Chapter 873: Chapter 875: Imbalance
“I really do apologize, I can’t join you for dinner.” Xiao Yifei said.
After Sun Xingyao stepped out, Tang Rong whispered to Xiao Yifei, “This Director Sun really doesn’t look like a good person. You have to be careful working with him, he seems very cunning.”
“It’s okay, you don’t need to worry about . I know him well and will be careful.” Xiao Yifei said with a smile to Tang Rong.
“Alright, once you finish eating, I’ll go. I still need to rush back to finish a proposal.” Tang Rong said.
“You’re so busy with work, yet you still thought of bringing food. It’s really kind of you.” Xiao Yifei said with compassion.
“Didn’t you ntion a few days ago that the cafeteria food wasn’t good? I thought, since you’re working so hard, you need to eat properly.” Tang Rong explained.
Xiao Yifei was a bit moved; he had only casually ntioned the bad cafeteria food while complinting Tang Rong’s cooking over dinner. He didn’t expect Tang Rong to rember and specially bring him food today.
Perhaps that’s what true love is, when a casually spoken word is etched in one’s heart. Xiao Yifei felt truly fortunate to have soone understanding in his life, knowing the smallest details. Whenever they ate out, Tang Rong would remind the waiter not to add cilantro in the dishes; all these details, over the years, only Tang Rong had done.
The hospital was abuzz with the latest news: two highly skilled doctors would be selected to go to Beijing for further studies. Everybody wanted to go, though they knew as long as Xiao Yifei was at this hospital, such opportunities weren’t related to them. They felt a little unbalanced inside.
Each doctor received email notifications, stating that anyone interested in the opportunity should submit their applications by the end of the workday.
By the next day, a total of six people applied. They were evaluated based on their performances at the hospital along with votes from everyone. That afternoon, the dean organized a half-hour short eting.
“Based on the application results, we’ve now selected four candidates whose performances are nearly identical. The final decision will be yours,” the dean said, and then voting began. For those they elected, there were no objections. They thought, finally, there was nothing involving Lin Mu.
In the end, the dean announced the results: “For this study, I will be sending Doctor Xiao Yifei with you.” Upon hearing such good news for Xiao Yifei once again, the crowd was dissatisfied, beginning to buzz with chatter.
One doctor, in his impatience, stood up and said, “Dean, this is too unfair. Wasn’t it supposed to be an open, transparent competition? How is it that Doctor Xiao Yifei is predetermined? I have objections to this result.”
As soon as soone spoke, others had no fear of speaking up. Since no trouble would fall on them, things briefly beca chaotic.
At that mont, Xiao Yifei opened the door and walked in. Seeing the noisy crowd, unaware they were discussing him, he quietly entered and sat on a chair nearest to the door.
Even the dean felt uncomfortable, unable to control the situation. But this slot was already decided; canceling Xiao Yifei’s spot now would be awkward!
“Doctor Xiao, I hope we can compete fairly,” the previously speaking doctor said loudly to Xiao Yifei. Though he knew he had no chance against Xiao Yifei, he couldn’t swallow his resentnt. Being constantly suppressed by Xiao Yifei was unbearable.
“What are you saying? Compete with for what?” Xiao Yifei appeared confused. What a baffling situation. He was rely notified of a eting, unaware that a few minute delay due to a patient led to such chaos.
“Regarding the hospital dispatching you to Beijing for further study, you are aware, right? But we all want to go, so I hope we get a fair competition.” That doctor continued.
Xiao Yifei looked oddly at the dean, wondering why such a big matter hadn’t been ntioned to him beforehand!
“Sorry, I was genuinely unaware, and if you truly want this opportunity, I can yield to you.” Xiao Yifei said indifferently. He truly didn’t care about training opportunities; life seed just fine as it was.
“Dean, any other matters? Otherwise, I need to attend to patients and will leave.” With that, Xiao Yifei left the eting room.
Leaving the dean and others in bewildernt, they wondered what Xiao Yifei was thinking, easily giving up such an opportunity. But perhaps relinquishing it was for the best.
The dean was equally discontent with Xiao Yifei’s actions, yet didn’t bla him. He should have inford Xiao Yifei beforehand, yet hadn’t anticipated today’s ss. Xiao Yifei’s brilliant dical skill was widely acknowledged; what was there to envy?
“So be it, Doctor Xiao Yifei’s spot will go to the next person. You three can go ho, prepare, and head out tomorrow. eting adjourned.” The dean declared.
Back at his office, Dean Qian found a letter slipped through the door gap, pondering how soone would still write letters nowadays!
Upon opening, it was filled with complaints about Xiao Yifei: “Since Xiao Yifei joined this hospital, everyone’s performance has been affected. Almost every patient request is to see Xiao Yifei, leaving us with abundant free ti. We’re not deliberately targeting Xiao Yifei, but he surpasses limits. We’ve lost the value of being doctors due to inactivity.”
Dean Qian finished the letter, being electronically printed made it impossible to guess the author, but coupled with today’s eting’s events, dissatisfaction toward Xiao Yifei reached a boiling point. He had occasionally heard similar sentints, but hadn’t realized it was this severe.
Based on his understanding, Xiao Yifei was not such a person; he was courteous to everyone, demonstrated exceptional professionalism, and was undoubtedly skilled—the best. But why did others despise him so?
Could it be simply because Xiao Yifei was too exceptional, inciting jealousy? Yet, that wasn’t a justification for suppressing him. The correct approach was to earnestly fulfill one’s role. When opportunities arise, only then can they be seized!
