Grew up in an orphanage, with average looks, and worked tirelessly for 30 years, accumulating six million in savings. Just as she finally achieved financial freedom without spending a dime, Su Yan ...
The air fell silent instantly after Su Yan spoke.
To be precise, it was cold, as cold as an icebox.
While everyone was shocked by her sharp words, they were also observing the expression on the face of the top leader.
As expected.
The leader's face was extremely gloomy. He glared at Su Yan, his sharp and authoritative eyes filled with anger that seemed ready to burst forth at any moment.
Su Yan, however, showed no fear, her eyes defiantly meeting his scrutiny and anger.
She wasn't really an eighteen-year-old girl. In her past life, she had a higher position and saw a lot of dirty things. Every workplace has its dark corners.
Su Yu had gotten into trouble again and again. She could tolerate not seeing anyone, but when she saw her own brother in such a sickly state, how could she bear it?
Under the combined influence of the original owner's emotions and her own, her inner dissatisfaction finally erupted.
As a family member, she felt she had done nothing wrong!
"My brother disappeared for five years while carrying out a mission. Everyone said he was dead. My mother said she wanted to see him alive or dead. For the past five years, she pretended to be strong on the surface, but she shed tears silently at night."
However, now that he has returned safely after completing his mission, he is suffering malicious harm and treatment from all sides. I want to ask you, is there any fairness left? Is the fairness on the surface truly fairness? It's understandable that I'm angry, but you have no right to be angry because of my words. Why are you angry? Are you feeling guilty, or ashamed that I've exposed your deepest secrets?
She was very assertive in front of her superiors and showed no fear whatsoever.
Upon hearing her question, the emotions of those present shifted from shock to complexity.
It seems... she wasn't wrong either.
Jiang Jingxing put his arm around her shoulder with a pained expression and said to his superior, "She's in a bad mood, I hope you won't take it to heart."
He spoke casually, seemingly unafraid of being blamed by his superiors for Su Yan's behavior.
really.
The leader remained silent for a long time, looking at Su Yan's tearful and angry face, and finally let out a sigh.
He said, "I understand how you feel, and I will continue to investigate. Su Yu is a soldier I trained myself. I value him highly and don't want anything to happen to him. I hope you can trust us."
Su Yan took a deep breath, turned her face away to wipe away her tears, and said with pursed lips, "I'm sorry, I acted impulsively just now."
She knew when to quit while she was ahead.
They had already given her plenty of face, and she had vented her dissatisfaction. She didn't want to make things too ugly or cause trouble for her brother.
lead:"……"
He glared at Jiang Jingxing, as if to say, "Where did you find this monster?" His expression changed in an instant!
Jiang Jingxing ignored his leader's anger, his eyes filled with pity for the girl.
If she had really gone too far, the leader wouldn't have reacted this way.
"Would you like to take a break?" he asked.
Her voice was endlessly gentle, so tender it made everyone's cheeks ache.
Su Yan shook her head, turned to look at Su Yu, and said, "I want to participate in my brother's treatment."
Before Jiang Jingxing could speak, the leader asked, "Do you know anything about medicine?"
"Traditional Chinese medicine," she answered honestly. "I brought a lot of herbs with me this time, all of which I picked myself in the mountains."
Upon hearing this, the first to be unable to contain himself was Mr. Jue. He excitedly stepped forward and said, "You said you brought a lot of herbs with you. Can I take a look?"
Without hesitation, Su Yan handed over the package on her shoulder, saying, "It's all in here."
Jiang Jingxing then explained, "The medicinal herbs I brought back were found by Ayan when she took me to the mountain. She is an expert in Chinese medicinal herbs and has a thorough understanding of Chinese medicinal cuisine."
Mr. Jue was listening intently, while his hands had already opened the package. The different medicinal herbs inside were all packed separately in red plastic bags.
His eyes lit up after reading it, and he looked up at Su Yan as if she were a national treasure. He couldn't help but praise her, "You're amazing! All the medicinal herbs here are needed to develop the antidote. Boss, I approve of Su Yan joining us."
Since Mr. Jue had said so, the leader had no reason to refuse. He nodded and said, "Alright, get rid of the poison in Su Yu's body as soon as possible. I'll be waiting for your good news."
Su Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
For the next two days, she devoted herself to developing the antidote, even mixing medicine and working in the pharmacy during meals, and postponed the Tao family's family reunion banquet.
She didn't trust anyone but herself. She wouldn't be at ease until the antidote was developed. Fortunately, the Tao family understood her reason for the delay and told her it was okay, she could go over after she finished her work, and to contact them if needed.
On her third night in the basement, the final modified formula by Mr. Jue finally dispelled the toxins in Su Yu's body.
After drinking a bowl of antidote in three portions, Su Yu began to vomit incessantly. The vomit was black, and his sweat soaked the sheets. He didn't stop vomiting until 5 a.m., when it was just getting light. His lips, which had turned purple, had returned to normal, though they were still a little pale.
Su Yan finally felt relieved. She took Su Yu's pulse and then began to prepare a medicinal diet for him.
Old Master Jue came closer and was astonished. He quickly asked, "This is a medicinal diet to replenish blood and qi, but you replaced two of the ingredients. Does this change add a detoxifying effect?"
"Yes, these two detoxifying herbs don't clash with other herbs, nor are they overpowering. My brother's body can handle them."
After Su Yan finished speaking, she handed the medicinal diet to the person in charge of dispensing medicine and asked him to bring back three doses first.
The old man looked at Su Yan with even more affection and said kindly, "Young lady, would you be interested in becoming my last disciple? I will teach you all the wisdom I have accumulated in my life."
After observing her for several days, he discovered that Su Yan possessed an exceptional talent for traditional Chinese medicine, and he really didn't want to miss out on such a talent.
Su Yan was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
The other young doctors looked shocked and envious upon hearing this.
Who is Master Jue? He is a leading figure in the field of traditional Chinese medicine!
He only had three disciples in his lifetime, and these three disciples were second only to him in skill.
When he was fifty-five, he announced that he would no longer take on apprentices, but unexpectedly he made an exception for Su Yan today!
Seeing Su Yan's stunned expression, Mr. Jue patiently spoke again: "It's okay if you haven't thought it through yet. My promise is valid. You can contact me anytime you want. Moreover, I heard from Jing Xing that you were admitted to the Clinical Medicine program at Southern Medical University. If you become my disciple and want to change your major, I can also find a way to help you change it."
Upon hearing this, Su Yan's pupils suddenly contracted.
How could Mr. Jue change a major that had already been decided?
The clinical hospital was the one the original owner chose before she transmigrated. She didn't really like it, but there was nothing she could do. Then, Mr. Jue pulled this stunt... well, she admits she was tempted.
