Chapter 252 - 252 251 The Miracle of Life Second Update

252: Chapter 251: The Miracle of Life [Second Update] 252: Chapter 251: The Miracle of Life [Second Update] Li Chen shook his head with a smile and said, “I wasn’t laughing at anything in particular, just remembered a joke that I found amusing, please carry on, carry on!”

Yao Wei’s expression darkened as he asked, “What joke?”

Li Chen shrugged and said, “Since you guys want to know, I’ll share it with you, I guarantee it’s hilarious!”

After saying that, he cleared his throat and started telling the joke with a straight face.

“Two cows were grazing, then a person came over, the bull said ‘Run quick!’, the cow asked ‘Why?’.

The bull said ‘That’s an expert, he loves to spout nonsense.'”

“After hearing it, the cow tightened its legs and bolted.

Seeing this, the bull also ran after her.

The cow asked why he was running too, and the bull said ‘He’s not just full of hot air, but also likes to ramble, how can I not run?'”

When the joke ended, Li Chen started to laugh heartily by himself.

However, after laughing for a while, he noticed that Yao Wei, Su Ya, and the rest were all wearing a look of livid anger.

Especially Yao Wei, there was even a flame of rage in his eyes.

“How vulgar.

Who are you, and how did you get in?” A man dressed in an ostentatious fashion pointed at Li Chen’s nose and barked the question.

“Look at his cheap clothes, dressed like a manual laborer, he couldn’t possibly be here just to scrounge some food and drink, could he?” A woman in an elegant gown also frowned and chimed in.

“Miss Su Ya, this is the most prestigious medical exchange conference in Jiangnan, how can we allow such lower-class people to get in.

Better to have security kick him out to avoid spoiling everyone’s mood!”

Su Ya, who had received an education from English nobility, furrowed her brow slightly, restraining the distaste in her heart, and interrogated Li Chen with a stern face: “Do you have an invitation?”

“Miss Su Ya, look at him—his entire outfit doesn’t look worth more than five hundred.

How could he possibly have an invitation?”

“Exactly, this is a high-class gathering, not something any Tom, Dick or Harry can attend.

Just have security throw him out directly!”

As soon as these words were spoken, without waiting for Su Ya to respond, a wealthy scion eager to show off shouted towards the door: “Security!

What kind of job are you doing letting just anyone in?

Get him out of here right now…”

Before he could fully articulate the word “now,” Li Chen pulled out an invitation and smacked it hard onto that man’s piggish face.

“What kind of person are you, hitting someone like that?” The scion covered his face and shouted a torrent of curses at Li Chen.

“Indeed, such low class.

You won’t leave here today without giving us an explanation!”

Li Chen scanned them with a glance and sneered coldly: “Haha, you invited me here and now you want security to kick me out, and then you ask about my qualities, don’t you find that funny?”

“Are you crazy?

When did we invite you?”

“That’s right, just look at where you are.

Is this a place for lowly laborers like you?”

…

While this group of nobility was berating Li Chen, the British girl with blonde hair and blue eyes called Alice gasped in surprise as she saw the name on the invitation.

“Yikes, isn’t he Li Chen, the inventor of Life Spirit Liquid?”

Upon hearing the name Li Chen, everyone present was startled.

Su Ya sized Li Chen up once more, with disbelief written all over her face.

“You are Li Chen, the inventor of Life Spirit Liquid?”

Li Chen nodded and said, “What, is there an issue?”

“There certainly is, and the problem is not a small one!”

The responder was Yao Wei, who looked at Li Chen with evident hostility.

His resentful expression was as if the other man had just slept with his girlfriend, and to top it off, hadn’t taken any safety precautions.

After saying that, he went to the podium and cleared his throat forcefully into the microphone.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the experimental report that my mentor and I conducted in the laboratory at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The experiment shows that this so-called Life Spirit Liquid has only two molecular components: hydrogen and oxygen.

In other words, it is not some kind of Divine Medicine that can cure all diseases.

It’s just ordinary distilled water!”

Upon hearing Yao Wei’s words, there was an uproar in the audience.

Everyone’s gaze towards Li Chen was filled with scorn, as if he were a crowned monkey, a great swindler.

Yao Wei looked at Li Chen with an aggressive challenge: “Mr.

Li, do you have anything to explain?”

Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, “No, you’re right, this Life Spirit Liquid indeed contains only hydrogen and oxygen molecules!”

Hearing Li Chen’s words, everyone present was taken aback.

Especially Yao Wei, who had prepared a lot of arguments to confront Li Chen’s Life Spirit Liquid.

But he had never expected that with just a few words, Li Chen would admit it.

It felt like a heavy punch hitting cotton.

Not only was there no sense of accomplishment, but also a feeling of frustration.

“Hmph, Li Chen, in order to make a huge profit, you use fake medicine to deceive hospitals and patients.

How can you do such heinous acts?

I feel saddened for you!”

Others also echoed one after another, attacking Li Chen verbally and with pen, as if they intended to drown him with their saliva.

Li Chen just shook his head, with a sneer on his face.

Seeing that Li Chen could still smile, Yao Wei’s face turned gloomy and he demanded, “It’s come to this, and you can still smile?”

Li Chen, not showing weakness, retorted sarcastically: “You’re jumping around on stage like a buffoon; I find it amusing.

Why can’t I laugh?”

Hearing Li Chen’s insult, Yao Wei couldn’t help but fly into a rage: “You dare to call me a buffoon?”

Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and casually asked back, “Aren’t you?”

“Just because the Life Spirit Liquid only contains hydrogen and oxygen elements, you cannot deny its miraculous effects, right?”

Yao Wei laughed in anger and said, “Haha, distilled water also contains hydrogen and oxygen.

If it truly had the divine effects that you claim, capable of curing all diseases, then I’m afraid the whole world would have no diseases at all.

There would be no need for hospitals, or even the field of medical science.

People would just need to drink water to be cured.”

“Li Chen, don’t you find this absurd and laughable?”

Before Yao Wei’s words were finished, a wave of laughter erupted from below.

“Ah, the summer insect cannot discuss ice.”

Li Chen sighed lightly and walked up to a withered rose.

He took out a small jade bottle and poured the Life Spirit Liquid on it.

Seeing this scene, Su Ya and others were all puzzled, wondering why Li Chen was pouring water on a withered rose.

Yao Wei demanded, “Li Chen, what do you mean by this?”

Li Chen smiled indifferently, “No particular meaning, just wanted to show you what a miracle looks like!”

“Haha, a miracle?

You think by pouring a bottle of water on a withered rose, it’s going to come back to life and bloom again?

This goes against natural science, it’s simply impossible…”

The word “impossible” had just left his mouth when Yao Wei’s expression completely froze on his face.

The previously withered rose suddenly regained vitality, and the bud bloomed visibly before the eyes, stunningly vivid and eclipsing all others in splendor.

In an instant, there was dead silence all around.

Everyone had their eyes wide open, their faces filled with disbelief, staring dumbfounded at this miracle of life.

Yao Wei, on the podium, almost had his eyeballs pop out in shock, his mouth wide open in exclamation.

“How, how is this possible?”
