Chapter 687 A big tree attracts the wind
“I’m sure. Wang Yang even called me tonight to tell me that I’m off this week, and it’s Xia’s turn next week. He mainly thought that I haven’t had a holiday in a long time and wanted me to go back and see my dad.”

After thinking for a moment, he realized that given Lin Tongtong's relationship with Xiao Xuan, it wasn't impossible for Wang Yang to prioritize him.

"Alright, I have to remind you, Wang Yang is very shrewd, you must not let your guard down. Take action whenever you have the chance, but make sure you are safe first."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan was deeply moved.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, I will definitely help you avenge this!"

Wang Dadong patted him on the shoulder: "Don't say that. I'm already very grateful that you did all this for me, disrupting his clinic. As for whether we can get revenge, that's up to fate."

Despite saying this, he knew in his heart that what he really wanted to do was to make Wang Yang lose everything, just like he had lost his son.

"You know what Wang Yang did to my son. He drove him to his death. He was my only precious son, and now I don't know who to hand over this huge company to. Xiao Xuan, if you really want to work for me in the future, become my godson!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan suddenly raised his head. Did that mean he would be able to take over Wang Dadong's company in the future?

"Mr. Wang, please don't say that. What have I done to deserve this? I'm just an ordinary person. How could I possibly be qualified to be your son? That's just wishful thinking."

“Xiao Xuan, don’t say that. I’ve known you since you were little and have always supported you. I’ve never asked you to do anything for me. I just thought you were a promising child and believed that you would definitely amount to something in the future. Now it seems that’s true.”

But Xiao Xuan didn't really think that way. Wang Dadong had sponsored him with the hope that he would get into a good university and then help out at his company. But unexpectedly, he only got into an ordinary university and couldn't find a job afterward, so he couldn't get into Wang Dadong's company either.

Just when he thought Wang Dadong was going to give up on him, Wang Dadong suddenly found him and asked him to do this.

"Xiao Xuan, don't underestimate yourself. My judgment of people is never wrong. You definitely have a bright future. First, help me get this done, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Xiao Xuan nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, I will definitely help you get this done."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should head back now. I've already transferred 5 yuan to your account. Take your dad out for a good time this week!"

Xiao Xuan looked at him with gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Wang."

After Xiao Xuan turned and left, Wang Dadong narrowed his eyes slightly. He had to make good use of this person; after all, he had raised him for over 20 years and hadn't yet put him to good use.

People like him are grateful for even the smallest favors.

After Xiao Xuan left, Wang Dadong's assistant came in.

"Mr. Wang, everything over there has been arranged. How's Xiao Xuan doing?"

"It still didn't work. Last time was the best opportunity. That medicine could paralyze someone on one side, but the old man was lucky and only took a little bit. Moreover, they didn't hold the clinic responsible and didn't make a big fuss about it."

The assistant thought for a moment and said, "Should we fan the flames and make things bigger?"

"No need. The parties involved don't want to pursue this matter. If we get involved, Wang Yang will definitely become suspicious. If he investigates, he'll find out that we're the ones pulling the strings behind the scenes. That's too risky."

If he could really do that, he wouldn't need his assistant to remind him; he could make it trend on social media the day after the incident.

"So what should we do next? Should we continue to rely on Xiao Xuan?"

“He’s at Wang Yang’s clinic now, so we can only rely on him. But we need to plan this carefully, since Wang Yang and his men are definitely on high alert now.”

Although they haven't suspected Xiao Xuan yet, they might suspect him at any time.

"Could it be that Xiao Xuan has been suspected? After all, he's the newest person to the clinic, while the previous two were both veterans!"

"Probably not yet. After all, he has this relationship with Lin Tongtong, so Wang Yang wouldn't easily suspect him."

"How about this, let's just shift the blame onto someone else. There are a few women in their clinic, aren't there? Although that father and daughter have a good relationship with Wang Yang, they don't really know him completely."
The assistant had already thoroughly investigated the father and daughter's background before they came to the clinic, and the situation was quite complicated. Therefore, if they could stir things up, there might be an opportunity.

"So what are your plans? Do you have any specific plans?"

