This Doctor Is Too Wealthy-Chapter 756 - 590 I don’t really believe them

Du Heng was very clear in his thoughts. Regardless of whether Guan Bo genuinely had a mental illness or was feigning it, as long as the other party did not inform him to cancel the competition, he resolved to appear at Luqi.

Considering the online public opinion and Zhuo Mingde's actions, this was no longer a matter of mere personal success or failure; he could not afford to feign magnanimity.

If Guan Bo was genuinely ill, Du Heng could not handle this matter using the same approach he had taken with Zhang Dewen yesterday. Someone needed to step forward and clarify the true situation.

Regarding yesterday's incident with Zhang Dewen, there was no aggressive confrontation in the end. It was an issue between them and hadn't become public knowledge. Besides, Director He and his group, as well as Li Qin and a few others, had been present.

Even if someone from Director He's side attempted to distort the facts, Li Qin and her companions would be there to speak up for him.

Therefore, there was no need to relentlessly pressure the old man into saying the word "sorry" to his face.

However, Guan Bo's situation was different.

Guan Bo had caused a commotion at the airport and then posted the video online himself. In the video, his words forcing Du Heng to accept the challenge were clearly visible. If no one took responsibility for this, Du Heng doubted he could secure a favorable outcome for himself against the backdrop of the 'National Medical Master' title, even with millions of fans.

Moreover, he had encountered Zhang Dewen earlier today, but Zhang Dewen hadn't said anything. To Du Heng, this was a signal that the competition would proceed as scheduled.

But could Zhang Dewen be unaware of Guan Bo's condition? Of course, he knew. So why hadn't he mentioned anything?

Zhang Dewen's junior was also puzzled by this. In fact, he pondered it all the way back, until Zhang Dewen was almost home. Only then did he finally ask, "Teacher, what about tomorrow's competition between Du Heng and Guan?"

Upon hearing his junior's words, Zhang Dewen's unfocused gaze slowly sharpened; it was unclear what he had been contemplating just moments before.

Then, he slowly said, "Sigh, this matter has been on the tip of my tongue all day, but whenever it came to a critical moment, I forgot to mention it."

He paused slightly, thought for a moment, then said, "Never mind, you don't need to concern yourself with it. I'll go back and discuss it with the hospital leaders before deciding." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The junior looked slightly displeased.

Even now, in Zhang Dewen's eyes, he was still an outsider.

But he concealed it well, merely lowering his head and murmuring an acknowledgment.

After seeing Zhang Dewen off, the junior also returned to his rented apartment. He had barely stepped inside when his phone rang—it was Zhang Dewen.

Listening to Zhang Dewen's instructions over the phone, his expression turned grim.

When Zhang Dewen hung up, the junior could no longer contain his anger and, in a fit of rage, smashed his mobile phone.

"When it comes to discussing important matters, I'm treated as an outsider. But now, to inform Du Heng that the competition is canceled, he suddenly remembers I'm Guan Bo's junior, suddenly I'm one of his own people!"

The junior was fuming, which startled Doctor Luo, who was busy in the kitchen. Doctor Luo quickly came out to see what was wrong. "Why are you so furious?"

Visibly fuming, the junior sat down and recounted what had just happened. "Why should I be the one to tell him? I'm not a doctor at their hospital. Why should I be tasked with such an embarrassing errand?"

Doctor Luo wiped his hands on his apron and slowly sat down beside the junior. "I don't think you need to be this upset."

The junior's face was flushed with anger. He stared intently at Doctor Luo. "When there's something good, he doesn't consider me one of his own. But for a demeaning task like this, suddenly he remembers me. How can I not be angry?"

Doctor Luo maintained a calm demeanor and said gently, "It's just relaying a message; it's not like it will cost you anything. Besides, the main person involved in this affair is Guan Bo, not you. Why are you getting so worked up?"

The junior narrowed his eyes and said in a low, serious tone, "Do you think that's what I'm angry about? I'm angry because the old man clearly doesn't consider me one of his own."

A smile touched Doctor Luo's lips. "In that case, you have even less reason to be angry."

"Why?"

"Think about it. When the old man was working at the hospital, who helped him manage hospital affairs?"

The junior frowned. "That was Guan Bo. He was the Teacher's student and a doctor at the hospital, so it was very convenient for him to act as the Teacher's assistant there."

"What about now?"

"What do you mean?" the junior inquired thoughtfully.

"Ah, you're too caught up in it to see clearly." Doctor Luo chuckled. "Guan Bo has lost his senses and developed a mental illness. The old man is getting on in years, yet he still has to work at the hospital; he'll definitely need an assistant.

Among the old man's students, apart from you—who doesn't have a job yet and is relatively free—all the others have already taken up their operations, scattered across different hospitals.

And among his students here in Luqi, they're all either Deputy Directors or chief doctors. Which of them would be willing to humble themselves to become the old man's assistant?"

The junior's eyes suddenly lit up, and the anger in his heart naturally subsided.

"So, right now, the only one who can replace Guan Bo as the hospital assistant is you." Doctor Luo gently patted the junior's thigh, then stood up and headed towards the kitchen. "Seize this opportunity. Not only can you inherit the old man's academic legacy, but you can also resolve your job situation.

Now tell me, do you still need to be angry?"

The junior leaned back, and a slow smile spread across his lips.

He understood now. He would accept this task. However, he wouldn't inform Du Heng right away.

He vividly remembered Du Heng's contemptuous questioning of him in the hospital room that afternoon.
