Stealing Your Heart

Chapter 847

Afraid that she might not understand it, Shen Peichuan explained it to her.

This was one of the cases that happened while he was working outstation. The one who reported it was a family member of the deceased.

The victim died because he had taken fake medication, and he was delayed from undergoing the appropriate treatment.

When his family member found his medication, they realized they could not find the pharmaceutical company labeled on the packaging. Hence, they went to the officials only to find out the medication was a scam.

That was why they had made a police report.

Instead of alerting the man, the police secretly investigated the case. Some of the officers even disguised as patients and visited the doctor. They found out that most of the prescribed medication were fake. Although they were harmless to the body, they were unable to treat any illnesses.

These criminals were taking advantage of the stingy people who would rather buy cheaper medication.

But one could haggle over anything but medication.

“He isn’t a quack doctor because he’s not even a doctor. He faked every qualification he has and made his own medication with cheap materials. They won’t hurt anyone, but they won’t fix the illnesses either. We’ve found out that many of these medications have entered the market and are in drug stores now. However, we’ve destroyed the factory manufacturing these medications, and we’ve arrested those involved.”

“Will they be executed?” Sang Yu asked.

She hoped they would be executed.

Shen Peichuan replied, “There’s a department specializing in cases like this. The court will decide their final punishment, but they’ll definitely go to prison.”

Sang Yu thought, They’re letting them go too easily. What about those who were hurt by the fake medication?

That man who had looked for Shen Peichuan earlier had been the one handling the case files.

“Sang Yu, I still have some things to attend to. I’ll ask for someone to send you home and bring the medication you’ve taken back here. I’ll need them for lab testing…”

“Do you think that what I’ve taken is fake too?” Sang Yu widened her eyes. If Shen Peichuan is right and they’re fake, then…

Shen Peichuan had been hoping that the medication she took was harmless to the body, but if she had taken a placebo, then her baby would be safe.

Jumping to her feet, she yelled, “I’ll go home right away!”

Shen Peichuan frowned. “Slow down.”

Realizing that she was too agitated, Sang Yu pulled at her hair. “I’ll be more careful next time.”

“Chief Shen, the higher-ups are here at the meeting room,” Chen informed upon entering the room. Shen Peichuan replied, “I got it.”

He picked up the cap from the table and informed Sang Yu, “Wait outside. Someone will send you home.”

Sang Yu nodded. Just as she was about to run out, she recalled Shen Peichuan reminding her to be more careful. Hence, she slowly walked out instead.

Half an hour later, Sang Yu returned with the medication from home. The officer that Shen Peichuan had assigned to her then took it to the lab for testing.

Meanwhile, Sang Yu stayed in the waiting room.

Two hours later, the results came back. The lab technician handed her the papers as he explained to her the results. Visibly, Sang Yu’s expression changed from anxious to relaxed.

She now had a relieved smile on her lips.

When she went back to Shen Peichuan’s office with the lab results, she found the room empty. He was not back yet, so she sat on the couch, waiting for him.

A long while later, someone pushed open the door to the room. Sang Yu turned around to see it was Shen Peichuan. Quickly jogging to him, she wrapped her arms around his neck. Excitement had overtaken her mind, and she forgot where they were at. Raising her head, she kissed him and exclaimed, “It’s fake! The meds are fake. It’s made with starch, and it’s completely harmless.”

Instead of verbally answering her, Shen Peichuan smiled at her.

Soon, she realized he was not the only one around. Behind him was a crowd staring at her.

The realization struck her like a bolt of lightning. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

In a blink of an eye, her face was flushed red, and so was her neck.

Did everyone see what I just did?

This is too awkward!

Sang Yu wished the floor would open up and take her at that moment. What are they going to see me as now?

This is too immature! I even did it in front of Shen Peichuan’s subordinates.

Ah!

Sang Yu badly wished that she could turn back the time.

Right then, Shen Peichuan uttered, “My wife took the fake medication from the earlier case too. I asked her to test the medication at the lab, and the results came out. It turns out to be harmless, so she’s too thrilled about it. Sorry for the scene.”

Sang Yu hung her head, too embarrassed to look at them.

“We saw nothing,” one of them voiced out.

Then, the others added, “We’ve got tired eyes today. We saw nothing.”

Although they were nice about it, Sang Yu still felt embarrassed. She whispered, “I’ll take my leave first.”

Before Shen Peichuan could reply to her, she left.

The moment she stepped out of the office, some started teasing Shen Peichuan. “Oh my, I thought Chief Shen has the emotional range of a wooden block. I’m surprised you’re quite affectionate in your private life.”

Shen Peichuan snapped his head around to look at the man.

The man quickly flashed a polite smile. “Chief Shen, are you angry?”

“Chief Shen isn’t that petty. All you saw was his wife kissing him. What’s wrong with that? It’s not as if you all saw him in bed. Why are you all so excited?”

“Do you have too much free time?” Shen Peichuan continued to stare at the man who spoke earlier. “You’ll be the one in charge of the new case. Wrap it up in a month.”

The man was speechless.

“You’re doing this as revenge!”

Taking off his cap, Shen Peichuan placed it on the table and sat on his chair. “So what if I am? What can you do about it?”
