Chapter: 627
Ye Chen said, "That's right, keeping Xiao Lin Jr. alive for future use; who knows when we might need him to help us get ahold of Xiao Lin Pharmaceuticals and kill two birds with one stone."
Then, Ye Chen added, "Besides, don't worry about any moral principles in this matter; after all, we have no morals to speak of compared to the Japanese, so the more brutal, the better."
"Ah, I understand now!" Mr. Hong exclaimed hurriedly. "Don't worry, I'll arrange for more people to be involved and make sure Xiao Lin Jr. is well-protected!"
.....
At this moment, it's Song Manor.
The entire Song family was gathered in the dining room, discussing the matters of Xiao Lin Pharmaceuticals.
Song Old Master spoke up after seeing the news about Xiao Lin Pharmaceuticals, saying, "I always have a feeling that this thing with Xiao Lin Pharmaceuticals has something to do with Ye Chen."
Just as Song Wen-ting was about to pick up another piece of western flower, she suddenly stopped and quietly placed it in her bowl without eating or speaking.
Next to her, her cousin Song Rong-huo spoke up, saying, "Grandfather, I also have this feeling. I heard that Xiao Lin Jr., the one from Xiao Lin Pharmaceuticals, had taken a special medicine that first cured his paralysis before suddenly dying. And I also heard that Xiao Lin Jr. had sought treatment for hemiplegia at the Jinling Medical Exhibition, and it's possible that Shen Shen-yi used the same medicine to treat you."
Song Old Master immediately said, "Rong-huo, don't directly address Ye Chen's honorifics!"
Rong-huo quickly changed his tone, saying, "I apologize, Grandfather. I just feel that Shen Shen-yi used a medicine similar to the one given by Ye Chen to you."
Song Old Master nodded approvingly at Rong-huo's change in tone and demeanor, sighing, "I also think so. Shen Tian-qi's medical skills are indeed impressive, but they're not quite as miraculous as those of Ye Chen."
As he was speaking, Song Old Master couldn't help but sigh and say, "The medicine given by Ye Chen last time was indeed very effective. I had already been at death's door before that, but after taking it, I felt my body become robust and strong. However, perhaps the illness was too severe earlier on, so even though there is no longer a threat to my life, my physical condition has still not fully recovered...".
Rong-huo quickly chimed in, saying, "Grandfather, why don't I go find Ye Chen for you? I'll ask him for a divine pill or buy one from him. If you take another of these pills, your physical condition will definitely improve significantly!"
Song Old Master hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "Absolutely not! The medicine given by Ye Chen has already done so much for the Song family. We haven't even had a chance to properly reciprocate this kindness. To suddenly go ask for more would show that we're greedy and lack self-awareness."
Rong-huo didn't quite understand his grandfather's reverence for Ye Chen.
Song Old Master regarded Ye Chen as divine, with reasons similar to those of Shen Tian-qi. Both of them were already old men in their twilight years, who knew the heavens' will and feared it. In essence, they were afraid of death.
However, Rong-huo was still under thirty this year, so if someone told him that he could add five more years to his life, he would probably not take it seriously. But for an old man approaching the end of his life, if someone could let him live five more years, that would be his greatest god, comparable to a living Buddha.
Shen Shen-yi was somewhat able to understand her grandfather's thoughts, as she too had received a divine pill from Ye Chen and kept it in her car. Only she and Ye Chen knew about it.
With this medicine, Shen Shen-yi felt an unprecedented sense of peace, knowing that if anything happened to her, she would have the chance to turn the tide with this medicine.
This kind of opportunity, just mentioning it to someone else, no one would think it's extraordinary, that's because they know such an opportunity couldn't possibly have any connection to themselves.
Song Rong-huo is the same.
He knows Ye Chen's divine pill is precious and can't be taken for granted. If he could get his hands on one, he would definitely use it to curry favor with the old man and then try to get the old man to look at him more favorably, so that he might inherit more assets from Song family in the future. He won't be like Song Wan-ting, keeping the pill for himself.
It's not that Song Wan-ting doesn't filial to the old man; it's just that she feels this pill represents Ye Chen's concern for her.
Ye Chen must have hoped that he would keep this pill with him, so she didn't want to disappoint Ye Chen's hope or use the gifts from Ye Chen to seek praise from her grandfather. JrNovels.com
