"Director Tan, Master, Lu Cheng said he wants to go to the State People's Hospital to participate in the selection examination for more convenience in subsequent projects," Tong Yuan'an ntioned midway through the dinner.
"Hmm." Tan Zhongyuan nodded, "Doing projects in the county is unreliable, unless Long County were a developed county-level city, then it's sowhat feasible."
"Xiao Lu, which departnt are you thinking of going to? The Hand Surgery Departnt?"
Lu Cheng shook his head and candidly expressed, "Director Tan, I'm planning to go to the Ergency Departnt. I'm not really a hand surgeon. During my residency, the longest stint was in trauma surgery."
"Director Tan, I can arrange these matters myself."
Tan Zhongyuan glanced subtly at Lu Cheng and continued, "I believe you have the capability, Xiao Lu, but if decisions can be made, there's really no need for extra complications."
"Han Yunshen, when you get back, remind to contact Professor Bu in our hospital's Ergency Departnt."
"With a word from Professor Bu, this matter should be relatively easier."
"Let's not discuss this matter today. Co on, don't let the atmosphere cool down. You young folks, get into the groove when it's ti!"
"If you feel it's inconvenient, Zhou Professor and I can go for a cup of tea."
Enjoying drinks is often the special privilege of the young, and Tan Zhongyuan knew that if he stayed, Lu Cheng and the others wouldn't feel at ease.
So, Zhou Yuhui and Tan Zhongyuan left midway.
They're big bosses, and no one dared to persuade them to drink, so they left as they wished.
Once they left, the atmosphere beca lively. Tong Yuan'an introduced the other colleagues in detail to Lu Cheng.
Hu Yi and Han Yunshen also energetically connected with Lu Cheng, and the back-and-forth exchanges made for a pleasant atmosphere.
...
After drinking, Lu Cheng felt that it should be nothing more, and since he wasn't on duty tonight, he could go ho and rest well.
But just as he reached his doorstep, an unidentified call ca through.
The caller was from Xiangxi, Xiang Province.
"Hello," Lu Cheng answered the call.
"Is this Lu Cheng? My na is Xiao Zhaoxi." On the other end, a middle-aged man's voice sounded quite cheerful.
Lu Cheng hadn't t this person, but the na wasn't unfamiliar. Mu Nanshu had introduced him, and he was a relative of Mu Nanshu's family.
"Hello, Director Xiao. I'm Lu Cheng. Why did you call ?" Since he could be a future leader, Lu Cheng adjusted his tone imdiately.
"Xiao Lu, it wasn't who wanted to call you. My leader asked to. Why are you in a hurry?"
"I have my own arrangents for your matter. And about your connection with Mu Leng and Nanshu, isn't it?"
"You even gave a little surprise," Xiao Zhaoxi abruptly remarked.
"No, Director Xiao, is there so misunderstanding here?"
"Mu Nanshu and I agreed to visit you next month." Lu Cheng was baffled.
"You say no, but my teacher, Director Li, just called . You still say no?" Xiao Zhaoxi asked.
"Which Director Li? I really didn't, Uncle Xiao." Mu Nanshu had ntioned this was a distant cousin of Mu Leng.
The relationship with Mu Leng was close-yet-distant, so calling him Uncle was not wrong.
"The Director Li from Xiangya Hospital. You didn't know?"
"Then why did Director Li specifically call to tell to contact you imdiately?" Xiao Zhaoxi's cheerful tone vanished.
Once Xiao Zhaoxi ntioned it was Director Li from Xiangya Hospital, Lu Cheng roughly understood. It was Director Tan Zhongyuan who had facilitated this: "Uncle Xiao, is it Teacher Li from Xiangya Hospital?"
"Perhaps, a teacher I know might have helped."
"You're not familiar with Director Li?" Xiao Zhaoxi suddenly asked.
"Uncle Xiao, I don't know Director Li yet. If there's a chance, I'd appreciate it if you could recomnd ," Lu Cheng imdiately replied.
Connections are useful but hard to build.
Xiao Zhaoxi said, "Xiao Lu, you're not an outsider. What I said was a bit of a stretch; actually, Director Li isn't my teacher, though he's guided many tis."
"I thought you were familiar with Director Li and was considering arranging a et at a convenient ti."
"But it's fine if you're not familiar. Director Li has already given you a heads-up. In a while, we'll find ti to visit him."
"Who was the teacher you were talking about? They must be soone significant, right?"
"Where are you now? Perhaps I should co over..." Xiao Zhaoxi suddenly said.
Lu Cheng replied, "Uncle Xiao, I'm working in Long County and haven't arranged leave yet. But next month, I probably won't have to be on regular duty."
"So getting leave should be more convenient."
Xiao Zhaoxi said, "Don't wait until next month. I'll invite Mu Leng over. He's ntioned you several tis."
"You haven't told about the teacher you know."
Lu Cheng said, "It's Director Tan Zhongyuan from the Hand Surgery Departnt at Xiangya Hospital."
"Dean Lei's family, huh? No wonder!"
"Director Li is also a vice president at Xiangya Hospital, and Director Tan will soon be one, too. Your connections are solid..." Xiao Zhaoxi imdiately gave Lu Cheng a brief overview of the interpersonal relationships at Xiangya Hospital.
