Sure enough, that saying on the internet is true.
It's not that capable people don't socialize, it's just that their social circles don't include you.
Director Hua wants to be friends with Lian Tao, but he's likely not interested.
It's not really belittling myself, it's almost the same in any field. Would a boss making ten million a year become good friends with one making a hundred thousand a year?
They'd probably start fighting before exchanging ten sentences.
Because different levels mean their understanding gaps are particularly significant.
"Dr. Li really has a wide network! I still have a meeting to attend, please excuse me."
Dean Fu bid farewell to Li Jingsheng and the others, taking Director Hua and others away.
He started calling Li Jingsheng "Dr. Li" instead of Xiaoli.
Maybe he saw the extent of Li Jingsheng's connections.
After seeing off these distinguished guests, Li Jingsheng returned to the consultation hall to continue seeing patients.
The names of the gift givers written on those floral baskets highlighted the strong network behind Sunshine Clinic.
At least in this area of the southern city, hardly anyone could surpass them now.
It wasn't until past seven in the evening that there were finally fewer people.
Li Jingsheng and several employees had been rushing to eat their lunch.
Today's number of patients and customers buying medicine both set new records.
"Thank you, everyone, for your hard work. Head home early and rest!"
Li Jingsheng said to the four people.
Remembering something, he took a small bottle out of the drawer.
"Siying, keep this with you. If you're in danger, spray it in the attacker's eyes."
It was a bottle of pepper spray.
Though it looked small, it was extremely powerful. Quite effective against attackers.
"Thanks, Master!"
Han Siying was deeply touched as she accepted and looked at it.
Li Jingsheng didn't persuade her to move again.
Because adult thinking is very stubborn, and sometimes it's impossible to persuade them.
"Boss, it looks like someone is renovating our old clinic's storefront."
Xiaogao ran out and soon came back to report to Li Jingsheng.
"Isn't it not due yet? I'll go take a look."
Li Jingsheng had specifically left five days for one thing: to worry that old customers couldn't find them, leaving a sign at the entrance to inform others that they'd moved across the street.
He went to the old clinic across the street and indeed saw workers working overtime inside to renovate.
The sign was moved inside and placed against the wall.
Even though the landlord's wife and that person's actions were despicable, the property belonged to them, and acting according to the contract is understandable.
Jumping in to take advantage is one thing, but scheming and playing petty tricks everywhere is another.
That's simply too low.
Li Jingsheng isn't easily taken advantage of.
Nor will he let himself be bullied.
"I'll ask him to refund two days' rent to you!"
"It must be five days, not a cent less. My sign is here. I'll check tomorrow, and if there's more of this low behavior, moving it aside on purpose, don't blame me for turning hostile. Just rent out the storefront and make your rental income, and stop these low-level tactics."
It wasn't just a day or two dealing with this landlord's wife's antics.
Today, he finally vented it all out.
"Humph! Young man, don't get so angry! I've lived off meals day by day, not threats. You can have your five days' rent back; it's not much to begin with."
The landlord's wife agreed.
Perhaps she knew she was in the wrong, and since Li Jingsheng spoke with such resolve, she was also likely uneasy.
Not long after, that sneaky person came over.
Sure enough, it was him, and he refunded 1,330 yuan to Li Jingsheng.
Scanned and transferred on the spot.
This calmed Li Jingsheng, and he didn't make trouble for this person again.
