Chapter 1053: Chapter 1053: You Are My Nemesis in This Lifetime!

Ming Darin shook his head with a smile after hearing Zhong Yuanliang’s words and said, “Yuan Liang, no need for formalities. Food can be eaten anytime. I have some things to do today, so I’ll leave first.”

Just as Ming Xizhi was about to step out of the villa’s door, Dugu Wushang calmly said, “Ming Darin, why not stay for dinner?”

Seeing the expressions of the two, Ming Xizhi turned to Qin Han and said, “Qin Han, you’re not playing fair, are you?”

“Are you going to kidnap me if I don’t help?”

Qin Han responded nonchalantly, “They’re just being kind and want you to stay for a meal. How can you say I’m trying to kidnap you?”

At this moment, Song Yuwei also chimed in with a smile, “That’s right, Ming Darin. You just promised to help, and now you’re leaving without even staying for a meal. Aren’t you always worrying for the people’s sake?”

Hearing what Song Yuwei said, a trace of nervousness appeared on Ming Xizhi’s face, and he said, “Miss Song, you’ve picked up bad habits from Qin Han.”

“I’m just realizing it now, why both of you were praising me at the same time?”

“There must be something else, and it’s definitely tricky to handle!”

Qin Han, however, waved to Ming Xizhi and said, “Freshly brewed tea, don’t make me lose face.”

As soon as Qin Han finished speaking, Zhong Yuanliang and Dugu Wushang each took an arm of Ming Xizhi and headed toward the living room.

Feeling his body being lifted, Ming Xizhi hurriedly said to the two, “Yuan Liang, you’re a good kid; you shouldn’t keep company with the likes of tigers and leopards.”

“Wushang, given our friendship, this isn’t very nice of you, is it?”

But the two didn’t listen to Ming Xizhi at all and directly sandwiched him into the living room, pressing him onto the sofa.

Looking at the cup of tea in front of him, Ming Xizhi warily said to Qin Han, “Spit it out quickly if you have something to say.”

Qin Han gave Ming Xizhi a glance and then said calmly, “When resolving the corruption issue at the First Hospital, there’s another problem.”

“Which is why does this phenomenon occur at the First Hospital?”

“Ultimately, it’s because our First Hospital doctors are poorly paid.”

“So, the next thing is I’d like to ask Ming Darin to help us improve the overall doctor compensation at the First Hospital.”

After all, the First Hospital is directly under the jurisdiction of Longguo, and to improve the basic treatment of doctors, we must obtain approval from above.

Ming Xizhi looked incredulously at Qin Han and said, “I knew it, the matter you asked me to handle couldn’t possibly be so simple.”

“I say, Qin Han, do you know how difficult this is?”

“Longguo just took over the Northwest, and we need to put a huge investment there. Every penny has to be used wisely.”

“At this critical moment, you’re asking me to improve the basic treatment of the First Hospital doctors. Isn’t this putting me in a tough spot?”

“If this were in the Central Plain area, I wouldn’t say anything; I’d just handle it for you.”

“But this is the Northwest. My words carry no weight here, do they?”

After speaking, Ming Xizhi looked at Qin Han with a smile.

Jiang Wan, watching Ming Xizhi, muttered helplessly to herself, “Sigh, tilting at a few compliments and now feeling the pinch.”

Ming Xizhi almost burst into tears after hearing Jiang Wan’s words and looked at Jiang Wan pleadingly.

However, Jiang Wan’s words completely plunged Ming Xizhi into an icy pit.

“You like stepping into traps yourself; how can I save you?” Jiang Wan said irritably.

Upon hearing what Jiang Wan said, Ming Xizhi pleaded, looking at Qin Han, “Qin Han, you see, I’m not the head of the Northwest region, am I?”

“Didn’t you just say you have a good relationship with the new city government leader?” Qin Han looked at Ming Xizhi with a smile.

Ming Xizhi sighed helplessly and said, “I do get along with him, but he’s just taken office. You have to understand that a lot of places require funding. How on earth do I broach this subject?”

Qin Han shook his head and said, “You promised me earlier, and everyone here heard it.”

“The renowned Ming Darin from Central Plains wouldn’t go back on his word, would he?”

At this point, Song Yuwei also spoke up, “Ming Darin, only by improving the basic treatment of doctors can they wholeheartedly treat patients. Do you want them to revert to their old ways?”

“I am well aware of the issues at the First Hospital. The basic salaries were initially low because the Qian family gave them a high profit share,” explained Ming Xizhi, nodding.

After hearing Ming Xizhi’s words, Qin Han calmly said, “But now I’ve canceled the profit-sharing method, so their basic salaries are very low. Do you think they’ll remain at the First Hospital for long?”

“As a leader, you’ve been through the career path for so many years; you should see these issues clearer than any of us,” Song Yuwei earnestly gazed at Ming Xizhi. “Yes, money should be spent effectively, but the issues at the First Hospital are also critical. Only with good health can the masses continually produce infinite productivity, don’t you agree?”

“Why talk so much nonsense with him?” Just as Ming Xizhi was about to speak, Qin Han snorted coldly.

Then he turned to Dugu Wushang and Zhong Yuanliang, “You two, if Ming Darin doesn’t agree, don’t let him go.”

“Yes, Mr. Qin!” The two nodded in unison, then looked at Ming Xizhi.

Ming Xizhi, seeing the watchful eyes of Dugu Wushang and Zhong Yuanliang, said helplessly, “Even if you keep me here, it won’t do any good, right?”

He then turned to Qin Han and said, “Qin Han, how about this?”

“I’ll introduce you to the new city government leader, and you can discuss the details with him. Whether it succeeds or not will depend on your own abilities.”

Qin Han said nothing, just silently picked up a teacup and took a sip of tea.

Beside him, Song Yuwei smiled and said, “I believe with Ming Darin’s introduction, this matter would surely gain approval, given Ming Darin’s reputation.”

Ming Xizhi smiled bitterly after hearing Song Yuwei’s words and said, “I admit defeat to you two; one sings the red face, the other the white face.”

“Miss Song, you used to be such a pure and kind-hearted woman!”

“How did you get corrupted after being with Qin Han?”

Song Yuwei, full of smiles, said, “Simply put, a wife follows her husband no matter the circumstances.”

“Will you agree to this or not?” Qin Han, with a tone already filled with impatience, looked sternly at Ming Xizhi.

“I agree, I agree!”

“You are the bane of my life!”
