At ten in the morning, while researching Wang Jinglan's surgery, Lin Jie received another call from General ng Yang.
As soon as he picked up, ng Yang's booming voice ca through, "Dr. Lin, I just heard about you and Dr. Xia. What's going on with you two?"
"Dr. Xia is worried about his daughter's future and wants to gauge my skills. I also want to take this opportunity to let more people know about my actual capabilities. That's how this surgery competition ca about."
Lin Jie thought to himself, this isn't tattling, it's truthfully stating the facts.
"Ah, that Xia Kaige!"
ng Yang muttered to himself on the phone and then asked, "You don't have any bets or stakes in this competition, do you?"
"There weren't any agreed stakes, but..."
Lin Jie admitted openly, "I've already said that Xia Yu can go back!"
"Dr. Xia has high hopes for his daughter, aiming to train her as a world-class doctor. I don't have that kind of skill, so I can't delay such a dical genius."
ng Yang said sowhat irritably, "This is an organizational decision, how can you two ss around privately."
"You guys are too..."
At this point, ng Yang suddenly realized that Lin Jie was not one of his subordinates, but a civilian dical expert in a cooperative relationship.
He imdiately controlled his temper and spoke in a calr tone, "Dr. Lin, personnel changes are a big deal. Out of responsibility for the trainees, you should have communicated with our side first."
"General ng, I also realize that this decision was a bit hasty!"
Lin Jie retreated a bit in his words, and continued, "I observed that Xia Yu seems to have so reservations about ."
"And my teaching thod is sowhat laissez-faire. I will provide the information in one go and mainly rely on them to absorb and learn it regularly."
"If soone is resistant, the learning effect can be imagined!"
ng Yang was silent on the phone for a mont before saying, "Xia Yu's comprehensive assessnt scores are the highest among this batch of young doctors, plus having an incredible father like that, a sense of pride is natural."
"A talented person will only bow to soone more talented."
"Dr. Lin, maybe through this surgery competition, Xia Yu will recognize your talent and then willingly and humbly learn from you!"
Lin Jie chuckled lightly, "General ng, that's a possibility."
"But..."
He laid out a major reason, "Clearly, Dr. Xia has a very clear plan for Xia Yu's training. Why should we disrupt this plan?"
"Xia Yu becoming a world-class doctor would be great for the country and the people! Even if this goal isn't reached, with Dr. Xia's training, her future achievents won't fall short."
Lin Jie laughed and said, "And the trainee replacing her, perhaps with my guidance, will achieve sothing in the future too!"
"Calculating this way, letting Xia Yu go back is a win-win, isn't it?"
This ti, ng Yang was silent on the phone for even longer before finally saying softly, "Dr. Lin, I realize you and Dr. Xia Kaige are essentially the sa, both incredibly proud."
"Alright, since you're insistent, I'll choose another trainee to replace Xia Yu."
After hanging up, Lin Jie muttered, "Looks like I'll have to pay more attention to this replacent! Hopefully, this person has so talent and isn't just a dumb student who only knows how to rote learn."
Unconsciously, Lin Jie embarked on another competition with Xia Kaige, a competition of talent developnt.
Only this ti, Lin Jie was obviously starting from a disadvantageous position, knowing nothing about this substitute.
Around noon, just as Lin Jie had finished preparing lunch, an unexpected visitor arrived — An Kexin!
Seeing the dishes on the dining table, she said proudly, "I ca right at alti, what a coincidence. Give a mont, I'll wash my hands."
When An Kexin ca back, Lin Jie had already set the table and served the rice.
As she picked up the rice, she noticed Lele squatting by the table, staring at her intently, and couldn't help asking, "Lin Jie, why is Lele always looking at ?"
Lin Jie laughed, "It's a silent protest. Originally, the extra food I made was for Lele, but now... it's going to you."
An Kexin laughed, put down the bowl, reached out and petted Lele's head, "Lele, I'm sorry, you have to eat dog food for lunch. Next ti, I'll bring you so chicken legs."
Lele seed to understand her words, gave a soft whine, and then lay down beside Lin Jie's leg.
Halfway through the al, An Kexin suddenly complained, "Lin Jie, now Keng has turned bad. To keep her quiet, I had to make a lot of concessions."
"You are all family, Keng wouldn't be heartless!"
Lin Jie thought for a mont and probed, "Kexin, my sister knows, your sister knows, maybe there are others who know but are pretending not to."
"Should we make our relationship public?"
An Kexin shook her head and insisted, "Let's not make it public."
