"The Nine Heavens Needles in my hand are indeed the property of the Dongfang family," Jiang Yi continued, "They were given to me by the Dongfang family. It's likely that the members of the Dongfang family don't know about this, which is why they came looking for trouble."
"Mr. Jiang, you know people from the Dongfang family?" Shen Lu was a bit stunned.
"Mhm!" Jiang Yi nodded. "Dongfang Mei is the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family."
Hearing this, Shen Lu was completely taken aback. She never imagined that Dongfang Mei was the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family in the capital.
Suddenly, Shen Lu started to laugh. "If those old man and woman in the park knew about your relationship with Miss Dongfang, I wonder what expression they would have on their faces. They are merely members of the Dongfang family, but Miss Dongfang is the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family, and her mother, Madam Liu, is the head of the Dongfang family." Shen Lu said with a smile.
"We have important matters to attend to in the capital. I can let Dongfang Mei know I'm here!" Jiang Yi said.
Shen Lu knew how complicated Jiang Yi's relationship with Dongfang Mei was, and she nodded.
"Beep beep…" Shen Lu's phone suddenly rang. After answering, Shen Lu told Jiang Yi that she had to go visit a friend and then hurried away.
Jiang Yi found it a bit strange. How could Shen Lu have friends in the capital? He figured Shen Lu was probably worried about him asking about the hideout of that assassin organization, so she deliberately found an excuse to avoid him. In reality, the first thing Jiang Yi needed to do in the capital wasn't about the assassin organization, but to find his sister. Jiang Yi knew what Shen Lu was thinking. She was worried that he couldn't handle that assassin organization and would rush to his death, which was why she was unwilling to tell him the organization's hideout.
After finishing his meal, Jiang Yi didn't rush to leave the restaurant. He sent a text message to Sun Shicai, asking him to come and meet him there. About half an hour later, Sun Shicai arrived. The moment he saw Jiang Yi, Sun Shicai's face immediately broke into a respectful smile, and he quickly greeted Jiang Yi.
"How is the matter I entrusted to you going?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Mr. Jiang, please give me a little more time!" Sun Shicai said helplessly. "The old master of the Xiao family is no ordinary person. It's very difficult to get an audience with him. I'm currently trying to find a way. Rest assured, I will complete the task."
"You should return to Jiang Province!" Jiang Yi said. He had already arrived in the capital, and he would handle this matter himself. He didn't need Sun Shicai's help anymore. Sun Shicai had lost his value.
Sun Shicai was stunned when he heard this! "Mr. Jiang, please, give me three more days…" Sun Shicai thought Jiang Yi was displeased with his efficiency.
"I'll handle this myself!" Jiang Yi's gaze fell on Sun Shicai. "You return to Jiang Province and find Bai Zhen…"
"When will you give me the antidote…" Sun Shicai pleaded with a look of desperation.
"What's the rush? When the time comes, I'll naturally give it to you," Jiang Yi said, raising an eyebrow.
Sun Shicai's face was grim. He could only bid farewell to Jiang Yi and return to Jiang Province. Jiang Yi took a deep breath. Sun Shicai hadn't received the antidote yet, so he could only obediently return to Jiang Province. Even if he was given ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to escape.
After paying the bill, Jiang Yi left the restaurant and went out onto the street. Jiang Yi planned to find a job at a hospital. With a job, he would have a legitimate identity in the capital.
As he crossed the street, a private hospital came into view. Upon entering the hospital lobby, Jiang Yi saw an injured migrant worker being carried out of a car. The migrant worker was severely injured, with a steel bar piercing his chest. This kind of injury was a huge test for any doctor. The steel bar had to be removed as soon as possible for the migrant worker to survive. However, once the steel bar was removed, there would be severe internal bleeding, and the migrant worker's life would still be in danger. The situation was extremely urgent.
A middle-aged doctor wearing glasses walked down from upstairs. Upon seeing the migrant worker, he immediately frowned and said to the nurses, "Take him away."
The nurses were stunned! "Our hospital will not treat this patient," the middle-aged doctor said indifferently. "Our hospital's principle is to only treat the wealthy; we do not treat the poor."
"Director Su, this migrant worker's condition is very serious. Only our hospital in Cheng Nan can treat him. If our hospital doesn't treat him, he probably won't survive," one of the nurses said helplessly.
"His life or death has nothing to do with us!" Director Su stared at the nurse and said angrily, "This is our hospital's rule. If you don't want to work here, then get lost."
Hearing this, the nurses dared not speak further. Director Su then called for security guards to escort the migrant worker and his fellow workers out of the hospital.
"Stop right there!" A voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice. They saw a man dressed flamboyantly walking in from outside. This man was around thirty years old and had a scantily clad beauty in his arms.
"Young Master, why have you come in person?" Director Su quickly walked over, greeting him with a face full of respect.
"Can't I come?" the man said with a snort.
Director Su quickly apologized for his previous words. "Treat this migrant worker!" the man said to Director Su. "This guy works for my real estate company and accidentally fell from upstairs. There were many media outlets present at the time. If he dies, I'll have to pay a lot of compensation, and it will also have a significant impact on my real estate company."
Hearing this, Director Su's face showed a look of difficulty. "Don't forget, even this hospital belongs to me. I have the final say here!" the man said with an unhappy expression.
"Young Master, that's not what I meant!" Director Su quickly said. "This migrant worker's condition is very serious, and we may not be confident in our ability to treat him. I'm worried that if we fail to treat him properly, it will not only ruin your grand plans but also ruin our hospital's reputation. It would be a loss that outweighs the gain!"
"Then what do you suggest?" the man asked.
"How about this? There's a utility room outside. I'll have someone move all the equipment to the utility room, and we can treat the migrant worker there. If he's cured, then everything is fine. If not, we can shirk responsibility. The migrant worker didn't enter our hospital building, so if he's not cured, the responsibility won't fall on us, nor on you, Young Master," Director Su said with a grim expression.
"Haha…" The man burst into laughter and patted Director Su on the shoulder. "Director Su, your idea is brilliant. Alright, let's do as you say!"
