So that was how it was. Only then did Ye Zhiqing not find it strange. The warmth in her eyes disappeared. She said coldly, “There are so many outstanding surgeons in the hospital, and there’s also the new department director. Why do you need me to go?”

Dean Tian was stunned by her words. This was the first time she had spoken to him so bluntly. It seemed like the matter this time had really hurt her. Dean Tian could only say, “Zhiqing, I trust your ability the most. This patient’s identity is not ordinary. You can help the director. As long as you come, the position of chief of surgery will definitely be yours.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the old man sitting in the wheelchair with his eyes closed. Cold sweat was almost dripping from his forehead as he prayed fervently that Ye Zhiqing would agree.

“Alright,” Ye Zhiqing said. She wasn’t doing this for the position of the Department of Surgery Director, and she wasn’t prepared to work in the hospital anymore. However, the dean had indeed treated her well before. This time, she would treat it as her final repayment.

“But…”

“I’ll agree to anything you say.” Before she could finish speaking, Dean Tian hurriedly replied. He finally felt relieved.

Ye Zhiqing found it a little strange, but she still said, “I’ll officially resign afterwards.”

Dean Tian did not expect this. He took a look at the old man in the wheelchair and could only agree first. Today, this gentleman suddenly came to find him and asked to see Ye Zhiqing. Before knowing her relationship with this big shot, he could not act rashly. It would be bad if he brought trouble to the hospital.

However, he did not know that it was this hesitation that caused him to lose the chance to ascend to top.

Ye Zhiqing hung up the phone and tidied up briefly. When she went out, she took out a sticky post with some hesitation and wrote where she was going. Then, she stuck it at the entrance where Gu Mingcheng could see it as soon as he came back.

Dean Tian said to the old man in a fawning manner, “Second Master Qin, she’ll be here soon. I wonder what you’re looking for Ye Zhiqing for?”

This was the Second Master of the Qin family in the capital. It seemed like his hospital had to curry favor with him. He hoped that Ye Zhiqing had not done anything to offend him, so as not to implicate the hospital.

“Does my second grandfather need to report anything to you?” Qin Zheng, who was beside the old man, said impatiently. One could tell that this dean was not a person with good intentions. Ever since they reported their identity, he had been fawning over them.

Dean Tian froze and quickly lowered his head to say yes.

“Little Zheng,” Second Master Qin called softly with a hint of warning in his voice.

Qin Zheng pursed his lips and did not dare to say anything else. In the Qin Family, the fearless little tyrant would only listen to this Second Master. Second Master Qin opened his eyes and glanced at Dean Tian. He said, “What kind of person do you think Ye Zhiqing is?”

Dean Tian swallowed hard and did not know how to answer. Should he say that she was good or bad?

Second Master Qin knew what he was thinking with one look. He said, “You don’t have to feel burdened. Just tell the truth.”

Dean Tian said hesitantly, “Ever since she entered the hospital, she has been working hard. Her medical skills are the best in the hospital. I don’t know much about her character. After all, we don’t interact much.”

He would avoid the important and dwell on the trivial, so he wouldn’t fault him for saying this. Even if Ye Zhiqing really offended this man, it had nothing to do with him.

A complicated look flashed across Second Master Qin’s eyes. He ignored Dean Tian and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

Qin Zheng wanted to say something, but when he saw his second grandpa, he did not dare to speak and could only stand behind him silently.

When Ye Zhiqing arrived, Dean Tian quickly left the room, as if he had found his savior. If he continued to stay, he would definitely be frightened. This Second Master of the Qin family was too scary.

Ye Zhiqing looked at the frightened Dean Tian and was a little confused. She asked, “Dean, what’s wrong? Why are you so flustered?”

Dean Tian pulled her to the side and asked softly, “Zhiqing, tell me the truth. Do you know anyone from the Qin family?”

Ye Zhiqing frowned and shook her head. “No, why?”

Seeing that she did not seem to be lying, Dean Tian muttered to himself, “Then why did he specify that he wanted to see you?”

Ye Zhiqing did not hear clearly and asked again..
