Chapter 178 Hospital Merger?
Dean Lin: "......"
The meaning behind the other party returning the gift is self-evident.
“The headquarters can’t send any more comrades over. It will still be just the two of us who need to conduct the inspection.” The two observed Dean Kong’s expression and, seeing that he still didn’t budge, said in a harsh tone, “The doctors in the headquarters are all busy and don’t have time to personally inspect the site selection in the capital. You need to think this through. If we leave, your hospital will have even less of a chance.”
"We've already taken the gift. If you still want to write a complaint letter, go ahead."
The other party's tone and attitude were not very good.
What was originally just a normal exchange of favors turned into this mess, leaving everyone in a bad mood.
Dean Kong could tell at a glance that the other party's attitude was bad.
He was conflicted.
He had always been upright and honest, and it wasn't that no one had ever given him gifts before, but he had never accepted them. He was inexperienced in dealing with this kind of situation.
Now that he's offended someone, even if he invites them to the hospital for a check-up, they probably won't be sincere.
Why bother with all that?
Dean Lin was initially quite worried, but after hearing their conversation, he suddenly felt less worried.
The other party's dissatisfaction was quite obvious, but Director Kong of the People's Hospital showed no flexibility whatsoever.
Dean Kong turned and left without hesitation, leaving Dr. Jiang to pave his own way!
The two doctors didn't stay long. Seeing the train arrive, they said goodbye to Dean Lin and left.
Dean Kong returned to the hospital, unaware that someone had been following him.
He was stopped by someone as he walked into the hospital lobby.
Dean Kong turned around and saw the dean who was giving gifts to the doctors representing the General Military Hospital. He frowned.
Unexpectedly, the other person followed him back to the hospital.
Dean Lin surveyed the scale of the hospital.
Dean Kong frowned; he didn't like associating with people like that.
He ignored the other person and turned to walk towards his office.
Dean Lin, however, followed up with a smile and said, "Dean Kong, I see that your hospital is quite large. Have you ever thought about becoming a branch of our hospital? That way, when our hospital becomes a hospital of the Capital Military Region, your hospital can also benefit from it."
Xu Jin has been going to the urologist frequently lately. When she came downstairs from the urology department, she immediately saw Shen Pianran and Chen Man, as well as the short-sighted director of her previous hospital!
Xu Jin followed without saying a word.
She didn't listen until she got to the dean's office and everyone had gone inside, then she pressed her ear against the door to listen for any sounds.
As she listened, her expression darkened. That short-sighted Dean Lin actually wanted to merge their hospital, and even shamelessly bribed the representative doctor from the General Military Hospital.
Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Dean Kong had refused the hospital merger, but judging from Dean Lin's tone, he was determined to make his hospital a military hospital in the capital.
Xu Jin was furious.
She immediately ran to Jiang Ning to complain.
Jiang Ning is examining Grandpa He's legs. Grandpa He is now able to walk without crutches.
However, it was still He Tingdong who brought Grandpa He here. He Tingdong was extremely grateful that his father had listened to Jiang Ning and hadn't jumped onto the horse as soon as he was able to walk on his own.
Upon learning that Jiang Ning had arrived at this hospital, Grandpa He immediately came over to have Jiang Ning give him a check-up and also to ask when he could run a couple of laps on a horse.
Xu Jin rushed to Jiang Ning's clinic.
Seeing that she was panting heavily from running, Jiang Ning handed her an enamel cup so she could catch her breath before speaking.
Xu Jin gulped down a big mouthful and then put it on the table.
"Grandpa He." She greeted Grandpa He politely first.
After greeting them, she couldn't help but complain to Jiang Ning, "Ningning, Dean Lin brought Chen Man and Shen Pianran to our hospital. That short-sighted Dean Lin actually wants to take over our hospital! Luckily, our dean didn't agree, or I would have been furious!"
Jiang Ning glanced at her and laughed, "I didn't agree, so why are you still angry?"
Xu Jin curled her lips. "I overheard that Dean Lin actually gave gifts to the representative doctors from the General Military Hospital who came to inspect the site! Judging from what Dean Lin said, their hospital has already been selected as the site for the Capital Military Hospital."
Hearing this, Grandpa He, who had been concerned about his leg, suddenly looked up at Xu Jin and asked, "Xu girl, are you telling the truth?"
Xu Jin nodded and said, "Grandpa He, it's true."
She didn't really care which hospital in the capital became the site of the Capital Military Hospital; she was just disgusted by Director Lin's act of giving gifts.
A glint of light flashed in Old Master He's eyes. He suddenly looked up and met the gaze of He Tingdong, who was standing to the side.
Xu Jin was just complaining. Actually, when she saw Grandpa He, she had a slight thought in her mind. If Grandpa He had stepped in, the location of the Capital Military Hospital might still be worth fighting for.
But what kind of person is Old Master He? He earned his military merits through his own hard work throughout his life.
The He family, the Xu family, and the Shen family.
They are all families of meritorious officials; the old men all fought their way to where they are today with just a gun, so they are especially strict with the children under them.
He never uses his power or connections to oppress others.
They never interfere with how far their own younger generation can go.
She is, Uncle He is, and Shen Mo is too.
Previously, because Jiang Ning needed to treat Grandpa He, Grandpa He used his connections to make it more convenient for him, allowing Jiang Ning to temporarily become a nominal doctor there. Now that Grandpa He's leg has healed, there shouldn't be any more exceptions.
Xu Jin kept these thoughts to herself.
She just came here to vent, and now that she's vented, she feels much better.
Xu Jin had other matters to attend to, so she said goodbye to Grandpa He and the others before leaving.
Jiang Ning was engrossed in administering acupuncture to Old Master He's leg when Old Master He suddenly asked, "Why did the young miracle doctor suddenly come to work at this hospital?"
He left after his treatment, and everyone assumed that Jiang Ning had stayed at the hospital where he had been treated.
Although the other party only gave him the title of nominal doctor, he believed that with Jiang Ning's abilities, becoming a formal doctor would not be a problem.
Now that Xu Jin has said this, perhaps the fact that Dean Lin's hospital was chosen as the site for the Capital Military Hospital is related to his influence.
Old Master He felt a little guilty, but he dared not say anything.
