Chapter 559: Unfolding the Assignment!

~13 min read 2,486 words

Embroidery is either for preparing an engagement or for preparing a wedding.

Luo Tingzhu will graduate next year; Fang Ziye's plan is that after Luo Tingzhu graduates, the two will become engaged, then during her summer vacation, try to get annual leave to take wedding photos, and finally set the wedding date.

However, Fang Ziye has not yet made any preparations for this "engagement" arrangement.

"Can I see it in advance?" Fang Ziye asked.

Luo Tingzhu shook her head like a rattle drum: "Not now, later!"

Luo Tingzhu embroidered the marriage certificate herself, just for a simple sense of ceremony. She felt that if her parents could not attend, she needed more ceremony in other aspects to post on Moments.

Soon, the car arrived!

Luo Tingzhu was also holding her mobile phone, frowning slightly as she looked at the "bombing messages" on her phone!

"Senior Brother, do you think I should block him?" Luo Tingzhu asked.

"No need. Just tell him our address directly and let him come over. Also, I've asked Jie Han and Tian Luo to come eat together."

"Do you think that's okay?" Fang Ziye asked with a smile.

Luo Tingzhu nodded, bit her lip and thought for a while, then said: "Senior Brother, then I'll post it!"

"If he weren't Teacher Deng's relative, I'd really want the Senior Brothers to beat him up; he's just asking for a beating." Luo Tingzhu said somewhat fiercely.

This is clearly what happens after staying in the Orthopedics Department for over a year—his temper has been spoiled.

Or perhaps it's the nature of Yucheng girls being brought out.

……

Fang Ziye's early arrival still carried its usual pull.

Jie Han had swapped shifts temporarily, rushing over at the cost of giving someone else a full set of shifts next time, while Lan Tianluo came straight from the animal testing laboratory.

There was also a "relative of Teacher Deng," who whistled as he walked over from a distance.

Luo Tingzhu's voice was soft and sweet by his ear: "Senior Brother, the annoying person is him."

However, as soon as Luo Tingzhu finished speaking, Fang Ziye and the newly arrived Lan Tianluo both hurriedly stood up and politely called out: "Teacher Liao!"

"Teacher Liao."

Liao Jia, half-Mediterranean, with a full forehead, square chin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, was exactly the expert in animal testing that Nie Mingxian had recommended before.

Luo Tingzhu heard this and rolled her eyes several times.

She finally understood why her teacher Deng Yong would "tacitly accept" Liao Jia's "harassment"!

Liao Jia even knew Lan Tianluo; he probably targeted her because he couldn't stand "Fang Ziye"!

This Liao Jia had ulterior motives.

"Teacher Liao, why did you come?" Fang Ziye had actually heard Luo Tingzhu's words, but soon roughly understood what was going on.

Liao Jia waved his hands casually like flapping wings and said: "Nowadays, Professor Fang is no longer what he used to be; wanting to see you again is truly difficult."

"Tianluo, Jie Han." Liao Jia then politely greeted Jie Han and Lan Tianluo.

Hearing this, Fang Ziye immediately replied: "Teacher Liao, I'm really sorry; I really didn't know Brother Nie had invited you to Han City. If I had known, I would definitely have personally welcomed you."

Fang Ziye now understood that after Nie Mingxian returned to Jingdu, not only had he come back himself, but he had also lured this "big shot" of financial freedom, Liao Jia, back.

"Please sit quickly! Brother Liao." After the polite greetings, Fang Ziye changed what he called him.

Fang Ziye then quietly explained to Luo Tingzhu: "This is Professor Liao Jia, not the Senior Brother Deng Niya you mentioned before; it's a homophone insulting me! ~"

"Tingzhu, add a few more dishes."

Luo Tingzhu understood and hurriedly lowered her head to change the remark.

Fortunately, he hadn't directly blocked the other person, or had someone beat him up, otherwise...?

"Director Nie originally wanted to give you a surprise, but it turns out we all thought alike; we came for nothing, and you left us a big blank."

"It also gave us a vivid lesson."

"Aiya, so it's still better to communicate more; otherwise, a surprise would turn into a shock." Liao Jia shook his head with feeling.

"Lost a lot of money and became an unemployed vagrant."

Lan Tianluo heard this and hurriedly smiled: "Brother Liao, how much money did you lose? We'll make it up to you."

"Can you afford to make it up?" Liao Jia joked in an old-fashioned way.

"My Senior Brother should be able to!" Lan Tianluo pointed at Fang Ziye, his tone more active and proactive.

Lan Tianluo was no idiot; Liao Jia had created the mangled extremity animal testing model in just one week. Such high talent absolutely placed him at the top level of the academic world.

