Upon seeing Ray Waltersâ tense attitude, the people around were taken aback.
As for the Gold Chain Man, his face changed drastically!
For people like them, Ray Walters was someone unattainable, and no one dared to provoke him!
âSo, that young man brought these people.â
âNo wonder heâs so arrogant, he must have some background.â
The crowd became talkative and retreated a few steps.
Ethan Smith glanced at the Gold Chain Man and said, âThis man is up to you now.â
Ray Walters nodded quickly and said, âNo problem.â
With a wave of his hand, Rayâs men swarmed over to the Gold Chain Man, who was soon on the ground!
âBrother Ray, I didnât know he was one of your people⦠I⦠Iâm sorryâ¦â said the Gold Chain Man, with a terrified look on his face.
Ray Walters snapped, âMy people? This is Mr. Ethan Smith! If you dare disrespect him, Iâll never let you off!â
At the mention of Ethan Smith, the scene began to boil.
âSo, heâs Ethan Smith! No wonder heâs so confident!â
âNot long ago, Ethan Smith defeated the Lewis Family of South City!â
âI heard his medical skills are exceptional!â
Not far away, Dorian Dawsonâs eyes narrowed slightly.
Looking at Ethan Smith, Dorian laughed coldly, âSo, youâre Ethan Smith. Iâve heard of your name, I heard that the Soul Nourishment Pill came from your hands.â
Ethan Smith glanced at him and said, âIâm sorrv, Iâve never heard of vour
name.â
Dorian Dawsonâs face turned cold, and he squinted, saying, âEthan Smith, weâre both in the same field, why do you have to offend me over a peasant woman?â âIn the same field?â Ethan Smith laughed coldly.
âSomeone who sees money and steps on others to praise himself dares to compare himself to me?â Ethanâs words didnât spare any mercy, making Dorianâs face turn red with anger.
Dorian Dawson coldly said, âEthan Smith, donât be too arrogant. Youâll need me sooner or later!â
âSorry, I will never need someone like you in my whole life,â Ethan Smith retorted.
Just as Dorian was about to lose his temper, a well-dressed middle-aged man came running over.
This middle-aged man was none other than the dean of the Traditional Medicine Hospital.
With some panic, the dean approached them and awkwardly asked,
âWhatâ¦whatâs going on here?â
Dorian snorted and said, âDr. Cobbett, Iâve traveled a long way from Shiglance
City to River City to treat your patients, is this how you treat me?â
Dr. Cobbett hurriedly said, âDoctor Dawson, is thereâ¦is there a misunderstanding here?â
âMisunderstanding?â Dorian raised his eyebrows, pointed at Ethan Smith and scolded, âI kindly treat patients, but this person comes to sabotage my work. Dr. Cobbett, what kind of security work are you people doing here at the hospital!â
Dr. Cobbett glanced at Ethan Smith, feeling distraught in his heart. Ethan Smith had recently gained great fame, and Dr.Cobbett couldnât afford to offend either of them.
âMrâ¦Mr. Smith, whatâs going on hereâ¦â Dr. Cobbett gathered his courage to ask.
Ethan Smith looked at him and said, âArenât you afraid to tarnish your hospitalâs reputation by inviting someone like this?â
âDr. Cobbett, did you hear that? Regardless of anything, I am still his senior, yet he speaks disrespectfully towards me!â Dorian Dawson coldly snorted.
âI now demand that you expel him immediately, otherwise I will cancel todayâs consultation!â Dorian threatened.
The people around were immediately thrown into panic; they had been in line for most of the day. Many had even taken time off work for Dorianâs consultation.
Dr. Cobbett was even more worried, having spent a large sum of money to invite Dorian. If he left now, all their efforts would be completely wasted!
Dorian looked at Ethan Smith triumphantly, sneering, âKid, arenât you the good Samaritan? Hurry up and scram, otherwise these people wonât have a place to go for their treatments.â
âNowhere to go?â Ethan raised his eyebrows.
âYouâre really full of yourself, huh? Do you think thereâs no one else who can treat patients besides you?â Ethan laughed coldly.
Dorian sneered, âWhat do you mean?â
Ethan Smith ignored Dorian and turned to Dr. Cobbett, saying, âDr. Cobbett, if you donât mind, Iâd like to take Dorianâs place as a free consultant and provide free treatment.â
âHahaha!â As soon as Ethan Smithâs words came out, Dorian burst into laughter.
âEthan Smith, do you think that just because youâve created the Soul
Nourishment Pill, youâre some sort of medical genius?â Dorian asked loudly.
âI, Dorian Dawson, started learning medicine at eight, became well-known by nineteen, and have integrated Chinese and western medicine by twenty-seven! Now, Iâm even known as the Medicine God! Who do you think you are?â Dorian sneered.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dr. Cobbett was also in a dilemma, as he knew nothing about Ethan Smithâs capabilities.
Moreover, Ethan Smith indeed had no reputation in the medical field.
âMr. Smith, youâre an esteemed person, how could you treat patients for us?â someone nearby whispered.
âYeah, Mr. Smith, why donât you just leave first and let us spend the moneyâ¦â
âMr. Smith, we know you mean well, butâ¦â
The crowd gathered to advise Ethan, showing that they didnât believe in his abilities.
Ethan Smith looked at Dr. Cobbett and said, âDr. Cobbett, what do you think?â
After pondering for a moment, Dr. Cobbett gathered his courage and said, âMr. Smith, I know you have a great reputation, but we only know your medical skills through hearsay, and have never seen them in action. Would it be possible for you to demonstrate in front of us?â
âYes, Mr. Smith, itâs not that we donât trust you, but⦠itâs our lives at stake, and we donât want to take risksâ¦â someone else added.
Ethan Smith nodded his head and looked at the peasant woman beside him, politely saying, âSister, I just promised to treat your daughter, do you trust me?â
The peasant womanâs expression showed some struggle. She looked at the crying child in her arms and then at Ethan Smith.
Finally, she clenched her teeth and said, âMr. Smith, since youâre willing to offend Dorian Dawson for a village woman like me, I believe you!â âGood.â Ethan Smith immediately walked up to the little girl.
He slowly raised his hand and placed it on the little girlâs forehead.
Next, a stream of qi flowed from Ethanâs palm to the little girlâs forehead.
In just thirty seconds, the crying of the little girl ceased!
The peasant woman was stunned. She quickly put her hand on the little girlâs forehead and shouted, âSheâs really fever-free now! Sheâs really fever-free!â
Dr. Cobbett rushed forward and checked on the little girl.
âIndeed, the fever is gone!â Dr. Cobbett exclaimed in shock.
âThank you so much, Mr. Smith!â The peasant woman didnât hesitate and immediately tried to bow to Ethan Smith in gratitude.
Ethan raised his hand, and a gentle force lifted the peasant woman up.
âSister, thereâs no need to bow to me since Iâve promised you. I never go back on my word..â
