"Big trouble," these three words felt like a heavy stone, always pressing on Han Wenbin's heart, leaving him a bit restless.

The relationship with the An Family is so close, how could Han Wenbin not worry!

Sometimes he wishes he could grab Han Wenbin and give him a good beating!

Damn, with things like this, either you don't say anything, or you say it clearly and plainly.

Isn't he just torturing people by revealing half and hiding half?

"Dr. Lin, you seem to be in a bad mood? Is it because of Dean Tao's resignation?"

On Tuesday morning, to pass the time and stop himself from overthinking, Lin Jie came to Donghua Hospital to personally check on Zhuang Shilei's postoperative recovery.

"The recovery effect is quite good!"

Lin Jie forced a smile, applying medicine to Zhuang Shilei's left cheek as he said, "It's not because of his matter, um, it's because of..."

Thinking it over, he couldn't find the right words to express it.

Zhuang Shilei's large eyes blinked and probed at him, asking, "Are you having a quarrel with your girlfriend?"

Lin Jie gently shook his head, placing a breathable gauze on her left cheek, saying, "No quarrel, it's about something else, perhaps I'm overthinking."

"Hmm, the storm around Dean Tao's resignation won't affect you. In a few days, you'll be able to remove the stitches and go home to recuperate."

He advised, "Afterward, if there's any discomfort or need for a follow-up, don't come to Donghua Hospital, directly go to Binhai University Affiliated Hospital to find me."

"Come back once in four or five months."

"By then, I'll determine the specific timing of your cosmetic surgery based on your examination results."

Zhuang Shilei gently touched her left cheek, taking a deep breath, and said, "Dr. Lin, thank you! Thank you for making my dream come true!"

"You don't know how grateful I am now, that I met you during that trip before the Spring Festival!"

Lin Jie smiled faintly and said, "It's mainly because your right face is so beautiful, so perfect!"

"Seeing your condition, I felt like I was looking at the Venus de Milo, eager to recreate beauty. Fortunately, the result was satisfactory."

Zhuang Shilei tilted her head and teasingly asked Lin Jie, "If I were an ugly freak, wouldn't I be so lucky?"

Lin Jie vaguely said, "Beautiful people tend to have more opportunities!"

Yao Siyuan accompanied Lin Jie out of the ward.

"Lin Jie, many doctors in the hospital feel indignant for Dean Tao, they're very dissatisfied with the hospital board's decision."

Yao Siyuan said with some schadenfreude, "The hospital atmosphere is quite unstable now."

"I estimate that when the major hospitals in the Phoenix Mountain District start operating, even if Donghua Hospital doesn't lose all its people, half will leave at least!"

"What do you think, should I take this opportunity to privately reach out and recruit a few people for Anlin Hospital?"

Lin Jie remembered An Kexin's disdain for Donghua Hospital and shook his head, saying, "Forget it, An Kexin has a uniform plan for recruiting. Randomly recruiting people could cause trouble."

Yao Siyuan responded with an "oh" and laughed, "There's one more thing, the case of department head Ji Yongchang being beaten, the police have already caught the perpetrator."

"Oh, who is it?" Lin Jie showed some interest.

He sneered, "It's his brother-in-law!"

"It turns out that this guy was entangled in something unclear with one of his patients. His brother-in-law found out, couldn't stand it, and secretly got someone to beat him up."

Yao Siyuan sighed again and said, "Initially, the police had no concrete leads, but this guy's wife, not sure if she was out of her mind or what, actually told him about it."

"Ji Yongchang immediately informed the police, and that's how the case got solved!"

"Now, Ji Yongchang has filed for divorce in court. Her family is also enraged with her because of this, leaving her without both her husband and family!"

Yao Siyuan sighed emotionally, "That woman, I just don't know what she was thinking."

Lin Jie laughed, "You should take this as a warning! When finding a girlfriend, make sure she's smart! And if there's anything secretive, never tell a woman."

Yao Siyuan chuckled lowly and said, "Do you know? Chen Lan is already divorced!"

This news surprised Lin Jie, causing him to confirm, "Really? I heard they were in marriage counseling, trying to save their marriage."

"It's true, Chen Lan told me herself. Moreover, Chen Lan hinted that she wants a change of environment."

"Lin Jie, what do you think about this?"

Chen Lan's medical skills are quite decent.

Lin Jie nodded and said, "I'll find an appropriate opportunity to talk to her. If she is willing to come to Anlin Hospital, I would welcome her."

Just then, his phone rang with a call from Tian Zhiyuan.

"Expert Lin, Xu Bin's son's surgery was completed last night. This morning, after Ralph Borg finished his examination of the patient, he rushed to the airport to return home."

