“Second Miss Lu, I’m telling the truth. You’re insisting that President Gu poisoned Old Master Lu, but do you have evidence?” The doctor’s tone was serious. As a doctor of the Medical Association, he was respected no matter where he went. He had never seen such an unreasonable person.

The doctor was already a little dissatisfied after being interrupted by Lu Xiang so many times. Now that Lu Xiang was slandering him for being bribed, he was naturally even angrier. He originally wanted to save the Lu family some dignity, but at this moment, he only wanted to make the truth public.

Lu Xiang’s expression was a little ugly. Was this doctor bribed to speak up for Gu Zheng?

Fifth Uncle could not help but panic. The Medical Association was not something the Lu family could offend. Previously, Lu Xiang’s interruptions had already made the other party unhappy, but she actually asked the other party to shut up. Was she crazy?

Fifth Uncle was silent for a moment before asking gently, “But the head of the family is sure that Gu Zheng poisoned him. Why do you think this has nothing to do with Gu Zheng?”

Lu Yan took a deep breath and said with a smile, “The two of you might not know yet, but Grandpa woke up once two days ago. For some reason, he fell into a coma again. Now that he’s awake, Grandpa is testifying that Gu Zheng poisoned him. Doesn’t this explain everything?”

The Medical Association had always been fair and would not be bribed by Gu Zheng. Hence, Lu Yan simply thought that the two doctors had been deceived by Gu Zheng and did not know about the grudge between the Lu family and Gu Zheng at all.

The old master had already testified in public. How could it be fake?

Just as Lu Yan was feeling proud, the doctor suddenly asked, “Young Master Lu, have you studied medicine?”

Lu Yan was stunned for a moment before answering truthfully, “No.”

“Then how did you confirm that Old Master Lu was poisoned? I don’t think anyone told you that Old Master Lu fainted because of poison.” The doctor’s face was serious.

Lu Yan’s heart trembled, but there was still a smile on his face as he explained, “Previously, we had already taken Grandpa to the hospital for a check-up. The results show that Grandpa was poisoned. If you don’t believe me, I can give you the medical records later—”

“I heard from the family doctor that the old master was indeed poisoned, but the poison was very mild. It might have come from something he ate. The poison is no longer in his body, and it won’t affect his body at all. The old master should have woken up a long time ago.”

The family doctor looked helpless. If Second Miss had not angered the people from the Medical Association, perhaps they could still cover up for the Lu family. However, she actually told this young doctor from the Medical Association to shut up. She now had to reap what she sowed!

Lu Xiang bit her lip tightly and said indignantly, “The family doctor also said that my father should have woken up a long time ago, but he only woke up for a moment and fell unconscious again without saying anything. Who else but Gu Zheng could do such a vicious thing?! You were clearly bribed by Gu Zheng!”

“Second Miss Lu, you’ve repeatedly emphasized that I was bribed. May I ask what evidence you have? The Medical Association has always been fair. You’re not only slandering my reputation but also the reputation of the entire Medical Association. I’ll represent the Medical Association to hold you responsible!”

Lu Xiang widened her eyes. The doctor in front of her looked to be in his 20s, but he actually spoke to her like this. She was instantly infuriated. She pointed at the doctor and shouted heart-wrenchingly, “Fair, my *ss! So what if you’re from the Medical Association? Gu Zheng is so rich. He must’ve given you money, so you’re now working for him—”

The doctor could not stand being slandered anymore and berated angrily, “Second Miss Lu! I didn’t say it directly before because I wanted to save your Lu family some dignity, but you’re actually slandering us like this and insisting on pushing the blame for Old Master Lu’s coma on Mr. Gu. Well, don’t blame me for this, then!”

Lu Yan suddenly had a bad feeling. What did this doctor mean? Could it be that the doctors knew something else?

“Xiao Zheng, pay attention to your identity.” At this moment, the doctor who looked to be in his 30s walked forward and stood in front of the young doctor.

Although he was only in his 30s, he was already an elder of the Medical Association. He exuded a dignified aura and said firmly, “The people of the Medical Association have always been fair. Second Miss Lu, if you don’t believe me, you can invite other doctors here. Even if Mr. Gu had bribed us, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to bribe anyone else.”

Lu Xiang hurriedly retorted, “How do you know that it wasn’t Gu Zheng who poisoned my father? He was unconscious for so long. It must be Gu Zheng’s doing! You’re just protecting him!”

The elder was not angry. His voice was still calm. “Second Miss Lu, don’t rush to a conclusion. There’s a reason why I’m sure this has nothing to do with Mr. Gu.”

Everyone immediately pricked up their ears. Lu Xiang could not help but take a few steps closer.
