A woman in her 1970s remarried a tycoon with no heir, and gave birth to triplets, stunning the famil

"Ge Hongbing, show some respect to me. This is Dr. Jiang, the woman who developed the prescription for snake venom and external wound medicine." Dean Ge glared at his son who didn't know his place.

Upon hearing that this beautiful woman was the same slut who had insulted him, Ge Hongbing's anger flared even more: "So you're that arrogant little brat! What do I have that makes me unworthy of you?"

You're good-looking and from a good family, yet you'd rather live a life of widowhood with a good-for-nothing than be with me.

Now you've come all the way to our hospital. If you kneel down and beg me now, maybe I'll agree to prepare the medication for you. Otherwise…”

The island hospital often faces drug shortages, and each time they have to request medication from that hospital.

Ge Hongbing's eyes were full of wicked amusement, especially when his gaze fell on the red marks on Jiang Linwan's fair collarbone, his greed was undisguised.

He had barely finished speaking when he was met with a loud slap. Dean Ge launched into a tirade against him: "I think you're asking for trouble."

"How dare you make Dr. Jiang kneel down before you! You should kneel down and apologize to Dr. Jiang right now!"

After speaking, Dean Ge looked at Dr. Jiang with lingering fear. This brat didn't know Lu Qiyue's renowned reputation, but Dean Ge knew very well that even if Dr. Jiang's husband wasn't Lu Qiyue, breaking up a military marriage was a crime.

That brat is asking for trouble; it's also because he spoils him too much.

Before Ge Hongbing could react, his knee was suddenly kicked, and the momentum from the impact caused him to kneel on one knee.

Then his shoulder was slammed down hard, and his other leg was forced to kneel on the ground, right in front of Jiang Linwan.

Looking up, Ge Hongbing met Jiang Linwan's gaze. Feeling Jiang Linwan's condescending gaze, Ge Hongbing's eyes turned bloodshot with anger.

"Dad, why should I kneel down to this little bitch? Do you know how she and the matchmaker insulted me?"

He's just a lowly doctor at an island hospital, and you actually joined in humiliating me for her sake!

"You brat, shut up! What's wrong with an island hospital? She's earned merit for the military region, what an honor!" Dean Ge said in a low voice, "Do you even know who her man is?"

The only land regiment on that island—even if he couldn't have children, it didn't affect the military region's high regard for him.

Do you know that breaking up a military marriage is punishable by death? Not only did you break up a military marriage, but you also insulted a meritorious soldier of the military region. Even ten of me couldn't protect you.

If you want to keep courting death, I won't even bother with you. Anyway, your mother and I are still young; at worst, I'll just have another one.

The crimson in Ge Hongbing's eyes faded. The reason he wanted to marry Jiang Linwan was for the formula she had, so he could give it to his father and make him think more highly of him.

Looking at Jiang Linwan, he was filled with resentment and said in a low voice, "Dr. Jiang, I'm sorry. I was blind to have dared to presume to be associated with you. I'm so sorry..."

Jiang Linwan never expected the world to be so small; the town they came to was exactly the same town the matchmaker had mentioned.

The doctor's ethics are truly hard for her to trust, given that he could raise such a son.

She wanted to find a way for the fishermen of Dayu Island to make a living, but she couldn't just cooperate with anyone for money. People without medical ethics wouldn't treat patients properly if they got these medicines; they would just raise prices on the spot, and it would be the ordinary people who would suffer.

"Dean Chen, let's go to another hospital," Jiang Linwan said, turning and leaving.

Dean Ge immediately became anxious, glared fiercely at his son, and chased after him with a fawning expression.

"Dr. Jiang, don't worry, I will definitely not let this brat off the hook! If you think kneeling down and apologizing is not enough..."

"Then what do you suggest? Anything is fine as long as you can forgive him."

Ge Hongbing was furious when he heard this. When did the person who came to ask for medicine become the boss?

He stormed out and grabbed his father, saying, "Dad, I've already apologized. What else does she want?"

"They asked us for medicine and this is their attitude? Even bullying others isn't allowed."

"You brat, what do you know?" Before Dean Ge could finish speaking, Jiang Linwan interrupted him with a smile, looking at Ge Hongbing: "Then what attitude do you think one should have when asking someone for medicine?"

Ge Hongbing immediately crossed his arms and looked at Jiang Linwan arrogantly: "Of course, we'll beg and plead with you."

Dean Ge's expression grew increasingly grim, while Dean Zhang almost burst out laughing. He had long said that Ge Hongbing, that brat, deserved a good lesson.

Old Ge wouldn't listen, and now he's getting his comeuppance!

"Ge Hongbing, shut up! Who told you that they begged us? It was your father who wanted to buy their medicine and cooperate with them." Dean Ge said, kicking Ge Hongbing in the buttocks.

Ge Hongbing looked utterly incredulous! How could this be!

After finishing his sentence, Dean Ge looked at Jiang Linwan, gritting his teeth and asking with difficulty, "If I really do that, will you cooperate with our hospital?"

Jiang Linwan looked down at him, a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Why? Don't you think this is humiliating?"

"Yeah, Dad, we don't care about this bullshit cooperation." Ge Hongbing looked anxious. If his dad really did that, where would he put his face? His dad was such a proud man, who knew how others would see him in the future!

"That's my own fault for not raising my son well. You might think I'm doing this for money."

While I may not be as noble as Lao Zhang, who believes that love conquers all, I am not a petty person who is solely driven by money.

Our current medical system is underdeveloped, and we lack good medicines. Every good medicine can save people's lives.

"I cannot allow ordinary people to miss their chance to fight for their lives just because I failed to raise my children well."

Jiang Linwan looked at him in surprise upon hearing these words.

Dean Zhang's eyes reddened slightly as he looked at Jiang Linwan and said, "Dean Ge is a good person, and he is wholeheartedly dedicated to serving the people."

Ge Hongbing's eyes suddenly reddened. Seeing his father's bent back, he quickly stopped him and knelt down in front of Jiang Linwan with a thud, then kowtowed several times: "Dr. Jiang, I was the one who bullied you by abusing my power."

I was arrogant and bullied people, please forgive me...

"Alright, I agree to the cooperation, but I'll set the price. I won't let you lose money, but you can't take these drugs from a certain list." Jiang Linwan thought Dean Ge wouldn't do that, but she still had to make things clear.

If Dean Ge refuses, then it's a good time to cut your losses and avoid being fooled by the sob story. But if Dean Ge agrees, then there are so many leaders in China who genuinely serve the people.

Even though the road ahead is full of difficulties, with people united and on the right track, the foundation will gradually be strengthened.

As long as this pragmatic and people-oriented spirit remains, the future will surely be bright.

"That's definitely no problem." Dean Ge immediately smiled, and the few strands of hair on his bald head swayed with his smile. "You've come all this way, so I'll treat you to a meal."

"It has nothing to do with cooperation; it's just a treat from my longtime friend, Old Chen." Dean Ge could tell that this girl, despite her young age, had a high level of awareness.

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony with you." Just as Dean Chen finished speaking, a female nurse rushed over: "Dean, a patient who was cut by the rocks and bitten by a venomous snake has just arrived."

The wound is bleeding heavily and we can't stop the bleeding; we don't have enough blood plasma..."
