Chapter 705: Chapter 706: The Plan Falls Through 7
This situation has gone far beyond Yu Laoâs expectations. Clearly, he deliberately mixed the medicine inâeveryone took it, so it shouldnât be getting better!
He could then pin the blame on Nianyang, making her unable to practice medicine ever again.
He calculated everything clearly and logically, so where did things go wrong?
Liang Baoguo, with his straightforward nature, asked, "Yu Lao, didnât you say everyone was beyond saving? What is happening nowâis this their last spark?!?"
Yu Laoâs face looked extremely troubled. Ever since he gained control of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Familyâs management, he had been praised and complemented wherever he went, without making a single mistake.
He had become accustomed to being flawless, keeping everything within his plan, but now a slip-up had occurred, and he felt very angry.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Lao refused to believe these people could recover on their own, so he nodded, accepting the conclusion of a last spark.
Then Nianyang approached a soldier across from him, rolled a cotton swab in the vomit on the ground, and calmly smelled the vomit amidst everyoneâs disgusted gazes. She pondered slightly and said, "Chairman Ji, everyone has expelled the influenza virus from their bodies. As long as we clean up the vomit thoroughly, avoid contact, and maintain hygiene, nothing will happen!"
Even though Ji Yuan had seen and handled many storms, at this moment, his jaw dropped.
He widened his eyes, "Youâre saying theyâre fine? The virus is gone?"
Nianyang pointed at the vomit on the floor, "Yes, the virus in their bodies has been forced out."
Yu Lao shouted, "This is absurd! You mustnât babble nonsense; how could viruses be expelled from the body in such a way? You donât have any common sense!"
With an innocent expression, Nianyang replied, "Yu Lao, yesterday you taught me a method. I studied it afterwards, and by following your method, it could at most enhance antibodies, but the infection risk was high, addressing symptoms without curing the root cause. So, I added a cold-natured Thousand Leaf Grass and removed several warm medicinal ingredients, causing everyone to vomit naturally."
Yu Laoâs expression changed drastically, "You changed the medicine?"
Nianyang nodded with a smile, using her eyes to tell him, "You might have your plans, but I have my ways." Yesterday Nianyang felt something wasnât right, so she snuck in at night and found that all the prepared medicines had been swapped out. So, she just went ahead and changed them all to her formula.
This flu was seasonal in the later generations, so mixing up medication was easy for her.
Yu Lao never expected to miscalculateâNianyang had already figured out his intentions and turned the tables on him!
His eyes were filled with a raging sea, but finally, they sank, and his voice aged suddenly, "But when I just checked their pulses, they were beyond saving..."
Well, thatâs just her trick!
With an innocent look, Nianyang said, "During vomiting, the medicineâs effects onset, which was when everyone felt most miserable; itâs natural for pulses to be weakâthatâs normal!"
Yu Lao was furious, "If you knew, why didnât you say so earlier? And why didnât you inform me about the medicine change? Are you rebelling?"
Nianyang, feeling wronged, said, "I was calculating the time all along, and you didnât give me a chance to speak when you came in."
Yu Lao was so angry his beard nearly flew off. Originally, he planned to cripple Nianyangâs wings, but this clever girl had turned the tables on him, making those recent words an embarrassing backfire.
What carelessness, truly!