His aloofness was directed at ordinary people.

Isn't there a saying? The iceberg you think is cold might be coquettishly enjoying pleasure under someone else's knee.

Hearing this, Fang Ziye's eyes flashed slightly: "Professor Liao, you're not joking, are you? You're currently unemployed? Don't toy with my feelings?"

Liao Jia hadn't talked to him about it, and Nie Mingxian hadn't mentioned it either; if the other person was joking and he took it seriously, that wouldn't be good.

"Why would I lie to you?"

"After returning to Jingdu from Han City in September, I felt more and more that what I was doing was meaningless. I took a month's leave, but eventually went through resignation procedures."

"The one-month cooling-off period is also over. At the beginning of this month, I completed the resignation procedures."

"Nie Mingxian asked me to come to Han City to wander around and have fun, so I came, and I'm currently unemployed."

Saying this, Liao Jia quickly collected himself, then turned to Luo Tingzhu: "Sorry, Doctor Luo. I used some not-so-above-board methods before. If I disturbed you, I sincerely apologize."

"This bad idea was suggested by Nie Mingxian, who invited a big shot to give me advice, saying this would guarantee flushing out Fang Ziye, this fish."

"Wu Xuanqi!" Fang Ziye blurted out.

Liao Jia's expression froze, and the eyeballs in his big eyes rolled several times: "It seems Professor Fang is also very familiar with Professor Wu."

Wu Xuanqi had also been promoted to Associate Professor. Before, he was Deputy Director Physician, and if he had research accumulation, getting a professional title was a natural progression.

"Brother Qi is a wonderful person, with an unconventional style of doing things."

"I've long heard of him." Fang Ziye couldn't say anything bad about Wu Xuanqi; his consistent attitude was to keep a respectful distance.

Wu Xuanqi was still at Zhongnan Hospital, and would only leave after the Spring Festival; before that, who knew how many rotten ideas he had given Nie Mingxian and the others.

After everything was explained clearly, everyone actively skipped over this topic.

Fang Ziye then asked: "Liao Ge, what plans do you have for your next step of work?"

"I was still thinking, whether I could use some filthy lucre to buy you making a move a few more times, Liao Ge!"

Fang Ziye needed animal models for the design of individualized prostheses as well.

Before this thing could be formally applied clinically, it still needed to go through rigorous animal experiments; and Fang Ziye still had many ideas, all of which needed to go through the animal experiment stage!

"Anything interesting, speak up and let's hear!" Liao Jia asked.

Liao Jia had already earned enough money, so now he wanted to properly break into other paths.

"There are some, but the others aren't very mature yet; what I want to do recently is an individualized bone prosthesis model!"

"My plan is this: we start from the design of individualized prosthesis models for nude mice, evaluate the application of this kind of prosthesis in animal lower limb bone defects in nude animals, and after obtaining data, then conduct clinical trials."

"Liao Ge, you also know, this prosthesis is different from surgical methods; it must go through very precise Phase III clinical trials before it can be formally approved."

"As for surgical methods, if they're effective they'll be approved!" Fang Ziye said.

One is a technique, one is a device.

A technique is one-time; a device must follow the patient, and the exposure time is different.

Exposure in medicine can actually be understood simply as contact, or duration.

"This can be handled, but it's too simple."

"What else?" Liao Jia asked.

Bone defect models — just sever the nerve surgically and it's done.

Most patients' bone defects are also caused by trauma or surgery.

"Artificial Intelligence Prosthesis!"

"According to program design, collect the range of motion of lower or upper limbs, muscle twitching, reflectively understand normal human normal physiological functions based on the degree and amplitude of muscle contraction, and match them with existing prostheses." Fang Ziye spoke shocking words!

"Done!" Liao Jia, upon hearing this, felt exceptionally stimulated.

"Any more?" Liao Jia continued asking, eyes like holes.

"Precise positioning rehabilitation training assistance device, can be precise down to the muscles we want to exercise. More precise and effective than existing rehabilitation department equipment."

"Assist nerve electrical stimulation function, urge nerve activity, even nerve stretching, regrowth."

"Also..." Fang Ziye still wanted to lay out some of his own arrangements.

"Enough! Just these are enough."

"I knew it, Professor Fang, you're definitely a very interesting person."

"Where does the project funding come from?" Liao Jia asked the key question directly.

He had been in the company before; many proposals were rejected, only profitable projects were done, and not a single one of those unrelated was adopted.

The money was definitely plenty, but there was no freedom.

None were what Liao Jia was interested in.

"There are plenty; Liao Ge, you don't need to worry about this." Fang Ziye said.

