Chapter 26 - The Arrogant Youth
Opening Chapter 26 of "Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor": âMiss Su has a brain tumor, an illness that can be fatal at any moment,... Read on for more!
âMiss Su has a brain tumor, an illness that can be fatal at any moment, not a minor one like cold or fever.How could it possibly be cured by mere acupuncture and some herbal medicine?
This is a joke, a huge joke!â
The head of Zhongzhou First Peopleâs Hospital, Fu Hongjun, was the first to express his opposition.
âI agree with Vice Dean Fu!â
Another domestic authority on tumors also spoke up, his tone filled with disdain and contempt for traditional Chinese medicine.
âIn recent years, traditional Chinese medicine has been ridiculously hyped by some ignorant people as if it could cure all diseases, even bringing the dead back to life.
Countless facts have proven that traditional Chinese medicine only has some effect in treating minor ailments.
For treating difficult and complex diseases as well as serious illnesses, Western medicine is fast and effective, irreplaceable!
To say that traditional Chinese medicine can cure tumors?
Thatâs just plucking at random strings!
Nonsense!
Itâs an insult to medicine!â
âI used to hear that Chinese medicine was miraculous, and I had even visited some traditional Chinese medicine hospitals in Huaxia to learn, but the results were very disappointing.
Itâs not that I want to intentionally belittle Huaxiaâs traditional Chinese medicine, but I really do think itâs useless.â
The speaker this time was a medical expert from abroad who had made significant contributions in the field of oncology.
As a Huaxian, Su Hongyuan had a somewhat blind belief in traditional Chinese medicine and wanted Fang Bai to try its treatments.
However, after hearing what these authoritative experts in the medical field had to say, he started to hesitate.
âYou say traditional Chinese medicine canât do this or that, then why donât you go ahead and treat my sister!â
Su Yifei snorted, his eyes flashing coldly as he pointed at those so-called authority experts and said, âIf any of you can guarantee to cure my sister, I, Su Yifei, will kneel and kowtow to you on the spot, Iâd even give you my life!
Do you dare to guarantee it?
Do you?
Do you?
Do you?â
He asked âDo you dare?â three times in a row, rendering the several medical authorities at the scene speechless.
It was a jokeâmalignant brain tumors were not ordinary diseases, and who in the world, no matter how skilled a doctor, would dare to guarantee a 100% cure rate?
âNone of you dare, right?â
Su Yifei sneered, âThen please all of you shut your mouths and stop dismissing traditional Chinese medicine!
I brought Fang Bai because he promised the chances of curing Linglong were higher than the chances of your surgery.
And even if he canât cure her, it wonât lead to a worse situation.â
He turned around and said to Su Hongyuan, âGrandpa, since we have a better option, why not give it a try?
What if Fang Bai manages to cure Linglong; wouldnât that be better?â
Hope was kindled in Sun Binglanâs heart as well, wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes and saying, âYes, Elder, once Linglong gets on the operating table, sheâs stepping into the Ghost Gate.
Better to let the young man try his traditional Chinese medicine methodsâŚ
If it really doesnât work, we can still do the surgery later, right?â
With his wife speaking up, Sun Licheng also had to give his opinion, murmuring, âItâs worth a tryâŚ
worth a tryâŚâ
âFang Bai, how did you initially determine that Linglong was ill?â
As someone who had been through countless storms, Su Hongyuan was not impulsive because of anyoneâs words.
He looked calmly at Fang Bai and asked softly.
Fang Bai said, âBy observing the facial features, discerning the complexion, diagnosing the pulse and then deducing based on experience.â
âThat simple?â
âItâs not simple at all!â
Fang Bai spoke earnestly and with dignity, âOur family is a lineage of traditional Chinese medicine, with knowledge passed down for generations, amassing rich experience.
And through self-study, my medical skills have surpassed even my forebearsâŚ
Not to boast, but in this world, if I claim my medical skill is second to none, no one would dare claim to be first!â
The head of Zhongzhou First Hospital, Fu Hongjun, huffed, âYoung man, you should be humble.
