The corner of Qiao Yizhen’s mouth twitched slightly. He had indeed been treating Du Jingsong for two years, but this illness was fundantally incurable and could only prolong the ti before death.
The characteristic of Traditional Chinese dicine (TCM) is regulation, using the body’s own immune system for treatnt.
It can be said that TCM heals while also maintaining the body.
If it weren’t for Qiao Yizhen using TCM to regulate, Du Jingsong wouldn’t have lasted two years and would have died long ago.
Now, Du Jingsong’s body has been regulated to be sowhat better, and Western dicine has gained the upper hand, able to directly stimulate Du Jingsong’s potential.
In other words, they consu his bodily functions to prolong his life.
As such, at this point, all Qiao Yizhen could say was that Du Jingsong had one month left to live, while this Snowder had the capability to let Du Jingsong live for another six months.
This made Snowder appear more capable, but those six months were achieved through TCM regulation.
"Elder Qiao, do you think what Dr. Snowder said is possible?" Du Haotian, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, looked at Qiao Yizhen, actively seeking his opinion.
Qiao Yizhen let out a bitter laugh and said, "Theoretically, it is possible."
The reasons behind this were not sothing he could easily explain, and besides, he wasn’t one to pursue fa and profit, insisting on claiming credit.
"How about it? I said that TCM is useless and just wasted so much of Mr. Du’s treatnt ti. If Dr. Snowder had been brought in earlier, Mr. Du might have lived for several more years."
Du Qii snorted coldly and said.
She was the youngest of the three siblings and the one least in favor of TCM, feeling that TCM had no scientific basis.
Given the current era, it’s unbelievable that people still believe in TCM.
However, Qiao Yizhen held such a high position in the dical community, with even many senior Western dicine professors respecting him, so the Du Family opted to let Qiao Yizhen continue treating Mr. Du.
Over these two years, Mr. Du’s illness had been managed sowhat under Qiao Yizhen’s care, but now Qiao Yizhen claid Mr. Du only had a month left.
Thus, she and Pei Wen specifically sought out Snowder, intending to sha Qiao Yizhen.
Hearing Du Qii’s insult to TCM, Qiao Yizhen couldn’t hold back any longer and imdiately explained, "It’s not that TCM is useless, it’s just that TCM emphasizes maintenance, so before..."
But before he could finish, Du Qii interrupted him, frowning as she said, "Don’t bother with nonsense; all I know is that Dr. Snowder can let Mr. Du live another half year, whereas you can only leave him waiting to die!"
Qiao Yizhen’s face instantly changed. Being spoken to in such a way by Du Qii made him feel extrely uncomfortable.
He’s not soone who cares about fa, but he cannot tolerate anyone looking down on TCM like that.
"Dr. Snowder, you’re an international expert and should understand TCM. Could you explain the reason behind this to everyone? Why was it that two years ago, only I dared to take on treating Mr. Du? Please clarify, if you would."
Qiao Yizhen looked at Snowder with so frustration.
Since Du Qii looks down on him so much, he felt even more compelled to explain the situation clearly!
TCM is definitely useful!
The accumulation, experintation, and summarization by predecessors over thousands of years are a precious crystallization of dical knowledge!
"Of course I know," Snowder nodded and then looked up at everyone. "TCM inherently lacks scientific reasoning!"
"If I’d been brought in to treat Mr. Du two years ago, he could have lived at least five years!"
As soon as Snowder said this, everyone was shocked. It seed clear that Qiao Yizhen had delayed Du Jingsong’s treatnt. Without him, Mr. Du could have lived longer!
TCM really is a hoax!
"You!"
Qiao Yizhen’s expression changed drastically. He hadn’t expected Snowder to say such things; it was simply too irresponsible.
As a top national doctor, Qiao Yizhen was sure Snowder absolutely knew the entire story. He deliberately said this to suppress TCM.
There’s no "if" in the world. Anyway, it’s impossible to be certain now. Let alone five years, he could say ten years.
This person simply has no dical ethics.
"Big brother, second brother, quickly have this swindler thrown out," Du Qii imdiately mocked.
"That’s right, I never expected him to harm Mr. Du. What a scourge!" Pei Wen echoed in agreent.
The couple’s alternating remarks made Qiao Yizhen’s facial expression gloomy. Though revered as a respectable figure in the TCM community, this was how he was insulted.
Swindler!
If not for his acquaintance with the Du Family, he would have never taken on treating Du Jingsong in the first place!
A determined Qiao Yizhen was about to leave in anger when he heard Du Haotian rebuke, "You two shut up; don’t be rude to Elder Qiao."
"Elder Qiao, I’m sorry. My siblings are immature."
Du Haotian’s apology slightly improved Qiao Yizhen’s mood, thankful soone understood, yet he heard Du Haotian say, "Elder Qiao, for what’s next, let’s leave it to Dr. Snowder."
Elder Qiao’s breath suddenly stalled, his face flushed, as this ant Du Haotian ultimately chose to believe in Snowder.
"Fine, fine, this matter is entirely my fault, and I, Mr. Qiao, won’t involve myself in any more Du Family affairs!" Qiao Yizhen snorted coldly, turning to leave.
Du Haotian was about to say sothing appeasing, but Qiao Yizhen suddenly turned around.
"I still must say, TCM is absolutely useful. Though I, Qiao Yizhen, couldn’t fully cure Du Jingsong, you can call useless, but you cannot insult TCM. I just ntioned that there was one person capable of treating Du Jingsong’s illness!"
Qiao Yizhen’s words were resounding, yet they were t with a mocking smile from Du Qii.
The rest of the Du family also looked at Qiao Yizhen calmly. Indeed, they no longer believed him. Hearing his words now, they saw it as an excuse to save face.
"Hah, swindler!" Pei Wen chid in.
"Enough, don’t argue. The Divine Doctor Ye that Du Bingxin ntioned will arrive soon. With him here, Grandpa’s illness will be no problem. Compared to the Divine Doctor Ye, both Qiao Yizhen and Snowder are trash," Du Tianyang suddenly said, speaking rashly as his carefree self always did.
"What did you say? Fine, I won’t treat Mr. Du’s illness! Find soone else!"
Snowder instantly beca angry, making a motion to leave.
"Du Tianyang, shut your mouth. Do you want to anger Dr. Snowder and endanger your grandfather?" Du Qii, his aunt, imdiately scolded.
She had specifically found an expert, hoping successful treatnt would an more family inheritance.
