The Great Medical Saint (Matthew)

Chapter 793

The classmates exchanged puzzled glances.

A moment ago, they thought Jovian was just mocking Matthew to humiliate him,

so they joined in the ridicule and put pressure on him. But now, they were surprised to hear Jovian telling them to apologize to Matthew. They were at a loss and didn't understand what was happening.

Jovian saw them standing blankly and snapped, "What are you looking at? Apologize! Is that how you talk to a classmate?"

One of them realized Jovian was being serious. He got up awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, Matthew. I shouldn't have said what I did. Please don't take it to heart."

Another chimed in, "Matthew, I'm sorry that I slipped up. Don't take it personally."

Only after several classmates had apologized did Jovian turn to Matthew. "They've all apologized, so let's just let this slide for my sake. Let's sit and have a few drinks."

But Matthew had even less interest in staying. "Sorry, but I have other plans."

Jovian panicked, so he decided to come clean with his intentions. "To be honest, there's something I'd like your help with."
