The next day was Monday, and early in the morning, just as the clock struck seven, Su Xiaonuan, who was nestled in his arms, pulled Shen Qiang out of bed without explanation, and the helpless Shen Qiang embraced her slim waist, saying, "Let me sleep for five more minutes."

Su Xiaonuan pouted and said, "I think you've really gone mad with playing. Don't forget, you're supposed to report for work at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital today. This is a great opportunity for you to showcase your medical skill and prove yourself. If you miss it, you'll never get another chance."

Shen Qiang sighed helplessly.

For the once ambitious Shen Qiang, working at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital would have been the absolute peak of his life.

But ever since his fateful encounter with the mystical, as his cultivation grew and his perspective broadened, the Medical University Affiliated Hospital had ceased to be an object of pursuit in Shen Qiang's heart.

A salary of several thousand to tens of thousands a month held no appeal to him.

As for medical techniques, aside from the new technologies, there was nothing there that attracted Shen Qiang.

Earning little and still having to follow all sorts of rules and regulations every day.

Honestly, right now Shen Qiang didn't want to work there at all.

Seeing Shen Qiang seemingly devoid of fighting spirit, Su Xiaonuan said with feigned annoyance, "Hey, what are you up to, looking so listless? Bikang had offered you very generous terms to keep you, but you refused. Now what are you doing, moping around?"

Shen Qiang smiled and tightened his hold around Su Xiaonuan's slender waist, saying, "I've taken over a shop on Antique Street. In a little while, when it opens, I'll be making money at a rate countless times faster than working at the hospital."

Su Xiaonuan furrowed her brows and asked, "Don't you want to be a doctor anymore?"

Shen Qiang was silent for a moment before responding, "I definitely want to be a doctor, as medical skill is the foundation of my life. But the thought of a probationary salary of a few thousand a month really saps my enthusiasm."

Looking at Shen Qiang, whose eyes seemed a bit lost, the charming Su Xiaonuan playfully rolled her eyes at him, "It's okay if you don't want to work at the Medical University Affiliated, but you should at least go and see what level you're really at."

"Compare yourself to those elite doctors to find out whose medical skill is more impressive, yours or theirs. If by then, you're sure you don't want to be a doctor, then resign. But you can't just have studied for so long, got through the internship, and then just give up, can you?"

Shen Qiang said helplessly, "Alright, I hope the Medical University Affiliated Hospital won't bore me to death."

After getting up and quickly getting ready, Shen Qiang made a simple breakfast in the kitchen.

After all, it wasn't just him and Su Xiaonuan at home now, but also a doll clothing expert specially engaged in making garments for cicadas.

After a quick breakfast, Su Xiaonuan went off to work. After leaving some instructions for the cicada, Shen Qiang headed for the Medical University Affiliated Hospital.

The Medical University Affiliated Hospital was not only one of the top three hospitals in Provincial City, but also a top-tier, reputable, large hospital nationwide.

Upon arrival, Shen Qiang went to the HR department to report.

After handling some simple onboarding procedures, the HR department directed Shen Qiang to General Surgery.

Entering the office of the deputy director of General Surgery, Shen Qiang immediately saw the elderly deputy director, who was peering over his glasses at a notebook on his desk. He appeared not to have given Shen Qiang a second glance, and simply said indifferently, "Take a seat over there. I'm a bit busy right now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang quickly scanned the office and spotted the other doctors who had come to report.

Aside from himself, there were a total of six people, four men and two women.

One of the women was dark and thin, her face as small as a palm, looking like an underdeveloped, crooked melon, cracked jujube.

The other woman, however, was strikingly bright.

Not only was she very pretty, but her figure was also very full, making her a somewhat chubby beauty. Because she was quite tall, even though she was a bit overweight, she looked well-proportioned.

Aside from the two of them.

Among the other four men, the oldest looked to be around thirty-three or thirty-four. He had a chiseled face, a dark stubbly beard, and appeared very capable. There was a fierce aura emanating from him from head to toe.

At first glance, he didn't look like the detail-oriented surgeon that he was but rather like a rough-and-tumble bruiser from the streets.

Especially when sitting next to him was a man dressed in a white short-sleeved shirt tucked into his high-waisted pants, making him look very unsophisticated and somewhat wooden, his fierce aura became even more pronounced.

Aside from the two of them.

When Shen Qiang turned his gaze to the remaining two, his heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

One had a round face, thick lips, small eyes, and was about 165 centimeters tall. Not only were his eyes exceptionally bright, but the corners of his mouth bore a mocking smile. Furthermore, almost the moment Shen Qiang noticed him, he could sense a stream of True Qi being retracted into his body.

"A cultivator!"

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up immediately.

Almost simultaneously, sitting next to the chubby man was a man of a similar age to Shen Qiang, tall and slender with pale skin and a pair of hands that could make women envious. His gaze was just as cold, full not only of hostility but Shen Qiang could also clearly feel the True Qi lingering around him.

Very powerful!

In terms of the strength of True Qi alone, both the chubby and the thin men had higher cultivation levels than Shen Qiang.

But, thinking they could intimidate Shen Qiang with just that was clearly wishful thinking on their part.

At this moment, since all the seats were taken except for the one between the chubby and the thin man, Shen Qiang naturally walked over and was about to sit down when.

The slender man with pale skin and enviable slender hands raised one and, after opening his laptop, placed it on the seat.

Then he brazenly started playing medical news.

This made Shen Qiang frown, "Can you put away your computer?"

Without even looking at Shen Qiang, the slender man coldly said, "You'd better stay away from me, because I hate the stink on you."

At this, the others in the room couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Having just showered that morning and changed into fresh clothes, Shen Qiang laughed.

Smack!

Shen Qiang sat down right on his laptop. Not only did he crack the screen, but the keys underneath his bottom kept clicking incessantly as the laptop beeped continuously.

The thin man's eyes went wide with rage, but before he could act.

The deputy director of General Surgery, who had been acting as if he hadn't noticed their squabble, suddenly spoke up, "Since everyone is here, let me put it simply. Without a doubt, all seven of you are exceptional surgeons."

"However, the hospital has laid down strict rules that only three of the seven can stay. The four that fail must leave. In addition to the various medical skills assessments, my comments are an important reference. So, I warn you, you'd best not engage in any trivial antics under my watch, because we have no need for anyone incapable of teamwork."
