This Doctor Is Too Wealthy

”That’s good.” Du Heng responded with a nod and continued playing with the Child.

In such a harmonious atmosphere, Liao Yuzhu’s eyes kept darting around, looking like she had something to say but was hesitant.

After lingering for a while, Liao Yuzhu suddenly spoke to Kang Zhirong, ”Hey, handsome, could you please check the kitchen to see if the Meal is ready?”

Kang Zhirong was seated a bit further away, trying not to intrude on Du Heng and his friend’s gathering, so he busied himself with his Mobile phone. Upon hearing Liao Yuzhu’s request, he paused for a moment, then smiled and headed toward the direction Liao Yuzhu indicated.

Liao Yuzhu’s behavior made her brother, Mr. Liao, frown, and Du Heng, too, appeared slightly surprised.

Liao Yuzhu’s behavior was improper hospitality.

But given the changes in Liao Yuzhu over the past two years, she shouldn’t be doing something so rude.

Could it be intentional?

Du Heng’s Heart raced as he glanced toward Liao Yuzhu.

Liao Yuzhu coughed lightly and said quietly to Du Heng, ”Heng, don’t overthink. I have something to tell you.”

Du Heng felt a small premonition and replied with a smile, ”If you have something to say, just speak up instead of being all secretive.”

Liao Yuzhu nervously tucked her hair away from her Eye and spoke with her head down, ”Last month I went to Uncle’s house, and he says... he says my sister is coming back.”

Indeed!

However, Du Heng chuckled lightly and continued teasing the Child in his arms, ”It’s good if she’s coming back. The Old man and woman do need someone to take care of them.

She should properly make amends for the neglect of the past two Years towards the two Old men.”

Upon hearing Du Heng’s casual remarks, Liao Yuzhu raised her head in surprise, ”Heng, you...”

Mr. Liao quickly glared at Liao Yuzhu and said sternly, ”Yu Zhu, go change the Child’s diaper.”

Upon hearing her brother’s words, Liao Yuzhu’s sentence was cut off, and she reluctantly took the Child amidst her brother’s reproachful gaze.

As Du Heng handed over the Child, he rose and said with a smile to the Liao siblings, ”Mr. Liao, get on the Capital matter quickly. Pack up these couple of days, and head over.

I still have things to attend to, so I must excuse myself.”

Mr. Liao gave Liao Yuzhu an obscure glare, then hurriedly said to Du Heng, ”Don’t rush off so soon. The Meal is ready, it’s not too late to leave after eating.”

Du Heng smiled and shook his head, politely declining, ”No need, we’re among ourselves, no need for formalities.

You know my current situation; the Child can’t be left alone, and I’ve scheduled with others, so I must finish my business and return quickly to care for the Child.”

It was just then that Kang Zhirong returned.

He hadn’t spoken yet when Du Heng beckoned to him, ”Xiao Kang, we’re leaving.”

”Huh?”

Kang Zhirong was a little puzzled but quickly sped up to follow.

After watching Du Heng’s Car drive away in the distance, Mr. Liao glared angrily at Liao Yuzhu, ”Yu Zhu, you’re a Mother now; think before you speak and act.

Look at this mess now, what is this?”

Liao Yuzhu was aggrieved, expressing incomprehension, ”Isn’t it because my sister-in-law is returning? I just thought...”

”Stop.” Mr. Liao immediately chastised Liao Yuzhu, ”You keep thinking and thinking, but have you thought about whether Du Heng wants to hear this news?”

”Why wouldn’t Heng want to? They were so good together back then,” Liao Yuzhu said urgently, ”Besides, I didn’t have any other intention. She’s coming back for a meet, that’s all.”

Mr. Liao sneered, ”Meet? Is your head not working, or did your sister-in-law dream too big?

At that time, her brother’s Corpse was left neglected at the funeral home, her Mother turned into having neurological disorders, and she walked away without a word.”

