Veils of Beiping Novel Chapter 28

"Sir, the label of not supporting the Anti-Japanese War is too big for me to accept. As a person, I am willing to be drafted at any time. But as the person in charge of Tzu Chi, I must first consider the interests of Tzu Chi. There are many patients who rely on Tzu Chi. Sir."

"You make excuses, just wait for me..."

"I can wait." Jane Cheng made an invitation gesture and said loudly: "Xiaomei, see you off."

The door opened and Xiaomei came in.

The two red-faced officers walked out of Jane Cheng's office, still panting. Mei Yanchun sent them out, came back with a frown, and said to Jane Cheng who was writing something: "Dean Cheng, will they... give you trouble?"

"Not supporting the Anti-Japanese War is a very serious crime, isn't it?" Jane pinched her Parker 51 gold pen and looked at her handwriting carefully. She was used to writing in English, but suddenly switched to Chinese. She always felt that her writing was not correct enough.

"Not yet. Don't worry. It's not our turn to bear this crime first." Anita Mui comforted her boss. Her tone of voice dropped unconsciously. She also knew that Dean Cheng's situation in the hospital was already not good. If there was another stalemate with the military, things would only get worse. Let’s not say whether Tzu Chi can continue to operate. I’m afraid those on the board of directors will have reasons to expel her from office. This is the fourth theater under the jurisdiction of the Tao family...

"Tzu Chi is definitely not the first and will never be the last private hospital to refuse the military's request. It's not that we don't support the war of resistance..." Jane put down her pen, "A war? Whether or not we fight this war, how we fight it, it doesn't matter. It’s still unknown. On the day when the war actually breaks out, many people from Tzu Chi will volunteer to be army doctors, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop them.”

Mei Yanchun didn't understand Jane's meaning for a moment. Jane handed Mei Yanchun a stack of beige printed paper she had written on. Mei Yanchun took it and saw it was an invitation.

"Send it to me. This Sunday night, I will host a banquet for these people." Jane turned the cap of her pen.

Mei Yanchun agreed to go out.

She looked at the names carefully. Except for a few directors of the hospital, who were rich men who had long funded Benin Hospital, the rest were either political figures or big businessmen. There was only one person who was surprising - Peter Pang. When Mei Yanchun saw these three words, she was stunned for a long time.

Dean Cheng, why did you invite Peter Pang? The two people who just came are Peter Pang's direct subordinates.

She pondered for a moment, then knocked on the door and went in.

Jane Cheng was on the phone. When he saw her, he held the phone.

"Dean Cheng, you don't plan to invite Mr. Du Wenda, do you?" Mei Yanchun asked.

Du Wenda, one of the three tycoons in Shanghai, praised the achievements of Benin Hospital in public two days ago. With Du Wenda's status, it was impossible for him to say such things for no reason, but Jane was cautious and reserved and expressed her gratitude to the reporters who also came to interview after hearing the news. She didn't say anything hastily.

Jane said: "I have no such plan for the time being."

"Can you add one more person to your banquet list? I want to get you an invitation letter for my father. I just don't know..." Mei Yanchun said with a smile. She's a little reserved.

"Mr. Mei Mengxian?" Jane asked.

Mei Yanchun pondered for a moment and nodded.

"I'll write it later." Jane said solemnly.

"Then I'll go out first." Mei Yanchun looked very happy, and she closed the door.

Jane paused for a while and then said into the phone: "It's my secretary... yes, the two little secretaries who came to teach you a lesson." She said, turning the phone to one side, "I'll give you the invitation." It will be delivered later. Peter, do you really want to come?"
