If You Have a Male Confidant, Don't Pester Me Anymore

On the eve of their wedding, his girlfriend scoffed, "Look at how high-end my best friend's wedding hotel was, how expensive her banquet was. Then look at you, haggling over seventy or eigh...

Inside the ward.

Silence reigned.

Zhuang Wen stood in front of the hospital bed, arms crossed, staring at the patient with a half-smile.

Under Zhuang Wen's instructions, several cameras were pointed at the patient, and several microphones were also placed next to the patient's mouth.

Everyone stared in disbelief.

Meanwhile, Lin Ni, Liu Miaoqing, Lin Shu, and the other women watched Zhuang Wen's antics with their beautiful eyes sparkling and their lips curving upwards in an uncontrollable smile.

Even Lu Ruxue, with her exquisitely beautiful eyes and brows, had a faint smile playing on her lips.

"What...what are you trying to do?!"

"Stop defiling my uncle! He can't take your poisoning anymore, please spare us!"

"We dare not oppose you anymore, please let us go. We will tell the media that my uncle's condition has worsened and has nothing to do with the Chinese medicine pills produced by your company!"

The patient's family knew that if they didn't stop Zhuang Wen's strange behavior, the patient would be exposed!

So they cried and shouted, making a huge fuss, all to stop Zhuang Wen.

"If you don't leave, don't blame us!"

Two young men even exchanged a glance, clenched their fists, and walked menacingly toward Zhuang Wen and the photographers.

The reporters were somewhat frightened.

But Zhuang Wen simply patted them on the shoulder and said, "You guys continue, I'll take care of these two!"

As he spoke, he walked over.

"You bastard!"

One of the youths roared and punched Zhuang Wen in the face.

Zhuang Wen remained motionless, as if letting his fists come at him.

"Ah, no!"

Lu Ruxue, Lin Ni, and the other women's expressions changed. Why didn't he dodge? Why did he go out and get beaten? What was he trying to prove?

But the next moment, they froze in place.

Then, a relieved smile appeared on their fair and beautiful faces.

Even Lu Ruxue breathed a barely perceptible sigh of relief.

Zhuang Wen reached out and grabbed the young man's fist. With a little force, the young man let out a scream and then tried to kneel down and beg for mercy.

And another fist has already arrived.

Zhuang Wen simply flung the young man's body in another direction.

"ah!"

"ah!"

Two screams rang out.

The two young men collided and fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

"Someone's been assaulted! People from Yuzhu Pharmaceuticals are assaulting someone!"

"Isn't anyone going to do something about this? He's going to beat us to death!"

At this point, several of the older family members began to wail in pain.

The piercing screams were as if someone really had a knife to their necks.

The cameras have already turned this way.

"Did you all see that? I didn't touch them at all, and they just started howling on their own. It has nothing to do with me. You all have to be my witnesses!"

Zhuang Wen said helplessly to the camera, raising his hands to indicate that he hadn't touched them.

The others present couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

Even Lin Ke, a reckless and easily angered person, couldn't help but smile upon seeing this, and then gave Zhuang Wen a thumbs up!

At that moment, Zhuang Wen saw comments floating by on a live streaming device.

"Are the people at Yuzhu Pharmaceuticals crazy? They went to intimidate a patient right after they left the emergency room. It's outrageous! Is no one going to do anything about them?"

"Didn't the doctor say that the patient is recovering well, as long as we don't agitate him?"

"Bringing a group of people to a hospital ward, you call that not exciting?"

"..."

This comment was made 10 minutes ago.

"This patient seems to be recovering quite well. He has a rosy complexion and looks very healthy. If you were to tell me he just came out of the emergency room, I would never believe it!"

"Look at the faces of that family, they don't seem like good people to me."

"Don't judge a book by its cover! Although I also feel there's something fishy about this, let's wait and see!"

"..."

This comment was posted 5 minutes ago.

"The way you're acting so unreasonable, it seems you're completely irrational! They weren't even touched, so what are you wailing about? Are you slaughtering pigs?!"

"Those two young men deserved it! If they hadn't attacked them first, would they have been able to subdue them? They deserved it!"

"I'm sorry, I apologize for my rashness just now. I shouldn't have said something so brainless as to say that the people at Yuzhu Pharmaceuticals are sick without understanding the facts. I apologize! I'm sorry!"

"I'm starting to feel like the Yuzhu Pharmaceutical's traditional Chinese medicine pill incident isn't quite what's being said online. Is there some other hidden story? This needs to be investigated by reporters!"

"Please turn the camera around, we need to see the patient!"

"Yes, we need to see if he's faking being asleep!"

"..."

This is a comment that just popped up.

There are quite a few reasonable people online.

Zhuang Wen couldn't help but sigh.

Then, he glanced at the comments on the screen, and one sentence caught his attention.

"Give the photographer a bonus!"

He raised an eyebrow and looked up, only to see the comment from the previous post:

"The patient has moved!"

His smile grew even brighter.

"Cough cough!"

Just then, the middle-aged man on the hospital bed coughed lightly twice, and his eyes, which were flushed red from holding his breath, opened with feigned confusion.

"What's going on? These people..."

He looked around and saw not only strange-looking faces, but also numerous cameras and microphones scattered around him.

"Uncle, you're awake!"

"That's great! Uncle, how are you feeling? Does it still hurt?"

“These people are from Yuzhu Pharmaceutical, and these reporters are people we brought in to seek justice for you. You can tell them whatever grievances you have…”

His family members also chimed in, pretending that he had just woken up, and they were all incredibly excited. Some of them were even on the verge of tears, with snot and tears streaming down their faces.

"hehe……"

Zhuang Wen and the others watched coldly.

These people's acting skills are terrible.

He's not even as good as Boss Lu.

Zhuang Wen muttered to himself, then glanced at Lu Ruxue, making the woman, who had been silently watching him, look a little strange.

What does that look in his eyes mean?

It seems like...disdain?

Hmph, looks like they've forgotten all about it now that there's someone new...

Her clear eyes turned slightly cold.

The ward was noisy for a while, then quieted down again.

All eyes turned to Zhuang Wen, eager to see what his next move would be.

Lin Ni's eyes dimmed slightly. She had been amused by Zhuang Wen's antics, but she still didn't have much hope that Zhuang Wen would make any progress today.

"It's likely to be the same as before; he did his best."

She sighed inwardly, gazing at Zhuang Wen's profile with a dreamy look in her eyes.

Lu Ruxue remained expressionless, her clear eyes fixed on Zhuang Wen's face, unblinking.

Lin Shu's eyes were filled with anticipation. She believed that Zhuang Wen could definitely resolve this matter and do what her sister couldn't, pulling Yuzhu Pharmaceuticals out of the abyss.

Liu Miaoqing, with a slight upturn of her lips, watched Zhuang Wen's performance with great interest.