"What's the upper limit?" Liao Jia's eyes brightened.

"In principle, there is no upper limit. And time and such are also relatively free." Fang Ziye replied.

Liao Jia should know where he went now; in the direction of asking questions, he was also leaning toward this direction, so Fang Ziye had no need to hide it.

"An academic's paradise ah~" Liao Jia took several deep breaths.

"How come I didn't have such good luck before? When I went to apply, it was either research assistant or operations and maintenance in the lab?" Liao Jia sighed.

Hearing this, Fang Ziye hurriedly explained: "Liao Ge, you probably like freedom too much, so even slight restraint makes you feel uncomfortable."

"But this place, from the current look, I feel is very good."

Before, Fang Ziye had been suspicious: a sanatorium that can do surgeries, how awesome is this place?

Ordinary hospitals, wanting to obtain surgical qualifications and permissions, is not easy.

Old Chinese Doctor Chen, a person who has summited in the Eastern Han TCM world, why would he insist on running such a sanatorium? There must be some "ulterior motive"!

Before, Fang Ziye feared the water was too deep, so Fang Ziye dared not make contact.

This time, Fang Ziye also had no choice.

Zhongnan Hospital, subordinate to Hubei Province's Health Commission!

An official one level higher crushes you to death; before you find direct evidence, you have no way to resist; what right do you have to make a fuss?

"After the festival, I'll come over to take a look, and also need to start working; otherwise I'll just sit and eat the mountain empty." Liao Jia found himself a reason.

Then said: "You guys chat too; we're just chatting now, any gossip goes."

Liao Jia and Nie Mingxian are the same age, thirty-four this year, five years older than Fang Ziye, but seven or eight years older than Lan Tianluo and Jie Han; the age gap is not small.

However, soon when Fang Ziye spoke to Lan Tianluo and Jie Han about the subsequent basic experiment research planning, the two only then began to speak, each expressing their own views.

Luo Tingzhu also had quite deep contact with Orthopedics projects, and after graduation worked as a postdoctoral mobile station staff member in the Orthopedics Laboratory; therefore, she also had her own ideas.

"..."

After the meal, Fang Ziye proposed to send Liao Jia back; Liao Jia refused.

"I'm going to find my friends; chatting with you guys was still slightly restrained."

"You guys go on your own! No need to mind me." Liao Jia's personality is straightforward; he directly pointed out the core point.

After all, Liao Jia is not familiar with Fang Ziye and the others, so when chatting he wasn't free, had many reservations.

Liao Jia's familiar circle is Nie Mingxian, Wu Xuanqi's generation.

Three years a generation gap.

After Liao Jia left stylishly by taxi, Fang Ziye only then took a deep breath, touched his own ear helix, pulled it and said: "Looks like the pit I left for Brother Nie last time had too great a temptation, to the extent that he also put down heavy capital ah!"

"Senior Brother, what kind of trap did you leave for Brother Nie, anyway?"

"He actually came rushing over this soon after graduating? He's already started working."

"Deng Haibo from Vascular Surgery has already announced friendship severed with Teacher Deng right in the department!" Lan Tianluo asked curiously.

Nie Mingxian was originally from Vascular Surgery, but he really came to work in Trauma Surgery; after Deng Haibo found out, he, not being the department director, still went straight to kowtow and scold Deng Yong.

Nie Mingxian's mind was made up; of course Deng Yong wouldn't admit defeat either.

"Interventional Treatment of Bone Tumors. The core cross-disciplinary area between Orthopedics Department and Vascular Surgery." Fang Ziye said.

"Hiss—" Lan Tianluo, hearing this, immediately gasped.

"No wonder. If I were Brother Nie, I estimate I wouldn't sleep well every day."

"Senior Brother, do you really have ideas?" Lan Tianluo asked first.

Fang Ziye shook his head: "Don't ask about this thing right now; this thing can't be carried out at Zhongnan Hospital — Zhongnan Hospital divides specialties too finely!"

"You don't really think I went to Enshi Yangyuan just on a whim, do you?" Fang Ziye counter-questioned.

He then listed and explained: "First, Master told me I won't be moving on professional title for the next few years."

"Second, my current ideas are slightly numerous; many would cross specialties or sub-specialties."

"I originally wasn't planning to go to the sanatorium, but that time, when Tingzhu went with me to Enshi, they said cross-specialty work was possible — that point attracted me."

"Inside Zhongnan Hospital, if I do a bit of Functional Reconstruction Surgery, I have to consider Professor Liu's feelings; if I do a bit of Joint Surgery stuff, I still have to go report to Professor Du!"

"So, I can only change environments!"
