directly make me sleep.”

Besides sleeping pills, there were other medicines that could induce sleep directly.

When Zhang Dongliang went to find a doctor, the doctor, considering Zhang Wei’s current condition, didn’t dare prescribe medication casually, as the sleeping pills had no effect, indicating that Zhang Wei’s condition was severe.

The doctor advised Zhang Wei to undergo a full-body examination.

Zhang Wei and his parents went to various departments for tests.

Fortunately, the doctors hadn’t yet gone off duty, or they would have had to go to another hospital for the examination.

After the check-ups, only some results were available immediately, while most would take a day or two.

Back in their hospital room, Liu Ying told Zhang Wei to lie down and sleep, advising him to close his eyes and rest a bit, whether or not he could fall asleep.

Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu returned to her home for dinner, then went back to the classroom for self-study.

They only saw Zhang Wei’s four followers but didn’t see Zhang Wei.

Ye Qiu knew that Zhang Wei’s insomnia symptoms had started, and this was just the beginning.

It would slowly torment Zhang Wei until he felt life was worse than death.

Su Luoluo found that she felt much better after Ye Qiu’s treatment in the afternoon.

Her dizziness, nausea, and the urge to vomit had completely disappeared.

However, the pain in her neck and shoulders hadn’t gone away.

She wondered if Ye Qiu could cure her entirely.

But Ye Qiu, sitting there typing, didn’t look at her.

As self-study time approached, Ye Qiu packed up his laptop, and he and Liu Lingxiu went downstairs.

Ye Qiu rode his bike to take Liu Lingxiu home and then rode his e-bike back to his old neighborhood.
