A hint of regret appeared on Meng Heng’s face. “It was also my negligence. In order to optimize the surgical effect, I used a material that I usually wouldn’t use. These two reagents caused a huge side effect, and my wife’s face was disfigured.”
Feng Jing and Yin Tao listened attentively to Meng Heng’s description and couldn’t help but sympathize with his experience.
“So, young man, your girlfriend is already very beautiful. I suggest that you stop doing plastic surgery.” Meng Heng advised Feng Jing earnestly, “The initial purpose of plastic surgery is to help some people with facial defects. Don’t pursue extreme perfection. In my opinion, that is the beginning of bad luck.”
“Thank you, Doctor Meng.” Feng Jing nodded as if he was very pleased. He was now much more polite to Meng Heng. “I’m sorry to hear what happened to your wife…”
Yin Tao also said to Meng Heng, “Don’t blame her for being too impulsive. It’s also a woman’s nature to love beauty.”
“How could I bear to blame her…” Meng Heng seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be answering Yin Tao.
“Now what other projects do you want to know about?” Meng Heng gradually calmed down, and a professional smile appeared on his face.
“There is nothing more we need, Doctor Meng.” Feng Jing stood up and nodded slightly at Meng Heng. “I will cherish my girlfriend. Thank you so much for today.”
Meng Heng didn’t have any regrets when he heard that Feng Jing didn’t want the plastic surgery anymore. Instead, he was glad that his persuasion seemed to have worked.
After thanking Meng Heng, Feng Jing and Yin Tao left the aesthetics hospital hand in hand.
When the receptionist saw them leave, she asked Meng Heng regretfully, “Doctor Meng, did you not manage to get a deal? They seem very wealthy. I thought you could clinch a big project.”
“That girl is so pretty. What project could I possibly clinch?” Meng Heng looked at Yin Tao and Feng Jing as they gradually walked away. He seemed to be thinking about his past with his wife.
“Doctor Meng, this is what you don’t understand, right? Nowadays, the more beautiful people are, the more they like plastic surgery,” the receptionist said.
“That’s just a waste of time. Be careful in the future. If a customer really doesn’t need plastic surgery, try your best to dissuade them from plastic surgery.” Meng Heng sighed softly and walked back to his office.
The two receptionists who remained on the first floor looked at each other in confusion. They felt that Meng Heng was overly ethical as a doctor.
Yin Tao and Feng Jing’s car went slowly on the road. The two of them had been in deep thought since they left the aesthetics hospital. Yin Tao finally broke the silence first.
“Brother Feng, why do I feel that Meng Heng has a good character as a plastic surgeon?” Yin Tao recalled her conversation with Meng Heng and felt that he didn’t look like a murderer who could do such a perverted thing.
“Indeed. As a doctor in an aesthetics hospital, it’s really rare for Meng Heng to persuade customers to give up plastic surgery.” Feng Jing also felt that Meng Heng gave a good impression. However, his overzealous actions made Feng Jing suspicious.
“Furthermore, I just saw that there are two floors in his aesthetics hospital but only one operating theater. If he really is the murderer, there wouldn’t be a suitable venue for him to commit the crime.” Yin Tao had to admit that after spending a short time with Meng Heng, she had even let down her guard against him. A gentlemanly doctor really couldn’t be associated with a perverted murderer.
“The crime scene is unlikely to be in the hospital. I see that there are many surveillance cameras in the aesthetics hospital. If the crime is really committed here, it will be very hard to get away.” Feng Jing also felt that Meng Heng wouldn’t be so stupid as to commit a crime in the aesthetics hospital. After all, there were many staff in the hospital. It would be really hard to make it foolproof.
“I think we can only start with Meng Heng’s relationship with these victims. If they have a grudge, does that explain everything?” Yin Tao felt that even if Meng Heng was the murderer, he wouldn’t have committed a crime for no reason.
Meng Heng did not look like he would kill someone just because they were beautiful. At the very least, Yin Tao didn’t feel any threat from him.
Even if Meng Heng’s acting skills were good, it was impossible for him to conceal it so successfully. Yin Tao could feel that Meng Heng had no ill intentions towards her.
“I’ll send you back to the police station first. I want to go to the Third Central Hospital again.” Feng Jing felt that Meng Heng’s wife was very suspicious. Compared to Meng Heng, his wife, Xue Na, fits the murderer’s mental profile better.
