She looked at the other person coldly, "You're simply being hypocritical!"
Yuan Yongkang's expression changed.
Ye Mo at him and said, "Besides, you didn't get no reward at all, did you? I heard that because of this, Ms. Zheng Lingyin and you had a brief affair, and you two spent the night together..."
Ye Mo wasn't making this up; she learned it from 888. Back then, Ms. Zheng Lingyin even offered her body as a condition to get Yuan Yongkang to cover up the matter for her.
Having had a one-night stand, how could Yuan Yongkang bear to keep it a secret?
"Shut up!" Yuan Yongkang angrily interrupted Ye Mo. Ye Mo had said so much before without him getting angry, but as soon as Zheng Lingyin was mentioned, he was like an enraged bull.
" Lingyin is your elder, how could you say such things to slander her?" he accused Ye Mo.
Ye Mo: "..."
Ye Mo remained silent.
"... You call someone who harmed me my elder?" Ye Mo found it unbelievable, thinking that this Doctor Yuan had something wrong with his head. " Doctor Yuan, I think you're quite ill. I've heard your medical skills are quite good. You should take some time to get your head fixed!"
Yuan Yongkang was trembling with rage, his eyes blazing with fury as he looked at Ye Mo.
"And what gives you the right to criticize me?" Ye Mo's smile was mocking. "I thought you were really here to apologize, but it seems I was wrong. You're quite the hypocrite, all show and no substance."
Ye Mo knows exactly where people hurt and deliberately steps on them; Yuan Yongkang almost vomited blood because of her words.
" Miss Ye!"
The old man from the Yuan Family finally couldn't sit still any longer. He bowed and said, "I know Yongkang has wronged you in this matter, and I apologize to you on his behalf..."
Ye Mo could say the most cutting and sarcastic things to Yuan Yongkang, but she found it hard to utter those harsh words to an old man who was nearing the end of his life.
"You're shameless to make your elders apologize to you!" she glared angrily at Yuan Yongkang, accusing him.
Yuan Yongkang: "..."
Ruan Xianyue then spoke up, "Grandpa, I know why you've come, but you should still go back! I can never forgive Yuan Yongkang."
She turned to look at Ye Mo, her eyes slightly red, and whispered, "Because of him, my own daughter was abandoned in a trash can thousands of miles away. If she hadn't been found, she would probably be dead by now!"
Even so, she has suffered a lot to grow up to this day...
"From the age of five or six, she had to do laundry and cook for others. Her adoptive father had a habit of beating people, and she suffered countless beatings from a young age... When she grew older and went to school, her adoptive parents were unwilling to let her attend. She finally managed to get into high school, but because they couldn't afford the tuition, she had to drop out and go to work."
As Ruan Xianyue recounted these events, she couldn't help but choke up, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string, leaving her speechless for a moment.
Ye Mo's hand was held tightly by her. She originally wanted to pull it away, but seeing Ruan Xianyue's tearful face, she twitched her fingers but ultimately did not pull her hand away.
"If she hadn't been deliberately switched, if Yuan Yongkang hadn't covered it up for Zheng Lingyin, how could my biological daughter have suffered so much? She should have been the Ye Family's precious daughter, pampered and cherished as she grew up..."
Ruan Xianyue sobbed uncontrollably, "Therefore, I cannot forgive Yuan Yongkang for what he did, I can never forgive him in this lifetime!"
"... But," the old man from the Yuan Family wanted to say something, but Ye Zhipeng interrupted him directly.
"No forgiveness, that's our family's stance." He said coldly, his face devoid of a smile, looking exceptionally ruthless. "So, old man, you should just give up on that idea..."
His cold gaze fell on Yuan Yongkang, and he said, "From the moment Yuan Yongkang chose to help Zheng Lingyin switch my children, the bond between us was severed."
"..."
Old Master Yuan Family closed his eyes. At that moment, his back looked even more hunched, and he seemed to have aged even more.
"Then, about what happened online..." He hesitated, "Those rumors have spread online, how can Yongkang continue to work as a doctor? Please, have mercy on him this time."
The Yuan Family has been doctors for generations, and in this generation, only Yuan Yongkang Yuan Family the best medical skills. He is the one who upholds the reputation of their Yuan Family. Therefore, once Yuan Yongkang's reputation is ruined, the entire Yuan Family will fall along with him.
This is something that the old man of the Yuan Family absolutely does not want to see.
"I did what happened online," Ye Mo said directly. She chuckled and added, "To be honest, I didn't really do anything. I just shared what Doctor Yuan had done with netizens..."
"If Doctor Yuan is upright and honest, what is there to be afraid of?"
Looking at the old man from the Yuan Family, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him, so old and still having to bow and scrape for the sake of the younger generation. Suddenly, she said, "Mr. Yuan, I've heard that your family has been doctors for generations, is that right?"
Hearing Ye Mo's words, the old man perked up slightly, his expression and tone filled with pride as he said, "Yes, our family has been doctors since my great-great-grandfather's generation. Back then, my grandfather was even a royal physician in the palace, treating the emperor!"
Therefore, all things considered, their family's medical skills have been passed down for hundreds of years, and the lineage is very complete, making them a family with a rich medical heritage.
Tell me, which medical student has the same family background as them? This is what the Yuan Family is most proud of.
It's a pity that their family has a treasure trove of medical talent, but few people are gifted in medicine. Only Yuan Yongkang and one of the youngest members are quite good; the others have studied for decades, but their medical skills are only mediocre.
Now, only Yuan Yongkang is carrying on the name of the Yuan Family.
Thinking of this, Old Master Yuan sighed in his heart.
Ye Mo nodded slightly and continued, "I've heard people say that a doctor should have benevolence, virtue, and righteousness—that is, medical ethics... I'm curious, in your opinion, which is more important, medical skills or medical ethics?"
Without a second thought, the old man replied, "Of course, medical ethics are more important!"
"So, do you think someone who could switch other people's children is a qualified doctor? Do you think he even deserves to be a doctor?" Ye Mo asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the old man's pupils contracted and his whole body trembled.
Ye Mo said calmly, "If Yuan Yongkang could forget his duties and responsibilities as a doctor twenty-three years ago for Zheng Lingyin, then he could also murder for money for Zheng Lingyin in the future..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Yuan Yongkang said, looking deeply insulted. "I would never do such a thing!"
Ye Mo smiled faintly, "Don't you find what you're saying ridiculous? How much credibility can a doctor with such poor character and no medical ethics have?"
"... A person without medical ethics became a doctor, sir," Ye Mo looked seriously at the old man from the Yuan Family, "You should know how terrible this is, right?"
The old man didn't speak, his expression was just blank.
Ye Mo said, "If I were you, and there were such a junior in your family, I would have expelled him from the sect long ago. Otherwise, keeping him around would only make everyone think that your Yuan Family has no medical ethics, ruining a century of reputation in an instant..."
