Noah Chen and Pauline Song's family were enjoying a rare and sumptuous lunch.
Suddenly, Xavier Song's cell phone rang.
Xavier Song took out his cell phone and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Hey, it's my brother's phone number. Why is he calling?"
The corner of Noah Chen's mouth raised slightly, and he said calmly: "If I guessed correctly, he should have called to ask for medicine."
As Noah Chen spoke, he took out a tightly sealed pill and placed it on the table.
Xavier Song's family all remembered that when they left the birthday banquet angrily just now, Noah Chen had said: The Song family would come to ask for medicine in person.
Xavier Song was doubtful, so he answered the phone and pressed the speaker button: "Hello?"
Theodore Song's voice came from the mobile phone: "Second brother, Dad is not feeling well. Please send your An Gong Pill over immediately."
Xavier Song didn't expect that his elder brother was really asking for medicine, and Noah Chen was really right.
He glanced at Noah Chen in confusion, and then subconsciously wanted to agree.
After all, he never dared to say no to his elder brother.
But Lydia Ma snatched the phone away with her hands and said angrily: "Haha, didn't you say that An Gong Pill that we gave you was a cheap pill, and you also threw it on the ground and told us to take it ourselves?"
"If you despise the gift we gave you so much, why are you asking for it now?"
"If you want it, then come and beg us in person!"
After Lydia Ma finished speaking, she hung up the phone angrily.
But as soon as she hung up the phone, the phone rang again, and it was still a call from Theodore Song.
She turned off the phone directly, and in anger she turned off her own phone and Pauline Song’s phone as well, and then said angrily: "They looked down on the gift from our family just now, and they did it in front of so many relatives and friends. Our gift was thrown on the ground, we were not allowed to attend the banquet, and leftover food was given to us.”
"Now they are asking for our medicine and they are so aggressive."
"I don't agree with him. If he doesn't come to ask for medicine in person today, he will never have it."
Pauline Song looked at Noah Chen in surprise. Noah Chen had said before that Mr. Huang would personally come to apologize, but she didn't expect that Mr. Huang actually came.
Just now, Noah Chen said that the Song family would come to beg for medicine, but she didn't expect that her uncle actually called and asked for medicine.
Pauline Song realized that everything Noah Chen said would come true.
She looked at Noah Chen suspiciously: "Tell me honestly, what's going on?"
Noah Chen was feeding the daughter affectionately. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "What do you want me to say?"
Pauline Song snorted and said, "Don't be pretentious. You said my uncle and the others would definitely come to ask for medicine. Why don't you explain why you could predict the future?"
At this time, even Xavier Song and Lydia Ma were staring at Noah Chen, and they were also surprised and confused.
Noah Chen explained with a smile: "When I gave this gift, I heard that Mr. Song is a high-risk patient and is prone to diseases such as stroke."
"So, I prepared this medicine as a gift."
"As for why I was sure they would come to ask for medicine, it was at the banquet just now, I saw the old master constantly toasting to the distinguished guests."
"Drinking is the biggest cause of illness for patients with hypertension, so I thought something would happen to the old master."
"If something happens to the old master, a doctor would certainly tell him that An Gong Pill is a special medicine. If the Song family wants to save the old master, they would definitely come to us for medicine."
After listening to Noah Chen's explanation, Xavier Song and Lydia Ma both showed expressions of enlightenment.
Pauline Song felt there was something wrong, but what Noah Chen said was reasonable and impeccable.
Xavier Song couldn't help but ask Noah Chen: "Is this An Gong Pill really miraculous in treating the three-hypers?"
Noah Chen nodded and said, "Yes!"
Lydia Ma asked again: "Then this medicine should be quite expensive, right?"
Noah Chen said with a smile: "There are very few old medicines from decades ago. One of them was sold at an auction before, and the transaction price was ten million yuan."
Ten million yuan!
Xavier Song, Lydia Ma and Pauline Song all gasped.
Xavier Song quickly returned the medicine to Noah Chen: "Since it is such a valuable medicine, you should quickly put it away."
Noah Chen smiled and said: "This medicine only cost a few yuan a pill back then. Now it is valuable because those rich people cherish their lives and raise the price."
Pauline Song said: "A few dollars a few decades ago was considered a very expensive medicine. Noah Chen, how did you get this medicine?"
Noah Chen blinked: "It was left at home before, but the medicine was not as valuable as it is now."
Lydia Ma said: "You'd better put away such expensive medicine."
Noah Chen said with a smile: "Theodore Song called Dad personally to ask for this medicine. Mr. Song must be sick, so I will let Dad decide."
When Pauline Song's family heard this, they suddenly understood.
Grandpa must be ill now. Noah Chen planned to let Xavier Song handle the medicine. Whether to give it to him or not, whether to save him or not, all depended on Xavier Song's mood.
Lydia Ma looked at her husband: "We gave this medicine to the old master, but he threw it directly on the ground. We had no place to sit at the birthday banquet, and we were given leftovers to eat. This medicine is worth tens of millions, if you give it to them casually, I will be mad at you."
Noah Chen said with a smile: "Mom is right, people live just to fight for dignity."
Lydia Ma felt comfortable after listening to this. Normally, if Noah Chen called her mother, she might have turned against him long ago, but now when she looked at Noah Chen, she became more and more pleased with him.
…
At the Grand Hyatt, the ambulance just arrived and took Mr. Song to the hospital.
Theodore Song asked his son, daughter-in-law, and other relatives to accompany him to the hospital first.
He and his third brother Ray Song walked to the deserted corridor of the hotel to have a discussion.
Theodore Song said: "I called the second brother just now and asked him to deliver the An Gong Pill, but he hung up immediately and his cell phone was turned off."
Ray Song snorted and said, "Brother, their family clearly hates us. Now he doesn't even care about dad's life or death."
"Dad is very old. He suffered a stroke this time. He may have to kick his legs and pass away."
"If dad dies, then you, the eldest brother, will truly be in charge of the family. Isn't that a good thing?"
Theodore Song glanced at Ray Song, shook his head and said: "Third brother, Dad suffers this illness suddenly and he didn't make any will. If he dies like this, then the second brother will definitely be one of the heirs to have a share of the family property.”
Ray Song said angrily: "Why should he?"
Theodore Song: "He is also father's son just like you and me, and the law gives him this right."
Ray Song was anxious: "Brother, what should we do?"
Theodore Song said solemnly: "The most important thing right now is to rescue dad. Dad always listens to me. After we rescue dad, we will coax dad to make a will. We will inherit the property without giving any money to the second brother."
"Only the medicine in your second brother's hand can save dad now. Hurry up and get it now. No matter what method you use, you must get the medicine."
Ray Song said with a sinister smile: "Okay, I'll take Mourning Dog and the others with me. If the second brother doesn't cooperate with me, don't blame me for being rude."
