Bab 218: 217 cannot be allowed to leave alive

"On one hand you look down on women, on the other you want my skills without having to ask me; how exactly does that aggrieve you?" Zhang Xiaoying sneered, "I aim to be famous throughout the world, and I certainly do not need you to give me any opportunities!"

Luo Donglin, red with shame and anger, retorted, "If the medical community of Xinglin does not recognize you, who would dare to trust you? Doctor Zhang, do not underestimate the Pei Family's influence in Xinglin."

"Have you forgotten that the Pei Family's young are apprenticing under me? What does your Luo Family amount to in front of the Pei Family? Luo Donglin, surely you don't really think that, because I am a village woman, I am completely ignorant?" Zhang Xiaoying said with a smile that was not quite a smile.
