The Weize Company's tax evasion incident came suddenly, but the conclusion was quick and decisive. It could be said that just as the ripples began to spread, they abruptly ended.

On Friday, Weize Company made a one-time payment of the evaded taxes, along with a huge fine, totaling 410 million, marking the end of the matter.

However, by Saturday, another incident erupted at Weize Company, attracting the attention of many interested individuals.

Zheng Guojie, the vice president of Weize Company, who had followed An Weize faithfully for twenty years, was reported by the company for false accounting and embezzlement of huge company assets, leading to a criminal investigation by law enforcement.

This matter gave keen observers a faint smell of gunpowder...

By Sunday, in the luxurious single patient room at the Affiliated Hospital, Lin Jie had completed a vocal cord examination for Shao Deyao!

He put away the small flashlight and carefully instructed, "Mr. Shao, your vocal cord wound hasn't fully healed yet. The first time you make a sound, you will feel some pain. This is quite normal, so there's no need to worry!"

Lin Jie further reminded, "Because your vocal cords are still somewhat swollen, the sound you produce now will be quite different from when you have fully recovered."

"The current test sound should only be used as a reference, and to prove your vocal cord function… everything is normal."

Looking at the somewhat tense expression on Shao Deyao, Lin Jie softly said, "The first time you make a sound, do it gently, and slowly increase your breath."

"Let's start slowly, give it a try..."

"Now... open your mouth..."

"Ah..."

When Lin Jie treated him like a three-year-old child, Shao Deyao found it quite amusing.

However, since it concerned his voice, he dared not take it lightly and, following Lin Jie's example, opened his mouth.

"Ah..."

Hiss, this sound...

It was so unfamiliar, as if it came from afar, yet was close by...

Shao Deyao found it so surreal that if not for the sharp, tearing pain in his throat reminding him, he would have thought he was dreaming.

Seeing Lin Jie close his mouth, he followed suit and closed his mouth too!

Lin Jie made a gentle gesture, and Yan Beichen, standing by his side, waved the phone in his hand, then clicked the playback button on the recording file!

"Ah..."

The sound felt as if after three days of fasting, it was so weak, so timid.

But the tone quality...

There was a hint of clarity in the huskiness and depth, along with some brightness...

It was as if someone was choking him, muffling his voice.

But as soon as those restraints were lifted, that clarity and brightness would burst forth like the first rays of the rising sun, breaking through the clouds and unable to be concealed.

"This... this..."

Shao Deyao held his throbbing throat with his hand, excitedly looking at Lin Jie.

Lin Jie nodded and said, "That's your voice, and it's not bad at all!"

"For a month, don't speak loudly or talk excessively; try to speak as little as possible, but... also you cannot remain completely silent!"

"Regarding food, within this month, try to choose soft foods, liquid food is best, avoid spicy or irritating foods, and definitely avoid bony meat or fish with spines..."

After giving these medical instructions, Lin Jie said, "You can go home today to recuperate. If you feel highly uncomfortable with your voice, I suggest consulting a psychologist."

"If you're greatly dissatisfied with the voice, you can come to see me again in three months."

Shao Deyao nodded, took a sip of warm water to soothe his throat, and softly said, "Expert Lin... Expert Lin..."

"Strange, it feels like someone else is speaking next to my ear..."

Lin Jie explained, "This is because your voice changed too much, and your sensory perception and brain aren't accustomed to it yet. Familiarize yourself for a few days, and this strangeness will gradually fade and eventually disappear!"

"If you really can't adapt, go consult a psychologist; in that regard, I can't help you."

Shao Deyao's face lit up with a smile and said, "I actually quite like this voice!"

"Thank you, Expert Lin!"

He took a tablet from the bedside, called up a document, handed it to Lin Jie, and smiled, "As a token of my gratitude, I'm giving you a gift!"

"What gift?"

Lin Jie took the tablet and saw that it was a scanned medical record!

After a quick glance, he couldn't suppress his joy and asked, "You really found the patient I was looking for?"

"I didn't fail my mission!" Shao Deyao nodded proudly!

Attached to the medical record were several photos of the patient.

It was a seven-year-old girl with a lovely appearance, also suffering from cerebral artery malformation. However, instead of headaches, her condition caused numbness in the left leg and lack of coordination.

Lin Jie carefully looked over the medical record and the little girl's information, casually asking, "When did you find this patient?"

"Two days ago!"

Lin Jie responded softly, "Oh."

