Even Chu Lian was feeling some sympathy for Miaozhen by this point, so He Changqi had it even worse.
Madam Zou caught sight of the heartache and guilt that flashed across his expression. Even as she showed a frown on her face, a perverted sense of enjoyment rose in her heart.
Miaozhen’s tragic wails could be heard in the parlour from time to time, causing everyone’s expressions to sink.
Even though Chu Lian had ways to absolve herself from suspicion, this wasn’t a good time to speak.
It was right at this time that Great Doctor Miao, who had been acting as a bystander, picked up his medicine box and walked to the middle of the parlour.
He stroked his white beard and said with a wide smile, “What’s wrong, why are you all fretting so? Matriarch, so much worrying isn’t good for your health! Isn’t it just a child? Who said the child is beyond saving?”
His casual words downplayed the situation and shocked everyone to the core!
Matriarch He and Countess Jing’an were so surprised that they leapt out of their seats.
They stared at him with disbelief, as if he had just spoken in gibberish.
“What did you just say? The child can still be saved?” Countess Jing’an asked in a soft voice.
Before Great Doctor Miao could nod, Doctor Qian retorted aggressively, “You old fogey, what kind of nonsense are you spouting? I took Miss Miaozhen’s pulse myself, her child is already dead in her womb!”
“Exactly! How is that even possible? Miaozhen bled so much!” Madam Zou couldn’t bear it any longer. Fear and alarm warred within her heart; if Miaozhen’s child could actually be saved, wouldn’t all her efforts go to waste?
As she spoke, she kept shooting signals at Doctor Qian with her eyes.
The smirk on Great Doctor Miao’s eyes deepened as he took in the expressions of every person in the parlour.
“You wouldn’t let me take a look earlier. Well, now that you’ve all determined that the child has perished, what harm is there in letting me do it now? It’s not like things can get any worse.”
Great Doctor Miao’s words couldn’t get any more blunt, but everything he had said was true!
They had already accepted the worst possible outcome. If he managed to save the baby, wouldn’t it be an unexpected surprise?
They weren’t stupid, so He Changqi immediately said, “Lead Great Doctor Miao in.”
A senior servant immediately led Great Doctor Miao into the inner room.
Chu Lian hadn’t thought that Great Doctor Miao still had something up his sleeves at such a crucial time.
As Great Doctor Miao entered the room, Madam Zou and Doctor Qian’s expressions turned a little strange.
