Two days later, the woman who had suffered from hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state nonketotic coma had woken up, and her physical condition had greatly improved. She was ready to be transferred to endocrinology for continued treatment.

The woman’s name was Cheng Fang, and she had only a few hundred yuan on her. She was an outsider who had lived in Anyang City for three years.

Since the woman had been admitted to the hospital, the man had not visited again, and Cheng Fang had been silent throughout, from beginning to end, without saying a word about paying.

It wasn’t until she was transferred to another department that she secretly left

the hospital.

Because of this, Chen Cang was criticized.

Just when everyone thought that this matter would end just like that, on Friday evening, just as they were about to get off work, Cheng Fang came back. She found Chen Cang, and in front of everyone in the office, she knelt down, kowtowed to Chen Cang, then got up and left.

The sight left everyone in the office dumbfounded!

It was only when Chen Cang ran after her that he learned Cheng Fang had

already gone far away.

The head nurse called Chen Cang to tell him that Cheng Fang had paid all of

her medical expenses.

Wang Yong had been somewhat distracted at work for the past two days. That evening, just as Chen Cang was about to leave, Wang Yong stopped him outright.

“Got plans tonight?” Wang Yong asked, scratching his head with a somewhat

awkward expression.

Chen Cang smiled, “Nothing much, why?”

Wang Yong quickly responded, “Well… how about we have dinner together tonight?”

Chen Cang nodded with a smile, “Sure.”

The two didn’t go anywhere fancy, just to a barbecue stall near Dama Village, where they ordered a case of beer and a pile of barbecue.

Wang Yong filled Chen Cang’s glass to the brim and said, “Come on, Chen Cang, let’s drink.”

With a glass down the hatch and a bite of fire roasted green peppers, one felt absolutely comfortable!

Empowered by the spiciness, Chen Cang took another sip.

When two men drink, they either talk a lot or drink a lot.

Wang Yong obviously had something on his mind, and after only a few drinks, he started talking more and slurred his speech.

“Cang Er, what do you think of me?” Wang Yong asked, staring at Chen Cang.

Chen Cang nodded and toasted, “Sunny and cheerful, ambitious and proactive. Xiao Lin said that if you had lived in ancient times, you’d have been a hero, one who hated evil as if it were a personal enemy, acting chivalrous and upholding justice.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong chuckled and said self-deprecatingly, “Bullshit! A hero, 1 am not; I’m far from it. To tell you the truth, Cang Er, to pour my heart out—I sometimes even envy you! I envy you to the point of jealousy!” “We both joined the hospital at the same time, right? I thought I was doing pretty well after that, assisting the chief surgeon in operations and often participating in departmental activities. Honestly, I consider myself ambitious and proactive.”

“Let’s face it, isn’t it all about competition among colleagues? I’ve been comparing myself with you, and now I’ve realized that you are truly remarkable! It’s just that you usually keep it low profile! Among our group, Cang Er, you are the most down to earth and unassuming. If it weren’t for that chemical plant explosion last time, I wouldn’t have known how capable you really are. Truly!”

“That was when I realized, without noticing, I had fallen so far behind you.” Chen Cang sighed, “We have different personalities. I’m not very sociable, and I like to read books when I have free time. You’re different, Wang Yong. If you take a look outside, how many people in our hospital don’t know Wang Yong?

“So don’t overthink it. Put in an extra effort this time and pass your exam. We have equal pay for equal work now; the gap between contracts and official status isn’t that big.”

Chen Cang’s reassurance did have some effect, and Wang Yong sighed, Ah… I wish I could be like you, standing out and working in a big hospital! Make my parents proud and happy.”

“I’m not as good a student as you, didn’t get into graduate school. Getting a contract job in the hospital and keeping it till old age would be good enough for me. I don’t even dare to dream about becoming a chief. All 1 want is to learn some skills, so 1 don’t end up unemployed in the future.”

“When I first heard the chief was assigning me to you, I felt a fire in my belly. 1 thought about resigning, for real!”

“1 agree you are better than me, but how much better? How much could I learn from you? 1, Wang Yong, am upfront-I hope you don’t make fun of me, this is how I truly feel.”

“But during this time, I’ve come to realize I was being short-sighted and aspiring too high. The gap between us is just too big, not to mention anything else. Just look at the Cheng Fang incident—if something had really happened to Cheng Fang in our hospital, let alone getting a permanent position, I’d consider myself lucky not to get fired!”

“So today, I asked you to come out because I owe you an apology. Don’t look down on me, really, from now on I’m truly convinced by you, Cang Er. From now on, I’m your subordinate doctor. 1’11 listen to you. Come on, let’s drink this one up!”

There were nine bottles of beer, Chen Cang drank four and Wang Yong drank five. They drank too much.

They talked too much!

But there were more honest words.

After drinking, some people like to boast, some like to cry, some like to speak their minds, some choose to be silent…

Chen Cang liked to go pee.

When he came back, Wang Yong had already settled the bill.

And Chen Cang saw a question mark rising above Wang Yong’s head.

Is there a task?

[Ding! Help Wang Yong complete his task: Successfully obtain a contract position. After completing the task, receive a reward: i: Randomly gain a skill training opportunity; 2: Level up +1; 3: Unlock the mentoring system.]

Chen Cang was startled!

Such generous rewards?

Actually, Wang Yong was a good guy, even though he had his little schemes—who doesn’t have their own little schemes? Who doesn’t plan for their future?

At least he was genuine, saying whatever came to mind, straightforward, which also made him easy to get along with.

Chen Cang casually chose to accept the task.

Tomorrow is Saturday again, and Chen Cang has to be on call at the hospital and can’t go to the plastic surgery clinic. He called Zhang Zhixin to ask for a day off.

But Zhang Zhixin told Chen Cang, “Tomorrow your Sister Xiao’s plastic surgery results will be revealed.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang’s eyes lit up!

Right!

By tomorrow, nearly a week will have passed. The healing should be almost complete, the swelling should have gone down, but the exact progress of the recovery is still uncertain.

After hearing this, Chen Cang smiled, “Take a photo for me tomorrow. ”

Zhang Zhixin nodded, “No problem.”

After saying this, Zhang Zhixin suddenly mentioned, “Chen, let me tell you something.”

“Our director had a talk with the doctors in our department a few days ago, about an issue with the emergency department. Director Zhang is somewhat dissatisfied with the emergency department’s actions this time and has given us a mandate.”

“From now on, any general surgical conditions brought in by your emergency department that you guys can’t handle, invite us for consultations or surgeries, they must all count as surgeries for our department, and you have to complete the transfer procedures, or else it’s not acceptable.

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang thought that Zhang Youfu was indeed a cunning man.

He could say it, and he could do it!

To come up with such a tactic, impressive indeed!

Chen Cang nodded, “Thankyou, Teacher Zhang. I’ll come over the day after tomorrow.”

Zhang Zhixin smiled, “What are we, if not friends? No need to thank me! Come over the day after tomorrow.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhixin also smiled. Setting other things aside, Chen Cang’s capability was already enough to pique Zhang Zhixin s interest. After all, having a top-tier designer was a significant matter for the development of their plastic surgery hospital.

Once Xiao Tianhua’s surgery results are out, he planned to chat with a few bosses, do some networking, and offer Chen Cang a lucrative collaboration contract, even stocks if possible!

If he could tie Chen Cang to the same boat, that would be ideal..
