Chapter 256: Revised: Chapter 255 and the Bet with the Head of Neurosurgery
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a shiver in their hearts.
They couldn’t help but look towards the Neurology Departnt director.
This director was a mischievous old man…
One of the doctors tried to smooth things over with a smile, “Director River, it’s really kind of you. You’ve had a hard ti giving us a lecture today, and you’re still willing to share your PPT with us. We really appreciate it.”
“Yeah, yeah, thank you, Director River.”
Once one person started, everyone joined in complenting.
Ivy River didn’t want to escalate things further and replied coldly, “Thank you.”
The Neurology Departnt director watched Ivy River turn around and leave, visibly angry.
He yelled out, “Your PPT has errors, just wait, I’ll find them and debunk you! I’ll make sure every doctor in this hospital knows you’re a quack.”
Ivy River couldn’t help but laugh at the Neurology Departnt director.
She wanted to settle things peacefully, but so people just couldn’t let it go.
The Traditional dicine Departnt noticed the mocking smile on Ivy River’s face and began to panic.
Other departnts didn’t know Ivy River well, but they instinctively felt that things were about to blow up.
“Alright then, I’ll wait for you to slap in the face. But make sure you study Ayla’s paper on ‘Acupuncture Theory’ published abroad, and then reexamine my PPT today. Make sure to take a good look, there might be a surprise waiting for you.”
“Just because you tell to look at it doesn’t an I will,” the Neurology Departnt director shouted loudly.
Ivy River remained calm, “You might not understand my PPT, but after reading that paper, you’ll get it. I’m just trying to help you.”
“No need!”
“Alright then, I’ll give you three days. If you don’t publish my errors on the dical University forum within three days, don’t bla for being impolite.”
The Neurology Departnt director got even angrier at her nonchalant tone, “I don’t need three days! I’ll point them out this afternoon after my surgery. I’ll make you admit defeat willingly!”
“Fine, if you point them out, I’ll humbly accept and even apologize to you.”
Ivy River suddenly changed her tone, “But if you don’t find any errors, you should publicly apologize to on the dical University forum. How about that?”
Seeing Ivy River’s serious expression, everyone tried to persuade the Neurology Departnt director.
“Director, don’t get upset with Ivy River. It’s not appropriate to post this on the forum.”
“Davis, just listen to . If there really is an issue, we can discuss it with Director River. If there’s no issue, it proves that Director River is academically solid, right? After all, everyone has their expertise. There’s no need to be so petty.”
The Orthopaedics Departnt director couldn’t help but intervene. He had heard of Ivy River’s abilities.
If there were any errors, they would probably be minor.
But the chances were slim…
The Neurology Departnt director wouldn’t budge, “Don’t try to convince . If I don’t find errors, I’ll publicly apologize to you on the forum. How’s that sound?”
“Everyone heard that. The director said it himself. Don’t let people spread rumors that I, Ivy River, coerced you.”
“No, it’s purely voluntary! But if you lose, you must publicly admit your mistakes. I won’t let you mislead others.”
The Neurology Departnt director stord off furiously after speaking.
The Orthopaedics Departnt director tried to persuade Ivy River once more.
Ivy River waved her hand and said, “Director Davis said it himself, not . I didn’t intend to blow things up. You should know that.”
“Yes, yes, none of us want to escalate things. How about we just ignore him?”
The Orthopaedics Departnt director smiled apologetically.
Ivy River shook her head, “I think Director Davis should reflect on his issues. He shouldn’t be so arrogant. I have so things to take care of in the Traditional dicine Departnt. I’ll take my leave, Director Johnson.”
Evelyn King appeared from sowhere and patted:
“You should persuade Davis to apologize to Ivy River soon. I listened in on her lecture, and it was incredible. There were no errors, and her logic was impeccable.”
The Orthopaedics Departnt director spread his hands, “It’s not that I don’t want to persuade him. He just won’t listen. You know his personality as well as anyone, just like you used to be.”
“Co on, why bring into this? But you can use as an example. Everyone knows how miserable I was back then. I’m a living example!”
Evelyn King recalled her previous confrontation with Ivy River, still feeling a chill.
“Ha, that stubborn old man. Let him run into soone who won’t back down like Ivy River!”
The Orthopaedics Departnt director was frustrated just thinking about trying to talk sense into the Neurology Departnt director.
“Last ti I went to discuss sothing with him, he was still acting all high and mighty! He really thinks the dical University can’t function without him. Now Ivy River is more respected than he is! Many co here just for her. There are always people better than you. This isn’t our era anymore.”
“Forget it, just leave him be. I can’t persuade him. Now, I need to prepare for the Traditional dicine competition. Ivy River secured a spot for .”
Evelyn King couldn’t be bothered with this anymore.
“She got you a spot?” The Orthopaedics Departnt director, knowing Ivy River’s reputation, was surprised.
Evelyn King nodded, “Yes, she personally told a few days ago. She asked to bring glory to the dical University. She’s really a good person, though a bit sharp-tongued but soft-hearted. Alright, enough chatting, I have to go back.”
The Orthopaedics Departnt director watched Evelyn King leave, unable to help but stroke his chin, “Seems like she isn’t completely ruthless. Not bad…”
…
Blake Family’s old residence.
Old Lady Blake looked at Alexander Hodges’ grandmother, “What are you doing here? You can’t really be here for a chat, can you?”
Old Lady Hodges smiled, “Yes, we haven’t seen each other for a long ti. I ca back and hurried here to catch up.”
Old Lady Blake snorted, “You should go ho. Otherwise, Soren will call soon to ask for you.”
She was indeed Alexander Hodges’ grandmother.
Her purpose was simple: urging marriage.
Her health was poor, so she had been living abroad, but whenever she returned to the country, she would co to chat.
She even wished she could stay at the Blake Family’s old residence, so when Soren ca to ask for her, she had to smile apologetically.
Old Lady Hodges shook her head, “I won’t leave. Do you know? I missed you the most while I was abroad. Even if you don’t miss , you shouldn’t chase away.”
“Amara, you should go quickly. Soren will be here soon. Why don’t you visit him first before coming to see , so he won’t think I’m keeping you?”
“No way! I know my son well.”
Old Lady Hodges was very sure.
Old Lady Blake sneered, “No way? You know how he was when he ca to ask for you. If you’ve forgotten, I can help you rember.”
“Let’s not talk about that brat. It ruins the mood. You’re the lucky one, with a capable granddaughter-in-law and now great-grandchildren. Unlike , still alone.”
Old Lady Hodges had a look of envy.
ntioning the two young ones and Ivy River made Old Lady Blake laugh, “Not really.”
“How not? Your granddaughter-in-law is now the Little Divine Doctor! Ivy is amazing! She’s a leader at the dical University now!”
As she spoke, Old Lady Hodges took out her phone and put on her reading glasses.
