Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman

346- Fickleness (善变)

Currently, the ginseng was given to Tong Yann and Ji Shan Shan for safe-keeping, so even if some people were still dissatisfied, they could only complain internally and keep it to themselves as it was better than Jing Yun Zhao keeping the ginseng in her possession.

The next moment, a few elders started discussing the competition rules.

Since the value of Jing Yun Zhao’s wager was large, and Sun Yan was known for being a genius, the competition between the both of them were split into a few categories.

Moreover, to show how important these people treated this competition, they not only tidied up the whole courtyard, but they also re-arranged the competition site. In a short period of time, the whole courtyard suddenly had a different feel to it, with an empty space in the middle of the courtyard, and even dedicated seats were set up for the judges.

As for the judges, there were 9 of them and they were all highly respected within the medical field.

Naturally, since the Cui Family was involved in this competition, they couldn’t become one of the judges for the competition. However, the Ji Family could.

“Old Ji, I see the two children from both our families are getting bigger and older already, who knows that in the future we may all be part of the same family if they were to marry!” Cui Jun’s father said to Ji Shan Shan’s father before the competition started.

Since the Ji Family’s ancestors used to provide medicine for the imperial palace, as a result, the members of the Ji Family from then until today were all born with a sense of pride, and Ji Shan Shan herself and her family members were no different.

Father Ji was also a smart and wise man, so how could he not understand what Cui Jun’s father was insinuating?

Regardless, the competition was about to start and Cui Jun’s father was just reminding them again that it would be a wise choice to support them.

The more Father Ji thought about it, the more he felt suffocated in his heart. Although their relationship with the Cui Family was pretty good, it was only as peers, and they could be considered to be in the same alliance. However, if they were talking about a potential marriage between Cui Jun and his daughter, he couldn’t help but dislike Cui Jun.

Although Cui Jun wasn’t proficient in concocting medicine, with his genes, his future was still bright as he grew up to be a handsome young man and had excellent grades in his academics. The only problem was that he was too frivolous.

In his opinion, not only was Cui Jun arrogant and conceited, he treated people condescendingly and was also a schemer.

Not to mention the fact that his daughter was dim-witted, who’s to say that if he allowed her to marry Cui Jun, Cui Jun wouldn’t bully and treat her harshly.

His daughter was in love with Cui Jun, and with her rose-coloured lenses, she couldn’t tell that Cui Jun wasn’t in love with her at all and was just using her. Normally, making sarcastic comments or ridiculing her, and when he needed her help he would lower his voice and coax her gently.

Sigh, only the type of person like my daughter would consider the type of person like Cui Jun to be good.

Just like when Shan-shan and Jing Yun Zhao clashed 2 days ago, wasn’t it because of Cui Jun? Thankfully, Jing Yun Zhao didn’t have a high status even though she came here on behalf of Old Man Xu. If our Ji Family were to offend Old Man Xu, wouldn’t our future be dark and bleak?

Thinking till this point, Father Ji’s heart instantly turned cold.

“How can the feelings of a child be taken seriously? They may love one thing today, but there’s no guarantee that their taste will change the next day.” Father Ji coldly said, before continuing, “Take a look yourself, before my daughter looked tired when she was with your family’s Cui Jun, yet now look how blissful she is playing with Tong Yan, kids her age are the most fickle.”

Hearing Father Ji’s words, the face of Cui Jun’s father turned green.

Father Cui understood the clear refusal in Father Ji’s words, yet he disregarded it and chuckled while replying, “Such words cannot be spoken carelessly, your family’s Shan-shan has always adored my family’s Xiao-jun from a young age, I still remember she ran to our house that time, crying and screaming that she wanted to be Xiao-jun’s wife in the future!”

Ji Shan Shan with that stubborn temper of hers, if she really loves my son, then the Ji Family’s opinion wouldn’t even matter!

In any case, if they want our Cui Family to treat Ji Shan Shan kindly… Well then it depends on the action’s of her father!

Selfishly speaking, Father Cui was reluctant and afraid to consider Ji Shan Shan as part of his family in the future, since the members of the Cui Family all looked down on the brainless and dim-witted Ji Shan Shan!

Father Ji felt extremely depressed and helpless at the thought of her daughter and could only reply with a muffled voice, “We’ll talk again next time!”

Finishing his words, Father Ji instantly walked towards Ji Shan Shan.
