"Brother Yun Ting, you're back..."
As Wan Yun Ting arrived downstairs at the hospital dormitory, a figure flew towards him. It was Su Ke'er, dressed in cartoon pajamas, carrying a takeaway of fried noodles. She stopped abruptly before Wan Yun Ting, her big eyes wide, exclaiming, "Brother Yun Ting, you look so handsome in that outfit..."
Wan Yun Ting smiled and gestured to the late-night snack in her hand, "Don't bring me late-night snacks anymore."
Su Ke'er finally reacted and handed him the fried noodles, giggling, "I'll bring you one every night from now on."
Wan Yun Ting accepted them helplessly, "Thank you."
Taking out his key and opening the door, Su Ke'er performed a "carp leaping" maneuver and darted inside. She looked around the room in surprise, "Brother Yun Ting, your room is so clean! You're tidier than I am. I guess I'm not needed here..."
Wan Yun Ting placed the fried noodles on the table and chuckled, "You're a girl. Don't you worry about people talking if you just barge into my room like this."
"I'm not scared at all."
Su Ke'er sat on Wan Yun Ting's bed without any reservations, giggling, "Compared to you, Brother Yun Ting, what am I?"
Wan Yun Ting smiled and shook his head, opening the fried noodles to eat. He was hungry, having not even had a sip of wine at the Wang family's place.
"Brother Yun Ting, the dean might fire you!"
Su Ke'er stood up and walked over, squatting cutely on the floor with her hands on the table and her chin resting on them. Her big, watery eyes looked at Wan Yun Ting, who was eating fried rice, and she pouted, "What are you going to do next?"
Wan Yun Ting glanced at her, "Find another way out."
Su Ke'er's eyes darted around, and she excitedly said, "Brother Yun Ting, why don't you go to the Traditional Chinese Medicine department!"
"The TCM department?"
Wan Yun Ting paused. He knew it was next door, also called Southern Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
"Yes! Your TCM skills are so good, you can directly be a physician there," Su Ke'er said with a smile.
Hehe, that way, she could still work at the same hospital as him.
"To be a TCM physician, you need a physician's qualification certificate, which I don't have yet," Wan Yun Ting shook his head and continued eating the fried noodles.
"Is that so."
Su Ke'er frowned, then excitedly continued, "Then I can ask Sister Jiang for help! Her grandfather is the dean of the TCM department. If he can issue you a certificate, you can apply for a physician's qualification!"
"Director Jiang from your Emergency Department!"
Wan Yun Ting was surprised. But thinking of Jiang Tongxin's serious demeanor, he shook his head and chuckled, "We're not related. Why would she help me?"
"Me!"
Su Ke'er patted her proud chest and assured him, "Leave this to me! I'll go find Sister Jiang right now..."
Watching her hurry out, Wan Yun Ting couldn't help but shake his head and smile, not paying it much mind.

"Idiot."
Chen Tao was furious, looking at Ma Xin, whose face was covered in bandages. He gestured with his hand, forming a circle about the size of a bowl, and cursed, "Tonight at the Wangs', that kid broke such a big tree with one punch. Do you think a few thugs you hired could defeat him?"
Ma Xin's face was etched with bitterness and grievance, "I didn't know he was that strong."
Chen Tao sat down, completely speechless.
"Mr. Chen, you have to help me get revenge." Ma Xin said pitifully.
"What? You want me to get beaten up by him too, and then call the police to have him arrested and jailed?"
Chen Tao raised his wine glass, exasperated by Ma Xin's stupidity. "To deal with Wan Yun Ting, you need to use your brain, not brute force. Do you understand?"
Ma Xin understood his meaning and asked, "What do we do now? Now that Wan Yun Ting is out of prison, he definitely won't let us off."
Chen Tao took a sip of wine, his eyes narrowing. "For the time being, keep a close eye on Wan Yun Ting. Report his every move to me!"
"Heh heh, I could toy with him back then, and I still can now!"
Ma Xin nodded. Then Chen Tao continued, "Now, call Zhang Li and Huang Dawei over."
Ma Xin was stunned and said urgently, "Mr. Chen, you don't think they..."
