After the theory exam in the morning concluded, out of courtesy, Lin Jie had to wait for the experts on the panel and the school leaders to leave the small auditorium first.
Dozens of Lin Jie's friends and family stood quietly in their original positions, waiting for Lin Jie!
Seeing Chen Shi's clearly displeased expression, An Keng tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Uncle, don't be harsh on Brother Lin Jie later. I feel like what he said was quite satisfying."
Chen Shi sighed depressively and said, "Keng, you don't really understand the relationship between Lin Jie and ! How dare I criticize him, you have no idea, sotis he even dares to..."
Feeling that continuing would damage his own image, Chen Shi stopped in ti and moved with the others to greet the approaching Lin Jie!
"Brother, you're amazing!"
Lin Miao was the first to step forward, taking Lin Jie's arm and asking with concern, "You've been standing all morning, aren't you tired?"
"Not tired, compared to performing surgery, this is nothing!"
Lin Jie looked around at the familiar faces and said loudly, "Thank you all for taking the ti out of your precious rest and work ti to specifically co and support . It's lunchti now, we..."
"Lin Jie..."
An Kexin called out, interrupting him, and said, "I've already booked a few private rooms at Chunlai Restaurant near the east gate of the school, let's all head over there together now!"
Seeing the An Family had already made preparations, Lin Jie shot An Kexin a grateful glance, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go, we'll all go to Chunlai Restaurant for lunch."
He then said to Chen Lili, "Chen Lili, make sure to call your brother Lu and Chef Song and the others who are with him!"
After saying this, forty or fifty people marched out of the small auditorium in a grand procession!
Because the distance wasn't too far, everyone walked over.
As they walked, people naturally ford into several small groups.
The people from Zhujia Port ford one group; the old neighbors from Garden District One were another group; Lin Jie, Lin Miao, and Li Ting walked together with the An Family, Chen Shi, and the three people from Xiangtai Apartnt, while the others grouped together in twos and threes.
Speaking of which, those most deeply touched by Lin Jie's transformation were the old neighbors from Garden District One.
They used to know Lin Jie inside and out, but now they felt a strange unfamiliarity.
Mr. Qin from the community committee was a college student working at the grassroots, and he used to look after Lin Jie and his sister a lot!
He looked at Lin Jie, faintly surrounded by the An Family and others, and couldn't help but sigh, "As the saying goes, a scholar who has been away for three days should be seen with new eyes, I always thought that was an exaggeration."
"But after seeing the change in the Lin siblings, I finally understood, the ancients did not deceive us!"
Kong Mingqing chuckled and said, "Mr. Qin, stop spouting literary references. Lin Jie now is rely enjoying hardship after bitterness, think of the days he and his sister lived for the past twenty years, sigh..."
Zhang Xiaoxiao, Mr. Qin, and others thought so too and couldn't help but sigh endlessly.
Suddenly, Mr. Qin's eyes lit up, and he said, "Lin Jie is going to beco Professor Chen's student soon and will definitely et many renowned experts. How about we ask him to introduce an expert to treat Cai Qi's sleepwalking problem?"
"She often sleepwalks out in her pajamas in the middle of the night, and if sothing were to happen, it wouldn't be good!"
Kong Mingqing just pouted and shook his head, saying, "Even experts may not have a way with Cai Qi and Chen Liang's situation! Didn't Cai Qi see a doctor? The doctor said it's related to psychological stress."
"Think about those two; they argue every other day. This emotional issue, unless resolved, not even a deity could help!"
Ten minutes later, everyone arrived at Chunlai Restaurant.
An Kexin had reserved four large private rooms here, and people grouped mainly by small groups, slightly averaging the numbers, and each entered a private room to be seated.
In the private room where Lin Jie was, Chen Shi was unanimously asked to sit at the head seat, An Weize took the second, and then it was Xu Xingye, Ye Hongqing, and Li Haoxiang, Lin Jie, Lin Miao, Li Ting, An Kexin, An Keng, all sat freely.
After a morning of interactions, with Lin Jie serving as a link, Xu Xingye, Ye Hongqing, and Li Haoxiang quickly beca familiar with Chen Shi and An Weize.
Ye Hongqing patted his big belly and said indignantly, "I never thought that even the sacred grounds of academia would be rife with scheming and intrigue, and in such a base manner."
"What do you an by base?"
Xu Xingye gave him a sideways glance and said, "If Lin Jie hadn't quickly drawn other experts into the matter, do you really think those experts would have stood up to point out the problem with that question as that old man said?"
"Is that really the case, Professor Chen?" Ye Hongqing looked bewildered!
Chen Shi pondered for a mont, sighed, and said, "What President Xu said is likely the truth."
"Out of face, those experts probably wouldn't publicly point out the issue with that question, after all, Lin Jie is just a young twenty-year-old, while Hu Yitong is a long-established dean!"
