At the thought of this, Scott said to Blake, “Mr. Hemsworth, you’ve got to find a way! We mustn’t let these foreigners blacken the name of our traditional medicine!”

Blake looked troubled with a bitter taste in his mouth. “I… I…”

Just as he was stammering without being able to say a complete sentence, Matt stepped forward and said loudly, “Please calm down, everyone!

Won’t my and Felix’s plan come to nothing if Blake takes action? he thought to himself. Therefore, he hurriedly stepped forward and motioned everyone to watch Kingsley’s performance first.

Seeing that Matt had spoken, the medical bigwigs led by Scott fell silent. After all, they were invited here by Matt and Felix, so they couldn’t steal the show from Matt and spoil his plans.

The dense crowd upstairs gradually fell silent as well. After all, they had squeezed in to watch the spectacle.

I’m already over 60 years old this year and will retire in a few years’ time. Why would I be made to do something entirely beyond myself?! Am I really gonna lose my reputation?! he lamented to himself.
