Chapter 760: Quick-Witted
Song Ning could not help but laugh. It seems like the rich second generation had improved their skillof picking up girls. Finally, she said calmly, “You’re not my type. I happen to be the 5% that you can solve with money.”
Yin Zheng was not discouraged. He said, “You’re very special. You’re much more special than the women I’ve dated before.”
Song Ning looked at him quietly before she asked, “What about the woman both of you fell in love with?”
Yin Zheng’s expression changed immediately, and his face turned ashen. After that, he no longer spoke.
Song Ning did not say anything as well and left the room. As soon as she left, she ran into Director Wang.
Director Wang asked in surprise, “Eh? Why didn’t you perform acupuncture for Yin Zheng?”
Song Ning replied with a smile, “I wanted to discuss the plan and illness with you first.”
Director Wang was very satisfied with Song Ning’s response. She held Song Ning’s hand and said warmly, “Let’s go. We’ll discuss this together…”
As they walked, Song Ning asked, “Senior sister, has Director Li always been Bai Yu’s attending doctor?”
Director Wang nodded. “That’s right. He was recommended by Yin Yi, the Second Young Miss of the Yin family.”
…
Song Ning nodded, deep in her thoughts.
Director Wang suddenly asked, “Song Ning, do you believe in karmic retributions?”
Song Ning was stunned by the abrupt change of topic. She hesitated for a moment before she replied, “I do.”
Director Wang smiled before she said in a low voice, “It’s best if you believe it. Those who commit evil will eventually have their retribution.”
Song Ning hesitated for a moment before she asked, “Senior sister, are you talking about Bai Yu? Are you saying her current state is her retribution?”
Director Wang stopped walking and looked at Song Ning. She smiled and said, “I’m not talking about Bai Yu; I’m just talking generally. I’ve been a doctor for so long, and I’ve treated many patients, including wealthy patients. I’ve also seen many things. Sometimes, I really feel their illnesses are their retributions.”
Song Ning said softly, “That’s not necessarily true. What if their illnesses are caused by another person?”
Director Wang said, “Perhaps… In any case, everyone will reap what they sow…”
Song Ning nodded. “An example of what I said before is Director Li. He likely found out about Bai Yu’s family background long ago so he deliberately delayed her treatment. After all, the longer he can drag it, the more money he’ll earn. There’s also the possibility that Yin Yi paid him a huge sum of money to sabotage Bai Yu. For money, he can go against his conscience and harm a young girl. I really want to know what his retribution will be like.”
Upon hearing this, a trace of approval flashed in Director Wang’s eyes. She asked calmly, “So you saw through him a long time ago? Why didn’t you expose him?”
Song Ning also remained calm as she replied, “Because I want to know senior sister’s stance. I’m on your side after all.”
Director Wang smiled and asked, “Aren’t you worried Director Li and I might be accomplices?”
Song Ning smiled. “If that’s true, why would you let me meet Bai Yu? If both of you were accomplices, you wouldn’t have even brought me here…”
Director Wang nodded. “You’re really smart. No wonder you became teacher’s right-hand man. No wonder you’re highly regarded by Old Madam Mu after marrying into the Mu family.
Song Ning’s expression did not change as she said, “It seems like senior sister’s investigation of me is quite thorough.”
Director Wang did not hide it. She nodded and said, “I’m used to being cautious. I hope you don’t mind.”
Song Ning could not help but think, ‘What’s the use even if I mind? Haven’t you already investigated everything?’
Outwardly, Song Ning said, “It’s fine. Senior sister is truly meticulous in doing things.”
