The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Xyla felt very aggrieved and she was very unconvinced at this time. Therefore, she gritted her teeth before she said, "I want to compete with him and if he's really capable, I'll definitely apologize to him then.” 2

"How long are you going to keep up this attitude of yours?” Anthony yelled in anger as he stared at his granddaughter. 3

The middle-aged man from the Moore family was also stunned at this time. No one would have expected Charlie to have better strength and skills compared to the famous Dr. Simmons.

Reuben was also very confused at this time. What was Dr. Simmons saying? Did he mean that this young man actually had some skills? 2

How could this be possible?

Could they really rely on him?

Was Anthony really convinced by Charlie’s skills?

At this time, Charlie glanced at Xyla and he could tell that she was really unhappy. Her face was flushed red with anger and she had a very dissatisfied expression on her face. Charlie found that hilarious and hence, he asked, "How would you like to compete with me?” 5

"We’ll compete based on our medical skills, of course!”

Xyla replied as she rolled her eyes at Charlie.

However, she had a happier expression on her face as she continued speaking. "The basis of Chinese medicine is to see, hear, and tell. Therefore, we'll compete based on this fact! Everyone in

this room has their own symptoms and discomfort and we'll both have to point out what is wrong with them! 3

They would not be allowed to check pulses and they would have to point out illnesses just by looking at their faces. This was very challenging indeed.

In fact, even Dr. Simmons might not be able to point out someone’s illness completely just by looking at their faces.

However, this was Xyla’s special ability. She had been by her grandfather’s side since she was just a year old and she had already seen more than tens of thousands of patients at this time. 2

She had an amazing memory and she could remember the symptoms of every 'illness' that she had ever seen, as well as classify all these illnesses into different classes. 1

Over time, she was able to tell the illness and condition of others simply by looking at their faces. 1 NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

"Xyla, aren’t you making things difficult for Mr. Wade?" Anthony asked in dissatisfaction.

However, no one expected Charlie to simply nod and smile before he replied, "Alright then. I'll compete with you."

As soon as Charlie agreed to compete against Xyla, Anthony did not say anything else and he simply got ready to see the show.

"I'll start first," Xyla replied in a delighted manner.

After that, she stepped forward before she walked in front of the crowd of people as she observed their faces carefully, one at a time. 5

About ten minutes later, Xyla smiled before she replied, “Based on the horizontal stripes on his forehead, I'm certain that Uncle Moore has high blood pressure. He's usually on a light diet because he cannot eat too much meat and fish." 1

As soon as she was done speaking, the middle-aged man from the Moore family exclaimed, "You're really a genius, Miss Xyla! I do have high blood pressure."

After that, Xyla pointed at Reuben before she said," The area below your brows are red and your eyes are cloudy. You have a pulmonary infection and you've just recovered recently.” 3

Reuben smiled before he replied, "I really admire your skills, Miss Xyla. I was coughing a lot because I had a lung infection last week. However, I’ve already seen a doctor and I've already fully recovered now."

After that, Xyla continued, "As for Miss Moore, there are some irregularities in your period but this should b e due to stress and because you’ve been overworking yourself." 4

Jasmine nodded and replied, "You're right."

Xyla pointed out each and every one of their illnesses and symptoms and they were all accurate.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised at this time and they could not stop praising Anthony for teaching his granddaughter so well. 4

Anthony was also very proud of his granddaughter.

Xyla finally looked at Charlie before she smiled and said in a triumphant manner, "However, Mr. Wade, I really did not expect you to have the most serious condition here! It seems as though there are some serious issues with your heart!" 5

Charlie smiled before he said, "Well, I really did not expect you to have such amazing medical skills at your young age and I really admire you for it.

However, you’ve omitted some information, so let me add that on for you."
