Chapter 597: A Third Party Taking Action Against the Culprits.

The moment Lu Jingye finished, Fang Tong’s expression turned pale.

The crowd, however, exploded.

In particular, the patient’s family members were so angry that they started swearing at him and acted as if they wanted to skin him alive.

“What the f*ck?! You are so evil!”

Fang Tong controlled his trembling body and tried to make a last struggle. “It’s not like that. He’s talking nonsense.”

He wanted to glare at Lu Jingye, but the moment he met his eyes, he felt a chill run down his back. He looked away in fear and the idea of making a life and death struggle flashed past his mind.

The Chu Family said that as long as Zi Yi is ruined, it does not matter even if she dies. They promised that his parents would no longer be chased for their debts and that they can even live a wealthy life.

At the thought of this, he swiftly touched his body. He wanted to take out the knife he had hidden to stab Zi Yi while everyone’s attention was elsewhere.

However, as soon as he moved, he heard a rushing of the wind.

Whoosh!

Ding…

“Ugh…”

Looking at Fang Tong’s hand that was bleeding, everyone subconsciously turned to look at Lu Jingye, who was standing next to Zi Yi with a cold expression, along with the two leaders and also…

“Si! Second Master Lu is here!”

Lu Jianlin and Mrs. Lu were standing behind the crowd. If not for the fact that they had taken action earlier, everyone would not have noticed their arrival.

The crowd and guards who were standing in front of them had subconsciously made way for them.

Lu Jianlin and Mrs. Lu walked over at the same time.

Lu Jianlin carried an air that was powerful and his aura was sharp. When his sharp gaze swept across the crowd, everyone subconsciously felt a cold air pressing down on top of their heads.

The two of them made their way towards Zi Yi.

Zi Yi and Lu Jingye called out at the same time. “Father, Mother.”

Mrs. Lu came over and grabbed Zi Yi’s hand. She then looked at Fang Tong who was holding his hand with a twisted expression due to pain. “If you want to frame my Yiyi, you should ask if we agree to it or not! Hmph!”

Lu Jianlin saluted the two leaders and said, “We will not get involved in this incident, but we also won’t sit idly when someone is plotting against Little Zi.”

He turned to look at Lu Jingye after he said that.

Lu Jingye nodded at him and said, “Fang Tong has had contact with Eldest Aunt’s family. If my guess is right, their family promised to help him repay his debt if he successfully ruined Yiyi’s reputation.”

BAM!

Patriarch Lu who was watching the live broadcast smashed the teacup and his eyes turned sharply towards the First Madam.

The First Madam gripped the sides of her coat and tried her best to keep calm and revealed a shocked expression. “Father, I didn’t know anything about this!”

She said eagerly, “It couldn’t have been my family that did this. They have always known their place and so how could they have done such a thing?”

Patriarch Lu’s sharp gaze stared at her.

The First Madam felt her heart palpitating.

Patriarch Lu said with a thunderous expression, “The evidence is all there, don’t tell me it’s possibly fake?”

“No… it’s possible that Lu Jingye wanted to help Zi Yi minimize her responsibility and purposely pushed the blame onto us…”

BAM!

The First Madam’s voice was interrupted by Patriarch Lu heavily slamming his hand down on the table.

He looked at her with a grim expression.

The First Madam’s knees trembled under Patriarch Lu’s glare. However, this concerned her family’s safety and she started tearing up. “I don’t know what’s going on either. My family has always known their place and had never overstepped the boundaries. Father, please calm down. I will immediately call for my brothers to question them.”

“No need for that.”

The First Madam’s heart skipped a beat at his words.

She very much wanted to ask what he meant by that.

Patriarch Lu called for the housekeeper and said, “Immediately arrest all the Chu Family members and send them to the relevant department. Tell the people there that no matter who is the culprit, punish them in whatever way they should be punished.”

“Father!”

“If you wish to intercede for them, you may go in together with them.”

The First Madam was afraid to speak any further. Her hands grabbing the sides of her clothes had tightened.

…

On the other side.

The expression of Chu Jun, who was in the President’s office, had finally changed when he saw how the situation progressed. He knew that this matter was exposed and thought of asking for Lu Zhiheng’s help.

However, Lu Zhiheng spoke first. “Since this matter has been exposed, someone must come out to carry the blame.”

Chu Jun felt his heart sink. His expression was ugly as hell.

Not to mention, Lu Zhiheng’s phone rang at that very moment.

The phone call was from the First Madam and she had secretly made the call. After hearing what she said, Lu Zhiheng’s expression changed greatly.

He hastily said, “Mother, I understand.”

After hanging up the phone, he turned to Chu Jun and said, “Grandfather already knows of this. He asked the housekeeper to send all the Chu Family members to the relevant departments.”

Chu Jun’s body faltered and his face was as white as ashes. “Cousin, ask Aunt to think of a way to help the Chu Family.”

Lu Zhiheng furrowed his brow. “Mother said to follow the wishes of Grandfather first. She will think of something later. However, someone must step forward to take the blame.”

Chu Jun knew that it could only be him.

After a struggle in his heart, he nodded his head. “Cousin, don’t you worry. I know what to do.”

Lu Zhiheng breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up, walked over to him, and patted him on the shoulders. “Don’t worry. After this matter subsides, my Mother and I will find a way to fish you out of the troubled waters.”

Chu Jun nodded his head.

The men under Patriarch Lu were quick with their actions. As soon as the truth came out on Zi Yi’s side, Leader Sun received a phone call from the housekeeper in the Lu Family’s main residence.

After ending the call, Leader Sun said to Second Master Lu, “Patriarch Lu had asked us to arrest and interrogate the Chu Family immediately.”

His words had confirmed that the culprit was from the Chu Family.

Everyone was surprised.

For a moment, the drama of fighting for power within the wealthy families had surfaced in everyone’s mind.

Since the truth was more or less laid bare, Leader Sun directly tasked his men to lead Fang Tong away.

Even though the family members of the patients no longer blamed Zi Yi, none of them were in a good mood when something like this had happened to their closest relatives.

“Then what about our Father/Mother…? They are suffering right now, don’t tell me that they can’t be saved?”

“Wuuuu”

For a moment, grieving cries sounded in the hall.

The spectators and reporters dared not talk, but their gazes had subconsciously looked towards Zi Yi and Elder Tang, along with the other staff members of the hospital.

Elder Tang said to Zi Yi, “Little Zi, no matter how the patients’ families were before, doctors should have a benevolent heart. We have to find a way to cure them.”

What Elder Tang did not say was that he also had his own selfish thoughts. It just so happens that there were so many reporters present. As long as Zi Yi cured the patients of the poison, she would certainly gain fame in the industry.

Only when she becomes well-known will no one dare to easily question her abilities in the future.

Lu Jingye, Mrs. Lu, and Elder Tang all had the same thoughts.

Zi Yi thought for a moment and nodded. “I need a tube of each of the patients’ blood for testing.”
