Chapter 154: 125 Lu Han is excellent, liking him means you have good taste (2 more updates)_1 Chapter 154: 125 Lu Han is excellent, liking him means you have good taste (2 more updates)_1 Jiang Tao’s vexations were not limited to Jiang Qimeng; there was also Jiang Shanshan.

When Jiang Tao and his daughter Jiang Qimeng were embroiled in a dispute, He Wenhui collaborated with her husband Jiang Wu to persuade Jiang Shanshan to resign from Huanan Hospital.

Initially, Jiang Tao’s arrangement for Jiang Shanshan to work at Huanan Hospital was something He Wenhui was dissatisfied with.

Even though He Wenhui couldn’t quite grasp the hierarchical system of hospitals, just from the names, even if both were public hospitals, she felt that the Central Hospital sounded more prestigious.

And indeed, it was.

Central Hospital was a top-tier (Class 3, Grade A) hospital, while Huanan Hospital was a second-tier (Class 2, Grade A), and simply based on the ranking, the Central Hospital was indeed better.

He Wenhui didn’t understand the nuances, but in her opinion, if her husband’s elder brother was the dean of the best hospital in Hua City and Shanshan was his blood niece, why couldn’t she be admitted into the best hospital?

And why was that?

Naturally, it was because of insufficient educational qualifications. Jiang Shanshan’s credentials were barely good enough to get her into a second-tier hospital, which had already involved pulling strings. If she were to be directly admitted to a top-tier hospital, could Jiang Tao still firmly hold his position as the dean of the Central Hospital?

He Wenhui didn’t realize that each system had its own management practices. It’s not as if the hospital belonged to the Jiang Family and could hire whomever they wished.

Even though Jiang Tao was the dean and had some privileges, he had to follow regulations. If he did something too outrageous, the public would not turn a blind eye, and he would be the first to suffer the consequences.

He Wenhui’s paternal family, as Zhao Xinlan had said, was a distinguished Literary Family, but just like parents who graduated from prestigious universities and gave birth to an academically poor child, He Wenhui was the only underachiever in the He family.

Both of her grandparents were museum directors, her maternal grandparents were university professors, and her own parents were notable scholars in the literary world.

He Wenhui was the youngest daughter in the He family, spoiled but quite dull-witted.

Otherwise, with the He family’s influence, she ought to have married a man full of literary grace, yet she unexpectedly chose Jiang Wu, who had made a good amount of money in the seafood business.

Furthermore, when Jiang Wu pursued her, he was very generous with money, which completely entranced her.

Ignoring her family’s objections, she stubbornly married into the Jiang Family.

With no other options, the He family relocated to Beijing, and likely because they really couldn’t see eye to eye with He Wenhui, and looked down even more on Jiang Wu for his materialistic nature, they ceased all contact with the couple.

After living with Jiang Wu for so many years, He Wenhui had become even more calculating and mercenary.

She was completely incompatible with the distinguished Literary Family of the Hes.

In recent years, even during the New Year, the He family didn’t invite the couple to Beijing for the reunion.

He Wenhui and Jiang Wu were on the same side; they both insisted on Jiang Shanshan quitting her job and staying away from Lu Han. Since he looked down on her, there was no need to shamelessly throw herself at him.

In He Wenhui’s eyes, a woman should, like her, be reserved, waiting for a man to pursue her, and only if she was satisfied could she nod her head and agree to marry down.

He Wenhui had this privilege because she had met Jiang Wu, who was deeply infatuated with her. However, with Jiang Shanshan and Lu Han, the infatuated one was not Lu Han, but Jiang Shanshan.

Seeing that she could not convince her parents and that crying was futile, they persisted in their demand for her to resign and keep away from Lu Han.

Jiang Shanshan, who refused to comply, cried and ran to seek Jiang Tao’s help.

Jiang Tao was already irritated, and Jiang Shanshan’s sobbing only added to his annoyance.

But he had just sent his own daughter away in anger; he couldn’t just ignore his niece as well, could he?

He was getting on in years, but he was still the head of the Jiang Family.

“Why are you crying over such a trivial matter?” Jiang Tao frowned and handed a piece of tissue to Jiang Shanshan, asking her to wipe away her tears.

Then, Jiang Tao summoned Jiang Wu and He Wenhui.

“You two can’t ruin Shanshan’s future over a man. I arranged for Shanshan to go to Huanan Hospital first because her educational qualifications weren’t enough, so we had to make it up with experience,” he said.

“With the experience of working in a second-tier hospital for over five years, I’ll find a way to get her into a top-tier hospital, even if by then, I’m no longer the dean, it will still be possible.”

“Can’t you understand the painstaking efforts of your elder brother?”

The couple bowed their heads in silence, unwilling to speak.

Indeed, they had not considered all these factors.

He Wenhui even naively thought that since Jiang Tao was already the head of the hospital, he naturally could have whoever he wanted.

Turns out, it wasn’t so.

Then what’s the point of being the head of the hospital?

But this was something she really didn’t dare say in front of Jiang Tao.

Jiang Wu doted on her very much, with only one stipulation—she must not have any conflicts with his elder brother and must respect him; aside from that, he indulged her in everything.

Over the years, He Wenhui had indeed held Jiang Tao in high esteem.

And she was convinced by what Jiang Tao said.

“Besides, Lu Han was already outstanding and excellent at his job. Shanshan likes him, which shows our Shanshan has good taste. Before, I even thought about setting Mengmeng up on a blind date with him.”

“So, if Shanshan can win Lu Han’s heart, that’s a good thing. You, as her parents, should support her. Besides, what era are we in now? Men and women are equal. It’s not like girls have to act reserved and wait for men to pursue them.”

“Look at Mengmeng, acting all prim and proper, she’s already thirty and still not married. You don’t want Shanshan to end up like her, do you?”

He Wenhui and Jiang Wu exchanged glances—they certainly did not want Shanshan to be left unmarried until thirty as well.

But, that Lu Han…

“Big brother, I heard that Lu Han is just a poor doctor, and his family background isn’t great, right?” He Wenhui was still somewhat apprehensive.

“Then what about your big brother? I’ve dedicated my whole life to the medical field, and I’ve been poor my whole life. At least he still has his mother; what about us siblings? Jiang Wu was only a few years old when our parents were no longer with us, and you still married him, didn’t you?”

He Wenhui: “…”

But that’s a different matter.

However, it seemed to make sense.

“Enough now. Whether Lu Han is capable or wealthy isn’t what you should be worried about at the moment. The first thing to consider is whether Shanshan can win Lu Han’s heart. If he doesn’t even care about Shanshan, what’s the use of fretting about his external conditions?”

He Wenhui pouted, “Hmph, our Shanshan is so outstanding and he doesn’t see it, choosing Tang Su instead. Lu Han really is blind.”

In the eyes of parents, their own daughter is always the most perfect, surely more outstanding than anyone else’s.

“Alright, sit down and have dinner. After we finish, we’ll settle the bill and everyone will go about their business.”

He also needed to think carefully about how to win back Zhao Xinlan.

Zhao Xinlan said she had drafted a divorce agreement a year ago?

So, their problems had existed a year ago?

They didn’t just start today.

Jiang Tao had always felt that there was no issue between them, but it was clear that Xinlan didn’t share this view.

Subconsciously, Jiang Tao still felt that simple-minded Xinlan must have been influenced by Su Ruoan and Tang Shengyi.

Pressing down on them over the years was the right thing to do.

If they had risen to higher positions too soon, they wouldn’t be grateful to him anyway.
