Urban Genius Divine Doctor

Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Dumbfounded

"That’s not it!" Wang Chenning shook his head. "I’m not that despicable!"

"Then... you want me to work myself to death for you?"

Wang Chenning gave a noncommittal smile, neither confirming nor denying it.

The next day was Wednesday. In the morning, Wang Chenning had two periods of *Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis*, and in the afternoon, he had to go to the First Affiliated Hospital for a half-day expert consultation session.

After a few consultation sessions, coupled with the television station’s publicity, Wang Chenning’s reputation had already become quite renowned. The moment his appointments were released, they were gone in a flash.

With only twenty slots available across the two hospitals and tens of thousands of people vying for them, demand naturally far outstripped supply.

After Wang Chenning finished his morning classes, Lu Yuanshan came to find him again, asking if he could see a few more patients and add another day of expert consultations.

"There are countless patients in the world. Even if I worked twenty-four hours a day without rest, I could only save a handful of them!" Wang Chenning politely declined Lu Yuanshan’s request with a smile. "I’d rather focus on my work as an educator and train a few more outstanding disciples!"

Lu Yuanshan was instantly overjoyed. "In that case, would you take on another course, *Acupuncture and Moxibustion*?"

"I won’t!" Wang Chenning refused. "But I can take on graduate students for acupuncture. How about this: I’ll personally select a few undergraduate students with good aptitude and have them study acupuncture with me. Once they’ve completed their training, the university can just grant them a master’s or doctoral degree!"

"Deal!" Lu Yuanshan’s face lit up with a grin. "Let’s do this, then. Starting next semester, you can take on graduate students. You choose the candidates yourself, and the university won’t interfere. You can also decide what kind of degree to award them. How does that sound?"

"Fine by me!" Seeing how decisive Lu Yuanshan was, Wang Chenning didn’t beat around the bush, but he did add another condition. "However, the university hasn’t actually given me the qualifications to supervise graduate students!"

"That’s simple!" Lu Yuanshan chuckled. "We’ll just give you the title of Doctoral Advisor. Whatever title you need, I’ll get it for you!"

"Why do I feel like I’ve walked into a trap?"

"How could that be?" Lu Yuanshan quickly shook his head. "You’re working yourself to the bone for the revival of Huaxia’s traditional medicine. No one will ever forget you for it!"

"Alright! Worst case, I get duped and still help the other guy count his money!"

Lu Yuanshan seized the opportunity to make another request, hoping Wang Chenning would attend the Huaxia Traditional Medicine Annual Conference happening the day after tomorrow.

Wang Chenning replied with a smile, "Yang Xiaofei also invited me to attend, and I already accepted her invitation!"

"You brat, you really know how to disrespect me!" Lu Yuanshan was stunned for a moment, then cursed, "I invite you and you refuse, but when Yang Xiaofei invites you, you accept immediately. Are pretty girls the only thing you see?"

"Isn’t a man’s greatest hobby beautiful women?" Wang Chenning said cheerfully. "You’re an old man. You really dare to compete with a beautiful woman over who has more ’face’?"

"Bah!" Lu Yuanshan looked at Wang Chenning with disdain. "Aren’t you still just a little virgin? Twenty-six years old and you’ve never even been with a woman. What gives you the right to mock me!"

"Tch, I’m practicing a celibate Cultivation Technique. Otherwise, how would my Martial Arts and medical skills be even better than my grandfather’s?"

Lu Yuanshan was taken aback. "For real?"

"Of course it’s real!" Wang Chenning nodded very seriously. "I’ve already mastered the celibate technique, so I can’t improve any further with it. Next, I have to practice a different kind of Cultivation Technique!"

Lu Yuanshan’s eyes went wide. "That... what’s it called... ’harvesting yin to supplement yang’? Or a Dual Cultivation Skill?"

"I’m not telling you!" Wang Chenning said with a mysterious expression.

"My good nephew, teach me, please!" Lu Yuanshan said, rubbing his hands together and chuckling. "How about it? I’ll practice with you!"

"Get lost!" Wang Chenning retorted with a laugh. "You’re an old man, and you still have such a dirty mind. All those years of ’advanced education’ were completely wasted on you!"

