What is Li Jianwei's relationship with me? He's a student I brought in. But why go so far out of his way, having my own Secretary relay a message to me? It means one thing: he also doesn't want to cooperate with that group anymore. However, at the time, likely in front of that Deputy Director of the Second Affiliated Hospital, he couldn't refuse too obviously, so he took such a big detour. Li Jianwei was just using this method to express his support for me, his student.
Du Heng certainly understood. He immediately said to the Secretary, "Let's not meet. Besides, I have to go back to my family home on the mountain to visit my big brother and sister-in-law. I don't have time."
Given Du Heng's earlier statement, the Secretary wasn't surprised to hear this. He nodded and said, "Alright. This afternoon, there's another discussion meeting with other hospitals. I will convey your opinion, Dean, to Professor Li."
