When the Doctor Uses A Hack - Chapter 200: Wang Qian Plays Matchmaker (Extra 1/3 for Alliance Hierarch Moonlight Exposed the Human Heart)

In the rush of the morning, I hurriedly signed the form and handed it over to the graduate studies department.

Guan Wei suddenly said, “Xiao Chen, today Principal Qian was asking about you.”

Chen Cang was startled, “Principal Qian? Who is that? Why would he ask about me?”

Guan Wei shook his head, “Oh! It’s Qian Liang, the Vice-Chancellor for Clinical Sciences at our university, and the Executive Vice-Dean of Dongda First Hospital. He inquired about you today.”

Qian Liang, huh!

Chen Cang then realized it was indeed Qian Liang.

“I know Teacher Qian, I’ve interacted with him. He’s been quite good to me,” Chen Cang said.

Guan Wei laughed, “Hehe! No wonder, he was asking about you, then told me to look after you, to contact him if there’s anything, and even asked who you’ve chosen as a mentor…”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang gave an awkward smile.

In fact, choosing Qian Liang was actually a good option, but he had an apprenticeship task with Qian Liang that was bound to happen sooner or later. These days, Chen Cang planned to take some time to analyze the data for laparoscopic appendectomy and try to write and submit a paper.

He originally thought apprenticing with Meng Xi would be a loss, but it turned out to be a huge gain!

Let’s not talk about the rest; at the very least, not needing as many skill points was a huge blessing for Chen Cang.

Moreover, the most awesome part of a hidden profession was getting a purple skill right off the bat, which was the coolest.

Now, what Chen Cang cared about the most was how to increase favorability with Teacher Meng? The cheapest level-one skill alone required 10 points of favorability and needed 20 points to exchange, which was quite troublesome…

Thinking about this, Chen Cang couldn’t help but worry more.

It looks like when he returns to the hospital, he should consult with Qin Yue on how to be a gracefully fawning little ‘lick-dog’.

School starts the day after tomorrow, so it looks like I really can’t focus on work these next few days. I should ask for some time off from the director when I get back.

After all, I might be able to skip later, but when the new term starts, Chen Cang still needs to go.

Checking the time and seeing it was already past eleven, Chen Cang decided not to go to the hospital. He passed by a vegetable stall, bought some groceries, and went home to cook himself a nice meal as a treat.

Chen Cang’s cooking skills were a family tradition.

The Chen Family ancestors were chefs, and his father is now a renowned cook in the region. For any wedding or banquet, they would invite Chen Dahai to be the head chef. Although he didn’t earn much, he was highly respected.

Chen Cang practicing surgery did not disgrace the ancestral chef’s knife of the Chen Family.

After all, Chen Cang’s daily job also involved cutting meat.

He bought a pound of beef plus some potatoes and other ingredients. He made a pot of beef stew when he got home—simple yet savagely delicious and aromatic.

On his way to the hospital in the afternoon, Chen Cang happened to run into Wang Qian.

“Qian’er bro!”

Wang Qian saw Chen Cang and smiled as he jogged over, “Ah, I’m stuffed to death.”

Chen Cang smiled, “Qian bro, you seem to have good dining, did you eat at Tian Street?”

Wang Qian curled his lip, “Fancy food. A old classmate’s child was having a full moon celebration, and they threw a banquet. I spent 500 bucks, so I figured I had to eat my fill.”

Chen Cang burst out laughing, “Sister-in-law is also pregnant, right? You’ll break even soon!”

Wang Qian chuckled and said, “Yeah! But you know, Chen, it’s really a pity that you missed my wedding. There were so many pretty bridesmaids, tsk tsk… I was anxious for you at that time.”

“I think your top priority right now is to find yourself a partner quickly.”

“Look at you, you’re not getting any younger at twenty-seven, you have a stable job, a high income, and you’re good-looking. You’re just one decent girlfriend away from being a winner in life!”

“In my opinion, Qin Yue is a good choice. Let’s have a heart-to-heart talk; we’ve known each other for nearly three years. We know each other inside and out, right?”

“First of all, the girl is nice and she’s a Xiangya graduate student to boot. Now, why do you think the director has transferred her to work on scientific research? I bet it was arranged by Dean Qin! Dean Qin sees she’s not getting any younger and probably thinks it would be better for her not to work too hard and to get married soon.”

“Oh! By the way, you do know that the Dean of our Provincial Second Hospital is Qin Yue’s dad, don’t you?”

Chen Cang was taken aback and shook his head; he really didn’t know.

“Can’t tell, huh? Qin Yue keeps a low profile and is always crying poor.”

Wang Qian scoffed, “Pff, those who cry poor are the rich ones. People like me who brag all the time are the real poor. You also cry poor, but you make more in a month with just a few laparoscopies than I do!”

Chen Cang: …

Wang Qian laughed and patted Chen Cang’s shoulder, “Cang Er, let me tell you something from the heart. It’s not easy for a person to fight alone in Anyang City. Qin Yue is the best match for you. Just imagine if you two get married, wouldn’t Dean Qin promote you to a director? All the money and connections the Qin family has amassed over a lifetime would be yours, no?”

“In my opinion, it’s best to find a local bride! Just think about it, how thrilling would it be for Dean Qin to look after your kids once he’s retired?”

Qin Yue suddenly jumped out, “I’m going, discussing me behind my back at the entrance of the emergency department, Brother Qian’er, that’s not very nice of you!”

With Qin Yue’s arrival, these things couldn’t be said, and Wang Qian suddenly said to Chen Cang:

“Oh right, when you went out this morning, the director said that our department is going to recruit a bunch of people.”

“It seems they want to bring in two high-level talents and also hire a group of contract workers.”

The development of the emergency department is a good thing. Director Li Baoshan is ambitious and capable, and the Provincial Second Hospital is gradually developing its surgical fields.

Qin Yue nodded, “Yeah, I’ve heard about it too. It seems they’ve already gone to the capital to recruit people. They are looking to bring in special talent this time, apparently either doctoral graduates from prestigious universities or people with at least an associate senior professional title.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang grew curious, “What fields are they targeting?”

Qin Yue explained, “It seems they want to hire a vice-director for thoracic surgery. Our hospital’s thoracic surgery department was disbanded, wasn’t it? Now the field of thoracic surgery is a vacancy. Shi Qi, that guy, can’t really do anything, so the hospital has decided to hire a vice-director specializing in thoracic surgery to come to the emergency department and specifically perform thoracic surgeries.”

Wang Qian nodded, “That’s a good idea. Thoracic surgeries are closely related to big hospitals and emergency departments. Even if our hospital can’t establish a thoracic surgery department, we still need a few giants in the field of thoracic surgery to hold consultations! And the other position?”

Qin Yue replied, “I think it’s a doctorate in hand surgery.”

Wang Qian clicked his tongue a few times in admiration, “Looks like the hospital is really investing big this time, determined to boost our emergency department.”

As they spoke, they arrived at the hospital.

That afternoon, Chen Cang and Wang Yong organized the discharge records, since as the senior physician, Chen Cang needed to sign off on them.

Around four o’clock, Chen Cang’s phone rang.

“Chen, this is Xiao He. Come to the endoscopy room now. There’s a patient with an esophageal rupture and perforation. See if you can handle it; if not, I need to arrange a transfer immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang quickly put down what he was holding, “Director Xiao, I’ll come up and discuss it!”

ps: Tonight there will be five updates in total, with an additional three updates at twelve noon. That makes eight updates for today.
