Chapter 403: Couple Working Together

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There was much competition between people of the same profession. However, compared to other professions, there was much fewer competition between doctors.

After all, the medical profession was very special. There wasn’t any direct comparison like that between embroidery workshops or restaurants. After all, it was too difficult to find two patients with the same illness at the same time.

However, this didn’t mean that doctors didn’t have a way to compete. It was just that it was too risky for them, so most doctors chose to compete in terms of treatment plans.

They compared their treatment plans and invited judges to evaluate them.

Although this method seemed good, it was limited in the sense that there were no practical way to prove the validity of the diagnosis plans.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, doctors wouldn’t use treatment plans to compete with each other. Of course, there were exceptions.

In such cases, doctors often resorted to another crueler method—to compete with poison.

…..

The reason it was cruel was because both sides had to personally or let their companions take the poison that the other party had concocted. Then, they had to see who could concoct the antidote first within the specified time.

As for the herbs used for the poison, both sides would discuss it in advance. They could only use the herbs that both sides had agreed on in advance. If they violated the rules, they would be charged with murder.

Although no one would be killed during this kind of competition because the toxicity of the herbs would be controlled, if things went wrong, it would still cause great harm to the people who consumed the poison.

However, Sun Yunzhong chose this method in front of everyone.

“Aren’t you taking things too far?!”

“That’s right. Sun Xing, you have to think twice!”

Although they also hated Lin Suisui and the others very much, when their lives were really in danger, there were still people who advised them kindly.

However, Sun Yunzhong didn’t listen to their advice at all. He glared at Lin Suisui and gritted his teeth as he said, “There’s no need to implicate others. It’s just between you and me. Do you dare to accept the challenge?”

“I don’t care, but you’re already so old, so your body might not be able to withstand it! If you lose because of your ill health, won’t others accuse me of winning unfairly?”

Lin Suisui wasn’t surprised by Sun Yun’s request.

This was the best solution that Sun Yunzhong could find in the current situation. Not only could he eliminate the threat, but he could also vent his anger!

Moreover, according to the rules, if he won, he could make the medical center promise him something. This way, their crisis would be resolved!

Sun Yunzhong had everything planned out.

“Even I don’t care, so do you have to worry about me, your opponent? Don’t tell me you don’t dare to take the risk?” When Sun Yunzhong heard Lin Sui’s words, he didn’t feel that Lin Suisui was thinking for his sake at all. Instead, he glared at Lin Suisui with disdain and sneered. “Does your medical center dare to accept the challenge?!”

“In that case, let’s start.” Lin Suisui didn’t say anything else and raised her hand.

However, Doctor Luo couldn’t stand it anymore. He frowned and took two steps forward. Before Sun Yunzhong could agree, he said, “I don’t think this is appropriate.”

“Who has the final say in Rejuvenation Hall?” Sun Yunzhong’s expression was sullen as he glared at Doctor Luo, whose face was filled with anxiety. Then, he turned to Lin Suisui and said angrily, “If you don’t dare to, just admit it. There’s no need to waste everyone’s time.”

“Of course we dare to accept the challenge, but I suggest that we replace the person who will take the medicine with someone else.” Doctor Luo refused to relent. As if he didn’t see Sun Yunzhong’s dissatisfaction at all, he explained calmly, “After all, it’s unfair to compete like this!

You don’t care, but if word gets out, Rejuvenation Hall will be in the wrong. After all, you’re already so old. If others say that we bullied an old man like you, we won’t be able to defend ourselves!

How about this? I’ll take the medicine, and your son will take it in your place?

“I’m about the same age as your son. This way, no matter who wins or loses, no one else will harp on this matter anymore. It’s the fairest for both of us!”

After saying that, Doctor Luo turned to look at Sun Xing’s eldest son with a smile as he said confidently, “Young Master Sun, what do you think?”

Sun Yunzhong wanted to refuse, but after hearing the advice of his companions, he finally nodded in agreement. After all, he wasn’t young anymore, so it would be a little difficult for him to concoct the antidote while suffering the effects of the poison.

“Then you take it.” Sun Yunzhong turned to look at his eldest son, who didn’t look happy, as he instructed in a low voice with a cold expression, “Don’t worry, I’ve been a doctor for so many years. I won’t be defeated by a little girl!”

Since they had decided to compete with poison, they naturally had to be prepared.

Because this sort of competition was really rare, when this competition began, the entire medical center was already filled with commoners who had come to watch.

It was unknown what he thought of, but before the competition began, Sun Yunzhong actually took the initiative to move the competition venue outside the medical center. He said that this way, it would be easier for the commoners to supervise…

Lin Suisui had no objections to this, but Lu Ze, who had come downstairs, stopped Doctor Luo, who was about to walk out with Lin Sui.

“Let me be the poison tester.” Lu Ze glanced at Sun Yunzhong and the others, who were clearly wary and timid towards him. After he handed the longsword in his hand to Su Qi, who was accompanying him, he looked at Sun Yunzhong calmly and continued, “Since it’s father and son on your side, it’ll be husband and wife on our side.

This way, it will be fair to both sides. I believe Sun Xing won’t refuse this request..”
