Chapter 23 (2/2)

Ling Hong Tao understood he was going to lose his job; Sweats were raining down from her forehead, causing his s.h.i.+rt to be wet.

At this moment, Pang Jing Dong stood out and said, ”I'm sorry, general manager. Previously, I volunteered to help Manager Ling to chase this debt, but as I was too busy during this period, I haven't got the chance to do it.”

”You?” Shen Jia Yao looked at Pang Jing Dong, with a doubtful expression she asked, ”This does not belong to your responsibility, why did you volunteer to do it?”

”Doctor Di works at the central hospital. I have a cla.s.smate who's her superior. I was thinking to use this connection to resolve the issue.”

Pang Jing Dong was totally lying. He did not discuss it with Ling Hong Tao, and his cla.s.smate was non-existent. The reason Pang Jing Dong was doing this, was to earn a favor from Ling Hong Tao.

Since Pang Jing Dong started working at the company, Ling Hong Tao had been unfriendly toward him for no particular reason, plus Pang Jing Dong's lazy att.i.tude at work which caused Ling Hong Tao to be more biased against him. According to Zhou Tong's intel, Ling Hong Tao often bad mouthed Pang Jing Dong in front of the company's executives.

Confucius once taught, when facing your enemies, you must recompense injustice with justice, which meant if someone gave you a kick, you must return a punch, this was the right principle. However, sometimes, it was more effective to recompense injustice with kindness, especially when the person would be useful to you; What Pang Jing Dong was doing belonged to the later option. Besides that, it was not exactly Pang Jing Dong's responsibility, so even if he were not able to complete the task, he would not be blamed. In other words, this was a game with zero cost.

Shen Jia Yao roughly guessed Pang Jing Dong's intention, but she did not plan to expose it, ”When do you plan to do it?”

”After the meeting!”

When the meeting was dismissed, Ling Hong Tao gave Pang Jing Dong a grateful glance.

As for Doctor Di, after the meeting, Pang Jing Dong gave the hospital a call and pretended to be her friend. He learned that she was on a night s.h.i.+ft since yesterday and would be finis.h.i.+ng work soon. Glancing at his watch and saw that the time was sufficient, Pang Jing Dong immediately went to her workplace.

”Is Doctor Di in?” Pang Jing Dong asked a few doctors in the room as he arrived.

One of the doctors replied, ”She's still in the ward. She would be back here soon to change as she was about to finish her work! You are…”

”Oh, I'm her friend!” Pang Jing Dong did not declare his purpose, to leave some respect for Doctor Di. However, when he said the word 'friend', the people in the room started smiling weirdly.

”What kind of patient is this?! Didn't even understand after I've explained it so many times. Serves him right to be gravely ill. It's better if he dies soon!” A loud voice was heard coming from outside of the room. Following the voice was a doctor wearing a large white coat, who entered the room and walked angrily toward her desk while slamming her notebook onto the desk.

”This woman's voice is too loud!” Pang Jing Dong was shocked from her entry, who felt his ears were still buzzing from it.

Another doctor looked at the woman and twisted his mouth at Pang Jing Dong's direction.

”You are…” The woman looked at Pang Jing Dong with her squinting eyes.

”You must be Doctor Di? I'm from Zheng Dong Renovation Company!” Pang Jing Dong reached out his hand toward her.

”What's wrong with you guys?” Doctor Di frowned her eyebrows, ignoring his gesture for a handshake, and said with an annoyed tone, ”Didn't I tell you guys many times before? All my money has been used as funds in the stock market. There was a huge drop in the stock values a while ago, so my funds are frozen. I'll pay you when I earned some money!”

Since Doctor Di had already said so, Pang Jing Dong stopped being polite to her, ”We have already given you a long time due to your circ.u.mstance. Furthermore, the values of the stock market went up recently, so you should have earned back your capital!”

”Can't I earn more money?”

”How much is more money?”

”Until I say so!”

”What if you say you will pay us after the value went up by 10000%?”
