Chapter 160
Hearing the young master's desperate plea for her to do something to save his father, Dr. Silver looked at him with sympathy but also with honest realism about the situation.“Well, like I said before, his condition has gotten beyond normal medical help,” Dr. Silver explained carefully, her voice gentle but firm. “What I can offer is maybe... miraculously 50-50 chances, by the way.”She paused to let them understand what she was saying. “So it isn't something that I can confidently say 'I can do it and do it properly' with guaranteed results.”Her tone became more serious as she continued. “But it is 50-50. It is either you literally accept that it is 50-50 - which means he might survive or he might not survive - or you just let things go like that without trying anything.”Dr. Silver's honest words hung in the air like a heavy weight. She was giving them a choice, but it wasn't a good choice either way.At that moment, even Dr. Kai couldn't believe his own ears as he heard Dr. Sil

Upon hearing what Dr. Silver had just said about David being the one who could save the patriarch, all eyes in the room immediately turned toward David with shocked expressions.Then the young master's uncle started laughing loudly. It was not a happy laugh - it was a mocking, insulting laugh that filled the entire room.The uncle's laughter was harsh and cruel, showing he thought Dr. Silver had just made a ridiculous joke.He pointed his finger directly at David with disbelief written all over his face.“Do you mean this David standing right here?” the uncle asked between laughs, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “Or is there somebody else, another David with the same name that we don't know about?”His mocking tone continued. “There must be another David somewhere that you're talking about, because it absolutely cannot be this David that I'm seeing here in front of me.”The uncle shook his head while still laughing. “This person that I'm looking at right now doesn't have to be the o

But still, despite sensing something unusual about David's energy, Dr. Kai didn't say anything out loud. He just kept his observations and thoughts to himself, choosing to remain silent and watch how the situation would unfold.At that moment, the young master himself finally spoke up with deep disappointment and frustration in his voice.“Dr. Silver, we all look up to you with the highest respect,” The young master said, his tone carrying both reverence and disbelief. “Everybody in this country literally looks up to you as the greatest doctor, and even people in the entire world recognize your abilities.”His voice became more emotional as he continued. “But it is so completely disheartening and shocking if you are literally telling me that the only chance of survival for my father depends on this man over there.”The young master pointed directly at David with obvious contempt and rejection. “If that is truly the case, then I will absolutely never allow such a thing to literally

At that moment, hearing Dr. Kai's unexpected defense of David and his suggestion that the family should give David a chance, the entire Black family immediately turned their angry attention toward Dr. Kai himself.Their faces showed shock and betrayal that their own family doctor was now speaking against their decision.“What the hell is he talking about?” the young master's uncle demanded angrily, his voice rising with disbelief. “Has Dr. Kai lost his mind too?”The uncle's eyes were wide with confusion and anger. “Does he literally see something special in this good-for-nothing guy that the rest of us are missing?”Then the whole family pointed accusingly at David, their voices joining together in harsh criticism.“Well, he's definitely not the miracle worker that Dr. Kai apparently thinks he is!” the young master said with disgust. “He's merely a fraud and a fake who somehow fooled both Dr. Silver and now Dr. Kai!”The sister joined in with equal contempt. “We are just completely
Chapter 164
Immediately, having worked through all these calculating thoughts in his mind and seeing how perfectly this situation could serve his hidden agenda, the young master's uncle then spoke up to address the whole family with a complete change in his position.The uncle's voice suddenly became thoughtful and reasonable, completely different from his mocking tone just moments earlier.“Wait, everyone. Let me say something important here,” the uncle began, drawing everyone's attention to him. “Looking at this situation more carefully, it seems that Dr. Silver is actually very certain and confident that this young man David can do something remarkable to save my brother.”His tone carried newfound respect that surprised the family members who had just heard him laughing at David earlier.“And we must remember that it's not just anyone making this claim about David's abilities,” the uncle continued with emphasis. “It is Dr. Silver herself - the most respected and accomplished doctor in this
Chapter 165
At that moment, seeing David's calm rejection and watching him walk away despite their reluctant agreement, the young master got extremely angry and lost all control of his emotions.His face turned red with rage as he couldn't believe what had just happened in front of his entire family.“What the hell is wrong with him?!” The young master shouted furiously, his voice echoing through the room. “ Do you see us as fools or what is going on here?!”His anger was boiling over as he pointed toward David's retreating figure. “What sort of complete disrespect is this behavior from him?!”The young master's voice rose even higher with indignation and disbelief. “We literally have just agreed to allow him to touch our father and examine him, and yet he is declining our generous offer like it means nothing!”His tone was filled with outrage and wounded pride. “Who the hell does he think he is to act this way toward our family?!”The young master couldn't understand how someone of David's a

