Chapter 197: A Call and a Response

One hour later, the Jiangnan Medical Administration building.

Jiang Feng was escorted by two staff members into Wang Kun's office.

"Stay still! Don't move!"

A staff member gave Jiang Feng a shove, his tone harsh.

"The Director and Old Si will be here soon; be sensible and don't cause trouble!"

Jiang Feng ignored him, walked straight to the sofa and sat down, his expression as calm as if he were at home.

Hua Jing was taken to another lounge and hadn't arrived yet.

Seeing Jiang Feng so composed, the staff felt a bit irritated and wanted to scold him, but a colleague beside him stopped him.

"Don't interfere; we'll speak when the Director arrives."

Jiang Feng leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes to nourish his spirit, and paid them no heed.

The waiting lasted more than half an hour.

During that time no one poured a glass of water, no one asked a word; it was clearly deliberate harassment.

Until the office door was pushed open, Wang Kun and Sikong Tu entered side by side, both wearing smiles of assured victory, as if the outcome were already decided.

"Jiang Feng, sorry to keep you waiting."

Wang Kun walked to the desk, sat down, slapped a stack of documents onto the table with a bang, his gaze cold as he stared at Jiang Feng.

"This is the punishment decision our Jiangnan Medical Administration made after an emergency meeting regarding your Ji Shi Tang; take a look yourself!"

Sikong Tu sat on the adjacent sofa, lifted the tea freshly brewed by the secretary, and took a sip.

Jiang Feng opened his eyes, did not reach for the documents, and gave a casual glance.

Seeing him not look, Wang Kun simply began reading aloud himself.

"After investigation, Ji Shi Tang has engaged in illegal drug manufacturing, regulation‑violating operations, forged documents and other serious violations! The decision now is…"

"First, Ji Shi Tang is suspended for restructuring effective immediately, with an indefinite ban on operations!"

"Second, Jiang Feng's and Hua Jing's medical practice certificates are revoked, and they are barred for life from any medical‑related profession."

"Third, given the severity, we will not rule out legal action against the responsible parties to pursue criminal liability!"

Finishing, Wang Kun tossed the documents to Jiang Feng, with a hint of mockery.

"Sign to confirm! If you sign, you can still argue for leniency!"

Sikong Tu set down his teacup and spoke slowly.

"Jiang Feng, at this point you no longer have the right to negotiate with us. Be sensible and hand over the prescription for the Elixir given to Lu Xiao; I, the old man, can decide…"

"Not only will it restore Ji Shi Tang's operations immediately and return your medical certificates, I can also recommend you to the National Medical Hall! That's the medical palace every doctor in the empire covets; countless people crowd to get in, and this is a once‑in‑a‑lifetime chance!"

Wang Kun echoed beside him, flattering Sikong Tu.

"Jiang Feng, don't be oblivious to the times! With the crimes you've committed, even a few years in prison would be a light sentence! Now Old Si gives you a chance, why aren't you seizing it? Don't wait for us to change our mind; you'll be the one crying!"

The two sang in unison, trying to force Jiang Feng to comply.

But Jiang Feng merely picked up the documents, flipped two pages, then casually tossed them onto the table, ignoring them entirely.

"You!"

Jiang Feng's attitude enraged Wang Kun completely; he pounded the table and stood up.

"Jiang Feng, you truly have no sense of death! We've come this far and you still dare to be arrogant? Believe it or not, I'll lock you up right now and let you taste hardship!"

Sikong Tu also frowned, his complexion darkening.

"Jiang Feng, stop being shameless! How long do you think you can hold out? Without the prescription, you won't get out of this door today!"

Jiang Feng still stared at them coldly, a mocking curl at his mouth, yet said nothing.

He wanted to see just how long these two could remain arrogant.

At that moment, the office door was hurriedly pushed open, and Wang Kun's secretary rushed in, her face showing a hint of panic.

"Director, something's wrong! Su Ruiqing, the Old Master of the Su family in Jiangcheng, called and specifically inquired about Mr. Jiang Feng's situation, even asking why we brought him to the Administration!"

"Su Ruiqing?"

Wang Kun felt a sudden jolt in his heart, and his angry expression froze instantly.

Of course he knew who Su Ruiqing was! Chairman of the Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce, a billionaire tycoon with extensive connections in Jiangcheng, even city officials give him a sliver of respect!

He hadn't expected Jiang Feng to be connected to Old Su!

What surprised him even more was how quickly Su Ruiqing inquired; this proves Jiang Feng is extremely important to Su Ruiqing.

Wang Kun instantly felt some regret; he had acted too hastily earlier, seizing Jiang Feng without fully checking his background.

If he truly offended Old Su, it would bring him no benefit.

But Sikong Tu, upon hearing this, sneered, his tone disdainful.

"Wang Kun, as my student, you gave in so easily?"

"Su Ruiqing, no matter how powerful, is just a rich man; can he stand above the law? The Medical Administration handles cases; it's not his place as a businessman to dictate!"

His words were like a calming pill for Wang Kun, instantly giving him resolve.

Indeed! Su Ruiqing's wealth lets him meddle with the Medical Administration!

Not to mention Su Ruiqing, even Li Kun, the head of the Li Family—one of Jiangcheng's four great clans—would have to bow and scrape himself.

Moreover, he's serving Old Si; what is there to fear?

Wang Kun's panic vanished instantly, and he turned to the secretary, speaking sternly.

"Go back and tell Old Su that Jiang Feng has broken national law; the Medical Administration will handle the case according to law, with no room for leniency! Tell him not to interfere with official business!"

"Yes!"

The secretary, hearing this, dared not ask further and hurried away.

Wang Kun saw Jiang Feng still wearing a confident expression, and a smug cold smile appeared on his face.

"Jiang Feng, don't even think anyone can save you! Even if Su Lao calls, what good would that do? He can't control the affairs of our Medical Administration! Today you either hand over the Prescription or you'll be left to sit in prison and have your medical license revoked!"

Sikong Tu also nodded, looking impatient.

"Know your place, don't force us to get serious! In the end, you'll be the one who suffers!"

Jiang Feng watched their self‑satisfied expressions, said nothing, and just found it somewhat laughable.

At that moment, the Secretary rushed in again in a panic, paler than before, voice trembling.

"Director! No… this is bad! The Old Master of the Huo Family has arrived! He's already downstairs, saying he wants to see you in person!"

"The Old Master of the Huo Family?"

Wang Kun froze for a moment, bewildered, and asked instinctively.

"Which Huo Old Master?"

There are many Huo surnames in Jiangcheng, but the one who can make the Secretary this nervous shouldn't be an ordinary family.

Before he finished speaking, a hoarse and imposing voice came through the office door, thick with anger.

"It is I, Huo Junshan! I came to ask which law Divine Doctor Jiang broke, that lets you, Wang Kun, bully him here?"

"Huo… Huo Junshan?"

Hearing that name, Wang Kun froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

He never imagined that this big boss had actually arrived!
