The afternoon classes ended, followed by a one-on-one conversation time.

After Lin Jie finished discussing learning issues with Gao Yanhong, he said, "You can make your request now."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Gao Yanhong took out a set of images from her phone and handed them to Lin Jie, introducing, "Newborn, five months old, congenital heart defect."

Lin Jie examined the images carefully and found that besides the atrial septal defect, the baby didn't have a division between the left and right ventricles.

Congenital heart defects can be unique to each person and never develop according to a set script.

He returned the phone to Gao Yanhong and said, "Although this baby's heart defect is severe, the surgery is not very difficult."

"A chief-level surgeon at the Affiliated Hospital's cardiothoracic department could perform this surgery well."

"Are you sure you want to use this request?"

Excessive and excessive medical treatment is considered a common issue among the Chinese.

If possible, people might prefer to have the best doctor for even a cold or fever.

Gao Yanhong didn't hesitate to say, "I'm sure! Teacher, this child is just too young."

"Only you, teacher, can perform this heart defect correction surgery perfectly with minimal surgical trauma, ensuring it won't negatively impact the child's future growth."

Lin Jie accepted the compliment without any modesty, asking, "Is this your relative?"

Gao Yanhong shook her head and said, "No, it's my high school classmate's nephew."

"Oh, is he your boyfriend?" Lin Jie seemed to understand.

"Not yet!"

Gao Yanhong blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.

Lin Jie slightly shook his head, thinking that this was a girl silently driven by the haze of love.

"Since you insist, I'll take on this surgery."

Lin Jie agreed and added, "Coincidentally, I promised to do an on-site guidance session in the cardiothoracic department."

"The difficulty of this heart defect correction surgery is moderate, so it can be used as a live teaching surgery."

"Thank you, teacher, thank you, teacher!" Gao Yanhong thanked him repeatedly!

Lin Jie walked out of the office building; it was already close to midnight. Just as he got into the car, he received a call from An Kexin.

Lin Jie casually asked, "Kexin, why haven't you gone to bed this late? It's beauty sleep time now."

An Kexin snorted lightly and said, "I rarely go to bed before eleven in the past year. You, of all people, should know how much I..."

"What, are you complaining that I'm older and look older than you?"

Lin Jie rolled his eyes helplessly. How do women make such wild connections?

He hurriedly said, "In my heart, you'll always be eighteen, as radiant as a flower!"

An Kexin hummed contentedly and said softly, "Today, my father and I hosted an inspection team from the military. We took them to the hospital construction site for an on-site investigation!"

"They said they would adopt a regular rotation method, assigning two to four experienced military doctors to be stationed at the trauma research center long-term."

An Kexin spoke in a cheerful tone: "Our side will provide the research center with intern doctors and nurses. Additionally, based on the center's operation, they will allocate several million in research funds annually!"

Lin Jie chuckled, "This so-called research funding is definitely the medical expenses for treating injured soldiers."

An Kexin giggled and said, "Of course, I knew that."

"But this means that once our hospital is operational, we'll have a steady stream of patients!"

"It's always better to be busy than to be idle."

Lin Jie sighed, "This is probably what they call 'performing the duties of your office once you're in the position.'"

"We doctors always hope for fewer patients, while you, as a manager, want the hospital to be overcrowded."

"Ah Jie, don't forget, you're also a shareholder in the hospital."

An Kexin reminded him with a tone, then continued, "I heard that today, Dean Cheng and Dean Yuan sternly issued a warning during the morning meeting."

"The two deans forbade anyone from interfering with you or your research projects, safeguarding your research topics."

"Ah Jie, take it easy, Anlin Hospital is just about to become operational within a year."

Lin Jie somewhat understood her underlying message, smiling as he asked, "Are you worried that I'm going to run out of ideas, my creativity exhausted?"

Without waiting for An Kexin's response, he confidently said, "My brain only gets sharper with use, and more and more ideas will keep popping up."

An Kexin retorted, "I certainly believe that. It's just that your project with my uncle hasn't concluded, yet you're starting another project now..."

She expressed her concern: "You still have to teach and do surgeries from time to time. Ah Jie, don't overwork yourself."

An Kexin eagerly suggested, "Why don't you stop teaching students on behalf of my uncle? I know he's quite leisurely these days!"

Lin Jie couldn't help but laugh.

Perhaps this is what they mean by girls being outwardly emotional; she just confirmed the relationship and wants to 'sell' off Chen Shi.

"Teaching is not just at your uncle's request; I also need teaching to help sort through the knowledge in my mind."

Lin Jie explained, suddenly asking, "My memory was a bit hazy last night; did anything interesting happen?"

An Kexin snorted and said, "It's interesting for you to say that. The party hadn't even been going for half an hour before you drank yourself to sleep."

She chided him, then continued, "Nothing special happened, just your two guardians, Xiaoxiao and Miaomiao, sat me down for a serious talk."

"What did they talk to you about?" Lin Jie asked with great interest.

An Kexin replied in a light tone, "They didn't talk about much, just reminded me, in the capacity of your sister and little sister, to take good care of you, care for you, and not let you be sad."

What An Kexin described lightly, though, was actually a very serious two-on-one scene last night.

Especially Lin Miao, who treated Lin Jie like a fragile doll, solemnly warning An Kexin to take good care of Lin Jie and not let him be sad.

Zhang Xiaoxiao also earnestly advised, "Ah Jie has always lacked various kinds of love since childhood. Though he appears strong, he's particularly fragile emotionally."

"Although breakups are normal in this society, I can sense Lin Jie's attachment to you is different."

"In case, and I'm saying in case, you break up with Ah Jie, you have to handle it well. If you hurt Ah Jie deeply..."

Zhang Xiaoxiao threatened, "Ah Jie is like my own brother, and if anyone makes him unhappy, I'll make them unhappy!"

"Exactly!"

Lin Miao added fiercely, "My brother and I depend on each other. My brother can do anything for me, and I'm not afraid of anything, not even arson and murder!"
