Chapter 401: Chapter 401 The Grass on Top of the Wall
"What! So there was evidence all along?"
"See, I told you we shouldn’t have taken a stance too early. You’ve been slapped in the face now, haven’t you? The Lu Family is a major pharmaceutical dynasty; how could they possibly make such a low-level mistake?"
"That kid must be falsely accusing the Lu Family. It’s definitely some other pharmaceutical company that’s scared of the Lu Family taking their business, sending him to cause trouble on purpose."
"Why do such a thing at such a young age? Don’t you feel ashamed? Have some decency! Think about your parents for a moment; if people find out they have a son like you, how could they ever show their faces in public again?"
"I’ve believed in the Lu Family from the start."
...
The behavior of the crowd perfectly illustrated one saying: Like the wind-blown grass, they fall this way and that, ready to switch sides at the drop of a hat.
"Evidence? What evidence do you have?" Chen Wei only had one way to deal with such people: ignore them and direct his question to Lu Chenguang.
"If I’m not mistaken, the two women by your side are the sisters from the Lin Family, Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke, right? A few years ago, the Lin Family produced poison that harmed many people in Sheep City. It was thanks to me, Lu Chenguang, detecting the problem in time and leading the entire Sheep City Pharmaceutical Association to take down the Lin Family in one fell swoop, preventing more people from being poisoned."
"The Family Master of the Lin Family committed suicide out of fear of his crimes. The whole Lin Family disintegrated: some scattered, some fled. I thought you children would be too ashamed to ever return to Sheep City, but here you are, back again. Who gave you the courage!"
"And who gave you the courage to defame me, Lu Chenguang, and associate me with the despicable and shameful acts your own Lin Family committed?"
As soon as Lu Chenguang made these remarks, in the next second, all eyes focused on Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke.
"You’re talking nonsense! It’s your Lu Family who coveted our Lin Family’s property and the ancestral medical formulas, deliberately conspiring with others to frame our Lin Family! My father was driven to death; he did not commit suicide out of guilt! He was innocent!" Lin Yibai couldn’t bear it any longer and stood up to retort.
"I’m talking nonsense? All the incidents back then were backed by evidence, irrefutable evidence! Do you have any proof that your Lin Family is innocent?" Lu Chenguang clearly did not take Lin Yibai’s rebuttal seriously.
The ones who wrong you, in fact, know better than anyone else how innocent you are.
"You!" If Lin Yibai could have proven it, she would have cleared her father’s name and the Lin Family’s accusations long ago, rather than waiting until today.
She was well aware that Lu Chenguang was certain she had no evidence.
"So it’s the remnants of the Lin Family, no wonder you would do such a thing."
"Only people from the Lin Family could commit such despicable acts; that’s always been their way."
"I can’t believe the people from the Lin Family have the face to come back after causing the deaths of so many."
"She looks pretty on the outside, but who would have thought she’d be so heartless!"
"That man must have been seduced by their bodies; otherwise, anyone with a conscience wouldn’t speak up for them."
"How despicable!"
...
The scene went from siding with Lu Chenguang to collectively hurling various insults at Lin Miaoke and Lin Yibai, all in just a few minutes.
Hmph!
Lu Chenguang scoffed. The sisters Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke were too naive.
Your father, despite his cunning and strategizing, couldn’t outplay me; what can you two possibly do?
Once this incident is settled, Lu Chenguang definitely won’t let the two sisters off the hook, including Chen Wei, who had become their accomplice.
Luckily, he was perceptive enough to notice the presence of Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke; otherwise, if word of this got out, even if the Lu Family were innocent, they couldn’t avoid public censure, affecting their medicine sales.
"Why is it so lively here? What’s the quarrel about?" Just then, a voice rang out.
Everyone turned their heads to look and quickly quieted down, whispering amongst themselves.
"My God! Isn’t that Wu Lu, one of the four National Medical Saints?"
"No one told me that Wu Lu would be here. If I had known, I should have dressed more formally."
"I remember Family Master Lu mentioned before that there would be a surprise at this new drug release conference. Could that surprise be Elder Wu Lu?"
"I’m sure it is!"
"Heavens! Elder Wu is my idol!"
...
Seeing Wu Lu arrive, Lu Chenguang was not surprised, as it was indeed he who had invited Wu Lu to the event, to be a special guest of honor at the Lu family’s new drug release conference.
Having a National Medical Saint to promote it, he believed the drug would surely sell even better and gain renown throughout the nation! The world!
Now that Ancient Medical practice was reviving, not only in Great Xia but also in the Western world, which had come to understand the formidable power of ancient medicine.
Or rather, they had always been aware, otherwise they wouldn’t be racing to register patents for various Ancient Medical remedies.
It was a shame that some disappointing figures among the Great Xia’s millennia of culture had led to gaps in the valuable knowledge passed down through Ancient Medical traditions.
"Elder Wu, it’s just a minor issue. A few ignorant folks stirred up trouble for no reason, claiming that the new drug released by my Lu family is toxic. Isn’t that funny? Xiong Qi, Azalea, and Wild Grass are universally recognized as miracle drugs for lowering blood pressure, how could they possibly be toxic?"
Lu Chenguang couldn’t wait to share this joke with Wu Lu, hoping to make him laugh.
He believed this should help to close the gap between himself and the National Medical Saint.
"Xiong Qi, Azalea, Wild Grass... you mixed these three together?" Wu Lu asked Lu Chenguang unexpectedly.
"Yes, after testing, we found that if we combine Xiong Qi, Azalea, and Wild Grass in the right proportions, their blood pressure-lowering effect can be increased by at least threefold!" Lu Chenguang replied.
He hoped to show Wu Lu how strong the Lu family’s pharmaceutical industry was so that joining the Lu family would definitely not be a bad choice, rather, it would be a good one.
"Foolish! You are foolish!" Wu Lu, however, scolded Lu Chenguang as a fool upon hearing this.
"What’s going on?"
"Could it be that the medicine really is toxic?"
"Uh... another twist?"
...
"Elder Wu, what do you mean by that? I... I don’t understand what you’re saying?" Lu Chenguang began to feel that something was not quite right.
Could it be that the young man was right after all?
"When these three medicines, Xiong Qi, Azalea, and Wild Grass are mixed together, they produce a toxin. This toxin acts as a slow poison for patients with high blood pressure. Their condition may seem to improve temporarily, but over time, within half a year, they will be severely poisoned and die, with no chance of recovery!"
After Wu Lu’s next words, everyone, including Lu Chenguang, felt they sounded familiar, as if they had heard them before.
Upon careful reflection, weren’t these words exactly what Chen Wei had just said?
What’s going on? Why would Wu Lu, one of the four National Medical Saints, say the same thing as Chen Wei?
Noticing everyone’s gazes turning towards Chen Wei, Wu Lu became curious as to what they were looking at and also turned to look.
His eyes widened in shock!
