Chapter 186 Rejecting the Invitation

Dean Lin never imagined things would turn out this way.

Don't even mention Dean Lin.

All the doctors standing behind Dean Lin were somewhat stunned at this moment.

Most of them resigned so readily after hearing from Xu Cheng that Dean Lin's hospital had become the site for the Capital Military Hospital.

But now, a representative from the headquarters has personally come forward to dispel this rumor.

What else did they hear?

Is Jiang Ning the person the headquarters specifically requested to be invited over?

Not only were these people surprised, but even Dean Kong was somewhat astonished.

What is the concept of a military hospital in a major region? It is a place that many people want to enter but have no way to get in.

When Dean Kong heard that the other party wanted Jiang Ning to go to the headquarters, he was a little nervous for a moment, but only for a moment.

Dr. Liu and Dr. Lü had invited her from the beginning, but Jiang Ning didn't agree to go to Shanxi Province. Even when he personally invited her, Jiang Ning still didn't agree. He felt that these two from the headquarters would probably leave empty-handed.

However, the resources in the main region are incomparable to those here. If Jiang Ning is willing to go, he is also willing to let people leave.

Before Dean Lin could speak, the doctor who had bumped into Jiang Ning came out and apologized.

"Director Jiang, I'm...I'm sorry."

Jiang Ning didn't accept the apology. She dislocated the other person's arm, and that was the end of it.

Jiang Ning remained silent.

Dr. Bai apologized again, this time with a more sincere attitude.

In the end, it was Dean Lin who came out and dodged the question.

It must be said that he has a very stable mindset. Now that things have come to this, he is more concerned about the location of the capital district.

This hospital might benefit from Jiang Ning's influence, as the two people who came to inspect it might take a closer look. However, his hospital has newly acquired, more advanced equipment, as well as Chen Man, his trump card.

Chen Man developed several effective drugs at the hospital. The two doctors who came to inspect the hospital last time agreed to join them after seeing Chen Man's experiments.

He believed that as long as the two of them went to the hospital and saw Chen Man, they would definitely change their minds.

Dean Lin looked at Dr. Jin and Dr. Qin and said, "Gentlemen, today's incident was just a minor episode. You two will certainly be fair and impartial in your evaluation of the hospital, right?"

Dr. Jin remained expressionless. "We don't do that kind of thing."

"In that case, I believe you two can be absolutely fair in your evaluation." Dean Lin smiled on the outside, but inwardly he was cursing.

What happened today was his miscalculation; he never expected that Jiang Ning would have some connection with the doctors in the general area.

Now, Chen Man is the only card he has left.

Dean Lin left, and the doctors who had resigned followed him away.

Many people are now filled with deep regret.

Now that things had come to this, there was no use in regretting it, so they could only awkwardly follow Dean Lin.

Xu Cheng hadn't expected things to develop this way, and he stared intently at Jiang Ning.

His eyes were full of disdain. How old was Jiang Ning? The other person was old enough to be her father, yet they protected her so much. It was clear how clever she was.

No wonder she looked down on him; it turns out he had some kind of connection with the doctors in the main district.

He actually liked this kind of woman who climbs the social ladder by clinging to higher positions; how disgusting.

Xu Cheng and the others left with Dean Lin.

After those slovenly people left, Dr. Jin and the others finally had a chance to talk to Jiang Ning properly.

Dean Kong invited the person to the dean's office.

Xu Jin, linking arms with Jiang Ning, asked with feigned curiosity, "Ningning, how did you get to know the doctor at the General Military Hospital?"

Jiang Ning told her about the earthquake relief efforts to satisfy her curiosity.

Upon hearing that Jiang Ning had performed surgery with them, she exclaimed, "So you performed surgery with them. No wonder you were so at ease when we were having surgery together. I was terrified when Grandpa Tong lost vital signs."

Upon arriving at Dean Kong's office and sitting down, Dr. Jin skipped the pleasantries and immediately looked at Jiang Ning, saying, "Dr. Jiang, what we just said about inviting you to the headquarters wasn't just talk; it was a sincere invitation for you to join our experimental group at the headquarters."

After listening to him finish speaking, Jiang Ning pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, Dr. Jin, my husband is in the Capital Military Region, and I don't want to be too far away from him."

Dean Kong couldn't help but smile; they had all seen the relationship between Dr. Jiang and her husband.

Then he heard Jiang Ning say, "Dean Kong came from Shanxi Province to serve as the hospital director in the capital for my sake. I will not let him down. Treating patients and saving lives is not about the environment. Here, I can also give full play to my abilities."

Dean Kong was taken aback.

He hadn't expected that Jiang Ning's reluctance to go to the General Military Hospital was due to this reason.

I suddenly felt a sense of relief.

Jiang Ning's gaze was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Dr. Jin and Dr. Qin sighed regretfully.

Jiang Ning suddenly remembered the end of their last sentence.

Experimental group....

Jiang Ning thought for a moment and asked, "Dr. Jin, Dr. Qin, what direction are the experiments you are conducting in the main region?"

Dr. Jin was taken aback. He thought Jiang Ning had changed her mind, so he quickly said, "It's mainly about drug research. Many drugs aren't very effective right now, and we've been working on whether we can make drugs that are more effective ourselves."

Dr. Qin also said, "We have reached a bottleneck in many research areas. I didn't expect to hear about you, Dr. Jiang, and I hope to invite you to come and do research with us using the principles of traditional Chinese medicine."

The two seemed so anxious, so they tried to persuade him with both emotion and reason.

But Jiang Ning still refused.

The headquarters wouldn't be unable to function without her. She asked this question because she was thinking about finding a good place for the pills she had developed.

Jiang Ning glanced at Dean Kong, who nodded knowingly.

Then, Jiang Ning looked at Dr. Jin and the other person.

"Dr. Jin, I have developed a pill. If you trust me, you can take it back for testing."

Dean Kong took a small porcelain bottle out of the drawer and handed it to Dr. Jin and Dr. Qin.

Dr. Jin and Dr. Qin looked puzzled until Jiang Ning explained the effects of the pills, at which point they were both shocked.

How could they not be shocked by a drug that could keep someone alive at a critical moment?

Even in the main region, no one could develop such a drug.

If such a drug could truly achieve the effects she described, it would likely be enough to shock the entire region.

However, they didn't say whether it would shock the regional headquarters, or whether the drug's efficacy could reach that level; they would need to go back and conduct further testing.

They said they would get tested, but they trusted Jiang Ning.

It would be such a waste of talent for such a person not to go back to headquarters with them!
