Chapter 5

In the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City, in the office building.

As a top-tier comprehensive hospital, the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City is one of the leading hospitals in the entire city. Its status in the Zhonghai City and even the national health system is extremely prominent. To put it in perspective, if the Xiehe Hospital in Shangjing and the Xiangya Hospital in Chunan are considered the Shaolin and Wudang of the medical world, then the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City is equivalent to the Kunlun or Emei level.

Backed by the international metropolis of Zhonghai City, the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City receives top-tier support in every aspect. It has the most advanced equipment and the most cutting-edge talent. It's impossible for it not to be outstanding.

On the fifth floor of the office building, in the office of the Medical Affairs Department.

Tang Zheng stood in front of the large desk, showing great respect. He seemed somewhat tense, his eyes fixed on the man sitting in the chair in front of him, the head of the Medical Affairs Department, Ye Zhengping. Tang Zheng was somewhat puzzled as to why the great Ye Zhengping would call him, a mere intern, to his office. Given Ye Zhengping's status, he probably wouldn't even recognize a regular doctor. Just as he was thinking, Ye Zhengping spoke.

"Tang Zheng, since you've been interning for about nine months, how many times have you been late? Have you counted?" The slightly overweight middle-aged man in the large chair looked at the young man in front of him, his voice stern and severe.

At this moment, Tang Zheng was very cautious. He really couldn't understand why the Medical Affairs Department would suddenly care about an intern being late. He glanced at the man and said in a low voice, "Director Ye, it should be the third time."

In nine months, being late only three times was indeed quite rare. Moreover, interns are generally not part of the hospital's formal system, and the hospital's management of interns is not strict. Some interns might not come to the hospital for several days, even ten days or half a month, which is quite common.

At this moment, Tang Zheng really couldn't understand why he would be called to the Medical Affairs Department for being late. This seemed like making a mountain out of a molehill. An intern? This is someone who will leave after the internship, what does it have to do with the hospital?

"Three days?" Director Ye raised his voice. "Three days? Is that not much? Look at me, I've worked in the hospital for decades, and I always arrive ten minutes early every day. Do you have a reason? Is being late not much?"

Continuing, Director Ye said, "Moreover, although you've only been late three times, look at yourself. Except for rest days, which day have you not been right on time? You start work at eight, and it's a miracle if you're in the office by 7:58. You always arrive at 7:59. Are you that busy? Are you the Prime Minister or the President, with so much to do?"

Hearing this, Tang Zheng frowned. He could see that this was clearly a setup. There were so many interns in the hospital, and some were late dozens of times, yet they singled him out. There must be a reason.

Besides, whether it's 7:58 or 7:59, it's not really being late. Is it necessary to make such a fuss?

Lifting his head, Tang Zheng looked at Director Ye, his tone still very respectful. "Director Ye, I promise I won't be late again. I'll try to come in earlier."

Being poor and without any family background, compromise and tolerance were something Tang Zheng was used to. Bowing his head at this moment was not a big deal. Confronting a powerful figure like this would not be beneficial for him, especially since his internship evaluation was in the hands of this person.

However, what Tang Zheng didn't expect was that Director Ye was clearly not willing to let him off. After a moment, Director Ye looked at Tang Zheng and said, "No need, Tang Zheng. The hospital has already made a decision about you. President Wu has approved it. For someone like you, a troublemaker, we will dismiss you. Come to the office tomorrow morning to complete the procedures. You can go wherever you want after that. Our First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City does not need a student without discipline."

Hearing Director Ye's words, Tang Zheng's expression changed. Dismissing him was like cutting off his future. Once he left this place, it meant he would not have an internship evaluation or grades. Without these, he wouldn't get his graduation certificate. Without a graduation certificate, his university education would be in vain.

Who could be so ruthless, opposing him like this? Could it be Wu Bowen? A figure flashed in Tang Zheng's mind. In the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City, only Wu Bowen had a grudge against him. Last night, he hit Wu Bowen, and then Wu Bowen made those remarks. Today, this happened. There was no need to think further; only Wu Bowen could have done this.

