To Save Your White Moonlight, You Harmed My Mother. I Ask for a Divorce, So Why Are You Crying? - Chapter 3:
Chapter 3: Heir to the Divine Needle of the Nine Suns, Leader of All Needles!
No one expected the person walking in to be Ye Cang!
This hospital was owned by the Gu Family. From the board of directors to the nursing staff, everyone knew that Director Gu had a discarded husband. It had even become a popular topic of gossip.
Gu Yuyao nearly lost her temper and quickly stepped forward, saying, “Why are you here? Whatever it is, talk later. I’m busy right now…”
In her eyes, Ye Cang must have regretted the divorce.
“Excuse me, miss, who are you?” Ye Cang’s next sentence nearly made Gu Yuyao choke.
He was pretending not to know her?
A cold smirk curved Ye Cang’s lips. He had given his sincerity in marriage, only to be treated like a dog. Now that he’d left behind the past glory, she dared ask who he was?
Ignoring her, Ye Cang confidently walked into the meeting room, scanning all the gathered experts with a calm smile. The experts, led by Kang Zhengbang, all frowned uncomfortably, feeling as if they were being inspected like soldiers before a commander.
“Xiao Cang, you finally came!” Gu Zhenghong rushed forward excitedly when he saw Ye Cang. “But why didn’t you come with Yuyao?”
Since they had arrived separately, Gu Zhenghong assumed the young couple had quarreled.
Ye Cang replied with a gentle smile, “Grandpa Gu, from now on, my mother and I won’t trouble you anymore.”
Gu Zhenghong’s expression shifted slightly. He found the words odd, but couldn’t quite say why.
“Let’s focus on the matter at hand!” Gu Zhenghong didn’t dwell on it and looked at Ye Cang, “Xiao Cang, if you have any ideas, don’t hesitate to speak.”
Ye Cang’s voice rang through the room, “I can cure Qin Caishen’s illness.”
“BOOM!”
The room exploded into uproar.
All the experts erupted in anger.
“Ridiculous! If you don’t know anything, stop pretending. There are thirty-six renowned experts here. We even used special medicine, and it didn’t work. You think a clueless boy like you can do it? Know when to stop spouting nonsense!”
“Yeah! You haven’t even grown all your hair, and you want to practice medicine? Human lives aren’t a joke!”
“Old Director, who did you bring? This is just a waste of time!”
Led by Kang Zhengbang, the crowd of experts began scolding him without reservation. After all, even rare special medicine had failed. No one believed a nobody like Ye Cang could succeed.
Gu Yuyao didn’t understand why her grandfather would place hope in Ye Cang. “Grandpa, don’t believe his nonsense. If he could really heal people, would his mother’s condition still need treatment at our hospital?”
She turned to Ye Cang and said coldly, “Ye Cang, keep our private matters out of work.”
So he was trying to play smart in front of Grandpa now? As long as he won over Grandpa, he thought he could stay close to her? Dream on.
How had she never noticed how scheming Ye Cang was?
Clearly, Brother Yanqing’s return had pressured him. First he proposed divorce, and now he was clinging to her grandfather. But the more he acted like this, the more she had to prove herself—not stoop to such attention-seeking antics. Otherwise, he’d never measure up to even a strand of Brother Yanqing’s hair in this life!
“Enough! All of you, shut up!” Gu Zhenghong suddenly roared, and the entire room fell into dead silence.
“Is there any other option?” His grim gaze swept across the room. “If any of you have the ability, step forward with a treatment plan.”
No one responded. They didn’t even know what illness Qin Caishen had. Who would dare take that risk?
“I still don’t trust him. What if something goes wrong? Who takes responsibility then?” Kang Zhengbang argued sternly.
“I do,” Ye Cang and Gu Zhenghong said in unison.
They exchanged a look. Ye Cang sighed inwardly—how could such a noble grandfather have such a disappointing granddaughter?
“Fine! Old Director, you said it. If something happens, you take the blame.” The stone hanging over Kang Zhengbang’s heart was finally lifted. In the end, he just didn’t want to be responsible.
“Grandpa! What nonsense are you saying? No! I don’t agree!” Gu Yuyao refused to accept it. Letting someone who knew nothing about medicine try treatment was no different from sentencing the patient to death.
“Director Gu, even the Old Director has agreed. What are you objecting to?” Kang Zhengbang was already grinning inside. If something did go wrong, his position as ‘Deputy’ Director might become ‘Director’!
“Besides, he’s your husband, right? You should trust him unconditionally!”
Gu Yuyao was rendered speechless and filled with resentment toward Ye Cang.
