Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1873: Chapter 1809: Jumped Off the Building

”Yes, originally with your medication, the old master was getting better, but after this ordeal, he deteriorated again. Fortunately, you left the potion, which managed to control it.”

”What about that doctor?” Meng Xinian asked in a deep voice.

Chen Baoshen’s expression was not good.

Mentioning this matter, he recalled the situation that day, which truly made him uncomfortable. Just thinking about it these past few days sent chills through his entire body.

”When he was caught, he didn’t utter a single word of defense. Seizing a moment when no one was paying attention, he directly climbed over the railing on the third floor and jumped.”

”Jumped?”

Chiang Xiao’s voice tightened.

On hearing ”jumped,” she was reminded of the moment of her own fall.

That feeling, she never wanted to experience it again in this lifetime.

Meng Xinian also felt a jolt in his heart.

In his mind, the scene he hallucinated earlier emerged immediately, the other Chiang Xiao falling.

His face changed instantly as well.

”Yes, jumped from the third floor, landed in the courtyard, and died on the spot.”

Died on the spot...

So, it means that person went after the old master with the intent of certain death?

How terrifying must the power behind this be to drive someone to such a near-suicidal act? Was it temptation or coercion by power?

In such a hospital, they could manufacture an incident like this; the power of the people behind this made them all feel a heavy burden on their hearts.

”What about the Chief Alliance Officer?” Meng Xinian pondered further.

Wasn’t this also a provocation towards Li Hanzhong?

The number of people eying that position is surely not small.

”The Chief Alliance Officer acted quickly and immediately sent people to handle it. That’s why we were promptly transferred here. Additionally, this building is filled with people both openly and covertly. The Alliance Officer has probably been busy dealing with this matter these past few days.”

Investigating this is not so easy.

Having the nerve to provoke Li Hanzhong indicates that the opponent’s power is at least on par with him, and since Li Hanzhong is in the open and the opponent in the shadows, now that he is in this position, every move he makes is under public scrutiny, and he cannot afford the slightest misstep.

His opponent is very likely watching for him to make a mistake, to seize the chance to add insult to injury.

So, at this moment, Li Hanzhong must not be having an easy time either.

Chiang Xiao pressed her lips tightly, a glint of ferocity flashed in her eyes.

”Has my father’s whereabouts been exposed too?”

Her greatest worry was that those people had discovered Ah Liu and would again attempt to harm him.

Chen Baoshen shook his head and said, ”It seems not. Sixth Young Master over there is also under continuous 24-hour protection, and no abnormalities have been detected for the time being. Specifically, Xiao Chiang, you should find an opportunity to ask the Chief Alliance Officer and his wife, as I haven’t been involved in these matters. My focus has been on the old master’s health.”

If he hadn’t been constantly thinking about gathering useful information for Chiang Xiao, he wouldn’t have bothered with these affairs, nor would he remember them, as they weren’t within his scope of concern.

He was just a doctor.

”Thank you, Grandpa Chen.” Chiang Xiao understood Chen Baoshen’s intentions and sincerely thanked him.

”Thank you, what for, you silly girl.” Chen Baoshen shook his head, ”Wait for me a bit, I still have some matters to discuss with you.”

After thinking it over for several days, he still felt he must tell her about these matters, to avoid catching her completely off guard when the time comes.

What?

Principles, confidentiality?

What were those things?

All he knew was that he pitied this child and wanted to help her in any way he could.

These were matters closely connected to her; how could he not tell her?
