Du Changjun approached, glanced at Qiu Yan with surprise, then, after calming his breathing, said urgently:
"Doctor Hu, please help me, save Manager Gao!"
"Stop!" Gao Chong caught up and blocked Du Changjun's path. "You injured my father, you must take responsibility!"
Du Changjun: "I didn't!" He noticed that people around him were pointing and whispering about him again, and when he looked at Qiu Yan's calm expression with a faint smile, he wished he could disappear on the spot.
After carefully examining the haggard shopkeeper Gao on the ground, Doctor Hu said to Gao Chong, "Your father is just suffering from liver qi stagnation. He should go back and rest. Once he's in a better mood, everything will be fine. Don't worry, there's nothing seriously wrong."
Upon hearing this, Gao Chong felt a little relieved, but then he frowned again, thinking about his father's recent illness.
He shook his head, pointing a finger at Du Changjun, "No, you're wrong. My father was injured by Du Changjun. He just relies on his father, the headmaster, to run rampant in Baiyang..."
"Shut up!" Du Changjun's face flushed red with embarrassment.
When did he become so domineering?
Having lived for over a decade, this was the first time Du Changjun had been entangled with someone like that. He couldn't leave, nor could he stay; it was truly embarrassing. "I told you, I didn't hit your father! Besides, Doctor Hu said your father is fine and just needs to go back and rest."
After standing up from the crowd, Dr. Bai tried desperately to calm himself down. "Incompetent! What liver qi stagnation? He clearly has a cough and asthma!"
After mocking Dr. Hu, he didn't forget to avenge himself.
He raised his hand high and slapped Gao Chong across the face.
In his panic, Gao Chong ducked backward.
"Dr. Bai, you're so old, how can you bully a child?" Someone in the crowd shoved Dr. Bai, forcing him to lean forward and fall to the ground with a thud, getting a mouthful of mud.
He clutched his forehead in pain.
"Ouch, that hurts so much... Who was the hell who pushed me? Show yourself if you dare... It hurts so much..."
This scene drew laughter from the onlookers.
Even Gao Chong, who had been keeping a straight face, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He echoed the doctor's earlier sarcasm, "What a mediocre talent!"
After this commotion, Du Changjun's tense mood eased considerably.
Thinking he could get out of the predicament as soon as possible, he turned to ask Doctor Hu to examine Manager Gao's pulse and prescribe medicine, but just then, he met Qiu Yan's beautiful eyes and his expression froze.
Qiu Yan withdrew her smile, her expression returning to calm.
"Miss Qiu, Young Master Du, I have other matters to attend to today, so I will take my leave now." Doctor Hu genuinely did not want to waste his breath arguing with Doctor Bai.
He could also see that Gao Chong was being unreasonable and didn't want to get involved.
He bowed slightly to Qiu Yan and quickly walked away from this place of trouble.
Qiu Yan was also about to leave, but in a moment, Du Changjun quickly took a few steps and stretched out his arm to stop her.
"Miss Qiu, please wait!"
Because Qiu Yan had helped Old Master Mu several times, Du Changjun wanted Qiu Yan to help him out of his predicament.
At the same moment, Gao Chong thought Du Changjun was trying to escape, so he chased after him and grabbed his sleeve tightly.
Du Changjun's face darkened. In his anger, he swung his arm forcefully, and with a tearing sound, his clothes ripped.
It's unclear whether Gao Chong was too strong or Du Changjun's clothes were of poor quality.
Even so, Gao Chong still refused to let go, and Du Changjun's feelings were beyond ordinary anger.
He gritted his teeth: "You scoundrel!"
Faced with Du Changjun's angry expression, Gao Chong remained calm and insisted that Du Changjun had hit his father.
Unfortunately, Du Changjun was completely helpless against his shameless behavior.
He looked at Qiu Yan: "Miss Qiu, I know you have excellent medical skills, could you...?"
Qiu Yan: "Are we that close?"
