The next day.

10:00 in the morning.

The Director's Office.

Yin Jian sat on the sofa, looking anxious, completely different from his usual confident demeanor.

Sitting opposite him was his uncle, the director of Eastern Hospital - Yin Lifeng. In private, some said that Yin Lifeng was the most resourceful director in the past thirty years.

Eastern Hospital was clearly treated by Yin Lifeng as his own personal domain, not allowing anyone else to interfere.

"Uncle..."

Seeing the darkened face of his uncle, Yin Lifeng, Yin Jian spoke tremblingly.

Indeed, within merely a day, the issue of Yin Jian's fraudulent academic credentials had rapidly spread across the internet.

In just one day, Yin Lifeng even received a call from the senior official in the Ministry, Mr. Gao.

Yin Jian couldn't imagine that just a day ago, he was still in the spotlight, planning to use his position as Song Siming's assistant as a stepping stone to move up the administrative path and eventually take over his uncle's role as director.

Now, how had he suddenly become the target of public outrage as a case of academic fraud?

Slap!

With a dark complexion, Yin Lifeng said nothing, instead suddenly slapping Yin Jian.

Yin Jian was stunned by this unexpected slap, looking at Yin Lifeng with disbelief.

Since childhood, although Yin Lifeng was his uncle, he was like a father figure to him, never even scolding him harshly. But now, suddenly striking him, it left his mind buzzing.

Yin Jian covered his slapped cheek, breathing heavily.

"I've told you to keep a low profile, not to bring those foreign practices back. Do you think this is the United States where money can solve everything?"

Yin Lifeng, looking at Yin Jian disappointedly, said, "I've been a director for over a decade. Although I've accumulated a huge family fortune, I have no children, so I've raised this nephew of mine as my own son."

Because of such indulgence, it led to Yin Jian's arrogant personality.

Yin Lifeng was, of course, aware of the academic fraud, and the senior staff at the hospital vaguely knew as well.

Because over the years, everyone knew what kind of person Yin Jian was. How could he possibly have the capability to attend a world-class university like Johns Hopkins?

But everyone chose to turn a blind eye, precisely because of the absolute authority that Yin Lifeng had established at Eastern Hospital!

"Uncle, you surely have a way, right?"

Covering his slapped cheek, Yin Jian begged Yin Lifeng. He was extremely afraid of this uncle.

Though he knew his uncle treated him as a son, some of his uncle's methods gave him chills.

One couldn't remain steadily seated as a director for over ten years without having perfected methods and a strong mind.

"The senior official in the Ministry, Mr. Gao, is already paying attention to this matter. You cannot stay in the hospital anymore. I've already spoken to Pfizer Biotechnology Company, and you'll be working there from now on."

Yin Lifeng said with a sigh.

He was somewhat surprised himself that the issue of his nephew's academic fraud had suddenly been exposed and had even attracted attention from the senior official in the Ministry.

It seemed almost like a carefully planned action against him.

As for Pfizer Biotechnology Company, it mainly deals with the import of pharmaceuticals and medical equipment, and a portion of Eastern Hospital's imports are procured from this company.

Each year, Pfizer Biotechnology Company manages to settle payments from Eastern Hospital amounting to billions.

And that's just one of Eastern Hospital's cooperative enterprises.

It's important to note that Eastern Hospital is immense in scale, with an annual turnover reaching tens of billions, consuming astronomical amounts in pharmaceuticals and medical equipment.

"What? The senior official in the Ministry, Mr. Gao, is paying attention? Why, Uncle? Is someone targeting me?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Jian panicked.

Although he's a disgrace, he's an intelligent one too. Mr. Gao's influence in this system is significant, surpassing that of the director of Eastern Hospital.

"I'm still investigating this, but for now, you'll be working at Pfizer from tomorrow, and keep a low profile during this time."

Yin Lifeng said with some frustration.

In Yin Lifeng's view, Mr. Gao's attention wasn't simple.

Maybe it was sending some kind of signal.

Having prepared so much for his nephew, it all now seemed to be in vain.

However, his tenacity was such that this event wasn't enough to undermine him.

"And also, control your spending; don't be so extravagant."

After pausing, Yin Lifeng continued to Yin Jian.

"Huh? Uncle, that's not necessary, is it?"

Upon hearing that Yin Lifeng intended to limit his spending, Yin Jian immediately looked dismayed. He was used to living extravagantly, and the sudden frugality was hard to stomach.

"Do you think the money you spend grows on trees? If you're caught splurging right after being exposed, what will people think of me?"

Yin Lifeng said, looking at Yin Jian.

"Understood..."

Yin Jian silently lowered his head, nodding in agreement, not daring to show any resistance in front of his cunning uncle.

"When you join Pfizer, the business there will be handed over to you."

Yin Lifeng said as if he had already planned it.

"Over the years, I've earned enough. It's the right time for me to step back, and it's good that you're not at the hospital anymore. When you get to Pfizer, focus more on settling down. I have no children, so eventually, all of this will be passed on to you."

Seeing that he had asserted control over Yin Jian, Yin Lifeng softened his tone, offering a sweetener.

"Yes, Uncle. I'll work hard."

Hearing these words from Yin Lifeng, the previously aggrieved Yin Jian felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Labelled as the most resourceful director in thirty years, even Yin Jian, as his nephew, had no idea how much money his uncle had.

Thinking about the possibility of it all eventually being his brought a rush of excitement.

Watching Yin Jian's dreamy expression, Yin Lifeng couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

Without any children and unable to trust others, his nephew was at least a relative, which was the best he could do in the situation.

With the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense recently, he had to transfer everything to his nephew as quickly as possible.

"And don't get involved with Xu Man Ni anymore."

Yin Lifeng advised.

"Her uncle is only Xu Wenqiang, a director of the operating room. It's not that serious, is it?"

Yin Jian was puzzled; he had been interested in Xu Man Ni for a long time.

This Xu Man Ni was probably the finest woman he had seen in all his years of flirting.

Her distinct aura from other women made Yin Jian drool with desire.

Conquering such a woman would definitely be exhilarating.

"It's not Xu Wenqiang, but this Xu Man Ni is related to Gao Jun. Given that alone, don't act recklessly."

Yin Lifeng briefly explained.

"Gao Jun? He's just an anesthesiologist; what's the big deal?"

Yin Jian said nonchalantly.

"It only shows that you need to use your brain more; don't underestimate anyone."

Despite his words, Yin Jian's careless attitude made Yin Lifeng doubt his intelligence.

Anger rose once again in Yin Lifeng's heart!

Forget it, he's my own nephew!

However, seeing Yin Jian still rubbing his already swollen cheek, Yin Lifeng's heart softened again.

"It's Mr. Gao. I can't say more, just keep that in mind."

Yin Lifeng said succinctly.

"What? Mr. Gao? Gao Jun, he?!!"

Even with the lowest intelligence, Yin Jian understood now. The shared last name and age difference suggested a father-son relationship.

He never expected that Gao Jun, seemingly unremarkable, would have such strong connections.
