Chen Xiao showed no deference to Wu Jianzhong, the director of the Municipal First Hospital, his face contorted with disdain.
"Why not? Is it because of your deep-seated prejudice against Traditional Chinese Medicine? To be frank, you stubborn old fool are nothing but a frog in a well, blindly worshipping foreign things! Fortunately, I didn't apply to the Municipal First Hospital back then, or I would have been ashamed to be led by you!"
Wu Jianzhong was furious, his face turning from green to purple. His voice suddenly rose:
"Young man, you dare to speak such wild words. Aren't you afraid of your tongue getting twisted by the strong wind? Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you can prove to me that Traditional Chinese Medicine can miraculously cure severely injured car accident victims instantly, I'll even give you my position as director of the Municipal First Hospital!"
Chen Xiao replied without hesitation:
"Isn't your granddaughter's multiple fractures, critical brain concussion, and severe hemorrhage with normal vital signs the best proof? Not only that, but if she were to undergo another comprehensive examination, I dare guarantee that her injuries would have lessened by at least tenfold compared to the previous results! Of course, if you stubbornly insist that the previous examination results were a misdiagnosis, then it only proves that you are indeed a stubborn old fool who worships foreign things!"
"Chen Xiao, since you're still defiant even when facing death, I'll arrange another examination! If Wen Xinyi's injuries have truly lessened by at least tenfold compared to the previous results, I will personally eat feces in public when I come to work tomorrow morning!"
"Director Wu, Director Ye and I dare to stake our reputations on it. There is absolutely no misdiagnosis in your granddaughter's examination results. Otherwise, I will resign in disgrace!"
Although Ye Tongwei and Xiang Longfei couldn't understand why the cardiac monitor showed Wen Xinyi's vital signs as normal, they were very confident in their previous diagnoses and refused to believe that a misdiagnosis, as hypothesized by Wu Jianzhong, had occurred. They quickly scrambled to arrange doctors and nurses to perform various examinations such as B-ultrasound and CT scans on Wen Xinyi again.
Chen Xiao, feigning disinterest, yawned and said:
"Fine, fine. Since you're so eager to be proven wrong, go ahead and make a fuss. I'm going home to catch up on sleep. Once the results are out, you can step down if you're supposed to, eat feces if you're supposed to, and resign in disgrace if you're supposed to."
"Ah?"
Zhou Wannong's eyes were solely focused on saving lives. Seeing Chen Xiao turn to leave as he spoke, she was startled and instinctively reached out to grab his arm:
"Chen Xiao, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Longevity Needles you inserted in Wen Xinyi's chest have fewer needles than the ones in her head. Are they not all inserted yet?"
Chen Xiao glared at Kang Jiali:
"Wasn't it interrupted by that old hag? So, I estimate that although the patient's severe hemorrhage has been temporarily stopped, the blood stasis has not completely dissipated, and there's a risk of acute myocardial infarction at any time!"
"What? A risk of acute myocardial infarction at any time?"
Zhou Wannong's face turned pale again, and she said nervously:
"Then hurry up and insert the remaining needles!"
"Heh."
Chen Xiao glanced at Wu Jianzhong and Kang Jiali with a half-smile:
"Deputy Director Zhou, do you think the patient's family would allow me to continue acupuncture? In my opinion, we shouldn't be meddling busybodies..."
As expected, before Chen Xiao could finish speaking, Kang Jiali immediately cursed fiercely:
"Zhou Wannong, Chen Xiao, you have the nerve to conspire even at this point? Just wait. As soon as Ye Tongwei and Xiang Longfei's examination results are out, I will personally call the police. If I don't see you two thrown into prison for life, I, Kang Jiali, will not be human!"
Soon, the examination results came out, clearly showing that Wen Xinyi's injuries had indeed lessened by at least tenfold compared to the previous results. Her multiple comminuted fractures had become minor fractures, the critical brain concussion had become a mild concussion, and the severe hemorrhage had become moderate cardiac congestion.
"This... How is this possible?"
Ye Tongwei and Xiang Longfei were as shocked as if they had seen a ghost. At this moment, they had to believe that Chen Xiao's skills in Traditional Chinese Medicine were unimaginably profound. After all, the process of the two examinations was exactly the same, and they simply couldn't believe that the previous examination result was a misdiagnosis.
However, Wu Jianzhong was more willing to believe that the previous examination results were a misdiagnosis than to believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine. After all, he had not personally participated in the examination process. Thus, he couldn't help but mock Chen Xiao in a tone of assumed certainty:
"Dr. Chen, the reason you are so confident in your Traditional Chinese Medicine is definitely because you already knew that Ye Tongwei and Xiang Longfei misdiagnosed my Xin Yi's injuries, right? Based on this alone, I must admit that you are indeed very shrewd, but a doctor being merely shrewd is far from enough!"
After saying this, Wu Jianzhong immediately arranged for an ambulance to take Wen Xinyi back to the Municipal First Hospital.
Just a few days after the conflict between Chen Xiao and Wu Jianzhong began, Sun Manyue flew to the Municipal First Hospital for a lecture at Wu Jianzhong's invitation.
Sun Manyue, in order to secure Chen Xiao's treatment for her grandfather, proactively asked Wu Jianzhong to invite Chen Xiao to participate.
It was only then that Wu Jianzhong finally realized Chen Xiao's capabilities. His prejudice against Traditional Chinese Medicine instantly turned into reverence, and he then tried various ways to get Chen Xiao to serve as the director of the Municipal First Hospital.
On the other side, Jin Fang Pharmaceutical's first product, "Xumi Jiezi Cream," was also soon launched. Its explosive sales allowed the long-dormant Jin Fang Pharmaceutical to reappear in the domestic and international pharmaceutical industry. It became unstoppable, and in less than a year, it became a giant in the global pharmaceutical industry. Jiuding Pharmaceutical, under the Ye family, didn't even have the qualifications to carry Jin Fang Pharmaceutical's shoes.
As a result, the short-sighted and highly suspicious richest man in Juxian City, Song Kaichao, finally realized belatedly that Chen Xiao becoming his grandson-in-law was not Chen Xiao climbing up, but him being the one who had climbed up. Therefore, he began to do everything he could to facilitate the marriage between Chen Xiao and the Song sisters, Song Yan and Song Nuan.
Long Aotian, of course, was not idle either and had been assisting Chen Xiao and Zhou Wannong.
Meanwhile, Chen Xiao gradually unraveled the mystery of his own background, learning that his biological father was a great hero who saved the country and its people. The reason he had not appeared all these years was to protect the safety of all humanity, and the Wordless Golden Formula was a gift from his father.
...
Three years later, at the world's most luxurious maritime wedding ceremony, Chen Xiao, dressed as a groom, married Zhou Wannong, Song Yan, and Song Nuan, and thus embarked on the pinnacle of his life. The reputation of the Super Doctor King was thunderous and world-renowned.
