Jiang Chengxu was terrified, while Manman’s eyes lit up. She knew the prominence of the Jiang Family in Yan City, but she didn’t expect this person to disregard even the Jiang Family, indicating his family background.
The current issue is how to find an opportunity.
Her gaze inevitably fell on Xu Qinghuan. Xu Qinghuan actually knew such people, and it was likely thanks to the Lu Family that Xu Qinghuan received face from him. Indeed, having a mother who remarried into a prestigious family had its benefits.
Lu Nianying hurriedly rushed over, and upon seeing Huo Chi, her eyes nearly popped out, "H-Huo Chi, why are you here?"
Huo Chi glanced sidelong at Lu Nianying, not knowing her and not interested in engaging.
"Huo"?
Jiang Chengxu’s legs went weak, nearly sitting on the ground. How did Xu Qinghuan know soone from the Huo Family?
Since she was so familiar with Huo Chi, why was she engaged to Jiang Xingye?
To marry into the Huo Family would be like reaching the pinnacle of success.
If he hadn’t broken off the engagent with Xu Qinghuan, just with her connection to Huo Chi, what difficulties would they face in returning to the city?
"Comrade Xu, it’s up to you now!" Shao Lizhong said, wanting to personally witness Xu Qinghuan’s skills.
"I’ll try!" Xu Qinghuan modestly replied, but she was quite assertive in her actions. She was about to strip ng Yibing’s clothes when Jiang Xingye stopped her, "Let do it!"
Xu Qinghuan didn’t like undressing others, unless it was Jiang Xingye. She stepped aside, sterilizing the silver needles, and then proceeded to perform acupuncture on ng Yibing.
Her hands moved like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, graceful and fluid, pleasing to watch. Each acupuncture point was precise, a skill that Shao Lizhong thought couldn’t be achieved without twenty or thirty years of dedicated practice.
It’s only fair to say that so people have extraordinary talent, blessed by the heavens.
Truly enviable!
Huo Chi, having watched Xu Qinghuan’s performance and then seeing Shao Lizhong’s expression, had a clear understanding in his heart.
After performing acupuncture, Xu Qinghuan wrote a prescription. As she was about to fetch the dicine, Shao Lizhong reached out to take it, reading it thoroughly and was completely convinced.
"Comrade Xu, were you learning dicine while still in your mother’s womb?" Shao Lizhong asked jealously, impressed by the exquisite balance of the prescription components.
Xu Qinghuan laughed at the jest, "Is it... difficult?"
Shao Lizhong was so angry he nearly jumped, difficult?
Who doesn’t know that studying dicine is difficult, especially traditional Chinese dicine, which sees the human body as a microcosm where the five elents interact with each other, embodying the mysteries of heaven and earth. Without a very strong knowledge base and profound comprehension, one can’t even step through the door.
And studying dicine isn’t like other fields; lacking skills ans not curing and saving people but harming them instead.
So this young lady is truly exasperating.
Xu Qinghuan went next door to get the dicine, and Shao Lizhong didn’t follow. When it was ti to decoct the dicine, Jiang Xingye took over the task.
As ng Yibing was about to awaken, Jiang Chengxu was seized by a sense of fear and found a way to escape.
Xu Qinghuan noticed at a glance, "Jiang Zhiqing, where are you going?"
Previously, Jiang Baohua had detained all the onlookers, assigning soone to watch them. Later, when the police arrived, he couldn’t intervene, and since it was ti to go to work in the morning, he didn’t arrange anyone to supervise them.
But the other educated youths were at ease, happy to stay behind, avoiding work and having a show to watch.
When Jiang Chengxu tried to leave, Xu Hongtu was anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Knowing he had stumbled, he also planned to sneak away.
At Xu Qinghuan’s words, two policen who had co along apprehended the two of them, "Behave yourselves, you’ll be allowed to leave when the ti cos."
The two wore expressions of hopelessness, as if their souls had left their bodies.
After taking a bowl of dicine, a while later, the deathly aura on ng Yibing’s face completely dissipated. Although still very pale, he at least ca back to life.
