"Brother Fan, you're really an external expert at Longgang Hospital? That's incredible!" Ma Jun's mouth hung open, staring at Chen Fan in shock.
Chen Fan smiled faintly and nodded.
For the other classmates, such a thing was equally hard to accept.
But these words came from the dean of Longgang Hospital, so they had no choice but to accept that it was all true.
"I knew it! Brother Fan was always a genius everyone admired in school. How could he be so ordinary after graduation?" Ma Jun said excitedly.
The classmates who had previously mocked Chen Fan now flushed and lowered their heads, feeling as if they had been slapped across the face.
"Dr. Chen, if you need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to come to me. I will do my best to help if I can," Lu Yunxiang said again.
"Alright, if I need anything, I will definitely trouble you, Old Lu," Chen Fan replied.
Then Chen Fan turned his gaze to Chang Qing, "Director Chang, you can't drink. You need to control yourself during this period."
Chang Qing quickly nodded, "Don't worry, Dr. Chen. I'm not drinking at all now. I had a check-up yesterday, and my condition has already improved by more than half! I don't think it will be long before I'm fully recovered. It's all thanks to Dr. Chen!"
Speaking of this, Chang Qing couldn't help but get a little emotional.
Chen Fan chatted with them for a few more minutes, and then Lu Yunxiang and the others left to go to another private room.
Chen Fan and his group returned to their original private room to continue their meal.
However, upon re-entering the room, no one dared to mock Chen Fan anymore. They sat there cautiously, afraid to make a sound, and the atmosphere became very oppressive.
As for Jiang Hao, his face looked as if he had eaten ten pounds of dead rats. He never expected that the deal he had finally secured would be gone just like that! His family's business would even be affected!
Thinking of this, Jiang Hao's gaze fell on Chen Fan, revealing a hint of anger.
"Brother Fan, that old man from earlier looked a bit familiar. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before," Ma Jun said, taking a bite of food, and asked Chen Fan with some confusion.
Chen Fan chuckled, "Of course, you're familiar with him. Remember those photos of famous people posted outside our classroom? You said you wanted to make them your idols and surpass them. One of them in the picture was him."
"Clatter!" Ma Jun's chopsticks immediately dropped onto his plate, and his expression froze.
"Class monitor, you, you're saying that old man was Old Lu Yunxiang?" a classmate exclaimed, his face filled with surprise.
"Yes, it was him," Chen Fan nodded.
"My goodness, I actually saw Old Lu just now! He's a leading figure in the medical community of the entire Huainan Province!"
"Class monitor, you actually know Old Lu?"
"As expected of the class monitor. Even after leaving school, you're still beyond our reach."
The classmates who had previously mocked Chen Fan now began to flatter him again.
"Brother Fan, I actually saw my idol just now and didn't even recognize him?!" Ma Jun looked like he was about to cry, regretting it so much he wanted to slap himself.
"It's okay, there will definitely be opportunities to see him again in the future," Chen Fan patted Ma Jun's shoulder, offering him some comfort.
That photo was taken when Lu Yunxiang was sixty years old, but now Lu Yunxiang was almost ninety. He had been hospitalized for so long, and his body had become much thinner and more haggard. It was normal for Ma Jun not to recognize him.
"What's so great about it? He just knows a few people," Zhang Chen, who had just been slapped by Jiang Hao, was already feeling unhappy. Seeing everyone fawning over Chen Fan again, he said with displeasure.
"My Brother Fan is now an external expert at Longgang Hospital! Don't just talk about our class, but the entire school, this has never happened before!" Ma Jun retorted coldly.
"Hmph, external expert? I wonder what methods he used to get it."
"What do you mean?" Ma Jun questioned.
"What do I mean? You know. He's just an undergraduate, do you think he has the qualifications to be an expert?"
Li Qiang's remark caused everyone to start discussing again.
After all, Chen Fan was too young. No matter how you looked at him, he didn't seem like someone who could be an expert.
"Class monitor, you need to be down-to-earth. If you're exposed, you'll be doomed," Jiang Hao said coldly.
"Jiang Hao is right. Class monitor, learn more from Jiang Hao. Look at him, at the same age, he's already beyond all of us," Li Qiang echoed.
Ma Jun couldn't help but laugh, "Yes, he's truly beyond all of us. A ten-million-dollar contract just disappeared! And he still has the mood to sit here and eat. At least we can't do that."
"You!" Jiang Hao's face turned extremely gloomy, wishing he could slap Ma Jun to death right now.
"What? Jiang Hao, I'm praising you. Why are you so angry?" Ma Jun continued to taunt.
"Ma Jun, you're eating Jiang Hao's food and drinking his wine, yet you're saying these things. Have you lost your conscience?" Li Qiang questioned.
Ma Jun said with disdain, "Hmph, as if I care about it."
Li Qiang sneered, "Heh, Ma Jun, if it weren't for Jiang Hao, you wouldn't even have the right to enter this private room. This is a Michelin three-star restaurant. Do you think it's a small eatery outside where anyone can come in?"
Zhang Chen also reprimanded, "If you don't care, then why are you still sitting here? Get out quickly, or we'll call security!"
"Fine, we'll leave. Who cares? Brother Fan, let's go!" Ma Jun said with a cold face and stood up to leave.
However, Chen Fan remained seated, showing no intention of leaving.
"Brother Fan, let's go. Didn't you see they're asking us to leave? Why are you still sitting here?" Ma Jun whispered to Chen Fan.
Zhang Chen and Li Qiang burst into laughter, "Hahaha, Ma Jun, do you see? The class monitor is reluctant to leave."
"It seems the class monitor wants to continue eating."
"Of course. Even as an external expert, how much does the class monitor earn per month? How could he afford to eat here?"
Ma Jun looked at Chen Fan with some confusion, "Brother Fan, did you hear them? If we don't leave soon, they'll laugh at us!"
Chen Fan smiled calmly, "They are the ones who should leave, not us."
Zhang Chen said disdainfully, "Class monitor, what did you say? We should leave?"
"Hahaha, do you know this private room was booked because of Jiang Hao's platinum card, and we spent over a hundred thousand today? If we leave, are you going to treat everyone? Or are you going to find your dean and ask him to pay for you?"
"Knock, knock, knock." Just then, the door to the private room was knocked again.
"Come in," Jiang Hao called out.
The door to the private room opened, and a waiter respectfully walked in with a bottle of red wine.
Jiang Hao frowned slightly upon seeing the red wine in the waiter's hand, "We didn't order this bottle of red wine. Did you deliver it to the wrong room?"
The waiter quickly and politely replied, "This is a bottle of Romanee-Conti specially sent by our manager. It's worth eighty thousand yuan, and our manager said he'll be here shortly after he finishes attending to other guests."
The entire room was stunned! Eighty thousand yuan for a bottle of Romanee-Conti, they had never even seen it before! This restaurant was gifting a bottle to Jiang Hao!
"My God, Jiang Hao has too much influence! A Michelin restaurant is gifting a bottle of Romanee-Conti!"
"That's Romanee-Conti. I've only seen it on TV."
"Eighty thousand yuan a bottle, I might not even earn that much in a year."
"Forget a year, I might not earn that much in two years!"
Jiang Hao's expression finally improved. He looked at Chen Fan with disdain, wanting to show Chen Fan the gap between them!
