Boom…
The scene immediately erupted, and everyone scrambled to their feet, looking towards the stage.
The woman, who had been perfectly fine moments ago, was now collapsing in the man's arms, her face pale, lips tinged purple, and her body wracked with spasms.
"This…"
Cang Yizu was stunned, utterly clueless as to how such a situation could arise.
The medical team, waiting backstage, rushed forward and began emergency measures on the woman, but it seemed ineffective.
"There must be something wrong with this Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill?"
"I think there's definitely something wrong. Otherwise, how could a perfectly healthy person have such a reaction shortly after taking the medicine?"
"Thankfully, someone tried the medicine beforehand. If I had bought it for my wife, it would have been a fatality!"
…
Public opinion ran rampant.
Listening to the murmurs from below the stage, Cang Yizu's expression darkened to the point where water could have dripped from it.
He had thought that he could leverage this sudden patient to boost the publicity of the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill.
He had never anticipated such an accident.
"No, this is a conspiracy!"
"Yes, it's a conspiracy!"
Cang Yizu suddenly realized that the man had been specifically arranged by Qin Xue to disrupt the event, and the woman was his accomplice. They must have orchestrated these events to prevent the successful launch of the product.
With this thought, Cang Yizu immediately shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet!"
As the hall gradually quieted down, Cang Yizu confidently declared, "This is all fake. These two people were specifically hired by someone to sabotage our Cang family's press conference. This woman is definitely faking it."
Upon hearing this, a chorus of murmurs arose. Many people muttered, "Are you blind? Her face is already pale, her lips are purple, and her whole body is trembling uncontrollably. Can that be faked?"
Cang Yizu couldn't hear these words at all. His stern gaze suddenly locked onto Qin Xue in the crowd.
"President Qin, you deliberately arranged for this person, didn't you?"
Everyone turned to look at Qin Xue, pondering the likelihood of such a scenario.
Both the Cang family and Tianfan Pharmaceuticals claimed to have the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill. It wasn't impossible for such a situation to occur, especially since the successful launch of the Cang family's pill would mean Tianfan Pharmaceuticals, which was still in its publicity phase, would lose its competitive edge.
Arranging for someone to cause a scene at the event and disrupt the launch would benefit Tianfan Pharmaceuticals the most.
Questioned, Qin Xue was taken aback and asked, "President Cang, what do you mean by that?"
"Accusations require evidence. You can't shift the blame onto me just because Tianfan Pharmaceuticals is competing with your Cang family, can you?"
"We are indeed competitors, but I would never do something like this!"
"As I've said before, market share is gained through our own abilities."
Upon hearing this, many people nodded in agreement, feeling that Qin Xue wouldn't resort to such measures, as it would appear too obvious.
"Hmph, it's definitely you!
"Let me tell you, I don't have time to investigate this now, but I will definitely get to the bottom of it!"
Just then, the doctor responsible for the emergency care cried out in alarm, "This is bad! We need to get the patient to the hospital immediately!"
"It's too late, and it could be dangerous!"
The man also stood up and shouted angrily at Cang Yizu, "Didn't you say your medicine was fine? My wife has lung disease, but she's been fine all these years, hasn't she?"
"She's like this after taking your medicine. Do you dare say that my wife's condition has nothing to do with your medicine?"
Life and death were at stake.
Cang Yizu knew that if the woman were to die, even if the Cang family's Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill was not the cause, it would be mistakenly linked to it, which would have a significant impact on its development.
He ignored the furious man and said to the medical staff, "Then hurry and send her to the hospital for treatment. Make sure to save her."
"No need!"
A hoarse, aged voice suddenly echoed from the back of the hall.
Following that, an old man with white hair, supported by a servant, walked onto the stage.
"It's Divine Doctor Cang."
"With Physician King Cang here, there's no need to send her to the hospital; he can treat her."
…
It was a rare occasion to see the Physician King of Shan Hai, and everyone was quite excited.
"Dad…"
Seeing his father appear, Cang Yizu, who had already panicked, rushed forward as if he had found a savior and asked, "Why are you here!"
Cang Shanhai's expression was grim. Despite the numerous wrinkles on his face, his eyes were clear and sharp.
"I've told you before that this medicine is not yet perfected, yet you wouldn't listen to my advice?"
"And you hid it from me, planning to launch this medicine!"
"If I hadn't come, you would have ruined the Cang family's reputation built over generations."
Those listening nearby were greatly surprised to hear this. They had never imagined that the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill, which the Cang family was preparing to launch, was not yet a complete product.
If it were fully launched, who knew how many people it would harm.
However, since they were all family, they didn't loudly reveal this situation.
Scolded, Cang Yizu's face contorted in misery, and he muttered softly, "Wasn't it for the sake of seizing the initiative? Besides, we conducted many clinical trials, and there were no problems, were there?"
"Hmph, I'll deal with you later!"
Cang Shanhai glared fiercely at his son before walking towards the woman undergoing emergency treatment.
He first observed the woman's condition, then reached into his sleeve and pulled out a cloth package. Opening it, he retrieved silver needles and began treating the woman.
After inserting over ten needles, the woman's spasmodic body gradually calmed, and some color returned to her pale face.
"Indeed, a Physician King. His intervention is extraordinary!"
"Fortunately, the Physician King arrived in time, or someone would have lost their life today."
…
Although the crowd had doubts about the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill presented by the Cang family, no one dared to question Cang Shanhai's medical skills.
After stabilizing the woman's condition, Cang Shanhai instructed the medical staff, "You can now send her to the hospital for further recuperation. The Cang family will cover all expenses!"
Afterward, Cang Shanhai asked the man, "Does your wife have any other heart conditions?"
The man quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, my wife also has congenital heart disease!"
"For years, we've emptied our coffers trying to cure her illness. I heard that the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill is a miraculous medicine that can cure any illness, so I brought my wife to see. I didn't expect…"
Cang Shanhai took a few steps back and suddenly bowed to the man, apologizing profusely, "I am truly sorry, the Cang family has disappointed you!"
"This Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill is indeed a very profound miraculous medicine. However, as everyone knows, with resources becoming scarce, many medicinal ingredients have become extinct, forcing us to use substitutes."
"Some substitute ingredients can cause conflicts in their medicinal properties, and for patients with heart and liver diseases, they not only fail to treat but can act like poison, worsening their condition."
Upon learning this, the crowd below the stage began to stir with shouts and curses.
They were clearly not perfected and still had problems, so why were they being put on the market?
Even with these contraindications, they should have been disclosed in advance. Why did the publicity claim it could cure any illness?
Wasn't this misleading people?
Hearing the clamor, Cang Yizu was furious.
Cang Shanhai, having been through such situations before, remained calm. He faced the crowd, raised his hand slightly to signal for quiet, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill currently has flaws. I will do my best to rectify these flaws and then present the Nine Revolutions Returning Spirit Pill without any contraindications to you all."
"The press conference is hereby concluded. Thank you all for your attendance!"
"Wait!"
A voice suddenly rang out.
