Overbearing Immortal Doctor-Chapter 426 - Three: Puffed Up with Pride

"You little brat, have you lost your mind? Dare to speak to your aunt like this?" Sunx Jianhong scolded.

Faced with this farce, Sunx Jingong was happy to see it happen. He knew exactly why his daughter and son-in-law had come this time. As long as they made a fool of themselves in front of Zhang Dadan, they wouldn’t dare to speak again.

"Jianhong, Divine Doctor Zhang was personally invited by me. His medical skills are extraordinary. If you haven’t seen them, don’t jump to conclusions!" Sunx Jingong said calmly, neither anxious nor angry.

His relaxed attitude made Sunx Jianhong even more convinced that he had been deceived. Just as she was about to persuade him, she heard Zhang Dadan laugh and say:

"Doctor Bastard, how about this––aren’t you a Western doctor? Don’t you look down on Traditional Chinese Medicine? How about we have a little competition?"

A competition? Hearing this, Liu Ce felt a little nervous, but then he thought, after all, he had studied at Harvard. Even though he didn’t finish his doctorate, he wouldn’t lose to such a fraud.

"How do you want to compete?" Liu Ce calmed himself, confidently and smugly asked.

Seeing Zhang Dadan proactively suggest a competition, Sunx Jianhong and her husband were delighted and urged, "Alright! Let’s compete, hurry up!"

Zhang Dadan found the eagerness of this family amusing. So these are supposed to be people from a well-off family? So impatient!

"Alright then! How about we diagnose each other? I’ll see what illness you have, and you’ll see what illness I have!" Zhang Dadan proposed.

Diagnose each other? Hearing this, Liu Ce was momentarily stunned, a flash of panic flickered in his eyes.

Fortunately, Zhang Dadan is just a ’Traditional Chinese Medicine’ doctor. What skills could he possibly have? A competition then, I don’t believe he can find any illness!

Liu Ce scrutinized Zhang Dadan again and said smugly, "Alright! Let’s compete. Who goes first, you or me?"

"You go first! I’ve been feeling a bit uncomfortable in my stomach these past couple of days!" Zhang Dadan patted his stomach, pretending.

"Uncle, does the house have simple medical equipment like a stethoscope, blood pressure monitor?" Liu Ce respectfully asked Sunx Jian Country.

Sunx Jingong, being over seventy, had many ailments. The house not only had medical equipment but also two or three health doctors.

"Alright! I’ll have someone fetch it. Just wait a moment!" Sunx Jian Country might have found Liu Ce overbearing, but seeing his father didn’t stop him, he had to comply.

After a few minutes, a middle-aged man came running over with a metal box on his back.

This middle-aged man was a health doctor in the house. Upon hearing that the eldest young lady brought a medical doctor, wanting to compete with the family-invited Divine Doctor, he couldn’t resist witnessing it himself, so he personally brought the medical box.

"Sir, here’s the medical equipment!" The middle-aged man placed the metal box on the table and stepped aside, preparing to watch the show.

Liu Ce had indeed studied at Harvard Medical School, but after five or six years, he didn’t finish his doctorate. His family background was almost exhausted, forcing him to drop out and return home.

Not long after returning home, he met Sunx Jianhong’s daughter at a gathering. Learning she came from a wealthy family, he pursued her persistently.

With the title of a medical doctor, he easily won over Sunx Jianhong’s family and became their prospective son-in-law, even being asked to see patients.

Even though he didn’t graduate, cardiovascular diseases are a global problem. With some pretense, he could fool them. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Unexpectedly, he encountered Zhang Dadan and was coerced into a medical competition. Luckily, he had a foundation in Western medicine and wasn’t afraid.

Liu Ce opened the medical box, took out a stethoscope, walked to Zhang Dadan, and coolly ordered, "Where is your stomach uncomfortable? Let me check."

Sitting on the chair, Zhang Dadan patted the area around his stomach and said, "Here, it feels uncomfortable, seems like the stomach."

Hearing this, Liu Ce placed the stethoscope on his stomach and listened carefully. He noticed active bowel sounds, likely acute gastroenteritis.

But he just said he wanted to compete with me in medical skills, and now he’s got acute gastroenteritis? That’s too strange, too coincidental!

Could he control his symptoms? Or does he really feel unwell and wants me to treat him?

Liu Ce took off the stethoscope, fell into silence, with mixed feelings; it was his first time meeting Nana’s grandfather, he couldn’t lose face!

Seeing him silent, the proud Sunx Jianhong urged, "Xiaoce, what’s wrong? Does he have any illness?"

Seeing Liu Ce contemplating, Zhang Dadan pretended to have a stomach ache, with beads of sweat starting to form on his face.

Standing before Zhang Dadan, Liu Ce saw this and felt confident, smiling, "He has acute gastroenteritis!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stared at Zhang Dadan, noticing his slightly pale complexion and sweating forehead, they couldn’t help but believe Liu Ce’s words.

Despite feeling displeased, Sunx Jian Country showed concern, "Divine Doctor Zhang, are you alright? Do you need any medicine?"

Seeing this, Liu Ce was ready to show his skills and prescribe medicine. However, Zhang Dadan immediately stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and laughed, "Acute gastroenteritis? I was just messing with you!"

Enhancing bowel sounds and forcing out some sweat through spiritual energy, Zhang Dadan successfully deceived Liu Ce.

Now that Liu Ce had fallen for it, it was Zhang Dadan’s turn to perform. He patted the still-stunned Liu Ce and shook his head, "I was faking an illness, and you, a medical doctor, couldn’t identify it?"

"Is Harvard Medical School all show? Or is it that you’re not even a Harvard Medical School doctor?"

Zhang Dadan’s questions hit Liu Ce to the core, making him panic and exclaim, "You... you tricked me! You’re really a charlatan!"

Embarrassed, Sunx Jianhong heard Liu Ce’s rebuttal and quickly fanned the flames, "See? Caught in the act, right?"

"You charlatan, trying to trick our Xiaoce? Our Xiaoce always knew you were faking it. He said you had acute gastroenteritis just to expose you!"

Expose me? Hearing this, Zhang Dadan felt like kneeling to this woman. Your skill in spouting nonsense and twisting the truth really is unrivaled!

The people in the room, seeing Sunx Jianhong’s shameless behavior, shook their heads to express their disdain.

Seeing his face lost, Xiaoce insisted Zhang Dadan was a fraud, saying, "Zhang Dadan, stop being stubborn. I merely tested you a little, and you were exposed!"

Exposed? Zhang Dadan glared viciously at Liu Ce and sneered, "Liu the Turtle, I’ll show you what it means to be exposed!"

Then, he suddenly reached out his right hand to check Liu Ce’s pulse. Liu Ce, startled by the sudden move, quickly withdrew his hand.

But it was too late. With Divine Doctor Zhang’s medical skills, just a slight touch confirmed his suspicion.

Zhang Dadan wickedly smiled and teased, "Liu the bastard, you must have flirted with a lot of foreign girls in the United States, right?"

The crowd in the room was stunned to hear such vulgar talk from Zhang Dadan.

Sunx Yan frowned and cursed softly, "Shameless, immoral... at such a moment, he still cares about these gossips!"
