Chapter 11 Seeking Revenge
"Okay, we can go now. Let's leave this boy here for his sister to take care of the body," Jiang Chong said.
Jiang Chong had thought Chen Ming was tough, but now he realized he had overestimated him.
"Remember my name, Jiang Dashuai. In the future, when you tell people you were beaten by me, they might give you an extra two steamed buns!" Jiang Chong laughed as he left with his men, slamming the door behind them.
Gritting his teeth, Chen Ming got up from the ground and hurried to his sister's sickbed. Despite his efforts, his sister remained unconscious, her limbs slowly stiffening.
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu!" Chen Ming called out in panic.
Nurse Ye Ting rushed in, looking flustered. "What's happening?"
"Quick, prepare the silver needle with me!" Chen Ming instructed urgently.
Ye Ting, initially stunned, quickly retrieved the needle as Chen Ming continued to tend to his sister.
After successfully stabilizing Xiaoyu, Chen Ming exhaled deeply. Ye Ting then led Feng Wanqian and Dean Wang Haoming to the ward.
"Senior, your arm!" Feng Wanqian noticed Chen Ming's injured arm and rushed to his side.
"It's just a fracture, nothing to worry about," Chen Ming reassured him.
Feng Wanqian turned to Dean Wang Haoming, questioning the sudden turn of events. Chen Ming interjected, revealing that Jiang Chong was behind the attack.
The mention of Jiang Chong shocked everyone present, given the influence of the Jiang family in Xingyi City.
As Feng Wanqian offered his support, Chen Ming vowed to handle Jiang Chong himself. The next day, Feng Wanqian stood guard at the sickbed while Chen Ming met Su Ziting downstairs.
Su Ziting, noticing Chen Ming's injured arm, expressed concern. Chen Ming assured her it was a minor issue and suggested they find some herbs.
As they drove towards Su Ziting's hometown, Chengjiazhuang Village, a sense of silence enveloped them.
When they reached the entrance of Chengjiazhuang Village, Su Ziting suddenly hit the brakes.
"Oh... it's the Jiang family once more!"
"The Jiang family?"
Chen Ming peered ahead.
He noticed that the previously smooth cement road had been dug up to form a deep trench.
It stretched all the way to the construction site on the roadside.
"Jiang Pharmaceutical arrived in the village last year for investment, promising to establish an ecological Chinese herbal medicine plantation, but instead purchased several plots of land to construct villas."
Su Ziting's tone dripped with sarcasm.
