Chapter 53

Despite Wu Potian's repeated reassurances to Chen Yuemei, telling her to stay calm, she could not help but feel anxious whenever she thought about the current state of the police. After watching Wu Potian get into the police car, she quickly found a phone book in the drawer of the counter, looked up Wang Hu's phone number, and was about to call him.

Just as Chen Yuemei was about to call Wang Hu, Wu Qingsheng, carrying an emergency medical kit, walked into the clinic from outside, muttering angrily to himself, "I wonder which scoundrel made such a prank call, saying there's a No. 135 on Qianjin Street."

When Wu Qingsheng saw that Wu Potian was not at the counter, he looked puzzled and asked Chen Yuemei, "Yuemei! Where's Xiaotian?"

Due to her concern, Chen Yuemei was already flustered when the police took Wu Potian away. Even though Wu Potian had mentioned that someone was targeting them, she did not consider it in that light. However, when she heard Wu Qingsheng's complaint, she immediately connected it to the earlier events and realized that her son's arrest was not a coincidence but a targeted attack on their clinic. With red eyes, she told Wu Qingsheng, "Xiaotian has been taken away by the police, saying he was practicing medicine illegally and that they are going to seal our clinic."

As Chen Yuemei spoke, she thought about the possible hardships Wu Potian might face in the police station and could not help but burst into loud sobs.

When Wu Qingsheng heard that Wu Potian had been taken away by the police, he immediately remembered the police car he had seen earlier. Shocked, he asked Chen Yuemei, "Yuemei! What did you say? Xiaotian was taken away by the police? What's going on? Why did the police take Xiaotian?"

Thinking about the possibility of her son being tortured, Chen Yuemei was in a panic and did not answer Wu Qingsheng's questions, instead crying even harder.

Seeing Chen Yuemei cry even more, Wu Qingsheng was also in a panic and anxiously scolded her, "Cry! Cry! Cry! All you know is to cry! You're driving me crazy! What happened? Tell me quickly!"

A patient sitting nearby, seeing Wu Qingsheng's tense expression, immediately explained, "Doctor Wu! This is what happened. Not long after you left the clinic, a young man came in, saying he had a severe stomachache and asked Doctor Xiaotian to help him. As soon as Doctor Xiaotian helped him to a chair, a group of police rushed in, saying Doctor Xiaotian was practicing medicine illegally and that they were going to seal your clinic."

"Doctor Wu! It's clear that someone is targeting your clinic. I've been coming to your clinic since I was a child. In the past, your father treated me, and now it's you. Your medical skills are better than those of the experts in the hospital, and your fees are lower. We all know whether your clinic is a black clinic or not."

Hearing the entire story from the patient, Wu Qingsheng's head buzzed, his eyebrows stood up, and his face turned red with anger. He shouted, "How dare they! Our family has always been honest and upright, and these bastards are bullying us. I'm going to the police station to confront them."

Seeing her husband preparing to go to the police station, Chen Yuemei finally came back to reality from her sadness. She quickly rushed out of the counter and blocked Wu Qingsheng, asking, "Qingsheng! Where are you going?"

Wu Qingsheng, thinking about how he had always been a peaceful person, felt his anger growing. He shouted at Chen Yuemei, "I'm going to the police station to confront them. Why are you blocking me?"

Chen Yuemei knew her husband's character well. Although he was peaceful, he was very stubborn. If he went to the police station, something would definitely happen. As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials. Even if someone was targeting their clinic, her husband's actions would only result in them suffering.

Facing her husband's anger, Chen Yuemei did not back down. She replied, "Qingsheng! What are you doing? There are so many patients waiting for you. If you go to the police station, what will happen to the patients? Before Potian was taken away, he told me to call Huizi. He said Huizi could help him."

Hearing Chen Yuemei's words, Wu Qingsheng looked at the patients and, after careful consideration, instructed her, "Then why are you still standing there? Call Huizi now."

Chen Yuemei nodded quickly and replied, "Oh! I'll call Huizi right now."

She walked to the counter, picked up the phone, and quickly dialed Wang Hu's phone number.

The call was quickly connected. Before Chen Yuemei could speak, Wang Hu's playful voice came through the phone, "Potian! What's up, calling me at this time?"

"Huizi! It's Auntie! Potian has been taken away by the police, saying he was practicing medicine illegally. He told me to call you," Chen Yuemei immediately informed Wang Hu about Wu Potian's arrest.

"Auntie! What did you say? Potian was taken away by the police? Who took him? Which police station?" Wang Hu, hearing Chen Yuemei's explanation, immediately showed a shocked expression and asked about the identity of the police who took Wu Potian.

Chen Yuemei quickly explained, "The police who took Potian said they were from the Public Security Team. However, it's clear they are framing us. They sent a stooge to see Potian, then said he was practicing medicine illegally. Potian told me to call you before he was taken away."

"Huizi! I don't know who we've offended, but these people have bad intentions. Go to the Public Security Team quickly and make sure they don't torture Potian."

Wang Hu, realizing that the Public Security Team was involved, immediately understood who was behind the frame-up. Thinking about how Xu Guozheng was using such despicable methods to retaliate against Wu Potian, Wang Hu angrily slammed his desk and promised Chen Yuemei, "Auntie! I'm going to the Public Security Team right now to get him. If anyone dares to harm my brother, I'll make sure they pay."

"Huizi! I'm entrusting this to you. Think of a way quickly. If it costs money, no matter how much, do whatever it takes to make sure Potian doesn't suffer." Thinking about the current state of the police, Chen Yuemei was in a panic and repeated her instructions to Wang Hu.

"Auntie! Don't worry. With me around, those bastards won't dare to do anything to Potian." After making this promise to Chen Yuemei, Wang Hu quickly hung up the phone and rushed to the Public Security Team, muttering to himself, "Xu Guozheng! I was planning to deal with you later, but you're forcing my hand. Don't blame me for being ruthless."
