"What?"
Zhang Shiman hadn't expected Chen Tiebing to kneel down himself, let alone demand that she do the same. Naturally, she was unwilling.
So, although she didn't speak, she showed no intention of moving, planning to remain in a stalemate.
But Chen Tiebing was in a state of extreme anxiety and had no time to waste with her. Thus, he immediately roared again, "I want you to kneel down! Did you hear me, damn it!"
"If you don't kneel today, from the moment you leave this door, don't ever come back to my house again!"
Zhang Shiman might not fear this or that.
But if Chen Tiebing were to divorce her, she would be absolutely terrified.
Moreover, she clearly understood that with Chen Tiebing's connections, if they divorced, she wouldn't get a single cent.
At that point, she would be penniless and would only be able to work as a hostess in a bar!
Thinking of this, Zhang Shiman's proud self-esteem finally gave way.
She clenched her fists, and despite her deep unwillingness, she could only obediently kneel before Wu Tian.
In that instant, humiliation filled her heart, and she felt as if she were going mad.
Chen Tiebing then said to Wu Tian, "Doctor Wu, this was all our fault as a couple."
"We apologize to you now. Can you forgive me?"
If it were only Zhang Shiman, even if her knees were shattered from kneeling, Wu Tian would not have softened his heart.
But Chen Tiebing was different. Regardless, he was still the director of the Health Bureau, and having this connection was better than not having it.
Therefore, he nodded and said, "Alright, there's no time to delay. Since that's the case, let's go quickly."
Chen Tiebing hadn't expected Wu Tian to change his mind so readily.
He immediately became excited and quickly nodded, "Thank you, Doctor Wu, thank you, Doctor Wu. Let's go, let's go..."
After saying that, the group returned to the main hall.
For Wu Tian, Chen Tiebing's father's condition was not a difficult matter at all.
Let alone him, if Wang Shengsou could carefully examine the patient's condition, he would likely be able to resolve it.
He inserted a few silver needles simply and then said to Chen Tiebing, "Director Chen, it's resolved. After resting for one more day, your father will be fine."
No one had expected Wu Tian to resolve it so quickly.
Chen Tiebing's eyes widened as he said, "No way, Doctor Wu, it's already resolved? Isn't this a bit too fast?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "What's wrong? If you think I'm too fast, I can insert a couple more needles."
"But if anything unexpected happens afterward, you can't blame me."
Chen Tiebing quickly shook his head, "Then there's no need. This is fine, really fine."
Next, Chen Tiebing checked on his father's condition. After ensuring his father's mental state had recovered, he then had the nurse escort him to the ward for recuperation.
Chen Tiebing was completely in awe of Wu Tian's skills.
Indeed, this was a true divine doctor, how could someone like Xu Chao, a quack, compare?
He tightly grasped Wu Tian's hand and said with great emotion, "Doctor Wu, thank you so much."
"Your great kindness, I truly don't know how to express my gratitude!"
"You saved my father today, which makes you my savior!"
"From now on, if you need anything, just say the word, and I will definitely help you!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Director Chen, you are too polite. This was just a small effort, please don't take it to heart, Director Chen."
Looking at Wu Tian's nonchalant demeanor, the onlookers felt a sense of refreshing breeze, and their admiration surged.
They had clearly mocked Wu Tian without any reservation before, but at this moment, they were all saying:
"This young man is truly remarkable. So young, yet he's such a skilled doctor. What will he achieve in the future?"
"Look, what do you call a true master!"
"Such masters are always low-key, unlike some people who, despite having no skill at all, dare to come out and swindle."
"Yes, it's fortunate that nothing major happened, otherwise, with his clumsy medical skills, he would definitely have been sent to jail!"
Hearing the crowd's mocking voices, Xu Chao felt both angry and vexed, but he was helpless, as he had indeed made such a fool of himself.
After this incident, he felt he would have no place in this hospital.
Strangely, while even Chen Tiebing hadn't spoken in rebuttal, Zhang Shiman shouted furiously, "Hey! What are you all talking about here!"
"What business is it of yours? Do you need to be babbling here!"
"I'm telling you, Doctor Xu is highly skilled, you just don't know it!"
"If you dare to speak nonsense again, be careful, I won't be polite to you!"
Although the crowd was displeased with Zhang Shiman, out of consideration for her being the director's wife, they remained silent.
At this moment, Wu Tian said with a half-smile, "That's not right. The more I look, the more I find something amiss."
"What is your relationship with Doctor Xu? If Doctor Xu falls, that's his own business. Why are you so anxious?"
"Could it be that what I said earlier was correct, that your relationship is not ordinary?"
"This..." Zhang Shiman realized she had spoken out of turn, and her expression immediately became stiff.
Chen Tiebing also finally sensed something was unusual.
He frowned and said, "Yes, wife, I also find it very strange. What does it have to do with you? Aren't you being overly concerned?"
Zhang Shiman's eyes became a little dazed. With great difficulty, she stammered, "This... I... I also admire Doctor Xu's skills!"
"Doctor Xu is clearly an excellent doctor, but now everyone is slandering him, and I can't stand it, so I spoke out. Is there anything wrong with that!"
Wu Tian laughed, "That's not right. Everyone has seen Doctor Xu's skills."
"With his level of skill, is there anything worth your admiration?"
"Also, if I'm not mistaken, he should be studying Western medicine, right?"
"But a person who studies Western medicine suddenly wants to use Chinese medicine to treat illnesses, and even with advanced techniques like acupuncture."
"And you are so enthusiastic about his acupuncture, as if you've seen it before."
"Tell me, isn't that also very strange?"
As soon as Wu Tian said this, an atmosphere of suspicion immediately spread, and everyone showed different expressions.
Chen Tiebing could sense that Wu Tian's words had a hidden meaning, so he continued to press Zhang Shiman, saying, "What is going on!"
"Quick, tell me, do you know something!"
