Old Mr. Pei's expression changed the moment Pei Feng finished his sentence.
He glanced at Fang Chen and Lin Shuwen before his eyes landed on his youngest son again. There was obvious disappointment in his eyes. "Have all your years of medical training gone to waste?"
Pei Feng frowned. Then, he said, "Big Brother said before that some high-level poisons can't be detected through simple tests. What's more, this is a B-grade antidote. We have to try it to know if it's effective or not."
He paused for a few seconds before he added. "Why don't we give the patient a chance instead of waiting helplessly?"
"How dare you say that?" Old Mr. Pei trembled in anger.
If everyone had such a mindset, what was the point of having a doctor?
Pei Feng pursed his lips. Just as he was about to retort, Pei Rong glanced at him and he immediately shut his mouth.
Pei Rong did not expect his younger brother to speak so thoughtlessly. Although what he said made sense, a doctor had to be responsible for their patients. The slightest mistake could lead to a huge mistake.
Pei Rong put the antidote pill back into the bottle before he looked at Lin Shuwen and Fang Chen. "I'm sorry. My father is right. We don't know the cause of the illness, so we shouldn't take the antidote recklessly."
"Young Master Pei, you are being too serious. Second Young Master Pei is only saying this out of concern for Huo Yao's health." Lin Shuwen could not help feeling a little regretful as he watched Pei Rong put the antidote away.
If he had a choice, he would not have taken the antidote carelessly. But now... even if he had to do everything in his power, he felt that he should give it a try.
"Why don't I run another blood test?" said Pei Rong after some thought.
"Sure." Lin Shuwen had no choice but to agree. Although he did not understand what was going on with the antidote, he did not probe further. Instead, he turned to look at Fang Chen and comforted him. "Don't worry. I'm sure there will be a way."
Fang Chen remained unperturbed as though he had already accepted the outcome. His voice was deep and hoarse. "It's fine. Shuwen, go and prepare the car."
Lin Shuwen's eyes widened when he heard that. "How can you do that? You want to give up?"
Fang Chen raised his hand. His eyes landed on the back of his scrawny hand. The shriveled skin looked extremely hideous. He curled his fingers and went silent for a few seconds before he said, "Since things have come to this, there's no need to force things."
"But..." Lin Shuwen wanted to say something, but when he saw the determination in Fang Chen's eyes, he knew that Fang Chen had made up his mind. In the end, he sighed and said, "... I'll go get the car ready."
When Lin Shuwen walked past Old Mr. Pei, Old Mr. Pei called out to him. "Wait a minute. Can you let my little friend try now?"
Old Mr. Pei had been waiting for Pei Rong's diagnosis ever since he entered the room. Since Lin Shuwen insisted on letting Old Mr. Pei treat Huo Yao, Old Mr. Pei had waited patiently until now so as not to offend Little Master Huo.
The moment Lin Shuwen heard Old Mr. Pei's words, he stood rooted to the spot for a second. Then he seemed to recall something and could not help raising his eyes to look at the young woman standing next to Old Mr. Pei. He had been deliberately ignoring her presence all this while.
Even Pei Rong couldn't tell what was going on. Could this young lady do it?
