Chapter 880: Sudden Quest
“Dinner’s ready!” Chief Kong’s wife shouted from the kitchen, ending the silence in the living room.
“Let’s go. Have a taste of the Maotai Boss Zheng brought.” Chief Kong stood up with a smile.
It could be seen that he was very happy with Zheng Ren bringing two bottles of Maotai. With his status, would he care about two bottles of Maotai? This was not a joke.
What he cared about was Zheng Ren’s attitude toward him.
His EQ was very low, and it could be said that he had been struggling at the hospital all this time. For Zheng Ren, who was not familiar with society, bringing two bottles of Maotai meant something in itself.
Chief Kong did not think that he had done Zheng Ren a great favor by transferring him from Sea City. If he did not do it, Boss Zheng would still be a treasure that everyone would fight over within a year.
He had taken advantage of the fact that he could trick Little Zheng to come to the 912.
Why did he have to fight for such a good policy for Zheng Ren? Why did he disregard the other group of professors and brazenly snatch beds from each of them? Because Chief Kong was afraid.
He was afraid that Zheng Ren would realize that he had been too harsh after half a year and turn against him.
Chief Kong did not want to do bad things with good intentions.
Sometimes, Chief Kong was very envious of Old Chief Physician Pan of Sea City. He could see that Zheng Ren’s respect for Old Chief Physician Pan came from the bottom of his heart. They met at the briefest of moments and he gave Zheng Ren his first stage in his life.
With a platform like that and his skills, he would not be destroyed in the world.
He could only be considered as the icing on the cake. He could not be considered as timely assistance. As Chief Kong thought about it, he was slightly distressed.
Boss Zheng had grown too f*cking fast!
If he did not watch out, the surgery would be broadcasted live and the whole world would know about it. Now, even his old classmates had came to him for a meal.
After a while, he did not know what would happen.
Chief Kong wanted to hand over the entire Department of Interventional Medicine to Zheng Ren, but that was absolutely not allowed. Of the four professors under him, which one of them was not established and had countless moguls standing behind them?
Splitting a bed was already the limit. Just like that, Chief Kong was prepared to suffer a backlash when he returned.
Chief Kong knew very well how much a bed in the Imperial Capital was worth.
However, when he looked at the two bottles of Maotai, he was exceptionally happy. Everything was worth it!
Boss Little Zheng did not forget his roots. It was not in vain that he had taken on such a big responsibility with him.
“Sister-in-law’s cooking! Haven’t had it in a long time.” Zhu Liangchen was not a stranger at all. He walked to the table and leaned over to smell the fragrance of the dishes. “Sister-in-law, your skills have grown.”
“Little Yiren cooked.” Chief Kong’s wife was still busy nagging, and her voice came from the kitchen.
Zhu Liangchen did not think much of it. He was so close to Chief Kong that it did not matter even if he said a word or two out of turn.
“Old Fifth, you are too cold-hearted,” Chief Kong said with a smile. “If you didn’t come to see Boss Zheng, would you not have planned to visit me for the rest of my life?”
“Look at what you’re saying,” Zhu Liangchen said. “I’m always busy. I’m exhausted from performing surgeries every day, and I even have to go out to the clinic. Who would come to you for no reason? If I’m not annoyed by that, wouldn’t I be afraid of you being annoyed?”
“Sit, sit. Have a bite. This is a family banquet. Don’t talk about surgeries,” Chief Kong warned.
His cell phone rang. Chief Kong glanced at it and pressed the ‘mute’ button.
“Who was it?”
“It’s not you. Besides you, no one else can come to this house today,” Chief Kong smiled. “I’m so tired. Going to drink some wine and have a good sleep.”
The few of them sat down. Su Yun knowingly began to pour wine for the two chief physicians.
The wine was good wine. No one knew how old it was. After opening the bottle, only two-thirds of the bottle was left. Song Ying would not fool Zheng Ren with the wine he ordered from Song Ying.
“This period of time has been hard on you,” Zhu Liangchen raised his glass and said seriously. “Come, Boss. Let’s toast to you.”
Chief Kong did not clink his glass. He sighed slightly and said, “Speaking of hard work, my side is only making arrangements. It’s really hard work. The ones who face death and sacrifice are Boss Zheng and the others.”
“Huh?” Zhu Liangchen’s expression changed.
“Boss Zheng went to the front lines too?” he asked subconsciously.
“The first batch went up.” Chief Kong glanced at Zheng Ren and complained, “You’re just a commoner. You don’t even have a military background. Why did you go up?”
Zheng Ren chuckled. “Heat of the moment.”
“Because of you…” Chief Kong was halfway through his sentence when he immediately felt that something was wrong.
It was not because there were not many Zheng Ren, not many Zheng Ren.
But…
With or without Zheng Ren, the outcome was really different!
Seeing that Chief Kong hesitated for a moment, Zhu Liangchen was a little puzzled. In his opinion, Zheng Ren, a Nobel Prize candidate, should not go to the front lines at all. If he stayed behind, he contribute, right?
“It’s really different,” Chief Kong pondered slightly and said indifferently in the end.
“…” Zhu Liangchen was stunned.
What nonsense was this?
Was it really different? Could it be that Boss Zheng had single-handedly reversed the natural disaster?
Nonsense!
“Boss, drink up,” Zhu Liangchen felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he raised his glass and said.
“Old Fifth, do you think I’m talking nonsense?” Chief Kong and Zhu Liangchen had been friends for many years, so he knew what Zhu Liangchen was thinking with just one look. He seriously said, “Boss Zheng was the vanguard at that time, and was in the first batch to enter Nanchuan Town.”
Zhu Liangchen’s expression froze.
It was self-evident what it meant to be the first batch to enter the epicenter of the earthquake.
“None of this is important. Under such circumstances, we really can’t do anything on our own.” Chief Kong recalled all the images sent back from the front lines, and he felt dejected. “But the first thing Boss Zheng did was to contact the headquarters and ask the whole country to mobilize kidney physicians and transfer dialysis machines to the whole country. The people will never forget this service.”
Zheng Ren did not smile. Instead, he raised his head slightly, as if a huge fist had reached out from midair and was about to collide with him.
“Forget it. Let’s not talk about the past anymore.” Chief Kong raised his cup and smiled. “Come, Boss Zheng, let’s celebrate the success of your broadcast!”
“Why doesn’t Boss Zheng drink?” Zhu Liangchen was slightly annoyed.
“Chief Zhu, Boss Zheng drinks a lot.” Su Yun smiled and said, “How about this? I’ll drink with you and Chief Kong. Add Boss Zheng’s portion and multiply it by two. What do you think?”
“Get lost!” Chief Kong shouted. “Boss Zheng brought two bottles of Maotai. You want to drink more than half by yourself? Don’t even think about it!”
In the midst of joking, he dropped the subject.
Zhu Liangchen did not compete in drinking. After all, it was a family banquet. It was enough that he even considered it.
If he really drank too much at Chief Kong’s house, it would not be embarrassing enough.
This kind of wine was truly powerful.
During this period, Chief Kong hung up on countless calls, but he did not dare to turn off his phone…
As he was eating, a ‘ding dong’ sound rang in Zheng Ren’s ears.
