Chapter 682: Questioning the Future Matriarch (3)

Wei Qirui’s attitude did not change. He continued to treat Jian Yiling with disdain and disrespect.

In the presence of Zhai Yunsheng, he already dared to speak to Jian Yiling in such a way.

If Zhai Yunsheng wasn’t here, god knows what his attitude would become.

With the help of the Zhai family, the Wei family’s business developed rapidly in the past few years. As their family became more powerful, this allowed Wei Qirui’s words to have more confidence.

“Wait a minute, Miss Yiling, are you Dr. F.S?”

The old man with a slightly fat body asked Jian Yiling in a surprised voice.

Upon hearing these words, everyone looked at the old man with puzzled eyes. Even Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng were confused.

“You mean, she’s Dr. F.S?” the middle-aged woman asked with a surprised voice.

Although none of them specialized in the medical field, they had all heard of this well known surgeon.

After all, no one could live without a doctor.

The man replied: “Yeah, that’s her. A news article just came out. The article said that Jian Yiling is Dr. F.S. Furthermore, her picture is in the article as well.”

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly went online to find the corresponding news report.

Sure enough, the article clearly stated the relationship between Jian Yiling and Dr. F.S.

Furthermore, the article gave a lot of supporting evidence as well.

When Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling read this, they knew that the incident that day was still leaked out.

The only people who could have done this was Wen Ruo or her boyfriend, Zhu Zimo.

As the Wen family was Jian Yiling’s relatives, Zhai Yunsheng couldn’t use extreme measures to make them shut up. After all, he had to consider Jian Yiling’s feelings.

The relationship between Jian Yiling and the Wen family restricted Zhai Yunsheng’s actions.

However, it seemed as though the relationship did not mean much to the Wen family. Either Wen Ruo or her boyfriend still betrayed Jian Yiling.

The way they looked at Jian Yiling changed.

“Miss Yiling, are you actually Dr. F.S?” the old man asked Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling admitted: “Yes, I am.”

However, Wei Qirui questioned this: “Did you make this news up?”

However, before Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng responded, someone else already denied Wei Qirui’s speculation.

“That’s impossible. If you make up this news, it will be really easily countered by evidence. Therefore, there is no reason for her to make up this news.”

If she really wanted to become the matriarch of the Zhai family, she could pick any other identity. It would be much more effective and not as easily countered. She would definitely not pick Dr. F.S’s identity.

However, Wei Qirui was still unconvinced: “Even if Miss Yiling is Dr. F.S, that only proves that she’s a good doctor. It isn’t necessarily related to whether or not she’s qualified to become the matriarch of the Zhai family.”

“That’s not true. The two things are definitely related,” the old man replied. “She uses a scalpel to save hundreds of lives. That means that she’s not a cowardly and incompetent person.”

However, being a doctor was not much help in becoming the matriarch of the Zhai family directly.

But it was still related in some aspects.

A person who dared to hold a scalpel essentially saved people from the grim reaper. Therefore, how could she possibly be a timid and weak person?

A timid and weak person would not be able to carry the lives of others on their shoulders.

However, the old man still said to Zhai Yunsheng: “But the matter regarding the matriarch still has to be evaluated. Please allow us sometime to think this through.”

As of now, they still knew too little information.

Therefore, they needed more information to convince them to call Jian Yiling their matriarch.
