CHAPTER 61: CHAPTER 61: INVESTIGATION

Uh...

Watching the usually elegant Xu Man Ni curse, Zhao Heng was momentarily stunned.

Moreover, looking at Xu Man Ni, it was clear she was really upset.

But it’s understandable; anyone in the medical field would be angry hearing about such a thing.

"Sis, see, I’m fine, right? Besides, the teacher already said the hospital will handle it."

Seeing how upset Xu Man Ni was, Zhao Heng felt a bit helpless and turned to comfort her.

Ironically, it was his issue, yet he had to comfort Xu Man Ni, which was kinda funny.

"Have you offended someone recently?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Man Ni calmed down a bit and asked after thinking for a while.

Who would maliciously target a young doctor without cause?

In this situation, if not for Gao Jun backing Zhao Heng, he could have been drowned in such rumors.

"I don’t think so..."

Zhao Heng replied.

"Let me think..."

Seeing Zhao Heng’s expression, Xu Man Ni knew Zhao Heng’s character and didn’t think he’d offend anyone badly.

Suddenly, she thought of someone, who recently made harsh comments to her, even mentioning Zhao Heng.

Could it really be him?

Dammit!

That bastard!

The more Xu Man Ni thought, the more likely it seemed.

It’s not surprising that a narrow-minded person would do such a thing.

"Sis, what’s wrong?"

Seeing Xu Man Ni suddenly getting angry, Zhao Heng couldn’t help but ask.

"I think I know who it is. The reason this person smeared you is probably because of me."

Xu Man Ni said, feeling apologetic.

She didn’t expect Yin Jian to be so petty, resorting to smearing Zhao Heng, who was closer to her, just because his pursuit of her failed.

Such a person is simply a plague.

"Sis, is he your suitor?"

Upon hearing Xu Man Ni say this, Zhao Heng’s eyes widened. Is this the legendary, random strike?

Zhao Heng thought he might have somehow offended someone, not expecting to be an undeserving victim.

This is just too unjust!

Indeed, beauty is only for the strong!

If you’re not capable, being too close to a beauty will bring trouble.

"Yes, it should be Yin Jian, the person who competed with you for the assistant director position. He’s been pestering me like sticky gum. I’ve rejected him several times, but I didn’t expect him to take it out on you. Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility for this."

Xu Man Ni nodded and said with some guilt and urgency.

Even though she actively approached Zhao Heng, Zhao Heng became an undeserving victim of this situation, making her quite anxious.

"Uh... Sis, if that’s the case, then just explain it to him clearly. As for smearing me, I won’t let it go easily."

Zhao Heng thought for a while and said. So, this is what it’s all about.

However, this Yin Jian really lives up to his name, such a jerk.

Need to find a way to teach this jerk a lesson, but how?

Zhao Heng thought to himself.

"Don’t worry, I promise this won’t happen again."

Xu Man Ni said apologetically.

"It’s okay, Sis, you’re a victim too."

Zhao Heng said casually.

After all, it’s not Xu Man Ni’s fault. Against such jerks, waiting is not an option.

"I’ll go first. Don’t worry about this, focus on your exam prep, and I’ll give you an explanation."

After saying this, Xu Man Ni left quickly.

Watching Xu Man Ni’s departing figure, Zhao Heng was momentarily stunned.

This situation has taken a turn.

Yin Jian!

Zhao Heng heard this name once at a hospital staff meeting. He had seen Yin Jian as the returning representative, confidently speaking on stage; the scene still clearly remembered by Zhao Heng.

Which foreign medical school did Yin Jian graduate from?

Zhao Heng tried recalling; someone had told him about it.

Right, it was Hopkins, the same school Song Chen graduated from.

Initially, Zhao Heng thought it was normal for the dean’s nephew to attend such a prestigious school.

But now Zhao Heng wondered, given that Johns Hopkins Medical School is a world-class institution, could someone like him, constantly obsessed with women and so narrow-minded, actually muster the ability to attend such a school?

Thinking this, Zhao Heng left the break room, intending to find someone to inquire about Johns Hopkins Medical School.

Soon, Zhao Heng arrived at the cardiology department, but once at the office, he hesitated at the door.

"What’s wrong? You looking for me?"

While Zhao Heng stood there, a gentle voice came from behind him.

Zhao Heng turned around and saw it was Song Chen.

"I heard about your situation. How’s it going now? Has it been clarified?"

Before Zhao Heng could speak, Song Chen asked concernedly.

"Yes, basically it’s resolved. The hospital will handle it."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"Senior, I have something to ask you. Do you have time now?"

After a pause, Zhao Heng said again.

"Let’s talk in the break room."

Song Chen nodded.

Not long after, they arrived at the cardiology department’s doctor break room. At this time, everyone was in the office, so only Zhao Heng and Song Chen were in the break room.

"Here."

Song Chen picked up a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Zhao Heng.

Zhao Heng took it, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip before asking:

"Senior, I remember you graduated from Johns Hopkins Medical School, right?"

"Yes, that’s right. What’s up?"

Song Chen nodded.

"Senior, for international students going to Hopkins from China, can specific information be verified?"

Zhao Heng thought for a moment and asked.

"Of course, that’s a simple task."

Song Chen was a bit surprised by Zhao Heng’s question but answered confidently.

With Johns Hopkins being a world-class institution, many would impersonate their academic status for various purposes, so they surely opened a public verification channel.

"Then, can you help me check on someone?"

Zhao Heng directly asked.

"Who? Also a Hopkins graduate?"

Song Chen asked with interest.

"Yin Jian, do you know this person, Senior?"

Zhao Heng said.

"Yin Jian? I know him. They say he’s connected, and a nephew of the dean. Why? Are you investigating him?"

Song Chen asked somewhat puzzled.

"It’s like this..."

Zhao Heng spent a good while explaining the drama involving him, Xu Man Ni, and Yin Jian.

"Cough... Such a thing..."

"Don’t worry. I’m still in touch with my advisor. I’ll send an email, and results will be swift."

Song Chen looked quite surprised.

"Thanks, Senior."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"So you’re doubting the authenticity of his diploma?"

Song Chen was quick-witted, naturally understanding what Zhao Heng meant by investigating Yin Jian.

"Senior, you’re also a graduate of Hopkins. If you return just to be an assistant director relying on your uncle’s position as dean, is that the standard for Hopkins?"

Zhao Heng said logically.

"Hmm, I understand. You’re right, that makes sense."

After pondering, Song Chen nodded in agreement.

Indeed, for a valedictorian from a world-renowned medical school, returning to be an assistant director relying on connections, the value of their education becomes questionable.