Donât be too arrogant!â
Fang Bai scanned the faces of the doctors in the consultation room with a grin, âThis isnât arrogance; this is confidence!â
Fu Hongjun was also of Western medicine background and part of the Returned Chinese who had always looked down upon traditional Chinese medicine.
Disdainfully he said, âI heard you once diagnosed Miss Suâs illness?
Can you see if thereâs something wrong with me?
Can you diagnose everyone in this room?â
âYou?â Fang Bai sized up Fu Hongjun from head to toe, âVice Dean Fu, may I feel your pulse?â
Fu Hongjun nodded and strode over to Fang Bai, extending his left hand.
Fang Bai touched his wrist for a moment before withdrawing his hand with a smile, âVice Dean Fu, youâve got a serious problem.â
Fu Hongjun burst into laughter, âI knew it, practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine are all charlatans.
Let me tell you, young man, I just had a comprehensive health check a few days ago, everythingâs normal!â
Fang Bai laughed as well, âYou think a health check can reveal all problems?
Iâll give you four words: âTake care of your kidneys!â
The smile on Fu Hongjunâs face froze, âWhatâŚ
what do you mean?â
Fang Bai said with a smile, âTo put it plainly, you have too many women, and too frequent bedroom activities have damaged your kidneys.
If you donât restrain yourself, the second half of your life might be ruined.â
Fu Hongjunâs face turned ashen as he stared at Fang Bai, mouth agape, but, unexpectedly, he didnât retort.
A few days prior, Fu Hongjun indeed underwent a health screening, and the results were not as ânormalâ as he claimedâthey revealed a slight issue with his kidneys.
As the director of Zhongzhou First Peopleâs Hospital, over the years Fu Hongjun had wielded the carrot of promotions and salary increases, maintaining ambiguous relationships with numerous attractive doctors and nurses through intimidation and temptation; his excessive âhard workâ had ultimately taken a toll on his âkidney health.â
The results of Fu Hongjunâs health screening were known only to a very few, all of them his confidants, who wouldnât dare leak such information.
âYouâre talking nonsense; I donât have any women other than my wife at home.
My kidneys are fine, thereâs nothing wrong with themâŚ
Haha, youâre disappointed, arenât you? ÉŞę° Ęá´á´ á´Ąá´É´á´ á´á´ Ęá´á´á´ á´á´Ęá´ á´Ęá´á´á´á´Ęs, á´Ęá´á´sá´ á´ ÉŞsÉŞá´ É´ovel(ę°)ÉŞre.ná´t
HahaâŚâ
Fu Hongjun forced a laugh as he loudly defended himself, but his expression a moment ago had deeply betrayed him, and it was obvious to everyone that he felt guilty.
Just then, a gorgeous nurse in her thirties walked in with a stack of documents, handing them to Fu Hongjun.
While no one was paying attention, she stealthily threw a flirtatious glance at Fu Hongjun.
Fu Hongjun quickly glanced at the nurseâs voluptuous chest, then cleared his throat and waved her out with a gesture.
Just as the beautiful nurse was about to turn and leave, Fang Bai pointed at her and said to Fu Hongjun, âAbout an hour ago, this nurse ârolled in the sheetsâ with youâŚ
Vice Dean Fu, am I right?â
Upon hearing this, both Fu Hongjun and the nurse froze, their faces immediately turning red.
âHow did you know?â
The nurse stared at Fang Bai, dumbfounded, before exclaiming, âOh no, it must have been because Vice Dean Fu was in such a hurry that he didnât close the door of the office properly and you saw it!â
âYouâŚ
shut up!
Get outâŚ
get out of here!â
Fu Hongjun roared furiously, his face livid and unspeakably ugly.
The beautiful nurse pouted in grievance, casting a resentful glance at Fu Hongjun before hurrying out with her face covered, unable to hide her shame under the peculiar stares of everyone present.
