Du Zhongming is the same. After such a process, it's impossible for anyone from the Ling Zhenfei Foundation to make any demands. At most, local netizens would be organized to verify the situation.

The entire news was gathered by searching online and questioning those involved, but no one actually contacted Ling Zhenfei or He Lingxiu.

"So, what was Mr. Du Zhongming's condition like at the time?" the journalist continued to ask.

Du Zhongming's wife said, "His condition was okay; he could get out of bed and cook. As long as it wasn't heavy physical labor, he could manage."

"And when did He Lingxiu come here to help with the treatment?" the host asked.

"It was just over twenty days before the New Year, she came with a young girl."

"How did she treat him?"

"Acupuncture, medication, things like that."

"So when He Linxiu left, did Mr. Du Zhongming's body show any changes?" the journalist asked.

"No changes, he was still the same. Then He Lingxiu left, saying he was cured, and it was fine as long as he took his medicine on time."

The journalist inquired, "Was there any charge or did she set any conditions, like prohibiting the patient from drinking alcohol?"

"No mention of anything about not drinking alcohol. There was no charge, but we did slip her a big red envelope with ten thousand yuan ourselves."

Ling Zhenfei was so angry at this point that he nearly smashed his computer. Isn't this just lying with your eyes open? Almost none of what was said is true.

First of all, if Du Zhongming's health was fine, and he could get out of bed and cook, there's no way netizens would vote for him. When the fan club people investigated, Du Zhongming was nearly done for.

When He Lingxiu left, she would definitely have given medical advice, including writing down the medicine prescriptions on a piece of paper; this was He Linxiu's habit.

And regarding fees, what kind of person is He Lingxiu? She grew up in a rural area, and even treated her locals for just a few bucks.

Too kind-hearted, not to mention charging them; seeing the Du Family's destitute state, it's fortunate for her to not leave them some money, let alone a ten thousand yuan red packet. Where would a family like Du's get that?

Ling Zhenfei's hands were trembling with rage; if he wasn't acquainted with Du Zhongming, it would be fine. What matters most is that He Lingxiu helped them for more than ten days.

Seeing things like this, anyone would be deeply disheartened. What kind of situation is this? Ling Zhenfei suddenly thought of a few parable stories and lost his mood to keep watching.

He opened Weibo and wrote a line there: "The Farmer and the Snake, Mr. Dongguo and the Wolf, Hao Jian and the Old Lady."

After shutting down Weibo, Ling Zhenfei returned to He Linxiu's room. At this moment, He Lingxiu was already awake, sitting on the bed, motionless and seemingly deep in thought.

Luckily, He Lingxiu hadn't seen the earlier news; if she had, she'd probably fall ill from anger.

Even someone like Ling Zhenfei, who has seen much of the world, was furious; not to mention He Lingxiu.

"Brother Afei, what's the situation now?"

Ling Zhenfei sat beside He Lingxiu and said, "There's no situation; as long as I'm here, it's not a problem."

He Lingxiu said aggrievedly, "I just went on Weibo and saw that they are all cursing me."

Ling Zhenfei gently embraced He Lingxiu, saying, "It's okay; for every person who curses you, there's someone who loves you. You can't just focus on those who curse you and ignore those who care for you."

He Lingxiu cried woefully in Ling Zhenfei's embrace, saying, "What should I actually do? Why are there so many mean people? I've done enough already."

Ling Zhenfei patted her back and said, "I know, I know. The greater your ability, the greater your responsibility. If you've received much praise, you must bear a fair share of defamation."

He Lingxiu simply cried in Ling Zhenfei's embrace, her tears saturating his chest.

At this moment, Ling Zhenfei's phone rang; it was Lin Yi calling, and he answered the phone.

On the other end of the line, Lin Yi was very agitated, initially swearing before saying, "This is infuriating, this is infuriating; what kind of people are these? Treating someone for free has turned into a fault."

Ling Zhenfei knew Lin Yi had just finished watching the special coverage on Tangcheng News and was quite angry.

This Tangcheng News was utterly unreasonable, having made a conclusion without any investigation.

Ling Zhenfei said, "I didn't finish watching. What did it say at the end?"

Lin Yi said, "You have no idea how infuriating it is; they even claimed He Lingxiu's prescriptions had issues. Isn't that incredibly annoying?"

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, "Prescription problems? How did this family suddenly become so smart? Now it's dead without any proof; if they don't produce the prescription He Lingxiu wrote, no one knows if the medication is genuine."

Lin Yi said, "Exactly. But Tangcheng News didn't conduct any investigation and took their word for it, which I find astonishing."

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's more about the alcohol than the prescription itself; the man drank himself to death. No remedy would work. Let's discuss what actions we should take now."

Lin Yi thought for a bit and replied, "Since Tangcheng News, as a mainstream media, reported on this, we're very passive now. Initially, we thought Tangcheng News would be impartial.

But knowing this news is unrealistic, it's unexpected that mainstream media would produce such false reports."

Ling Zhenfei said, "With the usual practices, what should we do? Haven't you been learning about public relations lately?"

Lin Yi replied, "I'll work hard to guide the online narrative; since they're fabrications, they won't have evidence. We live in a society that relies heavily on concrete proof; without it, the impact is minimal.

By the way, boss, do we have any concrete proof? If we have it, it would be very beneficial to reversing the disadvantage."

Ling Zhenfei pondered for a moment and said, "The director of Tangcheng Hospital once mentioned that Du Zhongming had undergone an examination earlier, but it wasn't done at their hospital.

However, there must be relevant records from that examination; if we can find that information to show Du Zhongming's condition before He Lingxiu treated him, it'll be clear to see."

Lin Yi said, "Then what are we waiting for? Quickly, go find it; it's crucial."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, I'll go look into it now."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei settled He Lingxiu down and advised her to avoid using her phone and stay away from any electronic devices, just to rest well.

After getting He Lingxiu's agreement, Ling Zhenfei left the room, hailed a cab, and headed straight to Tangcheng Hospital, making a call to Guo Shan along the way.

"Mr. Ling, I knew you would call me; I'm already organizing the information, knowing you'll need it."

Ling Zhenfei was surprised to learn that Guo Shan had anticipated it in advance.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Mr. Guo, thank you so much. By the way, what kind of information are you preparing?"

Guo Shan replied, "Preparing the information from when Du Zhongming came for treatment, we have several examination reports."
