Chapter 390 I Have a Friend Series
Around seven o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to his residence in Zijinyuan and found that his fourth sister was not there. Qingning had already prepared dinner.
"The canteen at Ning'an Hospital will open tomorrow. Fourth sister said she'll be back late tonight."
"Zhi Ming, let's have hot pot. These mutton rolls and beef rolls are all made with fresh meat hand-cut by the chef."
Yu Zhiming tidied up, sat down at the dining table, and made himself a sesame paste dipping sauce.
"Lime, tomorrow is Friday, what are the plans for the party tomorrow night?"
Gu Qingning introduced: "It has been arranged."
"The canteen at Ning'an Hospital will open tomorrow. Since Fourth Sister and Zhang Bai can't stay away, we've arranged the gathering at the Northeastern Iron Pot Stew restaurant near Ning'an Hospital."
Yu Zhiming let out a soft "oh" and saw Qingning pouting and complaining.
"You only have one head nurse retiring, and you're giving her two farewell ceremonies. Is that really necessary?"
"That's two family gatherings in a row."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and explained, "The last time it was a spontaneous event, everyone chipped in."
"This time, the center is paying for it, so it's an official farewell and a welcome for the new students. Welcome, Head Nurse Zhan Qi."
Gu Qingning said dissatisfiedly: "It's a waste of time and money. The two operations can be combined into one."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "This can promote consumption. As high-income groups, we should eat, drink and shop more."
Gu Qingning couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's true. The people in your center are considered to be in the middle to high-income group."
"Tomorrow, your income will be higher, so you should set an example for promoting the national economic development."
"I often go shopping with you, don't we?"
Yu Zhiming sighed softly and said, "I'm already burdened with over 20 million in debt. Isn't my contribution enough?"
He added cheerfully, "It's only been a few months, and I've already bought a car, am rebuilding a bed truck, and now I've bought a big house."
"I'm really spending money like water."
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "What do you mean by that?"
"Those truly wealthy young men would spend 30 to 50 million on a limited-edition supercar."
At this time, the soup base in the hot pot boiled.
Yu Zhiming threw the entire plate of mutton into the pot and said casually, "The Ning'an Group controlled by your Gu family owns two listed companies, Ning'an Pharmaceutical and Ning'an Real Estate. I took a look before, and it seems the market value is 30 to 40 billion?"
"Qing Ning, what level do you and your brother belong to in the circle of rich second-generations?"
Gu Qingning picked up a piece of boiled mutton, dipped it in the sauce she had prepared, and ate it.
"Thanks to my Gu family background, I barely qualify as a second-generation rich. I only receive one or two million in family dividends every year."
"This may seem like a lot, but it's not enough for the truly wealthy young men and celebrities to party all night in a nightclub with their friends."
After a pause, Gu Qingning revealed slyly, "Zhiming, my brother is quite rich."
"For someone like him who holds an important position, in addition to his annual salary and family dividends, he also receives a family performance bonus."
"That performance bonus, considering my brother's job position, would have to be at least two to three million."
Gu Qingning picked up a large piece of mutton for Yu Zhiming and said with a chuckle, "This is still the bulk of my brother's income."
"When my brother was abroad, he applied for family entrepreneurship funds to start a business, and it was said to be quite successful."
"Before he returned to China, he sold the company, saying that after deducting the family's share of the profits, he personally made several million dollars."
"I estimate that my brother's current personal wealth is at least 50 million, if not 100 million."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and said, "I really didn't notice that. I feel like your brother is quite low-key and doesn't look like a billionaire."
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "We in the Gu family are actually quite low-key. When it comes to our children's education, such as elementary and middle school, we don't specifically send them to aristocratic private schools."
"Even if children don't have a natural talent for studying, we won't necessarily force them to go to university. They can develop according to their personal interests."
"but……"
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "We have a clan rule. You can choose not to go to college, but the family dividends for four years will be stopped. You need to support yourself by your own ability for four years."
She put some meatballs and vegetables into the hot pot, sighed softly, and introduced: "Zhiming, in fact, this family dividend has not always been there."
"An assessment is conducted every five years."
"If you've spent most of the past five years living off the fat of the land without making any real contribution, you'll lose your family dividends and only be given a monthly allowance of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan."
