Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: So It Was Him

There are multiple restaurants in the Second Hospital, concentrated on the underground level.

There’s only one employee restaurant, with access control at both the entrance and exit; you must swipe a card to enter. Clearly, only internal personnel can go in to buy food.

Doctor Xu swiped his card and went inside.

Li Jingsheng was blocked outside by the access control.

This person is even more indifferent than Ou Qinglan described.

"How about just eating at the regular restaurant next door and waiting for him to come out?"

Worried that he’d leave after work, Li had rushed here without having time to eat and was now starving!

Originally, he was planning to bum a meal off Doctor Xu, but upon meeting him, hit a dead end.

Seriously speaking, arriving hungry, he intended to invite Doctor Xu for a simple meal. At the table, he could seize the moment to build a relationship, but he didn’t expect Doctor Xu to be as impenetrable as a stone.

Li Jingsheng certainly wouldn’t give up so easily.

When climbing the mountains to worship Buddha, there are devotees who bow every three steps and kneel every nine to demonstrate their sincerity to the deity.

To apprentice under Doctor Xu, sincere effort and perseverance are required to move him.

The more skilled someone is, the more eccentric their personality tends to be.

Li Jingsheng ordered food at the regular restaurant across from the employee one, sat down, and began eating. The meal was two meats and one vegetable, costing 18 yuan, which is 3 yuan more than outside fast-food places.

That’s understandable.

Those who contract the hospital’s restaurant incur expensive fees; they have to sell at higher prices than outside to make money.

Both are owned by Green Leaf Catering Company; this side is open to everyone, while the other is a cost-effective employee restaurant.

This boss is good at business.

While hospital staff enjoy the benefits, his restaurant remains steadfast, safe from being squeezed out by insider connections.

Every place with people has visible and invisible ties of interest.

Li Jingsheng ate quickly, mostly worried about Doctor Xu coming out.

And not two minutes after he polished off his plate, Doctor Xu emerged.

As Doctor Xu exited, he specifically peeked at the corridors on either side of the exit, presumably to check whether Li Jingsheng had left.

He probably never expected that Li Jingsheng, that sly fox, was sitting right across at the regular restaurant waiting for him.

The main character appeared, and Li Jingsheng immediately sidled over.

"Doctor Xu, have you thought it over?"

Li Jingsheng suddenly popped up, startling Doctor Xu.

Coldness filled his face once again.

"Thought about what? I never agreed to anything with you at all."

He replied icily.

Willingness to reply is a good sign; the real worry is he might ignore Li Jingsheng completely.

"Look, I’m full of sincerity. This isn’t a bad thing we’re talking about, but rather something beneficial for generations. Please give it some consideration!" Li Jingsheng pressed on.

Doctor Xu might also not have expected to encounter a doctor with such thick skin.

Normally, many want to learn bone-setting techniques from him, but regardless of their background, he refuses them all.

Once rejected, people usually retreat.

This young clinic doctor, however, is quite stubborn.

"I’ll state it solemnly again: I don’t take apprentices, don’t take apprentices, don’t take apprentices! If you keep pestering, I’ll call security."

He warned Li Jingsheng sternly.

Their argument quickly caught many people’s attention.

Some doctors, nurses, and aides who had just finished their meals were pausing to watch the commotion.

This scene made Doctor Xu extremely uncomfortable; he picked up his feet and left.

He just wanted to quickly shake off Li Jingsheng and leave.
