A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.

Two people stood outside the door, a well-dressed and distinguished middle-aged couple.

Upon closer inspection, Gu Feng realized that these were He Qiaoqing's parents, He Tiansheng and Zhong Yufen.

Previously at Peng Wanxian's house, the girl was drowning, and it was Gu Feng who saved her.

"Hello, doctor."

He Tiansheng greeted her warmly, and Zhong Yufen smiled and nodded in return.

"Mr. He, Ms. Zhong? Rare guests indeed! Please come in!"

Gu Feng was a little surprised, but in the spirit of "guests are always welcome", he still warmly invited the two into the house.

"It's just a small token of my appreciation."

He Tiansheng was clearly not used to delivering gifts in person. He was carrying something in his hand, and if his wife, Zhong Yufen, hadn't quietly nudged him, he would have forgotten to hand it over.

He also gave gifts in a stiff manner. When others gave gifts, they would just say a few words, put the gift aside, and then talk about other things.

He simply held the bag in his hand and handed it straight to Gu Feng.

"Mr. He, you're too kind." Gu Feng replied casually. Seeing that the bag was heavy, he assumed it contained fruit or snacks, took it, and put it aside.

Upon seeing the guests arrive, Shi Yurou quickly offered them seats and made tea, greeting them with grace and poise.

"Doctor, who is this?"

Zhong Yufen had met Su Man'er and remembered that the girl had calmed down the old man's anger with just a few words, so she had a deep impression of her.

But the woman in front of him, though young and beautiful, was clearly not the one he was looking for, so he couldn't help but ask her another question.

Gu Feng felt a little awkward when Shi Yurou's identity was mentioned.

They were more than just patients; they were also more than friends, as she had moved into their home, and the two of them were living together alone.

If this isn't explained properly, it can easily lead to misunderstandings.

I don't care about myself, but I'm afraid of ruining Shi Yurou's reputation.

Just as she was wondering how to start the conversation, Shi Yurou preemptively introduced herself with a smile: "I'm a friend of Sister Gu Feng. His sister is currently away on a business trip and is worried about him, so she asked me to take care of his daily needs for the time being."

Temporary babysitter?

The word popped into He Tiansheng's and Zhong Yufen's minds at the same time.

But this "nanny" is too beautiful, and her temperament is so outstanding. How could an ordinary family afford to hire her? Even eating and sleeping are taken care of by someone. It seems that this doctor has quite a lot of entourage.

"Sister Rou, these two are the parents of one of my patients, Mr. He and Ms. Zhong. This is my sister's friend, Shi Yurou," Gu Feng introduced them.

"Hehe, doctor, don't be so polite. Calling me 'Mr.' or 'Ms.' sounds too formal. I'm a generation older than you. If you don't mind me taking advantage, just call me Uncle He and my wife Aunt Zhong," He Tiansheng said with a smile.

"Hello, Uncle He, Aunt Zhong," Shi Yurou greeted them immediately, her words sweet and charming.

Helpless, Gu Feng could only call out as well.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two still didn't explain their purpose. Gu Feng then took the initiative to ask, "Uncle He, Aunt Zhong, I've been busy with my studies lately and haven't been to the hospital in a long time. I wonder how your daughter is doing?"

When they talked about their daughter, both of them looked worried.

"To be honest, the reason we've taken the liberty of coming here is because of Xiao Qing's matter," He Tiansheng said with a wry smile.

It turned out that Gu Feng had almost gone mad that day, pulling He Qiaoqing back from the brink of death in the operating room.

After 24 hours, her vital signs gradually stabilized, but she remained unconscious.

He Qiaoqing came from a prominent family and held a prestigious position. Dean Peng dared not neglect her, organizing several consultations with experts and professors within the hospital, exhausting all available resources, but to no avail. He Qiaoqing remained trapped in a deep coma.

Finally, after discussion, Dean Peng and the experts had to announce a harsh conclusion to the family: He Qiaoqing's cerebral cortex function was severely damaged, and she was in an irreversible deep coma with no conscious activity. Although she was still alive, she was only maintaining spontaneous breathing and a heartbeat, which was essentially the same as being in a vegetative state.

This conclusion came as a bolt from the blue.

Zhong Yufen fainted on the spot, He Tiansheng seemed to age ten years overnight, and Old Master He almost had a stroke from worry.

Seeing that the Municipal People's Hospital had done its best, the family transferred He Qiaoqing to the Provincial People's Hospital and even spent a lot of money to invite well-known experts from home and abroad for consultation.

But the result was still the same; even those renowned doctors and authorities were helpless in the face of He Qiaoqing's vegetative state.

