Uproar

"You... What right do you have to arrest us? We didn't break the law! We just wanted to ask for medicine."0

"Disturbing public order and inciting cyber violence—isn't that considered breaking the law? Will you have to force the Nangong family into a desperate situation and drive my fiancee to death before you realize that words can hurt? Aren't you aware of the cybersecurity law that has just been enacted by the Supreme Court?" 

The patient's family members, "..."

"Also, how can we be sure that you're so eager to save the patient because you're their family?"

"If we're not the family members of the patient, is he supposed to be a child we bought? I'm the patient's mother, this is my husband, this is my youngest son, this is my biological eldest sister, this is my eldest brother-in-law, this is..."

"Enough!" Chi Yang interrupted the middle-aged woman mid-sentence. He said coldly, "I have no interest in your family members. I only know that your name is Lan Cuifang, and you are a farmer from the suburbs of Jinsha County. These people from your family are also farmers, and their place of residence is even more remote than yours. Your eldest son, who is lying in the ward now, is just a hooligan who came to the Emperor District a few years ago. Over these years, he has transferred 10,000 to 20,000 yuan to the family annually.

"However, a few days ago, your family almost came to the Emperor District to shop. Then, your son suddenly fell ill. Somehow, even as bumpkins from remote villages, you knew to come to the military hospital and immediately ask for a very specific antidote without anyone's guidance. You even knew that this antidote was developed by the young miss of the Nangong family. In just a single night, you've managed to spread this matter online—gathering a large number of internet trolls and anonymous people to slander and defame the military hospital and my fiancee online. Explain that to me! If you get the medicine developed by my fiancee, who are you going to give it to? Also, as a senior officer of the Eagle Special Forces, I can tell you that Ning Wenhao suffered from an infection that even his own Ning family, who are part of the first-class group of wealthy families in the Emperor District, could not discover the type of for a long time. How did you conclude that Ning Wenhao suffered from the same infection as your son?"

Chi Yang's words instantly caused an uproar among the crowd at the scene and the online spectators.

F*ck!

Initially, many of them had been under the impression that this was medical injustice. The military hospital was unwilling to help the poor! They did not expect the commander-in-chief of the Eagle Special Forces to perform such a huge expose.

The media outlets which had not been bribed saw the discrepancies in the situation. They immediately began taking pictures of the patient's family members, whose expressions had drastically changed. 

At this moment, Chi Yang had hit the nail on the head regarding what this group of people was thinking. Some of their faces turned pale from fright, some of them had eyes flickering with emotions, and some of them were just extremely embarrassed.

In short, it became obvious to everyone that there was a conspiracy going on.

Even though Chi Yang had said so much, the middle-aged woman still did not realize that danger was approaching. She thought that at worst, she would only be unable to receive the medicine and the remaining payment.

Thinking of the final payment, which was five times the amount of the deposit, the middle-aged woman immediately put her hands on her waist and stuck out her chest. She said, "We came to the military hospital because we heard that the medical facilities here are more well-furnished than in other places. When we brought the child to the hospital for a check-up, it was the doctor who said that the infection was indeed the same as Ning Wenhao's. He even said that we could ask Miss Nangong for help."
