C29 Candidates

Could it be that this girl couldn't deny her loss and had gone insane?

Just as the old man was silently blaming himself for what he had just done, Zhuang Qing suddenly stood up and stroked the table as the smile in her eyes became increasingly radiant.

"Old man, have you thought about it? Do you really want to compete with me? Not regretting? "

"Little girl, I truly suspect what sort of family you are from. It actually gave birth to a girl like you who doesn't know your limits. Let me tell you, since I said it, there is no reason to regret it."

Hearing this, the guilt in the old man's heart vanished. He blew on his beard and shouted.

"Alright, since old man you do not regret it, then there is no point in this competition if there is no wager, how about this, if I win, you have to agree to one of my requests, do you agree to it?" After pondering for a moment, Zhuang Qing said with a smile.

"Okay, but what if I win? "Little girl, what are you going to do about it?"

"Naturally, I will follow whatever you say." Zhuang Qing said confidently, but the smile in her eyes was like that of a fox's.

What sort of evil scheme was this woman up to?

Gazing at the side of the woman's face, Xie Xiang guessed to himself.

Although they hadn't known each other for long, he knew that this little girl wasn't someone who was at a disadvantage. Since she was able to fight, it meant that she had complete confidence, so he wasn't worried that she would lose.

Moreover, from the fact that she was able to easily cure him, it was clear that her medical skills were superior and could not be compared to a village doctor like the old man.

"You guys are competing in my medicine store, if I, the host, don't bet, if word of this gets out, I'm afraid people will say that I'm petty. How about this, no matter who wins in the end, I'll agree to one of his requests."

Su Nian smiled as he looked at the two people. Suddenly, he said with a smile.

"Shopkeeper, you …" When the old man heard Su Nian's words, he seemed rather surprised. He could not help but turn his head, but before he could finish, Zhuang Qing's excited laughter rang out beside his ear.

"In that case, thank you, Shopkeeper, for your generosity."

Ai, shopkeeper, are you mad? Was this a request that could be accepted as and when he wished? The old man could not help but let out a long sigh in his heart. It seemed that the shopkeeper would definitely win this match if he didn't get tired of this gamble.

As he thought of this, the old man let out another long sigh. After a long while, he finally raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Qing and coughed loudly.

"This old man has been practicing medicine for decades, so you should be the one to bring up the competition. I don't want others to say that I am bullying a junior like you."

"Old man, no matter who sets the question, it would be unfair for us to fight. Thus, if we want to win in a fair manner, we can only do it by giving a question."

When he said the three words' old man ', Zhuang Qing purposefully emphasized his words. The old man's face darkened upon hearing Zhuang Qing's words and he couldn't help but ask.

"Letting an outsider set a question, you're not saying that you want to give it to …?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance back at the two remaining people, which he then focused on Su Nian.

"Let my family's storekeeper set the question."

My husband does not recognize medical skills, so this time, he cannot set up a question. Since your shopkeeper has opened a medicinal shop, he must have a wide range of knowledge regarding medicinal plants, and his character is decent.

At the end of his words, Zhuang Qing had openly put on a tall hat for Su Nian. Immediately, a smile blossomed on Su Nian's face, but behind him, Xie Xiang's expression darkened.

[I didn't expect him to be a total fawn!]

The old man secretly cursed in his heart, but there was a trace of contempt in his eyes.

However, she had to admit that her words were reasonable. Although her shopkeeper did things craftily, he had an upright character and was indeed the best candidate to set the question.

But what would the shopkeeper ask?

Curious, the old man looked towards his shopkeeper, who was staring at Zhuang Qing with a radiant smile.
