Cheng You smiled and said, "Of course, I'd like to continue cooperating with Uncle Hai, but it depends on whether Uncle Hai shows sincerity."
"Sincerity?"
Zhang Fuhai stood up. As long as Cheng You had a request, things would be easy to handle.
"I believe you're here not just to see me, but also to find Cheng Tao, right?"
Zhang Fuhai was a smart man. As soon as he heard Cheng You's words, he understood.
"Of course. Otherwise, why would you lead the way for us to talk things through with Cheng Tao?"
Zhao Guoliang was foolish to let Cheng Tao replace Cheng You.
Cheng You clapped her hands and agreed with a smile. She loved watching a good show the most.
Zhang Fuhai didn't really not know where Cheng Tao lived. He just wanted to save face for Cheng You.
"This is the place."
"Cheng You, what are you doing here!" Zhao Lifang walked over aggressively and pushed her away.
Cheng You pointed at Zhang Fuhai and said calmly, "This is Director Zhang from the health center. He's here to see your second sister-in-law."
Zhao Lifang was stunned. Because the health center had come to Cheng Tao to buy medicine, the Zhao family treated Cheng Tao like a treasure.
She certainly knew how much Wang Hongxia valued Cheng Tao now.
"Then... then you can come in."
She opened the door and turned back to glare at Cheng You, saying, "You're not allowed in!"
Cheng You shrugged, "As if I'd care to enter your house."
However, if she didn't go in, Zhang Fuhai clearly had no intention of entering either.
Zhang Fuhai smiled and said, "Since it's inconvenient to go inside, we can talk outside. Please call Cheng Tao out."
Zhao Lifang was worried about offending someone and felt a little uneasy. She quickly ran into the house to call for Cheng Tao.
"Cheng Tao, someone's here to see you. From the health center."
Not only Cheng Tao, but Wang Hongxia also rushed out from inside.
"They must be here to pay!"
It had been so long, and the health center hadn't come to restock or pay.
If Cheng Tao hadn't stopped her, Wang Hongxia would have gone to the health center to ask long ago.
Cheng Tao stopped her with a smile on her lips.
"Mom, don't be so eager. Don't make a spectacle of yourself."
Wang Hongxia smiled happily and wasn't displeased by Cheng Tao's words.
"I'm not anxious, I'm happy."
Cheng Tao's eyes held a hint of pride, and the smile couldn't be hidden.
When she walked out, she saw not only Zhao Guoliang but also Zhang Fuhai!
Especially seeing Cheng You's smiling face, Cheng Tao felt something was wrong.
"Uncle Zhao..."
Zhao Guoliang spat, "Don't call me that. Who the hell is your uncle!"
He was full of resentment, not only because Zhang Fuhai had scolded him but also because Cheng Tao had deceived him.
If she hadn't repeatedly guaranteed that the medicine she sold him was the same as Cheng You's and cheaper, he wouldn't have fallen for it.
The main reason was that seeing Zhang Fuhai making a profit made him unable to resist.
Cheng Tao's face turned pale, and a sense of unease grew in her heart.
"What's going on..." she said with difficulty.
Zhao Guoliang snorted coldly and said nothing.
Then, Zhang Fuhai spoke, "Comrade Cheng Tao, on behalf of the health center, I apologize. Director Zhao misunderstood the situation and unilaterally changed the partner. I have already criticized him. Your medicine will be refunded in full."
Wang Hongxia's face changed drastically, and she said angrily, "How can sold goods be returned?"
Zhao Guoliang retorted, "When she came to me, she guaranteed the effect was the same, but it was useless!"
His words were, of course, an exaggeration. However, compared to the medicine produced by Cheng You, the effect was indeed far inferior.
Cheng Tao trembled with anger, forcing herself to defend, "Impossible. The production process and medicinal ingredients are the same, so how can they be different! Director Zhang, I know you favor Cheng You, but you can't praise one while stepping on the other!"
Yes, they must be lying!
Zhang Fuhai smiled, "I can't exactly cut myself to demonstrate, can I? Believe it or not, we're just here to inform you."
He disdained to argue with Cheng Tao, let alone explain to her.
Cheng Tao's smile was somewhat strained, and she bit her lip fiercely.
"Director Zhang, can we not return this batch of medicine?"
She had spent so much money on medicinal ingredients. If it was returned, wouldn't she lose everything?
Zhang Fuhai shook his head. "The problem is, your medicine is useless to us at the health center."
The words "useless" were like a sharp sword plunged into Cheng Tao's heart.
Cheng You sarcastically said, "The production process and prescriptions that Pan Yu gave you were never a secret. Ask her yourself how many times these prescriptions have been followed, and if the effect is better than mine."
Cheng Tao's vengeful eyes suddenly shot towards Pan Yu.
"You did it on purpose! You knew these were useless, so you gave them to me, just to see me make a fool of myself!"
Pan Yu repeatedly shook her head, unable to refute.
"Sister Cheng Tao, I didn't..."
Cheng You, with her pigtails twisted, chuckled lightly. "You didn't betray me, or did you deceive Cheng Tao? Pan Yu, I told you long ago that doing this would eventually bring about your own downfall."
Pan Yu's eyes welled up with tears, and she looked at Cheng You miserably.
"Sister Cheng You, why are you treating me like this?"
Cheng You snorted coquettishly and turned to look at Zhang Fuhai.
"Uncle Hai, let's go. We have some matters to discuss regarding our future cooperation."
As for what would happen to Cheng Tao next, she didn't want to see it.
Watching the same play too many times became boring.
Zhang Fuhai smiled and agreed, instructing Zhao Guoliang to go back and return Cheng Tao's medicine.
"Oh, right. If any of the medicine has been opened, remember to compensate Cheng Tao for the money."
An expression of embarrassment flickered across Cheng Tao's face. She didn't care about the money for one or two cans of medicine.
But Zhang Fuhai didn't even look at her and left with Cheng You.
He walked behind her with a smile, "Girl, are you satisfied now?"
Cheng You raised an eyebrow. "Satisfied or not, you were in the wrong this time. If it happens again, I really won't cooperate with you."
In Zhang Fuhai's eyes at this moment, she was a god of wealth.
How could he dare to refuse?
"I promise, there won't be a next time."
Cheng You's eyes rolled around a couple of times, and she said, "Uncle Hai, I have two more things I'd like to ask of you. If they are accomplished, I'll privately give you two jars of ginseng pills."
The nourishing ginseng pills were something Cheng You hadn't sold any of, keeping them all for herself.
Zhang Fuhai didn't agree immediately. Instead, he put on a serious face and considered the feasibility of the matter.
"You have to tell me what it is first."
Cheng You said, "Cheng Tao deceived the health center. I want you to hold her accountable."
Zhang Fuhai frowned and looked at her, clearly not in agreement.
"Isn't she your sister?"
"Not a biological one. Didn't you just see that we don't have a good relationship?"
Zhang Fuhai pondered for a moment. That was true.
But Zhao Guoliang was his brother-in-law, and he also had a part in this matter. He didn't want to escalate it.
Cheng You saw his hesitation and said, "Just go through the motions, there's no need to make a big fuss."
