Chapter 27: Poisoning and Critical Illness

  Nong Yaode sat with Chen Han, while Nong Jianhua stood aside, pouring tea for the two. Chen Han also remembered Nong Yaode only after entering the Health Supervision Bureau and seeing the photos of the director and deputy directors hanging on both sides of the corridor along with their names.

  Otherwise, he would have chosen another way to deal with things that night.

  The relationship between the Nong family and the Chen family is not known to many people, and Chen Han only vaguely remembers that the last time he saw Nong Yaode was over a decade ago, when Nong Yaode had just been found by Chen Changzhi, and Chen Han was still just a child.

  "It's been so many years since we last met, if I saw you on the street, I wouldn't even recognize you." Nong Yaode, who was more than twice as old as Chen Han and had a stoop, was no longer the calm and capable mayor, but an old brother.

  "Older brother, you haven't changed a bit, still looking like you're over 40." Chen Han smiled and said: "It seems that politics makes people young, indeed it's not false."

  Nong Yaode was not very clear about Chen Han's recent changes, he only knew some things after Chen Han returned to China, a standard second-generation ancestor. This time, when Chen Jianhua went back and told him about this matter, Nong Yaode was also shocked, and he thought for a long time about whether to come or not, finally he still called the old man.

  The old man was the person he admired most in his life. When he was still a section chief, the old man had said that if you work hard, even without any powerful backing, I will help you out a bit in Changhai, and it's possible to become a deputy minister.

  It's worth noting that the old man wasn't just making a wish, at that time Changhai was only a prefecture-level city. In less than 20 years, Changhai became a vice-provincial level city and he would also step onto the most glorious stage of his life.

  The old man simply said to him: "Recently this child has changed a bit, can you help me keep an eye on him?"

  At this time, Chen Han did not lose the demeanor of a great general. Facing himself with neither arrogance nor haste, and neither humility nor pride, as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, Nong YaoDe couldn't help but praise him repeatedly in his heart.

  "I'm old, in a few years I'll go to accompany my grandfather and learn Tai Chi from him. A few years ago, I learned half a set of Tai Chi from my grandfather, but unfortunately, after that, I never had the time to study it again."

  They hadn't spoken a few words when someone knocked on the door, and with Nong Jianhua's consent, a row of 16 waiters came in one after another. Twelve dishes were served, leaving four people who brought wine and water, put them down quietly and left without making a sound.

  Nong Yaode had no airs at all, completely as an elder brother: "Come on, big brother will toast you a cup. Although Grandpa opened the hospital, he won't be able to cure illnesses and save people, this is his greatest regret in life, so he opened the hospital and cultivated you to become a doctor. This cup, I wish you achieve success and return, I wish you make great achievements in the hospital."

  "Wishing elder brother a promotion"

  The two of them drank casually, and then talked about some family matters. Occasionally, they mentioned Chen Han's experiences in the hospital. As they chatted, their conversation turned to self-cultivation and physical well-being.

  In this regard, Nong Yaode particularly admired the old master. The old master's Tai Chi was different from ordinary people and was a true internal family fist with many health preservation methods inside.

  Nong Yaode was so interested, Chen Han said a few words based on Nong Yaode's complexion and age, which completely hit some of the minor ailments that Nong Yaode had now, immediately making Nong Yaode extremely surprised. Chen Han then proposed some nourishing methods, saying that Nong Yaode nodded frequently.

  Chen Han had been the chief physician for over a hundred years and was naturally extremely familiar with officialdom. He used to stand at a high position, so he didn't need to think too much. Now talking with Nong Yaode, they also talked very congenially, what to say and what not to say were all well controlled, so the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable.

  At this time, Nong Jianhua's phone rang, and he picked it up and took a look.

  "Dad, it's Secretary Feng on the phone."

  Nong Yao De came this time, and Nong Jian Hua drove himself. He didn't even bring his secretary, and before he left, he specifically instructed his secretary that if there was nothing important, don't contact him.

  Nong Yaode put down his wine cup: "I just want to have a quiet dinner with my family."

  "Nong Yaode took over the phone and said only one word, then listened to the report on the phone."

  Just then, Chen Han's phone rang too. Chen Han took a look and it was an unfamiliar number. Nong Yaode happened to be answering the phone, so Chen Han walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window about ten meters away to answer the call.

  As soon as the phone was connected, Sun Xiaoyue's urgent voice came through: "Chen Han, where are you? Come over now, immediately, right away."

  Whether it was as a military doctor on the battlefield or later as the chief physician, Chen Han was always in control. Chen Han said in a low voice, "Speak, what's going on? You have no right to order me around. If you say another useless word, I'll hang up the phone immediately."

  "Someone's life is at stake, you know how serious this is? This person can't die, you must come back right away..."

  "Hmm..." Chen Han had already hung up the phone and was quietly gazing out at the sea. Less than ten seconds later, the phone rang again.

  Chen Han answered the phone again, and on the other end of the line came a suppressed, angry breathing sound: "That perverted killer has been poisoned and is now in a deep coma. The people at your hospital say there's basically no hope because he was poisoned with a highly toxic substance. Just now, another robbery occurred, although we had set up police forces, but the other side had strong firepower and was well-prepared, and during the chase in the city, they blew up the car, four policemen were injured, one armed policeman died, and three ordinary people were also killed, with dozens more injured."

  With a deep breath, suppressing her anger, Sun Xiaoyue said in a trembling voice: "You know now, you..."

  Before she finished speaking, Chen Han had already hung up the phone and walked out, while Nong Yaode also stood up and walked out.

  Looking at Nong Yao De's face, Chen Han also knew that it was definitely because of what Sun Xiao Yue said earlier: "I went to save someone."

  Nong Yaode took a glance at Chen Han, who was walking out with big strides alongside him. This feeling was just like the last time when the superior leaders came to inspect after the flood.

  I'm going to rush to the Municipal Public Security Bureau

  ……………………………

  Even if this hadn't happened, Chen Han would have only chatted with Nong Yaode for half an hour at most. Now he can only rush back to the hospital in a hurry. Nong Yaode's secretary is very capable and while making the call, he also arranged for police from nearby to come and pick up Nong Yaode.

  Chen Han happened to be riding in Nong Jianhua's car on his way back to the hospital. Nong Jianhua was driving an Audi A6.

  Nong Jianhua had just started from the underground garage when Chen Han patted Nong Jianhua's shoulder: "Let me take over".

  Nong Jianhua hastily stopped the car and sat in the passenger seat, while Chen Han quickly took the driver's seat.

  It's been a long time since I drove, Chen Han slightly closed his eyes, his right hand moved, the car made a loud noise, the wheels spun rapidly and rubbed against the ground violently, just this one move, scared Nong Jianhua.

  The next moment, the car rushed out directly at an ultra-fast speed, and a strong push-back feeling pushed Nong Jianhua against the back of the chair, as if he was being pressed there by someone.

  The car sped out and quickly merged into traffic, with Chen Han driving as if performing a stunt in a movie.

  If Nong Jianhua needed nearly 40 minutes to drive, Chen Han drove for only 13 minutes. Chen Han drove directly into the emergency room courtyard, and Nong Jianhua got out of the passenger seat, swaying twice before hastily holding onto the car.

  "Wow......" The wine I just drank and a bit of something in my stomach all came up.