"I've thought about it, and the best way is to shift the blame to the father and daughter, since they are the ones who have the most opportunity to come into contact with the medicinal herbs."

Compared to Xiao Xuan, the two of them were truly outsiders.

"Then let's proceed according to your plan!"

The week passed uneventfully, but Wang Yang always felt a sense of calm before the storm, and a vague unease settled in his heart.

He knew that whoever was behind this wouldn't let him off easily. The reason they hadn't made a move yet was probably because they knew he was on high alert.

That morning, Wang Yang arrived at the clinic, only to find Wang Yunyi there unexpectedly.

"Why are you here? Are you not feeling well? You could have just given me a call."

"No, I have something to tell you."

Wang Yang nodded: "Let's go up and talk!"

He knew that Wang Yunyi usually wouldn't come to the store to see him directly; she would usually call. Since she had come, it must be something important.

"Has something happened at your shop recently? I heard from Ye Xue'er that the clinic was closed for a day, and it seems like one person is missing."

"Nothing serious happened, just a minor problem, but it's been resolved. I'm planning to give employees a few days off each month, and it's already being implemented. Xiao Xuan can go home and rest."

Hearing Wang Yang say this, Wang Yunyi looked at him with a face full of suspicion: "I don't believe a word you said. I don't believe that your troubles have been completely resolved."

"You really can't hide anything from me. I have indeed run into some trouble, but I have no clue what to do right now. I can only wait for the other party to make another move."

Wang Yunyi guessed, "Is someone deliberately targeting your clinic? Do you know who did it?"

"Saying it was targeted is too mild; the other party probably wanted to shut down my clinic. He put something else in the medicine, and then tampered with it again, but I discovered it the second time."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xue'er immediately understood why Wang Yang had closed the clinic for a day. Tampering with medicinal herbs was a grave matter, as herbs could both save and harm lives.

"Nothing serious happened, right?"

"No, I'm lucky. And that family didn't cause any trouble. Right now, only a few of us know about this; the outside world is unaware."

Wang Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that if this matter got out, the clinic's reputation would be severely affected.

"Who is behind this?"

"I don't know either. Maybe I offended someone unintentionally, but I don't even know it myself."

Wang Yunyi guessed, "Is this related to Xiao Xuan, which is why you didn't let him come to work? Is the 'rest system' thing just an excuse to lie to him?"

“You really know me. It’s true that he’s involved. But we don’t have any concrete evidence yet. However, we’ve reviewed the surveillance footage. Every time there was a problem with the herbs, he would be there talking to Xia.” Because he’s tall, Xia has to look up to talk to him. Perhaps he took advantage of that time to tamper with the herbs in Xia’s blind spot.

"Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case. He's Lin Tongtong's distant cousin. With that family relationship, how could he possibly help outsiders against you?"

“At first I thought it might be that their family had a grudge against us, but I asked them and they said no. So they were probably acting under someone else’s orders.”

Wang Yunyi frowned; she hadn't expected the matter to be so troublesome.

Do you have a lot of security cameras installed in your store?

"We already had enough installed before, and now we've added several more, so it's almost like we have no blind spots in our surveillance. You can rest assured!"

Wang Yunyi nodded: "By the way, why didn't I see Xiao Jiang when I came in? Wasn't he always in your clinic?"

“He hasn’t come to the clinic lately. I thought you sent him out on some errands.”

"No, I've been abroad for a while now, and I wouldn't have asked him to do anything before I left the country. So where did he go?"

Wang Yang shook his head, indicating he didn't know. This made Wang Yunyi begin to suspect that this matter might be related to Xiao Jiang.

“I don’t think this has anything to do with him. He would never do such a thing.”

"Of course I know, I just find it strange that he suddenly stopped coming. I'll call him later."

Wang Yunyi had told Xiao Jiang several times before that he should stay at the clinic and protect Wang Yang.

It was precisely because of Wang Yang's fame and high profile that he was likely to attract jealousy. If Xiao Jiang had been at the clinic, things might not have escalated to this point.
So what are your plans for the future?

Wang Yang shook his head helplessly: "I'm just waiting for them to make another move. If they keep holding back, I won't be able to get any evidence or find out who's behind it all."

