The two young women were the first to accuse, loudly shouting that Doctor Yao was about to hit them. Doctor Yao shook with anger; in all his years of practice, it was the first time he had met such shameless people.

"Little Yao, stop!" Director Liang, the elderly doctor, stood up straight despite the pain and loudly ordered Doctor Yao to halt.

Doctor Yao’s raised hand froze in mid-air. Director Liang had called him Little Yao, not Doctor Yao, which was what he used to call him when he was a student.

"Teacher Liang, but... but they hit you. Someone hit my teacher. If I stand by indifferently, am I still worthy to be your student?" Doctor Yao was both angry and wronged.

Director Liang pushed away the nurse supporting him, his face serious, and said, "If you hit them, you will no longer be my student!"

"Teacher Liang, they’re going too far!" Doctor Yao gritted his teeth. His hand was still raised but hadn’t come down. As a disciple, he felt indescribable resentment seeing his elderly teacher being hit.

"Doctor Yao, remember the oath you took when you joined the profession!" Director Liang solemnly reminded him.

Doctor Yao bit his lip and recited in a low voice, "Regardless of where I am, whether it’s a man or woman, noble or servant, my sole aim is to seek happiness for the patient and to be prudent in my conduct, avoiding any harmful or vile actions, especially not engaging in seduction."

"Whatever I see or hear, whether it involves a professional relationship or not, if I deem it should be kept secret, I am willing to do so. If I strictly adhere to this oath, I pray that the gods grant me supreme honor in life and medicine. If I break it, may the heavens and gods punish me."

Director Liang nodded, seriously saying, "An oath isn’t just a slogan; it’s something you practice and protect with your lifelong actions. Do you think your current actions are what a doctor should do?"

"I..." Doctor Yao could only muster a single word before falling silent: "Sigh..." He sighed and finally lowered his raised hand.

Seeing Doctor Yao lower his hand, the two young women showed expressions of victory mixed with disdain.

"Coward, hit me if you dare..." The faces of the two women were filled with derision.

Aside from Director Liang, all the doctors and nurses present wore unpleasant expressions, feeling very aggrieved, especially the three male doctors whose fists clenched and unclenched repeatedly, suppressing the urge to explode if not for Director Liang’s restraint.

"Are you even a man, coward..." The two women mocked again.

Xu Feibai watched the scene unfolding before him and shook his head, "Whether it’s five hundred years ago or five hundred years later, humans are still the same, unchanged at all."

"Do you have any paper?" Lin Tian reached out, expressionless.

"Do you need it for the bathroom? I only have this A4 paper for attendance. Make do with it." Xu Feibai, unsure of Lin Tian’s intentions, pulled out a sheet of white paper from his pocket.

Lin Tian snatched it and quickly tore it into pieces, then rolled them into small paper balls.

"What are you going to do?" Xu Feibai asked with a frown.

Lin Tian didn’t answer. Instead, he wedged the paper balls between his fingers and launched them simultaneously, producing a series of "popping" sounds that struck the backs of the two young women’s knees, causing them to kneel with a thud in front of the old doctor.

"Jingxin, Huixiang, you..." Liu Yuansi was baffled. Just moments ago, they were fiercely cursing, yet now they knelt down unexpectedly. The doctors and nurses were also stunned, and the two bodyguards glanced at Zhao Xiangyuan, unsure whether they should help the women up.

"Why am I kneeling?" The two women exchanged confused glances and tried to stand.

Lin Tian flicked his fingers again, sending another silent paper ball towards their backs, causing them to involuntarily bow in submission while trying to rise.

The crowd was once again stunned. Given the arrogant attitudes of the two women, how could they possibly kneel and bow?

"Heh, you’re really fond of meddling, but that hidden weapon skill of yours is quite something. Compared to you, those ninjas are like children." Xu Feibai chuckled.

Lin Tian clapped his hands casually and said, "Just a minor skill."

Despite his words, in shooting the paper balls, he had employed the acupoint technique from the Nine Needle Technique, hitting certain acupoints from a distance to cause involuntary actions.

Even modern medicine can explain it as a neural arc response; even after death, specific electrical stimuli can make a body’s nerves react, causing it to stand and make simple movements.

"Liu Yuansi, why are you dazing off? Aren’t you going to pull your friends up? Don’t you feel embarrassed with the kind of friends you associate with? Hmph." Zhao Xiangyuan snorted coldly at Liu Yuansi, clearly displeased.

Liu Yuansi hurried to pull the two women up. As they regained their senses and shifted their gaze to Doctor Yao, anger and humiliation clouded their faces, "It must be you pulling some trick. We’ll report you and have you stripped of your white coat!"

"Stop arguing." Zhao Xiangyuan barked and signaled the bodyguards to clear the way, attempting to force his way into the isolation room.

Director Liang blocked the way again and simultaneously signaled to the nurse behind him. The quick-thinking young nurse ran over to lock the isolation room door, which couldn’t be opened without a password.

"Director Liang, don’t test my limits, or else even your hospital’s director might get dragged into this," Zhao Xiangyuan coldly threatened.

Director Liang patiently explained, "Our preliminary diagnosis indicates extremely contagious parasites, and we’ve sent biological samples for testing. We’ll have the results soon. Until safety measures are established, you can’t go in or take the patient away."

"What nonsense are you spewing! That’s my son, not your patient!" Zhao Xiangyuan fumed.

"Director Liang is right; you can’t go in." Just as Zhao Xiangyuan was about to have the bodyguards force their way in, a male voice came from the direction of the elevator.

Lin Tian turned to see a group approaching, led by Professor He, who had just spoken.

However, upon seeing the people trailing behind the professor, Lin Tian was at a loss for words; not only had Xiao Manxuan come, but He Xiaofei, Qiao Xiaoyi, and Mu Binglan had also arrived. They all waved at Lin Tian.

Seeing Xiao Manxuan, the two young women were immediately filled with jealousy because the little girl’s beauty was levels above theirs.

"Brother Liu, who is that woman?" Jingxin, the short-skirted woman, asked coyly.

"That’s the woman Brother Zhao fancies, Xiao Manxuan," Liu Yuansi replied, causing another wave of jealousy in the two women. But before they could say anything, Professor He’s group approached.

"Who are you?" Zhao Xiangyuan frowned, asking.

Before Professor He could respond, a man who looked like an assistant stepped forward and whispered, "Chairman, this is Professor He Jianhua, head of Jinghua University’s Life Sciences Laboratory. Our company invited him to be a biotechnology consultant last time, but he refused."
