Everyone in the hospital room applauded involuntarily after Luo Chao finished speaking.

Just then, the obese elderly man who had been lying weakly on the hospital bed, unable to speak, began to struggle frantically.

Luo Chao was drawn to the old man's frantic state and saw his eyes darting around wildly, while the sounds in his throat grew even more urgent than before.

With this one look, Luo Chao understood that this elderly man desperately wanted to speak, but because his body was too weak, he simply couldn't form the words!

So, Luo Chao bent down slightly, bringing his head close to the ear of the obese elderly man and softly asked, "Do you want to talk very badly? If so, nod your head!"

As soon as Luo Chao finished asking, the obese elderly man lying on the hospital bed indeed nodded.

Seeing this, Luo Chao hesitated no longer and suddenly pulled out a silver needle, swiftly piercing it into the man's Adam's apple!

"What are you doing?" The moment Luo Chao inserted the silver needle into the man's Adam's apple, Nicholas Mirotic's voice rang out again.

"What?" Luo Chao's lips curved up slightly, "Of course, it's acupuncture."

"Acupuncture? I've never seen anyone perform acupuncture like that! You stuck such a long silver needle into someone's Adam's apple, and you call that acupuncture? Does acupuncture involve needling the Adam's apple?" Nicholas Mirotic, having some knowledge of ordinary Chinese acupuncture, couldn't help but feel a touch of doubt when he saw Luo Chao going off-script with acupuncture on the man's throat.

"I'm telling you, if you recklessly treat this person and end up killing him, I could accuse you of deliberate murder! Everyone here witnessed this, and they can all testify!" Nicholas Mirotic continued.

"I say, you're getting worried for nothing! Here in Huaxia, none of our doctors have raised any issue with my acupuncture, so why are you, a Western foreigner, so eager to criticize me? And let me tell you, don't think that just because you're from the United States you can speak carelessly here; if you continue to slander me, I could sue you for defamation, you know?"

"Don't bring your American style of careless speech to Huaxia, we Huaxia people are different from you Americans!"

"You Americans like to joke and speak rudely, but we Huaxia people are not like that. We are a serious nation and don't appreciate jokes. I advise you to watch what you say because not every Huaxia person is as easygoing as I am! If you find yourself in trouble, who will you cry to then?"

Luo Chao, unwavering in his moral stance, lashed out at Nicholas Mirotic and his country without uttering a single vulgar word.

And this rebuke expressed the repressed anger of all the Huaxia people present, who silently gave their approval from deep within their hearts to Luo Chao's actions!

If earlier the respect these Huaxia doctors showed to Luo Chao was solely due to Jiang Lianqing, they now truly respected Luo Chao for his words and deeds that moved them deeply, as people often say, it was heart-piercing!

"You... your sophistry!" Nicholas Mirotic was extremely angered by Luo Chao's words, even to the point of blurting out an idiom!

At this moment, as Luo Chao channeled a trace of his energy through the silver needle into the old man's Adam's apple, the elderly man suddenly felt invigorated, and the next moment, he found himself able to speak!

"Shut up!" The moment the elderly man discovered he could speak, his first words were shouted with almost all his strength!

For a moment, everyone present except Luo Chao was stunned into silence by the old man's words that seemed to exude an overpowering aura.

Only Luo Chao understood why these words from the obese elderly man could instantaneously command the whole room.

It was the authority of someone in power!

Like a kitten before a tiger, or a stray dog seeing a bear, it is authority, or rather, the pressure of authority!

In the eyes of ordinary people, this elderly man was the kind of person whose words were worth their weight in gold, so they revered him with an innate awe.

At that moment, Luo Chao realized that the obese elderly man's participation in multi-national medical treatment suggested an extraordinary status!

While Luo Chao was speculating on the identity of this obese elderly man, the man spoke again.

His eyes full of anger were fixed on Nicholas Mirotic, and in a deep voice, he said, "You foreigner, lacking skill yet overly argumentative, Luo Doctor spoke so sensibly yet you had to oppose him!"

"Luo Doctor managed to make me speak with just a needle, while you with millions in equipment couldn't improve my condition a bit, yet secretly demanded exorbitant fees from my family, right?! Let me tell you, don't think that just because I'm lying in bed all day, I know nothing! I, Jiang Tianming, have a mind clearer than anyone!"

After Jiang Tianming finished berating Nicholas Mirotic, Luo Chao thought, given Nicholas Mirotic's character, he would argue back.

Unexpectedly, to Luo Chao's surprise, Nicholas Mirotic, who never yielded to logic, was left speechless after Jiang Tianming's rebuke!

At that moment, Nicholas Mirotic looked down, face covered in sweat, with his eyes filled with fear!

After scolding Nicholas Mirotic, Jiang Tianming spat out a mouthful of yellow-green phlegm right onto Mirotic's expensive American shoes.

Yet, Nicholas Mirotic seemed not to notice, remaining silent, respectfully bowing his head as if reflecting on his own mistake!

This situation genuinely left Luo Chao in shock.

Luo Chao knew that Americans like Nicholas Mirotic, believing in the spirit of freedom, rarely bowed down to social elites, assuming everyone is born equal!

Typical Americans are like this, let alone someone with a hint of elite status like Nicholas Mirotic.

Logically speaking, as a renowned medical scientist, even if the President of the United States came, Nicholas Mirotic wouldn't need to bow and scrape!
