Chapter 145: 145: Thrown Treasures
Master Zhan was stunned, quickly shaking hands with President Wu.
“Thank you so much for helping, President Wu. Please come inside, the weather is extremely cold out here.”
With Master Zhan leading the way, President Wu, along with Professor Qing, walked in with a warm smile on his face.
Seeing that both experts were ignoring him, Zhan Renmian felt embarra.s.sed.
Master Zhan brought both the experts to the highest floor in the hospital, everyone waiting outside Zhan Lichuan’s ward. The chairman of the hospital and the doctors that were in charge of Zhan Lichuan’s case were waiting for the two of them. As soon as they arrived, all of them greeted the experts with respect.
One of them briefly summarized Zhan Lichuan’s condition and said, “Although it is extremely common for quadriplegic patients to suffer from heart attacks, there is something peculiar about Third Young Master’s condition. His condition was spiraling downwards too quickly. If it wasn’t because they came in as soon as possible, his condition would have been worse.”
Professor Qing and President Wu were listening to the report as they walked into the room.
In order to get to his room, you would have to pa.s.s by the living room first, followed by the disinfection room.
Just as they pa.s.sed by the living room, headed towards the disinfection room, President Wu suddenly stopped.
“What’s wrong?”
When Professor Qing noticed that President Wu had stopped all of a sudden, he turned around, giving him a puzzled look.
President Wu took in a deep breath, his originally pale and tired face suddenly turned energetic. There was a gleaming look in his eyes, and he looked surprised.
“What’s that smell?”
The crowd all froze, except for Jiang Yuxi. She saw her opportunity and brought out some take-out before Master Zhan even had the chance to eat it.
“President Wu, are you feeling hungry? This is the supper that we have ordered specifically for you and Professor Qing. The both of you have traveled a long way and you must be tired. Why don’t you take a break and have some food before you head in?”
Jiang Yuxi thought that she was acting magnanimous and generous, but as soon as she spoke, Master Zhan’s face instantly turned dark.
Without mentioning the fact that the food was just take-out, and still in their packing boxes at that, it was extremely ill-mannered for them to offer food to their valuable guests in such a manner, even if it was untouched. Plus, with the situation ahead of them, was this the time for them to enjoy supper?
Plus, they were hired by the Zhan family, being paid a large amount of money for this, and they definitely weren’t here for the food!
Unfortunately, Jiang Yuxi did not see the look on Master Zhan’s face and immediately brought a bowl of porridge to them.
When Zhan Yihe noticed the situation, she elegantly walked over and presented a bowl of porridge to them too.
Since Jiang Yuxi had ordered so much food in order to satisfy everyone in the room, there were numerous bowls of porridge with different flavors as well as snacks.
However, Professor Wu walked past Jiang Yuxi, even ignoring Zhan Yihe as he excitedly walked to the direction where the smell was coming from.
Then, as he arrived at the table, he reached towards a small black pill that was on the table, taking in a deep breath.
The calming aroma that came from it entered through his nostrils and into his lungs. President Wu could clearly sense his breathing became much smoother because of this pill.
The effect it had was miraculous just due to inhaling it.
If it was eaten…
The effects would be unimaginable!
When they saw how Professor Qu picked up the pills that Zhan Yihe had thrown, everyone standing behind Zhan Renmian froze.
Seeing that this was obviously a pill that had been thrown away, Professor Qu got so angry that his face turned white and his voice trembled as he questioned, “Who is it? Who is the person dumb enough to throw away such precious treasure?”
When Master Zhan recalled Jing Qian saying that the pills were extremely precious, his scalp turned numb as he quickly walked over to Professor Qu.
