The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Why Is Pei Jue So Cruel to Her! Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Why Is Pei Jue So Cruel to Her! Qingwu said calmly, “I know it’s not something you prescribed, but if you don’t come, and something happens, this medicine would become your responsibility.”

Cold sweat dripped down Chen Jianhong’s forehead!

What was the identity of Mrs. Shen, the wife of Chief Shen!

In ancient times, she would at least be at the level of an Imperial Decree. If something happened under his care, his career could be declared over…

Just thinking about it gave Chen Jianhong a fright!

“How did this medicine appear in Mrs. Shen’s medication?”

“The nurse said she added it herself, but you know that the Primordial Energy Pill is elusive even on the black market, and the control over this medicine in our country is very strict.”

Chen Jianhong nodded, frowned, and said, “You’re right. Even with my connections, getting this medicine is difficult, let alone for an elderly lady in her seventies or eighties…”

Because this medicine was so hard to find, if anything happened to Mrs. Shen, it would be entirely his responsibility as her attending physician!

“I’d like to ask you to give Mrs. Shen a comprehensive examination. Based on my observation, she’s showing some mental issues.”

When Mrs. Shen just fell asleep, she was sleeptalking, worrying if Elder Shen was having an affair!

At this age, still worrying about a husband’s infidelity, that’s most likely a sign of Alzheimer’s, a precursor to dementia…

Chen Jianhong nodded.

“Alright, I’ll examine her later. What about this medicine?”

Even just looking at the medicine in his hand made Chen Jianhong feel uneasy!

Qingwu glanced at him calmly.

“I replaced it with sugar pills this morning, and she didn’t notice. Find something similar to replace it for now, and don’t let the patient take it.”

“Alrighty, why are you here? Did the Shen Family invite you to examine Mrs. Shen? Would you like to join my lab? We offer six insurances and two funds!”

Qingwu: “…”

The reason Chen Jianhong had been blocked by Qingwu so many times was because he talked too much!

She found an excuse without any patience, “I joined Shen Zhongshuang’s lab. You can stop talking now.”

It’d be fine to let her second brother know afterward.

Chen Jianhong: “!!!”

What a pity!

In the ward, Chen Jianhong smiled and said to Mrs. Shen, who had just woken up, “Madam, let’s do a more detailed examination today; Chief Shen is already done on his end.”

After spending so much time with Mrs. Shen, Chen Jianhong had figured out her temperament.

Whenever he mentioned that Chief Shen had undergone some examination, Mrs. Shen would not want to be left behind and request the same for herself.

Sure enough, when Chen Jianhong mentioned it, she immediately extended her hand to him.

“Thank you, Professor Chen.”

As Chen Jianhong examined her, he cheerfully asked, “Madam, I noticed there is a very special medicine in your regimen; was it you who requested it to be added?”

Mrs. Shen had considerable trust in Chen Jianhong’s medical skills.

When she mentioned that medicine, the wrinkles on her face stretched into a smile.

“It was sent by our Yurou, said she specially requested the Divine Medicine in front of a Bodhisattva for me. You won’t believe it; after taking it, I felt all relaxed!”

Sent by Shen Yurou?

The Divine Medicine was indeed remarkable; taking it made one feel as strong as an ox, but an overdose could be lethal…

How did Shen Yurou get the Primordial Energy Pill?

“Our Yurou is so sensible and filial, unlike some people…”

As she spoke, she glared viciously at Qingwu, standing at the corner of the room.

Totally ignorant of what’s going on; here she was, being examined, and this silly girl just stood there watching. Didn’t even offer a hand!

If Yurou were here, she would definitely be at her beck and call!

After the examination, Chen Jianhong gave Qingwu a meaningful look.

“Madam, the results will be out tomorrow, but you’re very healthy for now.”

“Thank you, Professor Chen. Qingwu, see Professor Chen out.”

“Sure.”

The two walked out together.

Mrs. Shen watched their backs as they left. Chen Jianhong was still saying something to Qingwu, and her brow furrowed heavily.

Professor Chen was usually very reserved, only caring about how to take care of her body when Shen Yurou was around, unwilling to speak a single extra word to Shen Yurou.

So why was he so amiable in front of this wild girl, Qingwu?

Was it possible there was something wrong with her health that Chen Jianhong dared not tell her?

If he dared not tell her but told Qingwu, it must have been arranged by that disgusting Zuo Wanjun!

The more Mrs. Shen thought about it, the more it made sense, and she hurled the glass in her hand downwards!

“You all want to see me dead! I won’t let you have your way! Zuo Wanjun, I’m not done with you!”

Screams echoed continuously.

Chen Jianhong was at the ward door, just about to discuss Mrs. Shen’s condition when chaos erupted inside!

The sound of caregivers attempting to calm Mrs. Shen could be heard.

Qingwu said calmly, “We can confirm it: a precursor to Alzheimer’s, and it’s severe, irreversible.”

Mrs. Shen had a severe case of delusion.

Just from that perspective, her condition was not mild either.

Chen Jianhong sighed.

“I understand, I’ll arrange to adjust the madam’s medication.”

“Thank you for your efforts.”

…

In the most expensive golden CBD area in Beijing, the Pei Building
The towering skyline was incredibly imposing. The Pei Clan’s office buildings were arranged in a row, dominating the entire park; as far as the eye could see, it was all Pei Family property.

Shen Yurou, dressed in an exaggerated little dress, still wielded a small parasol with lace even in the office building, entangling with the receptionist.

“I am your President Pei’s fiancée, and you dare to stop me from going in? Do you believe that when I marry into the family, the first thing I’ll do is fire you?”

The receptionist maintained a polite smile on her face.

“Sorry, miss, without an appointment, I can’t let you in.”

“What is an appointment! I want to go in now! Call Brother Pei for me; he will definitely let me up!”

The receptionist retained a professional smile, “You can also contact President Pei yourself.”

Shen Yurou did wish to call Pei Jue, but Pei Jue had blocked her number!

Today, with Qingwu called to care for their grandmother, she didn’t want to spend the whole day stuck in a boring hospital room.

So she came to the Pei Building, and this damned receptionist wouldn’t let her in!

Shen Yurou was furious!

The crucial thing was, there were quite a few young and pretty female employees in Pei Corp; once she’s the lady of the Pei Family, she’ll get rid of all of them!

Pei Jue stepped out of the exclusive elevator, charismatic, his suit flowing elegantly around him.

Shen Yurou’s eyes lit up when she saw Pei Jue!

She glared fiercely at the receptionist and approached him.

“Brother Pei, I’ve come to pick you up from work; let’s go shopping together!”

Pei Jue didn’t spare her a glance, coldly instructing, “Security, throw her out. In the future, if anyone unrelated tries to enter the Pei Building, consider your jobs done.”

Security hurried over, pulled Shen Yurou aside, and threw her out!

Shen Yurou: “!!!”

How could Pei Jue be so heartless to her!

She had clearly expressed her feelings for him!

She wouldn’t believe it! Pei Jue surely didn’t know how great she was; once he did, he would definitely have a change of heart…
