Chapter 1205: Chapter 1204 She’s Anxious, She’s Anxious, She Dug a Hole for Herself
Lu Mian temporarily put this matter aside and turned to talk about the LA Special Efficacy Drug.
Upon hearing this, Tang Wenhui’s eyes lit up.
There, concealed, was an imminent greed and calculation.
Lu Mian was well aware of this, which is why she intentionally spoke slowly.
“Mrs. Ye, the sudden mention of the past was mainly to give the public an explanation. Our team has decided to credit the LA Special Efficacy Drug under Dean Ling Ze’s name. You and the Ye Family Head are the appointed leaders, and we hope you both can be witnesses.”
Lu Mian’s tone was light and floating.
The ballpoint pen in her hand spun continuously between her fingers, never stopping.
Tang Wenhui narrowed her eyes immediately, hiding the fracture beneath them.
If she understood correctly, Lu Mian intended to credit all the success of developing the LA Special Efficacy Drug to Ling Ze?
Is that the intention?
“???”
Tang Wenhui looked utterly confused, almost laughing angrily.
She shot a questioning glance at the others opposite her.
As if to say: Why give such a major achievement to a dead person? Does it make sense? I’m supposed to be a witness too?
If you don’t know who to credit, isn’t crediting me a good choice?
The face she tried hard to maintain as aloof and strong seemed to be slowly cracking.
Dr. Hua smiled, thinking that indeed Tang Wenhui was provoked.
Provoked people are more likely to lose their words, revealing true feelings.
He added fuel as he explained: “The LA Special Efficacy Drug comprises two core components, one being the cell purification element researched by Dean Ling Ze before his passing, and the other the cell repair factor developed by Miss Lu. Miss Lu is not concerned about fame and voluntarily gave it up.”
During the initial naming, Lu Mian had already suggested crediting the main achievements to Ling Ze.
The people involved in the development had little contribution to the core components and all supported Lu Mian’s decision.
Yet, Tang Wenhui, an outsider, was the one showing absolute rejection.
How she found the audacity is unknown…
Tang Wenhui’s eyes were fierce, and she looked indignant, unable to understand these people.
She led her team through hardship and took significant risks in surgeries to become a name in the annals of medical history, to be renowned worldwide.
But what about these people, holding such valuable cards yet giving them away, are they crazy?
They even want her, a loser, to witness for a dead person!
She couldn’t bear such a huge contrast and disparity.
“Ya Ling, Lu Mian.”
Tang Wenhui took a deep breath, adopting a negotiating posture: “I won’t beat around the bush, if you don’t need this honor, then credit the LA Special Efficacy Drug to my name.”
Lu Mian and Xiao Qimo exchanged glances, their eyes sharing a disdainful gaze.
It was clear that Tang Wenhui was anxious.
She was anxious and began digging herself a hole.
Ya Ling shrugged incredulously: “My brother Mian crucially saved the patient’s life, reducing your guilt, and instead of being grateful to her, you want to seize the research results? Did you forget how you belittled, scorned my brother Mian before? If the drug’s successful surgery hadn’t diverted some attention from you, you’d be on legal channels now!”
Tang Wenhui’s face was flushed.
Her medical skills couldn’t compare even to an outsider like Lu Mian, which was a real defeat.
“Forget Hen Tao. The key now is Ling Ze is dead, and Lu Mian doesn’t need the honor, why not maximize the benefits? Ya Ling, you’re destined to become part of the Ye Family, think about your position.”
Tang Wenhui glanced around, there were no outsiders here, so she didn’t bother hiding her intentions.
“Ya Ling, I’m sorry about your father, powerless to reverse fate. But the Ye Family needs development and these accomplishments, if you wish to marry Jinwen, I hope you make the right choice. I promise you, after this matter settles, I’ll organize a grand wedding for you and Jinwen.”
Tang Wenhui had just gone through a failed surgery, journalists had interviewed her, announcements made externally, she really didn’t know how to end it.
But isn’t this an opportunity right now?
If she tells the public she developed the LA Special Efficacy Drug, the matter of Hen Tao’s critical condition could easily be covered up.
She provided a satisfactory answer to outside reporters, the masses, and even the upper echelons of Z Country.
Since Lu Mian doesn’t care about honor, she should know what to do for the sake of Ya Ling and Ye Jinwen’s marriage!
Tang Wenhui felt she grasped their weak point, coldly laughed as she awaited Lu Mian and Ya Ling’s response.
Two choices.
Either credit the LA Special Efficacy Drug to her name, or Ya Ling and Ye Jinwen can forget about getting married.
Ya Ling looked up, gazing solemnly at Ye Qingsui, “Ye Family Head, is that what you think too?”
Ye Qingsui paused, his cheek muscles moved a bit, and he made up his mind.
“Xi Xi, we’re all family. The Ye Family’s honor is yours too, what belongs to us as a couple will be yours eventually, you really don’t need to stress over these…”
Ye Zhongjing, the only clear-headed person in the Ye Family present, was furious, his face darkening.
“Absurd! Absurd!”
The old man banged on the table repeatedly, “You’ve lost your minds! You blatantly rob! When Ling Ze was alive, you didn’t save him first thing. Now that he’s passed, you still want to steal his research results. You use two kids’ marriage as a threat, despicable and hateful!”
Tang Wenhui got anxious, “Dad, if we don’t do this, the Ye Family will collapse!”
——
Outside the conference room.
Ye Jinwen heard his parents’ words, feeling completely rigid.
His complexion went pale, his face paper-white, and his entire body was filled with bone-chilling cold.
Because of this blood relationship, he didn’t want to delve into the mistakes his parents made, just keeping distance was enough.
He thought the kidnapping was the worst they had done.
But to his surprise…
Ya Ling’s parents’ deaths were also related to them.
Now, they’re trying to snatch research results from Ya Ling and Lu Mian.
Using his marriage as a threat.
They’re educated people, never uttering a profanity.
Yet it sounds so disgusting.
If he hadn’t heard his parents’ words personally, he’d never believe such greedy words came from their mouths.
Disillusionment.
The two great mountains in his heart crumbled instantly.
Beside him, Ma Qing and the others looked disdainful too.
They whispered among themselves.
“I used to think Dr. Tang was quite upright, stern in person, meticulous in work, never thought she’s such a person!”
“My god, if I hadn’t heard it in person, I wouldn’t believe it at all…”
“Such people don’t deserve to be doctors saving lives! They must be exposed!”
The three discussed among themselves, noticing Ye Jinwen with pursed lips not speaking, and nudged him.
“Bro, what’s wrong with you? Don’t stray off your principles, join us and curse them!”
Ye Jinwen: …
