Chapter 636: Chapter 636: You Are My Life 4

"You actually stand by and watch as over two hundred people in the village await death, do you have no humanity?"

The village elder was in tears, the pressure he’d faced over the week had nearly crushed his old bones!

Xiang Minhai’s expression was somewhat subtle, "Elder, rest assured, we are intensifying our efforts to research a new medicine, and we believe results will come very soon."

"You’ve been saying that for a week now!" the village elder said indignantly.

"This epidemic is fierce, and we’re doing our best to solve it, please bear with us a little longer."

"Bear with it? Why don’t you try bearing with it and see, human lives are at stake, it’s easy for you to talk lightly when it’s not you dying.

Now that this doctor can save us, why are you stopping her!"

As soon as he heard his faith in traditional medicine, Xiang Minhai’s tone changed.

"Traditional medicine is deceitful, do you want her to kill you all!"

"The one who wants to kill us right now is you!"

Seeing the village elder getting more agitated, Xia Weibao reached out, took hold of his shoulder, and signaled him to stop talking.

She had seen it clearly, these people, they never intended to buy her silver needles!

"I’ll ask you one more time, are you going to buy the silver needles or not!"

She’d tried politeness first, but if they refused to buy, then they couldn’t blame her for forcing her way in!

"No..."

"What’s going on!"

Xiang Minhai hadn’t finished speaking when an authoritative and chilling voice came from behind.

Everyone turned to look and saw Yan Fei had appeared behind them without their notice.

Xiang Minhai’s face changed, and he hurried forward.

"Mr. President, how did you get here? And why aren’t you wearing a protective suit, this place is full of pathogens, you can easily get infected."

Yan Fei didn’t heed his words but asked with a severe face, "What exactly happened here!"

The epidemic had broken out while he was on an overseas visit.

Unable to return immediately, he had left the situation in the hands of the Vice President.

Only upon ending his visit and returning to the country did he learn that the villagers had been quarantined!

Enraged, he had a confrontation with the Vice President on the spot and came over to see the situation despite everyone’s objections.

Xiang Minhai was somewhat panicked by his gaze, "Your Excellency, it’s some dispute among the villagers inside."

Upon mentioning the villagers inside, Yan Fei’s expression grew even darker.

"Dr. Xiang, was it you who suggested the lockdown of Qinghua Village?"

"Yes... it was."

"Nonsense! There are more than two hundred living people inside, and you just decide to lock it down!"

The wrath of an emperor, corpses strewn a thousand miles.

Xiang Minhai’s legs trembled with fear, "Your... Your Excellency, the epidemic has a high mortality rate and spreads quickly, we haven’t yet found a treatment, so... so... we had to isolate them temporarily."

"If it’s about isolation, why didn’t you evacuate them to other places for quarantine! Locking them in the outbreak zone, do you want them to die!

Over two hundred lives, doctors should have the hearts of parents, how could you just watch as over two hundred people are sent to their deaths!"

Faced with this accusation, Xiang Minhai was drenched in cold sweat.

Completely at a loss for a rebuttal.

He had thought a solution would be found quickly, that once the new drug was researched, these people could be saved.

Moreover, they were already carrying the pathogen, so even with quarantine, those who were going to be infected would still get infected.

Therefore, it was an unnecessary step.

But now, hearing Yan Fei’s rebuke, every word pierced his heart.

"Have you finished arguing, will you give me the silver needles or not."

Amidst the standoff between the two men, a clear female voice came through.
