Chapter 437: Did I Overact?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation

The silly puppy thought to himself, This is so tough! Wife, I wish I could just tell you the answer, but I cant.

Liu s.h.i.+mei had no idea he was screaming inside. She continued to explain, I think its possible that its them, but the likelihood is somewhat low.

It was because she had already reached an agreement with Liu Fuyun. She would help Liu Yaner, but Liu Fuyun had to reinvestigate the cause of Liu Quans death.

In this situation, Liu Fuyun could not possibly not warn Madam Zhang, telling her absolutely not to provoke her, so that both sides could coexist peacefully.

Madam Zhang might not tolerate other things, but this matter was about whether Liu Yaner could become the Crown Princess. Therefore, Madam Zhang had to endure it!

Ah? Could it be Miao Longzi? Huangfu Lingyao could not wait to ask Is it a business rival?

But he still could not skip this step; a fool couldnt easily grasp this!

Liu s.h.i.+mei said, I think this possibility is the lowest. Our dispute with the Miao siblings is just a war of words, not much enmity. Even if we were to a.s.sume the worst intentions of others, its possible, but I dont think its the right time now.

If Miao Linglongs plot against her were revealed, the hat of the alternative Crown Princess would surely be finished, just like Yu Wanqing!

If Miao Linglong wanted to harm someone, why not go after Liu Yaner or Zhang Miaozhen? Why bother with her?

So, that leaves us with compet.i.tors, right? Darling, what exactly are compet.i.tors? Huangfu Lingyao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He had finally arrived here with patient guidance!

In truth, he really wanted to say: Dont underestimate Miao Linglong. From what I know of her, she can be quite petty, and shes willing to harm others over a mere verbal dispute!

However, he decided against it, not wanting to digress from the main topic.

This time, Liu s.h.i.+meis silence lasted a bit longer.

When it came to compet.i.tors, there was no need for personal animosity. As long as it obstructed the interests of the other party, action could be taken.

The publicity for Fusheng Pavilions grand opening was almost at a bombarding, carpet-bombing level. It was bound to attract envy from compet.i.tors. It was very likely that they might try to strangle her in her infancy, before she could rise to prominence.

Wife? Not hearing Liu s.h.i.+meis response, Huangfu Lingyao began to get a bit anxious. He wondered, Did I overact, or was I too clever? Does she suspect me?

His voice brought her back to reality. Liu s.h.i.+mei then spoke, Compet.i.tors are simply others in the same profession. We all run medical clinics. They fear that I might absorb all the patients, causing a sharp drop in their future income.

The healthcare industry in modern times was considered a service industry, and doctors had always had a responsibility to save lives and heal the injured. However, doctors were also human and needed to eat. They couldnt be deified, thinking they should live in poverty and serve the people.

So, profitability was inevitable. And profitability mainly came from selling medicines!

Without patients, who would buy the medicine?

She briefly explained this relations.h.i.+p to Huangfu Lingyao before continuing, Before we opened our clinic, I had Shu Jun compile a list of all the medical halls and pharmacies, large and small, in the Imperial Capital, including their branches. There are a total of 16, and ours is the 17th. Fusheng Pavilion is quite large in scale. Those with smaller establishments wont be able to compete with me. They cant match my capital, nor can they match my background and status.

Huangfu Lingyao followed her line of thought and asked, Wife, do you suspect the place where you used to work. what was it called again? Do you suspect them?
