How could that scoundrel Zhu Bufan be such a beast, what grudge does he have against our young lady to want to poison and kill her so insanely? Could it really be that he is an assassin hired by Ouyang Talong, aiming to murder the young lady to seize her property?
"Liu Feng, seize this man immediately and take him to the Police Station, use every channel to have the authorities execute this son of a bitch within a week for Feiyu's revenge!" Du Yujiao suddenly stopped crying, raised her head, and sternly scolded the security guards at the door.
"Yes, Lady!" Several uniformed security guards promptly rushed forward to apprehend him.
"Hold on! I didn't do anything, what right do you have to arrest me!" Zhu Bufan fiercely raised his hand and pushed the approaching security guards aside, declaring that while others might endure such groundless accusations, he, Zhu Bufan, absolutely could not.
"You poisoned my daughter to death with these poisons and still want to deny it, huh, this prescription is written by your own hand, you can't deny it!" Ouyang Feihuang immediately took out the "evidence" and flaunted it in front of Zhu Bufan, as if it were irrefutable proof!
"Hahaha, what a joke, if I, Zhu Bufan, could kill someone by simply writing a few words, then I might as well not be a Divine Doctor at all; wouldn't being an Assassin be more exhilarating? Ouyang Feiyu did not ingest any of my medication, the surveillance camera in this room can testify to that, what does her life or death have to do with me?" Zhu Bufan was annoyed by the unreasonable behavior of the Ouyang family and spoke with significantly more defiance.
"This…" Du Yujiao finally came to her senses and instantly spread her hand under Ouyang Feiyu's nostrils, only to find that the person was just temporarily unconscious, with no danger to her life!
"Let me see the prescription." Only then did Du Yujiao recall the so-called "murderous prescription," eager to see what terrifying substance could frighten Feiyu into unconsciousness?
Ouyang Feihuang immediately handed the prescription over to Du Yujiao, and upon examining it, Du Yujiao's pretty face turned incredibly ugly. It was good that she was in decent health—had she been frail like Ouyang Feiyu, she probably would have fainted on the spot!
"Ha ha," Du Yujiao, pushed to the extreme, mocked with a cold laughter, "Is this the prescription you prescribed for Feiyu, Divine Doctor?"
"Yes, this is the prescription I composed for Ouyang Feiyu. However, I only wrote half of it; it's not yet complete. May I ask if Lady Du would permit me to finish writing the prescription?" Zhu Bufan replied calmly.
"I don't see the need for that. I ask you, what is this arsenic?" Du Yujiao asked coolly.
"Arsenic, a highly toxic substance, odorless. A white powder or crystal. Its nature is cool and yin..."
"Enough, since you know arsenic is a highly toxic substance and still you've added it as a drug guide, clearly you are plotting against our Feiyu. Tell me, who sent you, if you confess I might consider sparing your life!"
"To be precise, it was the eldest young master who invited me back to treat Miss Ouyang Feiyu. However, since you all mistook me for someone who came to harm Ouyang Feiyu, then there's nothing more for me to say. If you don't wish to accept my treatment, I shall take my leave. Farewell!" After speaking, Zhu Bufan turned around to leave.
"Stop right there! You speak as if it's so trivial, does attempted murder count for nothing? With this prescription alone, I can throw you in jail, hmph!" Du Yujiao spoke angrily. She was determined not to let Zhu Bufan off easily.
Zhu Bufan did not offer any further defense for himself, but directly said, "Lady, is there anyone here who understands pharmacology? Bring a few to have a few words with me, and you'll naturally understand."
"There's no need. I have studied internal medicine for a few years and know a bit. Speak your piece; I really want to see if your clever tongue can turn these couple taels of arsenic into sugar!"
"Lady, since you know about medicine, do you know that arsenic is a medicine? Anyone with a bit of knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine should know this!" Zhu Bufan's statement was explicit: if you don't know this, you truly don't understand medicine.
"This… I do know a little," Du Yujiao responded with a flushed face, not completely understanding whether this substance was indeed necessary, but she had often seen in movies that murderers usually bought arsenic from drugstores to harm people, so it seemed that arsenic was indeed a medicine!
"Lady, since you know that arsenic is a medicine used for treating diseases, why do you subconsciously regard it as poison when I include it in this prescription?" Zhu Bufan took this opportunity to counter.
"Nonsense. The amount of arsenic you're using is too much. Eat a couple taels at once and see if you don't die. I don't believe you would survive!" Ouyang Feihuang, with her straightforward thinking, pointed out the crux of the issue. A couple taels of arsenic could poison more than a dozen people, let alone a physically weak person like Ouyang Feiyu. "Hehe, Miss Fei Huang is indeed smart, but this prescription of mine contains as many as 134 different medicinal ingredients. These ingredients complement and counteract each other; when combined, they not only neutralize their individual toxic properties but also form a Divine Medicine that cures all diseases. Just one dose of this pill can guarantee to cure Miss Ouyang's illness!"
Du Yujiao, however, shook her head continuously, speaking with extreme disappointment, "Boy, you claim to be a Divine Doctor, yet you spout such preposterous nonsense. I think you're just a con artist from the streets."
Zhu Bufan felt his heart lurch. He had been caught up in the moment, impulsively letting slip nonsense about Divine Medicine, and Du Yujiao had picked up on something off, blowing his cover!
This won't do, I must change the subject; I can't let her debate about my identity! Otherwise, this guy Zhu Bufan is really going to be exposed.
Thinking thus, Zhu Bufan quickly started to defend himself, "Lady, whether I'm a street swindler is not up to you to decide, nor is it for me to say. Weren't you firmly convinced that my medicine is poison? If I personally take this medicine and don't die, wouldn't that prove my innocence?"
"This…"
"If you really dare to take that damned poison, I'll let you off this time!" Ouyang Feiyu, who was in a coma, suddenly opened his eyes and answered the question for Du Yujiao.
"That won't do. If I take the medicine and survive, it not only proves that my medicine is not poison, but also that you have wrongly accused a good person, and you must give me proper compensation."
"Hmm? You dare to negotiate terms with me? Believe it or not, I can have you sent to the Police Station right now!"
"With just these few pieces of trash and rotten eggs, you're far from capable of taking me down!" Zhu Bufan gave Ouyang Feiyu a disdainful glance, not taking the several security guards in the room seriously at all.
"Brave lad, I'd like to see just how capable you are, take this!" A muscular security guard at the door bellowed angrily, then raised his fist and smashed a heavy punch directly towards Zhu Bufan's neck.