Mr. Liao’s Eye seemed to be shooting daggers as he stared at Liao Yuzhu, ”And Du Heng dealt with all of this, even treating her Mother.

Du Heng doesn’t owe her anything; it’s her who owes Du Heng.

Why should she leave without a notice, and why should Du Heng be expected to go see her when she decides to return?”

Liao Yuzhu was at a loss for words, standing for a long moment before saying, ”Wasn’t that an extreme situation?

Even as siblings, we were petrified.

So she hid to heal her Heart, isn’t that normal? Why can’t she be forgiven?”

Mr. Liao’s Eyes seemed to blaze, ”She healed, but what about Du Heng? Who treats the wounds in his Heart?

Liao Yuzhu, I urge you to think more when speaking, consider others, and don’t be so selfish.”

Liao Quansheng’s tone was indignant, his face darkening, which scared the Child in Liao Yuzhu’s arms, making her pout, almost ready to cry.

Seeing this, Liao Quansheng forced a smile, while Liao Yuzhu gently patted the Child’s back, soothing, ”Why such a big reaction? I just wished for them to meet and clear the air.”

Liao Quansheng turned to walk inside.

As he avoided the Child, his expression returned to darkness, ”What’s there to say?

The current Du Heng has a rounded career and Family, and you’ve met his lover; she’s entirely focused on Du Heng; now they have a cute baby, they’re truly happy.

You want them to meet; have you thought about Du Heng’s Family? Consider their Child?”

Liao Yuzhu pouted behind him, dissatisfied as she defended, ”I... I... just for them to meet and resolve misunderstandings, not to do anything, aren’t you overreacting?”

”Hmph~~” Liao Quansheng snorted heavily, ”Overreacting? Have you considered how Du Heng’s lover would feel if they met?

Don’t be quick to debate; rather, put yourself in Du Heng’s lover’s shoes. Think, how would you feel?

This left Liao Yuzhu utterly silent.

While Liao Quansheng anticipated this, he coldly remarked again, ”Do not impose what you yourself disdain upon others; keep your assumptions to yourself.

Must your assumptions be right? Must they be good?

Moreover, for Du Heng’s matters, meddle less in the future; now they should coexist peacefully, leaving each other undisturbed.”

Through Liao Quansheng’s intervention, Liao Yuzhu somewhat realized her presumptuousness.

However, for Du Heng, who had departed, he didn’t feel especially sad, excited, or even regretful.

He didn’t hear Liao Quansheng’s words; if he had, he would have strongly agreed with Liao Quansheng’s statement that ’Du Heng has been fair to Wang Shuqiu’.

No deficits, no debts, a clear conscience — let it remain as it is.

Meanwhile, Du Heng understood why Liao Yuzhu had sent Kang Zhirong away; she knew this matter, if heard by Wu Shengnan, would disgust.

Unaware, Kang Zhirong gently queried after driving some distance, ”Du, where are we headed now?”

Du Heng exhaled and buried the matter, quietly replying, ”To Central Lake.”

Kang Zhirong steered the wheel, directly veering onto Waihuan Road toward Central Lake, yet he couldn’t help but ask, ”Du, aren’t you going to thank that fellow townsman again?”

Du Heng glanced at Kang Zhirong and retorted, ”Why, can’t I?”

After a brief pause, Kang Zhirong said, ”Not that you can’t. But Mr. Liao has already provided a gratitude fee; isn’t another visit redundant?”

Du Heng replied softly, ”Nonsense, a debt of gratitude should be repaid with KI-01 generosity; a little money is merely compensation, an agreement we made.

But as the Child’s Father, a personal visit to express thanks is imperative.

One must have gratitude in Heart; never underestimate the value of appreciation over money.”

Kang Zhirong quietly grimaced, internally griping: Money may not be omnipotent, but lack of money is outright impossible.

Without your hefty reward, would you see that fellow townsman so eager to Call the police?
