Chapter 2489: Chapter 2280: Almost Mistook Mr. Song for a Fraudster (Part 2)
"Yes, Mr. Song, we almost mistook you for a fraud because of this misunderstanding!" Sun Hongmian said to Song Xiaodong.
"Teacher, did anyone dare to question you just now?" He Wenbai’s face suddenly turned serious after listening to what everyone said. He respectfully approached Song Xiaodong and lowered his head to ask.
"No, there was just some misunderstanding with the esteemed acupuncture medicine experts present here, no major conflicts," Song Xiaodong casually replied to He Wenbai.
"So, this means someone indeed showed disrespect towards the teacher?" He Wenbai stood up again, scanning everyone present with a gaze full of authority and anger.
All those present felt a chill run through them from head to toe as they met He Wenbai’s angry gaze. This old man, usually amiable and kind, suddenly became irritable when the topic turned to this young man named Song.
"Mr. Song is my mentor, his grace towards me is as heavy as a mountain. I, He Wenbai, have never spoken a harsh word to any of my colleagues present, but today I must say this: everyone present, if anyone dares to disrespect my mentor, I will immediately expel you from this acupuncture medicine seminar, and as long as I am around, there will be no place for you in Minghe and Ningjian Province!"
Chapter 2281 Old He
He Wenbai didn’t know who had angered Song Xiaodong, so he fiercely threatened all the acupuncture experts present with his gaze.
He Wenbai is regarded in the Traditional Chinese Medicine community as someone whose word is law. Upon hearing such words from He Wenbai on behalf of this young man named Song, the acupuncture experts present were scared into silence. If it weren’t for their age and experience, they might have wet themselves on the spot.
"Old He, there’s no need for such measures. After all, they don’t know me, and everyone present here is an elder, older than me, so it’s normal for them to have some misunderstandings about me. Let’s not pursue this matter further. We’re here to discuss knowledge, not to fight, and certainly not to build factions." Song Xiaodong said to He Wenbai.
The acupuncture medicine experts present were even more surprised by Song Xiaodong’s words to He Wenbai.
Who was He Wenbai but a reclusive high achiever? Even in retirement, several hospitals still pay him just to have him in a titular role. He is highly respected in the Traditional Chinese Medicine field, with no one of higher seniority than him, but this young man named Song casually calls him Old He.
"Who exactly is this Song? Is his seniority higher than He Wenbai?"
"He actually dares to call He Wenbai Old He?"
"It’s not that hard to understand. As He Wenbai said, this Song Xiaodong is his teacher. Not calling him Little He is already giving him a lot of face!"
The acupuncture experts began to whisper among themselves.
"Old He, since you’ve come today, why don’t you take over teaching them? You’re older and more experienced, they trust you more than me. There’s nothing I can do if they don’t believe me. Today I have a special patient to attend to, so I’ll take them home first; this patient is quite complicated. We’ll leave now." Song Xiaodong said to He Wenbai.
"All right, all right, Teacher, you go ahead. I’ll come to visit once I’m done here." He Wenbai replied to Song Xiaodong.
"Mm, Meiyu, will you come to my house with Uncle? Uncle will treat your illness." Song Xiaodong lowered his head and spoke to Chen Meiyu.
"Okay." Chen Meiyu agreed readily.
"Good girl!" Song Xiaodong praised Chen Meiyu.
"Big Sis, Meiyu’s situation is indeed a bit special, how about you come to my house with Meiyu to stay temporarily? Once I’ve cured her illness, you can leave." Song Xiaodong stood up again to speak to Chen Meiyu’s mother.
"There’s no need to trouble Mr. Song with accommodation; as long as Mr. Song can cure my Meiyu, that’s all that matters!" Chen Meiyu’s mother said to Song Xiaodong.
"Then let’s go." Song Xiaodong took Chen Meiyu and her mother and left the acupuncture seminar’s conference room.
In the conference room, Guo Xilong stood dazedly. He Wenbai glanced around at everyone and said to the acupuncture experts present: "Since Mr. Song has already left, you should continue your discussions. My teacher wants me to stay and talk about Rejuvenation Acupuncture. You’ve repeatedly offended my teacher, but he doesn’t mind and hopes I’ll stay to lecture you. So today I’ll tell you what ’a missed opportunity never returns’ means. Please continue your discussions; I, Mr. He, shall take my leave."
After speaking, He Wenbai left.
"Mr. He? Professor He! Don’t just leave like that! We’re waiting for you to share acupuncture techniques and theories with us!" Sun Hongmian said, about to chase after him.
"Indeed, Mr. He, we’re all eagerly looking! How can you leave so abruptly!" Qian Hengbo followed out.
"Mr. He, Mr. Song did urge you to give us a lecture!"
