Chapter 274 Night Talk at the Shen Family
"What? Dad, are you serious? How could that be? He only graduated from a vocational school and is only twenty-one years old. Could there be some misunderstanding?"
When Shenyang returned home, he told Shenyang about Wu Tao's recent activities, and Shen Changshan, as the eldest son of the Shen family, was the first to raise questions.
He wasn't questioning his father, but rather unwilling to admit he'd misjudged him. He had such a great talent right in front of him, yet he chose to give up on him.
Shen Changshan worked at the Health Bureau of the Eastern District of Beijing, while Shen Changhe worked in the Logistics Department of the First People's Hospital of Beijing.
The Shen family members mostly work in the health and medical sector, so they are all too aware of the power of an expert doctor.
Their family has no shortage of officials and politicians, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.
The good thing is that family members can share information when needed; the bad thing is that family members can't concentrate their resources on one person.
If both Shen Changshan and Shen Changhe pursued official careers, then the resources of Shenyang City could not be entirely devoted to either son.
This is unfair to both sons, so when more people in the family are involved in politics, disagreements are bound to arise.
If someone could help them through other channels at this time, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
In addition, since they work in the health department, they naturally understand the role of a good doctor.
This expert almost became the eldest son-in-law of the Shen family.
If they hadn't been so aloof and had instead chosen to keep their promise and marry Wu Tao, then Shen Changshan and Shen Changhe would have been the ones to benefit from the Shen family.
Shenyang Cheng did not blame his eldest son for his loss of composure. To be honest, Shenyang Cheng also lost his composure when he saw Wu Tao's information in the office today.
Shen Yangcheng took out the few pages of documents from his briefcase and handed them to Shen Changshan. Then, the few pages circulated among the Shen family members.
Shen Yuchu's hands trembled violently after receiving the documents.
It was as if those few pages of paper were burning Shan Qian's hands, but in the end she still picked them up and read them carefully.
Shen Yupei reviewed the documents with Shen Yuchu.
The document details the patients Wu Tao recently treated at the Kyoto Steel Plant No. 2's factory hospital, along with their medical reports.
The information reveals numerous experts praising and recognizing Wu Tao's medical skills. Such high praise from so many experts cannot be false, indicating that Wu Tao's medical expertise is genuine.
After reviewing the materials, especially the endorsements from renowned experts, the Shen family had to admit that Wu Tao was indeed a very skilled doctor.
From Shenyang City, Shen Yuchu's mother, Sun Li, her eldest brother, Shen Changshan, her sister-in-law, her second brother, Shen Changhe, her second sister-in-law, Shen Yuchu, and Shen Yupei—the whole family remained silent.
Despite the large number of people in the room, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Everyone, please share your thoughts. Yu Chu, I want to ask you, do you still have feelings for Wu Tao?"
As the patriarch of the family, Shenyang Cheng directly asked Shen Yuchu.
"If you're going to be attacked, you have to stand up straight." As a politician, Shenyang City has its own code of conduct. Now that he knows he made a mistake in his initial judgment, he should correct it.
Shen Yuchu felt a moment of disorientation upon hearing her father's question.
To be honest, Shen Yuchu and Wu Tao also had a sweet romance back in Wujiazhuang.
At that time, Shen Yuchu never imagined that she would have the opportunity to return to the capital.
Later, when she saw in the newspaper that the college entrance examination had been reinstated, she hesitated. But in the end, in order to return home, she studied hard and finally got into university.
When she returned to the capital, her family members had all returned to work. At this point, although Shen Yuchu felt that Wu Tao was no longer the same person she was, she never considered breaking off the engagement.
Until her family told her that she deserved a better man and that marrying Wu Tao in the future would not do her any good.
After hearing such things so many times, and seeing so many outstanding boys every day at university, she realized that...
Thinking back to Wu Tao, who stayed in his hometown village, Shen Yuchu really felt that marrying him was not a good choice.
When her family asked her to break off her engagement with Wu Tao, she reluctantly agreed. Furthermore, her family offered Wu Tao a job and a Beijing residency permit as compensation, making Shen Yuchu feel that she no longer owed the Wu family anything.
Until that day when I met Wu Tao at the train station, less than half a year later, both of us had changed a lot.
Although Shen Yuchu was very beautiful before, she was an educated youth in the village, and her clothes and appearance were very simple.
She wears the most fashionable clothes now, and with her excellent maintenance, she is significantly more beautiful than she was back then.
She had thought that seeing her would make the other person feel inferior. But Wu Tao surprised her instead; although the other person's clothes were unfashionable, she had an indescribable charm.
At the time, Shen Yuchu thought she was overthinking things, but now she understands that it was clearly Wu Tao's shrewd and knowledgeable demeanor.
It is precisely because he knows his own capabilities that he doesn't care about other people's opinions or status.
It can only be said that the other party was limited by the environment in the countryside before, but now that they have come to the capital, it is like a dragon entering the sea and soaring in the sky.
Before today, Shen Yuchu had never regretted breaking off her engagement with Wu Tao; in fact, she was quite glad she had made the decision.
Several male classmates at school are pursuing Shen Yuchu, and she accepted the advances of one of them a few days ago.
The other party's family is also involved in politics in Beijing. After they both graduate from university, they can work together to build a successful career.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yuchu didn't even have time to tell her family her thoughts before she saw Wu Tao's current achievements.
Shen Yuchu is in an awkward situation. She had originally planned to date him for a while longer before bringing him home.
After asking the question, Shenyang City waited for Shen Yuchu's reply, only to see Shen Yuchu's face flushed red.
"What's wrong, Yu Chu? Dad isn't forcing you to go find Wu Tao, I just wanted to ask what you think?"
Shen Yuchu said sadly.
"Dad, I just agreed to be a boyfriend to a male classmate in college."
When Shenyang Cheng heard that his daughter had found a boyfriend, he felt a little sorry but didn't say much.
He originally wanted to give his family a chance, but since his daughter already has a boyfriend, he decided to let it go.
Or rather, Shenyang City wasn't actually sure if Wu Tao would agree to continue marrying Shen Yuchu.
It's said that the more capable a man is, the less likely he is to go back to an old flame. Wu Tao is so young and has such amazing medical skills; the possibility of him marrying Shen Yuchu after being jilted was already slim.
Shenyang City didn't want to continue discussing this topic. Now that Shen Yuchu had a new boyfriend, the Shen family would no longer allow her to try to reconcile with Wu Tao.
But just because Shenyang City doesn't want to is not the same as Shen Changshan's desire to.
Shen Changshan, the eldest son of the Shen family, has always hoped that he could lead the family to greater heights in the future.
He also knew that his father's resources would help him climb to the level of a full-fledged division chief in the future, and that the deputy director-general level would be his limit if he worked hard.
To continue reaching new heights, he needs to keep working hard.
