Chapter Six: Secretly Investigating the Poisonous Father and Unraveling His Conspiracy
After the turmoil at the birthday banquet subsided, everyone offered their congratulations. Chen Shanhe took the opportunity to discover that the strange illness of the Su family father and son concealed a huge secret.
With his keen mind, he saw through the villain's panic and loss of composure, and took the initiative to go upstairs to examine the patient and explore the true root of the strange illness that had plagued him for many years.
The pulse diagnosis and poison detection thoroughly uncovered the vicious conspiracy of secretly poisoning, exposing the true colors of the villains and tearing away their hypocritical facade.
First paragraph
The old man's back injury had healed, and he was in high spirits. The guests in the courtyard once again surrounded him to offer their birthday wishes and congratulations.
"Old Master Su is incredibly fortunate to have met such a miraculous doctor as Mr. Chen!"
"The Su family's hard times are finally over; the seafood factory will definitely be able to recover!"
Su Zhenshan held Chen Shanhe tightly, introducing him to everyone he met with a smile, his pride and joy impossible to hide.
"Butler, quickly bring Mr. Chen the best hot tea!"
"Bring over that plate of freshly cut seasonal fruit as well, so that the young friend can have a taste."
He treated Chen Shanhe with a level of warmth and closeness that surpassed even his own closest relatives.
Su Wanjing stood to the side, watching her grandfather's relaxed brows and eyes, and her heart, which had been hanging in suspense for a long time, finally settled down.
The warmth in her eyes as she looked at Chen Shanhe deepened, and her dependence could no longer be concealed.
If it weren't for the person in front of her, she would have already died from the deadly poison, and her grandfather is still struggling with the pain of his back injury.
Taking advantage of the lively atmosphere and relaxed atmosphere, Su Wanjing gently tugged at Chen Shanhe's sleeve.
She then moved closer to her grandfather, lowered her voice, and spoke with a mixture of anticipation and unspeakable sorrow.
"Grandpa, Shanhe's medical skills are so advanced, why don't we... let him go upstairs and take a look at my father as well?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Su Zhenshan's face vanished instantly, and his expression suddenly darkened.
His eyes reddened slightly, and a long sigh filled with the helplessness and heartache of passing years.
Su Mingyuan had been bedridden for many years, suffering from a strange illness, with blurred consciousness and weakness all over his body.
We visited all the major hospitals in the provincial capital and used all the sophisticated equipment, but we couldn't find the root cause at all, so we could only wait and see.
This is the deepest worry in the Su family's heart, and an unhealable pain in the old man's soul.
The old man nodded slowly, about to agree, when the three members of the Wu family standing beside him suddenly changed their expressions.
Wu Yanqiu's pupils suddenly contracted, his heart sank, and his facial muscles instantly stiffened.
Panic welled up in his eyes, and a cold sweat instantly seeped out from his back.
Second paragraph
Chen Shanhe, with his keen mind, immediately noticed Wu Yanchou's loss of composure and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
He immediately followed Su Wanjing's words and took the initiative to speak, his tone calm and confident.
"Grandpa, Wanjing, I had the same idea."
"Director Su's illness has dragged on for many years, and the symptoms are strange, which cannot be explained by ordinary chronic diseases."
"I will go upstairs and carefully examine your pulse. Perhaps I can find the root cause of the illness that others cannot see."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Wu Yanqiu strode forward, sternly stopping him, his tone so urgent it was almost irrational.
"No! Absolutely not!"
"We've seen all the top experts in the provincial capital for Brother Su's illness, and we've used all sorts of sophisticated instruments, but they're all helpless. All we can do is let him rest and recuperate."
"Chen Shanhe, don't waste your time. What if you upset the patient and something else happens? Can you take responsibility for that?"
Wu Xinggui followed closely behind, waving his hand impatiently, his eyes darting away, not daring to look directly into the eyes of the crowd.
"That's right, my dad's right, that disease is incurable. Don't cause trouble and spoil everyone's fun!"
Li Juan echoed her sentiments closely, being extremely careful not to displease the Wu family and ruin her good life.
"Yeah, even the experts can't cure this disease. You're just a country bumpkin, so don't try to be a hero."
