Mrs. Shen cast a cold glance at Li Se upon hearing this, saying, "If my child has any more accidents, you will be held entirely responsible."
Li Se originally had no intention of arguing with this Mrs. Shen, believing that children were not at fault when adults acted foolishly. However, this woman was so aggressive that it made him somewhat angry, and he coldly snorted, "Without me, your son might already be in mortal danger!"
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Dean Tang quickly tried to smooth things over, "Mrs. Shen, we will immediately perform a comprehensive examination on the child."
Mrs. Shen snorted coldly and said no more.
Li Se, too lazy to pay attention to Mrs. Shen, turned to leave.
"Dean Tang, this simpleton really has no foresight," Wang Xiang said dismissively.
Dean Tang frowned but ultimately said nothing, prioritizing the patient's well-being.
As Li Se left the ward, he saw a tall, middle-aged man walking towards them. He was dressed in a black suit, his hair slicked back, exuding an aura of shrewdness and capability, commanding respect without needing to be stern.
Dean Tang and the others immediately stepped forward, all respectfully greeting, "Mr. Shen!"
Li Se immediately knew who this man was: the richest man in Qingyun City, Shen Long!
"Husband, you've finally arrived," Mrs. Shen said, rushing to greet Shen Long.
"How is the child?" Shen Long asked.
"Mr. Shen, we are about to conduct a thorough examination. Just now, thanks to..." Dean Tang also stepped forward, intending to give credit back to Li Se, but before he could finish speaking.
"Oh my god!" A foreigner accompanying Shen Long exclaimed, his expression changing dramatically, "Who put these needles in the child? This is playing with someone's life! If anything happens, can you take responsibility?"
Shen Long also frowned upon seeing the two silver needles on his child's shoulders.
"Who is this?" Dean Tang asked, confused.
"This is the Vice President of the American Medical Association, Charles!" Shen Long introduced calmly.
Upon hearing Charles's title, the doctors in the ward were all astonished. The Vice President of the American Medical Association, this was a true authority in Western medicine!
Dean Tang naturally dared not be negligent and quickly explained, "It's like this, this is acupuncture from Traditional Chinese Medicine..."
However, before he could finish, Charles interrupted him, "What bullshit Traditional Chinese Medicine? Can this thing even treat illness? Quickly pull out the silver needles, this Chinese medicine is going to harm people!"
Charles's words were extremely harsh, causing Li Se, who was standing outside the ward, to frown slightly. He glanced in and saw Charles about to pull out the silver needles from the child.
"Stop!" Li Se immediately shouted, "The silver needles cannot be pulled out!"
He had not completely cured the child's illness. The silver needles were only controlling the spread of the poison. If the needles were removed, the poison within the child would become even more severe than before.
Charles glanced at Li Se with disdain, not even wanting to exchange more words with him.
Wang Xiang immediately chimed in contemptuously, "Charles is the Vice President of the American Medical Association. How dare you question him?"
Li Se said no more. He genuinely wanted to save the child, but since no one trusted him, he had no other choice but to disengage.
"If you pull out the needles, you will regret it!" Li Se said in a deep voice.
But no one paid him any attention; they acted as if he didn't exist.
Dean Tang hesitated for a moment and said, "Perhaps, we shouldn't pull out these needles?"
"As the dean, how can you say something so preposterous?" Charles found it unbelievable. Without further hesitation, he quickly pulled out the silver needles.
