Chapter 1143: 1142 Pretending to Be Sick

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Min was determined to see if Jiang Hao’s leg was injured today. Since she got here, she had already planned it out. If Jiang Hao didn’t let her see it, she would deliberately pour water on Jiang Hao’s gauze. The winter weather was very cold. Even if there was a heater in the room, Jiang Hao wouldn’t be able to stand it being wet.

Fortunately, Jiang Hao didn’t persist for too long. They probably felt that Tan Rou was too young and wasn’t a professional doctor, so she couldn’t see the problem with his leg at all. Therefore, he boldly asked them to come and take a look at his leg.

Tan Rou and Jiang Min looked at each other. Jiang Min nodded at her, signaling for her to quickly go over and check.

Tan Rou sat on the chair and first checked Jiang Hao’s pulse, then pressed on the muscles in his legs. Every time she pressed, Jiang Hao’s face would show a painful expression, as if he was trying his best to endure something.

“That’s enough.” Tan Rou wiped her hands with the wet tissue next to her and said, “Mr. Jiang’s leg injury is really serious. If you don’t take care of it, you might not be able to stand up in the future. I know a friend who didn’t protect his legs well when he was young. When he was in his twenties, he couldn’t stand on his legs anymore. Now, he can only rely on a wheelchair to walk. He needs someone to carry him up and down the steps.”

Jiang Hao was stunned for a moment. “Really? Guess I really have to take good care of myself this time.”

He looked at his legs as if he was thinking about something.

After she finished speaking, Jiang Min finished seeing the doctor. There was no need for her to stay here anymore. She said, “Second Uncle, I still have some work to deal with, so I won’t be here to accompany you. If you need anything, just call me. Don’t be polite to me. Your child is not in the country, so let me take care of you in his place.”

Seeing that they hadn’t found anything, Jiang Hao was relieved. “Alright, you guys go back first. Be careful on the way.”

Tan Rou and Jiang Min left the ward. As soon as they left, Jiang Xian slipped back into the ward.

“Dad, when are you going to buy me a new car?” Jiang Xian muttered, “Also, why did Second Sister get someone else to treat your leg? Could it be that he found out that you were pretending to be sick?”

Jiang Hao said, “That’s impossible. That girl is obviously here to swindle money. She doesn’t have any great abilities. Plus, there’s a cast on my leg. Even if she’s a real doctor, she won’t be able to tell what’s wrong with it.”

Jiang Xian was relieved. “Dad, why don’t you talk to Uncle again and get him to agree to let me join the company? That way, you don’t have to worry about me being taken care of overseas.”

Jiang Hao was silent for a moment. “Didn’t I tell you to wait for an opportunity? Now that Jiang Min has fallen into the trap, as long as the matter is exposed, I will drag her down with me. You’re my only son, and you’re also the most promising person in our Jiang family. Your oldest cousin’s brother only knows how to be a teacher, so he won’t have much potential. So you must work hard and strive to surpass your second sister as soon as possible. That way, uncle will be at ease and let you inherit the family business.”

Jiang Xian was overjoyed. If he inherited the family business, the first thing he would do was to buy a few more sports cars and drive a different one seven days a week.

“Dad, hurry up.” Jiang Xian urged.

In the car, Tan Rou was telling Jiang Min about what she had just learned. “There’s nothing wrong with your second uncle’s leg. His cast is fake. The gap between the cast and the leg is too big. It wouldn’t be able to achieve anything.”

Jiang Min knew that Jiang Hao was lying. She slammed the steering wheel in anger. “Bastard, we should go back to him now and throw away his cast!”

Tan Rou stopped her. “Don’t be anxious. If you head back now, he’ll only complain to your father about you. We have to think of a way to control him and get him to reveal that his leg is fine.”

“I was just about to pour the ice water outside on his legs but he suddenly agreed to let you treat him which was why I couldn’t pour any more water,” said Jiang Min.

“Perhaps this method is feasible.” Tan Rou said, “Under normal circumstances, when people come into contact with very hot or very cold water, they will have a stress reaction. You can make use of it. Plus, his cast is fake. It probably won’t be comfortable if it’s on him for a long time. You can get your trusted aides to keep an eye on him and find an opportunity to pour water on him.”

“Alright, I’ll have it arranged now.” Jiang Min answered without any hesitation.
