"No... no, Mr. Chen, you absolutely misunderstood, I didn't say anything like that at all..."
But before Liu Feiyu could finish speaking, someone immediately exposed his lie. Little Fatty spoke up, "Hmph! Mr. Chen, he was just questioning Professor Xu's capabilities, and even said that I was a shill hired by Professor Xu, baselessly smearing our innocence!"
Chen Hai's gaze turned icy in an instant as he said indifferently, "Teacher Liu, is that so?"
Sweat immediately started flowing down Liu Feiyu's forehead, and his back was soaked with sweat. He slightly bent his body forward, involuntarily took a half step back, and then said in a low voice, "Mr. Chen, what I said just now was indeed a mistake, I shouldn't have spoken to you like that, I was wrong..."
In the face of Xu Hao, whose status was even higher than Chen Hai's, he was genuinely afraid.
If he couldn't even provoke Chen Hai, how could he provoke Xu Hao?
Xu Hao smiled lightly, "Teacher Liu, you are not wrong at all, academic discussions should always be encouraged, right?"
"Yes... they should be, but..." Liu Feiyu stammered, not knowing what else to say. He understood that Xu Hao was probably not going to let him off the hook.
"Since Teacher Liu has said so, why don't we continue the academic discussion, how about that?" Xu Hao continued, all the while taking out his Silver Needles from the box with a smile, "Teacher Liu, come, let me treat your insomnia."
Seeing the long silver needles in Xu Hao's hands, glinting with a cold light, Liu Feiyu was instantly so frightened that he almost lost his soul, retreating and begging for mercy, "Professor Xu, I was wrong, please spare me, I don't want acupuncture, I am really afraid of pain!"
He had spoken out against Xu Hao just now only in opposition, but did he truly dare to let Xu Hao insert needles into him?
He just thought, how many would dare to insert needles into their head?
He merely wanted to scare Xu Hao, to achieve his goal by frightening him, but Xu Hao was not intimidated in the slightest; instead, he insisted on administering the treatment!
Given Xu Hao's status and position, Liu Feiyu felt that even if Xu Hao inadvertently killed him during acupuncture, it would likely just be considered a medical accident, and Xu Hao would only need to compensate with some money, and that would be the end of it.
So Liu Feiyu didn't dare to take that risk!
He didn't dare to gamble with his life!
Seeing Liu Feiyu so frightened, Xu Hao found it a bit dull and waved his hand, "Since you don't want to discuss academics anymore, then you can leave."
Liu Feiyu, as if granted amnesty, hurriedly fled the classroom.
At this point, Little Fatty spit in Liu's direction, disdainfully saying, "Pah! What garbage! I dare to undergo acupuncture from Professor Xu, but you don't have the courage. With your cowardly attitude, you still aspire to become a professor? Dream on!"
Liu Feiyu seethed with anger inside but didn't dare to retort, scurrying away with his tail between his legs.
Seeing the matter resolved, Chen Hai smiled and said, "Divine Doctor Xu, I'll go and sit at the back to listen to the class then."
Xu Hao nodded slightly, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Chen."
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Chen Hai made his way to the back row, sat down, and took out his phone, seemingly ready to record the content of Xu Hao's lecture.
Xu Hao smiled and did not object; otherwise, it would be quite disrespectful to Tiannan's number one boss. Moreover, he noticed Chu Yunlong was among Chen Hai's company. The latest chapters are always available first on *.
For the entire class, Chen Hai and others stayed to listen to Xu Hao.
Yet, teachers from other faculties were confused - why hadn't Mr. Chen and his group come yet?
Many lecturers remained tense throughout their own classes, fearing that Chen Hai and the others would arrive and they would not have done a good job.
However, up until the class ended, Chen Hai and his group had not stepped away from Xu Hao's classroom for even a moment!
"Ding ling ling! Ding ling ling!"
The bell rang for the end of class, and Xu Hao stopped lecturing amidst the reluctant gazes of the students, saying, "Class is dismissed! You may all leave on your own now."
But, not a single person wanted to leave.
Chu Yunlong and Chen Hai exchanged a few words in low voices, and then the two of them stood up and walked toward Xu Hao, with Ji Feng and others quickly following.
"Divine Doctor Xu, may I have a word with you alone? Actually, even if I didn't run into you here today, I would have sought you out," Chu Yunlong got straight to the point.
Xu Hao took hold of Anna, who was bouncing up towards him, and said, "Is it about your daughter? If so, then there's no need to talk. Your daughter is too precious, I can't afford to treat her."
The crowd was immediately stunned, Ji Feng especially stood frozen in his tracks, even forgetting to move forward.
Xu Hao had just publicly rejected Chu Yunlong's request!
Chu Yunlong's daughter suffered from a chronic disease, incurable, which was common knowledge among Huadu's medical community. Did Chu Yunlong believe that Xu Hao could cure his daughter?
But how could anyone be sure just from this one class?
It seemed likely then that Chen Hai had recommended him.
Chen Hai quickly spoke up, "Divine Doctor Xu, I am also aware of the incident with Chu Xiaoxiao. That young lady must have been freshly awake and didn't know how to speak properly. She offended you at the time, but after all, she is a patient, and now only you can cure her."
