She sat opposite Yang Ming and began to ask about his situation: "Leader Yang, how old are you this year? Who are the people in your family?"

Yang Ming answered with a humble and polite attitude. Mother Ding nodded frequently, and she felt more and more that this was a good son-in-law that was hard to find even with a lantern.

Ding's mother asked again: "Boss Yang, you are so busy at work, how come you still have time to visit us?"

Yang Ming smiled and said, "Actually, I came here today because I have something to discuss with Secretary Ding. But since I'm here, I'll visit you and Auntie."

Mother Ding was delighted, thinking this was a good sign. She thought to herself: This young man is not only handsome, but also has a stable job and a high income. If our daughter marries him, she will be blessed.

Thinking of this, Ding's mother couldn't help but feel a little closer to Yang Ming. She warmly invited Yang Ming to stay for dinner, and Yang Ming couldn't refuse the invitation, so he agreed.

Mother Ding was even more delighted when she saw Yang Ming agreed to stay for dinner. She quickly told her daughter to prepare dinner while she chatted with Yang Ming.

Yang Ming didn't know that Ding's mother had already regarded him as her son-in-law. He just felt that the Ding family was warm and hospitable, which made him feel very close. While chatting with Ding's mother, he helped to clean the table and put the dishes on the table.

Ding Rushan was slightly startled, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, as if he was recalling the past that he didn't want to mention. Seeing this, Ding Qiunan gently held his father's hand and encouraged him: "Dad, Brother Yang is a good man, he will help us."

Encouraged by his daughter, Ding Rushan finally spoke up: "In fact, I did make a mistake when I was working at the Affiliated Hospital of the Steel Plant. At that time, there was a patient whose family was very poor. I felt sorry for him, so I accepted some gifts from the patient's family. Unexpectedly, this matter was known to one of my colleagues, and he reported me."

Yang Ming listened quietly without interrupting Ding Rushan. He understood that for a man who once had a noble career pursuit, this experience was undoubtedly a shame.

"What happened next?" Yang Ming asked.

"Later, the vice president of the hospital talked to me and said that my behavior violated hospital regulations and that I would be fired on behalf of the hospital. I begged him to give me a chance, but he did not agree. In the end, my name was recorded in the personnel file and became a stain." Ding Rushan's voice trembled a little, and it was obvious that this memory made him very painful.

Yang Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Master Ding, I understand your situation. Although your behavior does have moral flaws, this situation is not uncommon in the medical community. I think the key to the problem lies in the record in your personnel file, which has become an obstacle to your job search."

When Ding Qiunan heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She asked anxiously, "Brother Yang, can you help us think of a solution? My dad really wants to find a new job."

Yang Ming nodded and said, "I understand your dilemma. It's not easy to erase the records in the personnel files, but it's not impossible. I can help you contact some friends and see if we can find a solution."

When Ding Rushan heard this, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes. He knew Yang Ming very well and knew that he would not easily promise, but once he promised, he would definitely do his best.

"Brother Yang, thank you. I know this is a difficult thing to do, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up." Ding Qiunan said gratefully.

Yang Ming smiled and nodded, saying: "Don't worry, I will do my best. However, you should also be mentally prepared, this process may be very long."

Ding Rushan sighed and said, "I know. But as long as there is hope, I am willing to wait."

Just as he was lost in thought, Yang Ming's figure appeared in his sight.

This person, who usually didn't have much interaction with him, took the initiative to step forward and asked softly, "Master Ding, I heard that you are in some trouble?"

Ding Rushan looked up, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that someone would be willing to lend a hand at this critical moment. Seeing him hesitate, Yang Ming continued, "I have a suggestion that may help you solve this problem."

"Oh? What suggestion?" Ding Rushan asked curiously.

"First, through the relationship with the Iron and Steel Plant. After all, we belong to the same Ministry of Metallurgy, and they may be able to say a few words to you." Yang Ming paused, and added, "Second, I can personally take you to see the vice president, but you also know that I don't have much friendship with him, and his personality..."

Ding Rushan felt mixed emotions after hearing this. He was grateful for Yang Ming's kindness, but he also knew the risks involved. He was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "I understand, let me think about it again."

After Yang Ming left, Ding Rushan's thoughts drifted far away. He thought of his daughter Ding Qiunan, the girl who had a close connection with Yang Ming.

He couldn't help but wonder: Is Yang Ming's willingness to help related to her?

Ding Qiunan was also at home at the moment, and her mood was equally complicated.

She was grateful that Yang Ming was willing to stand up for her father, but she also knew the cost.

She knew that Yang Ming was already married, and she herself had never thought about getting married. She didn't know how to face all this, and she didn't know how to explain her relationship with Yang Ming to her father.

At dinner time, the family sat around the dining table.

Although Ding's mother's cooking skills were average, today's meal was exceptionally sumptuous. Ding Qiunan looked at the table full of dishes, but he had no appetite.

She kept glancing at Yang Ming from time to time, trying to read something from his expression. However, Yang Ming remained calm, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

After dinner, Ding Qiunan suddenly stood up and said to Yang Ming, "Uncle Yang, I would like to invite you to sit in my bedroom." As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the whole living room suddenly became tense.

Both Ding's father and mother looked at her in surprise, not understanding why she would behave like this.

Yang Ming was also stunned for a moment, but soon regained his composure. He nodded and followed Ding Qiunan into the bedroom. After the door was closed, the atmosphere in the living room became more solemn. Father Ding and Mother Ding looked at each other, their hearts filled with doubts and uneasiness.

In the bedroom, the conversation between Ding Qiunan and Yang Ming was intermittent. Father and Mother Ding pricked up their ears, trying to hear what they were saying. But the soundproofing was too good, so they could only hear some vague sounds. As time went by, they became more and more anxious.

“Qiu Nan, what are you doing…” Ding Rushan hesitated to speak. He really didn’t know how to start.

Ding Qiunan turned around and saw his father standing at the door. A flash of panic flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure: "Dad, this is Dr. Yang. He has something to talk to me about."

Yang Ming smiled and nodded to Ding Rushan, but there was a subtle hint of meaning in his eyes.
