Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 919: Chapter 919: Questioning

Bai Xiao knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

Vice Principal Zhao opened the door from inside and immediately greeted Bai Xiao with a big smile, "Come, come. Bai, hurry in. Professor Xue is looking for you."

Liu Hongmin and Vice Principal Zhao locked eyes, and sparks flew.

Their rivalry had reached a fever pitch.

Dr. Xue immediately stood up enthusiastically as soon as he saw Bai Xiao, "Come, come, Doctor Bai, quickly come in. Mr. Smith and Doctor Mike are very interested in understanding the poisoning incident from that day. They find the wonders of acupuncture deeply mysterious and want you to help clarify their doubts."

He pulled Bai Xiao straight toward Mr. Smith and Doctor Mike.

Standing near them was a translator who spoke Chinese, a refined-looking man wearing glasses, studying the young woman in front of him through his transparent lenses.

"Mr. Smith, the leading surgeon in America, specializes in brain surgery and suturing techniques. He is unquestionably a top-tier talent, with very few people capable of surpassing him in this field nowadays."

Bai Xiao shook hands with him. Mr. Smith was a fifty-year-old man, certainly a dashing gentleman of his age.

"This is Mike, an expert in cardiology. The two of them together are virtually unrivaled in the field of heart surgery. They’ve successfully collaborated on numerous occasions, the most notable being simultaneous surgeries for dual heart transplants—a groundbreaking achievement. And here’s the Doctor Bai you were eager to meet."

Mr. Smith was undoubtedly an arrogant old man. As soon as the handshake with Bai Xiao was over, he began questioning her without any reservations. noveldrama

"Doctor Bai, I’ve heard your acupuncture techniques are quite renowned. However, as far as I know, Traditional Chinese Medicine’s acupuncture and Western surgery are completely incomparable. We surgeons specialize in solving challenging cases, and acupuncture cannot possibly cure a case of heart disease. This isn’t just my personal opinion but a factual statement—there is no record in medical history of Traditional Chinese Medicine using acupuncture to treat external injuries.

Therefore, I consider the detoxification you performed on the delegation member that day to be nothing more than sheer luck. Of course, this isn’t meant as an insult to you personally; I only believe that the toxin in question wasn’t potent enough to be fatal, which left you an opening to intervene. If it had been a poison like potassium cyanide, even Western medicine might struggle to save the patient.

We are disappointed by China’s casual use of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the lack of accountability in Western medicine practices. If you don’t have a convincing argument for us, there’s no need to compete at all, as China’s blending of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western medicine is regrettable."

He also strongly disapproved of rash interventions for patients, especially from someone working across disciplines.

Bai Xiao, whether in terms of age or experience, was utterly unconvincing.

In the eyes of Smith and Mike, if Bai Xiao were a white-haired elder, they might at least believe in years of accumulated experience and consider that Traditional Chinese Medicine might have some secret techniques that could temporarily address these problems.

But the young woman before them seemed to be just over twenty years old.

Even in their Western medical field, someone of her age could hardly be more than an apprentice—likely a novice still undergoing internship training. How could they entrust a surgical case to someone like this?

They had already formed a misunderstanding about the Doctor Bai they were meeting today.

To them, it felt like China was playing games.

Bai Xiao smiled.

The arrogance of these two was certainly out of the ordinary, stemming from their sense of honor in their own domain, which led them to look down on everyone else.

But these two had their virtues as well.

They were the kind of people who genuinely respected those with real ability.

If you could prove your expertise and impress them, they would sincerely admire you.
