Accompanied by Cheng Xingguang and Wei Haiyuan, Dean Kan, Zhu Yiyang and others walked out of the operating room sowhat numb.
It wasn't until they stepped out of the inpatient building and felt the cool outdoor breeze that they recovered from the shock of that phone call.
"Dean Kan, we are wholeheartedly dedicated and have no personal interests. Why would Lin Jie act this way, leaving no room at all?" Zhu Yiyang asked with grievance and confusion, and also with embarrassnt and anger.
Just a phone call!
The chief on the other end of the line didn't ask for reasons or conduct an investigation, just because of Lin Jie's words, he replaced all of them.
As a Major General, Dean Kan is still the head of the hospital.
These people, in their respective hospitals and dical fields, are not unknown figures, they bear the title of "experts".
Just a phone call, which was hard for Zhu Yiyang and others to accept.
Dean Kan looked up at the inpatient building where Lin Jie was currently located, cald down, took a deep breath, and said, "The chief's decision is not wrong."
"Expert Lin is indispensable in this experintal therapy, while we are just here to do auxiliary work as small soldiers."
"Just like in a field unit, when there is work conflict between the main officer and subordinates, and the superior is asked to arbitrate, the superior will only remove the subordinate to ensure the smooth execution of the main officer's will."
"But we are not wrong either!" Zhu Yiyang still felt very aggrieved.
"We are wrong. Indeed, we are wrong."
Dean Kan said sternly, "Our error lies in the lack of precision in our dical skills, in failing to co up with good treatnt thods to prolong those patients' lives."
"Falling behind ans being beaten, it's an eternal truth."
Standing aside, Cheng Xingguang said leisurely, "Dean Kan, and everyone else, let say a few impertinent words from a bystander's perspective, please don't bla for speaking rashly."
Dean Kan responded courteously, "Dean Cheng, please speak directly. Do you also think we did wrong?"
Cheng Xingguang smiled and said, "I won't judge whether it was right or wrong."
"What I want to say is, you are wholeheartedly dedicated and have no personal interests, I know and Expert Lin knows this as well."
"However, is it appropriate to demand others to also make sacrifices under the na of dedication?"
"Must Expert Lin conform to your model of sacrifice?"
"How much do you know about Expert Lin's personal situation?"
"Moreover, this was a decision made by your chief, by your superior."
"The patients' frail condition, unsuitable for long-distance hospital transfer, did your chief not consider this?"
"Did Expert Lin not consider this himself?"
Cheng Xingguang's words caused a subtle shock in the hearts of Dean Kan, Zhu Yiyang, and others, leaving them silent.
They were well aware that their actions were coercive in nature, with intentions to force Lin Jie.
They thought that even if Lin Jie didn't compromise or relent, he would handle the matter in a conciliatory manner.
However, what they couldn't have anticipated was that their prediction was completely off, Lin Jie's response was so decisive, overturning the table without a word.
Lin Jie was acting against the norm.
If the superior truly pursues the matter, the responsibility would be substantial.
Especially those patients they were originally responsible for, their importance is paramount, if due to their self-assertion, any incidents occurred to those patients.
The consequences...
Thinking about this, soone tentatively suggested, "Dean Kan, if we go back and apologize to Expert Lin..."
Wei Haiyuan humd softly, "You might not know, Expert Lin operates with one principle: he only gives people one chance."
"Just now at the operating room, he clearly stated that he has already decided not to hold it against you."
"Yet, you repeatedly..."
At this point, he shook his head regretfully, unable to conceal the gleeful tone that his expression betrayed.
Just then, a Lieutenant Officer approached, saluted Dean Kan, and said, "Report, following orders from above, escorting all chiefs to Binhai Military District to report on the work."
Dean Kan and others understood that this was the higher-ups conducting a post-event investigation.
Watching them leave in the military vehicle, Wei Haiyuan couldn't help but laugh, "Expert Lin has always given the impression of being kind-hearted, this is the first ti I've seen him so overtly domineering."
"One sentence 'Replace everyone', now thinking about it, what a powerful presence it was. If I were in his position, I wouldn't have dared handle it this way."
"Kind-hearted? Benevolent?"
Cheng Xingguang just smiled and said, "Haiyuan, that's definitely your biggest misconception."
"Soone who achieves excellence in dical skills, without perseverance, without a self-assured and proud character, could never achieve such accomplishnt."
"Think about it, Expert Lin expelled quite a few students cleanly and decisively from the start."
"Also, if you ask those students, you'll know that what they fear most is Expert Lin's gloomy face. That ans they've either made a mistake or are in trouble."
"Think again about the Hu Family that offended Expert Lin, what's their situation now?"
