System Came When the Doctor was Thirty

"Moreover, I actually should thank you. There aren't many patients with ruptured pancreas, let alone ones who enter the emergency operating room and come out safely in a city-level hospital."

"Director Yao said, we can use this case for a lecture presentation."

Song Daoneng was a participant in the operation. Although he didn't perform the critical surgery, as the attending physician, he could flaunt the case after hiding the patient's key information.

The incidence of ruptured pancreas is very low, and the mortality rate is very high!

"Director Song, you're too kind. What I managed to do was only to get the patient into the operating room." Lu Cheng said modestly.

"Being able to safely get the patient into the operating room and stabilize vital signs is his good luck, encountering someone who can spar with Yama."

"Dr. Lu, I don't mean anything else. It's just that if there are similar cases in the future, feel free to call me."

"I've also applied with Director Yao. In the future, I will be available for this kind of surgery 24/7." Song Daoneng said.

After listening, Lu Cheng's gaze flickered.

There are definitely fools in the world, but not many.

Song Daoneng is obviously not a fool; he's very 'keen'. Sometimes, in a city-level hospital, if you want to stand out, either you have a strong background, or you have extraordinary talent.

Otherwise, you have to find another way!

"Then I'll thank you on behalf of the patient, Director Song. When I call next time, you can't blame me for being inconsiderate."

"I am indeed serious about it." Lu Cheng preemptively warned.

"Dr. Lu, you're joking, right? I voluntarily offered, so I wouldn't go back on my word."

"When you need help, just call out." Song Daoneng promised, patting his chest.

"Of course, Dr. Lu, when you return, we must find some time for a drink together."

"Alright!" Lu Cheng agreed readily.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Cheng walked to the table, then took out his bank card: "Mom, do you guys still have money?"

"My account doesn't have much left either, you can take it to use."

Tian Hui pushed Lu Cheng's bank card away with a sigh: "Oh, why would we take your money?"

"It's just that, hearing from Mu Leng's hometown people, Mu Leng had an argument with his brother, and to prove himself, he brought a large dowry."

"With the little money we have, we're embarrassed to offer it."

Lu Nanjia remained silent; maybe this was the reason too.

A marriage between unequal families can never be completely peaceful!

Lu Nanjia and Tian Hui actually don't want to 'take advantage,' but they truly can't balance with Mu Leng's side.

"Mom, it's fine. We should do whatever we can accordingly."

"Uncle Mu and Aunt Yan didn't mean it." Lu Cheng said.

"As the saying goes, 'wealth without homeland is like wearing embroidered clothes at night.' Uncle Mu never thought of dominating; if it weren't for his brother overstepping, he wouldn't have gone this far."

Lu Nanjia said: "We're not blaming Mu Leng and Xiao Yan."

"We just fear others saying you're marrying up."

Lu Cheng said: "Hey, the fact that I can marry up proves my capabilities are outstanding."

"Right?"

Tian Hui said: "Xiao Lu, if only you had a degree, then it wouldn't be too bad."

Lu Cheng rolled his eyes after hearing: "What about a doctoral degree? Most PhD holders, without extraordinary opportunities, can't be as wealthy as Uncle Mu, check and you'll find."

"Alright, let's not think too much."

"The money we have was earned bit by bit, clean and honest."

"If Uncle Mu and Aunt Yan only sought money and status, they wouldn't have arranged the marriage of Xiao Shu to me."

"Besides, you've known Xiao Shu; she's not like that either. As for how outsiders view and talk, it won't affect us."

Lu Cheng was completely surprised that what his parents worried about was the mismatch between his education and Mu Nanshu.

...

In the evening, Lu Cheng was called out by Zhang Tiesheng over the phone.

"Teacher Chen, Brother Zhang." Lu Cheng saw only Chen Song and Zhang Tiesheng at the table. Du Qiang wasn't there; it seemed to be a private meeting.

After Chen Song came to Long County this time, the highly capable learner Zhang Tiesheng replaced Lu Cheng's position, accompanying Chen Song constantly.

