Chapter 127: What the Hell! You’re This Injured and Still Trying to Show Off?

---

"A little praise and he's already this arrogant? Just because he treated a few people, now he doesn't even remember his own name!"

"I've been a doctor for years, but I've never seen someone so full of himself!"

"No humility at all!"

At that moment, an elderly Chinese doctor stood up and rebuked, "Young man, I advise you to show some humility! Your medical skills may be impressive, but that doesn't give you the right to be arrogant! Remember, there's always someone better out there!"

Another senior doctor followed, "Exactly! Just because you cured a few patients doesn't mean you've reached the pinnacle of medicine. The true experts haven't even stepped forward yet. You still have a long way to go, so rein in your arrogance!"

"You don't know your limits! Your skills may be good, but your medical ethics are sorely lacking. I suggest you apologize to the doctors here!"

However, Wang Siquan remained unfazed, his expression proud. "Did I say anything wrong? A loss is a loss. Should I sugarcoat it? I can't believe that not only are your medical skills lacking, but even your hearts are so fragile!"

"You—!" The crowd fumed, glaring at him.

But Wang Siquan remained smug. "Since you claim there's still a great doctor among you, bring him out! I'll be happy to challenge him! If no one steps forward, it just proves you're all afraid! Hahaha!"

The audience was both furious and helpless.

In reality, the doctors present were some of the most renowned in the city.

Yet, they had all lost to this young upstart.

Someone whispered to Song Yuqing, "President Song, what about Dr. Zhao Siming? His medical expertise is exceptional, and I heard he's a direct disciple of the Guigu School. Maybe he can put this arrogant brat in his place!"

Song Yuqing smiled bitterly. "Zhao Siming is currently involved in a legal case and is assisting with an investigation. He won't be coming."

"Sigh..." The crowd could only let out a collective sigh of disappointment.

Meanwhile, Wang Siquan continued his display, basking in his moment of dominance.

All the doctors present felt humiliated.

But the audience—ordinary guests and patients—were delighted.

A mere young doctor from Yaowang Hospital was already this skilled? Then surely, their hospital must have top-tier medical expertise!

If they ever needed treatment, they would consider going there.

And that was exactly the kind of reputation-building Yaowang Hospital aimed for.

Watching his old rival bask in arrogance, Xiao Chen, who prided himself on being the protagonist, couldn't sit still any longer.

Earlier, he had been forced to endure it—after all, he still needed medical treatment.

But now that he had received the best medicine, his pain was significantly reduced, and his mobility was improving.

There was no longer any reason to hold back.

With two silver needles in hand, he inserted them into key acupuncture points, stimulating his body's Qi and blood circulation. The injuries were temporarily suppressed, allowing him to move freely.

Then, he stood up and declared, "No tigers in the mountain, so the monkey calls himself king! Wang Siquan, I challenge you!"

Everyone turned to stare at him, stunned.

"What is this patient doing?"

"He's this injured, yet he's picking a fight with Wang Siquan?"

"What qualifications does he even have?"

"Is he out of his mind?"

Even the two main protagonists were caught off guard.

Ye Xingchen muttered, "Could it be that Genius Doctor Xiao Chen is about to showcase his medical skills, just like in his previous life, and slap Wang Siquan in the face?"

Angkor gasped, "Damn! You're hurt this badly, and you're still trying to show off?"

Even Wang Siquan was momentarily stunned.

A patient he had just treated was now standing up to challenge him?

Other doctors didn't dare, but he did? What kind of development was this?

Could his brain have been damaged?

Hmm... very possible.

Wang Siquan nodded to himself, his expression turning serious.

He had seen cases like this before—patients who had been hospitalized for too long, trapped in a single room, growing depressed and developing mental illnesses.

Judging from Xiao Chen's behavior today, something seemed... off.

There was a high probability he was suffering from some kind of mental breakdown!

"Mr. Xiao, don't get agitated! Someone, bring him a chair! Mr. Xiao, please have a seat!"

Xiao Chen frowned. "Why would I sit down?"

"I need to examine your brain!"

Xiao Chen: "..."

His mind almost shattered from sheer frustration.

"I'm fine! There's nothing wrong with my brain!"

Wang Siquan nodded reassuringly. "Of course, of course. Your brain is fine—perhaps it's a psychological issue instead! In today's fast-paced world, many people suffer from mental health conditions. Don't worry, I'll check for you. It won't take long!"

For mental health cases, the best approach was not to argue but to go along with the patient's thoughts.

As a doctor, Wang Siquan was quite experienced in this regard.

Xiao Chen nearly exploded. "I'm telling you, I'm not mentally ill, I'm not crazy, and there's nothing wrong with me! I'm challenging you—do you understand what I mean?"

Wang Siquan waved his hand dismissively. "No need for a challenge. I admit defeat. Now, please sit down!"

Xiao Chen: Pfft!

Even the surrounding doctors, who had previously been annoyed with Wang Siquan, couldn't help but nod in approval.

"Say what you will about his arrogance, but he treats his patients well!"

"He's handling this remarkably well. If it were me, I might have lost my temper!"

"This young doctor has a good heart!"

"But honestly, I do suspect this patient has some mental issues."

"It's best to have him checked out!"

Xiao Chen: Pfft!

Only Angkor and Ye Xingchen, who knew the real story, were laughing so hard they had tears in their eyes.

Even Lin Beifan couldn't hold back his laughter.

Today was worth it for this joke alone!

At this moment, everyone in the room was looking at Xiao Chen like he was a clown.

He had nearly been diagnosed as mentally ill on the spot!

Taking two deep breaths to suppress his frustration, Xiao Chen finally calmed himself down and said seriously, "Wang Siquan, I'm not joking—I mean this sincerely! Have you heard of the Guigu School? Are you familiar with Guigu Acupuncture?"

At the mention of Guigu, Wang Siquan's expression became serious.

"Of course I know about the Guigu School! It's an ancient and prestigious lineage of Chinese medicine in our country, as renowned as my Yaowang Valley! While Yaowang Valley specializes in medicine, the Guigu School excels in acupuncture. They developed the legendary Guigu Acupuncture Technique, known to bring the dead back to life!"

"However, this is a closely guarded secret within the medical community. How do you know about it?"
