Chapter 1269 - 811: Kindness Is Best Kept for Yourself

"What guarantee can you offer me?"

Du Heng's words weren't harsh, but they directly darkened Fatty Luo's face, like the bottom of a pot, tearing away his only shred of modesty without mercy.

Director?

Does he have any connection with Du Heng?

Indeed, Du Heng is now part of the Health Group, and in a certain sense, Du Heng is really one of Fatty Luo's subordinates.

The Health Group is merely a coordinating agency with almost no administrative power. Its main role is to coordinate experts for the elderly in the capital to come to the door and treat illnesses, prolonging life.

If taken seriously, its power can reach the heavens.

If not taken seriously, it's really worth nothing.

Du Heng now completely disregarded Fatty Luo, leaving him with nothing but a darkened face.

"Doctor Du, are you really showing me no respect?" Fatty Luo said in a low, sullen voice.

Du Heng stared back at him unyieldingly, speaking in a calm tone, "Deputy Department Head Luo, you shouldn't put it that way. I've already given you plenty of face earlier; the one being disrespectful is Director Xue, who has some unknown connection with you, right?"

Turning back to glance at Director Xue, whose eyes still harbored resentment, Du Heng continued, "Also, Deputy Department Head Luo, do you think your face is more important to me or my family's safety?"

"Besides, I've given you face the first time, but you keep interfering in my private affairs repeatedly. Is it me disrespecting you, or you disrespecting me?"

Fatty Luo squinted his eyes slightly, realizing Du Heng was impervious.

After a lengthy silence, he softly asked, "Then, Doctor Du, what do you want?"

Du Heng chuckled, shaking his head with a smile, "Deputy Department Head Luo, shouldn't you be asking Director Xue what she wants, instead of what I want?"

He then shook his head again, "Forget it, this matter isn't related to you, Deputy Department Head Luo. Too much talk will only cause friction, let's not discuss it."

Once he said this, Du Heng directly turned to Director Xue and said, "Your gaze makes me quite uneasy, making me worry about my family's safety.

Therefore, I'm prepared to offer 10 million yuan to resolve this trouble. In this world, there are problems money can't solve, but I believe you aren't part of that category. Even if you are, I think 10 million should be enough; if not, I'll add more."

This blunt threat eased much of the resentment in Director Xue's eyes, especially when seeing Du Heng disregard Fatty Luo's face, making her realize she had truly provoked the wrong person this time.

Du Heng then chuckled to himself and said, "Of course, coming to this world calls for some value, and I feel spending 10 million on you doesn't seem worth it."

Was she going to be let off the hook?

Director Xue's heart lifted, even Mr. Ma beside her showed joy on his face.

However, Du Heng's next words almost scared them witless.

"So, to give you some value and make my 10 million worthwhile, I think your name should appear on the organ donation list.

This way, on one hand, countless poor people suffering from illness can be helped; on the other, it can make a trivial contribution to the progress of organ transplant in our country."

Du Heng's words were light and calm, yet each one made people's hair stand on end, "In this way, you offer your body, I offer money, you haven't come to this world in vain, and I won't feel I've lost out. Isn't this a win-win situation?"

Pausing slightly and looking at Director Xue's eyes now void of resentment, filled only with panic, Du Heng smiled and asked, "Director Xue, what do you think of my proposal?"

Seeing Du Heng's warm smile, Director Xue suddenly felt a chill, so cold she shivered all over.

At this moment, she couldn't hold back anymore, no longer daring to entertain any thoughts, nor to contest with anyone, using the most sincere and humble tone to say, "Doctor Du, Classmate Du, I'm sorry, I realize my mistake, I won't dare anymore."

Yet Du Heng suddenly dropped his smile, his eyes turning cold, "Is this your attitude in admitting your mistake?"

Ah~~~

Director Xue was completely flustered, uncertain about what else she should do.

Do she need to kneel and kowtow?

Then Du Heng pointed to the wine dispenser on the table, "Weren't you just saying you'd punish yourself with three drinks? Use that cup, let me feel your sincerity."

Everyone was dumbfounded again.

Round and round, all the matters seemed to go in circles, returning to the starting point.

However, punishing oneself with three drinks now and initially are not just different in meaning, but everyone's mindset has undergone a huge change.

At first, punishing oneself with three drinks showed them giving face to Du Heng and Zhang Shiping.

Now, punishing oneself with three drinks indicates Du Heng showing mercy and letting her off, Du Heng giving them face.

It's different, the meaning is entirely different!

This time, Director Xue lost her false pretense and took the fastest speed to fill and down the wine.

After finishing, she looked at Du Heng with hopeful eyes.

Du Heng quietly watched Director Xue for a few seconds, "I don't want to say unnecessary words, what I worry about, I don't wish to see happening, nor hear any rumor whatsoever."
