612 Full To The Point Of Bursting

"Well… I do. However, if he doesn't have anything to do with Pengzhan Industries, the police might not buy it even if he acts as the scapegoat…" Cihua said slowly.

"Master Bing, I have someone. He's a distant relative of mine and if we offer enough of a price, he'll do it. He's the type to throw his life away for money." Gubang said after some thought. "The most important thing is that he has some history with Chu Pengzhan!"

"Hm, not bad. It's decided then. Yaow.a.n.g will make the medicine and Zhong Pinliang will be the one to carry out the poisoning. If anything happens, this distant relative of Jin Gubang will act as the scapegoat!" Master Bing was already getting excited. He concluded the plan after just that. "Yaow.a.n.g, it's best if you make a rarer poison that's harder for the hospital to trace. This'll really destroy Pengzhan Industries. The impact will be lessened if it's known that they were innocent of the crime."

"Don't worry, Master Bing." Yaow.a.n.g said confidently. "There are only a few people who can see through my poisons! I'm called the King of Medicine for a reason! I've dedicated my life to my research! In my entire life, I've only lost to one single person who has vanished for more than ten years now!"

(Yaow.a.n.g means King of Medicine. I use Yaow.a.n.g instead of that because I wasn't sure if it was his name or t.i.tle, and… because I don't want everyone to be calling him the King of Medicine… It's kinda weird in Chinese already, let alone English)

Yaow.a.n.g naturally had what it took. Among all the hidden houses' great doctors, Yaow.a.n.g took the prime spot. No one would dare claim to be the best, even if Yaow.a.n.g called himself number two! His prowess was also why Uncle Zhu was saved despite his heavy injuries.

"Mm, that's good." Master Bing was aware of how good Yaow.a.n.g was, to begin with. "We'll wait for Zhong Pinliang to wake up from the hospital before carrying out the plan! Old Zhong, don't dwell on it too much. I won't let you suffer any losses. Isn't Pinliang lacking a kidney? I'll look into getting him a kidney these couple days!"

"Thank you, Master Bing!" Fabai was instantly delighted. Pinliang's loss had always been on his mind and Master Bing's pledge to look for a source for a replacement kidney was the best news he could have received right now.

Lin Yi, naturally, had no idea of the people scheming against him. Even if he did know, he'd just smile. Yaow.a.n.g? A king of medicine who even needed Miracle Doctor Kang's Golden Creation medicine for an injury? How were there this many shameless people in the world? One really shouldn't underestimate the wonders you'd find in such a vast place.

He parked the car under the Schola.r.s.ea Bookshop and accompanied the two Misses into the shop.

Mengyao and Yushu went to the high school student section, which didn't interest Lin Yi. Even if he couldn't get into college, Pengzhan would still place him in the same school Mengyao would go to. He wasn't Mengyao anyway and didn't care if he entered college through his own efforts or not.

Rather than looking at books all day, he'd rather do some research on something more important; he was pretty busy, after all.

"I'll go to the medicine section. I'll wait for you guys to finish over there." Lin Yi notified Mengyao.

"Okay…" Mengyao was currently looking at a new mock exam compilation book, so he responded only faintly to Lin Yi.

Yushu was focused on a book as well, but responded to Lin Yi with a wave of her hand in response, indicating that she got it.

Lin Yi smiled and went to the medicine section. He'd met Guan Xuemin here that day. In the blink of an eye, a month had pa.s.sed, and he founded a new medicine company with the professor. Life really was full of surprises.

But what was really unexpected was the two people Lin Yi saw in the medicine section!

Kang Zhaoming had arrived at Songshan four days ago. He had a mission on his hands and that was to hit on Guan Xin! He needed to get close to her and get the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing recipe from Xuemin!

Naturally, he didn't think that Xuemin was the one who'd made the recipe. As far as he could tell, Xuemin was the same as his grandpa Miracle Doctor Kang. He must have met some master of medicine under a coincidental circ.u.mstance and gotten the recipe from him.

As the expert of hitting on girls, Zhaoming naturally wouldn't just run up to Guan Xin in the hospital and give her flowers; it was simply too old fas.h.i.+oned and he didn't think that Guan Xin would say yes if he professed his love to her. According to Zhaoming's research, Guan Xin had no experience with relations.h.i.+ps. He'd only scare her if he did that.

And so, he decided to create a coincidental encounter in an appropriate place to make it seem like he'd only b.u.mped into her! If he acquainted himself with her that way, the chances of Guan Xin having her guard up would be extremely low.

But creating that encounter was a challenge. He'd been hanging in front of Guan Xin's house for the last four days to no avail! It didn't take him a lot of trouble to find out where Xuemin lived, but while he did see Guan Xin, he couldn't just approach her and hit on her, could he?

She'd just label him as one of those guys and that wasn't what Zhaoming wanted.

Guan Xin always used the commuter car to get to work. That was her routine. Zhaoming had no openings to grab on! If she used a public bus or a taxi, for example, he'd still be able to encounter her by chance… But a commuter car! He wasn't a staff member of the hospital, so he wouldn't be able to get on at all.

It troubled him indeed. He called himself the master seducer, but it'd been four days and he hadn't even interacted with the target yet!

But just as he started getting impatient, Guan Xin appeared! She left her house and she wasn't heading to work. It was a Sat.u.r.day and she had the day off! Upon exiting her house she got on a bus and headed to the Schola.r.s.ea Bookshop!

Zhaoming felt that his chance was coming. Thus, he got a cab and followed her all the way to the bookshop. He tailed her into the medicine section before starting his plan on how he would approach her.

Naturally, Guan Xin never knew that there was someone following her. She wasn't versed in espionage or anything like that, after all. She wouldn't be able to notice.

She came here today to get some books to prepare for her exam on Eastern-Western medicine. Her major was nursing when she was in school, but she did study up on the Eastern-Western medicine profession as well due to the fact that her own grandfather was an exceptional Easter doctor. She'd picked the minor so that her grandpa wouldn't be disappointed.

But she felt that she wasn't suited for that profession after she graduated. Thus, she opted to become a nurse instead. It disappointed Xuemin, but he didn't say anything. After all, she was a girl, and he never placed much hope in her, to begin with.
