Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Aggressive

"Wait a moment."

However, at this time, Li Chengze suddenly spoke up.

"What are you going to do?"

Lin Ruoxi’s attitude toward him had changed completely, and her tone became ice-cold.

She had previously respected Li Chengze very much, believing that his medical skills were superb and hoping that he could save her grandfather. But in the end, she found out that not only was Li Chengze’s medical ethics and character corrupt, but he had also blackmailed her, and even his medical skills were subpar.

In the end, it was only thanks to the half elixir given by Su Luo that her grandfather was saved.

"You’ve got it wrong, Old Master Lin’s awakening wasn’t due to some half elixir, but rather the cardio-pulmonary resuscitation I administered to Old Master Lin during the examination. I originally thought it had no effect, but now it seems that it was just delayed," Li Chengze said.

Upon hearing this, Wei Hongbo almost wanted to laugh: "Do you really believe what you’re saying, Li Chengze?"

Of course, Li Chengze didn’t believe it.

After all, he was just making it up as he went along.

But whether he believed it or not wasn’t important.

Whether Wei Hongbo believed it or not wasn’t important either.

As long as the Lin family members believed him, that was all that mattered.

"If any of you have checked my resume, you would know that two years ago, I published an article on the use of modern medical massage techniques for cardio-pulmonary resuscitation in the prestigious medical journal "The Lancet". When I previously examined Old Master Lin, I used this technique to perform cardio-pulmonary resuscitation on him. Originally, I thought it had no effect, but now it seems that the effect was merely delayed. It just so happened to coincide with them feeding half an elixir, causing confusion, making you think it was the elixir that worked. In fact, that’s not the case," Li Chengze said convincingly.

"How can there be such a shameless person in the world?" Wei Hongbo was infuriated by these words.

He and Su Luo had discussed on the way here, and Wei Hongbo had confirmed that the elixir was effective for treating heart conditions, which was why he dared to let Lin Songbai ingest it.

But now, Li Chengze was trying to take credit for himself?

"Do you think just because Su Luo isn’t here, you can steal his credit?" Wei Hongbo said angrily.

"That is exactly the case," Li Chengze sneered. "On the contrary, are you trying to steal my credit with just half a broken elixir?"

At this moment, everyone from the Lin family was stunned.

They were not medical professionals and didn’t understand these issues, so they were unable to determine whether what Li Chengze said was true or false for the time being.

"I believe in Elder Wei."

Lin Songbai said firmly at this point.

Elder Wei was a revered traditional Chinese medicine expert in Jiangbei with a high reputation; Lin Songbai had a good relationship with him and naturally wouldn’t lie.

However, Li Chengze went on to say: "Old Master Lin, you were unconscious before and unaware of the situation. Let me ask two questions: If this traditional Chinese doctor, as well as that young doctor who was driven away, truly had the means to treat you, would they have waited until now, until your condition was so serious? And, what kind of elixir, let alone half an elixir, starts working immediately after ingestion? No matter how good the effect of a medication is, or how instantly it acts, it doesn’t take just a few seconds to work, does it?"

Following these words, there was silence all around.

They didn’t know about medicine, but they had to admit, Li Chengze’s words seemed to make some sense.

They had never seen any medicine that could take effect just a few seconds after ingestion.

In this light, what Li Chengze said about the massage and cardio-pulmonary resuscitation treatment for Old Master Lin having a delayed effect seemed more reasonable.

"Doctor Wei, right? If a mere half of your elixir can have such miraculous effects, the instantaneous kind at that, it should have caused a sensation in the medical community by now, and you should have become a world-renowned physician known both domestically and internationally for solving heart problems. So, may I ask why no one has ever heard of this elixir? Outside of Jiangbei, who knows your name?"

Li Chengze spoke somberly.

"Traditional Chinese medicine prefers to keep a low profile. Many life-saving prescriptions are about inheritance and are naturally not spread widely," Wei Hongbo huffed coldly.

"If that’s the case, tell us, how is the elixir made? What are the ingredients in its formula? Let us see if it really can cure heart problems," Li Chengze pressed aggressively.

Wei Hongbo was at a loss for words.

The elixir belonged to Su Luo. He truly didn’t know how Su Luo had concocted it.

With an elixir this potent, the alchemy formula would be worth its weight in gold, and he hadn’t rashly inquired about it from Su Luo, so naturally, he was clueless.

Now, faced with Li Chengze’s pressing questions, even Wei Hongbo couldn’t come up with an answer.

"Look, this is your so-called Divine Doctor, reputed to be the holy hand of traditional Chinese medicine in Jiangbei. Yet when asked, he knows nothing; he’s clearly deceiving you all."

"I now have reason to suspect he is a major fraud, and the man who Miss Lin has already thrown out is a minor one. They are in cahoots, trying to swindle money!"

Li Chengze suddenly pointed at Wei Hongbo, sneering.

Upon these words, everyone’s expression changed.

That wasn’t possible, was it?

Elder Wei was Jiangbei’s Divine Doctor, highly respected and skilled in medicine, closely connected to their Lin Family. How could he be deceiving people?

Lin Ruoxi also found it improbable.

One could question Grandpa Wei’s medical skills, but not his character.

"Grandpa Wei isn’t that kind of person."

Lin Ruoxi wanted to defend Grandpa Wei, but realizing that the discussion involved medical expertise, she found herself at a loss for words to argue and could only emphasize her point forcefully.

"This elixir was concocted by Su Luo. I truly do not know its mystery," Wei Hongbo admitted helplessly.

Hearing this, Li Chengze’s excitement grew.

Everything was within his control.

"Although I haven’t studied traditional Chinese medicine, I still have some understanding of it. To have even the slightest skill in it requires years of experience. You, claiming to be the Divine Doctor of Jiangbei, are at a loss. What could a young man studying Chinese medicine possibly achieve?"

"Doctor Wei, now you’re passing the buck to someone named Su Luo, cleaning yourself of the matter quite thoroughly, aren’t you?"

"Your medical skills may not amount to much, but you sure are clever," Li Chengze continued.

These words made Wei Hongbo furious.

Yet, having spent years engrossed in medical studies and not being adept at verbal disputes, he was so enraged by Li Chengze’s aggressive approach that at that moment, he found himself speechless with anger.

However, at that moment, a voice came from outside the hospital room.

"Don’t you want to know how the elixir is concocted? I’ll tell you."

As the voice filled the air, a figure stepped in.
