As soon as these words were spoken, the military doctors were stunned.

No one expected Shi Man to have concocted this prescription herself.

Could it be that she knew medicine?

However, if a medicine that even the director could not concoct was concocted by a young lady like her, it would definitely lose some credibility.

Cong Wei was the first to raise his doubts.

He was one of the best among the younger generation of military doctors and the most outstanding student under Director Zhao.

He was confident that his medical skills were unparalleled among the younger generation, so he naturally did not believe that Shi Man could concoct this prescription.

“Instructor Shi, you have to think before you talk big. Are you joking with my teacher? How could you concoct this medicine?”

He had just carefully identified the ingredients. Even he did not know that some medicine had such an effect. How could Shi Man make it?

Director Zhao De was also stunned. He was not as domineering as Cong Wei, but he smiled in disbelief and said, “It’s fine if Instructor Shi doesn’t want to tell me which famous doctor made this prescription. I don’t have to ask for a copy.”

Seeing that they did not believe her, Shi Man completely lost the desire to share.

To think that because she was in a good mood just now, she wanted to do something good to benefit the soldiers at the front line and provide them with better medical support.

Now, their reaction completely extinguished her interest.

Shi Man shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “I concocted this medicine myself. If you don’t believe me, forget it. Just pretend you’ve never seen it before.”

With that, she suddenly stretched out her hand and gestured for Zhao De to return the medicine bottle to her.

Zhao De suddenly felt a little reluctant.

He had been developing medicine his entire life and had a natural obsession with medicine. Now that he had encountered such a good medicine, he was naturally unwilling to let go.

Cong Wei saw through his teacher’s thoughts and said coldly, “Instructor Shi, how much is this bottle of medicine? I’ll spend money to buy it and give it to Teacher for research. It can be considered as doing my best for Lu Jun.”

He deliberately mentioned Lu Jun because he didn’t want to give Shi Man the chance to refuse.

However, what he did not expect was that Shi Man would not give anyone face when she was cold.

“I’m not selling,” she rejected coldly.

Since they were unwilling to return it, she might as well snatch it herself. Then, before they could react, she put the medicine bottle in her pocket.

“Didn’t you hear what I just said?” Cong Wei glared at her with an unfriendly expression.

Shi Man said disdainfully, “1 heard you. 1 said I’m not selling. Didn’t you hear me?”

Cong Wei took a step forward angrily, his cold gaze like a poisonous snake. “As an instructor, you naturally have to consider the army at all times. You’re extremely selfish if you don’t donate such a good medicine! Is this how you set an example?”

These words were meant to coerce Shi Man.

However, Shi Man did not fall for this trick.

She looked back at him expressionlessly and sneered. “Looking at the ring on your finger, it should be a wedding ring, right? Many soldiers in the army don’t have time to get married because they’re stationed at the border. Why don’t you donate your wife? Is this considered selfless and setting an example?” “What nonsense are you talking about!” Cong Wei roared.

He had always been a favored son of heaven. Although he was young, he had deep attainments in medicine. No one had ever dared to speak to him like this. This woman was really arrogant and shameless!

It was said that she had an ambiguous relationship with Lu Li previously. Cong Wei knew at a glance that she was not a well-behaved woman and looked so seductive. Perhaps she had relied on seducing Lu Li to make Chief Lu treat her differently and induct her into the army using his power.

In fact, she had no ability at all!

Chu Yue was naturally happy to see someone target Shi Man with her. She watched silently from the side.

It was also at this moment that the male soldiers’ long-distance running finally ended. They were actually two to three minutes later than the female soldiers.

This was an unprecedented gap.

Yue Ming’s face instantly darkened.

If not for those idiots insisting on holding a cripple for the assessment just now, they could clearly be faster than Cheng Luo and the others!

Still…

Thinking of the points Cheng Luo had lost to him in the morning, Yue Ming’s heart, which was about to explode, eased a lot.

It was impossible for her to easily surpass such a huge gap.

Even though Cheng Luo had won once, he was still confident that he could defeat her in the end.

At this moment, he had just exchanged supplies when he noticed the commotion here. He immediately frowned and walked over in surprise.

When he saw Chu Yue, Yue Ming nodded slightly to greet her.

Chu Yue did not mind his perfunctory attitude. After all, Yue Ming was just a tool for her to take down Shi Man.

At this moment, Cong Wei was completely angered by Shi Man and roared at her relentlessly, “If you have the ability, repeat what you said just now! Don’t think that you can look down on everyone just because you have Chief Lu behind you. Let me tell you, I’m definitely going to take the medicine in your hand today!”

“What medicine?” Yue Ming asked the woman beside him in surprise.

Chu Yue glanced at him indifferently and said arrogantly, “It’s a very effective medicine. Shi Man said that she made it..”