Although he was expecting this, hearing the news still made Lin Jie's mood slightly worse.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and said, "So, the surgery was successful?"

"The information I received is that they claim the surgery results met expectations."

"As for the specific surgical plan and postoperative damage, since the surgical team is composed of Qiao Hongzhen's people, they are very tight-lipped about this..."

"Expert Lin, I'm sorry, I haven't been able to find out."

Lin Jie hurriedly said, "Professor Tian, there's no need to apologize."

"I must thank you for paying attention to this matter, and even taking up your valuable time. Qiao Hongzhen obviously gave strict instructions and precautions on this matter."

After expressing his gratitude, he continued, "Let's leave it at that, there's no need to waste time investigating further."

After leaving Donghua Hospital, Lin Jie rushed to the Affiliated Hospital.

The three million promised by Shao Deyao had already been transferred to Lin Jie's account!

Lin Jie transferred the payment for the jewelry to Jinxiu Zhonghua immediately.

To make sure Shao Deyao felt it was worth his while, Lin Jie personally conducted the postoperative examination for him.

"Hello, Expert Lin!"

Just as he entered the ward, the tablet in Shao Deyao's hand emitted a magnetic, pleasant male voice, like that of a broadcaster!

Lin Jie nodded, acknowledging his greeting.

He used a small flashlight to re-examine the wound on Shao Deyao's throat, then said, "The wound is healing well. If it continues to do so, you'll have no problem trying to speak by this Sunday."

Shao Deyao's fingers flew across the tablet as the magnetic male voice sounded again, "Expert Lin, I heard you were looking for a patient for your research project?"

"Yes, how did you know that?"

A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "I overheard it from your student."

"Expert Lin, I'd be happy to help with that."

Surprised, Lin Jie asked, "Do you know of such a patient?"

Shao Deyao shook his head, his fingers continued tapping, "No! However, I own over two hundred cinemas nationwide, with tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of people visiting them daily."

"Posting an announcement seeking a patient among so many people is bound to be effective."

Lin Jie pondered for a moment, then said, "How much will you charge... for advertising, then?"

Shao Deyao tapped away on the tablet again, "No charge, consider it a public service announcement!"

Finally hearing some good news, the gloom in Lin Jie's heart eased a bit, and he gratefully said, "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Shao, for your generous support!"

"As a token of appreciation..."

Lin Jie thought for a moment, then said, "If after this surgery you're not quite satisfied with your voice, once your vocal cords fully recover, I can perform another voice refinement surgery for you."

"At that time, you can enjoy the treatment Xiaoxiao had during her surgery!"

"Operate and speak simultaneously..."

Shao Deyao's eyes widened directly, staring at Lin Jie for a while before writing on the tablet, "Expert Lin, are you saying that if I don't help, there'll be no voice refinement surgery?"

Lin Jie gave a somewhat awkward smile and honestly said, "Mr. Shao, at my current status, the surgeries I take on are major, complex surgeries that ordinary doctors find difficult to perform and are often matters of life and death."

"If not for Xiaoxiao's introduction and the extra surgical fees, I wouldn't have taken up a vocal cord surgery like yours."

"However, I can assure you that after this surgery, your voice will improve significantly."

Shao Deyao reluctantly nodded and wrote with both hands on the tablet, "I have to admit, you make a lot of sense..."

As he walked out of the operating room, Shen Lanruo's voice suddenly echoed in Lin Jie's mind, "Lin Jie, you will increasingly realize what a powerful network you gain as a famous doctor with superb medical skills!"

"Your current medical skills are tantamount to a life guarantee for many people."

"So, as long as it doesn't touch core interests or matters of life and death, many people will play along with you, offering help and convenience voluntarily or involuntarily."

"Likewise, the An Family, which is closely related to you, will naturally benefit from your influence."

"So, even if the An Family encounters big troubles, because of your presence, others won't go too far!"

Lin Jie knew that Shen Lanruo was aware of his persistent unease and was trying to comfort him.

This comfort did indeed work!

He felt a bit more relaxed and quietly said, "Thank you, Sister Lanruo! It seems I shouldn't be too low-key; the stronger I display my capabilities, the more comfortable the people I'm connected with will be."

Just then, Lin Jie's phone rang urgently.

It was a call from Lin Miao, and Lin Jie immediately sensed something was wrong!

"Brother, brother, something's happened, something big!"

"Many industrial and commercial staff wearing big hats, along with tax personnel, have come to the company. They've seized many items and are about to take Uncle An and Sister Kexin away..."

Lin Jie's heart tightened, knowing this was the big trouble Han Wenbin had mentioned and it had finally arrived!