At this moment, Tang Zheng sneered inwardly. To prevent Li Fei from getting close to him, Wu Bowen was willing to use any means. If it were before, Tang Zheng might have been afraid. But now, after using that miraculous medical skill to save the girl's life, he was no longer afraid. With such a skill, the world, though vast, was open to him.

Moreover, seeing Ye Zhengping's determined expression, Tang Zheng understood that there was no room for negotiation.

At this moment, Tang Zheng became more relaxed. He looked at Director Ye coldly and sneered, "Ye Zhengping, you really don't live up to your name. Fair? Just? Ha, do you feel a great sense of achievement by targeting a mere intern? Does licking Wu Bowen's ass feel good? Has Deputy Director Wu prepared to promote you?"

Ye Zhengping, the great head of the Medical Affairs Department of the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City, was completely stunned. Not to mention a small intern, even the doctors and nurses in the hospital would not dare to speak to him like this. This was like an old man drinking arsenic, wishing for a shorter life.

It was the first time he encountered someone like Tang Zheng. Ye Zhengping was trembling, standing up and pointing at Tang Zheng, "Get out, get out of here. As long as I'm here, you won't step into the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City again."

Hearing this, Tang Zheng raised an eyebrow. Since the face had already been torn, there was no point in caring about other things. Moreover, thinking about his miraculous medical skill, he smiled calmly, "Ha, is the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City that great? If I don't go, then I won't. Who knows? Maybe one day, you'll be the one begging me to come."

After saying this, Ye Zhengping burst into laughter, "That's the funniest joke of the century. Beg you? I've seen many young people like you. I'll only beg you to come to the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City if I really go crazy. If that day comes, I'll kneel down and beg you."

After saying this, Ye Zhengping looked up at Tang Zheng, said nothing, and directly took out a document from the drawer and threw it over. He said coldly, "Tang Zheng, this is the document for your dismissal. Sign it here."

The reason the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City needed to go through such a process to dismiss an intern and complete the procedures was not for any other reason but to prevent the Zhonghai Medical University from making a fuss.

Otherwise, why would an intern, who has not signed any labor contract, need such a big effort?

Zhonghai Medical University, as a well-known medical university in the country, has strict rules for intern placements. Every student's placement, the amount of internship fees, and other details are regulated. There is a cooperation agreement between the hospital and the university. Dismissals cannot be done arbitrarily, and in fact, there has never been a precedent for an intern being dismissed in the history of Zhonghai Medical University.

This time, the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City was setting a precedent, so it had to be thorough. Dismissals require a reason, and a written document must be provided to explain the situation to Zhonghai Medical University. This document was also to prevent the university from making a fuss.

Tang Zheng picked up the document and quickly scanned it. Apart from the absurd reason for dismissal, the rest was basically true. Ye Zhengping did not fabricate or exaggerate. This made it easier for him to approach the hospital later.

After what had just happened, Tang Zheng became even more calm. If he was worried about his future before, now he was full of confidence. With the miraculous medical skill in his mind, Tang Zheng believed he could make a living anywhere, even live well. Who knows, maybe one day, he would be the one being begged to come to the First People's Hospital of Zhonghai City.

Without hesitation, Tang Zheng signed his name on the document in a straightforward and decisive manner.

Looking at Ye Zhengping, Tang Zheng smiled, "Director Ye, are you curious? Should I be clinging to your legs, crying and begging you to give me another chance?"

Hearing Tang Zheng's clearly sarcastic words, Ye Zhengping snorted and turned his head, "Hmph, a clown. Nonsense."

With the support of his miraculous medical skill, Tang Zheng's mindset had completely changed. He walked to Ye Zhengping's side, helped him tidy up his clothes, and said with a playful smile, "Director Ye, goodbye. I believe the next time we meet, it will be very pleasant."
