Chapter 430: Confession
“Overall, she’s just the quintessential rich lady.”
His description matched Tang Wenyi’s image completely. Although he didn’t say much, he hit the main point. This made Chu Jinyu’s tense nerves relax a little. She chuckled and said, “Look, I knew there was something wrong with her, right? With her personality, it’s impossible for her to do something good for no reason.”
A hint of seriousness flashed across Lu Ming’s eyes. He scratched the bridge of his nose helplessly. Mr. Gao, who was sitting opposite him, was speechless.
What are they trying to say?
The reason why he didn’t choose to reveal Tang Wenyi’s true identity in the simplest way was that he had been recuperating recently, so he didn’t know that the madam he mentioned was on television. Otherwise, he would definitely have recognized her the moment she appeared!
Lu Ming said, “So was the prescription of your medicine actually written by Tang Wenyi? As far as I know, she doesn’t know anything about medicine. Her family is in business, so don’t talk nonsense. Mr. Gao. I hope you can tell me if the medicine you’re making is real or fake.”
Initially, Mr. Gao wanted to fool around with them, but he did not expect them to know the identity of that Missy. Can it be that the two of them know each other? He lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought. If not for his wife being sick and needing a large sum of money, why would he take the risk of telling this to an outsider and being found out by his boss?
Moreover, Lu Ming was quite sincere. Even the bus fare, food, accommodation, and transportation were all taken care of by Lu Ming Corporation. His gaze wandered. Perhaps he was hesitating or silently resisting answering this question. After all, if others knew about this, the truth would be out that their company had been making fake medicine!
Then wouldn’t he lose his job?
This was because with his qualifications, he could not find a better job than the one he had at Xingwei Medical Group. His colleagues were all in the same situation. Otherwise, Xingwei would not have been able to produce fake medicine for so many years! He thought that he could escape from reality forever, but it seemed that he was too optimistic.
When Chu Jinyu saw that he did not answer for a long time, a look of disgust appeared in her eyes. She did not believe that these people did not know that this thing was harmful to the human body when they were making fake medicine! In order to protect their position, they chose to hurt others. If this was not selfishness, what was?! She knew that they had no choice, and she also knew that selfishness was deeply rooted in human nature.
But she could not understand!
“I think you might not be clear about one thing. The infectious disease has already spread! Our Lu Ming Corporation has produced the real medicine, but we didn’t pass the review. We suspect that Tang Wenyi is involved in this matter. Do you think this infectious disease will spread to you if there’s no real preventive medicine? It will implicate your family!”
She actually made up the first half of what she said because there was no evidence to prove that Tang Wenyi had really done so. However, the other party had already become the biggest winner in this chess game. This made her guess that Tang Wenyi actually knew a certain big shot, which was why she had such ability!
Lu Ming Corporation was developing very quickly. As long as one’s IQ was normal, one would not choose to offend them. There were probably only a few people who could do such a blatant thing. Tang Wenyi was among them! Mr. Gao snorted in his heart. She’s just relying on the Tang family’s influence to commit outrages. Sooner or later, she will destroy the Tang family!
Faced with the threat of life, Mr. Gao finally relented. He never dreamed that someone would actually make a real preventive medicine in a short period of time! Was it Lu Ming Corporation? No wonder people always had more praise than criticism for them. This was much better than their Xingwei Medicine!
“… It’s fake medicine.”
He took a deep breath and repeated as if he was cheering himself on, “Xingwei Pharmaceuticals never made real medicine. What they made previously was at most ineffective and would not harm the body. For the preventive medicine, there was no prescription. Also, the boss wanted to lower the budget. Initially, the research department made two sample drugs. One was harmless and the other was harmful but low-cost.
They didn’t intend to let the boss use the harmful medicine which is Xingwei Preventive Medicine that’s currently released on the market. However, they were employees hired by them. If the bosses found out about this, they wouldn’t be able to continue living in Shanghai! Therefore, they decided to take both sample medicines over. As long as the boss didn’t mention that harmful medicine, they wouldn’t say anything.”
It was very clear that in the end, they were still found out.
“I think if it weren’t for that Miss Tang, we might not have come to this!”
Mr. Gao bowed solemnly to the two of them and said, “I know this is wrong. I’m really sorry! I think no matter what I say, I can’t salvage your losses, right? But I have no choice. I’m just an ordinary person. I don’t have the means to resist.”
“So you know about it?”
Chu Jinyu muttered. What was the use of apologizing? Would the people who were hurt because of this get better? Before she came, she was already mentally prepared. However, after hearing the truth, she still couldn’t help but feel frustrated! This made her unable to let go no matter what. If those people who regarded the Xingwei Prevention Medicine as a life-saving medicine knew the truth, they would definitely collapse, right?
The effect of this medicine was worse than the cold medicine!
She clicked her tongue and looked at the time on her phone. When she saw the news that popped up, her expression immediately became serious. Her fingers suddenly swiped faster. Then she handed the screen to her husband. Lu Ming’s gaze turned cold instantly.
Mr. Gao looked at the sudden change in mood and asked in confusion, “May I know what happened?”
“Someone died.”
Chu Jinyu couldn’t help but break the news. Just from her tone, it was obvious that something was wrong. “The village chief of the Divine Medicine Village trusted the advertisement that claimed that the preventive medicine could strengthen the body, and he stopped breathing after he overdosed on it! Why do you look even more surprised than me? When you made this medicine, you should have known that someone would die!”
She clenched her fists. If not for her years of upbringing restraining her from hitting anyone, she would have beaten this person up! She could forgive him for making this medicine without knowing anything. The key was that these people also knew what they were doing and wanted to hide it! She didn’t know what to say!
“All of you… were the ones who killed him.”
Wasn’t that the truth?
As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Gao’s expression turned ugly. He knew that this medicine could not be taken. He knew that this medicine would harm people. However, after knowing that someone had really died, the fear and uneasiness in his heart surged. He said in denial, “No, no…”
