The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Charlie asked again, "How did you choose the test subject at the time? Is there a possibility that this person arranged for a patient to come over in advance and secretly colluded with her before he then came looking for you to propose the method of competition to win you?"

"Well..." Anthony pondered for a moment and murmured, "I don't have any evidence to prove it, but I can't rule out this possibility."

After saying that, Anthony said seriously, "But Master Wade, Taoism has always placed emphasis on cultivating one's mind and nature, so Master Howton shouldn't be so shameless, right?"

Charlie asked him again, "If he's really a person with a cultivated mind and nature, why would he come here to bet with others? It's just like the monks in the temple and priests in the church. How could they really cultivate their mind and nature if they hang out with those rich and powerful people all day long?

The reason why Charlie said this was because Quinn had mentioned that Master Howton had a close relationship with his grandmother.

In Charlie's opinion, the first thing that a person with true faith should do was to be indifferent toward fame and fortune. If a person spent all his time and energy on making friends with rich and powerful people, how could he truly have a pure heart?

It was naturally the same for Master Howton.

It was no exaggeration to say that it was absolutely impossible for a person like Master Howton to befriend a top dignitary such as Charlie's grandmother.

If Master Howton had not spent decades carefully managing himself, promoting himself, and managing himself, how could Charlie's grandmother even take notice of him?

It could be seen from this point alone that this person's utilitarianism was bound to be very heavy.

Was there anything unusual about a person with a utilitarian mind to come up with some tricks when making a bet?

Xyla also came to a sudden realization at this time and blurted out, "You're right, Master Wade! I think that person is very shrewd, and his words are also very provocative! At that time, he had just said a few words in front of the patients which made it very difficult for Grandpa to turn him down. It would have been really awkward for Grandpa if Grandpa hadn't agreed to compete with him at the time! So, now that you've mentioned the possibility of him preparing the patient in advance, I really think that it's possible that he really did that!"

Anthony sighed and said, "It's too late to mention this now. There were many patients who saw me lose to him on the spot at the time. My name Anthony Simmons, and the words, Serene World Clinic, have been ruined in Aurous Hill, and there's no way to salvage it even if we know that he cheated."

Charlie smiled slightly and said, "That's not necessarily true."

After saying that, he thought of something and asked Anthony, "By the way, Dr. Simmons, you said that he has an ancestral medicine cauldron. What kind of medicine cauldron is it?"

Anthony hurriedly said, "It's the cauldron used for Taoist alchemy which is about the size of a football It looks like it's made out of copper, and the shape of the vessel is long, three-legged, with a cupola and a matching lid. The surface of the entire cauldron has dragon patterns made out of filigree which looks very exquisite. According to him, it was handed down by his ancestors and is specially used for refining pills."

Charlie raised his brows with great interest and said with a smile, "Perhaps this thing is really good for alchemy."

After saying that, he asked Anthony, "Did the man say when he will be coming over?"noveldrama

Anthony hurriedly said, "He said that he will come on time at eight o'clock in the morning tomorrow to hang up the signboard he left at the entrance."

Charlie remembered the signboard covered with the red satin silk at the entrance, smiled slightly, and walked out the door.

After standing in front of the signboard, Charlie stretched out his hand unceremoniously and pulled off the red satin silk, revealing the words plated in gold: Celestial Hall.

Charlie snorted, then pulled the ladder from the side, picked up Serene World Clinic's signboard with one hand, and put the signboard back up.

Anthony said nervously, "Master Wade, you can't do that... If you hang the signboard, wouldn't it mean that I'm not willing to admit defeat even though I lost the bet?"

Charlie said with a smile, "It's okay. I hung the signboard to let him know that this matter has taken a turn for the worse, so he will definitely rush over to deal with it. I will come and meet him when the time comes, then!"
