Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Lu Ming Corporation is really scheming. They actually used an old man over 70 years old as a shield! This way, even if we make a move, they will have a reason to stand on the moral high ground and blame us! Tsk, no wonder the Internet says that Lu Ming Corporation is scheming!”

“Old man, I advise you to resign quickly, lest we accidentally injure you! You’re already so old, why do you have to get involved in young people’s matters? Even if you don’t think for yourself, you have to think for your family, right? It’s not easy to live for so long!”

“So aren’t you going to explain what Lu Ming Corporation’s actions represent? You’re in such a hurry to come out and can’t wait to announce it to the world. Moreover, the rumors on the Internet have just spread on a small scale. This makes us wonder if you have a guilty conscience!”

“That’s right! If Lu Ming Corporation really didn’t do anything, then Mr. Lu can come out and clarify. I think you guys are just relying on the fact that we don’t understand these professional terms to spout nonsense, right? We’re not people who can be bullied. If you can’t give us a reason that’s enough to convince us today, don’t blame us for being rude!”

…

The old man placed his hands behind his back and looked at the scene without any ripples in his heart. He had already expected this when he took the initiative to take on this job. However, everything had to be done step by step. There was still a long way to go! He sighed. Even though he comforted himself like this, he could not help but complain. Young people nowadays were too difficult to serve, right?

If they didn’t stand up now and let the rumors spread on the Internet, it would be too late for them to settle the score. It was inevitable that the Lu Ming Corporation’s reputation would be damaged. At least, they could salvage some losses if they stood up now. But now, they were being called hypocritical by someone.

What did these people want? Wasn’t it just to make things difficult for people?

Chu Jinyu, who was in the tall building, could not help but feel her heart clench when she saw this scene. She had always respected her elders. Even if that old doctor was not related to her by blood, she did not want to see him being scolded by young people for no reason!

She frowned and said, “Can Old Ji really do it? Who sent him over? Didn’t they say that they were looking for a few strong young people? If he was besieged by the crowd below, won’t it be a loss to the medical world? These people don’t know his true identity at a glance.”

Mr. Ji had been in the industry for 50 to 60 years and was considered a famous figure in the circle. He had spent a lot of effort to get him to join his hospital. His contributions were countless, and it was needless to say how many lives he had saved! It would be unthinkable if an ‘accident’ happened to him in such a situation!

At the thought of this, she turned around and wanted to bring him back. Who would have thought that in the next second, Lu Ming would hug her with one arm! A faint blush quickly crept up her cheeks. She blinked a few times in a daze, clearly still in a daze. Then she asked blankly, “W-What’s wrong?”

A low, magnetic laugh sounded in her ears. “He came forward of his own accord, and we thought about it before agreeing. Old Ji is not as fragile as you think. With his professional knowledge and brain, I think he will definitely not disappoint us.”

Of his own accord?

Chu Jinyu looked at the lively crowd below in shock and said, “But their emotions are unstable now. Who knows what they will do under impulse! Why don’t we go to a safe place to carry out scientific activities? No matter how powerful Old Ji is, he can’t escape unscathed under the siege of so many people, right?”

“Don’t worry. Since the stage is already set up, there’s no reason to give up.”

Lu Ming said with a smile. He knew what his wife was worried about. She was just afraid that Old Ji would be beaten up. He was already prepared. What happened next would depend on the other party’s actions!

Not far away, Old Ji did not panic at all. He cleared his throat, and the other two doctors silently stood around him to prevent any trampling and crowding. “Everyone, don’t worry. Conspiracy theories don’t exist. Our Lu Ming Corporation still wants to develop well in the country.

“Besides, I’m sure that the test report is definitely from an official organization. The higher-ups are watching it personally. Who would dare to tamper with it? Therefore, you don’t have to resist so much!

“I know that even if I talk my way out of this, there are still people who don’t believe me! Therefore… They think that I’m making things up. They can go to the officials to investigate at any time. I don’t think they’ll withhold the truth from you! Moreover, I only want you to know that This Place No. 3 can stand up to scrutiny!”

He picked up the cold water on the small table and took a few sips. Then he said, “Now that the epidemic is getting stronger, I think everyone here wants to live longer, right? If you don’t have any other questions, then I’m asking you as a doctor—go buy This Place No. 3!”

Such sincere words and expressions made the originally restless crowd quieten down immediately. It was as if it was really as he said and he just wanted them to survive. This made their originally rebellious hearts waver. The middle-aged man who had spoken earlier saw that the situation was about to change and immediately said, “Oh, you’re starting to play the emotional card? You’re just using such a despicable trick. Looks like this old doctor isn’t as clean as you say! How much did the Lu Ming Corporation pay you to protect their medicine? Does whoever pays more make you turn black into white? Stop joking! Do you think we commoners are fools?!”

It seemed quite likely. After all, capitalists were demons who ate people without blinking. How good could their subordinates be?

When the middle-aged man saw their hesitation, he revealed a smug smile. If he had to blame someone, he could only blame the Lu Ming Corporation for being too outstanding. Who asked Lu Ming to make so many enemies? He was just being paid to do things. When Lu Ming Corporation was about to do this, he had already received the news and rushed over.

And today, his mission was to prevent Lu Ming Corporation from proceeding with this show! It would be even better if he could completely blame the other party for the fake medicine! Thinking about it this way, he was doing a good deed and helping other companies rise! Those people must be very jealous of Lu Ming in secret, right? They would probably wake up from their dreams laughing for having a helper like him for free!
