Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 180: Chapter 179: Xu Wendong’s Transformation

Xu Wendong didn’t know why he ended up with such a tragic outcome.

After all, he really hadn’t thought of making money by treating people. Although he had prescribed medicine for some patients in the past two days, he hadn’t earned a penny!

He could accept the many curses online because the previous video itself had been taken out of context.

In today’s rapidly developing internet world, there were too many emerging and hard-to-distinguish true-and-false news pieces. As ordinary people, very few could distinguish between the real and the fake.

But!

He couldn’t accept the insults and suspicions from the two patients he had treated, nor the baseless accusations!

That was an invisible knife!

It slashed away the innocence in his heart!

”Folks, you’ve all seen today’s punishment, so disperse, please. As for the online comments, our public security department will dig deeper and definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation!” the leading police officer said to the onlookers, then escorted Xu Wendong into the police car.

”Mister Xu, our director wants to see you.” After getting into the car, that officer was full of courtesy.

Xu Wendong was about to speak when he saw a familiar figure by the roadside. Wasn’t it Liu Cai He? She was dressed in a white tracksuit, full of vitality.

”I want to see the world.”

At the moment Xu Wendong saw Liu Cai He, her voice echoed in his mind, making him shiver. Soul transmission?

Such a skill wasn’t something ordinary people could possess!

He wanted to tell her something, but he couldn’t do soul voice transmission yet. He could only watch as Liu Cai He gradually disappeared from his sight.

”Forget it, forget it!”

”Everyone has their own destiny. She too should truly adapt to this world!”

”As for what the future holds...”

”What does it have to do with me?”

”From now on, I will live for myself!”

”To hell with the life and death of everyone else!”

At that moment, Xu Wendong’s mindset underwent a radical change. Maybe it was because he’d grown up with his grandfather. In the past, his dream was to save lives and take saving the world as his mission.

But after today, his dream had died.

He wanted to live for himself!

Live freely!

Twenty minutes later, the police car stopped in front of a teahouse.

”Mister Xu, our director is waiting for you on the second floor. You can go up directly.”

”Alright, thank you.”

Xu Wendong thanked him and headed straight to the second floor. What surprised him was that, in addition to Deng Wencheng, the head of the local police, even Li Zhenfeng was there.

”Secretary Li, do you people with such busy lives have the habit of drinking morning tea?” Xu Wendong casually joked and then sat down at the tea table.

Deng Wencheng felt a sharp twinge in his heart; probably only Xu Wendong dared to speak to Li Zhenfeng in such a tone in all of Qingyuan. Without thinking much, he quickly said, ”Secretary Li knew about your situation and contacted me as soon as possible. Why, oh why, didn’t you explain the child labor issue earlier?”

Xu Wendong shrugged, ”Some people don’t care if you’re innocent or not. They just want to see you fall into disgrace. Now that their dream has come true, what’s the point in explaining further?”

Li Zhenfeng spoke up, ”To be honest, I didn’t expect you to fall so hard today.”

Xu Wendong gritted his teeth and said indignantly, ”Let’s consider it a lesson from society!”

”You can say that, which shows you have a high level of awareness.” Li Zhenfeng showed a gentlemanly smile, ”Have you thought about taking a different path?”

Xu Wendong frowned, ”Could you people in politics speak a little more directly?”

He really didn’t like the way people in politics talked, not direct enough.

Deng Wencheng poured tea for the two and said nervously, ”Secretary Li hopes you can give up medicine and pursue a career in politics.”

”That’s right.” Li Zhenfeng added, ”I’ve always admired your abilities, or rather, your spirit of pride. If you enter politics, you’ll surely have a great future.”

”It’s just that before, you were wholeheartedly into medicine.”

”And now, have you discovered a problem?”

”A doctor can only save people but cannot save the nation?”

Xu Wendong fell silent. After today’s incident, he profoundly realized that doctors could only save the body, not the heart.

”Thank you, Secretary Li, for your kindness, but I don’t want to enter politics, nor do I want to save the nation.”

”Too exhausting!”

The simple phrase ”too exhausting” resonated with Li Zhenfeng, and he sighed, ”Yes, it’s really exhausting. Many times, I’ve also thought about giving up, but since we are born into this world, we must at least accomplish something. Not for eternal fame, but at least not to waste living in the world!”

He paused for a moment and smiled enigmatically, ”You aren’t being discouraged by today’s incident, are you?”

Xu Wendong took a sip of tea and said lightly, ”Not really, I just want to live for myself! As for the path you mentioned...”

”Honestly, chatting with you is already tiring. To join your circle would make me very uncomfortable, worse than death.”

”Moreover, considering my personality, would politics even accommodate me?”

”I estimate with my straightforward nature, I wouldn’t last a month before falling to someone else’s schemes.”

Li Zhenfeng was amused and laughed out loud, ”Indeed, your personality doesn’t suit politics, but your medical skills could make you prosper and support you like wings.”

Suddenly Xu Wendong asked, ”Qingyuan is about to face massive turmoil. If I step into politics, who will stabilize Qingyuan’s scene?”

Li Zhenfeng was at a loss for words.

Xu Wendong continued, ”Yes, I admit you were right before. In a lifetime, one should achieve something, leave their footprints in the world.”

”And I no longer wish to stand out.”

”Too exhausting!”

”From now on, you govern openly.”

”I’ll work in the shadows.”

”Let’s join hands and lead the people of Qingyuan to a better life!”

A trace of disappointment appeared in Li Zhenfeng’s eyes, ”Everyone has their aspirations. Since you don’t want to enter politics, I won’t force you. However, my previous proposal stands. If you change your mind, you can call me anytime.”

”Okay.” Xu Wendong smiled and didn’t directly refuse, since Li Zhenfeng held a significant position. He should at least show some respect.

”You two chat, I have to get to work!” Li Zhenfeng got up and left, leaving only Xu Wendong and Deng Wencheng in the teahouse.

Deng Wencheng asked, ”What do you plan to do next? Aren’t you going to reclaim the South City reconstruction project?”

Xu Wendong took a sip of tea, smiling expectantly, ”Don’t worry, the time isn’t ripe yet!”

Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang, displaying the phone number of Liang Jian, the director of the hospital’s traditional medicine department, ”Xu Wendong, your vacation is over. Now you’re assigned to Qingshan Village as a designated doctor.”
