Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 20: Chapter 020 Hidden Task

Lin Chen hadn’t expected such a delicate and beautiful woman to come up with such a ruthless way of getting even.

”What, getting cold feet?” Su Yun looked at Lin Chen and sneered.

”Of course not. What will you do if you lose?” Lin Chen teased Su Yun, his gaze filled with challenge.

”Whatever you want, you’re not going to win anyway,” Su Yun said confidently.

Of course, her confidence was not without reason; if coronary heart disease could be cured with just a massage, it wouldn’t be known as the number one killer of humanity.

”Alright, don’t regret it later,” Lin Chen said with a mischievous grin.

”I won’t regret it. I want to see you walking around the hospital with a sign,” Su Yun huffed dismissively, convinced that Lin Chen’s so-called confidence was just an act.

Hearing Su Yun’s words, Lin Chen smiled dismissively and said, ”Okay then, let’s start!”

”Let’s start,” Su Yun said as she brought out the testing equipment to begin examining Zhao Gang.

As the machine started up, Su Yun felt nervous for some reason, while Lin Chen appeared indifferent.

When the test results came out, Su Yun was stunned looking at the lab report.

How could this be, heart rate normal, blood pressure normal, all the data within normal ranges.

”How are the results?” Wu Mei asked worriedly.

Looking at the lab report, Su Yun shook her head, ”The machine might be malfunctioning, we need to test again.”

After another test, the results were the same as before.

Now, Su Yun was completely flabbergasted. Zhao Gang’s condition was very severe within cases of coronary heart disease; such a medical record could only possibly return to normal with surgery.

Yet now, the patient’s data was completely normal, which was almost beyond her belief. Could it really be the result of this young man’s massage?

”Dr. Su, how’s my husband’s condition? Has that kid made it worse?” Wu Mei, seeing Su Yun speechless, asked anxiously.

Su Yun snapped back to reality and shook her head, ”Mr. Zhao doesn’t need surgery; he has completely recovered.”

”What!” Wu Mei was shocked upon hearing Su Yun’s words.

Recalling what she had just said about Lin Chen, her face burnt with embarrassment.

”Lin Chen, I... I was a bit too anxious earlier and said some unpleasant things. Please don’t take it to heart,” Wu Mei apologized, her face red.

”Auntie, don’t worry, I’m not upset, as long as Uncle Zhao is fine, that’s all that matters,” Lin Chen replied magnanimously.

Seeing how understanding Lin Chen was, and thinking about her own behavior, Wu Mei felt even more embarrassed.

Lin Chen’s gaze shifted to Su Yun, and he said cheerfully, ”Dr. Su, it seems you’ve lost!”

”Mr. Zhao’s condition was really cured by your massage?” Su Yun’s face flushed with embarrassment, she had never considered the possibility of losing, which is why she had agreed to the bet, but now the impossible had happened, and she had lost.

Looking at Su Yun’s cheeks turning bright red, Lin Chen couldn’t help but chuckle, ”Of course, it wasn’t me? Could it have been you? Dr. Su, can’t accept defeat?”

”Who said I can’t accept defeat? Go ahead, make your demand,” Su Yun said through clenched teeth.

Lin Chen eyed Su Yun with not-so-pure intentions: ”You said earlier that if you lost, you’d let me deal with it, right?”

Seeing Lin Chen’s sly gaze, Su Yun suddenly tensed up and watched him warily, ”If your request is too much, I won’t agree to it.”

Lin Chen smiled and said, ”Don’t worry, Dr. Su, my request is very simple, merely for you to say to me, ’Brother, I was wrong, please forgive me.’”

”What?!”

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Su Yun erupted, her temper flaring. She was a distinguished medical doctor with an international education, and with her beauty and demeanor, she was considered an ice queen by men. How could she possibly call a young upstart ’brother’ and publicly apologize?

After hesitating for a moment, Su Yun asked with a red face, ”Can we change the request?”

”Of course not,” Lin Chen shook his head.

”I’ll treat you to dinner.”

”Sorry, I’m busy.”

