Chapter 141 - Supporting Jing Qian
Zhan Yihe saw her chance and immediately grabbed the bottle, trying to find a label on it. As soon as she was done, she threw the porcelain bottle on a nearby table. The bottle did not break, but the cap came undone and three pills rolled out of the bottle.
The pills that she had created for over two hours had been just thrown onto the table so casually. No one from the Tang Sect would have the balls to do so.
However, this bottle was thrown by someone from a branch of the Zhan family.
Jing Qian’s face immediately turned dark.
As for Jiang Yuxi, she did not get the cold, chilling aura that was coming from Jing Qian. Instead, she started screaming, “What?! You wanted to give Brother Chuan uncertified products?!”
Zhan Yuheng, who was there, noticed that something wasn’t right, but just when he was about to step in for Zhan Yihe, Zhan Shuyu had already spoken up instead.
“Yihe, you’ve been extremely rude! Ignoring whether Ah Chuan will be taking it or not, it is still Jing Qian’s hard work. You can’t just throw it away!”
Zhan Shuyu walked over to the table and picked up the porcelain bottle. Just when she was closing the cap, she scented the calming smell that came from the pills.
Zhan Shuyu’s eyes widened and she immediately fanned it with her hands in order to get more of the scent from the bottle.
She was the Deputy Director of Chuantou Medical Institute, the Director of the Zhan family’s investment in the medical field, and she was also a professor in medicine.
Although she wasn’t as great as the mad Zhan Lichuan, who had completed his doctorate with double degrees in his 20’s, she had also completed medical school at Harvard at the age of 25, which was an extraordinary achievement on its own.
Since Chuantou Medical Institute was extremely famous in Country Z, she was also someone who was exposed to a lot of different matters, which was why she knew that this scent was something out of ordinary.
However, before Zhan Shuyu could say anything, Master Zhan had already spoken.
“Your second sister is right. This was Qianqian’s effort. She was occupied with it from 11 till 2 in the morning. Whether or not these pills will help Ah Chuan, you shouldn’t have done this.”
Since Jing Qian was the woman whom the Zhan family had bought with a huge amount of fortune in order to bring luck into their family, along with the fact that Jing Qian had once saved Zhan Lichuan’s life, why would Master Zhan allow their lucky mascot to be insulted this way?
Plus, Master Zhan did not miss the reaction on Zhan Shuyu’s face when she touched the pills, which was why he immediately stood up for his granddaughter-in-law.
Zhan Yihe was close with Jiang Yuxi. Therefore, when she saw Jiang Yuxi being bullied, she decided to help her.
Since Jiang Yuxi was also an adopted granddaughter of the Zhan family, they were treated almost the same; as Zhan Yihe was also considered as the biological granddaughter of the Zhan family.
Who would have thought that by helping Jiang Yuxi, she would get lectured by Zhan Shuyu, and even her granduncle?!
Zhan Renmian kept quiet ever since Jing Qian arrived, even when his own granddaughter was being bullied.
However, he suddenly spoke up.
“Oh, so this is Ah Chuan’s wife?! I wouldn’t have known if you hadn’t told me.”
Two of Zhan Renmian’s sons stood up as well with surprised looks on their faces, “Huh? This is Ah Chuan’s wife?”
“Oh? I thought that she was just a friend.”
Zhan Renmian continued acting dumb and started complimenting Jing Qian.
“Big brother, did you find Ah Chuan’s wife with a microscope? She is such a beauty. It is extremely difficult to find such beauties these days!”
Then, a man that looked similar to Zhan Renmian spoke up, “Yihe, this is your sister-in-law! Why were you helping an outsider instead?”
Jiang Yuxi was completely dumbfounded.