"Hmph, even if they had the guts, they wouldn't dare betray me!"
Chen Tao snorted coldly, his sinister eyes casting a dark shadow. "However, the only person I'm worried about now is Feng Le'an!"
Ma Xin nodded. Feng Le'an was the only loose end in the incident where they framed Wan Yun Ting years ago!
"After graduation, that kid disappeared. We haven't heard anything about him since," Ma Xin said.
"Find him."
Chen Tao glared at Ma Xin and said, "I can give him some money, but this matter must be buried with him."
"Otherwise, if Wan Yun Ting finds out, he might become the sole witness to this matter!"
"I understand."
Ma Xin nodded, "I'll go inquire about Feng Le'an's whereabouts tomorrow..."
The next morning.
Wan Yun Ting woke up promptly at six, changed into his cleaner's uniform, and after washing up, went straight to work in the Emergency Department. Old Zhang and the auntie were surprised but didn't ask him much.
Wan Yun Ting carried his bucket and mop and began mopping the lobby of the Emergency Department.
"Look, why is he still here?"
"Yeah, the dean didn't fire him?"
"Perhaps the notice hasn't come down yet."
The doctors in the Emergency Department pointed and whispered as they watched Wan Yun Ting mop.
After all, what happened the day before yesterday had already spread throughout the hospital. He had publicly humiliated the dean, the vice dean, Professor Huang from the capital, and all the doctors, and dislocated He Jianshao's right hand. He had completely offended the entire hospital.
"Wan Yun Ting, stop what you're doing."
The person in charge of the Human Resources Department walked over and directly told Wan Yun Ting, "Our hospital regulations state that criminals cannot work in the hospital, so you are fired."
"Heh heh..."
He Jianyi, wearing a white coat with his right hand bandaged and hanging around his neck, walked in, arrogant and smug. "Kid, don't think that just because you cured Kang Hongwen's mother, the hospital will keep you. Hurry up and pack your things and get lost."
Wan Yun Ting stopped his work and looked at He Jianyi expressionlessly. This outcome was within his expectations.
"Director He, you're going too far."
Su Ke'er walked over indignantly. He Jianyi glared at her, pointing to his right hand, and said angrily, "I'm bullying people? Clearly, he's the one bullying me! Besides, our hospital explicitly stipulates that those who have served time cannot be hired, and he's even a rapist!"
"You are..."
"Su Ke'er, if you dare talk back again, do you believe I'll make you roll out with him?"
He Jianyi pointed at Su Ke'er. If she weren't connected to Jiang Tongxin, he would have fired this girl long ago.
"Ke'er."
Jiang Tongxin walked over, and Wan Yun Ting also held back Su Ke'er, "It's fine, I'll leave."
"Then hurry up and scram," He Jianyi said arrogantly, glancing at him.
"You haven't paid me my salary yet."
Suddenly, Wan Yun Ting reached out and said with a smile to He Jianyi.
This made He Jianyi's face twitch. He said angrily, "You beat me up like this, and you still want your salary."
"That's a different matter."
Wan Yun Ting looked at him and said amiably, "I can help you heal your hand."
These words made He Jianyi's face turn ashen and tremble all over. He pointed at Wan Yun Ting with his left finger and angrily said, "Kid, you just wait. I'll settle with you later!"
Wan Yun Ting shook his head and ignored him. Finally, the head of personnel paid him his wages for the past few days. Wan Yun Ting took them and prepared to leave.
Then Jiang Tongxin said to him, "You want to take the physician's qualification exam?"
Wan Yun Ting paused and turned to look at her. Su Ke'er excitedly said, "Sister Jiang agreed to recommend you to work in the TCM department."
"Ke'er, you go back to work first. I'll take him to the TCM department."
"Okay!"
Su Ke'er happily winked at Wan Yun Ting and went back into the Emergency Department to continue working.
Wan Yun Ting didn't expect Su Ke'er to have actually persuaded Jiang Tongxin. "Director Jiang, thank you."
"Let's go."
Jiang Tongxin's expression was indifferent as she turned and walked towards the TCM department next door...
