Chapter 499: Chapter 499: The Lawsuit is No Longer Winnable

Xia Xue looked into Zhang Yang’s affectionate gaze, desperately wanting to agree.

But in the end, she still refused, "Zhang Yang, you are injured now, and many of the wounds are quite severe."

"Once your wounds are healed, Sister Yue will let you do as you please, okay?"

Zhang Yang couldn’t help but smile wryly, as these were exactly the words he had just said to Shen Mange—he hadn’t expected Xia Xue to throw them back at him.

Today indeed wasn’t suitable, and Zhang Yang didn’t press the matter.

After the three of them had a late-night snack together, they each went back to their rooms to sleep.

Zhang Yang slept deeply, it seemed that yesterday’s ordeal had indeed taken quite a toll.

It wasn’t until noon the next day that Zhang Yang opened his eyes.

After he got up, he discovered neither Shen Mange nor Xia Xue were anywhere to be seen.

There was a prepared lunch on the table, along with a note left behind.

The note was from Xia Xue, explaining that Shen Mange had something urgent to deal with.

As for Xia Xue, she had returned to her dance studio to manage her own work.

Thus, there was no choice but to leave before Zhang Yang woke up.

Zhang Yang stretched his limbs; naturally, his injuries were not going to heal that fast, but his strength had largely recovered.

After eating lunch, he took out his mobile phone.

He had turned it off when he got home yesterday, knowing well that many people would be looking for him.

Sure enough, as soon as he turned it on, there were over a dozen missed calls and numerous message notifications.

The person who tried to contact him the most was Jiang Meiren.

There were also calls from Liu He and two unknown numbers. Zhang Yang knew that last night’s events were not over yet.

But Zhang Yang was not scared; he had already inquired about it from Liu Zhendong.

According to the rules of the Martial World, every debt has its debtor, and calamity should not touch the innocent family members.

Even if someone wanted revenge, they would target him and not others like Chen Yun.

After a moment of thought, Zhang Yang decided to return Jiang Meiren’s call.

The phone connected after just one ring.

"Zhang Yang, where are you? Can I come see you?"

Hearing Jiang Meiren’s voice, Zhang Yang calmly responded, "It’s okay, I know you’re busy too. I’m calling to ask if the matter with Cheng Yue has been resolved?"

This was something Cheng Yue had previously assured him would be settled, but unexpectedly, things had taken a bad turn.

Jiang Meiren apologized, "Zhang Yang, listen to me. It was indeed resolved—the doctors had already agreed to clear Cheng Yue."

"But, unexpectedly, someone interfered at the last minute. The doctors suddenly changed their statements, even more adamantly than before, firmly attributing slander to Cheng Yue."

Zhang Yang’s expression darkened upon hearing this, "Who was it?"

"Who else could it be? It’s Chen Wenhao. Somehow, he found out your relationship with Cheng Yue isn’t shallow, so he meddled in the matter and even contacted Qi Haili."

"They’re now in cahoots with each other, and I’m afraid the lawsuit for Cheng Yue might be hard to win," Jiang Meiren said, clearly infuriated.

Zhang Yang hadn’t expected it to be that Chen Wenhao again and was naturally very upset.

"It’s truly giving him too much face. Didn’t you say your rules in the Martial World don’t target family members? Yet now he’s shamelessly attacking unrelated individuals," Zhang Yang said angrily.

Jiang Meiren apologized deeply, "Zhang Yang, I’m sorry, I didn’t expect things to turn out this way. Chen Wenhao has completely lost his mind now."

Zhang Yang didn’t entirely blame Jiang Meiren, however.

All of this had started because of him; it was just unfortunate that Cheng Yue got dragged into it.

"Okay, I understand."

When Jiang Meiren heard Zhang Yang speak in such a calm tone, she became anxious, "Zhang Yang, don’t you have anything to say to me?"

Zhang Yang sighed softly, "There’s nothing I want to say. I don’t blame you, so you don’t need to take it to heart."

Zhang Yang really didn’t believe in curses. If Cheng Yue’s issue couldn’t be solved, he wasn’t going to be polite to Chen Wenhao and the others anymore.

But Jiang Meiren felt even more guilty after hearing Zhang Yang’s words.

"Zhang Yang, don’t worry. I won’t let those people off. I’ll give you an explanation," she said.

Zhang Yang shook his head and gave a bitter smile. Hearing what Jiang Meiren had just said, Zhang Yang understood that she might also be feeling helpless.

The two hung up, and Zhang Yang then called Cheng Yue.

"Zhang Yang, what’s wrong?" Cheng Yue’s voice sounded somewhat weary.

Zhang Yang knew that Cheng Yue hadn’t come home last night because she was busy with these matters.

"Sister Yue, I’m sorry for bringing you a bit of trouble."

Then, Zhang Yang told Cheng Yue the whole story of what had happened last night, including the cause and effect.

After listening, Cheng Yue didn’t scold him but asked, "How serious are your injuries?"

Zhang Yang felt touched. Cheng Yue didn’t utter a word of blame but instead cared about his injuries.

"It’s not serious, Sister Yue, but this lawsuit might be difficult to win."

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yue laughed, "Hehe, it’s okay. Even if we lose, what can happen? I’m not depending on this to live."

"It’s just a bit frustrating, that’s all."

Zhang Yang of course knew Cheng Yue was wealthy. Although she couldn’t compare to someone from a wealthy family like Jiang Meiren, Cheng Yue was truly a small wealthy lady.

"Sister Yue, rest assured, I will fight this lawsuit with you."

But unexpectedly, Cheng Yue said, "Originally, I wanted to fight them, but now, I’ve decided not to."

Cheng Yue’s tone suddenly became relaxed.

"Why?" Zhang Yang asked, puzzled.

"Zhang Yang, do you know why I wanted to fight this lawsuit besides just fighting for a breath of air?"

"For what?" Zhang Yang became curious.

"Because the experiment, although it achieved partial success, still has many problems."

"It hasn’t even reached the stage of clinical trials; to put it simply, only the theory has been preliminarily verified."

"But they think it’s already applicable to the surgical stage."

"If they were competent at conducting clinical trials, it would be fine, they could recognize the severity of the issues. But if they jump straight into surgeries, there will definitely be serious problems."

"That’s why I was eager to sue them, but now, these people are shameless and so despicable; let them mess around by themselves."

"If something happens, they can’t blame me."

"It’s just unfortunate for the patients who may go to their hospital in the future, ah, the patients are innocent."

After hearing this, Zhang Yang was enlightened. So that was it.

At that moment, Zhang Yang had a sudden insight.

"Sister Yue, I have a plan that could make them reap what they sow, avoid innocent patients suffering, and ultimately prove your innocence."

Cheng Yue immediately showed interest, "What is it? Hurry, tell me."

"I can’t talk about it now, Sister Yue. I need to understand your experiment a bit more."
