This Doctor Is Too Wealthy

”Yes, if you insist on doing this, your results won’t generate any heat on their own. If there is heat, then you must accept that millions, even tens of millions of trolls will attack you. Even those who speak up for you will be implicated.”

With a single sentence, Sister Li dispelled Du Heng’s unspoken intention to ask Li Qin and Feng Su for help.

Sister Li looked at Du Heng seriously. ”Don’t think I’m exaggerating; I’ve seen this with my own eyes. What you’re up against isn’t some small business worth mere tens or hundreds of thousands. I hope you clearly understand that. Also, I need to remind you of one more thing.”

Her words made Du Heng focus, his gaze fixed on Sister Li.

”When a large number of trolls truly swarm in,” Sister Li continued, her expression unchangingly grave, ”don’t expect them to possess any moral standards. You must understand, these people have no moral bottom line. They will launch any kind of unscrupulous, defamatory attack. Slander and vilification are the mildest forms. They will dox you, dox your family, your classmates, and your teachers, digging up anything they can use to attack and defame, and then they’ll shift all that defamation onto you.

”Moreover, the internet is full of mentally unstable, incredibly ignorant people who believe they’re saints or saintly. Their mindless combat power may even surpass trolls and cyber armies, causing unimaginable damage.”

Sister Li paused, taking a deep breath. ”I’ve seen a doctor like you, driven to depression and suicide by trolls and online moralists, and I was powerless to help.

”In conclusion, the bigger the commotion you cause, the higher the heat, and the better the effect, the more violent the backlash will be—beyond your imagination.”

Du Heng fell silent again. The light that had just begun to spark in his eyes dimmed once more.

According to his earlier thoughts, as long as he drew his bow, he was prepared to fight head-on, without yielding an inch.

But after listening to Sister Li’s words, he was afraid.

He wasn’t afraid of any loss to himself; he was afraid his actions would harm his family. His big brother and sister-in-law might be fine, living in the village without much exposure, but his niece, Du Xuejing, was studying in the Capital.

And then there were his classmates, teachers, and friends. He felt he couldn’t bear the thought of such harm befalling them.

Even though he had Wu Shengnan’s father as a strong backer, considering the market was worth a trillion, even ten trillion yuan, Du Heng didn’t think Wu Shengnan’s father could shield him completely.

Although the possibility was minuscule, practically negligible, he couldn’t take that risk.

”Doctor Du, heed my advice,” Sister Li said, her tone earnest. ”There’s no need to be so stubborn. Although I also can’t stand this kind of thing, our power is too weak. If we insist on confronting it head-on, it would be no different than blocking a runaway car with your bare arms.”

Sister Li spoke with great sincerity, her eyes reflecting her earnestness. ”I appreciate your talent and ability, and you’re also my father’s colleague and friend.

”Of course, I also consider you a friend, which is why I’m saying so much today.

”I really don’t want to see someone as talented as you get hurt and fade away.”

Du Heng exhaled gently, a forced, bitter smile on his face. ”I understand, Sister Li. I won’t act recklessly. Thank you.”

Seeing Du Heng make his stance clear, Sister Li also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, seeing Du Heng’s dejection, she worried that this incident might demoralize him, causing him to fall into a prolonged state of negativity.

After thinking for a moment, she said, ”The current situation arises because our strength is insufficient to fight back.

”But have you ever considered this?

”If you become nationally renowned, a leader in your field, your words will be the golden rule for it.

”Then, at that time, you can do what you want to do.”

Du Heng pursed his lips and sat up straight.

Two months ago, he was striving to improve Central Lake’s medical environment and provide better medical services for the villagers. He was still an ambitious young man, eager to make a difference.

But for various reasons, during these past two months, he had become just a Social Person, merely working for the sake of working.

Aspirations? It seemed he no longer had any.

The most he did, due to his position, was engage in mundane, unfulfilling tasks—just part of his routine duties.

Now, after Sister Li’s words, Du Heng seemed to have found a new goal to strive for.

Become famous. Incredibly famous.

Sister Li was right. He would likely never find such opportunities in other fields in this lifetime.

But if he made a name for himself in his own industry, if the whole of society knew him as a famous doctor, a Divine Doctor, then his words would carry significant weight.

Divine Doctor? Divine Doctor!

A term Du Heng had once scoffed at now gave him a goal to strive for.

I will become a Divine Doctor.

I will become a world-renowned Divine Doctor!

Light returned to Du Heng’s eyes. His expression was no longer dim, and his entire being surged with renewed strength.

He couldn’t speak for other industries, but in traditional Chinese medicine, Du Heng had this confidence.

”Thank you, Sister Li. I’m fine. I know what to do.” Du Heng expressed his gratitude to Sister Li with utmost sincerity.
