The Sweetest Medicine - Chapter 34

As the old aunt watched her precious daughter being slapped by Yu Gangan, her eyes immediately burned red. When she finally came to her senses, she rushed over to Yu Gangan and gave her a powerful push.

Yu Gangan lost her footing and stumbled a few steps back into the wall.

The worried Song Chabai immediately stood up anxiously and called out, “Gangan…”

Yu Gangan held onto the wall and stabilized her footing, she then waved her hands and reassured Song Chabai, “I’m fine.”

Song Chabai gripped onto the handbag in her lap as her face turned pale with discomfort. After a moment of hesitation, she sat back comfortably in her chair.

The old aunt glared at Yu Gangan, her eyes like daggers filled with hatred, “Yu Gangan, if you don’t give me an explanation today, I’m not going to let you off for this!”

“You gave Xinxin one slap, so I will give you back ten!”

Yu Gangan revealed a smile, it was cold and filled with ridicule, “I’m sure she knows why I slapped her!”

He Wanxin’s eyes burned as she glared at Yu Gangan. She could practically tear her cousin to pieces at that moment. With her teeth gritted, she growled, “How am I supposed to know?”

“What am I supposed to know?”

“Oh yes, you have no idea, you’re innocent. You’re so pure that you can step out of mud without being stained and walk out of a toilet without stinking!” Yu Gangan mocked.

“You…”

“You disregarded grandfather’s image and Yueming Hall’s reputation. A slap is nothing; I gave you a slap because nothing’s gone wrong yet. If something went wrong and a client lost their life or got hurt, a slap wouldn’t be all you’d get,” Yu Gangan cut in. Her every word was firm and powerful as she approached He Wanxin intimidatingly.

He Wanxin subconsciously retreated a couple of steps in surprise.

With a flash of anger in her eyes, she yelled, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand!”

Yu Gangan could immediately tell that she was trying to act innocent, so she taunted, “Who said a pig’s brain is the most stupid? A pig is obviously smarter than you. At least they don’t go around digging their own grave! Look at what you’ve done! Did someone hit you on the head with a hammer? All you think about all day is how to do harm to others.”

She then pulled out the examination report for the powdered substance and placed it in front of He Wanxin, “I can dismiss the fact that you’re always trying to hurt me, after all, we’ve never been on the same page, but how has your patient offended you. The old man simply had a sore back, yet you prescribed him morphine powder. Morphine powder is a powerful analgesic. Sure, it works great for pain relief, but it’s a prohibited substance. You know that, right? Long term usage could lead to neurotoxicity and addiction!”

Yu Gangan’s uncle looked at the two women questioningly. In an instant, his expression changed and he turned to He Wanxin in horror, “Is this true?”

The old man looked like he was about to burst a blood vessel!

Yu Gangan’s auntie didn’t understand medicine, so she had no idea what morphine powder was.

But, due to her husband’s expression, she also turned serious. Without attempting to confirm the facts, she immediately denied, “That’s impossible! Xinxin would never do that. Don’t wrongly accuse her.”

“Wrongly accuse her?” Yu Gangan laughed in ridicule as she walked over to the medicine table.

She could still remember clearly which drawer He Wanxin fetched the brown powder from.

As soon as she pulled it out, she placed it on top of the table and said with anger, “He Wanxin, don’t tell me this is just a normal medicinal powder. If you say that, I will immediately call the FDA ¹ to come for a check.”

From the moment that Yu Gangan mentioned morphine powder, He Wanxin already fell into a panic.

Her entire body was tense and her fist was clenched so tightly that she almost crushed her own fingers; that was the only way she could contain her fear.
