Returning Spring Hall's main hall.
Lu Cheng's words, like a clap of thunder from a clear sky, exploded in the hall!
In an instant, everyone's gaze focused on him!
The representative from Holy Heart Hospital was stunned at first, then couldn't help but sneer twice.
Cure him?
They had used the most advanced equipment and experts, yet were helpless. Could Returning Spring Hall cure the patient?
He tried his best to maintain a polite smile and said:
"Mr. Lu, this isn't a business transaction. Human lives are at stake, no jokes can be made!"
Several Old Chinese Medicine Practitioners from Returning Spring Hall also looked at each other, disbelieving.
Lu Cheng? He was going to personally treat the patient?
Although they all knew the Lu family was powerful and influential, medical skill wasn't something one could acquire with just money and power!
They exchanged glances and unanimously believed that Lu Cheng was probably just spouting nonsense to show off in front of Luo Qingyan, holding no hope at all.
Luo Qingyan looked at Lu Cheng with an even more astonished expression.
He... what did he just say?
He wanted to cure this patient?
But no one in the entire Returning Spring Hall could do it... If she could have cured him, she would have done so already. Why would Lin Fan have caused an accident?
Or was it...?
Could it be that Lu Cheng... possessed medical skills?
Lin Fan, who was listening in the corner, was stunned at first, then a look of wild joy appeared on his face!
Is this rich second generation heir stupid?
If he couldn't cure him, who could?
He was a good-for-nothing, what did he know about medicine!
Likes to show off?
You've stumbled into my area of expertise!
Lu Cheng simply instructed the nurse next to him, "Push the patient into the operating room."
Luo Qingyan and several Old Chinese Medicine Practitioners immediately followed, wanting to witness it firsthand.
Of course, Lin Fan was also there; he didn't want to miss Lu Cheng's failed attempt at showing off.
Lu Cheng walked to the operating table, briefly glanced at the patient's sallow face, then casually took his pulse. With a flick of his wrist, he silently injected the second dose of the [Life Potential Stimulant] stabilizer into the patient's body.
Then, he looked at Luo Qingyan, who was full of worry and tension, and gave her a reassuring look.
He just casually picked up a set of silver needles.
The next second!
Lu Cheng's aura suddenly changed!
His previous lazy gentleness disappeared, replaced by the calm demeanor of a grandmaster!
He gently flicked his wrist, picking up a slender silver needle.
His movements were fluid and graceful!
Twisting, turning, lifting, inserting... invisible air currents seemed to swirl around his fingertips.
He was performing the "Taiyi Crossing Calamity Needle Technique" from the [Thirteen Chapters of Acupunctures] rewarded by the system.
It was completely different from Lin Fan's previous display of the Pure Yang Nine Needles, where his veins bulged and he exerted all his strength.
Although Lu Cheng's expression was focused, he appeared at ease and relaxed.
There wasn't even a single drop of sweat on his forehead.
"Hmph! Just putting on a show, it's still useless..."
Lin Fan saw this from the corner and was about to mock him, saying it wasn't a performance... However!
His words were stuck in his throat before he could utter them.
The patient on the bed actually... reacted!
His previously faint, almost stopping breath, began to become steady and strong!
His complexion was also gradually returning to normal, even a little rosy.
Immediately after, his emaciated fingers gently moved!
"Holy crap! He... he moved, he moved!"
Someone let out an exclamation of surprise!
This... how was this possible?!
Several Old Chinese Medicine Practitioners were dumbfounded, looking at Lu Cheng not as a young man, but as an reclusive, divinely skilled medical master.
Luo Qingyan's glass-like eyes were filled with surprise and excitement... She realized that Lu Cheng's abilities far exceeded her imagination.
The scales in her heart, at this moment, completely tipped towards Lu Cheng.
And Lin Fan?
He felt as if he had been struck by a divine lightning bolt from the heavens!
His mind was blank.
Impossible!
How could he... know medicine?
And... it seems even more powerful than my acupuncture?
Am I... even worse than a good-for-nothing?
His beliefs, his pride... were once again subjected to devastating impact.
Before long, the acupuncture was complete.
Outside the operating room, there was also a commotion.
It turned out that Wang Donghai, the director of Holy Heart Hospital, had heard from his subordinates that Returning Spring Hall was going to cure the patient, and specifically rushed over to watch the show.
