Shen Yao's knuckles, which were gripping the medical record folder tightly, gradually turned white from the force.

"We will be entering the operating room at 8 a.m. sharp tomorrow morning. Everyone should prepare the necessary work in advance today."

"Yes, Dr. Shen."

The surgical team was temporarily assembled, with an average age of under 35, so no one had much objection to 26-year-old Shen Yao being the chief surgeon, and they were quite accepting of the idea.

After everyone had left, Shen Yao tidied up the documents on the table and prepared to leave.

But then I heard the sound of leather shoes on the floor, getting closer and closer.

"You still say you and Huangfu Hao are innocent? Then why were you able to perform that surgery? This kind of confidential matter is only known to a few families in Shenzhen, but Huangfu Hao told you!"

Although he heard Shen Yao say that she and Huangfu Hao were innocent, Gu Tianyou still didn't believe it.

He was particularly surprised when he arrived at the hospital and heard the president of Shenzhen Medical University say that Shen Yao was the surgeon who performed the operation on the 70-year-old leader.

Shen Yao is actually a doctor, and she can even perform surgery?

As far as he could remember, Shen Yao had studied in the United States for a few years.

During those few years, Gu Tianyou felt much more at peace.

Grandpa Gu had mentioned Shen Yao's situation in the United States, but Gu Tianyou never took it to heart.

However, when the principal said, "The eldest son of the Huangfu family personally recommended Shen Yao, saying that she is a top student at Harvard Medical School and has performed several highly technical heart transplant surgeries abroad, which is why the higher-ups agreed to let her perform the surgery," Gu Tianyou's attention immediately wandered.

His mind was filled with the image of Huangfuhao carrying Shen Yao away that day.

He could not tolerate Shen Yao's betrayal, absolutely not!

Hearing the sarcastic tone in Gu Tianyou's voice, Shen Yao could no longer bear it. She slammed the documents heavily on the desk, her clear eyes looking directly into the man's eyes without fear.

"The opportunity I was given to perform that surgery was indeed given to me by Huangfu Hao, but it was also due to my own abilities!"

In this matter, Shen Yao felt that she had done nothing wrong and there was nothing to criticize.

To secure the position of chief surgeon, she made extensive preparations, including proof of her participation in major surgeries in the United States, authoritative publications, and in-depth involvement in medical research projects.

All of this was achieved through her hard work and studying late into the night while living in a foreign land.

At this moment, facing Gu Tianyou's sarcasm and doubt, Shen Yao felt no guilt whatsoever.

"President Gu, you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. The position you hold now, everything you have, is not due to your hard work, but to your status! What right do you have to question my efforts? You are not worthy!"

As the sole heir of the Gu family, Gu Tianyou was showered with love and expectations, so he was naturally proud and used to looking down on everyone from a high position.

Even if it was Old Master Gu who wanted to discipline him, he would do so behind closed doors so that no one else could see.

He was used to everyone's awe, admiration, and flattery.

Furthermore, after taking over the Gu family business, he expanded its business empire considerably, giving him even more reason to be proud.

But now, his former admirer and pursuer, Shen Yao, says he is not worthy of her.

Gu Tianyou's pride was severely wounded. He grabbed Shen Yao's shoulders and his voice was low and angry as he said, "I'm not worthy!? Let me tell you, Shen Yao, without me, you are nothing!"
