Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 203: Clumsy Trick!
Chapter 203 -203: Clumsy Trick!
Shen Zikuang froze.
His father wasn’t here to see him, and the joy wasn’t because his condition had improved…
It was because he had a favor to ask!
This was exactly as Qi Yue had said!
Indeed, the reason he had fallen to this state was inseparable from his father and his two supposedly loving brothers!!

In an instant, it felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, extinguishing the last spark of hope within his heart.
Could it really be that with a stepmother comes a stepfather?
Layers of hatred began to pile up in his heart, and he declared decisively, “I don’t know the prescription. If the medicine factory can’t continue, the pharmacists naturally will find other paths. How would I know where they are?”
Shen Wanzhen was not lightly angered by his words, but for some reason, he didn’t press him further, only leaving him with a sentence that baffled him.
“Just wait and see. Even if you don’t tell, sooner or later someone will find out!”
“What does that mean?”
Shen Zikuang hurriedly followed up, but he was met with another ambiguous statement from Shen Wanzhen.
“Kuangkuang, your father has treated you quite well these years, hasn’t he? Be content with what you have!”
This remark made Shen Zikuang even more baffled.

He wanted to ask why his father would treat him this way, but recalling Qi Yue’s advice to have enough patience to seek revenge, he held back his questions.
He would find out the truth sooner or later!
Sooner or later, he would have his revenge!
Before leaving, his father and brothers, once again urged him to move out quickly, stating that the Shen Family never had a place for him!
Shen Zikuang was greatly upset, but for the sake of Qi Yue’s plan, he suppressed his anger once more.
Madame Li was becoming impatient.
“Husband, the Divine Doctor Qi said to wait for the right time before we leave. When exactly will that be?”
“Just wait. Miss Qi will have a plan.”
The father and sons who had left were also discussing Qi Yue.
“Who would have thought Miss Qi’s medical skills were so formidable? If only we had known, we wouldn’t have treated your elder brother so harshly, at least not before he could get the medicine factory up and running!”
“Father, how can you say that? If elder brother really got the factory up and running, what would be left for the third brother, right, youngest brother?”
Shen Zifang snorted.
“Father, you’ve given him enough over the years, and even let him be the eldest son of the Shen Family for so long. That should suffice; why say such things.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Zizhen’s expression tightened. He looked around and chided, “Don’t talk nonsense outside, understand? If people find out that our father drove away an adopted son, where will our dignity be?”
Shen Zifang let out an “Oh,” but Shen Ziao smoothly shifted the topic back to Qi Yue.
“Father, it’s a small matter that Miss Qi has medical skills; what’s more important is that she’s really not bad-looking.”
He had been sick of talking about Shen Zikuang for a while now.
Ever since he last saw Qi Yue, she had lingered on his mind.
He also knew Shen Zizhen would never let him take over the Shen Family, so as long as he clung to the coattails of his youngest brother, splurging money and womanizing would be at his fingertips.
Sure enough, Shen Zifang looked at Shen Ziao gratefully and echoed, “Big brother has good taste, but you might as well forget about it. You don’t stand a chance!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ziao wasn’t pleased.
“What do you mean by that, youngest brother? Why wouldn’t I stand a chance?”

Shen Zifang chuckled and consoled him, “Big brother, am I not clear about your wishes? But I’ve already asked around, Miss Qi is incredibly choosy. Do you know who she divorced from?”
Shen Ziao looked disdainful.
“Who cares who it was? What does that have to do with Miss Qi being choosy?”
Shen Zifang snorted, “Of course, since Miss Qi looked down upon such a man, let alone big brother you.”
“How can you say that, youngest brother? In Dongjiang, who could possibly be better than us brothers?” Shen Ziao still didn’t seem too concerned.
Shen Wanzhen, however, became interested.
“I did hear about Miss Qi’s divorce, but who was that man?”
“Zhao Xiyan, the Young Marquis.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ziao’s expression soured slightly, while Shen Wanzhen shivered.
“The genius War God who once shocked four countries?”
“Exactly him.” Shen Zifang glanced at Shen Ziao leisurely. “So, Second Brother, Miss Qi Yue is not someone to be trifled with!”
After a brief moment of astonishment, Shen Ziao also lifted his proud head.
“Who cares whether he’s a marquis or not? We’re already separated; what does he have to do with it?”
Seeing Shen Ziao set on his unilateral course and eager to do something, Shen Zifang just smiled and didn’t make another sound.
Meanwhile, the Ma Family had approached Qi Yue once again.
This time, it was Ma Renfeng himself who came.
He had reserved a private room at Linjiang Pavilion and sent an invitation card. Qi Yue went there with Qu Wei.
Ma Renfeng was dressed in black and was a thin old man with a small upturned mustache.
Qi Yue almost mistook him for their steward, Ma Qun.
At first, Ma Renfeng was tiresomely indirect and avoided the main topic, instead bringing up the Shen Family’s affairs. Qi Yue grew impatient and sent Qu Wei a look, who quickly steered the conversation back on track.
“Mr. Ma, my sister is very busy. Let’s get straight to the point.”
Ma Renfeng hesitated slightly as if he was unprepared.
The expression on his face clearly indicated he was relaying someone else’s words.
“Miss Qi Yue, as long as you abandon the Shen Family and cooperate with our Ma Family, we can split the profits fifty-fifty!”
Qi Yue’s lips twitched slightly.
Split them fifty-fifty? They would need to obtain the profits first.
Shen Zikuang hadn’t started making money yet, but Ma Renfeng and the person behind him were already so eager to make a move.
She wondered if, had Shen Zikuang not seen some positive results, these people would still have come to discuss cooperation with her?
Chances are, they would directly use the readily available prescriptions, and with such an ugly display of greed, would they really share half the profits with her?
Moreover, why should she settle for half when she could aim to take it all?
Once she reclaimed the pharmaceutical factory, she could simply give Shen Zikuang a ten or twenty percent share of the profits to keep him working diligently.
Such a simple matter!
Thinking this, she remained silent, simply sipping her tea quietly.
Qu Wei, however, snorted coldly.
“Half of the profits? That’s a bold claim. Mr. Ma, it’s not that my sister looks down on the Ma Family, but even the eldest son of the Shen Family with all his abilities met his downfall, causing my sister to make a futile long trip. Can the Ma Family really manage it?”
Upon hearing this, a strange smile crossed Ma Renfeng’s wrinkled face.
“Not to conceal from Miss Qi Yue, I actually believe that in the field of finished medicines, nobody can surpass our Ma Family. That young Shen might have some skills, but all he can do is buy medicinal materials.”
“Miss Qi Yue, even though I’ve been suppressed by that young Shen in recent years, I haven’t been idle and have been developing highly effective finished medicines.”
Qi Yue’s pupils constricted.
The Ma Family was developing finished medicines? This old man truly had some vision!
While speaking, Ma Renfeng had already taken a small box out from his sleeve and opened it in front of Qi Yue.
Inside the box was a pill wrapped in oil paper, which by the scent, was likely for treating bruises and injuries.
Upon just a quick smell, Qi Yue grew suspicious.
How could this be so similar to her prescription?
And was wrapping pills in oil paper before placing them in wooden boxes not her original invention?
She examined the pill and the box for a while longer and noticed that the oil paper was indeed different.
Besides, the pill, originally for bruises and injuries, had its licorice—which benefited the Qi and enhanced the drug’s efficiency—replaced, and other herbs needlessly added in.
What a clumsy trick!
She had thought that Dongjiang had produced another talent similar to herself!
