Chapter 6759
Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Yun Yuyan was already deeply worried about her mother's illness.
Now, being subjected to such unwarranted humiliation and accusations from Yunxi and her daughter, he must be feeling extremely distressed.
Xiao Chen felt that he couldn't let Yun Yuyan suffer any more harm.
So he took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He forcefully suppressed the raging anger burning within him.
His eyes were as cold as ice blades in the dead of winter, staring intently at Yunxi and Zhou Meilan.
It was as if he wanted to freeze them with his cold gaze.
Just as everyone was arguing fiercely and the atmosphere was so tense it seemed like it could explode at any moment.
Suddenly, a rhythmic "tap-tap" sound came from the end of the corridor.
That was the sound of leather shoes hitting the tiles.
The sound grew clearer and clearer as it approached.
It was as if a hammer blow had struck everyone's hearts, making the already tense atmosphere even more oppressive.
Immediately afterwards, two figures wearing white coats appeared in everyone's sight.
They walked briskly towards this side.
As they approached, a strong smell of disinfectant wafted over them.
The smell was mixed with the tense, gunpowder-like scent emanating from the Yun family members due to their argument.
It made the air in the entire corridor seem to freeze, making it hard to breathe.
Yun Jingtian immediately recognized the middle-aged man walking on the left.
His sparse hairline was particularly noticeable under the light.
He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
The eyes behind the glasses exude a sense of composure and professionalism.
This person was Zhang Haoran, his wife's attending physician.
As if he had seen a lifeline, Yun Jingtian rushed forward in three steps.
Withered fingers gripped the cuffs of the other person's white coat tightly, like iron clamps.
The knuckles turned white from excessive force.
His voice trembled, with a hint of a sob in it.
His Adam's apple bobbed rapidly, as if a thousand words were stuck in his throat, yet he didn't know where to begin.
"Dr. Zhang! You've finally arrived!"
"I went to your office three times this afternoon looking for you, but I couldn't find you anywhere..."
"Please take a look at my wife quickly. Her condition can't be delayed any longer. If the surgery is postponed any longer..."
"I really can't imagine the consequences!"
As he spoke, turbid tears welled up in Yun Jingtian's eyes.
But he held back his tears.
She just looked at Zhang Haoran with eyes full of pleading and anxiety.
Yunxi, with her graceful figure, deliberately squeezed to the front of the crowd.
Her 10-centimeter stiletto heels made a crisp "tap-tap" sound on the smooth floor.
It was as if it were the drumbeats of her provocation.
Her meticulously drawn willow-leaf eyebrows arched high, like two sharp daggers piercing straight at the doctor opposite her.
"Hello Dr. Qian, I am a patient's family member."
Yunxi deliberately dragged out the last syllable, her voice delicate and affected, yet carrying an undeniable arrogance.
A smug smile slowly crept onto her lips, which were painted with bright red lipstick.
That smile was like a poisonous flower blooming in a dark corner, exuding a nauseating scheming.
"I just want to ask, has the ten million yuan surgery fee been paid in full?"
"Don't let this money delay the surgery, that would be bad."
These words were like a bombshell, exploding in the already tense atmosphere.
The blow turned Yun Yuyan's face ashen white instantly.
She felt a buzzing in her head, as if countless bees were buzzing in her ears.
She instinctively took half a step back.
My back slammed heavily against the cold wall.
A bone-chilling cold shot up her spine. Her hands clenched involuntarily.
His nails dug deep into his palms.
The excruciating pain was nothing compared to the panic and fear she felt at that moment.
For some reason, the lights on the corridor ceiling were making a crackling sound.
The sound was particularly jarring in the quiet corridor.
Each sound was like a countdown clock, making Yun Yuyan's heart pound with fear.
She could almost see the moment the doctor shook his head and said the fees weren't paid in full.
The tidal wave of ridicule and accusations from Yunxi and Zhou Meilan would then come crashing down on them.
They were drowned in this endless humiliation.
In her panic, her eyes involuntarily glanced at Xiao Chen beside her.
But I saw that he had his hands casually in his pockets.
He leaned lazily against the wall.
A playful smile played at the corners of his lips.
That smile was unfathomable, as if he had already seen through everything and that everything was under his control.
Zhang Haoran was extremely annoyed by Yunxi's outburst.
He frowned and tugged hard at the cuffs of his sleeve that Yun Jingtian had been gripping tightly.
The look in his eyes behind the glasses was full of impatience.
Today is a very important day for him.
He was supposed to receive Wang Maosheng, a leading figure in the medical field who came from Beijing.
Wang Maosheng is a very well-known figure in the medical field.
If I can make a good impression on him, my career might take a leap forward.
But if something goes wrong and displeases this great master, then one's job will be in jeopardy.
He was about to speak up and drive the crowd away, telling them to stop making trouble and leave quickly so as not to delay important matters.
But just then, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Wang Maosheng beside him had suddenly frozen in place.
That body, which was originally as steady as a mountain, was now as if it had been frozen in place, completely motionless.
This renowned master of traditional Chinese medicine, known for his composure, was now trembling violently with his white eyebrows.
Like withered leaves shivering in the autumn wind.
His gold-rimmed glasses slipped down to the tip of his nose due to his excitement.
But he was completely unaware.
He just stared intently at Xiao Chen.
His eyes were filled with shock, awe, and disbelief.
The next second, something happened that shocked everyone.
Wang Maosheng actually knelt down heavily on the smooth tiled floor.
With a "thump," the sound seemed to strike everyone's heart heavily.
"Dr. Xiao! What are you doing here!"
Wang Maosheng's aged voice was choked with sobs, filled with admiration and excitement for Xiao Chen.
His hands, covered in age spots, gripped Xiao Chen's trouser leg tightly.
It was as if Xiao Chen would disappear the moment they let go.
"You remember me, don't you? We worked together back in Tianjin..."
"Of course, it's mainly thanks to you!"
"If it weren't for your help, that difficult case would never have been resolved so smoothly."
Zhang Haoran felt as if his head was about to explode.
His temples throbbed violently, making it almost impossible for him to concentrate.
Wang Maosheng is a renowned figure in the international medical community and a resident judge of the International Medical Exchange Conference!
Normally, Zhang Haoran would consider it a great honor to even catch a glimpse of someone from afar.
But at this moment, this highly respected master of traditional Chinese medicine was bowing so deeply to a young man who looked very young.
He simply couldn't believe his eyes. (End of Chapter)
