Chapter 20 The Two Women's Unresolved Issues and Wu Family Madness
1. Gentle words to ease emotions, subtly laying the groundwork for defense
Seeing Su Wanjing's furrowed brows and unresolved worries in her eyes, Chen Shanhe took the initiative to walk to her side and speak softly.
"Right now, there are only two things on my mind."
"First, we should focus on curing your father's old illness so that he can live a peaceful life."
"Secondly, we must protect the mudflats around Shengui Temple, safeguard the water source of Hailuo Beach, and develop aquaculture."
"Qinglong Town is where I've built my foundation, and I won't leave it easily."
Su Wanjing slowly loosened her hands hanging at her sides, and her tense shoulders also relaxed slightly.
She looked up at Chen Shanhe, her voice still carrying a hint of unease.
"Miss Murong is from the provincial capital; she has extensive connections and a high standard of living."
"She came in person this time, paving the way for you and supporting you. She has a lot of good intentions towards you."
"Are you really not tempted at all, and don't you miss the platform in the provincial capital?"
Chen Shanhe turned to look at the eaves of the Divine Turtle Temple, his gaze steady and his tone unwavering.
"She can do her thing, I'll do mine."
"I will walk my own path step by step on this mudflat, without depending on anyone."
Su Wanjing nodded gently, her worries eased slightly.
But when he thought of Murong Fangxiang's demeanor and abilities, a faint worry still lingered in his eyes.
At the same time, Murong Fangxiang's car was driving away from Qinglong Town.
She sat in the car and gave orders to her subordinates in a deep voice.
"Leave two people behind to secretly stay in town and protect Chen Shanhe's safety around the clock."
"We will also leverage our connections in the province and city to contact the county's law enforcement and environmental protection departments."
"We will collect and secure all the evidence of the Wu family's previous crimes, such as dumping waste and destroying mudflats, and their deliberate creation of a car accident this time."
The subordinate bowed in response and immediately turned to make the arrangements.
Murong Fangxiang rolled down the car window and looked towards the mudflats next to the Divine Turtle Temple with a determined gaze.
She knew that once the evidence was in place, the Wu family would have nowhere to escape.
II. Desperate and mad, he plotted arson.
The news that Murong Fangxiang had used her connections in the province and city to investigate the Wu family quickly reached Wu Yanchou's ears.
He had just picked up his teacup when he heard his subordinate's report, and he abruptly flung his hand away.
The teacup slammed heavily to the ground, shattering porcelain and spilling tea everywhere.
Wu Yanchou stood in the center of the room, his face ashen, his chest heaving violently.
"It would have been fine if the car accident hadn't killed Chen Shanhe, but now it's attracted people from the province and city."
"The Murong family actually intervened personally, clearly intending to fight me to the death."
"Now I have no way out. Sooner or later they'll send me to jail."
Wu Xinggui stood in the corner, trembling all over, his voice trembling with sobs.
"Dad, things are getting too tense right now, should we run away?"
"If we stay in Qinglong Town any longer, we'll be arrested and imprisoned sooner or later."
Wu Yanchou turned his head sharply, his eyes now completely crazed.
He gritted his teeth and growled, his voice sounding like he wanted to devour someone.
"Run? Where to run?"
"You can run away, but you can't hide. Your family property and land are all here; where can you run to?"
"There's only one way now: either kill Chen Shanhe and cover everything up."
"Either I go to jail and never get out again."
He immediately ordered Wu Xinggui to gather all his trusted confidants.
Several people were gathered inside the room, with the doors and windows tightly closed.
Wu Yanchou lowered his voice as he laid out his insane plan.
"Everyone, bring gasoline to the area near the Tortoise Temple late tonight."
"A single fire burned the mudflat aquaculture area to the ground."
"Then take the opportunity to kidnap Su Wanjing and use her as a hostage."
"As long as Chen Shanhe cares about this woman, he will have no choice but to bow down and compromise with me."
The confidants looked at each other in dismay, their faces turning pale.
