Apocalyptic Disaster: I Hoard Billions in Supplies and Kill the Saint

44: Chapter 44 The Miracle of the Spirit SpringThe previous attending physician walked in with two nurses, and upon seeing the glass bottle in Lin Xiao’s hand, his brow furrowed sharply.

”What are you doing?!”

The doctor’s expression darkened, and he stepped forward, his tone serious.

”Mr. Lin, the patient’s current condition is extremely fragile. Any unknown liquid that hasn’t been medically verified could worsen her condition!”

The nurse quickly chimed in as well.

”That’s right! You can’t just feed her random things now. With such a serious illness, nothing you drink will be useful!”

Lin Xiao’s expression changed slightly, and he tightened his grip on the bottle.

Ye Nanxing’s eyes turned slightly cold as she looked at the doctor indifferently.

”This bottle of water will not harm anyone.”

The doctor sneered.

”Then tell me, what kind of water is this? What medical evidence proves it’s effective?”

Ye Nanxing’s expression remained indifferent.

”Medical evidence? It is enough that I say it works.”

The mockery on the doctor’s face deepened, his tone filled with disdain.

”Mr. Lin, you don’t actually believe her, do you? Your mother needs professional treatment, not these unverified products!”

”This is murder!”

Han Yiran frowned and couldn’t help but interject.

”Doctor, didn’t you also say that there are no treatment options left?”

The doctor paused, his tone stiff.

”...Medically speaking, we really have no way, but that doesn’t mean you can just mess around!”

The nurse echoed.

”Exactly, what if something goes wrong after she drinks it? Can you take responsibility for that?”

Lin Xiao’s expression was incredibly grim.

He stared intently at the glass bottle, then at Lin Xiaos Mother on the hospital bed, who was down to her last breath, his eyes flickering violently!

Reason told him that the doctor was right!

But his instinct was screaming wildly—try it!

He was at a dead end!

Watching his struggle, Ye Nanxing chuckled softly, her tone indifferent.

”Lin Xiao, do you trust the doctor, or do you trust yourself?”

Lin Xiao looked up abruptly, his eyes shaking!

”Your mother can’t hold on for much longer.”

Ye Nanxing’s tone was calm, devoid of any emotion.

”If you trust the doctor, then follow their plan and wait to prepare for the funeral arrangements.”

”But if you trust yourself, then pick up the spoon and let her drink it!”

Lin Xiao’s fingers tightened abruptly!

Looking at his mother’s face, his eyes became determined in an instant!

He would not let his mother just lie there and wait for death!

Without any hesitation, he directly scooped up a spoonful of spiritual spring water and fed it to his mother mouthful by mouthful!

”Lin Xiao! Are you crazy?!”

The doctor’s expression changed drastically, and he reached out to stop him.

Fortunately, he was stopped by Han Yiran, who had been watching from the side.

Lin Xiao ignored the doctor rushing over, his eyes fixed on his mother, his fingers trembling slightly, as if waiting for a miracle to happen!

Just a few seconds later—

A miracle had truly descended!

Lin Xiaos Mother, who had been bloodless on the hospital bed, actually slowly regained a hint of color!

Her eyes, which had been unable to open, twitched slightly!

Lin Xiao widened his eyes abruptly, his voice trembling.

”Mom?!”

Lin Xiaos Mother’s lips moved slightly, and she weakly but clearly uttered a word.

”...Water.”

The doctor and the nurse instantly widened their eyes, faces full of shock!

”This... how is this possible?!”

The doctor took a step forward in disbelief, his eyes fixed on Lin Xiaos Mother on the hospital bed.

A patient who was in critical condition, unable to eat or open her eyes... actually showed obvious signs of life within a few seconds?!

This simply did not align with medical common sense!

Han Yiran, standing to the side, was also too shocked to speak!

Lin Xiao could not care about anyone else at this moment; he grabbed his mother’s hand, his eyes slightly reddened.

”Mom, how do you feel?”

Lin Xiaos Mother’s eyelashes fluttered, her eyelids seemed heavy, but in the end, they slowly opened a crack!

”...Xiao...er...”

At this moment, Lin Xiao’s tears almost burst forth!

He gritted his teeth, his voice choked with emotion.

”Mom! It’s me, Xiaoer! You’re awake!”

Lin Xiaos Mother’s gaze was somewhat hazy, but compared to the weakness from before, she was clearly much more lucid.

She slowly revealed a faint smile, her voice as light as a breeze.

”...I... I’m not in pain anymore...”

In the hospital ward, there was a deathly silence!

The doctor seemed as if he had been struck by lightning, the expression on his face frozen, his eyes filled with disbelief!

”This... this...”

His lips trembled; he could not explain the miracle before him at all!

The nurse gasped, almost unable to stand steady!

Ye Nanxing watched this scene, her eyes deep.

She knew that the effects of the spiritual spring water had only just begun!

Although Lin Xiaos Mother’s face had regained a hint of color and she was even able to speak weakly, her condition was still very poor, her breathing remained shallow, and the disease had not been completely eradicated.

Lin Xiao held his mother’s hand, his eyes filled with both wild joy and deep anxiety!

This mysterious bottle of water was truly effective!

But it wasn’t enough!

He could feel that his mother had only temporarily recovered, but she was still far from a true recovery!

He looked up abruptly at Ye Nanxing, his eyes extremely grave.

”Miss Ye, I know... that bottle of water was something you brought specifically.”

Ye Nanxing’s expression remained unchanged as she looked at him, saying nothing.

Lin Xiao stared fixedly at her, his tone low and firm.

”I beg you, give me some more!”

Upon hearing this, the doctor and nurse’s expressions changed instantly!

The doctor couldn’t help but speak up.

”Mr. Lin, calm down! We don’t even know what that thing she just gave your mother to drink is—”

Lin Xiao turned his head abruptly, his gaze as sharp as a knife.

”Doctor, can you save my mom?”

The doctor’s lips trembled, and his face froze.

He opened his mouth, but ultimately remained silent.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath, slowly lowered his head to look at his mother on the hospital bed, his voice trembling slightly.

”I cannot watch her die... even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I am willing to try!”

He looked suddenly at Ye Nanxing, his eyes filled with unprecedented determination.

”No matter what you ask me to do, I am willing, as long as you are willing to give me more of that water!”

”Please, save my mom!”

His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable obsession!

Han Yiran watched Lin Xiao from the side, a flash of complexity in his eyes.

Lin Xiao was a person who rarely begged others.

But for his mother, he had unexpectedly set aside all his pride without hesitation, directly demeaning himself to beg Ye Nanxing!

This was not just filial piety, but a near-insane obsession!

Ye Nanxing looked at Lin Xiao, her eyes calm, and after a few seconds of silence, she suddenly smiled slightly.

”...You are willing to do anything?”

Lin Xiao nodded without hesitation.

”Yes!”

His voice was firm, carrying a sense of determination that he would not regret even in death!

Ye Nanxing raised an eyebrow slightly, her gaze deep.

”Then what if I want your life?”

Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback, but then answered without hesitation.

”As long as my mom can live, you can have my life!”
