"I think you could try to find Zheng Qiang. Isn’t he Zheng Peng’s brother? He must be able to coax sothing out of him. I believe Zheng Qiang is still quite upright and he will definitely help you," Dean Qian suggested.
In fact, Xiao Yifei had thought about seeking help from Zheng Qiang before, but he felt that it wasn’t quite appropriate. After all, they are blood brothers, and many things lose their significance in the face of family ties. For example, Zheng Qiang’s upright character—while Xiao Yifei doesn’t deny that Zheng Qiang is a good person, he also can’t be sure of what choice Zheng Qiang would make in this situation.
Xiao Yifei had long regarded Zheng Qiang as a friend. He was the only one who helped Xiao Yifei when he first arrived at this hospital. Although they don’t interact much in daily life and seldom chat, Xiao Yifei knows that Zheng Qiang also considers him a friend. As the saying goes, "The friendship of a gentleman is as light as water," and he feels there’s a hint of that between himself and Zheng Qiang.
So he wasn’t willing to trouble Zheng Qiang, because they were friends and he didn’t want to put a friend in a difficult position.
However, if he didn’t seek Zheng Qiang’s help, there seed to be no other way to find evidence against Zheng Peng. Xiao Yifei thought, this is really troubleso. If he had known, he shouldn’t have shown rcy to Zheng Peng in the first place. Back then, he thought Zheng Peng hadn’t caused him much harm, so he didn’t pursue the matter further.
He didn’t expect it to leave him such a big problem. Before, when watching costu dramas, the bad guys would be completely eradicated, implicating even their whole families. Xiao Yifei used to think ancient people were too ruthless, not valuing human lives.
After experiencing this, Xiao Yifei suddenly felt that the actions taken in television were correct. Nothing is more important than one’s life. Who knows what those bad people will do in the future, just like how Zheng Peng is now treating Xiao Yifei. Now, Xiao Yifei regrets having been lenient with Zheng Peng back then.
Xiao Yifei pondered all this on his way back to his office. Clearing his na might seem easy to say but is actually difficult to execute. After all, all the evidence the police found pointed towards Xiao Yifei.
Xiao Yifei recalled the elder from today’s eting. His curiosity was piqued considerably. Although the dean only made a brief comnt about him, Xiao Yifei felt there was more left unsaid, so he entered the na "Hu Jingtang" into his computer.
Baidu Encyclopedia quickly displayed a lot of information: Hu Jingtang, born in Pingyang in September 1950, is a renowned practitioner of Chinese dicine in Huaxia. He once studied abroad in Russia and served as a military physician for three years, making significant contributions to the developnt of Huaxia dicine.
Xiao Yifei carefully continued reading—this person really is remarkable, which is likely why he wasn’t shy in praising himself during today’s eting. Such a doctor is truly impressive!
Xiao Yifei had a sudden impulse to enter his grandfather’s na. Opening the first entry, he found information about soone with the sa na but not about his grandfather. After scrolling through several pages, he finally discovered news about his grandfather. It was a local news article, roughly stating how exceptional a person his grandfather was, akin to the return of a Divine Doctor.
Xiao Yifei felt sowhat unsatisfied. Despite his grandfather’s lifelong dedication to dicine, few rember him or his achievents. A few more years on, and surely those who do will also forget him. How can there be such disparity between people?
Although his grandfather passed away a few years ago, Xiao Yifei often thinks of him, especially when he’s feeling down or his career isn’t going well. Lin Mu just hopes that, in another world, his grandfather can live a bit more easily, think more about himself, and not overwork anymore.
Xiao Yifei’s curiosity about Hu Jingtang deepened further. If he is such an impressive person, why is he content with being just an ordinary doctor in a hospital now? If I get the chance to et him again, I must get to know him better, Xiao Yifei thought to himself.
While Xiao Yifei was lost in thought, the police officer’s call ca through: "What are you doing, daydreaming again?"
Xiao Yifei was startled and hastily glanced around, saying, "Where are you? Have you been monitoring ?" He looked around but didn’t see the attractive policewoman’s figure.
The other side chuckled on the phone, saying, "How could I have that much free ti to monitor you? I just went to the dean’s office and passed by yours, saw you sitting there deep in thought. I waved, but you didn’t notice ."
Hearing this made Xiao Yifei feel a bit embarrassed; he feels a bit on edge lately, on high alert at every little movent, eager to find a way to prove his innocence!
So he said, "When are you free, shall we et up?"
"What’s up, missing after a few days? How about tonight? I’m currently on an assignnt, so it’s a bit inconvenient," ca the reply from the other end.
In the evening, the two agreed to et at a restaurant near the hospital.
On eting, the attractive policewoman said, "Gosh, today exhausted to death, I’ve been busy the whole day, not even had ti to drink water." Saying this, she picked up the glass on the table and took a big gulp, then started looking through the nu.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Xiao Yifei pondered that a person’s character is likely closely tied to their profession. She’s carefree and doesn’t care about her image at all, yet when on a case, she’s very serious, never saying a word she shouldn’t. Now, she’s showing a tough, carefree woman image.
After ordering the food, she finally rembered to ask Xiao Yifei, "You’re probably not looking to just have a al with , are you? So, what’s the matter with you?"
With her straightforwardness, Xiao Yifei directly expressed his intentions: "I’ve been frad in this matter. I want to find evidence to prove my innocence. I know you may find this hard to believe, but this really has nothing to do with ."
"Since it has nothing to do with you, why did you admit it initially? Having such a serious cri pinned on you, you didn’t even make a peep." The attractive policewoman had long felt there was sothing fishy about this case. Although she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was off, she just felt that Xiao Yifei wasn’t the type to do such things.
"Even if you believe , it doesn’t help. All the evidence now points at you. If you want to prove your innocence, it’s really difficult. But whatever assistance you need, I’ll do my best to help." she said. Despite her superiors clearly stating that she shouldn’t have any non-work-related contact with Xiao Yifei, she still spoke up without hesitation, sothing that even she found strange.
"Then let thank you in advance. But I’m currently at a loss, with no idea where to find evidence. The conflict between Zheng Peng and is not a one-ti thing. You know about the last incident as well. I really didn’t expect him to still treat like this. He’s no longer even working at this hospital—what’s the point of deliberately causing trouble for ?" Xiao Yifei complained.
