Chapter 1558 Fake Medicine
"Stay here obediently and don't cause any more trouble." After He Ning said that, he returned to his house in the front yard. Jia Zhong came in to inform him that there were people from the Du and Song families at the door.
Before He Ning went looking for them, they had already come to settle scores with him. He found that to be quite interesting. It was rare for everyone to be gathered together, so he decided to meet them.
Song Dan and Du Miao waited anxiously outside the door, Song Dan being the more anxious of the two. Old Master Song's treatment could not be delayed any longer. Some time ago, Old Master Song's condition had improved a lot after taking the medicine sent by the Liang family. However, after they ran out of the "divine medicine", Old Master Song's condition began to deteriorate again.
If they had a choice, they would not come to beg He Ning.
"Such rare guests. Why will Bureau Chief Song and Young Master Du ever come looking for me?" He Ning asked with a smile.
"Let's just speak freely. It's too tiring to beat around the bush. I want to buy all the 'divine medicine' in your possession. Name your price," Song Dan said.
He Ning looked at Song Dan and laughed loudly. Young people simply had no patience. This young man had already revealed his trump card to him. How interesting.
"What you're trying to buy is my life. I also need the medicine to stay alive!" He Ning said.
"Don't you still have the ginsengs which Qiao Mei sold you? Those are enough for you to improve your health. I only want the other 'divine medicine' in your hands. Let's each have what we need," Song Dan said.
Huo Gao packed up the two bottles of medicinal wine and handed it to Du Miao and Song Dan. The two of them said their thanks insincerely and headed for the private hospital after they left the He family residence. Huo Gao felt so sorry to lose the medicinal wine!
He had wanted to study how Qiao Mei concocted it, but he did not expect someone to take it all before he could even start.
"You don't have to feel sorry. Those are fake," He Ning said with a smile.
"Fake? Fake medicine!" Huo Gao said as he looked at He Ning in shock. A person could die from eating fake medicine!
He Ning shrugged and said, "It came from the Zhong family and I haven't even opened it yet. How can the fake medicine be from me?"
The Zhong family could not bear to give away the two bottles of "divine medicine" to others as they wanted to keep it for themselves! However, they also did not want to offend He Ning, so they only gave one bottle of real medicine to He Ning. The other bottle contained vegetable juice which resembled the "divine medicine".
The liquid would not kill anyone. He Ning did not care about the divine medicine that was light green in color. Those things were not even as nutritious as his 100-year-old ginseng!
The only reason why he could tell the difference between the two bottles of medicine was that there was some tiny residue at the bottom of one bottle. Although it was very inconspicuous, there was still a difference. He Ning was very meticulous in such aspects.
Song Dan brought the medicinal wine back and fed it to Old Master Song. At first, it was very effective, but his condition gradually became the same as before. The doctor had even listed him as critically ill twice.