An Keng suddenly asked, "Uncle, didn't you see the problem with that question? You could have pointed it out loudly!"
At these words, Chen Shi's face turned slightly red, his expression fird up, and he said, "I am Lin Jie's nominator, for to step up and point it out, it wouldn't be appropriate in terms of position!"
"Excuses are cover-ups, maybe you just didn't see it yourself!" An Keng muttered softly!
This is a blatant trap!
At this mont, the hot dishes hadn't been served yet. Seeing that Chen Shi's face was starting to show signs of darkening, Lin Jie picked up a piece of crystal ham for An Keng and said, "Keng, you must be hungry, eat sothing first!"
An Keng snorted, and gave the piece of crystal ham that Lin Jie picked up to An Kexin. She picked up another piece for herself and said with a grunt, "I'm still mad at you, I won't eat anything you pick!"
Everyone else heard this childish remark, as if from a five or six-year-old, and laughed heartily!
The atmosphere in the room beca a bit livelier again.
Li Haoxiang smiled and asked, "Professor Chen, Lin Jie, what exactly do the practical skills in the afternoon examine? Surely it's not just finding veins to give injections?"
Chen Shi shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. It should be related to curing the sick, or maybe surgical skills."
He then smiled happily and said, "However, after the lesson this morning, they shouldn't pose any absurd questions in the afternoon, at least not questions they themselves can't solve."
"And things they themselves can do, Lin Jie will certainly have no problem with."
Lin Miao chid in, "Exactly! Brother, if they dare make things difficult for you again in the afternoon, just drag them down with you like you did this morning!"
Li Ting, who hadn't spoken much, said, "Lin Jie isn't a doctor yet. Surely, they wouldn't bring in a few patients for him to diagnose, right?"
The room fell silent, and everyone pondered this possibility!
After a mont, Chen Shi slowly said, "Even Hu Yitong has a bottom line! Giving real patients to see, though it might be a piece of cake for Lin Jie, this sort of assessnt, what would others think?"
"If he can already cure and save people, why bother with graduate school? Just beco a doctor already."
After saying this, Chen Shi had an urge to laugh; if the country really relaxed the restrictions on qualifying for the dical exam, Lin Jie wouldn't need this formality!
At this point, the waiter began to serve hot dishes, and everyone started eating and drinking!
Li Ting added a piece of fish to Lin Jie's plate, "Eating fish is good for the brain; you've surely killed quite a few brain cells this morning, eat more fish and replenish them!"
Lin Jie replied with a touch of pride, "To be honest, this morning really didn't require much brainpower, just a bit hard on the tongue, said so much."
"Wasn't dragging a few experts down with you sothing you thought hard about?" Li Ting pursued.
Lin Jie proudly said, "Not really! When I saw Dean Fang and Dean Tao also frowning, it suddenly hit , the questions I couldn't answer, they certainly couldn't either."
"Since that was the case, I might as well drag them along to keep company!"
Chen Shi remarked with so relief, "At that ti, my heart was really in my throat!"
"But after hearing your words, I was so excited I nearly jumped up. I thought at the ti, as long as one expert couldn't answer correctly, no one would dare question your ability!"
"I just didn't expect Hu Yitong to go too far this ti, the question was too much, and no one could answer it!"
Lin Jie chuckled and said, "It wasn't that Hu Yitong went overboard; with Hu Yuanqing feeding him information, he has a good understanding of ."
"In order to ensure I couldn't answer, he had to make the questions unsolvable!"
He suddenly sighed long and hard, disappointedly saying, "Actually, my original intention was to breeze through purely on my own rit. I didn't expect to have to rely on small tricks and cleverness in the end!"
Li Ting consoled, "As long as the result is the sa, the process doesn't matter!"
Lin Jie shook his head with a look of regret and said, "How could the result be the sa!"
"Tingting, don't you realize that now many people will think my ability is at least on par with those examiners?"
"Pfft…"
Upon hearing Lin Jie's boastful remark, Xu Xingye hadn't swallowed his tea yet, spat it all over Ye Hongqing sitting next to him.
Li Haoxiang also struggled to keep from laughing aloud, thinking to himself, "Still young, as soon as he achieves a bit of success, his tail is up…"
He suddenly noticed that neither Chen Shi nor An Weize had any particular reaction to Lin Jie's words.
Did they truly acknowledge what he said, or do they already know his character well?
Li Haoxiang's curiosity was piqued!
He discovered an interesting thing; he and Xu Xingye were the only ones reacting unusually, no, it should be called a normal reaction. The others, including Ye Hongqing, seed to quite agree with Lin Jie's statent just now.
Chen Shi suddenly asked, "Lin Jie, when you dragged those guys down with you, besides our incitent, Principal Pan's words were also crucial, had you t before?"
"t once!"
Lin Jie briefly recounted the story of rear-ending soone and rescuing them.
Chen Shi sighed, "This is a case of those who help others are also helped, good people indeed get good returns."
