After lunch, Lin Jie took An Kexin and Lin Miao back. As they reached downstairs, they happened to see An Weize getting out of a car.

When An Weize reached the three of them, he said with a beaming smile, "Kexin, Lin Jie, Lin Miao, I've just received some really delightful news. Want to know what it is?"

An Kexin stepped forward, took An Weize's arm, and replied with a smile, "Dad, I also have some exciting news."

An Weize chuckled and said, "I hope it's not the same news, it would be wonderful to have a double celebration. I'll share my good news first..."

"Old Hu's stroke is much more severe than we previously understood."

"Although the Hu Family urgently invited an expert from abroad, they missed the best time for treatment, and Old Hu has now suffered severe after-effects!"

An Kexin couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Dad, is this true? How serious are the after-effects?"

An Weize nodded and smiled, "It couldn't be truer. The Hu Family hasn't deliberately concealed Old Hu's condition this time. This news came from friends who visited Old Hu at Kangning Hospital."

"Old Hu is now half-paralyzed, has slurred speech, and will spend the rest of his life on a wheelchair or bedridden."

Lin Miao said with satisfaction, "Deserved, serves them right! This is karma for them framing my brother."

Lin Jie had learned about this from Zhou Hongzhi a day earlier, but was distracted by subsequent events and forgot to tell everyone.

However, upon confirming the news from An Weize, Lin Jie was quite happy; he was not someone who would repay evil with good.

"Dad, let me tell you the good news I have!"

Like a little girl, An Kexin shook An Weize's arm and said excitedly, "Lin Jie has obtained his medical qualification and medical practice license. He's no longer practicing medicine illegally."

An Weize's eyes lit up as he looked at Lin Jie and asked, "What's this about?"

"Yesterday afternoon..."

Lin Jie briefly recounted what had happened the previous night.

Upon hearing the story, An Weize nodded with realization and sighed, "So that's how it is! What seems like a daunting task to us is just a matter of a word to those at a higher level."

He couldn't help but recall the elder Mr. Fu's advice, that with Lin Jie's ability, he would eventually succeed even without relying on the An Family.

This matter made him feel fortunate that the An Family had always maintained a good relationship with Lin Jie, intertwining their interests and making them inseparable.

"This is indeed a truly joyous occasion!"

An Weize couldn't hide his excitement and said, "From now on, Lin Jie, you don't have to hide your medical skills anymore. You can openly display them."

"This would dispel the doubts, suspicions, and concerns of many, attracting them to flock to you..."

He chuckled again and said, "If Old Hu hears about this, I wonder if he'll be so furious that he'll go from being hemiplegic to completely paralyzed. That would be quite something to look forward to!"

"Lin Jie, this is worthy of a grand celebration!"

"Kexin, let's organize a gathering..."

"Uncle An, there's no need for such a big celebration!"

Lin Jie quickly stopped An Weize and said, "I think it would be better to keep a low profile. I already have a lot on my plate and don't want to be caught up in a series of activities."

An Weize thought for a moment and said, "You've got a point there."

"One can imagine that once this news gets out, there will be a constant flow of people seeking medical advice, and many others trying to connect and build ties. However..."

With his excitement slightly subdued, An Weize regained his usual clarity and contemplated, "Lin Jie, this news is bound to spread gradually. At your level, you can't stay low-key even if you want to."

"We need to prepare in advance while there's still some downtime now!"

He continued thinking aloud, "Besides your driver and bodyguard, you also need a personal office and hire one or two people to manage your daily life, schedule appointments, handle bookings, and receive guests..."

Lin Jie was somewhat daunted and said, "Uncle An, isn't that too much trouble?"

An Weize chuckled and said, "Lin Jie, never underestimate how pervasive our people can be. Once some people latch onto you, it's like being stuck with chewing gum, impossible to shake off."

"Frankly, you're still young and inexperienced, easily falling into the traps of people's words or emotional appeals, hastily agreeing to or promising things."

"Having a few people to block certain issues for you can make your life much easier, allowing you to devote more time and energy to more important matters."

Although Lin Jie thought An Weize was making a big deal out of it, he also recognized that there was some truth in his words.

"Dad, you're scaring Lin Jie a bit!"

An Kexin gently shook An Weize's arm and said softly, "To many who know the situation, Lin Jie is already a renowned doctor. Now that he has the medical license, he simply doesn't have to perform surgeries in secret anymore."

She turned her gaze to Lin Jie and said softly, "Lin Jie, you're young and already a celebrated medical practitioner. Those who come to connect with you won't resort to underhanded means."

"They all hope that someday in the future, they'll rely on you to save their lives."

