Grandpa Qi felt a pang of disappointment and sighed, "It really was just a bluff. There aren't that many unsung miracle doctors in this world."
"I'll go to the Medical Association myself later and ask. No matter how much it costs or what the conditions are, I'll agree as long as Su Jian is cured."
The adopted daughter nodded, clearly in a bad mood. She would agree to anything, but it was all just talk!
If the other party wants that pill, would the old man give it to them?
ridiculous!
Not his biological child, never his biological child. A few traces of resentment rose in the adopted daughter's heart. Before going to the birthday party, she had hoped that after seeing Doctor Zhou, her son's virus could be resolved!
But I never expected this—
I never expected it to be that bastard's son! It feels like I've been tricked into eating a pile of shit.
Seeing Yu Anping come down the stairs, the adopted daughter stood up, gave Yu Anping a wink, and then said to Old Master Qi:
"Dad, I've been feeling dizzy and lightheaded these past few days. I'm going back to my room to rest."
After saying that, he went back to his room on his own.
A few minutes later, Yu Anping quietly entered her room, gently closed the door without making a sound.
The adopted daughter was sitting on the sofa in front of the French windows. Yu Anping walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite her, asking in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"Could something have happened at the banquet?"
The adopted daughter rubbed her temples, her head aching, and suppressed her fear and hatred as she told Yu Anping that she had learned at the banquet that Zhou Yi was the miracle doctor.
Seeing Yu Anping's shocked and confused expression, the adopted daughter could guess that even Yu Anping did not know that Zhou Yi knew medicine.
The adopted daughter's face darkened, and she felt a growing resentment towards Yu Anping: "Yu Anping, can't you be of any use!"
"You couldn't even investigate something this simple? He's just a college student, not even studying medicine, so how did he suddenly become a miracle doctor! And he even showed up at Mrs. Yang's birthday party as a distinguished guest of the Yang family!!"
"I really have no idea what you've been investigating these past few days."
Yu Anping silently endured his adopted daughter's complaints. He glanced towards the door and only told her to keep her voice down so that Old Master Qi wouldn't hear.
Yu Anping pursed his lips, pondering before speaking, "I didn't expect him to know medicine."
"It seems that the Zhou family has been preparing for this for more than 20 years."
"No wonder he was able to find out when I poisoned him... Damn it! I always thought he had a highly skilled doctor by his side, but I never expected that he was also skilled in medicine."
"It seems we can't poison him anymore! That would be like walking into a trap; we need to use another method."
Hearing Yu Anping's words, the adopted daughter sneered, "Other ways? Ha, what ways could you possibly have? If it weren't for you back then, would we be in such a passive position now?"
"Useless! I'll have to take charge."
"You don't need to go to great lengths to kill him. In just a few days, he will be sentenced to death for poisoning Mrs. Yang."
What?
What constitutes poisoning as a form of murder?
Yu Anping's eyes narrowed sharply. He took a deep breath and leaned forward towards his adopted daughter: "What do you mean by that? What have you done?"
The adopted daughter proudly raised her head and told Yu Anping everything about how she recognized Zhou Yi and then took the opportunity to poison him.
She was congratulating herself on her cleverness in knowing how to use others' strengths against them, but she didn't see Yu Anping's panicked face!
After hearing the whole story, Yu Anping stood frozen in place!
A sense of horror arose in his heart towards his adopted daughter.
How could she manage to poison someone in front of so many people without batting an eye?
Under those circumstances, what the adopted daughter did was extremely dangerous. The chef could see her as soon as he looked up, but he probably didn't think anything of it at the time.
But once Mrs. Yang's poisoning symptoms appear, the chef will become the most compelling witness!
That's a resort, there are so many security cameras!
Moreover, with so many staff members on site, if any one of the waiters happened to come to the back door, they could witness her poisoning the food.
Such a dangerous method of poisoning—if it were him, he definitely wouldn't have done it!
Instead, they will look for other opportunities.
But the adopted daughter personally took the risk, and the timing was so good that she was able to calmly leave without arousing anyone's suspicion after poisoning him?
The adopted daughter even called Mrs. Yang in advance so that even if the surveillance footage showed that the adopted daughter had been to the resort, Mrs. Yang and the staff could prove that the adopted daughter had suddenly fallen ill and left the resort.
All of this was too coincidental, and too decisive.
Her courage and decisiveness alone made Yu Anping feel cold towards his adopted daughter. He wondered if he would also be affected by her once his son took power... But why think so much? As long as his son was well, he was willing to accept anything.
After regaining his senses, Yu Anping still felt that this was not a good thing to do. His adopted daughter had poisoned a high-ranking official in the capital!
With so many security cameras in the resort, it's hard to guarantee that this scene wasn't captured.
"You've taken too much of a risk. You should have come back and discussed it with me."
The adopted daughter could tell what he was thinking at a glance. A good-for-nothing is a good-for-nothing. She sneered, "What's the use of discussing it with you? You're afraid of everything."
"With your attitude, you can't do this or that! I'm afraid that bastard child will be returning to the family line by now, and you still won't find an opportunity to make a move."
"Don't worry, I checked the security cameras at the villa before I took action. There are no cameras near the back gate."
"Besides, the poison in my bag is the colorless and odorless potent poison I got from you before, so no one will associate it with us."
Yu Anping stood up uneasily, with a bad feeling about him. He said, "I hope it's as you think. You should stay at home for now."
"I'll send someone to inquire about it."
-
At the same time.
After the banquet ended, the high-ranking officials and wealthy young men left the resort one after another.
Zhou Yi checked the time. Shen Bingyan had sent him her flight information before boarding the plane, and he estimated that the plane would arrive in Kyoto in about an hour.
The two had missed each other for so long, and now that they were finally able to meet, Zhou Yi didn't want to miss the chance to pick him up at the airport. He went over to greet Director Yang and said he had to leave first, explaining that he was going to the airport to pick up a friend.
Seeing the anxious look on Zhou Yi's face, Leader Yang laughed and said, "Judging from your eagerness, are you going to pick up your girlfriend?"
Shift your gaze from Zhou Yi to his assistant behind him.
These days, the assistant has been in charge of arranging Zhou Yi's daily life, as well as acting as his driver and bodyguard: "Assistant, take my car."
Zhou Yi quickly declined, saying, "Thank you for your kind offer, but my friend is not a superficial person."
"Besides, how can you let just anyone sit in your car? Even if you let me sit there, I'd feel awkward."