Suddenly, he realized a problem and asked, "Mr. Shao, if today's audition results aren't ideal, are you planning not to give me this patient?"

Shao Deyao gave a sly smile and responded, "What do you think?"

Lin Jie smirked inwardly, knowing that this guy was getting back at him and only mentioned midway that another vocal cord refining surgery could be done.

"No matter what, I still have to thank you."

"You've brought a compelling experimental patient to my research project, thank you again!"

These past few days, although he's been worried about the An Family's affairs, he's also been keeping an eye out for potential patients.

The nationwide sales representatives from Weize Company, in whom he placed great hopes, perhaps due to being affected by the company's headquarters being under tax investigation, seemed to lack enthusiasm and effort, with no concrete news coming through.

Lin Jie didn't expect that Shao Deyao would give him such a big surprise today!

He felt the sentiment of finding new vistas after reaching a dead end.

Lin Jie handed the tablet to Yan Beichen and instructed, "Note down the patient's address and contact information. You and Tian Xiangyu go personally. Bring this little patient and her parents to the Affiliated Hospital."

Yan Beichen took the tablet, snapped to attention, saluted, and said loudly, "Teacher, rest assured, Senior Brother Tian and I will complete the task!"

Lin Jie glanced at the playful Yan Beichen and said to Shao Deyao, "I owe you one."

"Expert Lin, you're too kind."

Shao Deyao said earnestly, "I sincerely hope that your research project will succeed and benefit more patients."

"This little girl looks quite adorable too."

"Being able to contribute to her physical recovery gives such a great sense of doing good deeds, a vast sense of psychological satisfaction."

"However..."

He changed his tone and laughed, "Expert Lin, your favor is extremely valuable. It might save my life as a talisman one day."

"So, I shamelessly accept it."

After saying such a long speech, Shao Deyao's facial muscles twitched in pain. He quickly took small sips of warm water to calm himself.

Lin Jie was not sympathetic at all and said to the nurse in the ward, "Quickly process his discharge!"

As he stepped out of the ward, someone approached him and shoved a journal into his hands.

"The mentor asked me to bring this journal to you."

Before Lin Jie could speak, the person had already turned and left.

Yu Jingsheng!

It was Yu Jingsheng who delivered the journal!

Speaking of which, this was the first time Lin Jie saw him again since he left arrogantly after the first class.

Compared to that time, Lin Jie noticed that he had noticeably lost weight and even had a few strands of gray hair.

Ma Hongmin leaned over to Lin Jie and whispered, "Teacher, even though he never said it, we all know that he regrets it, he really regrets it."

"Not just him, but those students who left back then also regret it."

Lin Jie said blandly, "Nonetheless, his diligence is something you should all learn from."

"You all keep whining about getting up at three and going to bed at five, claiming you can't stand it. Compared to Yu Jingsheng, in just a few months, he lost at least twenty pounds, right?"

"Take a look at yourselves, like you..."

Lin Jie scrutinized Ma Hongmin and shook his head in disappointment, "I really haven't noticed any change in you!"

"Eleven pounds, a whole eleven pounds!"

Ma Hongmin, upset and extremely aggrieved, said, "Teacher, I've lost a whole eleven pounds. I'm the kind that loses weight but not facial fat. Even though my face is big, I don't have much weight on my body."

"And this happened even though my parents keep feeding me nutritious food every day."

"Our diligence is not inferior to Yu Jingsheng's. The reason he lost so much weight is mainly due to excessive psychological pressure and insomnia at night."

Ma Hongmin then said with a hint of pride, "Teacher, you might not know this."

"Among Teacher Chen's students, Yu Jingsheng always came first in terms of grades. But in the recent professional tests organized by the college, several of us have surpassed him in overall scores."

"Hehe, in the last test, my score also surpassed his by a few points!"

Lin Jie sneered and said dismissively, "I expect you all to aim at least to be renowned doctors like Professor Chen Shi or Director Fang Lianggong in the country."

"You're feeling pleased after surpassing just one classmate in academic grades? Truly lacking ambition."

"Understood, Teacher, I will continue to work hard!"

Ma Hongmin lowered her head, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

Lin Jie looked at the journal in his hands, which was the latest issue of the authoritative medical core journal in the country, "Chinese Medicine"!

In the key recommendation section on the front page, he saw Chen Shi and the title of his paper.

On the cover page, he also saw the editor-in-chief's introduction to Chen Shi's paper, highly appraising it as one of the most groundbreaking medical research achievements of the year.
