Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me

71: Chapter 71 Master, what are you doing here?_1 71: Chapter 71 Master, what are you doing here?_1 The next morning.

Lu Chuan looked at the five old men dressed as apprentices diligently doing odd jobs, with a face of helplessness.

“If the people outside knew that the apprentices of our medical hall are the five great tycoons of Cloud City’s traditional medicine circle, I’m afraid their jaws would drop.”

At that moment, a noisy commotion came from outside, with many people gathered around the entrance of the medical hall.

Mu Nanqing came over with a serious expression.

Lu Chuan approached and asked, “Sister-in-law, what’s happening outside?”

Mu Nanqing said, “People from Jerry Clinic are here to challenge us again today, and all these people outside are here to watch the excitement.”

Lu Chuan’s eyebrows raised, “They’ve challenged us before, and it ended up with people not going to their clinic anymore, and they still dare to come again?”

Mu Nanqing spoke with some concern, “I heard from the people outside that Jerry Clinic has come prepared this time, apparently they’ve brought in a formidable doctor, otherwise they wouldn’t make such a big display.

Xiaochuan, what should we do?”

Zhou Siming came over and snorted coldly, “To think there are still people daring to challenge our medical hall, I’d like to see what kind of impressive figure they’ve invited!”

Lu Chuan laughed heartily, “Exactly, with Old Zhou and the other seniors here, we don’t have to be afraid of anyone who comes to challenge us, sister-in-law, you needn’t worry.”

Mu Nanqing thought about it and, indeed, with several of the most experienced traditional Chinese physicians of Cloud City’s traditional medicine circle here, they really had nothing to fear.

…

In front of Jerry Clinic.

Zhang Kaiwen looked at Cherng Yong with great respect and said, “Brother Cherng, we are all relying on you for this challenge.”

Cherng Yong had an air of arrogance, “Don’t worry, Brother Zhang, among the younger generation in the world of traditional medicine, there are few who can compare with me.

This time, I will definitely make that Lu Chuan lose miserably!”

Zhang Kaiwen broke into a smile, “With your words, I can rest assured.”

Fang Miao came over excitedly, “Teacher, I’ve arranged everything with the friends from the media.

They will broadcast the whole challenge live online, so when the time comes, the entire Cloud City will watch Hanging Gourd Medical Hall lose to our Jerry Clinic.”

Zhang Kaiwen nodded in satisfaction, “Well done, such events should indeed be broadcast live, letting all the citizens know our clinic’s strength.”

He turned to Cherng Yong and said, “Brother Cherng, this is also a great opportunity for you to make a name for yourself.

Hanging Gourd Medical Hall has been making a lot of noise in Cloud City lately, but if you defeat Lu Chuan, you will be the Divine Doctor everyone talks about!”

A look of anticipation appeared on Cherng Yong’s face as he said with a smile, “You flatter me too much.

The title of Divine Doctor should belong to my master.”

Zhang Kaiwen said, “Exactly, exactly, Old Zhou’s skills are evident to all and certainly worthy of the title Divine Doctor.

I wonder what he thinks about this challenge?”

Cherng Yong said, “I haven’t told him about this matter, but if he knew, he would probably fully support me.”

Zhang Kaiwen nodded and said no more.

The group marched imposingly toward Hanging Gourd Medical Hall.

On the way, Fang Miao spoke with sarcasm, “When I saw that Hanging Gourd Medical Hall had taken in a few apprentices, they were all decrepit old men.

Lu Chuan really is stingy, not even willing to spend money on young and strong apprentices.”

Zhang Kaiwen sneered, “Isn’t this exactly what indicates that everyone is not optimistic about their medical hall?

Those who truly seek development wouldn’t go there.

Only those old men, uncultured and with poor insight and unsteady legs, are willing to go.”

“What do you think, Brother Cherng?”

Cherng Yong followed with a nod, “Indeed, running to become an apprentice at such an old age, clearly, he’s an unwanted old geezer.

This just goes to show that Lu Chuan lacks any business acumen, haphazardly employing anyone—laughable!”

A crowd gathered in front of Hanging Gourd Medical Hall.

Zhang Kaiwen shouted loudly, “Lu Chuan, get out here!

Jerry Clinic is here to challenge your establishment today.

We will use our skills to prove that you’re not fit to run a medical hall on this street!”

Lu Chuan stepped forward, speaking indifferently, “Whether I’m fit to run a medical hall here or not, that was clear to everyone last time.

As for you, not only did you not reflect on your loss, but you’ve also come to lose a second time.

Don’t you find that embarrassing?”

Zhang Kaiwen snorted coldly, “Last time was but a courtesy since you had just opened.

We intentionally let you win.

This time will be different.”

He pointed at Cherng Yong, “This is a physician we’ve brought into our clinic, his expertise far surpasses that of a half-baked practitioner like you.

He will be the one to compete with you this time!”

Cherng Yong looked at Lu Chuan with a mocking gaze, saying, “It’s not easy for someone as young as you are to make a name for your medical hall, but I’ve heard that your apprentices here are all old, weak, sick, and disabled?

Can’t afford to hire young apprentices, can you?”

Lu Chuan’s face grew cold, “Show some respect, please.

The identities of my apprentices here are no ordinary matter, at least not something you can casually judge.”

Cherng Yong chuckled mockingly, “A bunch of useless old men, and you say they’re no ordinary identity?

If they were really anything special, would they come here to be apprentices?”

Lu Chuan frowned.

Then, a voice filled with anger rose, “Useless old men?

Cherng Yong, I didn’t expect to be seen this way in your eyes!”

Lu Chuan turned his head and saw Zhou Siming, followed by four other elders, walking out.

Cherng Yong was initially startled, and upon seeing the apprentice uniform on Zhou Siming, his face dramatically changed.

His gaze swept over the four people following Zhou Siming, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

“Master…

Old Sun, Old Xue, Senior Zhao, Old Master Li…”

Thump.

Cherng Yong swallowed his saliva with difficulty.

Zhang Kaiwen’s face showed confusion, but as he took a clear look at Zhou Siming and the others, he exclaimed, “It’s Divine Doctor Zhou!”

Fang Miao couldn’t believe it, “Divine Doctor Zhou?

This decrepit old man is the renowned Divine Doctor Zhou?

How is that possible!”

Many people in the crowd of onlookers also recognized Zhou Siming and the others.

“It’s actually Old Master Zhou Siming.

He’s an apprentice in Hanging Gourd Medical Hall!”

“The four people behind Old Zhou are all prominent figures in Cloud City’s traditional medicine circle.

They’re apprentices in Hanging Gourd Medical Hall, too?”

“I remember now, isn’t that doctor from Jerry Clinic Cherng Yong, Zhou Siming’s disciple?

He’s actually challenging his own master!”

…

The reporters and photographers present immediately turned their cameras towards Cherng Yong and Zhou Siming.

A journalist spoke earnestly, “Divine Doctor Zhou Siming is being challenged by his own disciple.

Is this a distortion of the master-disciple relationship or a degradation of shared interests?

I’m Bingbing, and I’ll bring you the frontline report…”

It took a while for Cherng Yong to regain his composure.

Cold sweat covered his forehead as he shakily asked, “Master…

elders, what are you doing here?”

“We are apprentices at Hanging Gourd Medical Hall,” Zhou Siming snorted coldly, his gaze sharply sweeping over Cherng Yong, causing him to shiver inwardly, goosebumps spreading across his skin, “So, you’ve come to challenge our medical hall?”
