"I don't know if I'm seeing things... but I think, I think I saw those needles move a little," the nurse said, pointing to the dense, reflective silver needles on the girl's chest.

The silver needle is inserted right above the heart. If the needle moves, wouldn't that mean the heart is beating?

The experts, filled with doubt, held their breath and looked at the girl's chest.

A large group of men were staring intently at a girl's chest!

The operating room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

All the experts widened their eyes, wanting to verify whether the nurse had truly misread the image.

Gu Feng, who was already extremely weak, leaned helplessly against Peng Liangpei, staring blankly at the girl who had no expression.

"It moved! It really moved! I saw it clearly, I didn't see wrong, it really moved!" The nurse who had screamed earlier shouted again.

The experts, startled by her shout, all looked at her, but no one blamed her for her sudden outburst; instead, their eyes lit up with delight.

Yes, they all saw it.

The girl's heart really started beating.

At first it was faint, then it slowed down, and finally it became steady.

With each heartbeat, the silver needles embedded in it would create a wave of silvery shimmering light.

As her heartbeat gradually stabilized, the girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, then miraculously opened for a moment, as if unconsciously, yet also as if consciously, glancing at the young man standing before her, before slowly closing again.

"Oh my god, a miracle has really happened! She has a heartbeat again!"

"I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."

"Yes, this...this is absolutely amazing!"

"Her heart stopped beating for over an hour, and she actually survived!"

"..."

The experts chattered excitedly, praising the achievements. Regardless of their differing opinions, one thing was constant—everyone wore a joyful smile.

The heart, which had stopped beating for more than an hour due to drowning, miraculously started beating again.

Miss He, a young and beautiful girl who was supposed to have passed away and was completely lifeless, was actually pulled back from the brink of death by Gu Feng, a young, bold, and miraculous man who didn't even have a formal medical qualification!

This is absolutely a miracle in the history of rescue efforts.

A few weak claps broke out from the noisy operating room, led by Dean Peng, which immediately resonated with everyone. Everyone applauded Gu Feng, the savior who seemed like an angel descended from heaven.

Although Miss He was pulled back from the brink of death by Gu Feng, she was not completely out of danger.

Prolonged cardiac arrest leads to prolonged oxygen deprivation in all organs of the body, and many organs have ceased functioning for an extended period.

Once the heartbeat resumes, other organs, under stress, begin to function again, which can actually cause damage.

Miss He will face a life-or-death challenge next, having to overcome numerous obstacles.

The first hurdle is to restore all vital signs in the body.

The second hurdle is infection.

Because of drowning, it is difficult for the lungs to expel infection after water has entered them; infection can also occur in the intubation tube, bronchi, and lungs; and urinary tract infections can also occur.

With this infection and that infection, she will face a series of infection risks.

The third hurdle is independent breathing.

Miss He still needs to rely on a ventilator to survive, and she will have to work hard to get rid of it and breathe freely.

The fourth hurdle, and the most difficult one to overcome, is when the heart stops beating for more than an hour, which causes enormous damage to the brain's nervous system.

Everyone knows that damage to brain function is often irreversible.

This could lead to cerebral palsy, turning the girl into a vegetable; it could also reduce her IQ to zero, making her an idiot.

Perhaps... anything is possible.

However, no matter how tenacious, resilient, or hard-working the girl needs to be to survive, or how complicated or difficult the subsequent treatment may be, that is none of Gu Feng's concern.

He has done all the strength he could.

He slumped into the chair that Peng Liangpei had brought over, closed his eyes, and began to regain his senses and gather his energy.

Under Dean Peng's command, the rescue and monitoring work continued intensively.

Without his instructions, the medical staff, who had nothing else to do, began clearing the area.

Mao Renxin, who was standing there in a daze with a blank expression, was carried out after the medical staff called him several times without responding.

Everyone thought that this unreasonable, troublemaking guy was just pretending to be crazy and stupid again.

As Mao Renxin was being dragged out, technicians who were repairing and rescuing the equipment arrived at the scene and quickly carried out repairs.

Under Dean Peng's supervision and direction, the emergency treatment proceeded in a tense yet orderly manner...

Outside the operating room, Peng Wanxian saw her husband, Mao Renxin, being dragged out and forced to sit in a chair as if he had lost his soul.

Instead of rushing over to offer her usual concern and care, she looked at him with a complicated, even unfamiliar, gaze.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from the other end of the corridor. A dignified old man in a Zhongshan suit, leaning on a cane, walked briskly, surrounded by a middle-aged couple and a dozen or so men in suits.

Before they even got close, everyone could see the old man's calm and reserved face filled with intense anger and burning anxiety!

The middle-aged woman next to him was already in tears, her face full of sorrow!

The middle-aged man beside her also had a frighteningly gloomy expression.

The row of men in suits behind them all had solemn expressions.

No need to ask, Miss He's real family members have arrived.

"What's going on? What's going on?!" The old man in the Zhongshan suit roared through the corridor with a booming voice, despite his advanced age.

"Mr. He, Mr. He, please let me explain..." Peng Wanxian panicked as soon as she saw the He family members, especially the old man in the Zhongshan suit.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Let me tell you, Mao Renxin and Peng Wanxian, no matter how much of a relationship your Mao family had with our He family in the past, if anything happens to my granddaughter, I will make sure that every single one of you with the surname Mao is buried with her!"

The old man in the Zhongshan suit, enraged, was far more terrifying than Mao Renxin, who had been making a scene earlier.

He pointed at the two men with his cane, still not satisfied. The more he talked, the angrier he became, and he started swinging his cane at them indiscriminately.

With so many people present, whether they were relatives and friends of the He family or the Mao family, almost everyone just watched as Old Master He brutally beat Mao Renxin and his wife, and no one uttered a word to stop him.

It's not that they don't want to, but that they dare not.

What level of person is Mr. He? What a distinguished status he holds.

For him to fly into such a rage, who could Mao Renxin and Peng Wanxian possibly be blaming? They can only blame themselves for their bad luck.

No one else was in trouble, but it was Miss He who was in trouble, and it happened in the Mao family's villa.

However, everyone knew in their hearts that this was just the beginning.

If Miss He really dies like this, the trouble will be far more than what we're facing now.

Right now, almost everyone is praying to the gods and Buddhas, hoping that Miss He will be blessed with good fortune and live a long life, and that she will be able to turn the crisis into safety.

Otherwise, everyone who attended this party today would probably be in deep trouble.

Old He beat the two men for about ten minutes before finally stopping.

But this doesn't mean he's calmed down; it just means he's completely exhausted.

If they were ten or twenty years younger, they might have actually beaten Mao Renxin and Peng Wanxian to death.

The Mao and Peng couple were slapped so hard they were staggering and looked utterly disheveled, a far cry from their arrogant and domineering demeanor they had displayed at the Mao family villa just moments before.

Old He didn't look much better either. He was the one who slapped people, but he was also the one who ended up covered in sweat.

Just then, a woman who had been standing silently to the side without saying a word handed Mr. He a tissue.

Old He, whose anger had just subsided only to be replaced by even greater grief, was about to reach out and slap the woman away when he heard her weak voice say, "Please don't be anxious, sir. I believe your granddaughter will be blessed with good fortune and will get through this safely. The doctors are inside trying to save her right now. If you keep shouting and yelling here, it might interfere with their efforts, and that would be truly counterproductive. I completely understand how you feel, but please, please stay calm."

Upon hearing this, everyone broke out in a cold sweat for the woman.

This woman is really courting death. At a time like this, she still dares to say such things to contradict Old He. Isn't she just asking for trouble?