Cheng Xingguang reminded once more, "Haiyuan, you must know, the whole hospital is abuzz with stories that the atmosphere in Expert Lin's operating room is the heaviest and most oppressive, so much that no one dares to breathe loudly?"
Wei Haiyuan chuckled and said, "Of course, I've heard about that."
"It's just that I can't personally experience it, so I don't quite understand."
Cheng Xingguang chuckled, "I suggest you take a look at the rescue video material in the ergency hall from the trampling incident on Binjiang Road last year."
"At that ti, the entire ergency hall was as noisy as a marketplace."
"Except for the quietness in the two surgical areas handled by Expert Lin, and even the hurried doctors and nurses passing through that area subconsciously quickened their steps, not daring to linger too long."
"Then I must make sure to see it!"
Wei Haiyuan's expression suddenly beca a bit more serious and he asked, "Dean, that Dean Kan wants Expert Lin to transfer to the Cancer Hospital in the Capital City to conduct this experintal treatnt."
"Maybe it's not all for the public good?"
Cheng Xingguang paused, then said slowly, "That's hard to say, maybe it is all for the public good."
"This experintal treatnt is of great significance, once results that can be promoted are achieved, it will be global headline news."
"This honor, it's hard for people not to be tempted."
Wei Haiyuan nodded and sighed, "What a pity, in just over three months, Anlin Hospital will be operational..."
Cheng Xingguang also sighed, then smiled, "Over the past year, our Affiliated Hospital has gained so much, being too greedy might bring consequences..."
The photo session with the doctor and nurse the went relatively smoothly, after all, Lin Jie was being himself, and An Kexin was also quite natural.
However, when it ca to the urban lady the shoot, Lin Jie was really struggling, sweating profusely the entire ti.
This the focused on An Kexin, and to highlight her domineering female CEO vibe, Lin Jie couldn't just put on a cold and distant face.
Lin Jie was so stifled by this, it was unbearable.
Either his posture was off or his expressions weren't vivid enough.
Kang Rui had no choice but to lower the expectations for Lin Jie repeatedly just to barely finish this the shoot.
After having dinner outside together, Lin Jie, An Kexin, Lin Miao, and An Keng returned to Xiangtai Apartnt, it was already past ten in the evening.
Zhang Xiaoxiao and Yao Henan hadn't gone to bed yet, practicing English conversation back and forth.
An Kexin went to her room to change clothes and remove makeup, while Lin Jie plopped down on the sofa in the living room, expressing his feelings, "Xiaoxiao, Nannan, today's photo shoot experience made realize that acting is not an easy job."
"Crying on demand and smiling in different ways, that's really not sothing just anyone can do."
An Keng laughed, "Brother Jie, you're too uptight, you need to loosen up, you're far behind my sister."
Lin Miao took out her phone, giggling, "Xiaoxiao, Nannan, I took so pictures with my phone, they turned out so nice, you should have a look..."
After looking at the photos, Yao Henan smiled with her lips pressed, "Uncle is very handso, and Auntie is also very pretty. Uncle, can we co back to attend your wedding with Auntie?"
Lin Jie pinched her nose and smiled, "You and Xiaoxiao are family to and Miaomiao, how could you miss our wedding!"
"How's the English practice going?"
A delighted Yao Henan glanced at Zhang Xiaoxiao and said, "The usual daily conversations are okay. But if it's taking classes in an all-English environnt, it becos very challenging."
Lin Jie smiled, "There's no need to worry about that."
"The school we contacted has a lot of experience in this area. They have arrangents in place, a transition period of about a year, to help you adapt to the teaching environnt over in the United States."
"So, you and Xiaoxiao just need to practice daily communication well enough."
To be honest, when it cos to learning English, he isn't worried about Yao Henan, but he's a bit concerned about Zhang Xiaoxiao.
Zhang Xiaoxiao only has an associate degree and hasn't used English for many years, so her foundation in English isn't very strong.
Lin Jie thought for a mont and said, "Currently, your English teacher is still Chinese. How about this, I'll hire a native Arican to teach you spoken English."
"After all, the way Aricans speak is like our dialects, it also has an accent."
Just then, the buzzing vibration of a phone ca from Lin Miao's bag.
Lin Miao took out her phone and handed it to Lin Jie, "It's a call from Zhou Ziyan."
Upon answering, an excited voice of Zhou Ziyan ca through, "Expert Lin, it's a success, we finally succeeded. The inducer extracted from traditional Chinese dicine, with no adverse reactions on the human body, has finally been successfully developed."
This was the news Lin Jie had been eagerly anticipating, and it ca all of a sudden.
He imdiately jumped up from the sofa and asked for confirmation, "The human trials have been conducted?"
"They have been conducted!"
"A total of fourteen people received injections of this inducer. Now that twenty-four hours have passed, none have shown any abnormal reactions..."