"They can know all they want, but as long as we don't make it public, it won't stop others from pursuing you, nor affect you liking soone else."
Lin Jie frowned and said, puzzled, "Kexin, your reasoning doesn't make sense. Even if we went public, even got married, if I really wanted to fall for soone else, nothing can stop it!"
"Lin Jie, can we not talk about this topic?"
Seeing An Kexin staring at him with big, sowhat pitiful eyes, Lin Jie nodded and said, "Alright, let's not talk about it. Why did you co here? Don't tell it was just to have lunch."
An Kexin's expression instantly beca radiant, as she laughed, "Let tell you a few pieces of great news. The first is, Anlin Hospital now has a dean!"
Lin Jie asked curiously, "Oh, who is it? I haven't heard a thing about it!"
"Gong Xuepeng, he's the dean of the city's Fifth Hospital!" An Kexin said excitedly!
Lin Jie was even more surprised and said, "Gong Xuepeng, it was him?"
"Although you ntioned before, both you and Uncle An considered him the most suitable candidate for dean. But didn't you say he politely declined the invitation, waiting to retire abroad to enjoy life with his children?"
"Did you offer him a high salary to move him?"
An Kexin giggled and said, "It's still the sa salary as before, it's just that circumstances have changed!"
"His son's business abroad ran into so difficulties, almost on the brink of bankruptcy, so Dean Gong's idyllic retirent plans vanished, forcing him to work a few more years to earn his pension!"
"He talked to my father last night and confird taking the position of Anlin Hospital's dean."
She laughed, "Although it sounds a bit schadenfreude, I must say, his son's business troubles ca at just the right ti. Now, you've also gained your dical license..."
"I feel like all the luck is on our side now!"
Lin Jie echoed happily, "May our luck keep getting better! Any more good news?"
"Of course, there is..."
An Kexin stood up, formally announcing, "Dr. Lin, I am pleased to announce that you will beco the face of Weize dical Instrunts!"
"Oh, what?" Lin Jie was a bit confused.
An Kexin further explained, "Just like a celebrity endorsent, you are the spokesperson for Weize dical Instrunts."
"In the future, your image will be on the packaging of the company's syringes, IV bags, infusion tubes, and urine bags, as well as in the company's promotional ads and brochures."
Lin Jie frowned and said, "dical instrunts aren't consur products for the general public; there's no need for a spokesperson, right? Also, printing my image on a urine bag packaging, let's skip that part!"
An Kexin ca up behind Lin Jie, embraced him, her face close to his, and said sweetly, "You are now a rising star in Binhai's dical world. This upcoming surgical duel with Xia Kaige will further spread your fa across the country!"
"With you as the spokesperson, it will effectively enhance the company's dical instrunts' reputation in the industry, making it easier for us to expand to more provinces and cities."
"Moreover, the company will pay you a generous endorsent fee..."
An Kexin stroked Lin Jie's chest, biting his earlobe, tempting him, "Besides the endorsent fee, there are more benefits..."
The following morning at 8:30, Donghua Hospital.
Lin Jie explained the surgical process to Wang Jinglan's family who accompanied her to the hospital.
Those who specially ca to the hospital included the old Master Fu, Fu Hechang, Fu Xiuyuan, and Wang Jinglan's parents, a pair of intellectuals, the father being an editor-in-chief at a newspaper in the Capital City and the mother a writer who published several books.
"The surgery will take about eight to ten hours, during which we will extract nerve fibers from various surface muscle tissues throughout Wang Jinglan's body and transplant them to her damaged left upper arm muscle..."
Wang's father worriedly asked, "Dr. Lin, will this cause other muscle tissues in Lanlan to lose nerve control and lead to new muscle paralysis?"
Lin Jie carefully explained, "This situation won't occur!"
"The muscle nerve fibers we extract are carefully calculated and within the body's self-healing and functional compensation range, so it won't cause new muscle paralysis. Rest assured about that."
Old Master Fu spoke up, "Dr. Lin is the best and won't do anything he's not confident about, so everyone should just wait with peace of mind!"
Lin Jie nodded to everyone, then turned and entered the preparation room, starting to get ready!
When he finally entered the operating room, he saw Chen Shi, Tao Taqing, Yao Siyuan, Song Licheng, and Yang Jinglong already in their positions!
However, Wang Jinglan had not yet been anesthetized and was looking at Lin Jie with so anxiety in her eyes!
Lin Jie approached and gently comforted her, "Don't worry. This surgery is all about precision and patience, and I'm particularly good at these."
"Okay, I believe in you; we can begin!" Wang Jinglan slowly closed her eyes.
