Chapter 96: Chapter 96: I am the man, the real one is here! (Merry Christmas)

Last year at the Busan Medical Exchange Conference, he shoved 100,000 yuan to the overseas organizers and got a ticket to enter.

It was after that event that he packaged himself as an overseas-trained eminent doctor and started scamming people in the country.

To prevent the scam from collapsing, he generally treated the wealthy, using basic knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine theory combined with preliminary research to bamboozle his patients thoroughly.

Take for instance just now when he took Lu Xuemei’s pulse, he even disclosed her frigidity, which was because Wen Jingya had provided him with a family roster and also informed him about the daily routines of its members.

Down to details like what they loved to eat, their habits, their social circles, and so on.

The only person missing from this list was Jiang Man.

At that time, Wen Jingya mentioned that Jiang Man had only married into the Lu Family a few days ago, so she was not familiar with her.

The fake Divine Doctor’s eyes widened and he was momentarily so stupefied that his tongue trembled and he found himself unable to speak.

Because he finally recalled the part about Jiang Man from his memory!

No wonder he felt she looked familiar when he first saw her; they seemed to have met somewhere before.

Now he finally remembered!

At the Busan Medical Exchange Conference, the award for Rising Star in Medicine, "man" the Divine Doctor!

He... wasn’t he a man?

The fake Divine Doctor felt like exploding.

Actually, at that time he had only glimpsed the actual Divine Doctor from a distance and had no chance to approach.

At that time, "man" was wearing a cap, which covered most of his face, and his attire was very androgynous, including a very large, loose T-shirt, leading him to presume preconceivedly that she was a junior.

It’s not that he discriminated against women, but back then he never thought that a girl could be that impressive!

There are not many women who have achieved something in medicine, especially not ones so young!

Many people wanted to friend "man" at that time, but "man" just smiled and said he didn’t have Facebook or Twitter, only WeChat.

"!!!" The fake Divine Doctor swallowed his saliva frantically, so nervous he could barely breathe.

The real deal was low-key, playing the game of a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and now this faker had just walked into the line of fire?

Damn!

Just now, he had made a fool of himself diagnosing Lu Xuemei; man must have been laughing her head off, right?

So the clown was actually himself?

"Uh... my stomach feels a bit off... I’m going to the restroom."

The fake Divine Doctor reacted quickly, suddenly standing up, thinking of making a quick escape.

If not now, when?

Hearing his request for the restroom, Lu Xuemei immediately stood up to direct him with keenness: "There are two restrooms on the first floor, go straight and turn right for one, the other one is farther, near the garden at the left corner..."

Before she could finish, the fake Divine Doctor had already bolted.

Jiang Man glanced at his ridiculous retreat and scoffed.

Lu Xingzhou furrowed his brows when he heard her laughter, "What’s the matter? Was ’man’ the Divine Doctor acting off, or is the Busan Medical Exchange Conference some kind of code between you?"

"Indeed, it’s a code," Jiang Man raised her eyebrows and shifted her gaze to Wen Jingya.

Wen Jingya, still in the dark, was eating her food with relish.

Seizing the moment while the Divine Doctor was absent, the old lady commanded the butler to serve Wen Jingya some dishes.

"Jingya, you have made a great contribution this time, tell me, what reward would you like?"

Upon hearing there was a reward, both Lu Yaobang and Meng Lian leaped up in excitement.

Especially Meng Lian, who was even happier than if she had received the reward herself.

Wen Jingya showed modesty and shook her head, "I don’t need a reward; Xingzhou is my brother—shouldn’t a family love each other?"

"Jingya really understands things!" Meng Lian was very relieved.

She turned her head toward the elderly lady, "Mom, how about this? Jingya’s birthday is coming up, right? I want to announce at her birthday party that we are officially adopting her, and I want to make her party a grand affair."

"That works," the elderly lady replied without a second thought, "Is a budget of two million enough?"

"That’s more than enough!" Meng Lian nodded happily. "Jingya, invite all your college classmates then."

"Yes, I’d like that," Wen Jingya nodded obediently.

"Zhou’er, invite your good friends and business partners too, and it would be a good chance to find Jingya a boyfriend!" Meng Lian set her sights on Lu Xingzhou.

Lu Xingzhou, considering that Wen Jingya did indeed deserve credit, did not coldly refuse but instead answered, "Alright."

"Auntie will prepare a big surprise for you then!" Lu Xuemei expressed her gratitude competitively.

Wen Jingya felt sweet inside.

It was this feeling, this feeling of being surrounded and cherished by everyone, that felt so wonderful!

She knew that with a little trick, Jiang Man was no match for her.

Competing with her? Maybe in the next life!

Just as Wen Jingya was arrogantly flying high, the corners of her mouth almost hanging a bottle, Jiang Man’s bland and cold voice interrupted her self-satisfaction.

"Grandma, aunt, don’t get too excited too soon. The ’Divine Doctor’ Jingya invited, he’s a fake."

Her tone was flat, light, and airy.

Yet, the people hearing it were very excited and emotionally charged.

Especially Lu Xuemei, "What? A fake? Manman, are you joking?"

Jiang Man’s master, senior brothers, and junior nephew were all celebrities, so Lu Xuemei took her words seriously.

"Could there have been a mistake?" Lu Xuemei asked for confirmation.

Jiang Man placed her phone on the dining table with a slap, "Aunt, you’ll have to ask Jingya about that."

Wen Jingya, who was enjoying her meal, trembled at these words, her chopsticks slipped, and fell directly to the ground.

Her face drained of color, but she managed to squeeze out a bit of composure, "Sister-in-law, how can you be sure he is a fake? Did you meet him before?"

"We met," Jiang Man sneered. "At an academic exchange in Busan, he was thrown out by the staff. The reason was quite funny—he had paid for his entry ticket."

"...Is that so? There could actually be such a thing?" Wen Jingya was panic-stricken, but her acting was top-notch.

As long as she played the dumb sweet girl, at that point, let the fake Divine Doctor take the blame alone.

"Manman, food can be eaten carelessly, but words should not be spoken recklessly. What you just said could ruin someone’s reputation. Are you sure he’s a fake?" Meng Lian frowned, her expression very serious.

Just when the elderly lady’s reward was about to be in her hands, was it going to fly away in the blink of an eye?

"Jingya, where did you find him? Through what channel? Is it reliable?" Lu Xuemei was somewhat shaken.

She was more inclined to believe Jiang Man, who had been addressed as ’Little Master Uncle’ by Doctor Wan.

"I contacted him through a friend who studied abroad, a medical student whose advisor has written numerous medical papers and is quite famous, who said he knew the Divine Doctor."

Wen Jingya casually lied, trying to cover the old lies with new ones.

"Sister-in-law, godmother is right, we shouldn’t speak recklessly; you must not tarnish the Divine Doctor’s reputation."

In the end, she turned the tables, directing the spearhead back at Jiang Man.

Jiang Man laughed angrily, no longer willing to endure.

Her eyebrows twitched with irritation, flamboyant and malevolent, a face full of displeasure, "He’s a fake because I am the ’man,’ the real one is right here!"
