Gu Mang was dressed in all black yet across from her was a powerful doctor dressed in a clean white coat. She was using highly technical terms. Some of the doctors could not understand her.
Lin Shuang crossed her arms and leaned against the door frame like she was enjoying herself. Joston and Noelle looked at them with a sullen look.
The famous doctors had never been reprimanded like that before, especially not in front of the president. Giving the First Lady the wrong treatment… Did this person want them dead?!
A few of the doctors who had some understanding of Chinese medicine spoke up politely. “All of our treatment is backed by data and we speak based on facts. We do not misuse our medication. Additionally, Madam’s condition was always under control, it’s just that it was never fully cured.”
His words were meant to inform everyone that even if they were not successful, they had done a lot of hard work.
“Just that?” Gu Mang repeated these two words and laughed lightly. She narrowed her eyes. “May I ask, if you are unsure of the cause of the illness, are you actually treating her or causing more illnesses?”
The doctor frowned and his tone became lower. “Miracle Doctor, do you think that you are treating her? Don’t be so sure. You have only identified her issues, no one knows what the results are going to be.”
If she could not heal the First Lady, they would surely tarnish the Miracle Doctor’s reputation personally!
Gu Mang raised an eyebrow and there was some sense of obnoxiousness in it. She nodded and took out a post-it note from her pocket to write down the medicine’s recipe.
It was in another handwriting that was way uglier than the one she had used before.
After two minutes, she handed the note to Noelle with two fingers. “Decanted in water and taken orally, once a day.”
Noelle lowered her head and looked at the recipe in her hand.
Scutellaria, Coptis, Pueraria lobata, Angelica, Poria, Pinellia ginger… She had never heard of these herbs.
Gu Mang looked at Joston. “I will return in two days.”
Joston nodded and ordered Sen Te, “Send her off.”
Sen Te bowed respectfully. “Yes.”
Noelle thought for a while and gave the recipe to Joston. “Dad, I shall send the Miracle Doctor off personally.”
Joston looked at her and hummed.
…
Sen Te led the way and everyone followed him out of the President’s House.
Noelle turned sideways towards Gu Mang. “Miracle Doctor, you mentioned that the presidential doctors caused my mother to get sicker. May I ask if you have any evidence?”
Gu Mang looked at her and said in a calm tone, “They did not figure out the real cause and she took too much medication which harmed her original state.”
Noelle nodded. “Is this an example of why Chinese medicine is more useful than Western Medicine? You were able to find out what the problem was with pulse-checking when the medical instruments were unable to.”
Hearing this, Gu Mang narrowed her eyes.
The President’s daughter was rather interesting. Was she setting up a trap for Gu Mang to fall into?
The two sides had been arguing for hundreds of years. If the case succeeded and everyone heard of it, it would just create new resentment between the two sides. Also, she would be implicated in causing drama. Practitioners of Chinese medicine would treat her as hope incarnate and Western Medicine would treat her as an enemy. Were they forcing her onto the global stage?
Seeing that the person in front of her was not speaking, Noelle was about to speak again.
Just then, Gu Mang answered, “Chinese or Western, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that it solves the problem.”
Hearing that, Noelle’s eyes shifted slightly and she smiled. “You are right, Miracle Doctor.”
…
After Noelle saw them off at the entrance to the President’s House, Sen Te sent the two of them to the security gates.
Black Eagle’s car was waiting in the same place she had left him.
“Goodbye to the both of you.” Sen Te bowed slightly. He was well-mannered and polite.
Lin Shuang smiled and walked towards the black sedan with Gu Mang.
She pulled open the door to the passenger seat and when she got in, she asked, “Have you cleared all the memory from the surveillance cameras?”
Black Eagle raised his eyebrow. “Don’t worry. Other than Arctic Fox and the Hacker M, I guarantee that there is no one else who can recover the footage.”
Lin Shuang nodded wordlessly. Indeed, one shouldn’t know too many secrets.
