Chapter 363: [363] It turns out to be from her hotown Chapter 363: [363] It turns out to be from her hotown Zhu Huicang adjusted his glasses and felt that the na of the city seed vaguely familiar.
Three doctors seated nearby from a different dical institution suddenly rembered, “Songyuan, it’s from our province.”
“It’s from your province?” asked soone else.
“Yes, it’s from our province,” the three external hospital doctors said in unison.
From the sa province, could these people be from Xie Wanying’s hotown?
There was a sudden silence in the private room.
“Are they your fellow countryn?” Luo Yanfen pointed across the table and asked Xie Wanying.
Xie Wanying wasn’t sure which hospital the senior doctors across from her were from, or whether they were from a hospital in her hotown.
“We are doctors from Zhongshan dical First Affiliated Hospital,” the three external hospital doctors introduced themselves, “We ca here because we had previously t Teacher Fu and Teacher Zhu at the national cardiothoracic academic exchange conference, and we have so connections with Teacher Fu’s team, so our hospital sent us to discuss a partnership with Guoxie. We hope our hospital’s young doctors could regularly co to Guoxie for specialized cardiothoracic training. Guoxie’s cardiothoracic training base is the best in the country, and everyone wants to learn here.”
So they were doctors from Zhongshan dical, which was very famous in her hotown; students who graduated from Zhongshan dical typically had no problem finding jobs in hospitals within the province. Back then, she too had once dread of attending this dical college.
Now even the doctors from Zhongshan dical believed that Guoxie’s cardiothoracic departnt was the best. Xie Wanying thought to herself how fortunate she was to have insisted on getting into Guoxie no matter what.
“Yingying, isn’t your cousin at Zhongshan dical?” Wu Lixuan whispered into her childhood friend’s ear.
Had her childhood friend not ntioned it, she would have completely forgotten about this matter. Her maternal cousin Zhou Ruoi had made it sound so appealing, saying that her cousin would call to guide her through dical school, yet in over three years, not a single call ca through. Now, looking back, Xie Wanying thought it was a blessing he never called, or else it would have been incredibly awkward.
Seeing that she did not deny it, Luo Yanfen laughed and said, “So, you really are fellow countryn with them.”
Fellow countryn eting each other, tears brimming in their eyes – they should hurry up and share so hotown sentints. Everyone at the table thought so.
Since the people opposite were her seniors, Xie Wanying could only wait for them to speak first to avoid seeming overeager and sticking her ‘hot face’ to soone who might not acknowledge her as a fellow countryman. “You’re from Songyuan, yet you managed to get into Guoxie?” the three seniors asked her, their tone carrying a hint of surprise.
The others, listening to their tone, didn’t quite understand, “Is there a problem with her attending Guoxie?”
“Because students in our province wanting to study dicine can apply to Zhongshan dical College,” the three Zhongshan dical doctors said confidently and proudly.
Zhongshan dical College was extrely well-known in The South, ranking among the top few national dical colleges, and definitely number one within the province. In such a situation, outstanding local students wouldn’t need to go far to study dicine in the north.
The climate, diet, and lifestyle differences between The South and the north are stark; southern people find it quite difficult to adapt when they move north.
Being from afar without connections is a great hindrance to dical students’ employnt prospects. The dical community is also a place that values personal connections.
“Are you here alone?” her senior countryn asked.
In more than three years, Xie Wanying hadn’t found a single fellow countryman from Songyuan at Guoxie; even those from the sa province seed to be only heard of but never seen, likely because there were too few of them. Xie Wanying had to admit this reality, as the best local students would prefer Zhongshan dical, just like her cousin.
“Why did you co to study at Guoxie? How many points did you score on the college entrance exam?” her senior countryn bombarded her with a series of questions.
“She was the top science student,” Wu Lixuan answered for her childhood friend.
“The top science student, a girl?” The few Zhongshan dical seniors were taken aback, recalling an important fact, “Is she from the 96 Class?”