Lu Yuanshan wiped his face and took two steps back. "This is a classic case of ’the magistrates can light fires, but the common folk can’t even light their lamps’!"

Wang Chenning ignored him and went to the cafeteria to eat lunch by himself.

What Wang Chenning didn’t expect was that by the afternoon, his profile on the university’s official website had changed.

Before his existing list of honors, the title of "Doctoral Advisor" had been added.

Subsequently, an announcement was posted on the university’s internal forum stating that starting next semester, Wang Chenning would be taking on master’s and doctoral students in Acupuncture and Moxibustion. The announcement said that Wang Chenning would personally select a few students with exceptional talent from the undergraduate body to be his graduate students, and those fortunate enough to be chosen would have the opportunity to learn various miraculous acupuncture techniques.

This announcement instantly caused a huge stir within the university.

Those who already defied Lu Yuanshan and didn’t recognize Wang Chenning’s abilities began cursing that there must be some shady business involved. They threatened to report Lu Yuanshan to the higher-ups for nepotism and to expose Wang Chenning for his fraudulent academic credentials.

However, the students were overjoyed when they saw the news. Countless people were eagerly rubbing their hands together, wanting to apply for Wang Chenning’s graduate program to learn his miraculous acupuncture techniques that could supposedly bring the dead back to life.

Many students who had Wang Chenning’s WeChat sent him messages one after another, asking for more information and expressing their hope that he would take them on as disciples to teach them his miraculous acupuncture techniques.

Wang Chenning didn’t reply to a single person. He just posted a message to his Moments, saying that if he did take on graduate students next semester, candidates would be admitted based on regular assessments. He said he didn’t care about exam scores, only whether a student had the natural aptitude for it.

He also told everyone that if they became his graduate student, there was no guarantee they would graduate in three or four years, because mastering even one of his acupuncture techniques could take many years. He urged the students to choose carefully.

In the afternoon, Wang Chenning went to the First Affiliated Hospital for his consultation session as scheduled.

Although scalpers were reselling his appointments for over a hundred thousand yuan each, those with milder conditions still couldn’t get a slot. The patients who had the opportunity to be treated by him were all people for whom other treatments had failed to produce any significant results.

Without exception, after being treated by him, these patients showed significant improvement.

The immediate results were the best form of word-of-mouth advertising. After receiving his treatment, every patient looked as if they were moved to tears of gratitude.

These patients and their families also became the best promoters of his deeds.

"Don’t look at the ads, look at the results." For these patients with difficult and complex illnesses, being able to alleviate their symptoms and see a hope for a cure would naturally lead them to treat you like a god.

What surprised Wang Chenning was that Luo Yuqing had actually come to the hospital to find him.

Just as he finished with his tenth patient and was washing his hands to get ready to leave, the pretty little nurse from the waiting area led in Luo Yuqing, who was wearing a pair of sunglasses.

"Director Wang, this lady said she has an appointment with you and that you would definitely see her!" the little nurse said with a troubled expression after leading Luo Yuqing in. "So I... I brought her in!"

She didn’t mention that she was completely overwhelmed by Luo Yuqing’s aura and didn’t dare refuse to bring in this woman whose looks and figure made her feel inadequate, and whose presence was far from ordinary.

"It’s fine. She’s my relative. She’s planning to take me to dinner tonight." Wang Chenning smiled and gestured for the pretty little nurse to leave.

After the pretty little nurse left, Luo Yuqing took off her sunglasses, walked over to Wang Chenning, and said with an unfriendly expression, "If I hadn’t come to the hospital to intercept you, were you planning to stand me up again?"

"How could I?" Wang Chenning shook his head. "I definitely wouldn’t forget what I promised you today!"

Luo Yuqing rolled her eyes. "Then why didn’t you reply to my messages?"

"I haven’t looked at my phone all afternoon. Where would I find the time!" Wang Chenning took his phone out of the drawer, unlocked the screen, and found that he had received quite a few messages, including many from Luo Yuqing.

He tapped it open and was instantly dumbfounded.

This woman had actually asked him whether to prepare Okamoto or Durex for tonight!
