He never expected that Xu Yang would come to his clinic for that prescription.
Old Chen staggered a step, his withered hands gripping the edge of the table tightly to keep his balance. His lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a single word.
Just then, a clear and cold police siren sounded outside the door, growing louder and louder until it stopped abruptly at the entrance of the clinic.
Two uniformed police officers walked in with serious expressions. Their sharp eyes swept over the messy scene and finally settled on Xu Yang, who was slumped on the ground, looking utterly dejected.
"Xu Yang? You are suspected of commercial fraud, framing, and endangering public safety. Come with us!"
The cold metal handcuffs gleamed with a merciless light, and with a crisp "click," like a final judgment, they firmly locked Xu Yang's wrists.
He was dragged from the ground by the police like a completely rotten lump of mud. His vacant eyes stared blankly at the familiar beams and pillars of the clinic, and all he could manage was an unconscious mutter: "It's over, it's all over, the prescription... my parents' company..."
The police car sped away, kicking up a few withered leaves.
The clinic was deathly silent.
Old Chen, his back hunched, seemed to have lost all his energy in an instant. He shakily groped for the table, trying to pick up his purple clay teacup, which he had used for half his life, but his hands were shaking so badly that the teacup fell to the ground with a "clatter" and shattered into pieces.
The brown tea stains spread quickly on the blue brick floor, like an ugly scar.
Chen Xiaoxi rushed over to support Old Man Chen, "Dad, don't hurt your health over such people, it's not worth it."
Lu Qingzhou watched all this silently, sighed without a sound, and walked out.
Arriving at the entrance of the clinic,
He took out his phone and quickly edited two messages.
He sent a message to Su Qingyao: "The operation is complete. Xu Yang, he's been handcuffed and taken away. Thanks, wife, you're the most reliable person when it matters."
Another message was sent to Mu Shaohua: "The dust has settled. The surveillance evidence chain is crucial. Shaohua, my wife, you're really ruthless."
The reply came almost instantly after the message was sent.
Su Qingyao: "(rolling her eyes) Stop being silly. How are Xiaoxi and Uncle Chen doing? If they need help with the aftermath, whether it's funding or public opinion, just let me know."
Mu Shaohua's message followed closely, with a completely different style: "Hmph, good to know. I'll keep an eye on things with the industry and commerce bureau and the media. I'll have someone investigate that Xu guy and the company behind him thoroughly."
Between the lines, the decisive and ruthless aura of a queen is fully revealed.
Looking at the completely different yet equally powerful replies on the screen, Lu Qingzhou finally revealed a tired but genuine smile.
afternoon,
Lu Qingzhou returned to the company, and his phone screen suddenly lit up, followed by a ringing sound!
The name "Chen Xiaoxi" was displayed on the screen.
Lu Qingzhou touched Chen Xiaoxi's name, his finger gliding across it lightly without hesitation, "Xiaoxi?"
On the other end of the phone,
Chen Xiaoxi's voice carried a sense of relief and calm.
There was even a hint of barely perceptible reproach: "Hey, you bad guys. The mess at the clinic is temporarily cleaned up, and my dad's spirits have improved these past two days. Thank you."
She paused for a moment, then added, "Um... that hotpot meal you owed me last time... shouldn't you pay me back?"
Before Lu Qingzhou could reply,
Lin Yinuo's energetic and mischievous voice could be clearly heard in the background of the phone: "Yes! Cousin! We have to make him treat us! And it has to be the most expensive! Order the super spicy hot pot base! Let that scoundrel who sends mass messages everywhere burn with spice! Let's see if he dares to be so perfunctory with us next time!"
Hearing the two women on the other end of the phone speaking with one voice, united in their hatred,
Lu Qingzhou held her phone, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, rubbed her temples helplessly, but the smile on her lips deepened.