At that moment, after hearing Dr. Silver's passionate plea and her reasoning about proving himself to the disrespectful family, David paused near the door and considered her words carefully.Then David turned slightly toward Dr. Silver and spoke with his characteristic calm and thoughtful manner.“Well, Silver, you literally know that I'm not the kind of person who goes back on his words once I've made a decision,” David said with quiet dignity, reminding her of his usual firm principles.“I had literally told them that I'm not going to examine or treat anyone, and I meant what I said.”“But then again, hearing what you just said to me about the situation and your perspective on this whole matter...” David continued, his tone showing he was genuinely considering her arguments.Then his expression became more thoughtful as he weighed her words. “I feel as if maybe I should just do this treatment - but not for the reasons you mentioned about proving anything to these people.”David's v

The young master's uncle then spoke up to address the family with a tone that sounded reasonable and supportive, though his hidden motivations remained concealed behind his words. “Uh, well, do we really have any other choice at this point if not to literally allow David to do whatever he wants to do?” the uncle said his voice carried a tone of practical acceptance. “Like everybody has already said before, it is Dr. Silver who literally trusts him and vouches for his abilities.” The uncle's words seemed to encourage the family to go along with the plan. “So David should do his examination and treatment. There's nothing wrong with letting him try at this point.” His tone suggested he was being the voice of reason, though secretly he was hoping David would fail spectacularly. At that moment, after hearing the uncle's seemingly supportive words, David didn't say anything in response or acknowledgment. However, David's sharp eyes briefly met the young master's uncle's gaze,

At that moment, hearing the young master's explosive outburst and interference with David's treatment, Dr. Silver reached her absolute breaking point with the Black family's disrespectful behavior.Dr. Silver then shouted back at the young master with fierce anger and authority that commanded everyone's immediate attention.“I have kept quiet long enough about your family's terrible attitude!” Dr. Silver yelled with righteous fury in her voice. “With the way you people are acting and treating David, you are literally going to make both of us just leave this place right now!”“What kind of complete disrespect and absolutely useless behavior is this from all of you?!”Dr. Silver's tone became even more intense and accusatory. “What the hell is wrong with your entire family that you can't show basic courtesy to someone trying to help you?!”Her voice rose with indignation at their ingratitude. “I, Dr. Silver, personally recommended somebody to literally treat your dying father, and in

At that moment, hearing what Dr. Kai had just said about the legendary acupuncture technique, David maintained his focused silence and didn't respond or confirm anything about the methods he was using.David's expression remained calm and professional as he concentrated entirely on his treatment, neither acknowledging nor denying Dr. Kai's recognition of the ancient technique.Dr. Silver also didn't say anything in response to Dr. Kai's excited observation, choosing instead to watch David's work with quiet confidence and respect for his expertise.Her silence showed that she trusted David completely and didn't feel the need to explain or defend his methods to anyone in the room.Then that was when Dr. Kai literally realized with growing certainty that he was witnessing something truly extraordinary and historically significant.His medical knowledge and years of experience told him that he was indeed seeing the legendary acupuncture techniques that had been completely lost to modern m
