Chapter 184: Gathering

Xiao Lu immediately clutched her phone and rubbed her eyes as she came back to her senses.

Everyone was spamming comments, wondering whether Yan Zijing had really been infected.

For a time, Xiao Lu wasn’t able to see the scene as too many comments were flooding it. Only after she closed the bullet screen function was she able to see what was happening.

...

Yan Zijing was lying on her bed.

Because Yan Zihao had just been cremated, Yan Zijing suffered from insomnia and was only able to fall asleep in the wee hours.

But then, her coughing grew more and more intense, and it caused her to flip her body. Only then did she realize what was happening. She then opened her eyes and took her phone.

When she saw the comments on the bullet screen, she yawned and spoke.

“I wasn’t the one coughing. That was my mother. Let me go check on her.”

Because she was streaming, she had to wear clothes when sleeping during these few days. When she walked out of the door, she saw Madam Yan coughing intensely outside.

Madam Yan bent over and seemed unable to catch her breath.

However, she waved her hands and said, “I’m fine, I just caught the flu.”

After she finished coughing, she lifted her head and her eyes were extremely swollen. Her face was also very pale. Upon seeing this, Yan Zijing’s eyes immediately turned red. “I understand…elder brother has left us, so we are all very sad…”

She then spoke to the audience, “My mother caught the flu quite early on. She will be eating flu medicine later.”

Glancing at the bullet screen, she said, “Infected? That’s impossible, I was the one who came in contact with my brother’s corpse last night and not my mother! I don’t feel uncomfortable in any way at all!”

After Yan Zijing finished speaking, Madam Yan who was at the side started coughing intensely once more.

It was unknown why, but Yan Zijing suddenly felt her throat becoming a little itchy.

This must be a psychological effect.

Yan Zijing twitched her lips and drank two mouthfuls of water to suppress the itch. She then continued, “Chu Corporation, didn’t you say that one would show symptoms the second day after being infected? Why am I still fine? Where’s the transmissible disease?”

A look of anger and mockery appeared on her face, and her eyes turned even redder. “I want my brother’s killer to pay with his life!”

This scene was screenshotted by many people and was instantly posted online.

Although no great online personalities helped them, everyone began to target the Chu Corporation respectively.

#KillerGoingScotfree#, #ChuCorporation’sFaceSmacked#, #WhereIsTheVirus#, and all sorts of taglines were instantly trending, causing everyone in the country to direct their anger to the Chu Corporation.

Everyone circulated this automatically.

The reporter Xiao Lu directly wrote an article about this and posted it. The content was roughly saying that this entire farce was a lie cooked up by the Chu Corporation. The tone of the article was filled with mockery.

She was very angry, extremely angry.

As a newbie who had just joined the industry, her sense of justice was off the charts. She wanted to report all sorts of injustice in her articles.

Although she didn’t like Yan Zijing due to the fake singing incident, that matter was merely immoral but not against the law. On the other hand, what the Chu Corporation was doing now was treading on the bottom line of the law!

(The rich are cruel and capricious, doing whatever they want to. They are scum.) All sorts of unpleasant words and scoldings were spammed.

Some of them even cursed the entire Chu Family to die, etc.

The matter reached an unprecedented amount of popularity for a time. In fact, some groups of people were starting to protest outside the Chu Corporation.

Also, Yan Zijing’s irrational fans used paint to write on the Chu Corporation’s door. They wrote “Cruel and evil.”

After knowing about this, Chu Cichen decisively gave everyone in his company a three days break. He didn’t want his employees’ safety to be threatened by irrational people.

Meanwhile, outside the Chu Corporation’s hospital, there were no longer people queueing to buy the heat dispersal pills.

Even for Dongye Pharmacy, because they released news of having heat dispersal pills yesterday, they were now being targeted by everyone and were implicated as they also went on trending – the Dongye Pharmaceutical Company is in cahoots with the Chu Corporation.

For a time, the sales of Dongye Pharmaceutical Company dwindled.

Chu Yuan directly looked for Li Yedong, the boss of Dongye Pharmaceutical Company, to apologize. “Brother Dong, how about this? I’ll buy back the pills that can’t be sold. 50,000 pills don’t really cost much.”

Li Dongye sighed. “I’ve bought them and I don’t lack this little bit of money. However, the crisis your Chu Corporation is facing this time around is indeed a little heavy.”

Chu Yuan also sighed deeply. Last night, he couldn’t sleep at all, so his eye bags were very heavy, and one could even see blood traces in his eyes. “I went to check the company’s account yesterday and discovered that Cichen had actually transferred all of the liquid funds to the industrial park. We have no money in our accounts now. It is also the month’s end, and we have to pay our employees. I’m worried that we won’t be able to do so.”

