Zhu Xiuli had lived and studied at Emrick Harvard College for many years, majoring in economics, though many of her classmates were studying clinical dicine.
As is well-known, Harvard College’s clinical dicine is among the best in the world, and the number and quality of dical papers they publish each year are also exceptionally high.
When she had free ti, Zhu Xiuli would also chat with her d student classmates and friends.
For Western dicine, their dical diagnoses rely on high-tech equipnt, such as CT scans, MRIs, blood analysis, DNA testing, etc., all of which have solid scientific foundations.
As for prescribing dications, they were extrely precise, typically prescribing dicine after reviewing diagnostic reports and based on the specific conditions of the illness.
But then there was Mister Mo, who supposedly could treat complex and difficult diseases with just a single elixir.
Especially for diabetes and rheumatism, which seem quite common, yet they remain daunting challenges for modern dicine, which, at its current level, is essentially unable to cure them.
Particularly in the case of rheumatism, modern dicine defines it as a group of diseases primarily invading the joints, bones, muscles, blood vessels, and related soft or connective tissues, many of which are autoimmune diseases.
This disease is different from others with its high frequency of attacks and abrupt onset. If the acute phase passes, it can damage the heart,
resulting in rheumatic heart valve disease.
This disease cannot be cured by dication alone and requires regular care and prevention to forestall outbreaks.
But now, Mister Mo claims that this small elixir, no, just a quarter of it, can cure rheumatism. That’s utterly nonsensical.
Today, she was forced by her grandfather to co here and even told to please Mister Mo at all costs.
She initially thought Mister Mo was an influential figure, only to find out he’s a charlatan exploiting the na of traditional Chinese dicine.
"Hmph!"
This sneer, like a crystal clear droplet of water dropped into a seething pot of oil, sparked an outburst of splatters.
Everyone simultaneously raised their heads, their gaze turning toward Zhu Xiuli, looking sowhat displeased.
Particularly Tang Guowei, Zhou Zhishan, and Gui Nongsang, they were all counting on Mister Mo’s dicine to save their lives, and now, soone dared to question Mister Mo.
Under the scrutiny of everyone, Zhu Xiuli felt sowhat embarrassed, but thinking that the Four Great Families might be deceived by this young man, she mustered her courage and stood up, smiling slightly at Mo Han and bowing in greeting.
"Mister Mo, you claim that this ’Qiankun Elixir’ can really cure diseases like diabetes and rheumatism, problems that plague the entire world?"
"That’s correct," Mo Han nodded, his expression calm as he spoke. "This dicine is extrely effective, and it can cure diseases that modern dicine struggles with..."
Pff... Zhu Xiuli couldn’t help but burst into laughter, laughing for a good five or six seconds before she abruptly stopped, her expression turning stern as she said, "You scamr! How much longer do you plan to deceive everyone!"
"I’ve studied abroad at Emrick Harvard College for many years, and I have never heard of any dicine in the world that can cure chronic diseases like diabetes and rheumatism!"
Before Mo Han could respond, Tang Guowei couldn’t stand it any longer and let out a cold huff, his tone displeased, "Old Four, your granddaughter lacks manners."
"If she doesn’t learn respect, she shouldn’t be brought to such events in the future."
At gatherings of the heads of the Four Great Families, only the absolute core mbers of the families were brought, those who had a considerable chance of taking over the family business in the future.
With these words, Tang Guowei was implicitly telling Zhu Wenjin, "I don’t like this girl, and if you plan on making her the future head of the Zhu Family, I won’t stand for it!"
Zhu Wenjin’s face imdiately changed color, and just as he was about to speak, Zhou Zhishan grunted through his nose and added, "So incompetent youngsters go abroad for a few years, drink a few years of ’foreign ink’, and forget the nas of their ancestors!"
"Old Four, as the saying goes, ’you cannot keep a grown girl at ho’, you should promptly find a suitor for your granddaughter."
Wen Tianning, although silent, had a sharpness in his eyes.
With all three families holding this stance, Zhu Wenjin felt a bitter taste in his heart. He had wanted to bring his granddaughter Xiuli to make a good impression, but it seed he had instead shot himself in the foot.
He gave an awkward smile and cupped his fist toward Mo Han, "Mister Mo, I’m truly sorry. Xiuli has been studying abroad for many years and isn’t well-inford about the situation back ho. I apologize to you and hope you will forgive her without holding a grudge. Xiuli, co here and apologize to Mister Mo at once!"
As he said this, he imdiately glared sharply at his granddaughter.
Zhu Xiuli had always been afraid of her grandfather, and now under pressure from so many people, she felt imnse psychological stress.
After a mont of internal struggle, she ultimately raised her head, resolutely looking at everyone in the hall, and said loudly, "Respected elders and sisters, I know that no matter what I say now, none of you will believe , but I can’t stand idly by! So things must be spoken out loud!"
"The current situation is just like the fairy tale ’The Emperor’s New Clothes.’ Nearly everyone believes what Mister Mo says, yet few have raised questions."
"Yes, perhaps Mister Mo does possess so dical knowledge, but how could he possibly cure global challenges like diabetes and rheumatism with just an elixir?"
"There is no dicine in the world that can cure these intractable diseases!"
"If soone claims there is, that person is definitely a fraudster!"
