This Doctor Is Too Wealthy-Chapter 748 - 586 Treat from the root

Lan Changhua could understand Du Heng's anger. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

More importantly, Du Heng was an outstanding person himself, and outstanding people tend to be proud at their core.

With Guan Bo's current move, not only Du Heng, the person directly involved, but even Lan Changhua, an outsider, felt there was a deliberate element to it.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

Now, in every respect, Lan Changhua leaned more towards Du Heng. So, as long as Du Heng didn't act recklessly and had reason on his side, he would support him.

However, everything now depended on whether Guan Bo would ultimately cancel the competition. So, until they received a definite answer, all they could do was wait.

When Du Heng and the others returned to the downtown area, the first thing they did was visit Kang Zhirong, who had been brought back by ambulance.

"Xiao Kang, how's the check-up result?" Kang Zhirong's injury was in a rather sensitive location. On the main road, the young man had staunchly refused to remove his pants, so Du Heng hadn't been able to see its extent. Now that they met, Du Heng anxiously asked.

"It's no big deal, just a minor bruise. I'll be fine after resting overnight."

"Are you sure the bone isn't injured?"

"No, not even the skin on my butt is broken. The doctor let me go home to rest after the check-up."

"It's good that you're fine."

As for how severe the bruise Kang Zhirong mentioned was, he didn't let Du Heng see it. He spent that night lying face down on the bed.

「After a quiet night」

The next day, past nine in the morning, Du Heng still hadn't received any notice from Guan Bo about canceling the competition. He figured Guan Bo was probably fine. So, he went straight to complete the exchange program procedures as per the Quan City Health Department's requirements from the previous day.

Although he didn't receive Guan Bo's notice, Li Qin did arrive.

As soon as Li Qin arrived, she took Wu Shengnan's hands and began apologizing, "Nannan, I'm so sorry, you probably won't be able to shoot your scene. Director Jia only regained consciousness yesterday afternoon, and it's now confirmed he had a stroke. He can't speak clearly, half of his body is immobile, and he has convulsions from time to time. The film crew should hold a meeting this afternoon to discuss a new director. This will probably take two or three days, maybe even more than a week."

Wu Shengnan looked entirely unconcerned and said with a smile, "It's alright. I was just here to get a taste of it, and yesterday morning was enough for me. Actually, I was too embarrassed to say that I already wanted to slip away yesterday afternoon. Now it's great; I have a perfectly valid reason not to go."

As she spoke, Wu Shengnan started to worry about Li Qin and Feng Su, "But if they change directors, will it affect you and Susu?"

Li Qin sighed, looking a little absent-minded. "I should be fine, but it's hard to say for Susu. Director Jia was the one who signed her as the third female lead, but as you saw yesterday, she only filmed two scenes in total. I don't know if she'll be able to stay after the director changes."

Wu Shengnan also sighed.

The three women had gotten along for a day and a half and were already on the verge of becoming close friends. Wu Shengnan had gained a clear understanding of the harsh realities behind the glamour of the acting world. This was especially true for Feng Su, who was in an awkward career position: unable to secure high-profile roles but unwilling to settle for lesser ones.

This opportunity might be dispensable for others, but for Feng Su, it could truly be a chance.

After sighing for a moment, Wu Shengnan suddenly asked Li Qin, "If Director Jia recovers, then they wouldn't need to change directors, right?"

"If Director Jia recovers, they definitely won't change him. Investors would likely wait even a week or two; after all, Director Jia has a certain reputation in the TV drama industry. It's just a pity he had a stroke. He can't even speak. If Director Jia could speak, there might still be room to maneuver this."

Wu Shengnan quickly turned to Du Heng, "Husband, aren't you an expert in treating stroke? You're an expert in this field! Please take a look at Director Jia. If he gets better, Susu's role will be saved, won't it?"

Before Du Heng could respond to Wu Shengnan's words, Li Qin interjected doubtfully, "Wait, isn't Du an expert in treating tumors and bone setting? How could he also treat stroke?"

Hearing Li Qin's doubtful tone, Wu Shengnan said proudly, "Qinqin, you don't know this, do you? Du initially became famous for treating stroke. In Jinzhou now, he's the foremost expert in stroke treatment."

Li Qin immediately grew excited. "Really?"

"Of course, it's true! He's currently heading a provincial-level stroke research subject, and this subject is now in the process of applying to become a provincial level project," Wu Shengnan boasted, showing off Du Heng's accomplishments.

Li Qin didn't understand what "provincial-level subject" or "provincial level project" entailed, but seeing Wu Shengnan's expression and tone, she knew these terms signified something very impressive.

"Du, please, could you help take a look at Director Jia?" Li Qin looked at Du Heng with ardent eyes. "When I first started my career, Director Jia was the one who mentored me. Later, he helped recommend and connect me to several opportunities. He's truly my benefactor. Since you're an expert in this area, please help examine him. Regardless of the outcome, I'll owe you a favor."

Wu Shengnan also chimed in, "Husband, you and Qinqin are good friends, please help her."
