But suddenly, Jerry Parker cried out in astonishment, "Of course, why didn't I think of sleeping pills? With the patient's face iron blue from rage, we couldn't discern his mental state at all. That made us overlook this possibility!""Yes, that's it, that must be it!"As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and splashed a basin of ice cold water forcefully onto old Brown's face. This shocking scene left everyone dumbfounded. But what happened next astonished them even more. Old Brown's body shuddered, and incredibly, he slowly opened his eyes before their startled gazes!He was awake!This scene left everyone present dumbfounded. No one had expected that a bowl of cold water could actually wake Old Master Brown. It was far too unexpected! Who could have imagined he would fall into a deep coma simply due to a small sleeping pill?Yet Jason was not surprised at all from the beginning. He had noticed it, but hesitated on whether to save him until he saw how heartbroken Susan was, which pr

"Rejected? Why? I heard yesterday that Natalie had passed the minimum score for Emerald City Middle School, and was even top of her class. Aren't those grades pretty good?" Jason frowned in puzzlement.Although Natalie had not attended school much, she had been homeschooled all this time. Her grades were full marks in every subject, which had left him dumbfounded at the time. She was a genius.Logically, the school should be clamoring to admit her. Emerald City Middle School wouldn't be so foolish, would they? But Lawrence said angrily, "That principal is deliberately antagonizing me, refusing to let Natalie enroll no matter what. One moment he asks for certifications, the next he wants documents, toying me like a monkey.""If I hadn't promised Natalie not to resort to violence easily, I would've punched that fatso long ago."Seeing his furious state, Jason pondered for a moment before saying, "Take me to see what's going on. This is Natalie's dream after all, we have to at least try

"Good ol' Ward, even now you still dare quibble and struggle. I see no need for you to continue as principal. The middle school next door happens to need someone to sweep the grounds. I'll put you in charge starting today. Go repent!" David Flores scoffed angrily.Ignoring Ward's screams and wails, he personally went forward to gather the shredded papers and pieced them back together. Checking, he found the qualifications were indeed sufficient.Thus, under Lawrence's anticipation, David Flores sincerely apologized, "My friend, I misunderstood you. It's our oversight too. I'll personally handle your daughter's admission. On behalf of Emerald City Middle School, I welcome her."Upon hearing this, it was like a huge weight lifted from Lawrence's heart. He was extremely excited, it was finally accomplished. Jason also smiled and nodded. He had promised Natalie back then too. Now that Mr. Flores was handling the paperwork, there would be no issues. As long as Natalie's leg recovered, sh

At the same time, inside the conference hall, the traditional Chinese medicine - Western medicine exchange meeting had already begun. Dean Butler, Dennis Campbell, Jerry Parker, Roger Cox, Stephen Wright, Samuel and others were present. With a sweeping glance, Jason noticed a group of doctors from Metropolis Central looking down on others arrogantly and condescendingly. At this time, Stephen Wright was on stage showcasing the essence of ancient Chinese medicine - acupuncture, inspection, inquiry, palpation, addressing problems from subtle and fundamental levels, bone setting, manipulative techniques, acupuncture and so on. It had to be said, Stephen Wright's knowledge was thorough and his theories perfect. But his practical skills still lacked proficiency, which was also a common problem in Chinese medicine nowadays.Jason listened attentively. If it was up to him, he probably wouldn't be as good as Stephen Wright. But in practical application and innate talent, Jason was streets

Looking at the dispirited Stephen Wright, Jack couldn't help but taunt, "You will always be my stepping stone. You can't even compare to me in Chinese medicine, what more Western medicine? Go back and learn for a few more years. You... lost!""Don't forget our wager just now!""You..."Roger Cox was seething with rage.At this, Stephen Wright collapsed limply to the ground, as if having committed a grave mistake. His face was pale, lips stammering. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't spit it out. How could he possibly insult their ancestors and defile their predecessors?That was something he didn't even dare think about on normal days!But he lost, and lost thoroughly at that. This resounding slap to the face left him at a complete loss on what to do.But just as he was in anguish, a familiar, gentle voice rang out, "Hold on, the competition isn't over yet!""Grandmaster?"Seeing the sudden appearance of a savior, Stephen Wright immediately burst into tears of excitement on
