Elder Huo agreed repeatedly before Yi Zheng helped him sit down on the sofa.

The two of them held their breaths and focused. They did not dare to move for fear that they would disturb Shi Man’s movements.

Shi Man’s hands were very stable. After the silver needle pierced through the skin and into the acupuncture point, she let go and continued to repeat her previous actions.

Soon, after Shi Man placed the last silver needle, she retracted her hand.

Just as Elder Huo was about to ask something, he heard the unconscious person on the bed suddenly let out an inaudible moan.

He hurriedly rushed to the bed and lowered his body to listen carefully to what Huo Ningwas saying.

After waiting for a long time, Huo Ning did not say anything.

Old Master Huo could not help but feel a little disappointed.

He couldn’t remember how long it had been since he had spoken to his granddaughter properly.

However, it made sense. How could Huo Ning’s poison be so easy to cure?

It was normal for Shi Man’s method to fail.

Thinking of this, Old Master Huo sighed deeply as his eyes were filled with disappointment. “Alright, Manman, you must be tired by now. Why don’t you stay and rest for the night?”

Even if Shi Man’s method did not work, she was still bent on saving Huo Ning. Logically speaking, the Huo family should treat her well.

However, just as he finished speaking, the person on the hospital bed suddenly spoke again.

Huo Ning opened her eyes and saw the old man with his back facing him. She couldn’t help but swallow and call out, “Grandpa.”

Old Master Huo immediately turned around excitedly. Seeing that Huo Ning’s eyes were filled with clarity, he held her hand in disbelief and said, “Ningning, are you really awake? How do you feel now?”

Huo Ning had not felt her body for a long time, but for some reason, she felt a burning pain in her chest today. Other than the numbness in her limbs, she could actually move simply. This made her overjoyed.

“Grandpa, I think 1 can try moving!”

“Really?” Old Master Huo immediately helped Huo Ning up to see if she had really recovered.

However, before he could move, Shi Man had already raised her hand to stop him. “Not yet.”

Old Master Huo was very obedient to Shi Man now. When she said no, he immediately retracted his hand, but he still asked worriedly, “Why not? Manman, when can Ningning get out of bed?”

“A month later.” Shi Man bent down and lifted Huo Ning’s eyelids. She carefully observed her physical condition and said slowly, “There’s still poison in her body. I’ll write down the medicine she has to take every day later. She has to take it once every morning, noon, and night. A month later, she can go to the rehabilitation center to recuperate and her body will gradually return to normal.”

“That’s great!” Old Master Huo was so excited that tears streamed down his face. He grabbed Shi Man’s hand and was so grateful that he was almost speechless. “Manman, I really don’t know how to thank you.”

Huo Ning’s condition had worsened recently, and her tongue was stiff, making it difficult for her to speak. He had not heard her call him “Grandpa” for a long time. He did not expect Shi Man’s method to have such a huge effect after just one round of acupuncture. Now, he completely believed Shi Man’s words that his granddaughter would return to normal in a month.

Therefore, Old Master Huo did not hesitate at all. He immediately asked the butler to bring the contract and handed over more than half of the mining rights to Yi Zheng.

However, Yi Zheng remembered his previous promise and got the butler to redraft the contract to give the mining rights to Shi Man.

Old Master Huo was slightly surprised for a moment before patting Yi Zheng’s shoulder in satisfaction.

He did not expect this kid to be so infatuated. It was very rare for a man to give up everything for the person he liked. Yi Zheng would definitely be a good husband in the future.

However, Shi Man did not really want to take it all for herself. After all, she didn’t want to invite unnecessary troubles. She still gave some to Yi Zheng symbolically.

At this moment, the Sui family and the Jiang family did not know that the mine rights had been decided.

At the Sui family residence, Sui Ze looked at the huge gift that had been returned in front of him again and sighed worriedly. “I don’t know what this Jiang Huan wants, but he actually returned everything we gave! Even if he’s a divine doctor, he’s just a doctor. Doesn’t he know the principle of not overdoing it?”

Sui Yan frowned and was at a loss. “Dad, why don’t I go over personally tomorrow to show our family’s sincerity?”

Hearing this, Sui Ling suddenly raised his head and said, “Yes, make a trip there yourself. Perhaps Jiang Huan will agree if you go. Remember to dress up beautifully.”

Sui Yan’s face turned pale. She bit her lower lip to suppress the humiliation in her heart. “Dad, I’m only going to send gifts on behalf of our family. I won’t do anything else, nor can I do anything else.”

Sui Ze looked at his daughter deeply and sneered. “I know who you’ve been thinking about all these years, but his status in the Jiang family is unstable.. What can he do at this time? If he really has feelings for you, let him go with you and think of a way to get Jiang Huan to agree!”
