562: Chapter 562: Ate You 562: Chapter 562: Ate You “What ace in the hole, the ace in the hole of the Western medicine delegation, it must be that other Biomedical Remedy they mentioned, Nathan had talked about it, right?” Yu Zhaoke said.
Chairman Bi nodded and said, “Yes, that’s right, it should be that Biomedical Remedy.
This time they’ve brought two types of Biomedical Remedy.
We’ve already seen DHA5.
The other one that has been kept hidden until the final event must be even more formidable than DHA5.
Moreover, this time, their confidence is unprecedentedly strong.
Therefore, the battle this afternoon will be incredibly tough, but I believe in all of you, no matter what, you are the best.
Of course, I hope even more that you can win this battle and truly make Traditional Chinese Medicine invincible.”
“Chairman Bi, what are the rules for this exchange?” Tangyu asked.
Chairman Bi replied, “There are no specific rules; whoever can cure all the patients most efficiently and quickly wins.
Tangyu, you have cured this kind of disease, so tell us how we should deal with it.
If there’s anything you need me to prepare, I’ll figure out a way to get it ready for you.”
Tangyu shook his head and said, “There’s nothing much to prepare.
Since the Western medicine team came prepared and they proposed this exchange, they clearly have made thorough preparations.
It certainly has to do with the Biomedical Remedy, which I suppose is used for detoxification.
Even the most precious detoxifying traditional medicine is in vain, as traditional medicine reacts slower than Biomedical Remedy.
So, we can only fight hard.
I am capable of curing this disease, but with over a hundred people, I can’t cure everyone.”
“This is too unfair, why is it that every time the exchange projects are proposed by them, the Western medicine side?
They proposed the first three events, and even in this final round, it’s our turn, right??” Yu Zhaoke complained.
Chairman Bi replied, “I understand everyone’s feelings, but some things are out of our hands, and we must make concessions.
This time, the East-West Medical Exchange was initiated by America, and it was even proposed through diplomatic channels.
Although we all know this is a long-premeditated battle by Western medicine to suppress Traditional Chinese Medicine, officially, it is still a friendly exchange.
As the hosts and a nation of etiquette, we still need to maintain our demeanor.
Thus, all the events of this exchange were proposed by them.
But precisely because of this, I think it shows the true depth and breadth of Traditional Chinese Medicine even more.
What convincingly wins people over is when the opponent uses their strength against us, and still loses.
So, I hope everyone can calm down.
What we should focus on is how to face the battle.”
“How can we fight when even Captain Tang says it’s not possible?
We’re definitely going to lose this time,” Yu Zhaoke said.
Ye Mai said, “Don’t demoralize ourselves and boost others’ morale.
The competition hasn’t even started and you’re thinking of admitting defeat?”
“It’s not that I want to concede, it’s just the reality in front of us.
You’ve also dealt with those patients, you should know, right?” Yu Zhaoke said.
Ye Mai replied, “I know, I’m indeed not sure I can cure it well, but I believe in Tangyu, I believe in Divine Needle, I believe in Doctor Xiao, I believe they will find a way.
No matter what, we should still try our hardest.”
Chairman Bi looked towards Rao Yuanzhi and Doctor Xiao and asked, “What do you two think?”
Rao Yuanzhi shook his head and said, “Although I haven’t dealt with such patients, from what Tangyu has described, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to save one or two.
But now, with over a hundred people, and just the three of us, the efficiency is too slow.”
“My efficiency isn’t fast either.
Over a hundred people mean each of us will have to take care of forty to fifty, not to mention an afternoon—even a full day might not be enough to cure them all,” Doctor Xiao added.
Chairman Bi’s expression also became slightly stern, suggesting that the Traditional Chinese Medicine team was indeed facing a challenge.
Everyone fell silent, the immense pressure weighing heavily on them.
The joy they initially felt was completely dissolved.
If they lost the final event that afternoon, at best they would tie with the Western medicine team.
Although such a result would already be splendid, it wasn’t the outcome everyone wanted to see.
Traditional Chinese Medicine being invincible should not just be a slogan.
Moreover, they were now in a position where even a tie would mean bearing a burden of criticism.
After all, results often speak louder and are more convincing than the process or the reasons behind them.
The fervor stirred by this East-West Medical Conference had reached a point where they could not afford to lose.
If they lost, it meant Traditional Chinese Medicine lost.
Tangyu clenched his teeth and said, “Everyone, don’t panic; it’s not completely hopeless.
Trust me, I’ve said Traditional Chinese Medicine is invincible, and I will not let my own words trip me up.
No matter what, we cannot lose this afternoon.”
Everyone looked at Tangyu, wondering if he also had an ace up his sleeve.
Chairman Bi looked at Tangyu, feeling somewhat reassured by his words.
He never doubted Tangyu, and since he said there was a way, there had to be a way: “Alright, everyone go and rest a bit then, conserve your energy for the big battle this afternoon.”
Everyone got up and went to their rooms to rest.
Tangyu and Liu Shiyi, whose rooms were adjacent, naturally went together.
When they reached the door, Liu Shiyi turned to Tangyu and asked, “Are you going to rest at noon?”
“I’m not used to taking a nap at noon, how about you?” Tangyu replied.
