Chapter 364: Chapter 362 Production 7_1

From his understanding, she was clearly the daughter of Mrs. Lin Lan and Xia Jiehao, so how could she have learned an acupuncture technique that could only be mastered by the direct descendant of a Traditional Medicine Family?

Yes, this acupuncture technique came from a Hidden World Medical Family from Star Shine Country.

This family was hidden deep within the mountains shrouded in layers of clouds, dedicated to studying traditional medicine for generations, raising countless disciples.

However, what the disciples learned was merely the surface, although the surface was extremely formidable.

And only the direct descendants could learn the true medical skills.

It’s not that they were unwilling to teach their disciples, but rather those without the direct descendant bloodline simply didn’t have the innate talent to learn ancestral medical canons.

As a result, over time, only direct descendants had the privilege to learn from the ancestral medical canons.

The acupuncture technique that Xia Ningxing was using now was from that Traditional Medicine Family’s ancestral medical canons—the Ten Thousand Poisonous Needles.

It means to cure ten thousand types of poison, in fact, any poison that isn’t immediately fatal could be addressed with this technique, in combination with herbal medicine.

And the reason he knew about this technique was because he once sought help from the people of the Traditional Medicine Family to save his father, and an outsider apprentice he bribed secretly told him.

He was told that to save his father, only a doctor of the direct descendant bloodline performing this acupuncture technique would suffice.

Unfortunately, the direct descendants of this Traditional Medicine Family all had peculiar temperaments; they remained unmoved even if offered a mountain of gold and silver, spouting things like each person has their own fate, and that they couldn’t intervene to save others.

If it weren’t for his good upbringing, he would have cursed them out on the spot. As doctors, they actually said such incoherent things—listen to that, are they even human?

Poor his father, whose time was running out, would have long passed away if not for the various medications sustaining him.

But now there was hope!

There really was hope!

Dean Lu couldn’t help but wipe away the tears that were about to fall and decided he would beg Xia Ningxing with a shameless persistence to perform the needling technique to detoxify his father.

As for why Xia Ningxing wasn’t of the direct descendant bloodline of the Traditional Medicine Family yet could perform techniques that only the direct descendants could learn, that was no longer his concern.

Perhaps she was just exceptionally gifted!

After all, as long as she could save people, that was enough!

...

"Wow!"

In the operating room, along with a piercing cry, the little princess was born.

Yes, it was a girl.

One would know by using their brain that if the baby was a girl from the start, then the newborn would definitely be a girl; hoping that medication could change gender was utterly impossible, and in the end, it only harmed both the mother and the daughter!

"How could you recklessly take medicine during pregnancy? If not for Miss Xia being here today, your life might have been lost here," Dean Lu couldn’t help but lecture Tao Tao after the surgery ended.

This was simply reckless!

"It was my mother-in-law, she despised that I was carrying a girl, so she got medicine that could supposedly turn the girl into a boy," Tao Tao said, tears swirling in her eyes, biting her lip, not willing to take the blame: "I’ve always refused to take such medicine, but today she secretly put it into the chicken soup she made for me, and I only found out after I drank it."

Dean Lu sighed helplessly, shaking his head: "Favoring boys over girls is truly terrible! Absurd!"

He had heard stories like this before, and without exception, they ended either in double tragedies or with either the mother or child unable to be saved or left disabled.

"Xiaxia, thank you for your hard work; I’ll definitely work like an ox and a horse to repay you in the future," Tao Tao then turned to look at Xia Ningxing, her pale, weak hands tightly gripping hers, her expression earnest and serious.

Xia Ningxing gave her a cold look, "Living your life well is the best gift you could give me."

Tao Tao breathed deeply before asserting, "Xiaxia, after going through this ordeal, I’ve come to a realization. I’m going to divorce Yu Heng."

The moment he opted to save the baby over me, our relationship had already shattered.

Shattered completely.

"What about the child?" Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but stare at her with a touch of surprise, not expecting her to be serious. She had thought that Tao Tao’s declaration of kicking Yu Heng to the curb was nothing more than a heat-of-the-moment remark.

Looking at her wrinkled little baby affectionately, Tao Tao didn’t hesitate to respond, "I’ll take care of her myself. Anyway, the Yu Family wouldn’t care less about a girl. I wouldn’t want to leave my treasure to waste away with them."

"I support you!" Xia Ningxing comforted her, gently patting her shoulder.

After exchanging a few words, Dean Lu said, "You can leave the operating room now."

As soon as the operating room opened, Mrs. Yu rushed forward gleefully, "Miss Xia, you actually managed to heal my daughter-in-law and grandson to..."; death, pay up!

She cut off mid-sentence when she saw the mother and child safe and sound, her eyes nearly popping out.

"How are you still alive!" Mrs. Yu pointed at Tao Tao as if she had seen a ghost.

This wretched woman was supposed to have organ failure from poisoning, wasn’t she?

How come she looks perfectly fine now?

How was she going to extort money from Xia Ningxing now?

Seeing her in such a state, Tao Tao couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart again.

Even though she was already planning to divorce, being cursed like this by Mrs. Yu the moment she stepped out of the operating room still filled Tao Tao with an uncontrollable sadness.

Did she really wish for her to die that quickly?

"What’s wrong, not happy to see your daughter-in-law safe and sound? Or were you actually hoping something would happen to her so you could be pleased?" Xia Ningxing closed in on her, staring down intimidatingly, pressing her with questions.

Frozen by Xia Ningxing’s powerful presence, Mrs. Yu couldn’t spit out a word.

Yu Heng, recovering from the shock, forced a smile and approached Tao Tao, "Taozi, you’ve suffered. Don’t mind my mother, she was just overly worried about you and misspoke."

To hell with misspeaking!

Tao Tao truly wanted to kick her to death.

Sensing her resentful gaze, Yu Heng quickly diverted the topic, looking at the baby beside them, "Right, the child is a boy, isn’t he?"

As he spoke, he reached out to open the baby’s swaddle to check.

Seeing the baby poison-free, with all limbs intact, a sincere smile finally appeared on his face.

Well, well, although they didn’t get any money, having a healthy flesh and blood was good too, wasn’t it?

But when Yu Heng saw that the baby was a girl, his smile froze on his face, and he incredulously demanded, "Tao Tao! Why did you give birth to a girl!"

Before Tao Tao could reply, Mrs. Yu couldn’t help but shriek, "A girl?"

She immediately leaned in to see for herself, and upon confirming it was indeed a daughter, she pointed accusingly at Tao Tao and started to scold, "How useless are you, incapable of bearing a son, utterly worthless!"

All for nothing, her several hundred bucks spent on sex-changing pills!

"Shut your mouth!" Xia Ningxing’s anger flared as she slapped Mrs. Yu’s finger, her cold eyes piercing, "Whether it’s a boy or a girl, it’s determined by the male. If you’re that stressed about not having a grandson, you should be scolding your son. He’s the useless one, failing to produce a son to fulfill your wish to hold a grandchild!"
