The Female Taoist Priestess’s Childhood Sweetheart Is a Male CEO

Chapter 4

"Great, great! Thank you for being willing to help!" the flight attendant expressed gratitude.

As soon as it was known that there was a doctor on board, everyone made way for Shen Xiaoheng. The noisy voices in the economy class quieted down as Shen Xiaoheng began examining the young man.

At this point, the young man was basically in a state of unconsciousness, and the flight attendant beside him was using a makeshift breathing apparatus to manually assist his breathing.

Under these circumstances, it was impossible to ask him about his medical history.

Shen Xiaoheng conducted a thorough examination and tentatively determined that the young man had asthma. However, in order to determine the specific type of asthma, further investigation was required. Moreover, it seemed that this was the first time the young man had an attack, which made it even more dangerous!

Shen Xiaoheng furrowed his brow and asked the flight attendant, "Is there any asthma medication in the first aid kit?"

The flight attendant shook her head, "No."

As soon as these words were uttered, the passengers erupted in anger, and many began to criticize the airline's staff.

"Asthma medication should always be available. Isn't your airline being irresponsible?"

"That's right! I won't book a flight with this airline again in the future, feeling so unsafe!"

"Me neither!"

For a while, the economy class was in chaos. People were saying all sorts of things, completely forgetting that there was a patient who was in critical condition!

Without any equipment or medication, Shen Xiaoheng was also at a loss.

Suddenly, a sweet and clear voice cut through the commotion and reached everyone's ears, "Let me try!"

Jian Xi went past Shen Xiaoheng and approached the young man. She crouched down and placed her hand on his wrist.

After a couple of breaths, she withdrew her hand and took out a smaller cloth bag from her personal bag.

Unfolding the cloth bag revealed a row of silver needles. Jian Xi asked the flight attendant for alcohol and disinfected the needles.

Shen Xiaoheng looked down at her. Pulse diagnosis? Acupuncture? Did this young girl know traditional Chinese medicine?

Since it was almost summer now, the young man was not wearing much clothing. He had a baseball jacket with a short-sleeved shirt underneath. While disinfecting the silver needles, Jian Xi instructed the people nearby to remove the young man's upper body clothing.

Shen Xiaoheng glanced at his wristwatch and pursed his lips, saying, "Young girl, it's useless. For acute asthma like his, there's no way to alleviate it without medication. We can only hope he can hold on a little longer. The captain should have already contacted the ground. After crossing this ocean, we'll be in City B in less than thirty minutes."

(The above details about asthma are my own setting. I'm not very knowledgeable about it as a non-professional. Hearts!)

Just as Shen Xiaoheng finished speaking, Jian Xi had already pulled the young man's wrist and inserted the first needle into the depression between the radial bone prominence and the scaphoid bone—Taiyuan Acupoint!

Standing up, she held the young man's head with her hand, making him lower his head and expose the back of his neck. Her little hand turned over the highest bone behind the neck, and she inserted another needle into the depression below it—Dingchuan Acupoint!

Jian Xi skillfully manipulated the young man, causing him to bow his head and exposing his entire back. At the same time, she took out two silver needles and swiftly pierced the Gao Huang and Fei Yu acupoints on his back.

(Note: This is a fictional scenario. Do not attempt to imitate!)

Although it seemed complicated, the entire process took less than a minute. Jian Xi lightly flicked each needle, causing them to tremble slightly.

Her actions sparked discussions among the onlookers.

"This young girl looks so young. Can she really perform acupuncture? I hope she's not randomly poking him!"

"I'm not sure, but I've heard that if acupuncture is done incorrectly, it can lead to disability!"

"Oh no! In the past, I only trusted older doctors when it came to traditional Chinese medicine. This girl seems barely of legal age. Isn't she harming people?"

The discussions grew louder, and even the flight attendants started to panic because the young man was still expelling more breath than taking in, showing no signs of waking up.

Shen Xiaoheng, with a slightly widened gaze, observed Jian Xi's calm demeanor. Interesting, this girl is surprisingly bold. Unfortunately, she will definitely face legal consequences for taking a life!

Jian Xi paid no attention to them and silently counted in her mind.

"3."

"2."

"1."

She removed the needles!

At the moment Jian Xi withdrew the last silver needle from the young man's body, a magical scene unfolded before them.

The young man, who had been bowing his head, suddenly lifted it and took deep breaths.

He woke up!

Shen Xiaoheng's eyes widened slightly, a hint of astonishment flickering within them. His gaze towards Jian Xi became intriguing.

Instantly, silence fell upon the entire economy class cabin. Except for the roaring sound of the airplane engine, the only thing left was the young man's heavy breathing!

After a short moment, applause broke the tranquility. Seconds later, it was followed by enthusiastic applause and praise, as if all the doubts and ridicule from before had never existed!

The flight attendants also breathed a sigh of relief.

Jian Xi calmly packed her small cloth bag, then once again took the young man's wrist to feel his pulse. After confirming he was fine, she stood up and said, "Your respiratory condition is severe. After getting off the plane, go to the hospital for a check-up."

Upon realizing that Jian Xi had saved him, the young man quickly expressed his gratitude and wanted to exchange WeChat information, promising to thank her properly after disembarking.

Jian Xi politely declined.

In fact, Jian Xi could have prescribed medicine for him, but his family would not trust a prescription from a stranger. So, it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. As long as she saved him, the rest was not her concern.

Jian Xi secured her bag and carefully zipped it up.

Shen Xiaoheng, who had been motionless, observed her actions and noticed her small bag. He glanced at her attire and raised an eyebrow. Limited edition paired with coarse clothing?

Interesting!

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are currently descending. Please return to your seats, fasten your seat belts, stow your tray tables, and adjust your seat backs to the upright position..."

The voice announcement sounded, and the cabin crew quickly tidied up the first aid kit on the floor. The flight attendant bent down slightly to Jian Xi and Shen Xiaoheng, saying, "Madam, sir, thank you very much for your help. The plane is about to land. Please return to your seats and fasten your seat belts."

Jian Xi nodded. "Okay." When she turned around, the two people next to her had already moved aside, and she thanked them politely.

Shen Xiaoheng also walked towards the first-class cabin. Halfway through, he stopped and looked back at Jian Xi.

He saw her take a deep breath, puff up her cheeks, and then quickly exhale!

Haha, so it turns out she was just pretending to be calm earlier!
