Chapter 236 - The Red-faced Masked Uncle

Miss Yue ‘Er had experienced a lot.

Her parents died, the apocalypse arrived, and her fiancé and good sister betrayed her.

He suddenly put down his chopsticks and placed his right hand on his left chest. He thought to himself, ‘Why does this place suddenly feel so painful?’

Little did he know that it was called heartache.

When they saw their boss suddenly covering the left side of his chest, Guo Bing and the others thought that Jiang Zhennan’s heart-eating poison was acting up again. Their faces immediately changed.

Guo Bing abandoned the food fight. He immediately put down his chopsticks and walked to Jiang Zhennan. He asked with concern, “Boss, what’s wrong? Is it the poison from before?” The other three people also rushed over and asked with concern, “boss, what’s wrong? Does your chest hurt?”

Doctor Zhang’s 12-year-old attendant saw this and immediately ran to the back yard, shouting, “master, master, it’s not good! Something happened!”

The screams from the front yard alarmed Doctor Zhang and Lin Yuelan.

Doctor Zhang and Lin Yuelan looked at each other and immediately went to the front yard. They saw a group of people surrounding Jiang Zhennan, full of concern.

When Guo Bing saw Doctor Zhang appear, he immediately pulled Doctor Zhang to his side and said anxiously, “Doctor Zhang, can you come and see what’s wrong with the boss? He suddenly clutched his chest. We asked him what was wrong, but he couldn’t say anything!”

Jiang Zhennan didn’t know what to say and that was why he didn’t say anything. He only felt a sudden pain in his chest where his heart was, and he covered it with his hand. His subordinates immediately made a fuss, and before he could speak, they called Doctor Zhang over.

...

Doctor Zhang didn’t say anything. He just took Jiang Zhennan’s hand and took his pulse. His expression darkened. Then, he said to Lin Yuelan, “Girl, you come and take a look.”

Lin Yuelan obediently took Jiang Zhennan’s hand and checked his pulse.

However, the moment Lin Yuelan’s hand touched Jiang Zhennan’s hand, Jiang Zhennan stiffened unnaturally.

Then, she stared at Jiang Zhennan with a suspicious expression.

Guo Bing and the others saw Doctor Zhang’s strange expression, and he immediately asked anxiously, “Doctor Zhang, how is my boss? Is the poison acting up again?”

Doctor Zhang grinned at Guo Bing and said, “your boss ...” He deliberately prolonged his voice.

“How is he?”

“He’s completely fine!” Doctor Zhang said angrily.

Lin Yuelan echoed, “He’s totally fine!”

“Ah?” Guo Bing and the others were stunned.

“He’s fine? How is that possible?” Guo Bing’s eyes widened in disbelief as he asked Doctor Zhang, “We all saw the boss clutching his chest. He seemed to be in a lot of pain.”

“Are you doubting my medical skills?” Doctor Zhang glared at Guo Bing, obviously angry at them. He snorted again. “Hmph. Why don’t you ask your boss why he was clutching his chest?”

Ah?

Guo Bing and the others turned their faces to Jiang Zhennan.

If Jiang Zhennan were not wearing a mask, everyone would have noticed that the handsome and scarred face under the mask had turned red. The redness had even reached his ears and neck.

Jiang Zhennan said in a low and hoarse voice, “Little Bing, I’m fine. There’s no need to make a fuss.”

He then turned to Doctor Zhang and said apologetically, “Doctor Zhang, Xiao Bing and the rest are anxious. That’s why they were disrespectful. Please forgive them.”

Doctor Zhang glared at Jiang Zhennan fiercely, then he said to Guo Bing and the others angrily, “Hmph, on account of your boss’s sincere apology, I won’t hold it against you little brats.”

Then, he glared at Guo Bing a few more times and said to the child who was still eating, “Xiao Tong, let’s go!”

Then, the child quickly and deftly brought out two large bowls from God knows where. He filled one with dumplings and the other with soup. He then took a basket from the pile of firewood and placed the two large bowls in the basket.

He carried the large basket and followed Doctor Zhang obediently. He shouted, “master, wait for Xiao Tong.”