The three of them sang in unison, their obstruction extremely fierce, as if their deepest secrets were about to be exposed in public.
This unusual behavior even alerted the unsuspecting guests, who began whispering amongst themselves.
The gazes directed at the Wu family gradually became more suspicious and strange.
Paragraph
Having weathered eighty years of life's storms and witnessed the vicissitudes of life, Su Zhenshan immediately became suspicious upon seeing Wu Yanchou's flustered and disoriented appearance.
Back then, my son was strong and healthy, and he was in charge of the seafood factory. He suddenly fell ill without any warning.
Subsequently, the factory fell into the wrong hands, and Wu Yanqiu seized power, gradually encroaching on the Su family's assets.
There were already many doubts, but due to the lack of evidence over the years, we could only put it aside for the time being.
The old man's gaze turned cold, his tone carrying a chilling accusation: "Wu Yanchou, I, as his father, am not even worried about my son's illness, yet you seem to care more than we do?"
One sentence left Wu Yanchou speechless, his face turning ashen. He stammered, his eyes darting around, unable to utter a coherent sentence for a long time.
Chen Shanhe ignored the Wu family's unreasonable obstruction, a confident smile playing on his lips, and strode straight upstairs.
Su Wanjing quickly stepped forward to lead the way, gently pushing open the door. A heavy, medicinal smell mixed with a faint fishy odor wafted out.
Su Mingyuan lay on the bed, his face sallow and his hair black, his eyes unfocused and lifeless, and his limbs stiff and atrophied.
She was barely clinging to life, looking so pitiful that it broke one's heart.
Chen Shanhe walked to the bedside, gently placed his hand on the patient's wrist to check for pulse, closed his eyes and concentrated, and used his ancestral medical and martial arts techniques to carefully examine the patient.
A moment later, he withdrew his hand, his brows furrowed, and his eyes suddenly turned icy and serious.
He already knew in his heart that this was by no means an intractable disease, but rather the result of a long-term accumulation of poison that had invaded his internal organs and bone marrow.
If this is delayed any longer, even a divine being would be powerless to reverse the situation.
fourth paragraph
Chen Shanhe turned around, his cold gaze sweeping over Wu Yanchou, who was trembling at the door. His voice was clear and resonant, echoing throughout the room and even reaching downstairs.
"I can tell you all clearly that Director Su is not ill, but has been secretly poisoned for a long time."
"This poison is the insidious poison of Prunella vulgaris, extracted from wild herbs. It is colorless and odorless, and it accumulates over time, penetrating the bone marrow to become what it is today."
One sentence caused a huge uproar!
A moment of deathly silence fell over the entire room, followed by a commotion as everyone was stunned by this shocking truth.
"It's a slow-acting poison? No wonder the hospital couldn't find any cause for the illness!"
"The Wu family's desperate obstruction must stem from something they're hiding; it's most likely related to them!"
Wu Yanchou broke down on the spot, as if a sore spot had been hit, and roared sharply, his voice even changing tone.
"Nonsense! You're spouting baseless accusations, deliberately sowing discord and harming the Su family!"
Chen Shanhe smiled calmly, his tone sharp, each sentence hitting the nail on the head.
"General weakness, confusion, muscle atrophy, and dark complexion are all typical symptoms of Prunella vulgaris poisoning."
"The hospital can't detect it because they don't recognize the poison, not because there's no cure."
"Are you so agitated in your obstruction because you fear the conspiracy will be exposed, or because you fear I will publicly reveal the source of the poison?"
He turned to look at Su Zhenshan and Su Wanjing, his tone becoming more serious, carrying a solemn reminder.
"Not only Director Su, but you two also have trace amounts of this poison accumulated in your bodies, it's just that it hasn't manifested yet."
Upon hearing this, the Su family grandfather and grandson's expressions changed drastically, and everyone in the room gasped.
Wu Yanchou's malicious intentions were obvious; he wanted to wipe out three generations of the Su family and attempt to swallow up the entire aquatic product industry in one gulp.
Su Zhenshan was trembling with rage, pointing his finger at Wu Yanchou, so furious that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Su Wanjing's eyes were red and her whole body was trembling. The mystery that had been hidden for many years was finally revealed, and her hatred for the Wu family instantly reached its peak.