For an ordinary patient, Xu Qinghuan would naturally wait for him to awaken slowly, but with soone like ng Yibing, who had malicious intents, she disregarded such considerations, jabbing him awake with a needle.
This was actually detrintal to the patient’s recovery, harming vitality.
ng Yibing opened his eyes to see two people in military uniforms and imdiately rolled his eyes, failing to faint again.
"It wasn’t ; soone else sent . I was wrong. I only ca because I was persuaded to destroy Xu Zhiqing’s reputation. Please forgive , I won’t dare again!"
To think ng Yibing confessed so readily!
At this mont, Jiang Chengxu appeared utterly foolish, his face ashen, cold sweating profusely, as if his soul had been extracted.
"We are the police. Tell us everything you know. Confession brings leniency, resistance brings severity!" Peng Yutao stated.
ng Yibing trembled with fear, "I confess, I confess! I fell in love with Xu Zhiqing at first sight. I heard she was engaged, so I thought, thought, if I was with her like that, and cooked rice into sothing more, she would have no choice but to break off the engagent and be with !"
Jiang Xingye, knowing it was indeed this, still couldn’t help but rush forward. Xu Qinghuan held him back, "Aye, he’s dreaming!"
Jiang Xingye’s eyes were bloodshot, gripping Xu Qinghuan’s shoulders tightly, "Huanhuan, you can’t... even if... you can’t break off the engagent with !"
"I know, I know, alright, don’t be angry, it won’t happen, I promise!" Xu Qinghuan gently patted his back, and Jiang Xingye finally relaxed slowly, pushing back his emotions.
ng Yibing, not knowing what had happened, only said, "It was Jiang Chengxu who told , yes, he encouraged . He said Jiang Xingye wasn’t worthy of Xu Zhiqing, and as long as I did this and that, Xu Zhiqing would definitely be with ."
Now, ng Yibing only wanted to reduce his own cri, pulling in whoever he could.
Jiang Chengxu was enraged, "You’re lying, these were all your words!"
ng Yibing hastily replied, "Clearly, it was you who encouraged , and you told Xu Zhiqing was often alone at the clinic, where there’s a bed."
Jiang Chengxu pretended to be friendly with ng Yibing. From ng Yibing’s perspective, he thought he’d received advice after expressing interest in Xu Qinghuan, but from Xu Qinghuan’s perspective, ng Yibing fell into Jiang Chengxu’s trap.
All this was likely Jiang Chengxu’s sche; he was deeply manipulative, unscrupulous, and plotting, like a snake lurking in the shadows, nearly impossible to guard against.
How Jiang Chengxu knew ng Yibing should have a heart attack remains unknown and irrelevant since, after ng Yibing drank the drug-laced dicinal wine, if Jiang Xingye acted, even if ng Yibing didn’t die, he would be severely injured, and Jiang Xingye would still bear legal responsibility.
Peng Yutao asked, "Who did you drink with yesterday?"
ng Yibing thought for a mont, "Yesterday, I drank with no one, just had so to build courage by myself."
Yesterday, a woman in their production team experienced difficult labor, and the midwife didn’t dare take action. The family intended to invite a doctor from the health clinic, but ng Yibing suggested that the Shangjiang Team’s doctor, who had co from the county hospital, was excellent, prompting the family to quickly go fetch Xu Qinghuan.
Originally, he planned to act midway, but thinking of Xu Qinghuan’s tender skin, afraid of hurting her in the maize, and because it would be their first ti, he didn’t want Xu Qinghuan to suffer.
Most importantly, he recalled Jiang Chengxu saying that the clinic was usually deserted, and if he wanted to find Xu Qinghuan, it was best to wait at the clinic.
Sure enough, he nervously followed all the way, and upon seeing Xu Qinghuan alone at the clinic, he could no longer restrain himself.
At that mont, his heartbeat was rapid, like a drum, nearly bursting out of his chest, while visions appeared before his eyes, and his mind beca unclear.
