The bustling morning rush hour traffic moved as slowly as snails.
It took Shen Qiang and Su Xiaonuan over an hour to cover the journey of less than twenty kilometers to Bikang.
They parked the car in the underground parking lot.
Just as Shen Qiang had come up from the parking lot and had not yet reached the entrance of the inpatient department,
he was stopped by Professor Zhang, whom he had met yesterday.
With a bright look in his eyes, Professor Zhang shook hands with Shen Qiang and introduced the middle-aged man beside him, saying, "Doctor Shen, this is Mr. Li from the Human Resources Department of the Provincial People's Hospital. He is here to find out if you are considering working at the Provincial People's Hospital?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's eyes lit up.
The Provincial People's Hospital.
It was a top-tier, triple-A hospital.
At that moment, Su Xiaonuan became anxious, "Professor Zhang, don't go too far. Shen Qiang's contract has not yet expired; he is still a doctor at Bikang. Please leave now, or I will call the security."
Upon hearing this, Professor Zhang laughed.
The middle-aged man shook hands with Shen Qiang, saying, "Doctor Shen, the Provincial People's Hospital is the best hospital in Provincial City. Here is my business card. Please seriously consider it, and if you are interested in coming to the Provincial People's Hospital, give me a call."
With that, the middle-aged man handed Shen Qiang a business card.
"Security! Security!" Su Xiaonuan, in a panic, shouted for security.
Professor Zhang and the middle-aged man immediately said helplessly, "Alright, we are leaving now."
The middle-aged man specifically added, "Remember to call me. You must understand, joining the Provincial People's Hospital is the dream of countless doctors. Don't miss the opportunity."
Watching Professor Zhang and the man leave,
Su Xiaonuan, furious, her face flush with anger, exclaimed, "Shameless! Is this how you recruit people?"
The middle-aged man nonchalantly shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "If you at Bikang are capable, you could go and recruit from the Provincial People's Hospital too."
Su Xiaonuan clenched her fists in anger.
Shen Qiang laughed and said, "Don't get too worked up. Where I really go depends on where I want to go, not where wants me."
Su Xiaonuan, with her chest heaving with anger, gritted her teeth and said, "Shen Qiang, just wait. I will help you secure a contract that you are satisfied with."
Shen Qiang laughed, said nothing more, and turned to head to Tumor Surgery.
Upstairs in the Tumor Surgery department, in the director's office.
Director Wang, standing by the window and watching the confident Shen Qiang, his eyes were full of hatred, but in a flash, he became anxious.
"Doctor Liu has disappeared, and those who previously troubled Shen Qiang have vanished as well. What exactly happened between them? Could they have been killed by Shen Qiang?"
"Impossible! Shen Qiang doesn't have that kind of capability."
"But if they weren't killed by Shen Qiang, how could they disappear without a trace?"
"Dammit, why!"
Director Wang's eyes brimmed with cold fury.
"Why should Shen Qiang, not only get away with messing with Nurse Lü, but also get involved with that beautiful intern and now even hook up with the long-legged, pert-assed female assistant of the Dean."
"What's more infuriating is that after such disgraceful defiance, now no one in the entire Tumor Surgery department fears me anymore!"
"Surgeons crowd around Wu Guoxi and Shen Qiang while physicians stand with Chen Liangpeng, and even those nurses—just because I glanced twice at their bosoms, they dare give me the cold shoulder."
"Shen Qiang, wait for me! Our issue isn't over yet. You think you're so great at surgery? Well, I'll ruin your hands! And that tall, leggy assistant who flirts around and likes to be with you—I swear, if I don't fuck her right in front of you, that'll be the day!"
At that moment, Shen Qiang had just put on his white coat upon returning to the doctors' lounge.
He turned his head and saw a smiling Wu Guoxi, who was accompanied by a middle-aged woman holding a child.
Upon seeing Shen Qiang, the woman immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Doctor Shen, thank you! My baby is definitely all normal now; he can eat anything, be it milk or formula."
Shen Qiang turned his head and noticed the thin, dark little fellow in her arms.
The child, full of energy, was holding onto a milk bottle and eating.
The wrinkles on his cheeks had clearly diminished.
Not only that, seeing Shen Qiang looking at him, the child's eyes flickered, clutching the milk bottle tightly as if he feared Shen Qiang would take it.
Shen Qiang smiled, "You're welcome."
The woman hastened to say, "We need to thank you, we really do. We've been all over the country and seen countless specialists to no avail. You saved my son, you gave our family hope."
Shen Qiang smiled, "It's what I should do."
Wu Guoxi smiled, "Now that thanks are given, you must go. Doctor Shen still has work to do."
The woman nodded immediately, then stuffed a red envelope into Shen Qiang's hands.
Shen Qiang couldn't possibly accept the red envelope.
But as Shen Qiang was refusing, Wu Guoxi took the red envelope for him.
After the overjoyed woman had left,
Wu Guoxi smiled and said, "You naïve kid, sometimes patients' families give red envelopes just to feel relieved. You outright rejecting them can make them uneasy. If you really don't want it, just deposit the money in her family's patient account later."
"Shoving and pushing in the office is not wise."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Director Wu, you're trying to trap me, accepting red envelopes can become addictive."
'
Wu Guoxi laughed, "This morning as soon as I arrived, I saw Professor Zhang waiting for you downstairs. What's the occasion, is Provincial People's Hospital interested in you?"
Showing the business card in his hand, Shen Qiang tossed it into the trash can and said, "It's from an employee of the Resources Department; he said if I'm interested, I could give him a call."
"But I think the hope isn't broad. If they really valued this matter, they wouldn't have approached it so carelessly."
Wu Guoxi fell silent for a moment before saying, "Provincial People's Hospital is a good hospital, but it's complicated, the workload is heavy, and the competitive pressure even greater."
Shen Qiang laughed, "I'm not afraid of competition, but I dread the idea of being nagged by a bunch of experts and professors all day, telling me what I can't do— that would be sickening."
Wu Guoxi pondered for a moment then said, "Honestly, I feel a job might not be essential for you right now, perhaps education is more important."
Shen Qiang frowned, "Are you suggesting I pursue a master's degree?"
Wu Guoxi nodded, "Your surgical skills and talent are unmatched, but your academic qualifications are somewhat low. In this age where postgraduates are everywhere, that will be your Achilles' heel."
"For instance, if a patient wants to know who their doctor is, and they see your curriculum vitae, 'Oh, an undergraduate, Bachelor of Medicine,' whereas another is a Master of Medicine, unless they know you well, they will definitely choose the one with a master's degree."
"So if possible, try to equip yourself. Many times, a certificate might not prove much, but it is a stepping stone. Without it, you can't even enter the door, no matter how skilled you are, there's no place to demonstrate it."