Yu Zhiming just grinned.
It’s different when you have money. The minimum living allowance given to those who live on idleness and wait for death is more than most ordinary people can earn in a month’s hard work.
This should be another form of "Why not eat meat?"
"Qing Ning, when is your five-year assessment?"
Gu Qingning picked up a fish ball for Yu Zhiming and asked with a smile, "Zhiming, are you worried that I won't pass the test?"
Yu Zhiming said frankly: "Given your current state, you have nothing serious to do. You should be considered idle, right?"
"How can there be nothing to do?"
Gu Qingning snorted unconvincedly: "I am the specially hired home furnishing designer of your eldest nephew's company."
"The labor compensation I received from your eldest nephew is already 10,000 or 20,000 yuan."
"Besides, isn't my most important job to take care of you?"
"I can't say I take care of everything, including your food, clothing, housing, and daily chores, but I'm doing most of them. Is that okay with you?"
Yu Zhiming asked in surprise: "Taking care of me can also be considered as your assessment work?"
"Of course!"
Gu Qingning said righteously, "Zhiming, the national law has recognized that being a full-time housewife is also a job. You wouldn't disagree, would you?"
Yu Zhiming quickly expressed his opinion: "I agree, I agree, I absolutely agree."
"Without a wife at home taking care of the children and the elderly, and arranging food, clothing, housing and transportation, how can a husband concentrate on his work?"
"As a line in a lyric says, the military medal is half mine and half yours."
Gu Qingning was satisfied and picked up some beef slices and beef balls for Yu Zhiming.
"As a girl, according to the rules of our Gu family, I can choose to be a full-time wife and mother after marriage."
"but……"
Gu Qingning further explained, "In this case, the assessment of me is transferred to my husband, that is, you."
"Zhiming, you are a famous doctor. This so-called assessment is as easy for you as eating and drinking water."
Yu Zhiming said happily: "In other words, your Gu family uses this method to encourage the girls in the family to either be capable themselves or find a capable husband."
"That's it."
Gu Qingning agreed with a smile, and then said proudly: "Zhiming, among all the sons-in-law of the Gu family, I dare not say that you will be the first in the future, but you will definitely be in the top three."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "If I do a good job, will you, as a full-time wife, receive extra rewards from your Gu family?"
Gu Qingning raised his eyebrows and smiled, "That's for sure. The better you do, the more valued I will be by the family, and my motivation will naturally increase as well."
Yu Zhiming sighed, "Your Gu family is really good at it. No wonder it has become more and more prosperous after hundreds of years."
Gu Qingning smiled lightly and said, "To put it simply, it means that I have enough financial resources to do whatever I want."
Yu Zhiming echoed, "Yes, it's ultimately determined by the economic foundation..."
After the two of them ate the hot pot and played around for a while to digest the food, Yu Zhiming returned to the bedroom.
Tonight, Yu Zhiming mainly sorted out and absorbed the diagnosis and treatment status of the registered patients he treated on Monday.
It has been three days since Monday.
At this time, the registered patients referred by Yu Zhiming to various departments have already been diagnosed, or have completed surgery, or are receiving some kind of treatment.
Yu Zhiming wants to make a detailed record of the patients' symptoms at the time, their examination results, current diagnosis and treatment plans, and treatment effects.
Each piece of such case information is an invaluable asset to doctors.
If you read 300 Tang poems carefully, you will be able to recite them even if you can't write poems. This sentence is also suitable for the field of medicine.
If a doctor can master thousands or even tens of thousands of medical records covering various diseases, even if he is not a universally recognized famous doctor, his medical skills cannot be underestimated...
A little after 9:30 in the evening, Yu Zhiming, who was immersed in organizing case data, was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the phone.
It’s a call from Gu Qingran.
Yu Zhiming picked up the phone and chuckled, "Dean Gu, what's going on? Is there a new patient?"
Gu Qingran's voice came from the phone.
"Zhiming, I'm not a patient. I want you to use your skills to catch an adulterer."
"Catch... bitch?!"
Yu Zhiming repeated it and blurted out, "Do you suspect Zhu Ying has done something wrong to you?"
