Under Kong Mingqing's detailed explanation, Lin Jie roughly understood what was going on.
Qin Fang's father-in-law recovered well after a surgery by Chen Shi, which greatly boosted Qin Fang's social standing, but his pretty wife appeared to be sowhat indiscreet.
Working in telecommunications, she flaunted excessively, making the venerable Professor Chen Shi seem like their family doctor, at their beck and call.
Everyone has their kin and calamities, and currently, so colleagues were reaching out to her, but thankfully, Qin Fang stayed sober-minded and turned them away sternly.
But this ti, it was the leader of Qin Fang's wife's workplace making the request.
Under the barrage of tantrums, sweet talk, and other tactics from his wife, Qin Fang surrendered, knowing it wouldn't be appropriate to ask Lin Jie directly, so he turned to Kong Mingqing for help.
Upon hearing this, Lin Jie instinctively felt displeasure and aversion.
Standing up for one's family no matter how excessive is understandable; however, using others' goodwill to curry favor with superiors is simply outrageous.
Despite his aversion, Lin Jie didn't want to outright refuse and hurt their relationship, after all, both Kong Mingqing and Qin Fang had helped him before.
At the sa ti, he didn't want them to think it was too easy, lest similar requests continue to co to him.
After pondering for a while, Lin Jie spoke, "Brother Kong, to be honest with you, I do have so connections with Professor Chen Shi, but surely you understand, my relationship with Professor Chen is not on equal terms!"
This remark was quite accurate; their relationship indeed was not equal, but Kong Mingqing would never believe that Lin Jie seed to be on the active side in their relationship.
Feigning difficulty, Lin Jie said, "To put it selfishly, such connections diminish with each use. If used for outsiders like this, it won't be easy to ask for help when we truly need it ourselves!"
This principle was straightforward, and Kong Mingqing imdiately understood.
Moreover, he deeply empathized with it, having asked for favors and been asked for favors nurous tis. Certain favors, especially from prominent figures, truly are once-in-a-lifeti opportunities.
Such special favors should definitely be reserved for pivotal people or monts; for renowned experts like Professor Chen Shi, it's best they only intervene for one's family.
Thinking of this, Kong Mingqing said over the phone, "Lin Jie, I get it. You don't need to worry. I'll explain this to Qin Fang, and if he still doesn't understand, then there's no point in maintaining a brotherhood of over thirty years."
Lin Jie chuckled, "Co on, keeping up your friendship till now wasn't easy either."
"Brother Kong, here's what I'll do. This ti, I can speak to Professor Chen on your behalf. But you must clearly tell your buddy, this is the only opportunity!"
"This chance, whether he wants to save it for a crucial mont or use it up now, is up to him!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Jie looked at Lin Miao and Li Ting who had been attentively listening, and remarked, "I find myself becoming increasingly sophisticated and hypocritical, not even needing to draft my lies."
"Thinking back to my days running a general store, how simple and kind I was, never shortchanging anyone, nor selling fake or expired goods."
Li Ting chuckled and said, "Essentially a bad egg, don't bla it on a bad environnt."
"Exactly!" Lin Miao chid in, giggling, "Don't you have any idea what kind of person you are?"
Lin Jie was angry!
He reached out and pulled Li Ting, making her fall onto the bed, and then smacked her bottom, "Haven't I treated you well enough? Seems like I've been too gentle…"
At this mont, on the highest floor of Binhai Grand Hotel's presidential suite!
Luo Wantong stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the city with its breathtaking array of lights that never sleeps, and sighed, "I have gone through countless hardships to fight my way to this stage, just because I wanted to co back and personally crush that bastard into the ground!"
"I never thought he would've died! He died too soon, and too untily!"
Luo Shanshan chuckled, "Dying at the very mont of rebirth is quite a massive irony."
Luo Wantong frowned slightly and asked, "Could it be soone interfered?"
Luo Shanshan froze and said, "It shouldn't be! Binhai Tongren Hospital is the Han Family's, surely they took good care of the founder."
"Reportedly, he died of complications caused by heart failure, which led to multiple organ failure and death despite attempted rescue. dically, his case isn't uncommon."
"If there had been anything suspicious, with the Han Family's influence, they wouldn't let it rest."
Luo Wantong nodded and said, "That heart was transplanted in that Lin Jie who impressed you so greatly in that clinic?"
"Exactly!"
Luo Shanshan couldn't help but praise, "Lin Jie is the ultimate genius in dicine; if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it was true."
"That old bastard's death brought about Lin Jie's life! Viewed solely from this point, he died for a worthwhile cause."
Luo Wantong pondered for a mont and said, "You have always held him in high regard; I specifically went to see him one day. Shanshan, I won't claim expertise in all areas, but I am pretty good at judging people."
"Let put it this way, I didn't notice so especially remarkable qualities in Lin Jie. Well, can't say none at all, he is quite good-looking…"
Seeing Luo Wantong's knowing look, Luo Shanshan blushed red, pouting, "Dad, what are you thinking? I am much older than him! Moreover, I am not that kind of person."
"You couldn't see it because the timing wasn't right."
Recalling, Luo Shanshan said, "When Lin Jie entered the operating room, picking up the scalpel, it was as if he beca a completely different person! In those circumstances, you would feel he was the god of the operating room, a deity in control of everything capable of anything!"
Luo Wantong laughed heartily, "Then you should try to win him over more! Once we take over and revamp Phoenix Mountain Hospital, let young Lin Jie fully exhibit his talents there!"
"That won't be possible!"
Luo Shanshan expressed utmost frustration, "Lin Jie has already clearly told he has an agreent with the An Family to work in a hospital they plan to establish in the future."
"The An Family? That's the one you ntioned where An Weize with a brain tumor, removed by Lin Jie, and also has a very pretty daughter?"
Luo Shanshan replied, "That's the sa An Family! It's precisely because they are aware of Lin Jie's actual abilities that they have invested heavily early on to draw him over."
"What's there to it, if they can recruit, so can we! As long as it hasn't reached the final step, there's still a chance!"
Luo Wantong proudly declared, "In this world, there isn't a corner that can't be dislodged, it just depends on how much you are willing to invest."
