Chapter 38: Treatable

Song Xuelan also smiled. She wanted to see Long Qin admit that the patient couldn't be cured and be mocked by everyone. However, Long Qin read the medical record slowly and squatted down to check Xie Dong's leg. Then, she took Xie Dong's pulse. "Alright, I can treat your illness."
These few words were spoken lightly, but they shocked everyone present.
Soon, someone reacted and sneered. "You can even treat bone cancer. Are you ignorant or arrogant?"
Someone added, "Forget it. After all, she came back from the penal planet. There are many things she doesn't know. She thinks that bone cancer is a small illness and casually said that it can be treated. I can only say that the ignorant are fearless."
Those who were willing to attend the banquet today were more or less friends with the Song family. Naturally, they suppressed Long Qin everywhere.
"Long Qin, bone cancer is not a small illness. It has not been cured in the medical field to this day. Even if you can't treat it, no one will say anything." Old Master Su tried his best to persuade Long Qin not to act on impulse.
Old Madam Cang also persuaded, "That's right. Everyone knows that bone cancer can't be cured. There's no need for you to force yourself to stand out."
For the first time, she felt that Long Qin was not very mature. Why did she suddenly become willful?
A guest said disdainfully, "Even Old Master Song doesn't dare to say that this illness can be treated. Long Qin really dares to say it."
Old Master Song walked over with his walking stick. He felt that Long Qin, his great-granddaughter, was extraordinarily arrogant and dared to say anything. However, when he heard the guests say that he could not cure bone cancer either, he sneered in his heart. Cancer was indeed a problem that humans could not solve for many years, but once this problem was solved, it would not be as simple as becoming famous in the world! Whoever could cure cancer that had been said to be fatal for thousands of years would leave a mark in history!
As a highly respected person in the medical world, how could Old Master Song not want to become famous and leave his name in history? Therefore, in the past few decades, he had been researching how to treat cancer and his efforts had paid off. He had finally found a breakthrough! He had been looking for an opportunity to make his breakthrough public. Perhaps tomorrow's Nobel Prize in Medicine would be his! Tonight was the good opportunity he had prepared for himself!
At this moment, Xiao Shen suddenly squeezed into the crowd and asked Long Qin excitedly, "Miss Long, are you sure you're not bragging?"
Long Qin's face did not show the arrogance and surliness she deliberately displayed in front of the Song family. Instead, she was more cautious. "I'm very sure I can treat it."
Xiao Shen asked again, "Miss Long, how do you plan to treat him? Or do you plan to give him a simple punch?"
Hearing that, everyone burst into laughter. It would be great if she could also fight cancer with a single punch as well. Then Long Qin would not be a doctor, but a quack who was deliberately being mysterious.
Long Qin also smiled. "Of course not. The treatment of cancer is not as difficult as everyone thinks. As long as we find a breakthrough, cancer is not as scary as everyone thinks."
Hearing this, Academician Li from the Chinese Medicine Research Institute scolded, "Nonsense! You're talking nonsense!"
Long Qin was not angry. She asked casually, "Academician Li, do you think smallpox is difficult to treat?"
Academician Li replied, "Of course, it's not difficult. What era is it now? People have already conquered the smallpox virus."
Long Qin nodded. "That's right. Smallpox is not difficult to treat now, but before that, smallpox was the most feared disease of humans because the survival rate was almost zero."
Academician Li retorted, "You're twisting logic."
Long Qin shook her head. "No, I just want to say that the times are developing and medical skills are improving. The diseases that once made people pale in fear will all be cured. Therefore, cancer will also be cured."
Xiao Shen interrupted at this moment. "So, Miss Long, you mean that you've found a way to overcome cancer?"
Long Qin shook her head. "I didn't find it."
Xiao Shen's expression changed. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Long Qin turn to look at Xie Dong and say, "Sir, I've seen your medical records. Although I didn't find a cure for cancer, my mentor has painstakingly studied cancer treatment for many years. Fortunately, his efforts have paid off. This time, when I returned to Earth, I was entrusted by my mentor to make the method public and benefit the people. You'll be the first person to receive such treatment. Are you willing to accept my treatment?"
As soon as she said that, the whole audience was in an uproar! This was cancer! Could there really be a breakthrough in treatment? At this moment, no matter if Long Qin was boasting or not, everyone's eyes were on her, looking forward to a miracle.
