Chapter 189


    Gwen guessed that Annalise might ask her to remove her makeup, but she would not do as Annalise


    wanted. If Annalise wanted Gwen to remove her makeup, she would have to raise the stakes and bet


    on the entire future of traditional medicine. Annalise would not have such courage.

    Even if Annalise did, would the other traditional medicine practitioners on her team allow her to mess


    around? With this thought in mind, Gwen calmed down even more. “Good morning, Ms. Raven. You


    look quite energetic today,” Annalise said with a smile. Annalise noticed her heavy makeup. She did not


    doubt that Gwen’s face had a breakout. Gwen and Annalise were talking face to face. Many people’s


    eyes were twinkling, gossiping among themselves. It was time to sit back and watch the show.


    “Yeah, I’m in good spirits because I’m happy. Ms. Barton, you know why I’m so happy, don’t you?”


    Gwen smiled confidently. She wanted to use her words to tell everyone that she did not have e. The


    modern medicine team had Won.


    “Ms. Raven, your makeup is so thick. Is it because your under-eye circles were too dark? Did you not


    sleep wellst night?” Annalise asked curiously. She said nothing about e. She knew that someone


    would mention itter. Yesterday, Annalise could already tell that Gwen was going to get pimples.


    Typically, e would not happen overnight just because one was frustrated. It would happen after one


    bottled up their emotions for a few days. Also, endocrine imbnces would cause one to be prone to


    e. Yesterday, when Annalise saw Gwen’s dark circles, bloodshot eyes, and fatigued expression,


    she knew that Gwen had been suffering from insomnia and was about to develop e. To make


    Gwen’s face break out, Annalise deliberately said those words to deceive Gwen so that she could not


    sleep. “No, I slept very wellst night. I even had sweet dreams,” Gwen said with a smile. Let’s sit down


    and talk,” Annalise said.


    “Ms. Barton, are you trying to stall for time? Why don’t you propose a time to end the bet? Because we


    had not agreed on the time yesterday, I thought that the time we met in the morning was when the bet


    would end,” Gwen spoke demurely. “e doesn’t happen in ten minutes or even half an hour. Let’s


    finish at eleven o’clock. It would be just in time for lunch,” Annalise said. “Sure.” Gwen readily agreed.


    She knew that Annalise suspected she had e. Annalise had been testing her. Therefore, she could


    not give herself away. Her makeup was picture-perfect, and it would not run until the afternoon. Julian


    personally went to get some food. Annalise had quietly asked him to get it just now. They were all


    tropical fruits, including mangoes, durians, and others.


    Gwen knew about traditional medicine. She knew that these fruits were considered foods that might


    trigger a breakout. Typically, she liked to eat durians the most. But at that moment, she pinched her


    nose and said to Annalise, “I’m sorry, Ms. Barton. I can’t stand its smell. I won’t eat it.”


    “It’s okay. I’ll eat it. What would you like to eat?” Annalise did not intend to give it to Gwen. She just


    wanted to see her reaction. ‘No need. I’m not eating,” Gwen said. Not far away, many people were


    watching them anxiously. “When will it end?” “That’s right. Why are they still chatting?”


    “Don’t tell me they’ll be friends and say that modern and traditional medicine are both great. What if


    they settle on a draw? Won’t that be the same as pulling our legs? I’ve already paid the deposit for my


    new car.” “How is that possible? Annalise and Gwen aren’t qualified to decide the oue of the bet.”


    “True. Let’s hope they get it over with soon. Women are so troublesome.”


    There were a few moments of silence. Annalise ate the fruit and pushed a te of mango in front of


    Gwen. “Ms. Raven, are you sure you won’t eat some?” “No, I don’t eat fruits that are yellow in color,”


    Gwen said. or not?”


    Someone in the crowd could not help but ask loudly, “Hey, Gwen. Do you have pimples Hearing this


    question, Annalise looked up at Gwen. “Oh, right. Ms. Raven, did you get any pimples?” “Of course


    not,” Gwen said with a confident smile. “Then, why did you put on so much makeup?” Gwen smiled and


    raised her eyebrows. “Why? Is it against the rules?”


    “Of course not. Ms. Raven, please wait for me. I need to go to the washroom. I’ll be right back.”


    Annalise suddenly stood up. “Alright… Uh, what are you doing?” Gwen suddenly felt something on her


    face. It was like a mist, making her unable to open her eyes. Then, she caught the whiff of a makeup


    remover.


    “Oh, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Ms. Raven. I was too careless. Let me help you wipe it off. I’m sorry.” Annalise


    had poured a ss of makeup remover on Gwen’s face. At that moment, she took a tissue paper and


    rubbed it under Gwen’s nose. “Oh, let go! Let go of me. Take your hands away.” Gwen was so angry.


    She wanted to cover her face. How could Annalise possibly listen to her? Annalise pushed Gwen’s


    hand away.


    Who did Gwen think she was? Annalise was a personal disciple of Dariel Randall. She was already


    more powerful than most men, let alone a weak woman like Gwen. Gwen wanted to cover her face and


    run away, but it was impossible. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling.


    Annalise was such an unreasonable woman. She was so unpredictable, and she had thrown Gwen a


    curveball. A normal person would not do such a thing. She had poured makeup remover on Gwen’s


    face without her permission. She was so arrogant that shepletely disobeyed rules and etiquette.


    However, Annalise had made the right bet. What should Gwen do now? Mina heard themotion and


    rushed over. First and foremost, she came over to look at Gwen’s face. In the morning, she saw that


    Gwen had no e.


    When Gwen saw Mina, she shouted, “Mina, pull this lunatic away from me. She’s too much of a bully.


    What are you guys waiting for? Is no one in the modern medicine team willing to stand up to her? Are


    we going to let her team bully us?”


    When Mina heard this, she immediately pulled Gwen over. When Gwen saw Minaing over to help,


    she immediately got up and hid her face behind Mina. But afterward, Mina burst with excitement and


    said, “Gwen, you have two pimples! Traditional medicine is so amazing.”


    Gwen was speechless. She thought, “Mina, you stupid thing. Are we even on the same team?” Mina’s


    words were like a bomb. It made everyone in the hall explode with nervous excitement. Many people


    cursed. “Fuck. Is this for real? She has e?” “That’s impossible Her face is so smooth.”


    “Sigh. Makeup techniques nowadays are so scary. Even fifty year old women can turn into eighteen-


    year-old girls. I heard some of those women even dated young hunks for a year or two No one was the


    wiser.”


    “I don’t care about that. What I care about is my money I fucking bet 15 million dors on Gwen. Once


    she has a pimple, my money will go down the drain!” “I bet 15 million on her. Oh, my god. Let me die!”


    Everyone was speechless,


    “Ms. Raven, you have e. Our traditional medicine team won!” Annalise looked at Gwen and said.


    “Do you think it’s appropriate for you to use such despicable methods? Huh?” At that moment, Gwen


    was in a sorry state


    “I’m sorry about the makeup remover. However, this is the simplest, most direct, and most effective


    way. You’re the one who used makeup to cover it up first. Even if I ask you to remove your makeup in


    public, I believe you won’t agree. I’m sure you will find a reason to refuse. In that case, since you can


    use your method, I can use mine,” Annalise said.
