"Oh, really? I thought I had truly seen God just now. Dear Chen, thank you for saving me…" Madam Rosa seemed to regain some consciousness upon hearing this. Though she was taken aback by Chen Fei's youth, she still wanted to thank him with all the etiquette of the Italian nobility. However, she was far too weak, and it wasn't a good time for her to move.

"Beautiful Madam Rosa, you don't need to thank me. As a doctor, this is my duty and professional ethic," Chen Fei said with a smile. "But you need to rest more now, and for the next few days, try to talk less." As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Pierce Earl aside.

"Dear Chen, you are incredible! No wonder Tucci has such confidence in you. This is the most impressive and amazing medical skill I have ever seen. Traditional Chinese Medicine is truly remarkable." Before Chen Fei could even speak, the earl had excitedly grasped his hand and was gushing.

Clearly, the scene today had shaken him to his core.

After all, who knows how many world-renowned cardiovascular and cardiac specialists he had invited before this? Yet they were either evasive or bluntly stated there was no hope. This spoke volumes about how serious and perilous his wife Rosa's condition was.

But now? This young man from that ancient and mysterious country had managed to awaken his deeply comatose wife using only a miraculous massage technique and a dazzling set of so-called Chinese medicine needles. What did this mean? It meant that Traditional Chinese Medicine, which they had previously dismissed, genuinely possessed such power—the power to turn decay into a miracle. It was simply unimaginable and hard to accept.

In fact, the international prejudice against Traditional Chinese Medicine often stems from its focus on treating the root cause, a process that can be slow to show effects. During this slow period, misunderstandings and false perceptions easily arise, leading many to incorrectly believe that Chinese medicine is a hoax.

"Oh, God! She… she actually woke up!?"

If even Pierce Earl was this astonished, then George Anthony Lias, the man considered the top cardiovascular authority in Italy, was naturally almost dumbfounded, as if he had just witnessed the impossible.

"This… how… how on earth did you do it?" he stammered, unable to stop himself from approaching Chen Fei. He asked a series of excited questions, momentarily forgetting his fear of the man. "Why could a single needle and that massage technique awaken such a critically ill patient so quickly? Why did this happen? I can't wrap my head around it…"

To him, Rosa's condition had been so severe that she could have met God at any moment. Forget waking up—even slightly alleviating the severity of her illness would have been an extraordinary feat in his eyes.

But now… why did this happen!? It's simply unbelievable.

"Why? Isn't it obvious?" A corner of Chen Fei's mouth lifted into a faint smile. "I performed a magic trick for you all. I used something you consider entirely false to save her."

"Oh, dear Chen, Traditional Chinese Medicine is nothing false!" Pierce Earl immediately declared, his face completely serious. "In my eyes, it is absolutely an art, a truly awe-inspiring art!" He wasn't joking. If such a miraculous medical skill was a sham, then there was likely nothing real left in the world.

"I… this…" Doctor George seemed to be reeling from the shock. He simply couldn't fathom how Chinese medicine—something he had long been convinced was nothing but deceit—could display such miraculous power right before his eyes.

This truly challenged his entire worldview. Was it possible that his stubbornly held opinions were wrong?

"I have always believed that Traditional Chinese Medicine has its unique strengths, just as Western medicine has its own charms," Chen Fei said suddenly. "The conflict arises because they operate on different theoretical concepts: Western medicine treats the symptoms, while Chinese medicine treats the root cause. This naturally leads to some unnecessary misunderstandings. Doctor George, I can understand your pride as a physician of Western medicine. However, if that pride is built upon arrogant prejudice, then it becomes rather irrational, don't you think?"

A look of shame appeared on Doctor George's face, and he wished he could disappear.

"Oh, God, what have I done? I'm sorry, respected sir. Please allow me to apologize," he said, forced to concede with sincere admiration. He looked full of remorse. "I was indeed too arrogant. My views were clouded by incorrect prejudice. Please accept my sincere apology. I now truly believe that Traditional Chinese Medicine is a magnificent and miraculous medical art, and in some respects, it is even superior to our Western medicine."