"Yu Zhiming, what are you thinking? Zhu Ying and I are doing well. She won't betray me."
"He's a friend of mine."
Yu Zhiming let out a long sigh and said, "I have a friend, a classmate in this series, and that's me."
"But based on what I know about you, he should indeed be one of your friends."
"Specifically, what happened?"
Gu Qingran said slowly during the call: "This is a friend I met in the United States. He returned to China a few years ago and is now developing in Guangzhou and Shenzhen."
"He and his wife have been married for three years and have no children."
"He told me that he felt his wife was having an affair and was seeing someone else outside, but he had no concrete evidence."
"He did his own investigation, but he didn't find anything wrong."
Yu Zhiming said, "With suspicion in the heart, there is no trust, and there is definitely no love, and no children."
"Why don't you just get a divorce?"
"Your friend wants to find solid evidence of the other party's infidelity so he can get a bigger share of the property?"
Gu Qingran said on the phone, "This is a very realistic problem. I've been cheated on, and I can't let most of my hard-earned wealth be taken away from me."
"Besides, they both own a company, and a no-fault divorce would involve complicated financial issues."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and said, "What can I do? You can't ask me to fly to Guangzhou or Shenzhen to conduct surveillance, right?"
Gu Qingran laughed and said, "No need to go through so much trouble."
"My friend collected several recordings of his phone calls with his wife. He felt that his wife was probably with her adulterer when she spoke to him."
"My friend also has suspicions about who the adulterer is, but the pool of suspects is too broad, at least 20 or 30 people, making it difficult to conduct a targeted investigation."
"My friend has already collected the voices of these twenty or thirty people..."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming interrupted and said, "President Gu, you have planned this all along."
"Your friend prepared everything before you asked me for help."
"Aren't you worried that I might refuse?"
Gu Qingran said straight to the point on the phone: "Two hundred thousand. As long as you find that guy, my friend will give you two hundred thousand."
"Zhiming, how is it?"
Yu Zhiming snorted lightly, "Not very good."
"What if his wife hadn't cheated on him?"
"Or maybe his recording didn't capture any of that man's voice?"
"My hard work has been in vain."
Gu Qingran continued, "If nothing is discovered this time, my friend will find a chance to record some more calls."
"If you still don't find it next time, I'll give you the full 200,000 yuan."
Yu Zhiming nodded.
But the next moment, he pretended to be noble and said, "Hey, Dean Gu, why did you think of finding me such a job?"
"I'm a doctor, a bit of a celebrity. Using my expertise to arrest... cheap? Isn't that too low?"
Gu Qingran chuckled and said, "I got this inspiration from the amazing discovery you made last time you were on the phone with your uncle."
After a pause, he continued, "Zhiming, when I was abroad, this friend of mine helped me a lot."
"Just do me a favor this time."
Yu Zhiming pretended to be reluctant and said, "Since you said so, just send the recording..."
Yu Zhiming received dozens of audio files, turned on the bedroom speakers and adjusted the volume.
Afterwards, he adjusted his physical and mental state and immersed himself in listening to the recording...
To be honest, the hostess's voice is soft and sweet, which is pleasant to listen to.
As for the host's voice, it was a bit harsh.
The two people's conversations are mostly about work, and usually when the call is about to end, they will add a few words about life.
When Yu Zhiming heard the fifth recording, he finally made a big discovery after finding nothing.
The hostess's voice was clearly suppressed and trembling, with unnatural pauses and almost inaudible hums...
A scene appeared in front of Yu Zhiming's eyes.
A woman is like a dead leaf hanging on a branch in the cold wind, swaying involuntarily...
This scene is the real evidence.
Yu Zhiming listened attentively to any unusual sounds other than that of the hostess. Otherwise, the mission would only be half completed and it would be difficult to identify the third person.
Hard work pays off.
Yu Zhiming finally heard an involuntary low cry of "Ah".
It's just this sound...
Yu Zhiming listened to it more than ten times before finally confirming...
He calmed himself down and called Gu Qingran.
"It's a woman, so your friend can't find it!"
"Also, as a reminder, have your friend check their throat."
"His voice has changed slightly over the past few days, most likely due to an abnormality in the throat."
