Chapter 1285 - 818: Is He Asking for Betrothal Gifts?

This question really left Mr. Ma speechless.

Has he ever handled such things?

Definitely has, and certainly more than a few times.

But can he tell Du Heng?

Definitely can't.

Not just the methods, even a single related word shouldn't be mentioned.

No matter what the relationship between Du Heng and Zhang Shiping is, not a single word can be said.

Besides, he and Du Heng haven't reached the point of exchanging such confidential matters.

But now he doesn't dare to recklessly make promises. He's a bit uncertain about how deep the relationship between Du Heng and Zhang Shiping is, and he's even more unclear if Du Heng is genuinely trying to find a benefit for Zhang Shiping or is deliberately testing him.

Du Heng doesn't have such complicated thoughts like Mr. Ma; he just casually asked.

Seeing Mr. Ma so troubled and silent, he smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, if it's inconvenient to say, then it's fine. I won't ask anymore, and I'll discuss with Zhang what to do."

"Mr. Ma, does this work for you?"

Mr. Ma secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Sure, why not? You and Director Zhang are good friends, it's fine however you discuss it."

Then, his eyes subtly shifted, saying, "However, I think there's not much to talk about with Director Zhang about this matter."

"Mr. Ma, do you have any other suggestions?"

Mr. Ma restrained his smile, coughed, and said, "Director Du might not know, but Director Zhang's spouse is the general agent of several big brands."

Seeing Mr. Ma stop talking at this point, Du Heng raised an eyebrow, had some thoughts in his mind, and chuckled without saying more.

After discussing some other matters with Mr. Ma that needed communication, he saw Mr. Ma off.

Back home, the first thing Du Heng did was call Liao Quansheng to discuss the matter. Liao Quansheng was very surprised, "Du, are you going to work in the Capital or expand the business?

How about this, you focus on research and development for us; we'll work together as brothers, and aim for the company to go public in one year, become industry leader in two years, national first in three years, and world first in five years?"

Listening to Liao Quansheng's somewhat crazy words, Du Heng replied, "You may not look pretty, but you sure dream big. Go wash your face and sleep; in dreams, not to mention world first, you could become the universe's number one billionaire.

Alright, enough joking. Come to the Capital soon and finalize the matters. By the way, bring Lawyer Zhou and Xiao Kang when you come."

Liao Quansheng was just joking; he knew Du Heng's real intentions better than anyone, "Alright, I'll arrange it in the next couple days and come to the Capital.

But, Du, I think Lawyer Zhou is no problem, but don't you know Xiao Zhou can't come?"

Du Heng was bewildered, not quite understanding Liao Quansheng's meaning, "What happened to Xiao Kang? Why can't he come? You guys are supposed to discuss matters, and he's supposed to represent me fully. What's going on if he doesn't come?"

As he spoke, Du Heng realized talking to Liao Quansheng wouldn't help, so he changed his tone and said, "Forget it, I'll just ask Xiao Kang."

"You don't know?" Liao Quansheng was very surprised after hearing Du Heng.

And Du Heng was even more confused, "Know what? Or am I supposed to know?"

Liao Quansheng directly lost his temper, "Your good employee, Comrade Kang Zhirong, has been sued."

"What?" Du Heng was genuinely shocked, "Who's suing, and for what?"

As he said this, suddenly a thought struck him, surprised he asked, "Is it about the incident where he knocked someone down last time?"

Liao Quansheng sighed, "That's right, it's the hero saving a damsel in distress that caused the trouble."

Du Heng reflected on the incident's details, thinking a pleural perforation wasn't a big deal, compensation of 3,000 to 5,000 yuan should resolve it. How come he got sued?

Could it be that Kang Zhirong is begrudging the 3,000 to 5,000 yuan?

"Liao, what's going on exactly? That matter should not require much compensation, 3,000 to 5,000 yuan could settle it, is it that Xiao Kang didn't pay them?"

"I say, Du, you're not a very competent boss." Liao Quansheng despised Du Heng for a moment and then said, "Not just 3,000 to 5,000 yuan, they're asking for 88,000 yuan."

Hearing the figure from Liao Quansheng, Du Heng was dumbfounded, "88,000 yuan, that's crazy right? It's just a pleural perforation, if I remember correctly Xiao Kang covered the medical expenses, why is it so much?

88,000 yuan, is it for betrothal gifts?"

Hearing Du Heng's agitated voice, Liao Quansheng lightly sighed, "Pleural perforation? What a pleasant thought, the infection spread leading to a complete lung infection.

And you still think 88,000 yuan is too much, I think it's even low."

How did it get infected?

Du Heng was a bit puzzled.

A few days ago, wasn't it said that the person had recovered and was ready to be discharged? How did it suddenly get infected?

If the infection occurred at the hospital, then the hospital should be sued, not Kang Zhirong.

Liao Quansheng saw Du Heng was silent, so he smiled and said, "You should ask Xiao Kang, he knows exactly what happened.

Anyway, coming to the Capital this time, I'm certain Xiao Kang can't make it. These days, he has to serve as a caregiver at the hospital."

After saying this, Liao Quansheng hung up the phone, leaving Du Heng alone in thoughts.

Holding the phone, Du Heng pondered for a while but couldn't figure anything out. Deciding it's better to call Kang Zhirong and ask.
