Chapter 952 952: You Were Used
Chen Xuan sneered coldly, "I don't care if you believe it or not, you'll find out soon enough."
"Jin Jiu, keep a close eye on those two, and don't let them leave the scene."
"Understood! Don't worry, Mr. Chen." Jin Jiu responded, his eyes fixed on Zhang Yunpeng and the sales manager.
Humph!
Zhang Yunpeng snorted coldly, "Such pretense! I'd never believe you could bring Old Han back to life!"
"He's just bluffing, deliberately trying to distract everyone." The sales manager shrugged it off, "Just wait and see what tricks he has up his sleeve!"
At this point, neither of them believed that Chen Xuan had revived Old Han.
After his words, Chen Xuan turned and walked into the pharmacy.
Though he had revived Old Han, the poison was deep-seated, so it would take a while for him to wake up.
Old Han's wife stood by the clinic door, restless, and opened the door to check the situation.
Finding Old Han still lying motionless, she immediately shouted at Chen Xuan, "Didn't you say you revived Old Han? Why isn't he moving at all?"
Chen Xuan spoke softly, "Please be patient, ma'am, he needs more time to wake up."
Old Han's wife's expression fluctuated, "Fine, I'll trust you this once, but if Old Han doesn't wake up soon, I won't let you off!"
Standing at the pharmacy door, Zhang Yunpeng and the sales manager exchanged a cold, mocking smile.
They were even more convinced that Chen Xuan was talking nonsense, and hadn't revived Old Han at all.
Just wait and see how he tries to wiggle out of this!
The people watching at the pharmacy door were all curious now, eager to know what had happened to Old Han, and whether he could be revived.
Everyone was discussing the matter, talking non-stop.
Chen Xuan turned and entered the clinic again to check on Old Han.
He made sure to bring Old Han's wife into the clinic.
"Ma'am, check his breathing and pulse. See if there's any sign of life." Chen Xuan gestured with his hand.
Old Han's wife was skeptical but reached out to check his breathing, and indeed felt a slight movement.
Her face showed sudden shock, then joy, "You really brought Old Han back to life!"
"When will he wake up?"
"As early as half an hour, or up to an hour." Chen Xuan said calmly, "Don't worry, your husband will be fine."
Old Han's wife sighed in relief but still didn't show Chen Xuan any warmth, "Even though you revived my husband, the fact remains that you're responsible for all this, I won't thank you."
Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Ma'am, you've been used, don't you realize that?"
Hmm?
Old Han's wife looked confused, "What do you mean? Who used me?"
Chen Xuan chuckled softly, "It's those two outside, Zhang Yunpeng and his subordinate."
"Think about it, did you know them before? Why are they suddenly so concerned about your husband?"
"Even if your husband had an adverse reaction from the medicine I prescribed, shouldn't he have been taken to the hospital immediately?"
"Why bring him straight to me for explanations? Isn't it obvious this is a setup against me?"
Old Han's wife seemed uncertain, "I also think this whole situation is odd, but my husband really did drink your medicine and ended up like this."
"I personally brewed those herbs for him and watched him drinking them, that couldn't have been tampered with."
Chen Xuan laughed, "Ma'am, your husband came to me for treatment yesterday afternoon, meaning he should have taken those herbs last night, right?"
"Did he have any problems last night? Clearly, this only happened this morning, if it had happened last night, I wouldn't have been able to revive him now."
"Think about it, the same herbs, no problem last night, but trouble after taking them this morning — doesn't that seem strange to you?"
Old Han's wife hesitated, "That's true, he took the herbs last night and seemed fine."
"What exactly happened here?"
Chen Xuan chuckled, "My guess is that your husband was tricked by Zhang Yunpeng and secretly took a poison pill, making it seem like the herbs caused the poisoning."
"That's impossible! My husband… He wouldn't gamble with his own life! I don't believe it!" Old Han's wife shook her head repeatedly, refusing to accept Chen Xuan's explanation.
Chen Xuan wasn't in a rush to explain further, calmly saying, "We'll wait until your husband wakes up, and see what he has to say."
"Fine!" Old Han's wife nodded, keeping her eyes on her husband, hoping he'd wake up soon.
Chen Xuan sat there quietly, not in a hurry.
He was confident Old Han would wake up, and the truth would come out then...