“Director! It’s no good! The patient’s vitals are rapidly declining!” a staff member reported urgently.
Gu Zhenghong immediately looked to Ye Cang.
Ye Cang nodded, “I’ll begin. But I need an assistant to wipe my sweat.”
He pointed, “She’ll do.”
“What?!” The words shocked everyone.
Gu Yuyao was furious. She, the hospital director, would be reduced to wiping sweat?
“Fine… if you fail, I’ll see how you end this.” She was convinced Ye Cang was doing this to humiliate her!
She knew him too well. In three years of marriage, she never saw him practice medicine.
Kang Zhengbang and the other experts had the same thought. They all stood silently outside the glass door, watching.
Inside the operating room lay a pale-faced middle-aged man—Qin Donglei, the famous Qin Caishen.
Ye Cang took one look and calmly inserted a needle into Qin Donglei’s body.
“Absurd!” Kang Zhengbang laughed angrily, pointing at Ye Cang’s movements. “You call that acupuncture? He’s just stabbing randomly!”
But no one responded to him.
Gu Zhenghong and the other doctors were watching closely—not the patient, but Ye Cang’s hands.
Those hands moved like a dancer’s, and the silver needles became extensions of his intent. The needles flew swiftly—piercing, lifting—until only their shadows could be seen.
“The Divine Needle of the Nine Suns! It’s the lost Divine Needle of the Nine Suns!” Gu Zhenghong exclaimed outside the room.
“What Divine Needle of the Nine Suns…” Kang Zhengbang was still confused.
“It’s the most powerful of all needles—known as the ‘King Yama’s Bane,’ the Divine Needle of the Nine Suns!” Gu Zhenghong, oblivious to Kang Zhengbang’s darkening expression, continued excitedly, “There are nine needles in total. If one masters the ninth, it’s as if they’ve added a line to the Book of Life and Death—even King Yama can’t take you!”
“It was lost a hundred years ago! Who would’ve thought Xiao Cang is its heir!”
Gu Zhenghong was thrilled. He secretly celebrated his decision. Kneeling to beg for this marriage back then had been the right move! He had asked Gu Yuyao to bring Ye Cang today to gamble—and he had won!
After all, Ye Cang’s mother had terrifying Medical Skills. There was a chance her son had inherited them.
Kang Zhengbang was losing his mind. “You’re telling me this is the long-lost Divine Needle of the Nine Suns? Impossible!”
But now he saw it too. Ye Cang’s seemingly random acupuncture actually had structure. The longer one watched, the more immersive it became.
“Ah, I haven’t touched the Divine Needle in three years. I’m exhausted after just the second needle…” Inside the operating room, Ye Cang sighed, “My mother is better—she’s already mastered the seventh needle.”
That’s right. Everything he knew about medicine—especially the Divine Needle of the Nine Suns—was taught by his mother, whose origins were mysterious. The Ye Family would eventually regret abandoning her.
“What are you standing there for? Wipe my sweat.” Ye Cang glanced at Gu Yuyao, still frozen in place, and ordered.
“You…” Gu Yuyao felt utterly humiliated.
Ye Cang had always cared for her, but now she was the one serving him. And the only purpose she had in that room… was to wipe sweat.
“I thought you said you could save Qin Caishen? Why isn’t he awake yet?” she snapped.
“Why so anxious? He’ll wake up now.”
With that, Ye Cang placed the final needle.
“COUGH COUGH…”
At once, Qin Donglei began coughing and woke up.
“This…” Gu Yuyao stood stunned. He actually woke up?
Was this just coincidence?
“He’s awake! He’s really awake!”
“Incredible!”
“…”
Outside the operating room, Gu Zhenghong and the others were cheering and crying with joy.
“A miracle! We just witnessed a medical miracle!”
The news reached Empire Yunding at once.
Empire Yunding, 108 stories tall, built entirely by Qin Caishen, was a commercial behemoth. Each floor covered a different business sector—like an aircraft carrier of commerce.
Qin Caishen’s fame came from it. But few knew the truth: Empire Yunding wasn’t built by him, but by his daughter. Due to certain circumstances, she had kept a low profile, and her father Qin Donglei took her place.
At that moment, in the private quarters on the top floor of Yunding, the air was filled with the scent of incense and sandalwood. Soft music mingled with the sound of running water.
Amid this misty atmosphere, a stunningly graceful woman was half-submerged in the water, her alluring figure faintly visible beneath the surface.
“Miss, Mr. Qin has woken up!” A secretary-like woman rushed in, reporting excitedly.
“Splaaash!” The woman stood up from the pool, sending water splashing everywhere.
