Capítulo 6: Chapter 6: Four Bottles of Water Plus Two Fists, The Person Came Back to Life
"Get away! Don't you touch my grandfather!"
"Lu Xiao, you just wait, even if it costs me my life, I'll drag you down to hell!"
Qin Youling glared fiercely at the advancing Lu Xiao, her hoarse voice filled with resentment and regret.
She regretted that she had trusted Lu Xiao, and regretted even more bringing him to her grandfather's birthday banquet.
If it weren't for Lu Xiao, her grandfather might have been saved by Zhai Tianmin by now, instead of growing gradually colder.
Lu Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked down at Qin Youling, who was half kneeling in front of the long table.
Then, Lu Xiao slowly bent over, his head close to Qin Youling's ear, his expression almost sneering: "Well, let's listen to the wife. If we live, we share the same quilt; if we die, the same grave."
"You..."
"Do you have other options than to trust me now?"
Qin Youling was about to explode in anger but Lu Xiao interrupted her, the words stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
Indeed, she had no choice or way out now except to trust that Lu Xiao had the ability to avert the crisis.
"Doctor Zhai, right, don't just stand there, move that case of mineral water at your feet over here," Lu Xiao then turned to Zhai Tianmin.
Zhai Tianmin laughed in rage: "Fine, today I'll witness how a soldier brings a man back from the dead."
As he spoke, Zhai Tianmin picked up the case of mineral water and with a thud, slammed it next to Lu Xiao's feet.
Lu Xiao didn't care about Zhai Tianmin's nasty attitude, bent down, took out a bottle of mineral water, and unscrewed it.
"Old Sir Qin's lips are all cracked, come on, let's rehydrate," Lu Xiao murmured. Then, under everyone's gaze, he stuffed the mouth of the water bottle into Old Sir Qin's mouth.
Lu Xiao squeezed the bottle firmly and under the pressure, the entire bottle of water rushed down.
Old Sir Qin's belly visibly swelled a bit.
"Still not enough, it seems." Lu Xiao clicked his tongue and grabbed another bottle, continuing to pour.
By the time the third bottle was finished, Old Sir Qin's belly had swelled significantly.
Under the reflux, streams of stomach acid gushed out of the old man's mouth, sour and foul-smelling.
Zhai Tianmin could no longer bear it, this young man wasn't saving anyone, he was clearly humiliating Old Sir Qin!
Old Sir Qin had had a sudden cardiac arrest, what use was pouring water!
"You, stop right now!" When Lu Xiao reached for another bottle of mineral water, Zhai Tianmin roared and lunged at him.
Lu Xiao held off Zhai Tianmin with his left hand and continued to pour with his right hand.
"You beast, you will get your comeuppance!" Zhai Tianmin cursed while struggling, but he couldn't break free from Lu Xiao's grip.
Lu Xiao glanced at Zhai Tianmin, this guy did seem to have some genuine concern for Old Qin.
Look at those Qin Family members, not a single one is trying to stop me; it's clear they're just waiting for me to finish the old man off.
"Too bad, you're all going to be disappointed." After the fourth bottle was poured, Lu Xiao's mouth suddenly curved upward.
The next moment, Lu Xiao released Zhai Tianmin and slapped Old Sir Qin's body forcefully with both palms.
One palm hit the abdomen, the other landed on the chest.
"Bang!" The immense force made the long table beneath Old Sir Qin emit a dull sound.
Simultaneously, the strong palm strike forced all the water in Old Sir Qin's stomach to be squeezed out.
A large amount of water mixed with some yellowish-white substance spurted out, further disarraying the long table.
Many of the Qin Family members covered their noses and mouths and stepped back; the smell was truly nauseating.
"I beg you, please, have some decency for Old Sir Qin!"
"Miss, you... you have to stop him!" Watching the appalling scene unfolding before him, Zhai Tianmin was almost on his knees.
Old Sir Qin was such a good person, yet at the end of his life, he had to endure such torment.
Qin Youling bit her lips fiercely, her inner pain and despair even greater than Zhai Tianmin's.
But what could she do?
She too wanted to stop Lu Xiao, even wanted to take out a knife and give Lu Xiao a good stabbing to the heart.
But she couldn't, she had to believe in Lu Xiao, believe that he could work a miracle...
"Beep... beep..." Suddenly, the clear sound of a monitor pierced the air.
Zhai Tianmin, who had been on the verge of collapse, trembled violently and fixed his gaze on the household heart monitor.
Heart rate: 43
Blood pressure: 50/80
Oxygen saturation: 82
Respiratory rate: 12
And these values were still slowly rising.
The heart was resuscitating! How... how was this possible!
Lu Xiao had only given Old Sir Qin four bottles of water and then slapped him twice; was this scientific? Was this reasonable?
At that moment, Zhai Tianmin's worldview and medical beliefs nearly collapsed.
He even felt that his decades of medical training had been for nothing...
Lu Xiao glanced at the stunned Zhai Tianmin and spoke softly, "Doctor Zhai's resuscitation process was correct, the problem is that Old Qin couldn't use adrenaline."
Zhai Tianmin looked confused. He couldn't use adrenaline?
Impossible! Old Sir Qin had been in critical condition before, and it was adrenaline that had brought him back.
"Don't you think, Old Sir Qin's symptoms, very much resemble poisoning?" Lu Xiao whispered another sentence.
Zhai Tianmin's face turned pale. Poisoning?
"You should have checked Old Qin's condition, what poison do you think it was?" Lu Xiao asked.
The symptoms of Old Qin flashed through Zhai Tianmin's mind: it started with nausea, vomiting, difficulty breathing and mask face, followed by constricted pupils, drooling at the mouth with hallucinations, and finally, convulsions, loss of consciousness and sudden cardiac arrest.
"Chlorpromazine!" Zhai Tianmin quickly concluded.
But as he came to this conclusion, Zhai Tianmin's expression became one of terror; using adrenaline during chlorpromazine poisoning was nine times out of ten a death sentence.
But how could Old Sir Qin be poisoned with chlorpromazine?
Chlorpromazine is commonly used to treat psychiatric disorders, and Old Sir Qin had no such problems.
Could it be... someone was poisoning him?
"Don't make a fuss," Lu Xiao reminded him quietly.
Zhai Tianmin swallowed hard and tried to compose himself, but his heart was still pounding wildly.
Old Sir Qin's daily life, medication, and diet were all managed by designated individuals. Apart from people close to the Qin Family, no one else could tamper with them.
Which meant, Old Qin's chlorpromazine poisoning was highly likely the doing of one of his descendants.
And using chlorpromazine was extremely malicious, it was a calculated guess that adrenaline would be needed during resuscitation, done deliberately!
Damn, these large families are too damn dangerous.
