Chapter 123: Young Miss Xin Might Take a Fancy to Me
After finishing their meal in the Office, the three rested for a moment.
Zhai Lin took a sip of tea. "This afternoon I have to go to the Surgery Room. You two performed well this morning. Go to the Demonstration Classroom to familiarize yourselves further. We have an exam tomorrow; those who perform well can serve as Assistants on the Surgery Table."
"Operation videos are also available in the Demonstration Classroom; watch them carefully."
Wang Chuan nodded. Indeed, this place was no comparison to the Emergency Department. Activating the Peak Medical Skill Experience again, an internship in the Obstetrics Department for two weeks was basically impossible. He still needed to find a way to intern more times in the Emergency Department.
He raised his brows and glanced at Pei Nanli. Her mother had spoken to Yang Guohua last time, and he had taken a day off. If he asked Ning Hui for help, would Yang Guohua show face? First release of this book: Read novels at Tiantian Kan Xiaoshuo, ttkts. tw. Super worry-free, providing you with error-free chapters and non-misordered chapter reading experiences.
In the afternoon, Wang Chuan and a group of Interns familiar with the instruments all ran to the Training Lecture Hall on the eleventh floor to watch videos of common Obstetrics Department surgical operations.
Everyone, preparing for the impromptu exam tomorrow, watched the videos and then watched them repeatedly.
Wang Chuan, after watching once, stood up and left. He had already improved through Virtual Operation Training; the Medication Change Technique, Incision, Exposure and Separation, Suturing, Hemostasis, Knot Tying, Drainage, and Puncture had all reached an advanced level.
Glancing at the time, it was only two in the afternoon. He thought of Li Wei and the others, and that Pei Nanli was taking Subject One tomorrow. Once they passed, his own driving lessons would have to restart, requiring him to get up early every morning.
If he had to work the morning shift, he would have to rush back by seven-thirty.
Just as he reached the first floor, his Mobile Phone rang. "Wang Chuan, what exactly happened to my younger brother?"
Wang Chuan received Shen Mianshuang's call and went to the rental room on the second floor, room 201, of Building Seven in River Right Community. He told her about the possibility of her younger brother gambling again.
He comforted her: "Don't worry. I'll ask someone to inquire; there should be news today."
Shen Mianshuang's pretty face showed anxiety. She took out her Mobile Phone. "This person should have a way?"
"He said he has extensive connections in Mingzhou and definitely has a way."
Wang Chuan asked a question: "Who? Your friend?"
Shen Mianshuang did not look up, searching through her Mobile Phone contacts. "A blind date from before!" She found it. "Tang Fei!"
This name made Wang Chuan greatly surprised. He asked: "Tang Fei, the General Manager of Tang's HVAC Company?"
"Wang Chuan, do you know this person too?"
"Oh, I know him because of the Bar incident, but we aren't close," Wang Chuan explained.
A thought surfaced in his mind: In his past life, wouldn't it have been that Tang Fei helped find her brother, with the exchange condition being that Shen Mianshuang resigns and marries him?
"I can't get through!" Shen Mianshuang shook her Mobile Phone.
Wang Chuan knew Tang Fei and his father were currently in Europe. "Doctor Shen, are you very close with Tang Fei?"
"After the blind date, we ate a meal once, and we haven't seen each other since."
"Then you aren't close; maybe he changed his Mobile Phone number long ago." Wang Chuan curiously asked another question: "Why did you have that one meal together, but there was no follow-up afterward?"
Shen Mianshuang thought that being disliked by so many people for her family background, telling Wang Chuan wouldn't matter.
It turned out Tang Fei proposed giving some money to Shen Mianshuang's family, but after marriage, Shen Mianshuang was not allowed to have any contact with her family again.
"He said, 'I marry you, I am only responsible to you, not to marry your mother, your father, or your brother.'"
After hearing Tang Fei's words, Wang Chuan said, "A specious reason. Doctor Shen, if your parents were high-ranking officials or great tycoons, Tang Fei definitely wouldn't have said that."
"And he also said he wouldn't register the marriage with me!"
Tang Fei's words just now were not too outrageous, from a businessman's perspective.
Not registering the marriage, isn't that just keeping a mistress? Tang Fei really knows how to play, doesn't he?!
"Doctor Shen, he wants to keep you as a mistress, to make you his second wife."
