Chapter 157: 157: You reap what you sow
With that, the ID that was lit up before turned dark once again.
“Professor Qing, it looks like the other party doesn’t have any more pills left. Is there any other way we can delay the worsening of my brother’s condition?”
Professor Qing, President Wu, and the specialist from the hospital sat down together and started discussing their management plan right in front of Zhan Lichuan.
The conclusion was that since the pills were extremely useful, Zhan Lichuan should continue using them daily for a week. He will be carefully monitored to see if the pills would help with his condition. After a week, he would be taking one pill once every three days. With this, they would be able to stretch 12 pills across at least half a month.
With the additional 2 weeks earned from it, they would allow Zhan Lichuan’s condition to heal and slowly improve to a slightly more stabilized level. Then, they would decide whether they could do the surgery.
When the meeting was over, Professor Qing got a call from Hong Lu.
“WHAT?!”
Professor Qing’s eyes widened, and his phone almost fell to the ground. As he came back from the shock, he immediately asked, “Deputy Director, how are you now? Are you injured? … Alright, I’ll be there soon.”
“Is that Director Hong Lu? What’s wrong?” Zhan Shuyu noticed that something unusual had happened, quickly enquiring about the situation.
“Dong Yuetong is too much! Just because she didn’t get Big Boss’s shares, she had planned to kidnap Director Hong Lu and threaten her for the shares. If someone hadn’t rescued Director Hong Lu, she might still be held hostage at an abandoned factory in the suburbs of H City.”
“Such a thing happened?”
Zhan Shuyu quickly turned and looked at Master Zhan.
“Grandfather, Professor Hong is our guest, since we invited her here to help us, but because of Ah Chuan…”
Master Zhan quickly stopped Zhan Shuyu and said, “We have to take responsibility for what happened to Director Hong. Go along with Professor Qing and personally visit her, along with bringing her my apologies. We promise to do our best in complying with each and every command that Director Hong has when she’s in H City. Plus, add a few more men to ensure her safety.”
“Yes, Grandfather.”
As Professor Qing left, only President Wu remained in the room. Master Zhan then asked about Zhan Lichuan’s surgery. He wanted to know if they should pick Dong Yuetong or if they should get the Lawrence Institute to do so.
“Master Zhan, in my opinion, I would prefer the Lawrence Institute. They have an extremely well-built reputation and the doctors in the institute are incomparable to any doctors in this world. Plus, the Lawrence Institute was Saka’s property and their skills are definitely guaranteed. As for Dong Yuetong, she is her younger sister but not sure how much of Saka’s skills she inherited therefore I’m can’t give you an exact answer.
“However, if you can afford it, I would recommend getting both parties to be involved with the surgery.
“But if Director Hong was really held hostage by Dong Yuetong’s men, it is highly unlikely that they would agree to work together now.”
Master Zhan nodded his head. Getting both parties to work together was his aim initially, but based on what had happened tonight, it seemed to be impossible.
By the time they finished the meeting, it was already 3 in the morning. Master Zhan was elderly and staying up late was extremely draining for him, which was why he left after being convinced by Zhan Lichuan and Zhan Yuheng.
The only person left in the room was Jing Qian, while Butler Xu, Yun Zhou, and Zhe Yan stood outside the room.
When everyone left, Zhan Lichuan turned to Jing Qian.
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. Well, if it wasn’t because you gave me an additional 300 million, I wouldn’t have been able to afford the pills, which cost 200 million. Consider this a result of your kind act.
Zhan Lichuan couldn’t help but smile, “If that’s the case, does this mean that I should be doing more charity?”
