Chapter 250: Are You Here to Make a Joke? [Update No.3 on the 13th]
Zhou Jiandong burst into laughter, "Ha ha ha! Director You, you're a reputed doctor, aren't you? But now you're resorting to bringing someone who clearly hasn't even studied medicine to fool us, have you really degenerated to this point?"
You Yaozong snorted coldly, "Second Master Zhou, I invited Doctor Xu here today to completely cure the Zhou family Patriarch. We can talk about past matters later!"
At this moment, Zhou Changcun was the key factor. As long as Zhou Changcun remained alive, and was living healthily, then there was still hope for everything.
Otherwise, if Zhou Changcun ended up dead without evidence, Zhou Jiandong would be even more at ease, and his own vengeance, You Yaozong, would become impossible to achieve.
Zhou Jiandong's face suddenly turned cold, and he huffed, "My older brother is currently bedridden, and I am fully in charge of all his affairs. Xu Hao, I know you're strong in combat, but this is a matter of life and death. What will you do if you can't heal him?"
Xu Hao spoke indifferently, "You're in charge? Tsk tsk tsk, why do I feel like with you taking charge, your brother is going to die even faster?"
"What do you mean by that?!"
Zhou Jiandong said coldly, "If you continue spouting nonsense, don't blame me for suing you for slander and infringing on my right to reputation!"
Xu Hao shrugged helplessly, "Tsk tsk tsk, other people's brothers sincerely try to help their siblings, not letting go of any opportunity to save them. But you, Old Second Zhou, are actually pushing away the person who's about to save your brother!"
"You? Save my brother?" Zhou Jiandong looked Xu Hao up and down, sneered, and said, "I believe you when you say you can fight ten men, but you claim you can heal people. Isn't that just bullshit? Security, please escort these two gentlemen out!"
Immediately, a large group of security guards surrounded them, with the security chief gesturing to Xu Hao with a "please" motion.
Xu Hao said with a sly smile, "Old Second Zhou, are you preparing to use force against us?"
"I wouldn't dare!"
Zhou Jiandong immediately disclaimed any suspicion, "You barged into my brother's ward without permission, severely disturbing his rest, which is extremely detrimental to his recovery. If my brother dies because of this, our Zhou family will definitely not let you off!"
The accusation Zhou Jiandong made could not have been more grave.
Zhou Changcun was almost a dead man, and even with Lei Qianjue's intervention, it was just keeping him alive by a thread. If he died earlier, Zhou Jiandong could then shift some of the blame onto Xu Hao, putting Xu in quite a predicament.
Xu Hao glanced at Zhou Changcun, who lay on the bed like a mummy, and said, "Ah, the Patriarch of the Zhou family used to be so glorious, and yet, once framed and incapacitated, now he's become like this. I wonder if your daughter will come back and be willing to butcher you, Old Second Zhou?"
Xu Hao had already learned from Wang Zhong that Zhou Shuran had gone to learn Kung Fu, although he didn't know the reason. Reportedly, it was arranged by the former Family Head of the Zhou family, Zhou Talang.
However, what puzzled Xu Hao was how, with such a situation between the two Zhou brothers, with the older one nearly killed by the younger, Zhou Talang could still remain seated and not intervene to mediate. Truly remarkable.
Zhou Changcun was very conscious and had heard everything Xu Hao said. His expression became agitated, and he angrily looked at Xu Hao.
His wife had passed away early, and his daughter was the apple of his eye. Zhou Jiandong's ambition was boundless, and in his insanity, he even dared to plot against himself. He must not let his daughter fall prey to his dirty schemes!
With Xu Hao's words, wasn't he essentially reminding Zhou Jiandong to act against Zhou Shuran sooner rather than later? Otherwise, once Zhou Shuran returned from her training, Zhou Jiandong would be in trouble!
Zhou Jiandong snorted coldly, "Xu Hao, stop trying to stir up trouble here. I respect my older brother deeply, and I treat Shuran as my own. How could I harm her? On the other hand, you, you even spanked my niece's butt in public. If my brother could stand up right now, he'd probably already want to hit you."
Zhou Changcun's hatred for Xu Hao deepened. If it wasn't for his father holding him back at that time, he would have definitely ordered someone to assassinate Xu Hao.
Zhou Shuran was the young miss of the Zhou family, his only daughter; to think she had to suffer such humiliation outside!
"Impressive, Old Second Zhou. You've managed to endure for so many years. Your capacity for forbearance really is substantial. You have yet to slip up even a bit. However, I'm curious, where is your father? How come he hasn't appeared to see his own son?" Xu Hao looked around curiously, unfazed by the security guards.
This made the security chief also feel embarrassed, as he was in charge of a dozen men and considered himself a personage. He angrily said, "Sir, please leave!"
Xu Hao ignored him.
"Please leave!"
Xu Hao still ignored him.
"Take action, escort this gentleman out!"
The security guards immediately charged forward to push Xu Hao and You Yaozong out.
Just at that moment, a voice bellowed, "How dare you! Let's see who dares to touch a single hair on my master!"
