Chapter 198 The Transaction

"That's fine then, let it go!" Jiang Yi said. It seemed he would have to ask Zhou Wentian himself about this matter. "I'll go upstairs to take a look. We can chat again when I have time!" Jiang Yi said and walked upstairs. Zhou Mao watched Jiang Yi's receding back, filled with self-reproach. Years ago, when Zhou Mao was being bullied, Jiang Yi had helped beat up the other party. It was because of this incident that Jiang Yi's parents and sister had driven to Jiangcheng and gotten into a car accident on the way. For so many years, Zhou Mao had not dared to approach Jiang Yi or face him. In Zhou Mao's opinion, if Jiang Yi hadn't fought with someone to help him, Jiang Yi's parents and sister wouldn't have met with misfortune. Zhou Mao had always wanted to apologize to Jiang Yi, but he could never bring himself to say it. He knew that an apology to Jiang Yi was far from enough. At this moment, everyone had already entered the room. They saw a beautiful girl lying on the bed, her face pale, her eyes slightly closed, looking like a dead person. Various medical equipment was placed beside the hospital bed. The entire room was filled with the pungent smell of medicinal liquids. This woman was Zhou Wentian's second daughter, Zhou Yuanyuan. "Master Yuwen, Divine Physician Wu, my daughter's illness is in your hands!" Zhou Wentian looked towards Yuwen Sheng and Wu Chengwen. "Governor, please rest assured, I will do my utmost!" Wu Chengwen nodded. Yuwen Sheng remained silent, his expression looking a bit dazed. Yuwen Sheng knew no medical skills at all, and with so many people watching, he was bound to be exposed. Now, Yuwen Sheng's heart was in his mouth! He knew very well that once Zhou Wentian discovered he had been deceived for 22 years, he would not only fail to survive, but the entire Yuwen family would also be implicated. "Master Yuwen, are you alright?" Zhou Wentian asked Yuwen Sheng. Hearing Zhou Wentian's voice, Yuwen Sheng quickly came back to his senses. "I... I'm fine..." Yuwen Sheng forced a smile and said, "Senior Wu's medical skills are astounding. As a junior, I dare not snatch the credit from him. Let Divine Physician Wu treat Miss Zhou first! If he cannot, then I will." "No problem, we can discuss it together and then treat her together. This way, our chances of curing Miss Zhou will be even greater!" Wu Chengwen said. Wu Chengwen had no idea that Yuwen Sheng was a fraud. "Divine Physician Wu is right. You are both skilled medical experts. Discussing treatment methods together will increase your chances." Zhou Wentian said. Since Zhou Wentian had spoken, Yuwen Sheng had no choice but to agree. However, once they started treating Zhou Yuanyuan, his deception would be completely exposed. Previously, Yuwen Sheng thought he could get away with it, but he hadn't expected Zhou Wentian to personally supervise. This way, there was no way to muddle through. "Governor, I'd like to discuss something with Senior Wu." Yuwen Sheng said, pulling Wu Chengwen to the window. "What do you want to discuss with me?" Wu Chengwen asked. Yuwen Sheng confirmed that everyone outside the room couldn't hear, then quietly said to Wu Chengwen, "Zhou Mao's legs were not healed by me. I have deceived the Governor and everyone else." "What?" Wu Chengwen's face instantly turned grim. He never imagined that Yuwen Sheng was lying. He knew very well that if Zhou Wentian found out about this, it would be a capital offense. Zhou Wentian hated being played for a fool the most, and yet Yuwen Sheng had treated Zhou Wentian like a monkey. "Yuwen Sheng, I can't help you with this. You're on your own! I don't want to be implicated by you. You might be able to hide this for a while, but not forever. The Governor will find out sooner or later." Wu Chengwen frowned and said. "Senior Wu, only you can help me now!" Yuwen Sheng said with a grim expression. "It's your own problem, solve it yourself. I won't help you. I don't want to risk my life because of you." Wu Chengwen said lightly. "You can't refuse to help me now!" Yuwen Sheng sneered. "Everyone knows we came to the Governor's mansion together. We are already a group. If something happens to me, you won't escape either!" "We are grasshoppers on the same rope now. If one of us gets into trouble, the other will be implicated." Hearing this, Wu Chengwen was furious and wished he could kill Yuwen Sheng on the spot. He knew Yuwen Sheng wanted to drag him down with him. "You don't have much time to think!" Yuwen Sheng said calmly. "What do you want me to do to help you?" Wu Chengwen asked in a deep voice. Wu Chengwen compromised. Now, he had no other choice but to help Yuwen Sheng. If Yuwen Sheng got into trouble, he himself would not escape. "I actually know no medical skills at all. I don't even know basic medical knowledge." "Later, I'll assist you. You secretly tell me what to do, and we'll cooperate to put on a good show, so no one will see through us." Yuwen Sheng said. "Alright!" Wu Chengwen took a deep breath, his face darkened, and he stared at Yuwen Sheng, saying, "I will settle this score with you later." "Senior Wu, please forgive me. I have no other choice but to do this!" Yuwen Sheng said helplessly. Wu Chengwen was filled with murderous intent. This was the first time he had encountered such a frustrating situation. "Divine Physician Wu, Master Yuwen, what are you discussing?" Zhou Wentian asked. "It's nothing important!" Yuwen Sheng walked over with a smile and said, "I'm letting Senior Wu treat Miss Zhou with his method first. If his method doesn't work, then we'll use mine." Hearing this, Zhou Wentian didn't press further. At this moment, Zhou Wentian was not suspicious. "Then let's begin!" Zhou Wentian said. "Yes!" Yuwen Sheng and Wu Chengwen nodded, then walked towards the hospital bed. Yuwen Sheng began to pretend to examine Zhou Yuanyuan's condition. He looked like a very composed divine physician. Meanwhile, Wu Chengwen took out his acupuncture needles. The two cooperated very well, showing no flaws. But no one knew that their hearts were in their throats. Jiang Yi, standing outside the room, saw this scene and smiled at the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect Yuwen Sheng's acting to be so good. With Wu Chengwen's acting skills, Yuwen Sheng could barely get by, but lies would eventually be exposed. Others might not see that Yuwen Sheng was acting, but Jiang Yi saw it at a glance. Time passed continuously. In just ten minutes, large beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of Yuwen Sheng and Wu Chengwen. Both were very scared, fearing exposure. Wu Chengwen was under the greatest pressure, as he had to concentrate on treating Zhou Yuanyuan while also secretly telling Yuwen Sheng how to cooperate.