When Li Dongye saw Chu Yuan’s appearance, he patted his shoulders. “Although the heat dispersal pills can’t be sold, didn’t you guys manufacture other types of medicine?”

Chu Yuan glanced at him. “Yeah, we have many types of medicine stored in the warehouse. But sadly, no pharmacies are willing to work with us, and our Chu Corporation’s hospital is being held in disdain by everyone…We aren’t able to sell the medicine, and once they are past their expiry dates, they will be useless.”

Li Dongye spoke, “How about this? Tomorrow is the time for the monthly gathering of pharmaceutical companies. I’ll bring you there!”

Chu Yuan’s eyes brightened!

If it was in the past, he basically wouldn’t give a damn about a gathering of this level.

How could operating a pharmacy earn more than being in the property business?

But after the Chu Corporation’s share price dwindled and the liquidity of the Chu Corporation was wiped out, in addition to the accumulation of medicinal pills, Chu Yuan really had to sell the pills. If he could cooperate with the various large pharmacies and sell their stored medicine, he would gain some liquidity. At the very least, he would be able to pay his employees!

He wanted to go and cherished this opportunity very much.

However, no one had sent him an invitation!

Now that Li Dongye said this, Chu Yuan had a look of excitement on his face. He grabbed Li Dongye’s hand. “Those people who used to fawn on me have all disappeared. But not you. I’ll forever remember Brother Li’s friendship in my heart!”

At the same time, at the Chu Manor.

Fang Panxia came for a visit again.

She had originally thought that Chu Cichen wouldn’t meet her, but who would have expected that after the butler reported her arrival, Chu Cichen actually asked her to enter?

Fang Panxia then went to the study. She lowered her head and said, “Bro Chen, now that things have developed to such a stage, I feel that it is time for someone to stand out.”

Chu Cichen’s deep gaze stared at her. “Stand out to do what?”

“Stand out to apologize to everyone! Bro Chen, we have to calm the anger of the masses before we can continue on our path in the pharmaceutical industry. I can represent the Chu Corporation and say that the transmissible disease is a rumor we spread and that it is solely my fault and has nothing to do with the Chu Corporation. I won’t let Miss Shen’s reputation be damaged because she made the wrong diagnosis.”

Fang Panxia revealed a righteous expression.

Chu Cichen counter-asked, “Wrong diagnosis?”

Fang Panxia sighed. “Miss Shen is a traditional chinese medicine practitioner, so it is normal if she made a mistake in diagnosis. But she only did this so Young Master Cimo could get off the hook, so please don’t blame her.”

Chu Cichen lifted his head, revealing his immeasurably deep gaze as he made a decision in his heart.

Chu Cichen always treated his subordinates very well.

Lu Cheng also frequently made mistakes, but Chu Cichen didn’t really pursue them.

Now, he wanted to give Fang Panxia a chance. But sadly, she didn’t grab it.

Chu Cichen lowered her head and said, “No need.”

Hearing this, Fang Panxia suddenly felt an unknown sense of unease. It was as though Bro Chen was going to abandon her.

She bit her lips and hurriedly continued, “Bro Chen, the Sea City’s pharmacies are having a gathering tomorrow. I’ll think of a way to sneak in and help boost the reputation of our factory.”

Chu Cichen’s attitude was cold. “Up to you.”

Fang Panxia was filled with trepidation as she left Chu Cichen’s study. Just when she went out, she saw Shen Ruojing enjoying her tea in the living lounge below.

She immediately felt a wave of anger.

The Chu Family’s predicament was caused by Shen Ruojing. Many people were working extra hard to salvage the situation because of her, yet she was actually so relaxed.

Fang Panxia walked toward Shen Ruojing and said, “Miss Shen, since you said that the transmissible disease is real, when will Yan Zijing show symptoms? The Chu Corporation has no more time left!”

Shen Ruojing lifted her head and looked at her. “The symptoms have appeared.”

After she heard this, Fang Panxia started.

She immediately turned Yan Zijing’s live stream on.

Yan Zijing was currently sitting on her sofa, and the sounds of coughing kept ringing out from the kitchen. After drinking water to suppress the itch in her throat, she steeled herself and spoke, “It is already afternoon, and 24 hours have passed since I came in contact with my brother’s corpse. However, I still feel nothing. Chu Corporation, I thought I was supposed to show symptoms by…”

Before she could complete her sentence, she failed to control the itch and started coughing.
