Chapter 438 - Nobody But Me Can Handle It

The old man had been standing in front of the hospital bed, lost in somber thoughts, when suddenly he was shocked by Chen Yang’s words.

“Mr.

Chen, what do you mean by that?

Don’t tell me you can cure her?” the old man asked, astonished.

“Yes, I can treat this disease.”

Chen Yang nodded expressionlessly.

“How… how is that possible… ALS has stumped dozens of experts in the province, can you really cure it?”

The old man’s eyes widened, his expression one of excitement.

But Chen Yang remained impassive, with no change in his demeanor.

“Just because the experts in the province can’t treat it doesn’t mean no one can.

Although ALS is troublesome, it’s not incurable.

With the gentle therapies of traditional medicine, there is still hope for a cure,” Chen Yang said calmly, yet very seriously.

There wasn’t a hint of jest in his tone.

The old man stared blankly at Chen Yang, hope reigniting in his heart.

Just as he was excitedly about to ask how he would treat it,

A disdainful snort suddenly came from the entrance of the hospital room.

“What a joke!

What era is it to still have Magicians daring to scam in hospitals?

Aren’t they afraid of ending up in prison?”

A voice suddenly spoke from behind; Chen Yang and the old man turned around at the same time.

Standing at the door was a doctor in a white coat, followed by a crowd of nurses.

The disdainful snort had come from that leading doctor.

“Doctor Liao!”

Seeing the doctor, the old man instinctively called out.

Doctor Liao grunted, then turned to Chen Yang and scolded, “This is a hospital, not a place for you swindlers!

Get out!”

Doctor Liao was extremely angry, showing Chen Yang no cordiality from the moment he arrived.

Although he was wearing a mask and his face wasn’t clear, Chen Yang could still tell.

Under the mask was definitely a face full of disdain.

“Doctor Liao, you’re mistaken, he’s not a scammer—he’s a friend of mine, he just came with me to take a look today,” the old man hurriedly explained with an apologetic smile, making it clear Chen Yang wasn’t an outsider.

Hearing this, Doctor Liao’s brows relaxed slightly, but the change wasn’t significant.

“I understand your anxiety over the lack of any significant results despite such a long treatment in our hospital, but I hope you keep your wits about you,”

“Don’t seek help from doctors haphazardly in anxiety, and don’t bring in every Itinerant Doctor claiming to be a miracle worker to treat her, otherwise, if anything goes wrong, our hospital won’t take responsibility,” Doctor Liao said with biting sarcasm, as if Chen Yang had offended him.

This made Chen Yang extremely annoyed.

“Who are you calling an Itinerant Doctor?

Even just coming to take a look at my friend is not allowed?

Does your hospital manage things that strictly?” Chen Yang retorted angrily, without politeness.

“You…”

Doctor Liao hadn’t expected Chen Yang to talk back to him like that and immediately became furious.

But just as he was about to blow up, the old man stepped in to smooth things over.

“Doctor Liao, don’t be too agitated.

My friend means well; he just came to pay my spouse a visit.

It’s nothing more,” the old man explained.

“Just here to take a simple look?”

Doctor Liao snorted coldly, “I hardly think that’s all it is.

Some dare to boast that they’re better than all the doctors in the province, is it merely to have a look?”

Doctor Liao spoke in a sarcastic tone, ostensibly addressing the old man.

But the mockery was clearly directed at Chen Yang.

At that moment, Chen Yang also realized why Doctor Liao had such an attitude towards him.

It was because of what he had said that made Doctor Liao displeased.

“Heh, you’re not wrong.

I didn’t come just to look, I came to treat!

And I can make the patient fully recover,” Chen Yang confidently said with a smile.

The cold smile on Doctor Liao’s face instantly froze.

After being stiff for a few seconds, he suddenly burst into loud laughter.

“Hahaha, still so tough-mouthed when accused of being a swindler?

You, cure this patient’s illness?”

Doctor Liao pointed at the patient, Little Cui’s mother, his face full of mockery.

“Of course, otherwise do you think I’m here joking with you?”

Chen Yang said firmly.

“Hahaha.” Dr.

Liao laughed unrestrainedly again, with a mocking look on his face as he glanced at Chen Yang, but didn’t say anything.

Instead, he turned his gaze playfully to the old man.

“After the treatment over this period of time, the expert team from the province had already made some progress.

We were planning to implement the treatment in a few days, but now that you’ve invited someone over, let him treat first.

When you recognize the true face of this charlatan, we can step in at any time.”

Dr.

Liao seemed very confident, and after saying these words, he turned and left with the nurses following him.

The old man became anxious upon hearing this.

He hurriedly tried to catch up to speak kindly, but Chen Yang grabbed him.

“Old man, don’t bother with him.

All that talk about progress is just to deceive people.

I’m afraid no one but me can treat your partner’s ALS.”

Chen Yang said.

Hearing this, the old man’s face was filled with speechlessness.

He didn’t know where Chen Yang got such confidence!

His partner was a typical case of ALS, which, from a certain perspective, was incurable!

How could he be so sure of a cure just by looking?

“Mr.

Chen, you aren’t joking with me at a time like this, are you?”

The old man said incredulously.

“Hehe, do I look like I’m joking with you?” Chen Yang said with a slight smile, then turned to check on Little Cui’s mother’s condition.

While checking her body with his hands, he continued to say, “I know, you don’t believe I can do it because I’m young, but I can really cure her.

If you don’t believe me, just watch closely, alright?”

“Anyway, if I can’t do it, it’s not too late to find those so-called experts.”

After saying that, Chen Yang grabbed Little Cui’s mother’s arm and closed his eyes in earnest to probe her pulse.

“Mr.

Chen, this…”

The old man still wanted to say something, but then he thought that what Chen Yang said was also true.

Anyway, if it didn’t work out, he could just go back to the expert team.

After all, he had already paid, and the expert team wouldn’t abandon an effective treatment method because of Chen Yang.

And looking at the certainty on Chen Yang’s face, it didn’t seem like a joke, so he might as well let Chen Yang try.

Maybe it could really work.

With these thoughts in mind, the old man didn’t say anything more but just stood quietly by the side, waiting for Chen Yang to open his eyes.

Five minutes later, Chen Yang let go of Little Cui’s mother’s arm and opened his eyes.

“How is it, Mr.

Chen?

What’s the situation approximately?”

The old man asked eagerly.

Chen Yang stood up and replied, “The situation is pretty bad, but it’s not beyond treatment.

It’s just a little more troublesome than usual methods.

Give me two days, and I’ll come back to treat her in two days.

I’m sure I can handle it.”

“Mm-hmm, good.”

The old man nodded upon hearing this and didn’t say anything further.

Afterward, the two stayed in the hospital a little longer before they left the ward together.

Walking through the hospital corridors, they occasionally encountered some nurses.

But the nurses all looked at Chen Yang strangely, as if they were not very fond of him.

Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately knew that the incident with Dr.

Liao must have spread throughout the floor.

Otherwise, he wasn’t ugly, so why were their gazes so odd?

However, Chen Yang just smiled indifferently and didn’t take it to heart.

Mockery?

Contempt?

Just wait, there will be clarity in two days.

Exiting the hospital’s main entrance, the two got into a van and drove straight to the late-night snack shop.

It was the peak business time for the snack shop at this hour, and even though the old man was in very bad spirits,

he had to hurry back to look after the shop.

Little Cui alone surely couldn’t cope with the busyness.
