Chapter 16 Belittlement

  • "What are you doing, Lingxuan?"
  • Zhou Haowen's face darkened.
  • His daughter was pulling and tugging with a stranger in front of so many people, which made him lose face.
  • "Dad, this is the Chinese medicine doctor I invited to treat Grandpa. His name is Qin Sheng!"
  • Zhou Lingxuan explained.
  • As soon as she finished speaking, all eyes fell on Qin Sheng.
  • In the past, the Zhou family had invited some famous Chinese medicine experts to treat their grandfather, but they were all renowned elderly doctors who were well-known far and wide.
  • The young man in front of them, however, was in his twenties and dressed casually. He didn't look like a famous doctor at all.
  • "He's probably here for the red envelope."
  • The crowd quickly made a judgment after taking a glance at Qin Sheng.
  • Upon hearing this, Zhou Haowen furrowed his brows even more.
  • This young man looked about the same age as his daughter, and he didn't even know if he had graduated from college.
  • "Lingxuan, stop fooling around."
  • "We have many famous doctors here, and Lin Lao is also present. We don't need anyone else."
  • Zhou Haowen spoke frankly, as he had no intention of letting Qin Sheng participate in the treatment. He planned to give him a red envelope and send him away.
  • "Dad, Mr. Qin is truly a famous doctor. I saw him bring someone back from the brink of death with my own eyes!" Zhou Lingxuan pleaded urgently.
  • However, her words only made the crowd shake their heads and confirm that Qin Sheng was a fraud.
  • "Bringing someone back from the brink of death? What a joke."
  • "I can't even regrow my bones."
  • "How could the intelligent and renowned Miss Zhou be deceived by a swindler?"
  • "Lingxuan, if you keep fooling around, I'll lock you up!" Zhou Haowen angrily threatened, turning to his subordinates to order them to drive Qin Sheng away.
  • "Haha, bringing someone back from the brink of death."
  • "Lingxuan, you're too naive to be deceived by such a low-level swindler."
  • With laughter, a young man in designer clothes walked in.
  • "Uncle Wen." The young man greeted Zhou Haowen.
  • "Ah, Jian Sheng is here." Zhou Haowen nodded.
  • The young man was Qian Jian Sheng from the Qian family, the chosen candidate for his son-in-law.
  • "Uncle Wen, let me introduce you."
  • "This is Dr. Matthew Tao, a renowned Western doctor I specifically invited from the United States."
  • Only then did everyone notice a middle-aged doctor with well-groomed hair standing at the door of the ward. He was followed by two assistants, carrying various medical instruments.
  • "Dr. Matthew Tao is highly skilled and has treated many celebrities in the United States. He is a renowned expert in internal medicine in Europe and America and an honorary doctor at Oxford University. I put a lot of effort into inviting him to come to China."
  • "I believe he can definitely cure Grandpa's illness." Qian Jian Sheng said confidently.
  • Upon hearing the doctor's impressive background, Zhou Haowen hurriedly stepped forward, "Dr. Tao, I appreciate your help."
  • "As long as you can save Grandpa, you can fill in any amount on this blank check!"
  • He took out a blank check as he spoke.
  • Zhou Haowen was desperate and willing to try anything. His grandfather was the pillar of the Zhou family and couldn't be lost.
  • Dr. Tao glanced at the blank check, and his eyes involuntarily widened for a moment. But he quickly regained his composure and nodded casually, "I came all the way back to China not for money, but out of compassion as a doctor. Besides, I also considered Jian Sheng's face."
  • As he spoke, Qian Jian Sheng became even more proud, constantly glancing at Zhou Lingxuan. However, she clearly had no interest in him.
  • "Yes, yes, Dr. Tao is compassionate. I greatly admire you." Zhou Haowen nodded.
  • "Alright, before I start the treatment, please clear the room."
  • "We don't need any other doctors with me here."
  • "Especially those traditional Chinese medicine doctors who deceive people with useless herbs and tree bark." Dr. Tao said indifferently.
  • "You!" Lin Lao and several other Chinese medicine doctors present changed their expressions.
  • Dr. Tao looked up at the sky, as if saying that if they didn't clear the room, he wouldn't take action.
  • "This... Lin Lao."
  • "Could you please leave."
  • Zhou Haowen pleaded in a low voice.
  • "Hmph!"
  • Lin Lao snorted coldly and stood up, leaving the ward. Others followed suit and left.
  • "Chinese medicine uses these useless needles to poke people. It's ridiculous and goes against humanity."
  • "Remove all these needles."
  • Qin Sheng, who was at the back, followed everyone out, but when he saw Dr. Tao about to remove the silver needles, he instinctively spoke up to stop him.
