Xue Zhen was deeply hurt. His medical skills were quite good, but now he was being looked down upon like this. However, he had no temper in front of Ye Xingchen and could only obediently stand up and stay to the side.
"Richard, who is this?" Yul looked at Ye Xingchen with a puzzled expression.
“Yule, thank you for taking care of my sister all these years. This is Ye; he’s here to treat Jane,” Richard said.
"Is he also a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine? Where did you find him?" Yul was speechless.
“He’s a friend I just met… Believe me, he can do it,” Richard explained.
“Richard, my feelings for Jane have never changed, so I’ve been taking care of her all these years.” Richard was a little emotional. “I’ve never given up.”
“I’m currently developing a drug to repair the central nervous system. If it succeeds, it will definitely cure her. But why do you insist on believing in this bullshit traditional Chinese medicine?”
“Yule, don’t get agitated. I know your feelings for Jane have never changed over the years, and I’m always grateful to you.” Richard quickly said, “But Jane is my sister. I just want her to get better, do you understand?”
“I understand, but do you really believe this person can cure Zhen’s illness?” Yul pointed at Ye Xingchen and sneered, “I’ve heard that the older the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, the more sought-after they are. There are too many swindlers here.”
"Have you heard of the Starry Sky Group?" Ye Xingchen said calmly, "I am Ye Xingchen, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Starry Sky Group. I created the Soul-Locking Pill."
"You're Ye Xingchen?" Yu'er, who worked in the pharmaceutical industry, naturally knew Ye Xingchen. "You're the Ye Xingchen who possesses a drug that can bring the dead back to life?"
"Looks like you've heard of it." Ye Xingchen glanced at him.
"Heh, if this person is a little liar," Yul laughed angrily, pointing at Xue Zhen and then looking at Ye Xingchen, "then this person must be a big liar."
"Why? Why are you saying that, Yul?" Richard asked, puzzled.
"Chinese people are very shrewd in business. This person is hyping up his medicine in the media, claiming it can bring the dead back to life. Do you really believe such an absurd thing?" Yul sneered.
“Richard, I swear on my integrity, this guy is definitely a big liar.”
Yul was excited. He had indeed heard that Ye Xingchen's Soul-Locking Pill could bring the dead back to life, but he had scoffed at it at the time, believing it to be a scam.
But he never expected that this swindler would actually try to scam him. This was intolerable to him.
"Ye, do you really have a medicine that can bring the dead back to life?" Qi Lichai became excited: "Can I use it on my sister? Name your price, I'll take it no matter how much."
"Richard, are you crazy?" Yul was furious. It turned out that this guy was just grasping at straws in desperation, believing whatever the other party said.
"I'm sorry, there's only a limited quantity of this medicine, and I have a limited supply myself. Besides, curing your sister's illness doesn't require such precious medicine at all. Let me begin now." Ye Xingchen shook his head and took out the needle.
Xue Zhen stood up, obediently gave up his seat, and then removed the needle he had been using.
“Richard, you didn’t take my words to heart at all; you’re just grasping at straws in your desperation,” Yul snapped.
"Yule, please believe me this once, and believe in Mr. Ye this once too. A miracle will happen." Richard gave a bitter smile.
"You still don't believe me? Fine, let's make a bet," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"What kind of bet?" Yul asked.
"I bet I can make her wake up within half an hour and remember everything that happened between you two," Ye Xingchen said confidently. "If I can't, I'll give you my Xingchen Group."
“Okay, what do you need me to wager?” Yul asked.
“You are well-known internationally. In three years, my Xingchen Group will promote traditional Chinese medicine to the world. At that time, we will need your approval.” Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
“If you can wake her up within half an hour, I’ll personally endorse you internationally.” Yul raised his head. “And I guarantee there won’t be any resistance.”
"Alright, it's a deal. I'll begin now." Ye Xingchen nodded and began the acupuncture.
"The places you inserted the needles are almost exactly the same as where he inserted them just now," Yu'er asked, watching Ye Xingchen insert the needles.
“No, it’s different.” Xue Zhen stared intently at Ye Xingchen’s needlework, his eyes almost shining: “This is the highest level of acupuncture. Every needle is reinforced with true qi… I’m far from that level.”
"Playing hard to get," Yul muttered, but he still watched intently.
Because he genuinely hoped that Jane would wake up.
In the blink of an eye, twenty minutes had passed, and Ye Xingchen's administrative duties were coming to an end.
He pointed with his right hand, and a golden needle suddenly floated up and hovered at the Baihui acupoint.
Ye Xingchen changed his aura with both hands, injecting his true energy into the needles, and then slowly pushed them towards the Baihui acupoint.
This is the final injection of the 'Godhood' technique. Once this injection is administered, the spirit will return to its original state and awaken.
But this injection cannot be done incorrectly, otherwise all the previous efforts will be wasted.
Everyone held their breath, watching Ye Xingchen administer the needle.
But at that moment, Ye Xingchen felt a chill run down his spine as a sense of danger approached, and at the same time, a sharp pain shot through his back.
A willow-leaf-shaped hidden weapon flew towards them, arriving in an instant.
Ye Xingchen roared and pushed his hands forward, the golden needles suddenly piercing down.
While his focused injection was successful, he was too preoccupied to notice the attack from behind.
With a thud, he took the hit from the opponent's hidden weapon with his back.
The woman on the hospital bed twitched her fingers and opened her eyes.
"He's awake! He's really awake! Mr. Ye, are you alright?" Richard was stunned; Ye Xingchen had been hit in the back by a hidden weapon.
"It's nothing." Ye Xingchen's arms trembled, and his true energy burst forth from his body.
With a soft "poof," the willow-leaf-shaped hidden weapon burst out of his body, having been blasted out of his body.
At the same time, a figure flashed outside the window, and a beautiful woman quickly flew away from the scene.
"Si Qianyu? It's you again." Ye Xingchen was furious. He had spared her last time because of her innate talent and superior aptitude, but he didn't expect this woman to be so persistent.
"The patient should rest more. I'll be right back." Ye Xingchen took a step forward, and in a flash, he had already darted out the window.
In the darkness, Ye Xingchen chased after them all the way to a bamboo forest on the outskirts of the city.
Si Qianyu is the senior sister of the Three Thousand Towers. She is at the peak of the Earth Realm and is as light as a swallow. Her Cloud Swallow Step can cover several feet in one leap, and her movement is extremely fast.
"Si Qianyu, come out." Ye Xingchen stopped in the bamboo forest and shouted in a deep voice.
He was truly enraged this time.
This woman could plot against me however she wanted, but that was a critical moment for saving someone, and one wrong move could have resulted in a death.
This time, we have to teach her a good lesson.
There was no response from anyone around, only the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the bamboo forest.
