"Gu poison? Young man, have you been reading too many novels? There is no such absurd thing in our modern medical field."
"Young man, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, listening, questioning and palpation. Every diagnosis must be based on reason and evidence. You must never make a fuss about nothing."
An elderly traditional Chinese medicine doctor with gray hair slowly shook his head.
Faced with the doubts of the crowd, Lin Yang remained calm and explained in a composed manner.
"Gu poison is not a fictional thing; it is an ancient and mysterious poison technique."
"By putting various poisonous insects together to kill each other, the poisonous insect that survives is called Gu."
"This kind of Gu worm can be used to control others, or it can be used to harm people."
Lin Yang pointed out that other famous doctors only focus on the symptoms on the patient's skin and ignore the abnormality in the patient's mental state.
"This patient's symptoms are very similar to a type of Gu poison I encountered in Southeast Asia before."
“Most skin patients suffer from unbearable pain, but this patient is mentally agitated and out of control, which is one of the symptoms of the poison attack.”
Lin Yang elaborated on his point of view in an attempt to make it understandable to those present.
After a brief silence, a doctor who was also young but had some fame appeared disapproving.
"What era are we living in now? We diagnose illnesses based on medical knowledge and clinical experience. Superstitious beliefs like Gu poison are utterly absurd."
Other doctors echoed this sentiment, believing that Lin Yang's views were completely fabricated.
They then ignored him and continued their separate discussions, each adding to their own prescriptions.
Lin Yang looked at everyone's reactions with a sense of helplessness.
He carefully observed the patient's mental state, which further convinced him that his judgment was correct.
Seeing that they were about to prescribe medicine to treat the patient, he kindly spoke up to stop them.
"Please wait a moment. If we follow the conventional treatment methods for skin diseases and take large amounts of traditional Chinese medicine, it will not only fail to cure the condition, but will also stimulate the parasites in the body, causing the condition to worsen."
However, his words still went unnoticed by anyone.
After everyone finished writing the prescriptions, the hospital stated that they would treat the patient according to these plans and closely monitor any changes in the patient's condition.
Lin Yang was powerless to stop it all, but he didn't want to give up any chance to help the patient.
So he left his contact information and gave instructions to the hospital staff.
"If any problems arise during the patient's treatment, whether it is a worsening of the condition or other abnormalities, please be sure to contact me immediately."
The hospital staff didn't take Lin Yang's words to heart, but out of politeness, they still accepted his contact information.
Everyone returned to the hotel one after another. After a busy day of arguments, everyone looked a little tired.
Lin Yang called Wang Yuwei to let her know he was safe.
The two exchanged a few jokes on the phone, and then Wang Yuwei began to recount what had happened at home while Lin Yang was away.
“Honey, you were right. As soon as you left, my uncle said that we were short-handed at home and wanted Wang Xingjie to come back and continue working.”
Wang Yuwei was busy with the reconstruction project when her assistant suddenly came in to announce that Wang Xingjie had arrived.
I knew it wouldn't be anything good.
Wang Xingjie walked in with a shameless smile on his face.
"Yuwei, it's been a long time."
Wang Yuwei looked at him coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Wang Xingjie rubbed his hands together and said shamelessly.
"Look how smoothly the skyscraper reconstruction project is progressing. I also want to contribute to the family and make amends. Could you arrange a position for me in the project?"
Wang Yuwei sneered, "You still have the nerve to come back and ask for a position? You cut corners before, almost ruining the entire Wang Group. Have you forgotten?"
"That's all in the past, and I have deeply reflected on it."
"Besides, I am a member of the Wang family after all, and I have a share in this project."
Wang Yuwei refused without hesitation, saying, "Impossible. The losses you've caused are too great. This project cannot accommodate you."
Wang Xingjie's expression changed, and his tone became fierce.
"Wang Yuwei, the Wang Group isn't just yours alone; I have a stake in it too!"
Wang Yuwei was so angry that she was trembling all over.
"The Wang Group belongs to my grandfather."
He didn't care at all.
"Then I'll go find Grandpa."
When Wang Xingjie returned home, he told his parents, Wang Tao and Zhao Yuqin, what had happened.
Zhao Yuqin felt sorry for her son and immediately jumped up.
"Wang Yuwei has gone too far; we can't just let this go."
Wang Tao's face was also gloomy. "Yes, we need to teach her a lesson."
After discussing it, the family decided to go to Wang Yuwei's grandfather, Wang Chuan, to put pressure on Wang Yuwei.
Wang Tao and his family of three approached Wang Chuanwen aggressively.
Wang Chuanwen's face turned very ugly when he saw them.
"You still have the nerve to show your faces? Isn't Xingjie's behavior shameful enough?"
He knelt down with a thud.
"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I promise to serve the family well from now on."
Zhao Yuqin was also crying and sobbing beside her.
"Dad, please forgive Xingjie this time. He was just confused for a moment."
“If you don’t let him work on the project, how will our family survive?”
Wang Tao went even further, threatening, "Dad, if you don't agree, we'll give the company's information to our rivals. We'll fight to the death and drag the Wang Group down with us!"
Wang Chuanwen was so angry that his face turned ashen, and his finger trembled as he pointed at them.
"You...you're all being ridiculous!"
