Sent to the countryside, I turned the health center into a top-tier hospital.

Tianhai Hotel, Presidential Suite.

Chen Ping had just lain down in bed when his phone rang.

I picked up my phone and saw that it was a message from Cui Ying, which turned out to be an awesome GIF.

Chen Ping smiled and put his phone away.

Feeling the soft mattress, Chen Ping slowly fell asleep!

The plot continues the next day when visiting Xiao Lei in prison.

The next morning, the sky was bright and clear, and the morning light streamed into the presidential suite through the floor-to-ceiling windows, filling the room with warmth.

Chen Ping slept soundly through the night without any dreams, and his body and mind were completely refreshed.

He had just opened his eyes when his phone on the bedside table suddenly rang, its crisp ring breaking the tranquility of the early morning.

Chen Ping picked up his phone casually, and the name flashing on the screen was Su Meng.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised, then pressed the answer button, his tone calm: "Hello, Su Meng?"

On the other end of the phone came Su Meng's voice, thick with nasal congestion and suppressed sobs, revealing endless exhaustion and helplessness, completely devoid of her usual cool and lively tone: "Chen Ping, could... could you please do me a favor?"

Hearing the odd tone in her voice, Chen Ping instantly sobered up and asked seriously, "What happened? Tell me slowly."

Su Meng took a deep breath, suppressing the stinging in her eyes, and said weakly, her voice trembling, "My dad is in trouble. He was taken away and detained yesterday because of a case involving a heart stent that was illegally installed."

"I rushed over early this morning, hoping to see him at the detention center, but the controls there are extremely strict. My application for family visitation was rejected outright, and they wouldn't let me in at all."

Su Meng was at her wit's end and filled with despair.

All her connections were rendered useless in the face of city-level cases and strict judicial oversight.

"I know you have a wide network of connections and are very capable. Could you put in a good word for me and let me meet my father?"

Su Meng spoke with pleading and utmost humility.

Su Meng knew that Chen Ping was definitely capable. Last time she was isolated for investigation, Chen Ping used his connections to arrange a meeting with her.

"I've heard about your father's situation. I can call and ask him for help," Chen Ping said calmly. "Where are you now? Send me your location, and I'll come find you."

Su Meng on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, both surprised and delighted, and asked with a hint of astonishment, "You're also in Tianhai? When did you arrive?"

"I came here yesterday to take care of some personal matters," Chen Ping explained casually.

Upon learning that Chen Ping was in Tianhai City, Su Meng's anxious heart instantly calmed down, as if she had grasped her only support. She quickly reported her location at the intersection.

Chen Ping quickly washed up, changed into clean clothes, left the hotel, and took a taxi straight to where Su Meng was.

Half an hour later, the two met.

Su Meng had dark circles under her eyes and bloodshot eyes, clearly indicating that she hadn't slept all night. Her face was haggard and forlorn.

Her former sophisticated and capable demeanor was completely gone, and she exuded a fragile air about to collapse.

The two stopped beside a breakfast shop by the roadside.

Before Chen Ping could ask, Su Meng spoke up, "Chen Ping, I know my dad really made a mistake this time. He illegally imported substandard stents to make a profit."

"He has harmed many patients and broken the law. He must be punished. I will not defend him, nor will I ask him to be exonerated."

"But he's my father. Even if he breaks the law, I still can't rest easy."

"I just want to go in and see him, ask him about the specifics, and see if I can help him cooperate with the investigation, make amends for his mistakes, and fulfill my duty as a child."

Su Meng could distinguish right from wrong, and she knew even better that Su Wenzong was doomed this time.

He'll definitely go to jail, but Su Meng hopes that through her own efforts, she can reduce the number of years Su Wenzong has to serve.

"I came here yesterday specifically for substandard coronary stents. There were dozens of patients, more than a dozen of whom were critically ill and almost died."

"If these patients die from substandard heart stents, then your father's fate will not be as simple as just going to jail; it will definitely be a death sentence."

"Fortunately, I arrived in time and saved these patients. So far, there have been no deaths."

Chen Ping said.

Upon hearing this, Su Meng looked at Chen Ping in shock, then said with guilt in her eyes, "Chen Ping, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you before, which caused you to go to Siping Township."

"If I had believed you sooner and convinced my father sooner, this wouldn't have happened."

Su Meng felt very guilty and remorseful.

"It's no use saying anything now. I'll try making a call, but it might not work."

Chen Ping didn't know if calling Li Jizhong would make a difference.

After all, the issue of the substandard cardiac stent that Su Wenzong was involved in was too serious.

"Thank you..." Su Meng's eyes reddened.

Chen Ping took out his phone and called Li Jizhong.

The call was quickly answered, and Li Jizhong's gentle voice came through: "Dr. Chen, what's the matter that you're calling so early in the morning?"

"Secretary Li, it's like this: Su Wenzong, the president of the People's Hospital, is implicated in the matter of the coronary stent and has now been detained."

"You know about our relationship, so I thought..."

"Dr. Chen, I think you know how big this matter is, so it will be very difficult for me to release Su Wenzong," Li Jizhong said before Chen Ping could finish speaking.

"No, no, no, Secretary Li, you've misunderstood. I didn't ask you to release him. It's just that my ex-wife wants to visit her father."

Chen Ping quickly explained.

After listening, Li Jizhong smiled and said, "I understand. We can make an exception within the scope of regulations. I'll contact the detention center right away and ask them to allow family visits. You can go directly there."

"Thank you, Secretary Li." Chen Ping said thank you and then hung up the phone.

With just a short phone call, Chen Ping easily secured the visitation rights that Su Meng had been desperately trying to obtain.

Looking at Chen Ping's calm and composed demeanor, Su Meng's eyes were filled with gratitude. The huge weight in her heart finally lifted, and she whispered, "Thank you, really, thank you so much."

"Don't mention it."

Chen Ping smiled faintly, "Let's go, I'll go with you."

The two traveled together by car to the Tianhai City Detention Center.

The detention center was solemn and dignified, with towering iron gates and tight security, exuding a cold and oppressive atmosphere.

After the car came to a stop, the two walked side by side to the entrance of the visiting hall.

Just as I was about to step inside, I happened to run into a group of people coming out.

The young man at the head of the group was tall and well-dressed, with a calm and composed demeanor and a nonchalant air about him. He was none other than Xiao Lei.

Clearly, Xiao Lei had just finished his visit, ended the meeting, and was preparing to leave.

The moment their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze.

The moment Su Meng saw Xiao Lei, extreme disgust and overwhelming anger surged in her eyes. Her emotions tensed instantly, and her nails dug into her palms.
