Chapter 307: A Golden Phoenix Flying Out of a Chicken Coop

One day later.

Although Zhao Zhe had already decided to give up, he still harbored fantasies, wanting to force a try.

What if, anyway, he was idle anyway.

He held onto the slim hope and went to beg the Department Head again.

But what awaited him was a cold face.

Whether it was the Urology Department Head or the staff and Department Heads of the administrative office, they kicked the ball to each other, and a simple matter turned into a tacit obstruction.

"Lao Zhao, you really are dreaming of a pheasant flying onto a tree branch to become a phoenix."

"A few years ago, the Department Head almost kicked you to the Emergency Department; do you not know, or are you pretending not to know? It would be strange if he let you go."

"Stop tossing about, come back and take your shifts. With you gone, the 4-day rotation becomes 3 days; it's so tiring."

The doctors in the department saw Zhao Zhe walking out of the Department Head's office dejectedly once again and spoke up one after another.

Zhao Zhe lowered his head, speechless.

"Lao Zhao." Someone came up and patted him on the shoulder, "Listen to me, stop tossing about. You're as poor as a dog, why bother? Just work honestly and earn some money; isn't that better than anything?"

"The Second Affiliated Hospital is indeed a good place, and I don't know what noble person you met, but is that a dream you can have? Stop thinking about it, the Department Head definitely won't let you go."

"We are far from the center of power here; even if you know some noble person, their hand can't reach Liaoyuan. Not to mention this is a matter of the medical system; if someone is willing to help you find a job at the Second Affiliated Hospital, can they also help you from start to finish?"

You don't even have the ability to transfer yourself, so don't blame heaven and others. Let me tell you, don't make this matter too ugly, so you don't have to worry about meeting in the future."

As he spoke, another doctor poked his head out, saw no one outside, and closed the door of the Doctor's Office.

"Lao Zhao, yesterday the Department Head said right in front of us that you dreaming of leaving is just a dream. If you can actually leave, the Department Head said he would kneel at the highway entrance to see you off."

"The Department Head is about to be promoted to Vice President; he's familiar with all the connections, so isn't suppressing you as easy as play? Can you do it without transfer procedures? It's not that he won't process them for you, but just kicking the ball around can take several years."

"Yeah, how old will you be in a few years? I'm afraid the person handling things for you at the Second Affiliated Hospital won't be able to wait that long."

Listening to the "consolation" of his colleagues, dark clouds gathered above Zhao Zhe's head, lightning struck, and a torrential rain poured down.

He had already cried; now he had no tears left, his eyes looked at the ground hollowly, and his mind was a blank slate.

"Listen to me, go and soften your stance with the Department Head, and come back to take your shifts."

"You won't get any good results if you keep holding out like this. Let's not say anything else, if you come back later and run to the administrative office and find the Department Head every day, you definitely won't be able to get it done. Besides, your performance-based pay will be gone; you'll only get your basic salary every month? 3500 a month, won't you be poor to death?"

"Don't be so stubborn, it's meaningless, Lao Zhao."

Everyone advised him one after another, not knowing what their mindset was.

"Sigh." Zhao Zhe sighed deeply, "Alright."

After knowing that the matter was impossible, Zhao Zhe made one last attempt; he confirmed that he couldn't do it and had to admit defeat.

"Knock, knock, knock~"

The sound of knocking rang out.

Then the door of the Doctor's Office was pushed open.

"Dean Zou!" Several doctors, who were originally sitting lazily in their chairs mocking Zhao Zhe, showed Agility +9 after seeing the person who walked in and jumped up.

"Where is your Department Head?"

Dean Zou asked with a frown.

Zhao Zhe didn't pay attention to Dean Zou, but saw the familiar figure behind him—Ji Xiang.

How did Ji Xiang come with Dean Zou?

Zhao Zhe was very confused; because the impact was huge, his brain crashed without hesitation. His mind was a blank slate, so much so that he didn't even say a greeting.

"Little Zhao." Dean Zou suddenly changed his face and walked to Zhao Zhe with a smile.

Seeing Zhao Zhe's blank expression and that he didn't take the initiative to greet him, he didn't mind, laughed, and reached out to grab Zhao Zhe's hand.

"Our hospital has finally cultivated a talent."

"!!!"

"!!!"

"!!!"

The doctors in the Urology Department were all stunned.

Could Dean Zou not know that the Department Head was in his own office? He came directly to the doctor's office, saying he was looking for the Department Head, but actually, it was to find Zhao Zhe first.

This thought flashed by, and those with quick minds all shivered.

Seeing Dean Zou's attitude toward Zhao Zhe made them have an even "worse" thought.

"Not bad, not bad, a golden phoenix has finally flown out of our chicken coop." Dean Zou held Zhao Zhe's hand, as if shaking hands, and as if intentionally trying to be close.

"After you go to the Second Affiliated Hospital, remember to come home and visit often. Our Central Hospital is the place where you grew up; when the time comes, please come back to perform surgeries, and don't decline, you big professor."

Zhao Zhe was completely bewildered; he never thought that the great Dean would speak such intimate words to him like an old friend.

This matter was so abrupt that Zhao Zhe, a chatterbox, couldn't even say a word, foolishly letting Dean Zou shake his hand up and down, while he didn't know what to say.

"Hurry up and handle the procedures; you still have big things to do at the Second Affiliated Hospital." Dean Zou wasn't picky about the foolish Zhao Zhe, nor did he find fault with his attitude, and led Zhao Zhe out of the Doctor's Office.

Watching the backs of the few disappear, one doctor muttered, "It's like seeing a ghost."

"How come Dean Zou is speaking so politely!"

"Lao Zhao is awesome; who did he find that could move Dean Zou?"

Dean Zou arrived at the door of the Department Head's office, only then did he let go of Zhao Zhe's hand, turned back to smile apologetically at Ji Xiang, and pushed the door open to enter.

"Department Head Xu." Dean Zou walked in with big strides.

"Dean, why are you here?" The Urology Department Head saw Zhao Zhe behind Dean Zou, felt annoyed, frowned, and scolded, "Zhao Zhe, that's too much, how can you still trouble Dean Zou because of your own trivial matters!"

"I... I..." Zhao Zhe's mind was a blank slate.

"Dean Zou, did Zhao Zhe go to you to cry, make a scene, and hang himself? He is just a toad; it's disgusting to have him land on your foot." The Urology Department Head hurriedly apologized with a smile, "It was my poor handling of the matter that added trouble to you."

"What are you saying." Dean Zou gave Department Head Xu a wink and said, pretending to be unhappy, "Little Zhao is a talent, we must support him."

"A talent... he's just an Attending Physician... Dean, rest assured, I will absolutely not let this son of a bitch Zhao Zhe bother you again," the Urology Department Director said viciously, "Zhao Zhe, did you hear that? If you still want to work here, behave yourself, otherwise pack your bags and get lost!"

"Director Xu..."

"Dean, you can't give a toad like him any face," the Urology Department Director hurriedly explained.

After speaking, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Zhe by the collar, "You better behave yourself for me!"

"Slap~"

Suddenly, Dean Zou landed a slap on the Urology Department Director's face.
