Neera smiled, and felt that her mood was even sweeter than the cake.
Just as the lovebirds were smiling at each other, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
An old man at the next table suddenly collapsed on the ground.
He was convulsing all over, and even knocked down a chair.
Everyone in the tea house was suddenly shocked. Some people that were close to him even let out some shrieks.
“Oh my gosh! Is he having a seizure? He’s foaming at the mouth! What do we do?”
Neera was stunned as well, and looked over.
She saw that the old man was non-stop spouting foam from his mouth, and his limbs were twisting in weird angles while his body was convulsing.
The tea house staff was also startled, and ran over to take a look.
He quickly dropped the tray in his hands and squatted behind the old man. But he were at a loss as to what they should do.
“Boss! Boss!”
Neera was overwhelmed. She didn’t expect that the old man was actually the boss of the tea house.
The situation was urgent. She couldn’t afford to overthink, and immediately went over to help him.
“Don’t simply touch his body. I am a doctor, I can take a look.”
The staff was in a panic. Hearing that she was a doctor, he took a few steps back without hesitation, and let Neera take charge.
“I’m so sorry miss, no, doctor. Please help us save our boss!”
Neera nodded, and immediately checked the old man’s condition.
After she ensured that he could be moved, she immediately got people to help her to carry the old man to a room upstairs.
She then checked the old man’s pulse.
The whole room was tense. She could feel the frown on her forehead deepen.
She found that the old man’s condition was very strange. His pulse was all over the place, so she couldn’t tell what his diagnosis was at the moment.
She then asked the staff. “How was your boss’s health in the past? Has this or any other bad situation happened before?”
He thought for a moment, and shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
Right then, Jean suddenly pointed at the old man’s neck and asked her: “What is this?”
Neera turned her head to look, and found that there were a few thin purple streaks on the old man’s right side of his neck. It looked like it was right on the surface of his skin.
Her face turned cold instantaneously, and yanked his shirt open.
There were purple streaks all over his chest!
Neera and Jean were shell shocked.
The staff was also startled. “Wha… What is this? Why does it look so horrifying?” He asked, trembling in fear.
Neera didn’t answer him, took out a few silver needles from her bag, and sanitized them. She then found a few acupuncture points on his body and inserted them quickly and steadily.
She responded quickly and her technique was sharp and neat. She could barely contain the spread of the purple streaks.
After half an hour, the streaks started to fade and shorten in length.
She checked his pulse again, and sighed in relief.
“Luckily, his illness is not too serious this time. After treating him in time, he should be able to steadily recover.”
Hearing that, the staff could see that his boss’s complexion looked much better and less pale. He then relaxed in relief.
“Thank you so much, doctor! You’ve just saved our boss’s life! We need to repay you!”
Neera kept her silver needles away. “No need to do that. Just remember to give me another set of cakes the next time I’m here.”
The staff nodded his head. “Of course! I’ll definitely remember to do that!”
Then, Neera explained any potential precautions to take to the staff, and left with Jean.
After exiting the tea house, Jean saw that his girlfriend was still a little perplexed. She didn’t look as happy as when they came, as if she knew something.
“What were those purple streaks just now?” He asked.
Neera’s face darkened, and said a single word. “Wugs.”
Hearing the word, Jean frowned. “Again?”
“I’m not sure why either.” She shook her head. “We’ve seen two people get infected by wugs the past two days. This is obviously something wrong. The streaks on the old man’s body just now were already purple. That wasn’t a good sign at all, there may be a mother wug in his body!”
She then bit the corner of her lip and said harshly: “I didn’t dare to investigate further. I don’t want to get into any more trouble!”