"Teacher Lu is here, perfect, we can start drinking." Zhang Tiesheng quickly stood up to greet him, more courteous than Lu Cheng.

Chen Song wanted to stand up, but Lu Cheng had already sat down ahead of him and said: "Teacher Chen, thank you for your hard work, long time no see."

Chen Song said irritably: "Is it me working hard or you guys? I saw the messages in the group."

"You are truly a bunch of oddballs coming together?"

Zhang Tiesheng, hearing Chen Song's excitement, didn't dare to speak.

Lu Cheng laughed: "Teacher Chen, apart from me and Dai Linfang, who else is an oddball?"

Chen Song blurted out: "Your wife."

But Chen Song shut his mouth immediately because Lu Cheng shouldn't be aware of Mu Nanshu's threat to him.

Chen Song narrowly escaped a redo; although Mu Nanshu secretly perfected Chen Song's paper, he got caught anyway.

Chen Song is now quite passive and honest in the group.

Zhang Tiesheng said: "Teacher Chen, I think sister-in-law is great, gentle, kind, and generous."

Chen Song nodded: "Indeed, let's not discuss this further."

"Xiao Lu, have you thought about when to arrange for Xiao Zhang to join the group?"

Chen Song also began to help Zhang Tiesheng seek benefits.

Lu Cheng said: "Teacher Chen, didn't Brother Zhang say he's waiting for a stable deputy senior position before transferring to State People's Hospital?"

Chen Song replied: "So, with all these good opportunities now, you don't plan to take him?"

Zhang Tiesheng, seeing Chen Song being so direct, quickly explained: "It's possible in the future, Teacher Chen."

Lu Cheng thought for a moment and said: "Teacher Chen, aren't these currently relatively beginner-stage projects?"

"If Brother Zhang isn't around, constantly shuttling between Ji City would be quite cumbersome. I used to feel overwhelmed, and Brother Zhang has family and kids."

"It's too busy to manage."

Chen Song thought about it and agreed, but jokingly said: "Am I your monkey's teacher, bound by obligations?"

Lu Cheng, recalling the surgeries Professor Chen Song performed, quickly said: "Teacher Chen, you're different. You're Xiangzhou Long County's guardian angel for the health of thousands of people, working for righteousness."

"We're merely aiming for modest personal gain."

Chen Song waved irritably: "Don't flatter me, let's talk serious matters now. Have you done a background check on Dai Linfang?"

Lu Cheng nodded: "I've done some, but still don't fully understand."

Lu Cheng didn't discuss Dai Linfang's family background and connections, just said: "But Dai Linfang's personal abilities are quite outstanding."

"Of course, Xiangya System's two peculiar surgical talents in the past decade, whose personal ability isn't outstanding?"

"The other one is in neurosurgery, only twenty-nine years old, two years younger than you, studying PhD, and outperforming associate professors."

"Wait, he graduated last year, but it doesn't affect the result."

Lu Cheng paused: "Teacher Chen, what's the background of this other one?"

Chen Song was implying outperforming associate professors included him, right?

Lu Cheng didn't think all associate professors at Xiangya Hospital were mediocre.

"Started suturing at nine, participated in provincial competition at fifteen but not ranked, and the night before the college entrance exam was forced by his father to practice a few sets of incision skills before allowed to sleep, a born fool."

Lu Cheng: "..."

Zhang Tiesheng: "..."

Lu Cheng asked again: "Teacher Chen, are there such talents in the second hospital?"

"Yes, but not in surgery, it's internal medicine where there's one."

"So precious!" Chen Song suddenly said.

"These kinds of people are true geniuses. Regardless of whether they have a mentor, they can emerge victoriously."

Lu Cheng bowed his head; Chen Song's passive-aggressive tone was truly passive-aggressive.

Luckily, Chen Song says this now, rather than when they first met.

Otherwise, Lu Cheng's previous arguments wouldn't hold water.

Of course, Chen Song mostly encounters relatively ordinary talents too...

Encountered every few years, rarely seen in a decade, hardly considered as common as cabbages.
