Chapter 183: Chapter 183 My Anger _1
Translator: 549690339
These past few days, Gu Yuanzhou has repeatedly taken me on trips down memory lane. I’ve been wondering if he’s testing me or trying to expose my relationship with Ding Yinuo.
I have no choice but to play along.
No matter what, he hasn’t earned my sympathy.
He took me away from the Song Family’s home that morning and we headed straight to the hospital.
That private hospital where Wu Lijuan was admitted.
Soon, I met the Dr. Sun who was in charge of Wu Lijuan’s treatment.
Gu Yuanzhou introduced him to me.
“This is Director Sun, a specialist in kidney diseases! He just returned from the United States a couple of years ago.”
I nodded. “Thank you for your help, Dr. Sun.”
Looking around in Dr. Sun’s office, there were pictures of him with various medical authorities hanging on the walls.
In one picture, he was even with Ding Yinuo.
It was clear that he had indeed studied in the United States and had received many awards.
Gu Yuanzhou sat next to me, glanced at me and then at Dr. Sun.
“The patient is my wife’s aunt. To me, she’s a very important family member. Please give us her diagnosis and the treatment plan for the future.”
“Sure, after conducting comprehensive tests, we concluded that Ms. Wu suffers from kidney disease. She’s had this condition for years, and lack of timely treatment led to her current state and we’ve also discussed with the patient. She indicated that her mother had died of severe kidney failure. As you can see, this disease is hereditary.”
Dr. Sun’s conclusion about Wu Lijuan’s illness was the same as Ding Yinuo’s.
Indeed, Wu Lijuan had severe kidney disease, and it could be treated symptomatically.
However, Dr. Sun’s estimation of the cause differed. He believed it was inherited, overturning Ding Yinuo’s poisoning theory.
I expressed my doubt on the spot,
“Dr. Sun, do you believe there could be a chance that the patient was poisoned?”
Dr. Sun immediately shook his head.
“That’s impossible! We didn’t find any toxins in her bloodstream. Let me share a common knowledge, if a person is poisoned with heavy metals, though the body might display no reaction after treatment, residues would persist in the hair. We’ve also tested her hair, and there’s no residual toxin.”
Dr. Sun’s description was professional, but it completely overturned my previous understanding.
I know Ding Yinuo would never lie to me.
So, I took out a box of health supplement — deep-sea fish oil from my bag and placed it in front of him.
“But this supplement does contain heavy metals. It’s poisonous ”
“Miss Song, please calm down! Your medicine might be toxic, but our hospital doesn’t conduct this kind of test. We’re responsible for the patient’s health. In other words, our duty is to treat her. We’d rather not get involved with other disputes. Moreover, if you’re dissatisfied with our treatment, you may opt for another hospital.”
“No, you must have made a mistake. Please check again ”
I had a strong feeling that something was amiss. I wanted to discuss it with Dr. Sun, but he had already stood up. “Sorry, I have other patients to attend to. Excuse me.”
He left.
I looked at Gu Yuanzhou.
He was standing in a dark corner wearing a pure black suit, staring at me.
His gaze was full of irony.
“Doesn’t this result clarify everything?”
“President Gu, what do you think this result clarifies?”
“You’ve been used by Ding Yinuo!”
“Really? Why would he use me?”
“To use you against me! Song Xiaoyun, you’re still too naïve. You don’t understand the darkness of society. Sometimes, you’re being used as a punching bag without even realizing it.”
To me, Gu Yuanzhou’s words were laughable.
Although I had a deep grudge against Ding Yinuo in the past, I knew his character.
He would never use me.
“President Gu, regardless of whether Wu Lijuan was poisoned or not, the fact remains that Ye Mengyan did poison someone. Her actions were confirmed by the driver, Ma. She switched the supplements. Did she commit this act, yes or no?”
Gu Yuanzhou retorted, “If she hadn’t caused any major impact or consequences, her actions are irrelevant. Just like when you’re crossing the street, if a child throws a small rock at you and it only hurts your foot, would you cause a fuss over it?”
“But what she threw wasn’t a rock, it was a knife!”
“So, you can’t let this go?”
“President Gu, what about the Rider!”
“Alright, if you’re so adamant about it, I’ll arrange for you to meet him.”
Next, Gu Yuanzhou made a call and asked Ayu to bring over the Rider who hit me.
The Rider was a delivery man who arrived on his motorcycle. Judging by his license plate, it was indeed the same bike that was identified by the bar owner.
He apologized to me on the spot, explaining that an accident occurred while he was making a delivery to a nearby customer.
As if trying to convince me, Gu Yuanzhou even showed a photo of Ye Mengyan to the Rider and asked if he knew her.
The Rider’s denials felt rehearsed and predictable. I wasn’t at all surprised. It seemed Gu Yuanzhou would do anything to protect Ye Mengyan.
“Do you have anything else to say?”
Gu Yuanzhou asked me.
I let out a soft laugh, “President Gu is indeed wise.”
“Do you want to speak with the Rider again to cross-verify his story?”
“No need!”
When I wanted to meet this Rider earlier, Gu Yuanzhou asked me to wait.
At that time, I knew something was off.
So, I’m almost certain that this Rider was arranged by Gu Yuanzhou, and I won’t be able to get any useful information out of him.
Indeed, Gu Yuanzhou would spare no expense for Ye Mengyan. He had spent so much time just to entertain me, even transferring Wu Lijuan to another hospital.
He really went to great lengths.
“There’s no need to ask any more questions. Whatever President Gu says, I’ll take it as it is!”
On the way back, I stayed quiet the whole time.
He drove while occasionally reaching out to hold my hand. But every time, I pulled away.
At noon, he took me to a restaurant for lunch.
During the meal, he invited a few friends who seemed to be discussing the previous order from the Thai royal family. They had made a lot of money from it.
Gu Yuanzhou seemed to be in a good mood. After a few glasses of red wine, his face turned rosy,
“We owe the success of this order to your reminders. We made a lot of money from it, a billion ”
“Congratulations, President Gu!”
“I feel like you’re my lucky charm! Lately, things seem to be going well for me whenever you’re around!”
“Really?”
“Tell me, what do you want? A house, a car, anything you want, I can give it to you.”
Gazing into his reddened eyes, I replied with a light smile, “I want Ye Mengyan imprisoned. Can President Gu do that?”