Wang Chuan watched as Shen Mianshuang's eyes changed from innocence to surprise, carrying a hint of anger.
"No, are all people who run companies so bad?"
To change her destiny, Shen Mianshuang had devoted herself entirely to studying since childhood and was not very familiar with social customs and human relations.
This also allowed her to focus single-mindedly on passing the entrance exam for Jiangcheng University School of Medicine, smoothly becoming a Doctor, with a future that was not bleak.
"Uh, Doctor Shen, I recently opened a company too; I shouldn't be so bad!"
Shen Mianshuang's beautiful eyes widened. "Wang Chuan, you opened a company too?! Sorry, my apologies."
"It's fine!"
Shen Mianshuang continued explaining: "What I just reflected on was remembering my father said a long time ago that Shen Dafu from our Village, after becoming a big Boss, kept more than ten women. He bought an entire building in a Community, one apartment for each; whoever bore a boy would get a heavy reward!"
Wang Chuan's face showed not a trace of surprise. He had seen many entrepreneurs in his past life and had indeed encountered bosses like the one Shen Mianshuang described.
There were also those who set up companies with labor contracts for these women, distributing the mistress-keeping fees as wages. Since wages are company expenses, this naturally reduces the taxable income, lowering the corporate income tax.
On the surface, it looked legal, compliant, and even moral.
"Oh, Doctor Shen, I'm going to find my friend now to ask about the situation. Also, that Tang Fei, you should block him. This person has bad character."
Shen Mianshuang stood up, took out a bag and a photo, and gave them to Wang Chuan. "Today is the day I mail medicine to my mother. Wang Chuan, I have to trouble you to help me mail it via EMS. There is also a letter inside the bag."
"No problem, I'll go help you right now."
Wang Chuan saw that the photo was a bright, smiling group shot of Shen Mianshuang and Shen Xiaobing at Mingzhou First Hospital.
"Before, my younger brother was very good. Every month he mailed letters back to my mother, telling her he was living well in Mingzhou. It was just that my father came once, took him gambling, and he changed."
Wang Chuan sighed helplessly and could only silently pray in his heart that Shen Mianshuang's father would have a change of conscience.
However, it was more likely that one day her father would be hacked to death over gambling debts; at that time, Shen Mianshuang would probably be implicated.
After Wang Chuan finished mailing, he received a call from Cao Te. "Boss Wang, we have inquired in three of the other four Districts!"
"Which District hasn't been inquired about yet?"
"Dongxin District hasn't been. However, I found someone who said he knows; I need to treat him to a meal and give him a red envelope."
"No problem. I'm coming over now; send me the restaurant address."
When Wang Chuan arrived at the Western Restaurant in the Mall in Dongxin District and saw the person beside Cao Te, he asked, "Are you that Security Guard Xiao Sha?"
That Security Guard Xiao Sha was stunned, realizing that the person inquiring about gambling football places in Dongxin District was actually the Young Miss's friend.
Cao Te said in surprise: "Boss Wang, you know him? A friend of mine introduced him."
"He is a Security Guard at Yuan Province Headquarters; we have met once before."
Wang Chuan sized up the stunned, silent Xiao Sha, whose lips held a smile.
He thought to himself that this was yet another young man hoping to gamble his way to overnight riches; what a pity, since he looked so refined and handsome.
"It's even better if you know each other. Waiter, bring the food immediately. Xiao Sha, finish eating quickly and tell us right away."
Cao Te waved his hand in front of Xiao Sha, who was lost in a daze.
Xiao Sha snapped out of it; when the steak arrived at the table, he was at a loss, not knowing how to use the knife and fork.
He had specified a Western restaurant because he believed that by entering such a high-end establishment and breathing in its air, one's social standing would automatically rise.
He never expected to have the chance to come in and eat steak today.
Wang Chuan sighed. "Xiao Sha, let me teach you how to eat steak! Next time, you'll know how!"
A smile spread across Xiao Sha's face. "Thank you, President Wang!"
In his heart, he thought, So you're 'President Wang,' huh? Just because you're handsome doesn't make you superior. You degenerate gambler; I'll find a chance to tell Miss Xin that her friend is a gambling addict.
Miss Xin will surely give me a raise.
Miss Xin might even take a liking to me; from then on, I won't just change my fate—I'll reach the peak of life.
