The middle-aged woman left Bikang with the little girl whose fingers had already healed while Shen Qiang was in the operating room performing surgery on a patient with colon cancer.

"Perfect!" exclaimed Chen Liangpeng, the new deputy director of the oncology department, his eyes filled with amazement. "Although I had heard a lot about your surgeries, how fast and skillful they were, it's only after witnessing it firsthand that I truly understand the impact—your surgery is far more astonishing than any praise I've heard."

Shen Qiang responded with a slight smile.

Almost at the same time.

In the director of oncology's office.

The anxious Director Wang paced back and forth, hands behind his back, saying worriedly, "This Chen Liangpeng is a cancer specialist, lured here by Dean Su with a high salary."

"He's more skilled than I am, and now he's teamed up with Shen Qiang. Once he gets the hang of everything in the oncology department, I'm afraid I'll have reached the end of my tenure as director."

Doctor Liu, sitting on the sofa, sighed helplessly, "It's true. Shen Qiang's surgeries are just too incredible. These past few days, the head of general surgery has called several times, implying that he wants to poach Shen Qiang for general surgery."

"That's good, that's a good thing," said Director Wang urgently. "Chen Liangpeng may be better than me, but without Shen Qiang's help, he won't be in charge of oncology."

Doctor Liu spread his hands in resignation, "I know the best solution is to get rid of Shen Qiang, this Plague God, but it's not that simple. He's an intern, and according to the internship contract we signed, he'll stay in oncology until the end of the contract."

Director Wang was frantic, "Just one Shen Qiang has already given me so much trouble. I can't beat him in a fight, and I can't outdo him in an argument. When I try to make things difficult for him, his surgeries outshine everyone else's."

"Now I don't even dare accept red envelopes from patients. I have to watch as those big-bottomed female patient relatives pass by without daring to touch them, afraid that Shen Qiang will catch me in the act. How can I expect to afford any special services with just my meager salary if this continues?"

Doctor Liu bittered with a laugh, "I'm in the same boat. Yesterday, a patient's family member offered me a red envelope, but I didn't dare to take it. That Shen Qiang is really eager to take us down."

Director Wang, feeling helpless, said, "I thought Zhang Yujian would be a good ally. He comes from an influential family, has high credentials, and sufficient experience. I thought suppressing Shen Qiang would be a piece of cake. But, turns out, he's nothing but show."

"Not only did he fail to knock Shen Qiang down, but he also got knocked down himself. Now he's moping around all day, leading a few interns like a defeated rooster. No matter how much I try to encourage him, he doesn't dare to provoke Shen Qiang anymore."

Doctor Liu sighed, "Director, if this goes on, we might as well resign. I heard from someone in HR yesterday that the dean's beautiful assistant is preparing an official contract for Shen Qiang."

"Once that contract is signed, with him around, how are we supposed to keep working?"

Director Wang clenched his teeth, "Do you think I'm not in pain? Now whenever I think of red envelopes, my heart aches, and every time I see those big-bottomed female relatives of the patients, I'm reminded of Shen Qiang."

"We must find a way to get rid of him, or we can forget about ever getting any red envelopes again."

Doctor Liu nodded.

Right at that moment, the beautiful young woman, who Director Wang had once coerced, happened to pass by the office door, carrying her child.

Watching the woman's enchanting figure, Doctor Liu's eyes lit up immediately and said, "What a tempting beauty. Director Wang, her husband is going to be discharged in a few days."

"You didn't get her red envelope; instead, you got beaten up by Shen Qiang. Now, we've even lost respect from the nurses. If we let her go just like that, I think it'd be a huge loss for you."

Hearing this, Director Wang said with a chilling gaze, "Don't you worry, do you not know who I am? Think I'll be at a loss? Not a chance."

Doctor Liu laughed, "But recently, Director Su hasn't been very friendly towards us. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid he'll put on an act of being all businesslike."

Director Wang scoffed, "Director Su? Look at his female assistant, long legs, big round butt, pretty face. She's called an intern assistant, but she has more authority than the vice director. He can mess around with his assistant, and we can't mess with a patient's family member?"

Doctor Liu was amused.

"But this isn't an easy matter to handle, ah. This married woman's husband is about to be discharged, and they no longer need surgery or treatment. The best opportunity to get her has already passed."

Director Wang smiled.

"It's easy to handle. I have a friend in the health supplement business, and he seems to be researching an aphrodisiac that's quite effective."

The moment Doctor Liu heard this, his eyes lit up, "Really?"

Director Wang laughed, "Whether it's true or not, you'll find out soon enough."

Outside the operating room.

Chen Liangpeng, who had just come out of the operating room, said to Shen Qiang with a smile, "Although you're an intern, I must admit that your surgical skills are comparable to an expert's."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave."

Chen Liangpeng was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Shen Qiang, I've heard that the hospital is looking to renew your contract. What are your thoughts on that?"

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "I don't have any opinions right now. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that my internship is about to end, I wouldn't even want to be here."

After a moment of silence, Chen Liangpeng said, "If you have any demands, you can talk to me about them. I can negotiate with Director Su on your behalf."

Shen Qiang laughed, "His offer can't meet my needs at all. The reason I still insist on coming here is not just because of the internship contract but also because I want to see Director Wang's downfall."

"Besides that, there's nothing here that I would miss."

After a moment of silence, Chen Liangpeng said, "Shen Qiang, I advise you to consider it. There are many graduates from Medical University every year, but not many can stay in Provincial City."

Shen Qiang smiled.

At that moment, the beautiful married woman who had given Shen Qiang a chance at romance happened to walk by with her child. She smiled at Shen Qiang and said, "Doctor Shen, my husband is recovering well in all aspects, and he'll be discharged next week."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Congratulations."

The beautiful married woman smiled and said, "Thank you." Then added, "By the way, my sister is graduating at the end of the month. When she returns, we would like to invite you to dinner."

Shen Qiang's eyes curved into a smile; of course, he remembered that the married woman had once mentioned wanting to introduce her sister, the campus belle, as a girlfriend for him. However, Shen Qiang already had Lv Shuyao and Xin Xiaoting in his life.

So Shen Qiang replied with a noncommittal smile, "Sure, if I'm free at the time, I will definitely come."
