"What?!"
Chen Wenbin was instantly stunned.
His eyes widened in disbelief. "I prescribed medication normally, there's absolutely no problem. You can't just believe rumors!"
The man in the lead said coldly, "Don't worry, we don't believe rumors lightly. We will find concrete evidence for everything you've done."
"Gulp!"
Chen Wenbin couldn't help but swallow, his face filled with panic.
He never expected that his attempt to make Chen Mo look foolish would backfire and draw attention to himself.
Ignoring Chen Wenbin, the man turned his gaze back to Chen Mo. "Director Chen, we shouldn't have believed others. This was our mistake, please forgive us this time. We will work hard from now on and will not wrongly accuse any doctor again."
Chen Mo was also puzzled as to why their attitudes had changed so drastically after their brief absence.
However, seeing their sincere apologies, Chen Mo decided not to pursue the matter further.
He waved his hand. "You may go. Don't disturb our work."
"Yes, yes! We're leaving now." The man nodded quickly.
Then, his gaze fell on Chen Wenbin. "Doctor Chen, you'll come with us."
"What did I do? Why should I be investigated when he isn't? I'm not convinced!" Chen Wenbin questioned angrily.
However, these men were not about to engage in a lengthy discussion with Chen Wenbin.
Two men grabbed Chen Wenbin and led him out of the department. No matter how much Chen Wenbin struggled, it was useless.
"What are you all standing around for? Let's go do rounds." Chen Mo instructed Yang Lan and the others after seeing Chen Wenbin being taken away.
Everyone finally snapped back to reality and left the department.
Just as Chen Mo was about to go on rounds, Jiang Hongwen suddenly appeared at the entrance of the consultation room.
"Director Chen, I heard about what just happened. Please don't mind it. They tend to act like this. I've already reprimanded them," Jiang Hongwen said apologetically.
Chen Mo understood, realizing why their attitudes had changed so dramatically.
He then waved his hand. "It's fine, I didn't take it to heart. As they say, a clear conscience fears no accusation."
"Yes, yes, yes. I know Director Chen's character very well. If someone told me you took bribes, I wouldn't believe it even if I were beaten to death," Jiang Hongwen said with a smile.
"Does Vice President Jiang need something?" Chen Mo asked.
Jiang Hongwen smiled awkwardly. "Director Chen, do you remember that President Zhou?"
"Zhou Yunsheng?"
"Yes, that's him. They've already given me the check and have been urging me for days about when his father-in-law's surgery will be."
Chen Mo checked the elderly patient's lab results and found that they met the criteria for surgery. He also looked at the operating room schedule for the day and saw an available slot in the afternoon.
He then said, "Let's do it this afternoon then."
"Alright, I'll go inform their family to sign the consent form for the surgery," Jiang Hongwen said, his face lighting up with joy.
Jiang Hongwen was very dedicated to this matter, as it concerned the hospital's charity fund.
With this funding, many difficult families could have their medical needs addressed.
The surgery in the afternoon proceeded very smoothly.
During the operation, Chen Mo was shocked to discover that after his breakthrough, all his organs had been significantly enhanced.
His vision when observing the patient's internal condition was even better than a microscope.
After the surgery, there was a period of observation and follow-up examinations.
However, after the operation, Chen Mo was very confident that there would be no issues.
Chen Mo returned to the consultation room, intending to drink some water and rest.
Suddenly, he received a call from Du Huili.
As soon as he answered, Du Huili's anxious voice came through, "Chen Mo, there was a burglar at home. Everything has been ransacked."
Chen Mo frowned. "Sister Li, don't be nervous. As long as no one was hurt, what was stolen?"
"I didn't lose anything. The twenty thousand yuan cash you gave me last time is still here. But everything is in disarray, and even your room, the bed frame has been lifted off the ground."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo suddenly understood.
He realized that these people were not after money, but were targeting the items he brought back from the auction yesterday.
However, Chen Mo had not kept those items in the rental apartment; he had hidden them under the car seats.
This was to prevent anyone from trying to get their hands on them.
"Sister Li, since nothing was stolen, that's good. I'll book a room at a nearby hotel. You and Xiao Wen can stay there for the night, and I'll find a cleaning company to tidy up the house."
"Aren't you coming back to see if anything of yours was stolen?" Du Huili asked on the phone.
Chen Mo replied, "I only have a few clothes, nothing worth stealing."
After hanging up, Chen Mo booked a room for Du Huili and arranged for the mother and daughter to stay there.
He then sent a text message to Yu Honglong, asking him to find a cleaning company to clean the rental apartment.
After making these arrangements, Chen Mo asked the Old Ancestor, "Old Ancestor, what exactly were those few items you had me bid on that day? They made the Ouyang family go as far as to steal them."
"Magical artifacts," the Old Ancestor's voice replied slowly.
However, these two words shocked Chen Mo!
"What? Magical artifacts?! Like the ones in the TV shows, the ones that can fly and burrow into the ground?" Chen Mo asked in astonishment.
"What are you thinking? The kind you're talking about probably have spirit artifacts with sentient beings within them."
"These are just ordinary magical artifacts. But to ordinary people like you, they are already considered rare treasures."
Chen Mo couldn't help but ask again, "What are these things used for?"
"The jade tablet, judging by the runes carved on it, should be a defensive formation. Once activated, no one within a hundred meters can approach."
"That powerful!" Chen Mo was filled with awe.
"This is just one magical artifact. When you truly step into cultivation, you'll realize that you wouldn't even pick up such things if they were lying on the ground."
Chen Mo thought about it for a moment, still feeling uneasy, as it was a magical artifact after all.
In the end, he decided to go and check.
He arrived at the underground parking lot, which was the employee parking area. It was not yet the end of working hours, so it was empty, with no one around.
However, as Chen Mo approached his vehicle, he suddenly noticed a motorcycle parked in front of his car.
Seeing the figure wearing a black helmet, Chen Mo's brow furrowed.
Because he recognized that this person was the assassin who had tried to attack him outside the funeral home!
"It's him?" A cold glint appeared in Chen Mo's eyes.
However, to his surprise, why was this person here? Could the other party also be related to the Ouyang family?