"But I think they're getting impatient and ready to act. They failed to defeat me in two attempts, so they'll definitely come up with another plan."

Wang Yunyi also looked worried. Her company had been very busy lately, and she was finding it difficult to find the time to help Wang Yang.

"Here's what we'll do: I'll send a few more people over to help you. Have them guard the area around the clinic. If anyone comes to cause trouble, they can hold them off for a while."

"Okay, but don't let them stay inside the clinic, lest the patients be frightened and think something has happened. Let them patrol outside."

Wang Yunyi nodded in agreement, "You need to be careful too. By the way, I heard Lin Tongtong became the general manager. How's she adjusting?"

“I think she’s adapting quite well. I was worried she wouldn’t be able to handle it and was thinking of having her ask you for advice, but she’s doing a great job.”

Seeing Wang Yang's happy face, Wang Yunyi was happy for him, but also felt a little disappointed.

"Okay, I'll be going now. Call me if you need anything."

Wang Yang escorted her to the door, then turned and went back into the clinic.

He called Xia over: "Do you know where Xiao Jiang has been all this time?"

“I don’t know. He didn’t tell me. He just said he had something to do and had to go out, but he hasn’t come back. I called him but he didn’t answer. He just sent me a message telling me not to worry.”

Wang Yang nodded; this was indeed a bit strange. Xiao Jiang used to always let him know where she was going, there was no reason for her to be gone for so long.

He couldn't help but think of the tattoo on Xiao Jiang's body again. Could it be related to this? Although he used to be Wang Yunyi's man, he might still be involved with other people.

Thinking about this, Wang Yang couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. These things were piling up one after another, so complicated and intertwined that he didn't know where to even begin to solve them.

Two days later, Xiao Xuan returned. After returning, he carefully observed everyone's attitude towards him and, finding no change, breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, after hearing what Wang Dadong said that day, he also had some doubts. Was it because Wang Yang really suspected him that he deliberately gave him a day off?

Now that he knows that's not the case, he plans to continue working hard, but he's also looking for opportunities.

"Young man, why is it taking longer and longer to dispense medicine at your clinic? Is it even going to be done properly?"

"I'm sorry, sir, our clinic has a very strict dispensing procedure. We're just afraid of dispensing the wrong medicine, so the process is a bit slow. Please be patient and wait a little longer!"

The old man waved his hand impatiently: "Fine, fine, go and urge them on!"

Xiao Xuan immediately ran upstairs, urging Xia Xia to hurry up.

"Xia, the patients downstairs are all urging us to get their medicine. Why is it taking so long? Can I help you?"

"No need. There was a mistake with the medicinal herbs last time, so we have to be extra careful this time."

He saw that Xia had already prepared a dose of medicine and was about to reach out to take it.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xia immediately dodged away after seeing his movement.

"Wait a minute, I just remembered that there's one ingredient left in this medicine, and it seems like we don't have any left in the warehouse."

"Then I'll go get it for you!"

Halfway there, Xiao Xuan suddenly felt something was wrong. The medicinal herbs were all full; there couldn't possibly be none. He had checked them this morning.

Did Xia deliberately send him away? Thinking of this, he secretly ran back.

He noticed that Xia had already finished preparing the medicine and left it aside, so why wouldn't he take it?
He then carefully observed Xia from behind and discovered that Xia's speed in preparing the medicine hadn't actually slowed down. With his talent, it was impossible for him to misidentify the herbs; there was no need for him to be as meticulous as they claimed.

He can only dispense medicine faster than before, not slower. So why is everyone complaining that dispensing medicine is getting slower and slower? What's going on?

Wang Yang suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.

What are you doing standing here, spacing out?

"No, I just came downstairs. Xia told me that one of the medicinal herbs was missing, and I said I would go find it for him, but I forgot which one he was talking about halfway there."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "You kid, have you been staying up too late at night? Is your memory getting worse? You should go upstairs and ask him. The guests downstairs are all urging you to come back!"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

When he ran upstairs, making a clattering sound, Xia had already brought down all the medicinal herbs.