But seeing Wu Yanchou's madness, no one dared to disobey.
A crazy arson and kidnapping plan targeting Tan Tu and Su Wanjing was thus finalized.
III. Awaiting the decisive battle to protect the beauty
Chen Shanhe stood alone on the mudflat, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Wu family's courtyard.
His eyes were cold, but his face remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
From the near-miss car accident to the intervention of provincial and municipal departments in the investigation, he had long seen through Wu Yanchou's intentions.
This person is narrow-minded to begin with, and now that he has been driven to a dead end, he will surely resort to desperate measures, and his next move will only be more extreme.
Chen Shanhe knew in his heart that he and the Wu family had reached a point where a decisive battle was inevitable.
This was both a life-or-death struggle and a crucial opportunity for him to expand his network of connections.
As long as he stays calm, preserves evidence, and cooperates with relevant departments in handling the matter according to law.
This case would allow them to naturally gain access to leaders at the county and city levels.
His roots are in the mudflats, and his bridges are his medical skills. He got to know Wang Feihu through his medical skills, and now, through this incident, he can extend his network of connections from the townships to the counties and cities.
In the future, aquaculture procedures, aquatic product sales channels, and local resources will all be much smoother as a result.
He slowly raised his hand and gently touched the needle pouch at his waist, his expression becoming increasingly calm.
The needle pouch can both save lives and protect oneself in times of crisis.
What's meant to happen will happen eventually; simply avoiding it won't solve anything.
Only by facing challenges head-on can we completely clear away obstacles and gain a firm foothold.
Su Wanjing, who was standing to the side, was completely unaware that danger was approaching.
She squatted by the water, holding a notebook in her hand, intently recording the growth of the clams and the water temperature data.
The sunlight fell on her, bringing her a sense of peace.
Chen Shanhe turned to look at her, his gaze softening slightly, but he was already on guard.
He would never allow Wu Yanchou's scheme to harm those around him.
IV. The Miraculous Healing Effect of Silver Needles - A Famous Doctor
Inside the Xu family's old house in the city, everyone stood silently, the atmosphere so heavy it was almost suffocating.
Tang Chaobei, a renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor specially invited from the provincial capital, slowly loosened the old man's wrist and put down the pulse pillow.
He shook his head at the people who had been waiting anxiously for a long time and let out a long sigh.
"The old man's pulse has stopped, his vital energy and blood are exhausted. He won't make it past the winter solstice. We should hurry up and prepare for his passing."
Upon hearing this, it took a long time for his face to turn deathly pale, his body went limp, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
The whole family was immediately filled with grief and despair.
Xu Jiuzhen, an uncle and cousin standing nearby, immediately stepped forward and blocked the old man's bedside.
He looked at Chen Shanhe, who arrived shortly afterward, with disdain on his face and sternly tried to stop him.
"What skills can a country doctor have? Don't treat him haphazardly here and delay the old man's final moments."
Xu Jiucai was already extremely anxious, and upon hearing this, he immediately retorted sharply.
"Dr. Chen is a highly skilled doctor I went to great lengths to invite; he's far more reliable than anyone you could just find!"
Xu Jiuzhen still wanted to argue, but Chen Shanhe said nothing more and went straight to the bedside.
He reached out and gently placed his hand on the old man's wrist, his fingertips quietly pressing on the pulse.
After a short while, he withdrew his hand and took out a silver needle from his waist.
With the acupoints clearly identified, a slight flick of the wrist sends several silver needles falling in sequence.
As soon as the needle was inserted, the old man's previously slight chest movements gradually became steady.
Immediately afterwards, the old man's eyelids twitched slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Everyone present was stunned, and after a long while, they burst into tears of joy.
Tang Chaobei, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, his face filled with shock, speechless for a long time.
He strode up to Chen Shanhe and immediately bowed deeply.
"Mr. Chen's medical skills are unparalleled, far surpassing ours. I wish to become your apprentice and diligently study under you!"
