Chapter 525: Chapter 483: Still Not Going to Slap the Face?

"Do you think I’ve even had a chance to speak?" Jiang Zhe retorted.

Reporter: "..."

Reporter: "All right, we won’t ask you any more questions now, this is your time to respond."

Only then did Jiang Zhe speak slowly and deliberately, "My response to all your questions is very simple, this influenza is just a common flu. With the medication I provided, you just need to take it for a day or two and then rest well. There’s no need to be overly anxious. These medications are also very cheap, and I believe many people who are using them have already fully recovered. So, I don’t know what exactly you are questioning?"

"That is not the ordinary flu you claim it to be, but a highly contagious form of influenza, and those medications of yours are ineffective, potentially delaying the proper treatment!"

"Oh, where’s the evidence?" Jiang Zhe countered.

"Twenty-some years ago, even ten or seven to eight years ago, we’ve been through..."

Jiang Zhe cut him off, "So that means that what’s happening now must be the same as before? Do you not want to get well, or do you not want the Beicheng Continent to get well?"

"But no matter what, you can’t just..."

"Am I the medical professional here, or are you? I just happened to encounter people who needed this medicine, so I sold it to them. Is there a problem? Or perhaps you’d like to solve their problems for them?"

"But you still haven’t provided clear..."

Jiang Zhe continued to interrupt, "What kind of clear proof are you asking for? Can’t the fact that many people have improved be considered evidence?"

"You know full well who those people who improved are, what’s really going on. Are those people really genuine patients? Without the evidence from medical research institutes to prove your words, it’s all just empty talk. It’s irresponsible to all of us!"

Jiang Zhe’s counterattacks were powerful, forcing the reporter to repeatedly change the subject in an effort to overpower her.

Those watching the live broadcast found it extremely thrilling.

However, the reporter’s words also made sense, and since they were asking about issues closely related to everyone, even though many wanted to side with Jiang Zhe, they couldn’t help but share the same doubts as the reporter. What exactly was Jiang Zhe doing all this for?

Was it for personal gain or to court attention?

Or was it revenge against the Beicheng Continent?

This made it difficult for many to empathize with Jiang Zhe, as even if their emotions sided with her, their reasoning would not allow it.

Jiang Zhe spoke calmly, "Since you don’t believe what I say, what about the medical research institutes?"

The reporters scoffed. The medical research institutes on the Beicheng Continent were independent from the four major families as well as from the Elders Council.

They were known for their integrity and strictness, always focusing solely on researching medication without getting involved in anything else.

If Jiang Zhe could actually get them to endorse her, that would be convincing.

But how could that be possible?

The old men at the institute were notoriously uncompromising. They showed no favoritism towards their former students Jiang Xi and Zhuo Jinman, judging strictly on the facts.

What Jiang Zhe was doing could hardly meet their standards.

The reporters, who had been sent by the pharmacies, had already decided in their hearts that Jiang Zhe was only after illicit wealth, so they fundamentally did not believe she had any evidence, let alone such proof.

Fang Jun also chuckled to himself, what did Jiang Zhe take the Beicheng Continent for? Did she really expect the medical research institute to vouch for her?

Keep in mind that even Zhuo Jinman might not be able to sway those people!

Publicly making such statements, wasn’t she afraid of being humiliated?

Those watching the live broadcast were of mixed reactions, some gloating, knowing that Jiang Zhe’s façade was about to be exposed, while others couldn’t help but worry for her.

Jin Ruoshi was in the film crew, watching the live stream and waiting for the makeup artist to do her makeup. She kept pinching her agent’s hand, swelling the agent’s arm.

"Ruoshi, calm down!"

"I am calm! What issue could my idol possibly not solve? I just want to see what kind of consequences those who provoke her will face!" As she spoke, Jin Ruoshi pinched her agent’s arm even harder.

Xiaobao, who was watching the live stream, asked Fatty, "What do we do, what do we do, how do we handle this?"

"My dear, I don’t know either. The idol said this for a reason, right?" Fatty scratched his head.

"It’s over; it’s over! The idol might have to leave Beicheng Continent this time! If she leaves, I’ll leave too! There’s nothing holding me back here anyway!"

Fatty grabbed her arm, "Together! Brothers share weal and woe!"

Just as everyone had their own thoughts, Qin Jingchen appeared.

Many people had seen him at Jiang Zhe’s return banquet to the Jiang Family last time and immediately made way for him.

It was at this moment that many people saw the several elders accompanying him.

All of them were white-haired elderly people over seventy years old, looking energetic. They hadn’t even approached when one of them said loudly, "Who is questioning Jiang Zhe?"

The journalists erupted in excitement; the speaker was none other than Huangfu Zhen, the director of Beicheng Continent’s Medical Research Institute and a towering figure in Beicheng Continent’s medical community.

However, he devoted himself to pharmacology, focusing all his efforts on pharmaceutical research. Thus, he infrequently delved into medical research, and compared to Zhuo Jinman, his fame was not as widespread.

And because he had remained detached and uninterested in other matters, his reputation was not prominent.

But those who knew understood that he was not only the mentor to Zhuo Jinman and Jiang Xi, but also a celebrated figure who had trained numerous elite doctors on Beicheng Continent in earlier years.

The medical research institute he oversaw stayed away from politics and the economy and rarely interfered with the outside world, but this certainly did not mean his authority was any less respected.

His appearance here shocked those who recognized him.

The journalists were also surprised.

Huangfu Zhen walked up to Jiang Zhe, a stern look on his face, "Who has been bullying you?"

"Bullying is not exactly the word, just some things needing clarification," Jiang Zhe nodded.

"What’s there to explain? This outbreak of influenza is just the common type, the one most frequently seen in winter. The medication you used was completely correct and effective, and ever since it was administered, the number of flu cases has been rapidly declining. Now, is there still someone talking nonsense?" Huangfu Zhen asked.

The journalists were even more astonished upon hearing this.

Huangfu Zhen personally came to the site just to clarify things for Jiang Zhe?

With his status, his statement carried significant weight and could indeed vindicate Jiang Zhe.

So, Jiang Zhe’s medicine was not problematic?

After seeing the journalists looking at each other, Huangfu Zhen asked, "Well, is there anything else you want to ask?"

"No, no more questions," the journalists replied, awkwardly retreating.

The audience watching the live stream, some of whom knew of Huangfu Zhen, immediately understood that there was no turning around this situation.

Others were still asking who Huangfu Zhen was and why he had such authority.

"He’s the mentor to Jiang Xi and Zhuo Jinman, you know?" Someone offered a simple explanation.