Liu Shiyi shook her head and said, “I can’t sleep.
Then, I’ll come sit in your room.”
Tangyu laughed, “Aren’t you afraid of being misunderstood by others?”
Liu Shiyi glared at Tangyu, still in the mood for jokes at such a time, “I’ve already been misunderstood by others; even if I jump into the Yellow River, I can’t clear my name anymore.
I might as well just go for broke; what’s there to be afraid of?
Do you really think I’m afraid you’d eat me up but not spit me out?”
Tangyu seriously sized up Liu Shiyi, and after a while, he laughed somewhat lewdly, “You’re so beautiful, and your figure is so great.
If we two, a lone man and a single woman, stay in the same room, and you want to go for broke with me, I feel like not ‘eating’ you would be a disservice to you, right?
We have some time at noon, so why don’t we just turn this misunderstanding into reality since you’re not afraid anymore?”
Liu Shiyi rolled her eyes at Tangyu, annoyed, “What time do you think it is to be joking with me?
Who said I wanted to go for broke with you?
Cut the sweet talk; I don’t believe you dare to ‘eat’ me.
If you have the guts, just try; I’m not afraid of you.” After that, Liu Shiyi snatched the room card from Tangyu’s hand, took the initiative to open the door for Tangyu, and without waiting for him to invite her in, she walked straight into the room.
Tangyu also shook his head, laughed, followed her in, and casually closed the door behind him.
Liu Shiyi didn’t sit on the sofa but lay down on Tangyu’s bed, “Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance.
Either eat me now or just shut up.” As she said this, Liu Shiyi’s mind also heated up.
What was she doing?
Was this fighting or something else?
How could she do such a thing?
It was seriously embarrassing.
Tangyu was also stunned, looking at Liu Shiyi lying on the bed as if waiting for his favor, thinking to himself, what has gotten into Liu Shiyi?
Has she really been stimulated by what I just said, or has she turned the tables on me?
This move was indeed quite baffling for Tangyu.
Liu Shiyi didn’t seem like such a liberated woman; what was off today?
Could it be, she was trying to outplay him?
“All lust and no courage, still being mouthy, I knew you didn’t dare to ‘eat’ me.
You had the chance, yet you didn’t dare to make a move, still having the nerve to joke about this with me.
Forget it, if you’re too scared, I’ll get up; don’t blame me for not giving you the chance to show off,” Liu Shiyi said.
These words did sting Tangyu a bit.
What did she mean by saying he didn’t dare?
Was there anything he didn’t dare to do?
In his mind, a sudden rush of impulse surged up, like a burst of testosterone crazily secreting.
Suddenly, like a hungry wolf, Tangyu pounced and pinned Liu Shiyi beneath him.
The previously fearless Liu Shiyi suddenly became flustered, her face instantly flushing red, her eyes flickering with panicked colors, her hands forcefully pushing Tangyu, trying to push him away, “What are you doing?
Get off me.”
“Didn’t you tell me to ‘eat’ you?
Did you really think I didn’t dare?
I’ll ‘eat’ you now, so you can see,” Tangyu said, his eyes gleaming lewdly, his hormones genuinely stirred up by Liu Shiyi.
“I was just kidding with you, get up now, you’re so heavy, I can’t breathe, get up now, I know you dare,” Liu Shiyi desperately shook her head, pushing hard against Tangyu.
The more Liu Shiyi resisted, however, the more it ignited Tangyu’s desire.
Sometimes a man’s desires are not sparked by greed, but by this kind of resistance.
There’s a saying, what you can’t have is always the best, and maybe that’s the truth.
“Just now you had such a brave look, weren’t you provoking me?
So why are you scared now that I am serious?
You were playing me, weren’t you?” Tangyu said.
“I wasn’t playing you, okay, Tangyu, let’s stop now, you’ve got lust and courage, okay, ugh—”
Liu Shiyi couldn’t even finish her sentence before her mouth was blocked by Tangyu.
Initially, Tangyu had no ulterior motives towards Liu Shiyi, but her antics had heated his mind, and now, pressing on her as his desire rapidly escalated, he became even more impulsive.
Seeing Liu Shiyi resisting in such a manner also inevitably made Tangyu feel unable to stop himself.
Men can sometimes be despicable, and perhaps this was precisely one of those moments for Tangyu.
With that kiss, Liu Shiyi suddenly stiffened, her eyes wide, her hands clutching Tangyu’s clothes tightly, but soon her whole body went limp, melting into Tangyu’s embrace.
Her eyes slowly closed and her arms slowly wrapped around him, letting him lead.
Kissing was no longer awkward for Tangyu now; with some practical experience, it came naturally.
Liu Shiyi’s breathing became rapid, her body heated up, and she unconsciously moved slightly, even letting out a series of soft moans, intoxicating to hear.
These intoxicating sounds naturally stimulated Tangyu further, and their bodies clung tightly together, as if trying to merge into one.
With passions so deep, it was only natural that one thing led to another, and Tangyu’s hand began to wander towards that sacred place.
“No!” Liu Shiyi suddenly cried out, her eyes flying open, and with strength from who knows where, she pushed Tangyu off her, sending him tumbling to the floor with a heavy thud.