Typically, proud and stubborn people are also highly capable and successful individuals with unique accomplishments. Once they form an opinion, it is very difficult to change. However, when faced with undeniable truth, they aren't the type to shamelessly deny reality. Facts are facts. A proud person would rather accept failure than turn their back on the truth like a scoundrel and be despised. That is the behavior of the weak—feeble and shameful.

With that thought, Doctor George cast aside the last of his prejudice and spoke earnestly to the smiling Chen Fei. "Respected sir, you are the most capable and principled practitioner of Huaxia's traditional medicine I have ever met. It is my great honor to have witnessed such a miracle today. Rest assured, I will honor our bet. Within the next few days, I will submit my opinion for publication in *Global Medical Weekly*. Traditional Chinese Medicine is a magical medical practice. In some ways, it is more powerful than Western medicine!"

"Is that so? Then I look forward to reading your submission in *Global Medical Weekly*," Chen Fei replied, smiling with satisfaction.

*Global Medical Weekly* was the world's most influential and authoritative medical journal. Many luminaries in the medical field published their views, theories, and latest research reports in its pages. It was known as the bellwether of global medicine. If Doctor George truly published his views there, then perhaps it could be considered his own small contribution to Chinese medicine.

Putting the matter aside, he turned his gaze to Pierce Earl, who was standing nearby. "Pierce Earl, although Madam Rosa has awakened, her situation is still precarious. I hope you are mentally prepared for this."

"This… Dear Chen, I'm sure you have a way to restore Rosa's health, don't you?" Pierce Earl's expression changed, and he spoke with urgent hope. "You are a miraculous, incredible doctor. I am willing to believe in you."

"Pierce Earl, Madam Rosa's condition has stabilized, but according to the data analysis, her heart is still in an 'overloaded state' with many hidden risks," Doctor George interjected, having subconsciously moved to check the medical instruments. His expression was grave.

"The heart is an exceptionally important organ. If it loses power like a rusted engine, it can indeed be very troublesome," Chen Fei murmured, stroking his chin. Then he suddenly smiled. "However, there is a way to handle this situation. Pierce Earl, do you remember the Chinese medicinal herbs I asked you to prepare earlier?"

"...Of course." Pierce Earl paused for a moment before quickly replying, "I've already sent someone to prepare them. They should be ready soon and will be delivered immediately."

"Tell them to prepare several portions. And remember, they must be wild, all-natural herbs, otherwise there could be problems," Chen Fei instructed. "Once the herbs are ready, heat them in a large pot of water. Let Madam Rosa soak in it for a medicinal bath, twice a day, for at least thirty minutes each time."

"A bath?" Both Pierce Earl and Doctor George were taken aback.

"Yes, a bath," Chen Fei confirmed with a matter-of-fact nod. "However, there might be some frightening moments during the process, similar to what happened earlier. But this is a normal reaction, so there's no need to worry."

"Oh, Traditional Chinese Medicine is truly amazing… to think a bath could cure an illness," Pierce Earl marveled.

Just then, however, Doctor George couldn't help but exclaim, "Wait, respected sir! Do you mean to say that heart failure and cardiovascular disease can be cured this way? With… with those Chinese… Chinese medicines you prescribed?" If that was true, it was an astonishing revelation, one that could cause a major earthquake in the world of medicine.

"In theory, yes," Chen Fei replied. "However, this method involves very specific formulations. The same prescription that helps one patient could be poison to another. Take Lady Rosa's current situation. If I were to alter the dosage even slightly, I'm certain she wouldn't live to see this evening's sunset."

In Chinese medicine, there is an old saying: a hair's breadth of deviation can lead to a thousand miles of error. Indeed, the formulation of a prescription is critically important. A slight mishap might not only render the treatment ineffective but could, in the worst cases, cause harmful side effects and turn the medicine into a deadly poison.
