After concluding his speech, Dr. Simmons turned to Master Wade with a serious expression and remarked, “However, Master Wade, Taoism emphasizes the cultivation of both mind and nature. If that’s true, then Hong Tianshi shouldn’t act so shamelessly, right?”


    Charlie responded with a knowing smile, casually stating, “If he truly embodies the principles of cultivating mind and nature, why would hee here to engage in betting with others? Just like the monks in the temple and the priests in the church, if they spend their days mingling with powerful figures and are surrounded by wealth, how can they genuinely cultivate their spirits?” Charlie’s perspective was shaped by what Stefanie Sun had told him.


    ording to Stefanie, Hong Tianshi had a close rtionship with his grandmother.


    From Charlie’s viewpoint, a person with true faith should first cultivate indifference to fame and fortune. If one invests all their energy in befriending influential individuals, how can their heart remain untainted?


    This applies to Hong Tianshi as well.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    It’s fair to say that someone like him could never genuinely connect with top dignitaries such as his grandmother.


    If he hadn’t spent decades meticulously managing, promoting, and packaging himself, how could he possibly be noticed by Grandma?


    This observation suggests that his utilitarian mindset is quite pronounced.


    Is it surprising for someone with such a utilitarian view to resort to some tricks while betting?


    X suddenly had an epiphany and eximed, “Master Wade, you’re absolutely right! That person is incredibly shrewd! His remarks were very provocative. At that moment, he said a few things in front of those patients, making it difficult for Grandpa to back down. If you hadn’t agreed to him then, it would have been impossible for you to gracefully exit! So, your suggestion that he might have nted fake patients in advance seems very usible!”<fn132e> The source of th?s content is FindN0vel</fn132e>


    Dr. Simmons sighed at this point, stating, “It’s toote to discuss this now. So many patients witnessed my defeat against him. Even if it’s known that he cheated, I can’t undo what has happened.” Charlie smiled slightly in response, saying, “That’s not necessarily the case.”


    Then, he had a thought and asked Dr. Simmons, “By the way, Miracle Doctor Simmons, you mentioned he possesses an ancestral medicine cauldron. What kind of cauldron is it?”


    Dr. Simmons quickly replied, “It’s a cauldron used for Taoist alchemy, roughly the size of a rugby ball, adorned with exquisite dragon patterns made of silk. ording to him, it was passed down by his ancestors specifically for refining elixirs.”


    Charlie raised an eyebrow, intrigued, and said with a grin, “This could indeed be a valuable item for alchemy.”


    He then inquired, “Did that man mention when he would arrive?”


    Dr. Simmons responded hurriedly, “He said he woulde promptly at eight o’clock tomorrow morning to hang the que he left at the door.”


    Charlie recalled the que draped in red satin at the entrance, smiled slightly, and stepped outside.


    Stopping in front of the que, Charlie unapologetically reached out and tore off the red satin, revealing three gold-ted characters: Serene Medical Clinic.


    With a snort, Charlie moved thedder aside, took the Serene Medical Clinic que he had just removed, and hung it back in ce.


    Dr. Simmons nervously said, “Master Wade, I can’t help but worry… If you hang this que, then the old man will bebeled as someone who is eager to gamble but unwilling to admit defeat…”


    Charlie smiled and reassured him, “It’s alright. Hanging the que will let him know that the situation has changed. He’ll definitelye rushing over to address it, and I’ll be here to meet him then!”
