Zhu Shang and the other three exchanged glances.
This was their first day of internship at the psychiatric hospital, and they genuinely had no idea who Chen Fan was.
The anesthesiologist glanced at Zhu Shang and the others with amusement, finding it somewhat funny. However, he still said, "He is the head of surgery at the psychiatric hospital, Chen Fan."
"What?! He, he's really the head of surgery?!" Zhu Shang and the other three gasped in unison.
Just moments before, they had mistaken Chen Fan for an intern just like themselves.
Jia Xiaofei found it hard to believe, "This, how is this possible? He's so young, how could he possibly be the head of surgery?"
The anesthesiologist scoffed, "Hmph, so what if he's young? In that situation just now, if Director Chen hadn't intervened in time, you four would have been in serious trouble!"
Zhu Shang and the other three felt a chill run down their spines. The anesthesiologist was right; if Chen Fan hadn't acted swiftly, their careers might have ended right there.
At this moment, Zhao Qianqian approached the four with disdain, "You four are just this level, and you still want to teach Director Chen? Truly arrogant! Don't think you're so great just because you graduated from a prestigious university."
"Let me tell you, even a doctoral graduate from the world's top medical university was nothing in front of our Director Chen. In the end, they were kicked out of the hospital in disgrace."
After speaking, Zhao Qianqian left the operating room without regard for the shocked expressions of Zhu Shang and the other three.
The remaining tasks would be handled by other medical staff.
Seeing Zhao Qianqian also leave, Zhu Shang and the other three hastily followed.
Now, the four of them were extremely flustered. They knew they had mocked Chen Fan quite a bit before, even showing off in front of him. It was like showing off to a master, utterly overestimating themselves!
Chen Fan's calm and collected handling of the emergency situation had indeed stunned them.
Even their teachers, or some renowned experts, might not have been able to remain as calm and composed in that situation.
After changing their clothes, Du Zihui stood outside the changing room and asked nervously, "Do you think Director Chen will still keep us at the hospital?"
Jia Xiaofei shook his head, "I don't know. We've really embarrassed ourselves this time."
Yao Qingqing lowered her head in shame and apologized, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Zhu Shang sighed, "It's happened now, and it's too late to say anything. We can only leave it to fate."
With that, the four of them dejectedly opened the door and walked out of the room.
Outside the door, as expected, Chen Fan and Zhao Qianqian were standing there.
"Di, Director Chen."
Zhu Shang and the other three had lost all their previous arrogance. They lowered their heads and approached Chen Fan.
Chen Fan asked, "Do you know how many mistakes you made during this surgery?"
The four exchanged glances, none of them having an answer.
"We, we didn't keep count," Zhu Shang replied.
After all, it was a critical situation, and they hardly had time to count their mistakes.
Chen Fan calmly held up two fingers, "Twenty mistakes, ten of which were fatal. In other words, you have killed the patient at least ten times just now!"
"To put it in four words: you have more ambition than ability."
If it were when they first met, and Chen Fan had dared to speak to them like this, they would have certainly expressed their dissatisfaction and even argued with him.
However, having witnessed Chen Fan's medical skills, the four of them were now speechless, only able to lower their heads in shame.
Chen Fan instructed Zhao Qianqian beside him, "Take them to complete their onboarding procedures."
Onboarding?!
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Shang and the other three were shocked and looked at Chen Fan in surprise.
They had actually prepared themselves to be sent back to school. But they never expected Chen Fan to keep them.
"Thank you, Director Chen!" Zhu Shang and the other three said gratefully, their faces filled with joy.
Chen Fan responded, "You are just interns. Whether you can stay depends on your own efforts."
Glancing at the time, it was already noon. Chen Fan said, "I'll go back to pick up Director Qin first. You take them to familiarize themselves with the hospital environment."
After giving the instructions, Chen Fan turned and walked towards the exit of the outpatient building.
However, before Chen Fan could even step out of the outpatient building, he saw a girl rushing in from outside.
She ran straight into Chen Fan's arms.
"Ouch!"
The girl stumbled, almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, Chen Fan reacted quickly and grabbed her arm, preventing her from falling.
The girl was flustered and quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"
But as the girl looked up at Chen Fan, her expression froze. Her eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
"It's you?!"
The girl exclaimed. This girl was none other than the one who had meddled earlier and almost helped the scam group frame Chen Fan!
"It's you?" Chen Fan was equally surprised.
He said playfully, "I didn't expect us to be so fated to meet again so soon."
The girl regained her composure, quickly pulled her hand away from Chen Fan, and her expression turned displeased, "What bad luck, running into you again."
It wasn't surprising that the girl was angry. Because of Chen Fan, her electric scooter was lost, along with her wallet, identification, and even her internship notification letter. She had also gone to the police station to give a statement and had only just arrived at the hospital at noon.
"Luo Xixi?" At this moment, Zhao Qianqian's voice suddenly rang out.
"Hello, I'm Luo Xixi," the girl replied quickly upon seeing Zhao Qianqian.
Zhao Qianqian asked with a cold face, "What time is it now? Why are you only arriving now?"
Before Luo Xixi could explain, Zhao Qianqian continued, "Your internship qualification has been revoked. You should go back to school."
Hearing this news, although Luo Xixi had expected it, she was still very sad.
Seeing Luo Xixi's dejected expression, Zhao Qianqian consoled her, "From now on, no matter where you intern, you must be punctual. Don't worry, I won't report you to your school. We'll say you are not suitable for our hospital."
"Thank you," Luo Xixi bowed slightly, wiped a tear from the corner of her eye, and turned to leave.
She knew that the situation was as it was. Even if she explained, no one would believe her. As for Chen Fan, after the incident that morning, she had wrongly accused him. Given Chen Fan's petty nature, he would certainly not testify for her.
Even trying to explain would be a waste of effort. She could only leave now.
"Wait a moment."
However, at this moment, Chen Fan's voice suddenly rang out.
Luo Xixi frowned and looked at Chen Fan.
Since Chen Fan had already taken off his white coat, she didn't know his true identity and asked coldly, "What? Are you going to mock me now?"
