Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Any Doctor Can Do It
"Hello, Dr. Craw," Dr. Wood greeted her as Johann did.
"Hello. We're about to start. Family members, please wait outside." Luca's tone was cold. Unlike other doctors, she took no
notice of the feelings of patients and their family members.
Mrs. Hugh stood up and walked outside the ward.
Keith wanted to stay but was pulled away by Larry. "Come on. You being here will only affect the doctor's mood and the
treatment."
Nina glanced at Luca. She thought long needles as such were scary, so she left the ward as well.
Luca asked Johann, "Where are the medical gloves?"
"I'll get them for you." Johann turned around and grabbed two pairs of gloves from a cabinet by the door. One pair was for Luca,
while the other one was for Dr. Wood.
Dr. Wood looked at Luca's sterilized needles and asked, "Dr. Craw, are you going to use this set of needles to treat the patient?"
"Yes." Luca patted Tyrone who had his eyes closed and said, "Take off your clothes and lie down with your back facing us."
Tyrone opened his eyes and said as he slowly took off his hospital gown, "Doctor, please be gentle. I have a low tolerance
toward pain."
Luca smiled helplessly when she heard what he said. "If you're scared of pain, why did you get into a fight with someone in the
first place? Lie down. It won't hurt."
Tyrone's movements were slow. After he took off his gown, he slowly lay down.
Dr. Wood said, "These needles don't look like the needles I see outside."
"My needles are all made to order. When you treat him, you can just use ordinary needles." Luca liked to use these needles
because she has always used this set when she was learning and training. She was used to them. After she left the Island of
Despair, she was unwilling to make a swap.

"Okay," Dr. Wood said.
"I'll only demonstrate once. The next time, you'll do it with me at the side guiding you. Many of the spots where I'll insert the
needles are different from what you learned in medical school. You can record a video for later viewing," Luca said. If she had
the time, she would not let a doctor learn from her.
She did not like to teach others. She learned her skills from Shanks, and her knowledge was different from what was in
textbooks. Some people would use their medical knowledge to ask 100,000 whys and have her explain the tiniest things. She did
not have the patience for that.
"I'll record. You talk," Johann spoke from the side. He had a patient who was not in a critical situation but was about to go into the
operating room. However, he wanted to watch Luca treat Tyrone, so he postponed the operation for an hour.
He picked up his phone and found a spot that would not get in the way of Luca and Dr. Wood.
Luca started to insert the needles. She was worried that Dr. Wood could not figure out the locations, so she explained as she
was going through the processes.
She paid close attention to Tyrone throughout the treatment.
The whole process could be done in ten minutes, but it took her half an hour to insert the needles in the key acupoints.
Dr. Wood watched her take off her gloves and could not help but say with admiration, "This is different from what I studied in
medical school. Dr. Park, did you record it? I'll have to watch it several times."
"It's recorded. Don't worry. I'll send it to you later." Johann was also amazed at Luca's dry needling method. After he saved the
video, he wanted to ask her where she learned it from.
However, considering Luca's identity, he knew that she would not say anything, so he dismissed the thought.
Luca stood by the bed, looked at Tyrone, and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere in your body?"
Tyrone did not dare to move due to her previous warning, so he could only answer slowly in a muffled voice, "I feel some
muscles on my back... They're throbbing..."
"Does it hurt?" Luca asked. Her dry needling was not electro-acupuncture but direct dry needling, which stimulated the blood
flow of the acupoints and dredged the meridians to achieve therapeutic effects.

"It doesn't hurt. It's quite comfortable," Tyrone said with his eyes closed. He did not feel any pain during the entire session.
"Okay, give it 15 minutes." Luca nodded. She looked at Johann, who was looking at her.
"Dr. Craw, you're amazing." Johann could not help but praise her. He felt amazed every time he watched Luca perform dry-
needling.
"It's not that I'm good. It's the techniques handed down from our ancestors that are impressive," Luca said in a neutral tone.
Shanks learned dry needling from an old man in the deep mountains of Province S when he was young.
Therefore, these were all knowledge left by the ancestors.
Dr. Wood listened to Luca's words and hesitated. He wanted to say that this was different from traditional dry needling. However,
Johann had warned him that all he had to do was learn how to perform dry needling and keep his mouth shut for anything else.
As such, even though he had questions, he opted to keep his mouth shut.
15 minutes later, Luca pulled out the needles. It was easier to pull out the needles than to prick them. It took her about ten
seconds to pull out all the needles inserted into Tyrone's body.
She said, "It's done. Get up."
When he heard that, Tyrone got up. He was taken back when he saw the used needles that Luca had put on the side, "Uh. You
put all of that in me?"
He wondered if his back and skull looked like a hornet's nest.
"It's not that many." Luca carefully wrapped the used needles and threw them into the medical waste trash can. "The family can
come in now."
Dr. Wood nodded and walked to the door.
Mrs. Hugh had been worried sick about Tyrone. She was the first who walked in. She asked with concern, "Tyrone, how do you
feel Does it hurt? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Tyrone shook his head slowly, his response still very slow. "It doesn't hurt. On the contrary, I feel a little more comfortable."

Keith sneered when he saw how Tyrone was. "What does being comfortable do?! Tyrone, you need proper treatment. Being
comfortable can't cure you. Some are good at boasting but don't have the capabilities to match!”
Luca ignored his harsh words. She looked at Tyrone and said, "Tyrone, try and smile."
"I still have to smile?" That was the first time he smiled since he was hospitalized, but everyone had looked at him weirdly. He did
not want to smile in front of them again.
"Smile," Luca said forcefully.
Tyrone had to try to squeeze a smile.
Nina kept looking and noticed that Tyrone's smile was not as distorted. Although it was still weird, it was clear that he was doing
much better than before. A trace of a smile could be seen!
"That's impressive!" she said.
Luca said to everyone, “He'll get better with treatment. His face is the most serious in terms of damage, so the effectiveness of
the treatment will be most obvious there. It'll be noticeable even after one session. For the other issues, it's necessary to
continue with dry needling for them to improve."
"Okay, as long as he can get better." Mrs. Hugh had noticed her son's changes as well and was impressed by Luca.
She was glad that Tyrone did not shoo her off. Otherwise, they were unsure when he could be treated.
"What's so impressive about what she did? Isn't it just dry needling? Any doctor can do it!" Keith still refused to accept Luca.
