Chapter 580: Unique Skills

"Boss, you make a valid point; I failed to notice that." Ling Tian hurriedly acknowledged his biased perspective.

"Let's set this matter aside for now; the subsequent diagnosis was also handled exceptionally well by Ji Xiang." Qin Chu viewed Ji Xiang very "objectively" and did not spare any praise for him.

Ling Tian was well aware that his boss viewed a Standardized Training Student like Ji Xiang as a standard rival, or perhaps even a lifelong nemesis.

The person who understands you best is not your friend, and not even yourself, but your enemy.

This statement is not wrong.

The boss had even set aside his airs to examine Ji Xiang with an extremely objective gaze.

"The subsequent diagnosis revealed Ji Xiang's experience. If I were to put myself in his shoes, I would either have cast a wide net, checking everything to find the diagnosis, or..."

As Ling Tian spoke, he shook his head slightly.

"Do you feel that Ji Xiang knew exactly where the Patient's problem lay from the very beginning?" Qin Chu asked.

Ling Tian nodded, "Boss, don't you find it strange? It is already considered a genius among geniuses for Ji Xiang to span both interventional and Urology Department, but he also knows Gastrointestinal, and his diagnostic skills, which require even more time to hone, are also formidable."

Qin Chu smiled slightly.

He wanted to say something, but his expression stalled, as if he had just noticed that he had forgotten there was still someone sitting beside him—Lin Jiuze.

Ever since Lin Jiuze sat at the table, he had seemed to disappear; the master and disciple had been chatting so enthusiastically that they had forgotten the existence of this outside help.

Qin Chu felt a bit awkward; he coughed twice and tried hard to turn his neck, letting his gaze fall on Lin Jiuze's face.

That face was full of an innocent, harmless smile, ordinary and plain.

"Jiuze, what do you think?" Qin Chu's smile reappeared on his face as he looked at Lin Jiuze.

However, when his gaze fell upon the small toy in Lin Jiuze's hands, he was suddenly stunned.

Lin Jiuze seemed bored; his right hand held a Western-style knife, the fork was placed by his side, and his left hand...

... was cradling an apple from the fruit platter.

Today's apple had not been peeled or sliced, yet Lin Jiuze was using the knife to carve the apple into the shape of a teapot.

Facing Lin Jiuze's side, he had even carved the words "Maintain a calm mind in the face of great events" in large seal script.

The teapot was vivid and lifelike; if not for the color being wrong, Qin Chu would have suspected it was the purple clay pot that Lin Jiuze's father had been polishing for who knows how many years.

"Qin," Lin Jiuze smiled slightly, his expression honest and harmless.

His form of address for Qin carried a sense of distance, but Qin did not mind; he also knew he had no reason to mind.

"Jiuze, your hands are quite skillful," Qin praised.

"Oh, it's just a necessary skill for us Surgeons and interventional Doctors; a mere trifle, a mere trifle," Lin Jiuze laughed. "I think Doctor Ji Xiang has the level, but that's about it."

"..." Ling Tian was stunned.

What a thing to say.

He still remembered when Ji Xiang came to visit Shanghai Hepatobiliary Hospital, he had made the same judgment, but in the end, reality gave him a resounding slap in the face.

Ling Tian hesitated for a moment.

He wanted to advise this junior brother who looked harmless but was actually arrogant.

One must take Ji Xiang seriously; no matter how much one takes him seriously, it is appropriate.

But for a moment, Ling Tian did not know where to begin.

His boss was still sitting right here; if he spoke too bluntly, it was hard to say whether the boss would be displeased.

But if he said nothing and Lin Jiuze went up and got his head bashed in, wouldn't that be throwing his life away for nothing?

You don't just feed experience to Ji Xiang like that!

To take down Ji Xiang, one must adopt the posture of a lion pouncing on a rabbit, finishing it in one go.

"Jiuze, you cannot be careless."

Before Ling Tian could speak, Qin Chu said it first.

"Ji Xiang looks young and has no overseas background, but his surgical ability is very strong. I have observed every surgery of Ji Xiang's that I could observe; in terms of level, he is better than..."

As Qin Chu was speaking, he suddenly stopped, his eyes widening as he stared blankly at Lin Jiuze.

Lin Jiuze put the table knife to his mouth, licked the apple puree off with his tongue, bit the knife, and opened the "purple clay pot" right in front of Qin Chu.

Ling Tian's eyeballs nearly fell to the floor.

That was an apple!

An apple from the fruit platter that had been served just a few minutes ago, the kind that looked unappetizing at a glance.

But!

In just these few minutes, Lin Jiuze had actually finished carving the lid of the "purple clay pot," and it could even be removed smoothly.

Was he a monster?

Was he a monster!

"Qin, drink some water to cool off," Lin Jiuze said with his signature innocent, harmless smile, picking up a transparent water pitcher filled with cucumber slices and daylilies.

Qin Chu blankly pushed his cup forward.

But the next second, he froze again.

It wasn't just Qin Chu; Ling Tian, who was just about to reach out to take the transparent glass pitcher, stood frozen like a puppet.

Lin Jiuze...

He was actually pouring warm water into the "purple clay pot" carved from an apple.

Lin Jiuze was like a magician; the water was actually poured into the apple-made purple clay pot without a single drop leaking.

Qin Chu and Ling Tian watched blankly, their eyes fixed; Ling Tian tried hard to recall what he and his boss had just been saying and how much time had passed.

At most, in 3 minutes, Lin Jiuze had carved a vivid and lifelike "purple clay pot"!

How skillful must these hands be!!

The sound of water pouring into the pot reached them; everything was so real.

"Qin, my teacher has already started focusing on health preservation; don't take things to heart. The matters of the younger generation will naturally be resolved by us, the younger generation," Lin Jiuze said, speaking in a strange way.

Qin Chu did not realize what Lin Jiuze meant by these words; his attention was entirely focused on the "purple clay teapot."

Listening to the sound, the water had already been poured full.

"Qin, leave the matters over there to me." Lin Jiuze stood up, holding the "purple clay teapot" as he stood beside Qin Chu.

Ling Tian was stunned; he had an inconceivable thought in his mind—could it be that water could actually be poured out?!

Carving an apple into a purple clay teapot in just a few minutes, with seal script written on the outside, was already incredible. Lin Jiuze had not only done that, but he had also hollowed out the inside of the pot, and not only had he hollowed it out, he could even pour water out of it.

Incredible ×3!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~

The water in the "purple clay teapot" poured smoothly into the cup in front of Qin Chu, carrying the fragrance of an apple.

"Qin, you handle the matters regarding the program. My time is limited; I can only stay here for half a month. But... it will be enough." Lin Jiuze smiled honestly, "Rest assured, these are all small matters."

Qin Chu subconsciously picked up the cup.

He felt as if there was no one beside him; the water had appeared in the cup inexplicably.

He took a sip; it had a strong apple flavor.

The taste was very strange; Qin Chu had never tasted it before, but the water seemed to carry magic, stimulating Qin Chu's Kidney, secreting a large amount of Epinephrine.

In an instant, Qin Chu's blood rushed to his head.

"Good!" Qin Chu slapped the table, his eyes fixed on... Ling Tian, as if all of this had been done by Ling Tian.
