This woman’s sudden appearance made Sun Yunzhong’s expression instantly darken. Before Sun Yunzhong could come back to his senses, the woman’s words made his face turn red from shock. He took two steps forward to stop the woman from continuing, but the woman didn’t give him a chance at all and continued to push him to the side.
“The Pauling Medical Center is the Sun family’s business, but in fact, you guys are a bunch of scammers! If not for my father, the Pauling Medical Center would have closed down long ago!
You want to use this opportunity to kill my son so that the wreaked havoc born by that Little vixen can take over? Pfft!
“The Pauling Medical Center can only belong to my son, Ruxing. Even if anything happens to him, my grandson is still around, Don’t even think about giving it to that little vixen’s son!”
This woman was quite angry. As she came up to check on Sun Ruxing, she scolded Sun Yunzhong.
Her words made the surrounding onlookers dumbfounded. So the head of the medical association in the northern region was actually a freeloader?
More importantly, it seemed that his so-called impressive medical skills were a lie, and he wanted to abandon his wife after he social climbed…
This was too unexpected!
“Madam, I admit defeat. Please be magnanimous and save my son’s life! 1 have no complaints about what you want after that. You can kill or torture me!”
The woman took his pulse very skillfully. Then, she turned around and knelt in front of Lin Suisui without hesitation.
At this point, Lin Suisui asked Doctor Luo to bring out the antidote she had prepared long ago and get someone to take it for Sun Ruxing.
Then, she helped Sun Zhou, who was still kneeling on the ground, up. “Don’t worry, he’s fine. He just needs to recuperate for a few days after returning.’1
“Thank you, Madam. Thank you for your kindness.” After Madam Sun Zhou thanked her gratefully, she called a few old women over and they quickly helped Sun Ruxing up, then carried him to the sedan chair.
After this group of people left, Sun Zhou took out a document that she had prepared long ago from her sleeve and threw it at Sun Yunzhong’s face as she sneered. “I want to divorce you!”
It was also because of this incident that everyone found out for the first time that the Pauling Medical Center wasn’t the Sun family’s, but the Zhou family’s!
Sun Yunzhong was actually just a son-in-law who had married into the Zhou family!
No one expected the matter to end in such a farce. Sun Zhou seemed to have already prepared it. Not only had she prepared the documents and related asset forms for a divorce, but also written a series of documents from when Sun Yunzhong married into the family. At the same time, she brought the Zhou family’s patriarch and ciders to drag Sun Yunzhong to the county governor’s residence.
Lin Suisui waited until everyone had dispersed and Lu Ze accompanied her to the carriage back to the residence before asking him, ”Did you arrange for Sun Zhou to come over?”
Once she calmed down, she realized that something was wrong.
If she really wanted to divorce Sun Yunzhong, with Sun Yunzhong’s actions over the years, Sun Zhou would have done so long ago. Why would she wait until now?
Although Sun Yunzhong was profiteering, because he knew how to manage things and worked hard for the Zhou family, as time passed, in the face of tempting benefits, many of his flaws were ignored.
Therefore, Sun Yunzhong was able to take in concubines and dote on them.
Sun Zhou, who was supposed to be the head of the family, had no choice but to endure it again and again. In the end, even the most basic benefits were jeopardized.
If not for the fact that a stronger faction had stepped forward to support Sun Zhou, she probably wouldn’t have dared to take this step today.
“I just told her that if she wants to take back her assets and make Sun Yunzhong pay the price, this is her only chance. If she can stand up for herself, I’m naturally willing to help her. Although it’s impossible for the Pauling Medical Center to be as glorious as before, at least in the future, it’ll be able to operate and they won’t have to worry about their family’s livelihood.”
Lu Ze nodded and confirmed Lin Sui’s speculation.
The best punishment for a person like Sun Yunzhong was to make him lose everything he cared about and return him to his original state!
After they dealt with Sun Yunzhong and Kong Xunqi was captured by Pei Qian, the entire medical association would collapse, since the remaining people wouldn’t be able to carry the burden. After Lu Ze released those people to hoard herbs and replenish such evidence, more than half of the medical association’s medical center, which had once earned a lot from monopolizing the market and selling high-priced herbs, closed.
Lu Ze didn’t intend to let these people off easy. He locked all the criminals in the Imperial City government office. If their family members wanted them to be released, they had to cough up all the dirty money they had earned over the years.
Although many families were unwilling, they couldn’t help but compromise in the end and reluctantly handed over the wealth they had accumulated.
Lu Ze didn’t embezzle this considerable sum of money. Instead, he used this money to renovate the houses in the slums of North Mountain City. The rest was sent to the orphanage so that the orphans who had lost their families because of the war could be better taken care of.
These arrangements made the citizens of the entire Cloud Mountain City praise Lu Ze. At the very least, everyone could afford treatment now!
The dilapidated houses that had accidents every winter could finally be renovated. This way, the houses wouldn’t collapse again when it snowed in the future!
Lu Ze had discussed these arrangements with Lin Suisui early in the morning, so when he announced his orders outside, Lin Sui, who was at home, wasn’t surprised.
Mrs. Luo praised Lu Ze and Lin Suisui when she came over. As she handed the sweet green rice balls to Bai Guo, she said to Lin Suisui with a smile, “There are rumors that Madam Liu is a Bodhisattva who saves people from trouble spreading outside.”
“That’s not right. If I were a living Bodhisattva, what would my husband be?” Lin Suisui looked at the cute sweet green rice balls. When she heard Mrs. Luo’s words, she frowned slightly and turned around to ask curiously..
