Chapter 348: Chapter 348: No Need to Trouble Mr. Zhao
Hearing Zhao Wenkai taking the initiative to help, Wang Chun quickly added, "Dr. Si, Yaoyao, you guys don’t have to worry about the housing issue. Akai knows a lot of people. As long as you guys want to buy, he will definitely be able to help."
"Of course." Zhao Wenkai held his wine glass, leaning leisurely on the back of his chair, chuckling, "I know a lot of people. Not to ntion a house, even helping Dr. Si switch to a more prestigious hospital would be a trivial matter. I could even have Dr. Si imdiately as a director. However, it still depends on whether Dr. Si himself has this idea. If Dr. Si insists on relying on himself and does not want to take shortcuts, my help would be worthless, right?"
Zhao Wenkai’s gaze fell on Si Chen, speaking words that only Si Chen and he could understand.
Initially, Tong Yao was very pleased when Zhao Wenkai offered to help, as the purpose of this dinner was also for the housing issue. However, she wasn’t sure if she was overthinking or it was her misperception, but she felt that Zhao Wenkai’s words seed a bit strange, as if there was sothing else hidden in them.
Tong Yao’s gaze shifted between the two, pondering what exactly happened during the day.
Wang Chun also picked up on so things, and quietly tugged at Zhao Wenkai’s clothes, scolding, "Akai, what are you talking about? Dr. Si is doing well at the hospital, he’s competent, why would he switch jobs?"
Then she imdiately laughed it off, saying, "Dr. Si, Yaoyao, don’t take it seriously, Akai is just joking."
Tong Yao followed with a chuckle, just about to speak, but heard Si Chen say in a casual tone, "If it’s a shortcut built on one’s own solid efforts, naturally it’s good. But if it’s based on others, even if one stands at the top of the pyramid, they would only feel unstable and apprehensive. Without a good foundation, there is a risk of a house collapsing. I think I am more accustod to being down-to-earth, after all, being a doctor is not like other professions, a slight oversight can be a matter of life and death."
Zhao Wenkai suddenly burst into laughter, "Dr. Si is indeed an upright man."
The conversation between the two seed casual, yet seemingly hiding sothing deeper. Tong Yao quietly observed Zhao Wenkai’s expression, feeling that this man was inscrutable, in stark contrast to the image painted by Wang Chun.
It seems, not all n who deeply love their wives are necessarily upright and forthright.
The four of them finished their al with their own thoughts. Zhao Wenkai offered to drive Si Chen and Tong Yao ho, but was politely declined by Si Chen. Zhao Wenkai, however, wasn’t surprised, only putting his arm around Wang Chun’s shoulders with a faint smile.
"Dr. Si, don’t think too much. I may not be a great person, but I’ve always kept my promises to my wife. You guys don’t need to worry about the house issue, I’ll definitely help to make it happen."
Upon hearing his words, Wang Chun looked up at him with a joyful expression.
But Si Chen said, "We won’t trouble Mr. Zhao with the housing issue."
Although Tong Yao was a bit surprised by Si Chen’s words, she respected his decision.
"Yaoyao, don’t you guys really want to buy a house?" Wang Chun couldn’t understand why Tong Yao suddenly gave up.
In order not to make Wang Chun overthink, Tong Yao ca up with a credible excuse, "Your uncle is staying in the hospital where Ahchen works and Ahchen is his attending physician. If you guys help us buy a house this ti and others find out and stir things up at the hospital, it wouldn’t look good. No amount of explanation will clear it up."
Wang Chun had never thought of this beforehand, but now hearing Tong Yao’s words, she finally understood, "Yaoyao, I wasn’t considerate enough, I completely overlooked this point before."
