507 Mentor!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Matriarch Xu was afraid of delaying her son’s illness and wanted to go out with Xu Hao, but she was directly stopped by her husband.
The current head of the Xu family was Xu Hao’s father.
He said, “Since we want to help the Queen, don’t be in a hurry to see a doctor. If we leave any evidence or traces, we will lose.”
Matriarch Xu was anxious and said, “Dr. Zhang said that this Divine Doctor Jing is the leader of the Chinese medical field and is his mentor. Last time we went, although we didn’t meet, Doctor Jing did say that Xu Hao’s illness cannot be delayed!”
Father Xu said, “Then let’s move the lawsuit forward to tomorrow! Our momentum is strong enough!”
Matriarch Xu hesitated. However, Father Xu supported her arm and said, “This is for the sake of the cooperation between the Xu family and the royal family. This settles it. The Shen family is watching us now, and they are not easy to deal with. If they find any clues, our previous efforts will be in vain!”
Xu Hao also didn’t want to see a doctor for this kind of illness and said, “Mom, listen to Dad.”
Considering this, Matriarch Xu had to give up and said, “Then let’s go to the court first before we go to see the divine doctor.”
The next day.
The Shen family still had no clues.
With the support of the Queen, the Xu family was not weak, so it was normal for the Shen family to not find any clues about the young celebrity.
Shen Ruojing also received a call from Rong Rong. “Dr. Xu is from the Xu family’s side branch. He tried to investigate this matter with the Xu family, but they are currently very secretive. There is no room for a reversal in this matter.”
Shen Ruojing took a deep breath and said, “Okay, please thank Dr. Xu for me.”
After hanging up the phone, Shen Ruojing received the news that the Xu family had sued the Shen family for divorce, and they also demanded compensation of 60 million yuan for the miscarriage caused by the Shen family.
The court had initially ruled that they should negotiate privately, and the court had also sent some negotiators to help.
But seeing that the Xu family was very angry, the negotiators were very anxious and decided to begin the process this afternoon.
The Xu family hired the best lawyer in the capital, but the Shen family was not to be outdone.
In fact, both families understood that the lawyers were secondary, and even the compensation amount was secondary.
The party who won this lawsuit would have its reputation enhanced, and the future stock price of the Shen family would depend on the outcome of this lawsuit.
Shen Ruojing went downstairs and saw Shen Tingyan and Third Madam Shen sitting on the sofa in the living room, both with slightly red eyes.
Shen Yuansong was sitting across from them, holding a cane with both hands. He also had a gloomy expression on his face.
He narrowed his eyes and said, “In this kind of matter, the Xu family just needs to drag it out. We cannot produce any evidence, and the development of the whole matter is in their favor. But since the process has suddenly accelerated, there must be something going on.”
Old Master Shen was very sharp. On the other hand, Third Madam Shen and Shen Tingyan didn’t understand his meaning, but the butler said, “Yes, but the Xu family is now extremely vigilant, and the Queen has also sent a team of guards to help them. It is very difficult for us to obtain any information about them.”
Shen Yuansong lightly tapped the sofa with his fingers. “Could it be because of Xu Hao’s illness?”
“It’s for Xu Hao’s illness,” Shen Ruojing and Shen Yuansong spoke simultaneously, one speculating and the other confirming.
Shen Yuansong looked at Shen Ruojing, who was the one who confirmed. “Xu Hao’s illness seems to be more severe than we imagined. They can’t delay any longer, so they want to quickly conclude this case and make it so that our Shen family is at fault.”
Shen Yuansong stared at her. “Jingjing, are you sure that Xu Hao has a problem?”
Shen Ruojing calmly said, “Yes, but the pulse diagnosis that day was relatively short, and there were no detailed examinations, so it’s still unclear to what extent.”
Third Madam Shen said, “However, they found Dr. Zhang, and he said that Xu Hao has no problem. Dr. Zhang is a famous gynecologist in the capital, specializing in the treatment of infertility. I took Tingyan to see him before, and at that time, Dr. Zhang only said that Tingyan has a little case of cold womb syndrome and that pregnancy depends on fate.”
Shen Yuansong fell silent.
Third Madam Shen didn’t know about Shen Ruojing’s medical background, but Shen Yuansong had some guesses.
He knew that this granddaughter was reliable and wouldn ‘t talk nonsense.
The butler spoke up, “But Dr. Zhang owes Matriarch Xu a favor. When he went to college, Matriarch Xu sponsored him. So this time, he will definitely be biased toward the Xu family and help with the false evidence. It’s going to be troublesome. ”
He sighed. “If we could find a doctor with a better reputation than Doctor Zhang’s, to help prove that Miss Tingyan doesn’t have a problem and Xu Hao is the one with the problem instead, then this case might be overturned!”
When he said this, Shen Yuansong shook his head slightly. “How can medicine be divided into good and bad? Besides, Dr. Zhang’s reputation has been rising in the capital in recent years. Where can we find a more capable doctor than him?”
When this was said, Shen Ruojing spoke slowly, “I can find one.”
Everyone turned to look at her.
Shen Ruojing looked them straight in the eye. “Let’s go, the negotiation is about to begin.”
The others didn’t understand what she meant, but the time was indeed approaching, so they got up and headed out.
Just as they stepped out of the Shen family gate, reporters who had been waiting there rushed over, taking pictures and asking random questions:
“Miss Shen Tingyan, is it true that your physical condition is preventing you from getting pregnant?”
“Is the Shen family really using its power to pressure the Xu family?”
“It is indeed wrong to have a mistress outside of marriage, but did you have to kill the child in her womb because of jealousy?”
“Rumor has it that you’re going to court, can the Shen family win this case?”
Shen Yuansong didn’t bother to answer these questions. They were traveling by car and already had bodyguards rushing over to stop the reporters. So they left directly from the crowd of reporters and headed to the courthouse.
At this moment, outside of the courthouse.
Matriarch Xu, who had the upper hand, was crying to the reporters. “Ever since Miss Shen married into our family, I couldn’t say or do anything. She has the final say in everything, and my son has been oppressed too much. That’s why he went out and found a young celebrity…
“I know my son is wrong, but they shouldn’t have laid a hand on the child in the young celebrity’s womb! Since Shen Tingyan can’t give us a child, why can’t others give us one?
‘What? My son can’t possibly have a health issue! The young celebrity was pregnant and we have invited Dr. Zhang from the capital to give my son and Miss Shen a diagnosis on the spot! His words can’t be wrong!
“We’re not seeking real compensation and just want the Shen family to show a good attitude. They can’t do something wrong and still act so arrogantly, right?”
Dr. Zhang, as a witness, was sitting in the witness room, looking around in confusion and feeling a little lost.
As a doctor, he hadn’t forgotten his original intentions as a healer.
But now he had to make a false testimony here…it made him uneasy.
However, he owed Matriarch Xu…
After this false testimony, would he be fit to continue practicing medicine again?
Guilt surged up in his heart. At this moment, Dr. Zhang only had one thought — Thank goodness his mentor, the Divine Doctor Jing, wasn’t here, or she would be so disappointed to see him like this.
Just as he was thinking this, he heard someone outside say. “The Shen family’s people are here!’
He then instinctively looked outside….