All they can do is provide nutritional therapy, physical therapy, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Finally, the director of the Provincial People's Hospital offered a desperate measure: "With current treatment options, as long as financial resources allow, it doesn't matter where you are. Why not bring her home, let her live in a familiar and comforting environment, let her be talked to by loved ones, have heart-to-heart talks with her, talk about familiar people and things, and play her favorite music? Although vegetative state patients are unconscious and have cognitive impairments, they often respond to auditory stimuli. Using this kind of emotional therapy to stimulate brain nerves is the only method we can try."

This idea was indeed a bit bad, but now that things had come to this, He Tiansheng and his doting grandpa He had no choice but to take He Qiaoqing home.

When He Tiansheng and Zhong Yufen came to Gu Feng this time, they didn't have high expectations. They didn't expect him to have any magic pills that could immediately wake He Qiaoqing up.

So many experts and professors, both domestic and international, have examined the case, but none of them have a solution. Besides, Gu Feng is just a young doctor who has just started his career.

They came because He Qiaoqing was lying in bed day after day, her body was getting thinner and thinner, and her spirits were getting worse. She needed a doctor who knew traditional Chinese massage and acupuncture to give her physical therapy to prevent her muscles from atrophying further.

Shenzhen is a melting pot of all sorts of people, but only two families truly wield absolute influence.

First, there's the Ding family, whose mere sneeze can send shivers down the spines of the underworld; second, there's the He family, whose stomp of their feet can shake the legitimate world.

The He family and the Ding family represent opposing forces, one righteous and the other wicked. Naturally, more people would want to curry favor with the He family. Therefore, if the He family wanted to hire a doctor, they only needed to say so, and renowned doctors of all ranks would line up to choose from.

However, the He family has always been low-key and dislikes sycophants. So this time, they approached Dean Peng, with whom they had recently had considerable dealings.

It's true that Dean Peng is mercenary; everyone can see that. But he also has his bottom line and generally doesn't actively curry favor with those in power.

But now that the opportunity has come knocking, why should we turn it down?

He was a doctor, and he had a large team of several hundred people, young and old.

But those veterans absolutely cannot be sent. Those people are all cunning and shrewd, as clever as ghosts, and they've been eyeing his position as dean all along.

If someone manages to get close to the He family and then tries to take advantage of them, wouldn't that be like shooting themselves in the foot?

But if we send someone young and easy to control, it's a bit unacceptable. What if the Ho family thinks he's just going through the motions?

Dean Peng was really racking his brains trying to find someone who was both capable and wouldn't turn on him after receiving a free meal.

After much thought, there was only one candidate – Gu Feng.

Although Gu Feng was young, he was a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine. Despite lacking work experience, he truly created a miracle, pulling He Qiaoqing back from the brink of death.

This young man is a bit stubborn, but he respects himself and is usually obedient.

Moreover, he had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with his own daughter; if things went well, he might even become her son-in-law in the future. After careful consideration, he recommended Gu Feng to the He family.

Upon hearing that the recommended doctor was Gu Feng, the He family was naturally pleased.

After all, he was the one who saved He Qiaoqing's life, and he had done a great favor for the He family.

Fearing that Gu Feng would be offended, they didn't even allow Dean Peng to use his power to pressure him, but instead came to invite him in person.

Gu Feng understood that the couple had come to ask him to be He Qiaoqing's rehabilitation doctor, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

He has so much "homework" to do right now, learning this and practicing that, he's so busy he doesn't have time to take on this job.

Seeing that Gu Feng remained silent for a long time, Zhong Yufen quietly tugged at her husband's sleeve.

He Tiansheng understood and quickly said, "Doctor, you've already done our family a great favor, so we shouldn't make such a presumptuous request. But we really don't trust any other doctor. You see..."

Seeing her husband rambling on and on without getting to the point, Zhong Yufen grew anxious and interjected, "Doctor, don't worry, we will definitely not shortchange you on your payment. We've already inquired beforehand and know your rules. The consultation fee of one hundred taels of gold is ready; it's in the carriage outside. As long as you nod, we'll have someone bring it in right away!"

"Uh, it's not about the money, it's just that I really don't have much time right now," Gu Feng politely declined.

He Tiansheng and Zhong Yufen exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat uncomfortable.

They had never begged anyone so humbly in their entire lives.

But for the sake of my precious daughter, I had no choice but to swallow my pride and do it.

"Doctor, it won't take much time. Just two hours a day should be enough," He Tiansheng said, pleading with himself.

"If you're not free during the day, evenings are fine too." Zhong Yufen lowered her requirements again.

Having said all that, Gu Feng couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so he could only nod and say, "Alright, since Uncle He and Aunt Zhong think so highly of me, then I'll agree."