”Can’t we change the condition?” Su Yun still didn’t give up.

”No, if you can’t afford to lose, then just pretend I never mentioned it,” Lin Chen shrugged.

Seeing Lin Chen remain unmoved, Su Yun couldn’t help stomping her foot in frustration: ”Just call, what’s the big deal.”

”Then call quickly, good little sister, your brother is listening!” Lin Chen crossed his arms, smiling at Su Yun.

”Brother, your sister was wrong, please spare me,” Su Yun said with a red face, her voice barely a whisper.

Lin Chen cleaned his ears: ”The voice is too quiet, I only heard a mosquito buzzing!”

”You...” Su Yun, infuriated and itching for retaliation, finally raised her voice: ”Brother, your sister was wrong, please spare me.”

This time, Lin Chen finally nodded in satisfaction: ”Well, good sister, your brother forgives you.”

Watching the two young people quarrel, Zhao Gang and Wu Mei at the side couldn’t help but laugh in amusement, while only Zhao Xiaowen pouted unhappily.

”Xiaowen, what’s wrong, you seem a bit unhappy?” As soon as Su Yun left, Lin Chen noticed that Zhao Xiaowen’s expression wasn’t quite right.

”I’m fine.” For some reason, watching Lin Chen and Su Yun argue gave Zhao Xiaowen a sour taste in her heart.

”Oh, good as long as it’s nothing. Uncle, auntie, I still have some things to take care of at home, so I’ll be leaving first,” Lin Chen sighed in relief and bid farewell to Xiaowen’s parents.

”Lin Chen, we owe you a lot for today, I’ll definitely visit your house to express my thanks,” Zhao Gang was growing fond of Lin Chen, even starting to have that feeling of seeing the more he looked at a prospective son-in-law, the more pleased he became.

”Uncle Zhao, we’re all from the same neighborhood, you’re too polite. Even though the illness has improved, you should still take care to maintain your health,” Lin Chen cautioned.

”Alright, I’ll be sure to keep that in mind. Xiaowen, see Lin Chen out for me,” Zhao Gang said, glancing at his daughter, who seemed out of sorts.

”Okay,” Zhao Xiaowen nodded and followed Lin Chen out of the ward.

Walking side by side down the hospital corridor, Xiaowen suddenly stopped: ”Lin Chen, thank you for today. Please don’t take my mother’s words to heart.”

”Rest assured, I won’t,” Lin Chen said with a smile.

Zhao Xiaowen’s eyes fixed on Lin Chen as she suddenly spoke with great determination: ”Lin Chen, I like you!”

After saying that, Zhao Xiaowen’s cheeks flushed red, and she ran back to the ward.

Happiness came so unexpectedly that Lin Chen never thought that one day the unattainable school beauty in his heart would actually confess her liking for him. The feeling was beautiful, sweet, and exhilarating.

”Ding Dong, congratulations to host Lin Chen for receiving a girl’s confession for the first time in his life, activating a hidden mission. Would you like to activate it now?”

There was even a hidden mission, to Lin Chen’s delight, and he accepted the task almost without a second thought.

”Ding Dong, the host must use the medical skills from Divine Herbs to bring a patient back from the dead within an hour.”

”An hour? System, where am I supposed to find such a patient in such a short time?” Lin Chen was bewildered by the task at hand.

”The host must complete a task once accepted. Failure will result in the random removal of one of your Divine Skills.”

”What, there’s a penalty? You didn’t mention that before, system!” Lin Chen was even more astonished upon hearing that one of his Divine Skills could be randomly removed.

”The host didn’t inquire before, so the system didn’t have the obligation to inform?”

”System, look, we’ve known each other for so long and our relationship isn’t bad, can’t we switch to another task?” Lin Chen still held a glimmer of hope.

”Accepted tasks cannot be swapped. Please host hurry to complete the task.” After that, the system went silent.

Friendship can capsize in an instant, Lin Chen felt like crying but had no tears; had he known it would be like this, he wouldn’t have recklessly accepted the task.
