Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 191

Disdain flashed across Gwen’s face. Leo already hated her to death. If she made such a public statement, all her teammates would hate her, too. She was about to refuse when Mina rushed over. “100 do it.”

Taking the microphone from the staff, Mina said in front of everyone, “Hello, everyone. I’m Mina, a member of the modern medicine team. I believe you know about the bet the traditional and modern medicine teams made yesterday. I’m officially announcing that the modern medicine team has lost yesterday’s debate, and the traditional medicine team has won.” Hearing Mina’s announcement, applause could be heard everywhere. Gwen was speechless. She thought, “Mina, which bastard sent you to sabotage our team?”

If she had known that Mina would trick her, she would have admitted that she had pimples on her face. After the bet was over, the traditional and modern medicine teams began to receive patients. There were two reception desks in the venue. The organizers were very thoughtful in choosing patients. Most of the patients were diagnosed with more severe illnesses, and all of them had the same or similar conditions.

For example, there were two patients in the first group. They were both in their forties and had liver cancer. In that situation, each of the traditional and modern medicine teams was arranged to treat one patient. Both teams’ doctors could assign their practitioners to treat the patients, or they could hold a group consultation.

The organizer would not reveal the patient’s condition to the traditional and modern medicine teams. The doctors would diagnose it themselves and create a treatment plan before treating it.

And the outcome would be determined by which side had developed a more effective treatment. Some patients had leukemia, liver cancer, rheumatism, and kidney stone… In addition to the examination table, the modern medicine team had also set up a separate room in the venue, complete with examination equipment.

On the other hand, the traditional medicine practitioner relied only on questioning the patients, observations, and their skills in taking the patient’s pulse. On the traditional medicine side, the first patient was received by a doctor named Ludwig Lane. All the doctors who were accepted into the traditional medicine team were famous throughout the country.

As soon as Ludwig took the patient’s pulse, his expression turned ugly. He asked the patient a few more questions. Behind the patient’s back, he wrote “Liver Cancer, Intermediate Stage” on his medical notepad. He told the patient his liver was damaged, but it was not a big problem. The patient would recover his full vigor after taking medicine for a year and a half.

The patient was overjoyed, but he was still worried. He asked why he was always in such a bad mood. Moreover, when he looked at himself in the mirror, he could feel that his face was pale. Sometimes, it would look red, and his skin would be extremely oily. And after washing his hair, it would become oily after less than half a day.

Ludwig comforted the patient and said that he would prescribe some medicine to help the patient recuperate. These symptoms were caused by some of the patient’s bad lifestyle habits. If the patient. maintained a happy mood, rested adequately, and took the prescribed medicine, he would slowly recover. The patient was relieved and left happily. As for the modern medicine team, the members went straight to the medical equipment for a checkup. Soon, they diagnosed the patient with liver cancer

Then, they checked the patient’s vitals and health indicators. Quickly, they determined a treatment plan. Partial hepatectomy would be performed on the patient. And after the hepatectomy, chemotherapy and radiation therapy would be carried out. On the traditional medicine practitioners’ side…

Ludwig looked troubled as he discussed with Jonathan. “Professor Woods, I feel that the organizers are making things difficult for us. We are traditional medicine practitioners. Without surgery, we can’t treat such an illness with traditional treatment methods alone.”