He didn't care about Lu Cheng or the Lu family; as long as the patient wasn't cured, he would immediately issue a press release, hire internet trolls, completely discredit Returning Spring Hall, and then promote Holy Heart Hospital.
He even secretly wondered why there were so many more media outlets present today than he had anticipated?
He hadn't spent that much money inviting people, had he?
However, when the operating room door opened.
The patient was wheeled out by the nurses, his face rosy, his breathing steady, and he even... slowly opened his eyes!
"Dad! You're awake!"
The family members waiting by his side instinctively cried out in joyful surprise!
Holy Heart Hospital had failed to cure the patient, and even pulled out a contract, pointing to the traps they had set in it, threatening to sue them for breach of contract and demanding millions in compensation.
The family members had reluctantly agreed to move the patient around... but they never expected... Returning Spring Hall had actually cured him!
Wang Donghai's smile instantly froze.
He looked at the visibly improved patient on the bed with disbelief, his face becoming extremely ugly!
He was clearly... almost dead!
How could he have been cured?
No! It must be a coincidence!
It's... Holy Heart Hospital's treatment over the past few days that worked!
Right! That's it!
He immediately changed his demeanor, forced a smile, and said to the surrounding reporters:
"Everyone, you see! This is all thanks to our Holy Heart Hospital's previous rescue efforts!"
"It's our advanced technology and expert team that laid a good foundation for the patient! Now that he can wake up, it's all thanks to us..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
Lu Cheng walked out of the operating room, his gaze coldly fixed on Wang Donghai, and signaled his bodyguards to act.
The bodyguards immediately stepped forward and handed copies of documents to the reporters present.
Among them were the framing agreement signed between Holy Heart Hospital and the family, as well as chat records proving the threats made to the family.
Lu Cheng then spoke, his voice not loud, but clearly echoing throughout the entire hall, and even spreading across the internet through the reporters' live cameras.
"Friends from the media, the patient's condition is obvious to all."
"Holy Heart Hospital declared him beyond help and abandoned him."
"And our Divine Doctor Luo, Miss Luo Qingyan of Returning Spring Hall, under immense pressure, pondered deeply, worked tirelessly, and finally, within a week, developed a treatment method capable of conquering this cancer patient!"
"But certain individuals, in order to suppress their competitors, did not hesitate to deceive the patient's family into signing such a despicable framing agreement, and even deliberately delayed and worsened the patient's condition, threatening the family, to achieve their ulterior motives..."
Upon hearing this, the reporters, like sharks smelling blood, immediately surrounded Wang Donghai, frantically questioning him.
"Director Wang, what do you think of these accusations?"
"I... I..." Wang Donghai looked at the evidence, cold sweat instantly drenched his back, and he was so guilty that he couldn't utter a word, only repeatedly waved his hands, "No comment! I don't accept interviews!"
Lu Cheng no longer paid attention to the disheveled Wang Donghai.
He was just a small tool-like villain.
He walked to Luo Qingyan's side, gently took her hand, and led her to the front of the crowd.
"Everyone, regarding the specific treatment plan and questions about Chinese medicine, please let our Divine Doctor Luo of Returning Spring Hall answer them for you."
Instantly, all the cameras and microphones turned to Luo Qingyan.
"Divine Doctor Luo, can you really cure cancer?"
"Divine Doctor Luo, how do you view Western medicine's suppression of you and Chinese medicine?"
"Divine Doctor Luo..."
Luo Qingyan was a little overwhelmed by this sudden attention, but what made her even more shy was... Lu Cheng had just held her hand... Although she had treated many male patients and had taken Lu Cheng's pulse, that feeling just now... was completely different.
Now he wanted to give the credit to her? Or did he not want to expose his medical skills and was deliberately hiding them?
Her pretty face was slightly red, and she looked up to meet Lu Cheng's gaze, which was signaling her to continue speaking along the same lines.
Calming herself, she took a deep breath and began to answer the reporters' questions as steadily as possible.
But she knew... her heart was completely in turmoil... At this moment, Lu Cheng silently retreated to the corner, walking to the side of the disheartened Lin Fan.
A devilish smile played on his lips.
He spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Xiao Fan, huh?"
"This show... did you like it?"
"Oh... I almost forgot."
"Your wife..."
"She's really good!"
