Qin Xiaoyuan heard the senior leader's words and couldn't help but shake his head inwardly. He was not willing to get involved in such matters.
However... if he could take the initiative himself, Qin Xiaoyuan would still be nonchalant about going with the flow.
After all, how capable was he really?
Once the official business was discussed, the senior leader looked at Qin Xiaoyuan with a smile and said, "By the way, Xiaoyuan, I hear your hospital has a young departnt head by the na of Chen Cang?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyuan imdiately responded with a polite smile, "Yes, there is such a person, young and strong, a very promising young man."
Having been a leader for so many years, Qin Xiaoyuan was definitely not one to make careless statents.
Nevertheless, the senior leader, upon hearing this, imdiately comnted smilingly, "Mhm, mhm, I feel more assured with your assessnt, Xiaoyuan."
"It's like this, Xuan Xuan is graduating with her doctorate from Nankai this year, and I am planning to have her work at Dongyang dical University, to beco a teacher. That way, our two families can support each other."
Qin Xiaoyuan was completely confused.
Going to work at Dongyang dical University surely didn't require using his connections, right?
The senior leader was deeply rooted in Dongyang province, and besides... with Xuan Xuan being a Nankai University Ph.D. graduate, entering Dongyang dical University wouldn't be an issue.
"Senior leader, Xuan Xuan has both the looks and the academic credentials; going to Dongyang dical University is really beneath her talents," he said.
Upon hearing this, the senior leader couldn't help but laugh, "That's the thing, I want to ask you for a favor, to play matchmaker between Chen Cang and Xuan Xuan."
"This girl studies pathological physiology. She went to the capital with her advisor earlier this year and happened to see Chen Cang's contest in cardiothoracic surgery skills and thought the young man was not bad."
"I, too, want her to co back to our Dongyang, and once her job is secured, the matter of choosing a partner also needs to be taken into serious consideration."
"The main reason I ca today was for this matter."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Xuan simply smiled...
Old Qin panicked at once!
Good heavens, he could agree to the work matters.
But... this matter? You co to ?
Isn't this the classic case of snatching a groom?
He absolutely couldn't agree!
Under no circumstances!
Yueyue's partner...
Qin Xiaoyuan's face revealed nothing, yet his heart was already churning like a stormy sea.
Such matters, he definitely couldn't agree to!
At that mont, Ji Ruyun grabbed Qin Xiaoyuan's leg tightly, signaling him: No more talking!
Exactly, what's there to talk about at this ti!
There's nothing to talk about!
In the following monts, Qin Xiaoyuan and Ji Ruyun both wore expressions of extre caution, finding the taste of the al completely unappetizing.
Work issues, those can be negotiated!
But...
Chen Cang was a matter of principle!
It was the old couple's bottom line and principle!
No discussion.
Old Qin was very firm on this point.
With this in mind, Qin Xiaoyuan took a deep breath, and finally, the al ended.
After leaving the restaurant and getting back into the car, Qin Xiaoyuan and Ji Ruyun exchanged glances.
"Wife! A competitor has appeared..."
Before Ji Ruyun could finish speaking, Old Qin's phone rang again.
It was the president of the provincial people's hospital.
"President Qin, I wanted to ask you about a personal matter."
"That Chen Cang from your ergency departnt, does he have a partner? I have a friend here who wants to get to know him..."
Qin Xiaoyuan quickly said, "Well, President Li, Chen Cang is about to get married, oh!"
"Of course it's true, wasn't he preparing to marry just before the New Year? He asked for marriage leave and all... Yeah, yeah, that's it..."
After hanging up the phone, Old Qin was stupefied!
Ji Ruyun's face changed, and she said to Qin Xiaoyuan, "You better keep a close eye on Little Chen, if so other woman snatches him away, I'll hold you accountable!"
Old Qin was startled, What does it have to do with ?
What does she an, 'I'll be held accountable if soone else snatches him away'?
Who am I supposed to explain this to?
Old Qin wore an innocent face.
The car arrived at the Health Commission.
When Ji Ruyun got out of the car, she looked at Qin Xiaoyuan with a wary expression, "You better figure this out, let tell you, Qin Xiaoyuan... even if you get snatched away, Xiaochen must not be snatched away!"
Old Qin heard it and, for so reason, felt a sour, astringent, bitter... and even a refreshing sensation?
But... is there anyone trying to snatch ?
He even felt a little expectant...
While driving to the hospital, Old Qin kept thinking.
All afternoon, for so reason, one by one, groups of three or five people ca to Old Qin, beating around the bush to inquire about Chen Cang's situation.
Old Qin was stunned... Is today a matchmaking festival?
For the first ti, he realized that more complex than the officialdom... was the love battlefield!
After returning ho in the evening, Qin Xiaoyuan flopped onto the sofa, "Wife, where's the girl?"
Ji Ruyun casually replied, "Night shift!"
Upon hearing this, Old Qin imdiately sat up, "Night shift... night shift, what ti is it for a night shift..."
"Chen Cang is about to be snatched away, and she's off to work a night shift!"
Ji Ruyun let out a cold laugh, "You want her to go to the ergency room!"
Qin Xiaoyuan was at a loss for words.
"I..."
Qin Xiaoyuan looked helpless.
"By the way, wife, I have sothing to tell you, today... a lot of people ca to to ask about Xiaochen's marital issues!"
When Ji Ruyun heard this, she instantly beca alert.
"What did you tell them?"
Old Qin, of course, said confidently, "I said he's already engaged and will be marrying soon!"
"But... as soon as those people heard the marriage hasn't taken place yet, their tone... I bet they wouldn't cast their hawk until they see the rabbit!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Ruyun no longer cared about cooking!
With a national crisis at hand, who cares about dinner!
Now, the most important thing was to figure out how to deal with the current rival in love.
Not to ntion anything else, this little girl Xuan Xuan has grown up quite beautifully...
The two of them sat on the sofa, strategizing with pen and paper in hand.
After a while!
Ji Ruyun suddenly said, "Old Qin... we need to et Chen Cang's family as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Old Qin's eyes also lit up!
"Right, that's the idea!"
Old Qin got up and paced around the room before exclaiming, "I think I need to have a talk with Xiao Chen. The girl is going to the capital with him next year. Before heading there, the two families should sit down together and et."
"Otherwise, let's wait until this snowstorm is over, find a weekend, and invite Xiao Chen to co over to our house for a visit. At the sa ti, we should have a good chat with him about this matter."
"After all, marriage is a major event that can't be taken lightly. The kids have known each other for three or four years and there's a foundation of feelings."
"If our two families sit down together and firm up this matter, we can then find a good day sooner rather than later and get the marriage certificate first."
Ji Ruyun nodded, "Mm, that makes sense."
"Otherwise, once he leaves next year, who knows what month and year it will be by then!"
Thinking this, Ji Ruyun picked up the phone: "I'll talk to Yueyue about this."
Old Qin heard this, "Can't you wait for the girl to co back before discussing it?"
Ji Ruyun rolled her eyes, "Don't you know that the night is long and full of dreams?"
The phone was connected.
Ji Ruyun said to Qin Yue, "Yueyue, Mommy has sothing to discuss with you, are you busy right now?"
Qin Yue's voice ca carefree, "Not busy, I'm just sitting in the duty room, Mom, what's up, tell ?"
Just then, suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
After Qin Xiaoyuan opened the door, he was taken aback, "Xiao Chen? How co you're here?"
Chen Cang stood at the doorway, "Uncle, Aunt, are you both ho? I have sothing I'd like to talk to you about."
Ji Ruyun quickly whispered into the phone, "Yueyue, hold on, Chen Cang just ca in!"
