Chapter 168: Chapter 169: Medical Ethics and Benevolence Test Mission! (Seeking monthly tickets!)

Li Jianwei saw Song Qiang enter, and immediately started cursing him!

“Song Qiang! Get over here, what is this all about?” Li Jianwei threw the newspaper at him.

Song Qiang’s face turned from pale to purple, struggling to catch his breath. Already seething with anger, he was now infuriated by being scolded and pointed at by Li Jianwei!

“Isn’t this just a notice of reprimand? Chen Cang left his post during working hours. As the head of the medical department, can’t I discipline him?” said Song Qiang, his neck stiff with defiance. “These media businesses just can’t wait for us to have an incident, all for the sake of getting eyeballs. This Anyang Daily News is no better, just as dirty!”

Li Jianwei was stunned to see Song Qiang talking back so forcefully. He walked over and glared at him, “Now you think you’re in the right? Let me ask you, what time do you come to work every day? What time is stipulated by our hospital? Every day we start at eight o’clock, and as the head of the medical department, when have you ever led by example!”

“For a single hour of absence, look at your punishment: a recorded offense, disqualification from performance awards, and even interference in the future professional title evaluations. Are you saying that if it were allowed, you’d take a knife to Chen Cang given the chance!”

Li Jianwei’s words were piercingly unpleasant to Song Qiang’s ears!

“Chen Cang refuses to acknowledge his mistakes. I gave him a chance after issuing the first announcement. All he had to do was come up, apologize, make a statement, and admit he was wrong. It’s not like I didn’t give him the opportunity! But what did Chen Cang say? He said he needed to rest after working the night shift! Director Li, as a leader, what would you do if someone under you stubbornly refused to work properly?”

“There are already some employees in our hospital who aren’t serious about their work. I’m making an example of Chen Cang to warn others!”

Li Jianwei was almost amused by his anger!

“You hadn’t ‘killed any chickens’ before, and you didn’t ‘kill any chickens’ after, but you choose to do so just when Chen Cang slaps you in the face, right?” “Your explanations mean nothing to me, look at what the newspaper says, alleging our Provincial Second Hospital abuses power and tarnishes the brand! A hospital reputation we’ve built up over decades, how dare you sully it!”

“Look at what the newspaper’s written!”

Li Jianwei, furious, picked up the newspaper, “See this? The head of the medical department, cutting in line, making the idea that everyone is equal before life a complete joke!”

“Song Qiang, it’s a shame you’re the head of the medical department. Seems like all these years have been a waste. I’m telling you, you solve this problem today or I’ll solve it for you!”

After saying this, Li Jianwei slammed the table and pointed angrily at Song Qiang’s nose.

At a loss for words, Song Qiang sighed. He truly had been rash in his actions, driven to distraction by his anger at Chen Cang.

Fueled additionally by the brainless instigations of Yuan Fan.

Thinking of this, Song Qiang was beside himself with anger!

But it was too late.

Song Qiang stood up and looked at Li Jianwei, “Director Li, I’ll handle this matter; there’s no need to worry.”

After speaking, Song Qiang stood up to leave.

Li Jianwei also sighed. Although Song Qiang may not have other abilities, he was generally adept at handling disputes. Since the incident had already occurred, criticism was meaningless. Solving the problem was what mattered most.

Just as Song Qiang was about to leave, Li Jianwei suddenly called out to him!

“Song Qiang, wait.”

Song Qiang turned around, “Director Li, do you have any further instructions?”

Li Jianwei said indifferently, “Do you know what Chen Cang did that night?”

Song Qiang shook his head.

Li Jianwei said, “That night, he went to the operating room and saved someone —the old Director Fang Yonglin!”

Upon hearing this, Song Qiang’s body trembled.

Chen Cang approached the door to the general surgery department and knocked softly.

“Come in.”

An elderly voice called out, and Chen Cang pushed the door open, closing it gently behind him.

“Good to see you, Mr. Fang,” Chen Cang walked to the window, bowed slightly as a sign of respect.

Fang Yonglin put down the newspaper in his hand, “So you are Chen, right?”

Chen Cang nodded, “Yes, teacher, my name is Chen Cang.”

Fang Yonglin breathed a sigh of relief, “Come, sit here.”

After Fang Yonglin’s surgery and with the jaundice treatment, his complexion had significantly improved.

“Speaking of which, I owe my life to you this time, I need to thankyou,” Fang Yonglin sat up, looking at Chen Cang with a softer gaze.

Chen Cang hastily replied, “Saving lives and healing the wounded is our sacred duty. I have no idea how many lives Teacher Fang has saved in his lifetime, I merely did what was expected in my role.”

Fang Yonglin cracked a rare smile, “Well, this is the first time I’ve met you, but I just read about you in the newspaper, and you know, in front of life, everyone is equal, you did very well. It’s the first time I’ve seen Du Jiaxi give such praise to someone.”

Chen Cang was startled, “Newspaper? What do you mean? Who is… Du Jiaxi?”

Fang Yonglin handed the newspaper over to him, “Have a look.”

After carefully reading it, Chen Cang was dumbfounded!

He never imagined that yesterday’s incident would make it into the newspapers!

And to receive such high praise for himself.

At the thought, Chen Cang couldn’t help but blush.

But to tell the truth, even if there were a next time, Chen Cang would do the same.

Watching Chen Cang, Fang Yonglin said, “Chen, the reason I wanted to see you is not to say anything else but to tell you, as a doctor, you should act thus. Our job is to treat diseases and save lives, help the dying and heal the injured. The ancients said it well, ‘A man who is not close to virtue cannot be a doctor.’ We may not aspire to much, but whatever we do, we should always listen to our conscience, and never forget the original intention of becoming a doctor.”

With that, Fang Yonglin sighed, “Society has reached such a state now. I’ve lived almost ninety years and have seen many changes. In fact, whether you saved me, an old man, or not, I’ve lived long enough. Today, I just happened to see you and wanted to chat more!”

Chen Cang quickly said, “You must be joking, Teacher Fang, you are a treasured asset of the Provincial Second Hospital. Your experience and your character are something you need to pass on to others.”

Fang Yonglin chuckled with a hehe, his face covered in age spots and when he smiled, his wrinkles blurred his eyes, “Alright, alright, Chen, be a good doctor, a truly good doctor! The new generation needs people like you.”

“However long 1 live, I’ll support you. Don’t worry, just like the day before yesterday, when you encounter something, don’t be afraid. I, Fang Yonglin, will back you up!”

Chen Cang smiled, “All right, teacher!”

Chen Cang was taken aback!

He hadn’t expected that meeting with the old dean Fang would bring such rewards!