She then changed the subject, saying, "However, what my dad said about preparing for a rainy day is indeed necessary, mainly to handle the patients who come knocking on our door."

"Your time and energy are limited, while the patients, relatively speaking, are endless."

Lin Jie nodded slightly and said, "Uncle An, Sister Kexin, I will seriously consider your suggestions."

Just at that moment, Lin Jie saw his own Phaeton driving over, with an Audi following behind.

The two cars stopped one after the other in the parking spaces in front of the building!

Several people saw Qin Gang alight from the Phaeton, and a middle-aged military officer getting out of the Audi.

Qin Gang led the middle-aged officer to Lin Jie and the others, introducing them, "Dr. Lin, Chairman An, President An, this is General Meng Yang from the Department of Veterans Affairs, here specifically to discuss some matters with you."

"Hello, Dr. Lin!"

Meng Yang stepped forward, shook Lin Jie's hand, and warmly said, "Thank you for using your superb medical skills to heal Qin Gang's injuries. Qin Gang has made great contributions to the country, and his health has always been a concern for the military leaders."

"This time, I've come firstly to express sincere gratitude to Dr. Lin on behalf of the military leaders, and secondly, to discuss cooperation matters on behalf of the Department of Veterans Affairs with Dr. Lin and Anlin Hospital."

Lin Jie and An Weize exchanged glances.

An Weize spoke up, "In that case, let's go to the office for a detailed discussion! General Meng, please!"

The group moved to the chairman's office and sat down in the seating area.

Meng Yang spoke frankly, "Qin Gang's injuries were diagnosed by several military medical experts, and they were basically at their wits' end, suggesting only to maintain the status quo."

"Now that his injuries have been healed by Dr. Lin's miraculous hands, it shows that Dr. Lin's medical skills are truly astonishing."

He sighed, "To be honest with you, every year, the country has many soldiers who suffer serious injuries due to training or other reasons."

"These soldiers are national heroes and contributors, and we have always exerted our utmost efforts to restore their health, ensuring these heroes do not shed tears after shedding blood."

"However, human efforts are limited, and despite our good intentions, each year, many soldiers remain disabled due to serious injuries, or even sacrifice their lives!"

Meng Yang turned to Lin Jie and said, "On behalf of the Department of Veterans Affairs, I hope that with your remarkable medical skills, and with Anlin Hospital, you can contribute to the physical recovery of these heroes wounded for the nation."

Lin Jie nodded and said, "This is an obligation that cannot be shirked. Does General Meng have any specific suggestions?"

"Anlin Hospital is also obliged!" An Weize also promptly expressed his stance.

Meng Yang smiled slightly and said, "Our Department of Veterans Affairs hopes to cooperate with Anlin Hospital to establish a rehabilitation center for injured soldiers, led by Dr. Lin, to treat some of the most severely injured soldiers."

"Regarding the funding, the Department of Veterans Affairs will allocate it regularly."

An Weize's face showed joy; this was indeed a windfall.

In this way, there would be no worry about the source of patients, the hospital's profits would be somewhat guaranteed, and with the military-civilian cooperation as a brand, Anlin Hospital could also enjoy more preferential policies from the local government.

"There's no problem with such cooperation; our Anlin Hospital fully supports it!" An Weize hurriedly declared his position.

Meng Yang turned his gaze to Lin Jie and said, "We know that although you are studying at Binhai University Medical School, you are actually working in teaching and nurturing talent."

"The military hopes that Dr. Lin can provide some guidance to several young military doctors!"

Hearing this, Lin Jie frowned slightly.

Currently, teaching ten students already feels somewhat strenuous, let alone a few more?

In fact, even if there are several dozen more, that's not the issue; the point is that Lin Jie doesn't want to let things slide. He truly wants to teach a group of students well, hoping they will ultimately achieve something.

However, with the military as a banner and the call of duty for the nation and the people, it's really hard for Lin Jie to refuse.

"General Meng, my energy is indeed limited. How many military doctors are you planning to send over?"

Meng Yang responded, "Dr. Lin, we also understand the principle of valuing quality over quantity. The first batch we plan to send over consists of four young military doctors."

The first batch?

It seems the other party plans to treat this as a long-term task.

Lin Jie said softly, "General Meng, let me be upfront. You send people here, and I can teach. But if they don't meet my standards or follow my arrangements, I have the power to send them back."

Meng Yang said seriously, "On this point, please rest assured, Dr. Lin."

"These four military doctors were carefully selected and have undoubtedly solid professional knowledge. Since they are military doctors, first and foremost, they are soldiers!"

"For soldiers, obeying orders is their duty. You are their superior and can instruct them at will."
