At this moment, in the emergency room office, there were over a dozen luxury fruit baskets on the table!
Each basket was filled with various expensive fruits.
There were mangosteens, grapes, snake fruits, durians, jackfruits, and cherries the size of a human fist…
They covered the tables of the emergency room office!
It was time for the midday shift to end, but a crowd of people didn’t leave; instead, they gathered around the table, dividing the spoils.
Tian Xianglan sighed, “All… this is the first time I’ve been able to eat so much expensive fruit in the emergency room office!”
Chang Lina nodded, “Right, I’d never have the heart to buy durian, all this is pure fruit, must weigh a few kilos, right? That’s a lot of money!”
Qin Yue peeled a mangosteen and took a bite, “Not bad, who would’ve thought we could get lucky following Chen Cang.”
A group of people chattered non-stop, saying a place with many women is never lonely.
But-
Wang Qian was as calm as still water, writing up medical cases, not saying a word.
Qin Yue suddenly asked with a smile, “Qian’er, aren’t you going to eat some fruit? Don’t you usually love them the most?”
Old Chen also smiled and nodded, “Exactly, Xiao Wang, we can’t finish them all, take some back for your wife!”
Wang Qian shook his head and smiled, “No need, let everyone eat, my stomach isn’t feeling well today.”
Shi Na too smiled, “The fruit baskets in the emergency room really aren’t many, unlike those in surgery or gynecology departments… all fruits, come on? Chief An, have some fruit.”
An Yanjun shook his head, “No thanks, I feel cold in my stomach, I’m going to eat something warm.”
[Ding! Chain Task—Accepting Tiger Autumn’s request, gain: Tiger Autumn’s favorability +10. Please continue to explore subsequent tasks. Hint: Find the key NPC.]
Chen Cang shook his head, key NPC?
Who could it be?
Sitting in his Land Rover Range Rover, Chen Cang asked, “So what’s the matter exactly?”
Zhao Huqiu wore an ingratiating smile, “Doctor Chen, this time I truly need your help. My boss’s lady cut her leg today and needs stitches. My boss used his connections to find many surgeons, but they couldn’t guarantee a nice sewing job. We sought experts from inside and outside the province, but none could give any guarantees.”
“Then I thought of you. I believe your skills are definitely up to the task! I saw the stitches you put on Zhang Dalong, so beautiful! I feel that if you take care of it, there would absolutely be no problem.”
Chen Cang shook his head, “I can’t guarantee that I will do a good job of it, medicine involves risks and uncertainties, nobody can give guarantees for anything! I will go and have a look before deciding.”
Zhao Huqiu nodded, “Of course, of course, you’re definitely capable!”
“I showed those experts how you stitched up Zhang Dalong, after they saw it, they all said it was impossible, too perfect! Haha… I just knew that you could do it!”
Chen Cang sighed and said nothing more.
But he had already decided he would not operate unless he was 100% certain he could do it. Otherwise, if anything went wrong, he would not be able to bear the responsibility.
Though the chain tasks were tempting, Chen Cang preferred the stability of his professional career.
Having just obtained the system, he should be playing it safe, not getting too close to these “big shots.”
If something happened, no one would come to his rescue.
Not to mention Zhao Huqiu’s boss, Chen Cang could not afford to offend even Zhao Huqiu himself.
This Range Rover must cost over two million, right?
And there were several cars following, not as expensive, but not cheap either.
The Anyang downtown area isn’t large, yet it took the car over half an hour to reach its destination.
Here lies the Forest Park, next to which a developer has built a villa district, and there’s also the only international standard golf course in Dongyang Province.
Chen Cang had been to the Forest Park before and had even jumped into the golf course to collect a few golf balls.
No wonder they say golf is a sport for the rich—many balls are hit out and never picked up.
Zhao Huqiu went to register, and only after a call from inside were they allowed to drive in; his subordinates could only wait at the gate.
It must be said, a villa district really is a villa district; the landscaping, sanitation, and other infrastructure inside are so good it makes one reluctant to drop even a scrap of paper.
Under the trees, there are many rabbit burrows, with little rabbits often scurrying out to frolic, amid other small creatures.
Chen Cang was astonished.
Is this the world of the rich?
A zoo right in their neighborhood?
A huge man-made lake lay before them, with some motorboats docked on it, and according to the signs, there seemed to be a fishing area further ahead. Zhao Huqiu smiled and said, “Exaggerated, huh?”
Chen Cang nodded silently.
” When I first came here, I was also stunned! These rich people really are rich!”
The two arrived at a three-story villa and were met by a nanny who led them upstairs.
Upon entering, Chen Cang saw a man in his fifties sitting in the living room, surrounded by several individuals, most of whom were wearing white lab coats.
The group was discussing:
“It’s unreasonable, this kind of suturing method can indeed effectively reduce scarring, but it’s not beneficial for the existing tattoo repair.”
“The angle and details of this flower must maintain consistency with the skin texture during suturing, which requires us to consider the scars—using instruments later to restore skin might yield better results.”
Regardless of the ongoing discussion, the square-faced man in his fifties was quietly sipping tea, lost in thought.
As Chen Cang wasn’t a specialist in medical aesthetics, he naturally didn’t understand the specifics of skin repair very well, but from what he could tell, these people were indeed highly professional.
Chen Gang’s arrival didn’t draw much attention; he was merely given an extra glance.
Zhao Huqiu approached the man and respectfully said, “Boss, this is the expert I mentioned to you. Doctor Chen!”
The man merely uttered an “Oh,” nodding slightly, and then looked up to ask, “Is he the one who did the suturing for your friend?”
Zhao Huqiu nodded: “I think we should give it a try. After all, I saw Zhang Dalong’s arm yesterday, it’s healing very well. I personally made the cut with a beer bottle, and now it’s recovered nicely and looks even better.”
The middle-aged man frowned slightly: “How old is he?”
Zhao Huqiu shook his head: “Boss, you were already a multimillionaire at 30. You can’t judge people by their appearance. Age doesn’t define ambition. Why not let him take a look at the wound first? See what he has to say?”
After a moment’s contemplation, the middle-aged man said to Zhao Huqiu, “Call him over, I want to ask him a few questions.”
Zhao Huqiu nodded and walked over to Chen Cang: “Dr. Chen, my boss would like to ask you a few questions.”
Chen Cang nodded and stepped forward, saying without any timidity, “Hello.”
Chen Cang felt no fear or hesitation; he thought, I have nothing to ask of you, so why should I be afraid of you?
The middle-aged man nodded: “Hello, I am Zheng Guotan.”
Chen Cang knew the name but hadn’t seen the face before.
The largest property tycoon in Anyang city.
This was the man who had driven up housing prices in Dongyang Province. With this thought, Chen Cang suddenly wanted to turn around and leave, if not for that giant green question mark hovering above Zheng Guotan’s head…
