Chapter 271 Her Handwriting

Zhu Jiabao said to Xu Jingqian, "Don't listen to Fanfan, prescribe the medicine, and I'll watch her drink it."

Then he said to Zhu Fanfan, "You're also a medical student. You have a whole set of advice for persuading others to take medicine, but when you take medicine yourself, you frown as if you're drinking poison, and you say it's too bitter to drink. I don't usually see you liking sweets, so why can't you eat bitter things?"

Zhu Fanfan wanted to argue, but for some reason she just didn't want to talk, looking at her grandfather with a pitiful expression.

Zhu Jiabao pointed at Zhu Fanfan and said, "Did you see that? If it were any other time, this girl would have argued with me already. Why would she look like she's been wronged and say she's fine?"

Zhu Fanfan: ...She just didn't want the two of them to start arguing.

Xu Jingqian took it seriously: "Brother Ming, please give Fanfan some psychological counseling. We're still waiting for her to start her job!"

Fanfan has inherited her father's talents and has long been destined for a doctor's position. She might even become the hospital director in the future, so her mental state cannot be compromised.

Ming Zhengyang looked at the two of them with annoyance: "Fanfan is my goddaughter, how can I not care about her?"

Zhu Fanfan protested: "I'm fine, I don't have any psychological problems, and I'll be able to start my internship soon."

Xu Jingqian said directly, "Don't even think about coming to the hospital until your grandfather confirms that you are mentally sound. I am the vice president now, and I have the authority."

Zhu Fanfan was unconvinced, so Zhu Jiabao said, "Alright, once you can eat normally again, I'll let you come back. Who will take care of Fanfan this time?"

Xu Jingqian naturally replied, "Me? I took over my sister's job, and I'm also her uncle. She's learning the medical skills of our Xu family, so naturally I'll be the one to mentor her."

Zhu Jiabao was also conflicted: "You go and get the medicine, I'll go and pick it up. Let's give her a sleeping pill first, let her sleep for a day, and then we'll talk about other things."

Zhu Fanfan objected: "Every medicine has some side effects, I won't take it."

Xu Jingqian advised, "Although all medicines have some side effects, your current situation is special, and taking the right amount won't cause any problems."

Insomnia is a big problem; if it goes on for too long, it can lead to physical and mental breakdown. Taking one pill occasionally is fine.

After staying in the hospital for several hours, Zhu Fanfan asked to go home. In the past, she could stay in the hospital for a whole day because she was an intern and didn't feel anything was wrong. But as a patient in the hospital, she felt uncomfortable everywhere.

When Zhu Fanfan returned home, Zhu Jiabao kept a close eye on her almost every moment, which left Zhu Fanfan speechless. She was an adult and didn't need anyone to remind her when it was time to eat or sleep. She wasn't a three-year-old child. Zhu Fanfan's request to go to the old house was refused. Zhu Jiabao said that he had already taken care of everything, the new tenant had moved in, the rules had been agreed upon, and the rent would be charged according to market standards.

A few days later, Zhu Jiabao solemnly told Zhu Fanfan: "Fanfan, the results of your grandmother's case are out. The culprit has been identified. More than 100 people have been found to be involved in the case this time. Following these people, we have found more than 300 people who were traitors. They also have superiors and subordinates, and some are from other places. The number has been confirmed to be around 800, and it may be more."

Some of them are even descendants of the R country. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the household registration system was not so strict, and they took advantage of the situation to register their household registration and become Chinese citizens.

Even though they grew up and received their education in China, they still feel that this country is unworthy of being their country. They believe that China is a backward country and is inferior to others in every way. They blindly worship people from overseas, and they can even betray their country if you just say that you can take them abroad.

This time, a high-ranking official managed to infiltrate the area. After being caught, he confessed without hesitation and arrogantly stated that Chinese law could not punish him and that he would apply to the International Court of Justice, arguing that China had no right to detain him.

I don't know where he got his confidence from. Staying here would just make them expendable. Who would remember them if they weren't useful? And he even wants to apply to the International Court of Justice? Go ahead. If they can even leave the country, that means they're very capable. He's willing to risk being punished to kill them one by one. Zhu Jiabao is not someone who can be threatened.

There is another group of people who are truly despicable. They have feelings for their country and do not want to betray it, but when threatened by people from R country, they refuse to report it to the country. When something happens, they cry and wail, wanting to atone with their deaths. Although their attitude of admitting their mistakes is good, the damage is already irreparable.

Zhu Fanfan asked, "Can I apply to be the gunman who kills them?"

Zhu Jiabao reassured them, "Wait a little longer. There are still many people who haven't been caught, and the interrogations aren't over yet. It will take some more time; it won't be that quick."

Zhu Fanfan asked again, "Grandma is very cautious and doesn't leave the hospital easily. Why did she leave the hospital this time?"

Zhu Jiabao fell silent. Zhu Fanfan said, "Grandpa, don't lie to me. I want to know the truth."

Zhu Jiabao said, "I'm telling you, you can't get angry or anxious."

When the truth comes out, it can't be hidden anymore. I'm giving my granddaughter a heads-up beforehand to prevent her from going crazy. Luckily, he's on vacation for half a month, so he can keep a close eye on her.

Zhu Fanfan promised: "I promise to stay calm."

Zhu Jiabao remained silent for a long time before saying, "Back then, your grandmother didn't want to leave the hospital. People from the military compound said they wanted to see her, but refused to come in..."

After all, the vice dean has a lot of work and hardly any spare time. Moreover, her office is classified as confidential, and not just anyone can go in. If an ordinary person has something to do, it will be resolved before they can even get to the vice dean.

However, this person came under Fanfan's name, so someone reported it to his wife, who also said to wait at the hospital entrance.

Zhu Fanfan was puzzled: "Impossible, Grandma wouldn't be fooled so easily."

Zhu Jiabao didn't know how he should feel: "That's because in order to deal with your grandmother, they went to great lengths, from top to bottom, inside and out, and looked into every single detail."

Those who gathered information, those who confirmed it, and those who carried it out—every step was planned with utmost care and detail. The details had already been uncovered through interrogation. They had people in the hospital who had learned about the elixir and had contacted some high-ranking officials to confirm it discreetly.

Even after arriving at the hospital, messengers kept sending messages, constantly hinting to her daughter-in-law that Fanfan might want to see her. At least a dozen people whispered this in her ear, making her eager to see her granddaughter.

In the end, they specially arranged for someone to escort her out. This person was someone from the compound, and they even met with her a few days beforehand so she could get acquainted with him, just in case she didn't recognize him.

Zhu Fanfan still didn't believe it: "Even if we know each other, Grandma won't fall for it. Is there something else going on?"

Zhu Jiabao said, "The most important thing is the note that tricked your grandma into going out; it has your handwriting on it."
