Capítulo 1713: Chapter 1914: You’re Lying!!!
However, his focus is on the matter, not the people. This ti, he ca here for Director Wang, to examine what illness Boss Zhu has and treat it, and nothing beyond that is within his consideration. Given his character, he wouldn’t ddle in other affairs.
Therefore, he ignored Boss Zhu’s dominant daughter with broad shoulders and strong thighs and concentrated on Boss Zhu himself. With a quick glance, he could see so clues. He had notably examined Boss Zhu’s internal condition that night, and there was no major illness. Even minor issues could be cured with the dicine he prescribed. Now, this situation arises.
Evidently, this illness is not accumulated over the years. Otherwise, he would have noticed it then. Therefore, this illness causing Boss Zhu’s current state must have erged these past few days, not a long-standing ailnt.
Yet, a healthy person suddenly struck with such a serious illness, inevitably arouses suspicion. It seems this situation is not as simple as it appears.
While observing Boss Zhu, readying to check his pulse, Boss Zhu’s daughter suddenly charged over, attempting to shove Hao Jian away.
Angrily, she said, “Who are you? You can’t touch my father. What if sothing happens? Will you take responsibility?”
Hao Jian laughed, finding her words amusing. What does it an by taking responsibility if sothing happens? Should Boss Zhu just lie there, without hospitalizing or treating?
Considering Boss Zhu’s condition, if not treated promptly, even the greatest dical skills might be powerless.
Before Hao Jian could respond, Mrs. Zhu rushed over and pointed at Hao Jian, saying, “It’s you. Old Zhu was perfectly fine, and hospital tests were normal. But after taking your dicine that night, he felt unwell, leading to this situation today!”
As Mrs. Zhu spoke, she burst into tears and snot, pointing at Hao Jian with indignation.
Boss Zhu’s daughter concentrated her gaze on Hao Jian, her face full of rage, pointing at him: “What dicine did you prescribe my father, causing this? If anything happens to him, you won’t escape responsibility.”
Hao Jian said nothing, maintaining a calm expression.
Director Wang, who had listened quietly, could not bear it anymore. Although it was conscious Boss Zhu who requested Hao Jian’s consultation, it was he who called Hao Jian over. Allowing Hao Jian to be publicly accused implies his failure.
He considered his relationship with Hao Jian decent; otherwise, Hao Jian wouldn’t have co over so early because of his call. But if Hao Jian takes blad without defense, their relationship could exhaust instantly.
Having witnessed Hao Jian’s potential and skills, he certainly wouldn’t let this relationship perish.
Thus, he stepped forward, saying, “Please, let’s stay calm. The primary concern is to heal Old Zhu rather than debating these issues; otherwise, missing the optimal treatnt window would be unfortunate.”
Director Wang spoke, sighing slightly, believing his status and authority could grant him so face from the crowd.
However, before finishing, Mrs. Zhu stood up, disregarding Director Wang’s plea: “Hmph! Treatnt? He’s causing harm, letting him treat Old Zhu again is sending him to death.”
Director Wang’s expression turned sour upon hearing this, surprised by Mrs. Zhu’s words, denying him face. Yet understanding Boss Zhu’s critical condition, he acknowledged the family’s emotional response.
So, with a gentle tone, he said, “This matter isn’t concluded; how can you claim Old Zhu’s illness is Hao Jian’s doing? This is scaremongering, unjustly assigning bla!”
Boss Zhu’s daughter looked grim, turning to Director Wang: “Then, Uncle Wang, what proof do you have claiming my dad’s illness wasn’t caused by him? Would my dad be like this otherwise? It’s because he trusted him, took his dicine, leading to this, and you say it’s unrelated!? My dad treated you as a friend, yet facing his illness, this is your attitude. Apparently, my dad befriended the wrong person!”
Director Wang’s face beca markedly unpleasant; all argunt seed directed at him, implying he was entirely responsible.
He wanted to speak but was at a loss for words. Pausing montarily, he said, “Young lady, your words lack discretion, verging on overstepping!”
Despite Director Wang’s stance, Boss Zhu’s daughter remained assertive, showing no courtesy.
She retorted, “There’s no overstepping, I handle matters based on facts. Only today, my respect for Uncle Wang faded due to his attitude, naturally adjusting mine accordingly.”
She made it clear, should Director Wang defend Hao Jian further, her attitude would worsen; it presently was relatively better.
Initially wanting to speak, Director Wang refrained after witnessing her deanor, relinquishing verbally with a sigh.
At this mont, Hao Jian glanced at her, amused that soone could be so assertive and unkind, without respecting elders — a surprise indeed.
Initially, he rely intended to appease Director Wang, handle trivialities, and treat Boss Zhu. Yet, her words proved unexpectedly hostile, rendering Director Wang speechless when defending him.
Hao Jian shifted focus to Mrs. Zhu, noticing her revealing an expression, and silently recorded these observations without voicing them.
He then approached Director Wang’s back, standing in front and locking eyes with Boss Zhu’s daughter.
With a confident smile, he said, “Since you claim your dad’s illness stems from my dicine, have you considered if anyone else besides your dad consud it?”
Boss Zhu’s daughter appeared puzzled, initially avoiding dialogue with Hao Jian, realizing sothing upon hearing this, and looked toward her mother.
Mrs. Zhu, seeing everyone’s attention on her, grasped Hao Jian’s suggestion — implying she and Boss Zhu took Hao Jian’s dicine. Yet Boss Zhu suffered, while she remained unaffected.
She seed aware of this issue earlier and retorted, “You an the issue isn’t with your dicine? Hmph, don’t think you can easily escape this. Old Zhu’s condition is undoubtedly linked to your dicine. He was fine days ago, but since consuming your dicine, he deteriorated. As for , I didn’t take your dicine — Old Zhu trusted you, hence his situation.”
Hao Jian chuckled at Mrs. Zhu’s pompous excuse, then mockingly laughed, saying: “If Mrs. Zhu hadn’t taken my dicine, how could she speak energetically now? From my understanding, Mrs. Zhu suffers chronic stomach issues with a pale tongue. If she didn’t consu my dicine, wouldn’t her tongue still show paleness? Could Mrs. Zhu show us?”
Boss Zhu’s daughter attempted to argue but hesitated upon hearing Hao Jian’s professional words, recalling her mother’s chronic stomach problems and pale tongue, showing curiosity and looking at Mrs. Zhu.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhu realized refusing would be exposing. Thus, she complied, slightly opening her mouth and sticking out her tongue.
The crowd leaned closer, noticing the tongue lacked the paleness Hao Jian described, implying Mrs. Zhu’s chronic stomach issue was healed.
Boss Zhu’s daughter seed most astonished, knowing her mother’s persistent illness, treated by many Traditional Chinese dicine practitioners with little effect. She was acutely aware of her mother’s condition.
Watching now, seeing her mother’s tongue cleared, old ailnts don’t disappear unnaturally, leading to her mother’s deception — she took Hao Jian’s dicine, curing the issue.
Thinking about this, she showed confusion — why would her mother lie about this?
While she pondered, everyone sowhat knew the answer.
Hao Jian slightly smiled at this point, noting Mrs. Zhu’s angry expression, considering how to handle troubleso Hao Jian.
Yet as she contemplated, Hao Jian widened eyes staring at her.
“You’re lying!” Hao Jian proclaid loudly.
She imdiately responded, “No, the old ailnt healed naturally, unrelated to your dicine. I didn’t consu it!”
