Chapter 587 Announcing an Important Matter



"Chang Yufeng and Lin Wenhong, all of you shut your mouths!" Just as Chang Yufeng, Lin Wenhong, and the others started to scold Ge Dongxu, thinking this time he was definitely finished, Feng Yaping abruptly stood up, her face as cold as frost, and barked at them.

The meeting room instantly became quiet.

Everyone's eyes widened, unbelieving as they looked at President Feng.

"Director Ge, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I will deal with these people severely." While everyone was still in shock, staring at President Feng in disbelief, President Feng had already left her seat and walked over to Ge Dongxu, extending her hand to him with an apologetic expression.

"Director Ge!" Seeing President Feng's hand tightly clasping Ge Dongxu's, and hearing her address him as "Director," the previously unbelieving crowd now had their mouths wide open, their jaws nearly hitting the floor, completely dumbfounded.

What is going on here?

How does Ge Dongxu know President Feng? And why would President Feng address a young man as "Director"?

"Indeed, they must be dealt with severely!" Ge Dongxu nodded, then let go of President Feng's hand and walked to the center of the meeting room, to the seat representing the leadership position.

By this time, Tang Yiyuan had already stood up, pulled out a chair, and said with a look of guilt, "Sir, please have a seat."

Ge Dongxu had come to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital's internal medicine department to serve as a mentor to everyone, including Tang Yiyuan.

Since he was here to be a mentor, a role model for teachers, to be held in high regard, Ge Dongxu naturally would no longer be modest or unassuming. He nodded at Tang Yiyuan and then unapologetically took the seat that represented the leader.

"This…" As they saw Tang Yiyuan, a prestigious figure in Jiangnan Province's Traditional Chinese Medicine community, personally pull out a chair for Ge Dongxu and respectfully address him as "Sir," everyone in the meeting room inhaled sharply. As for Chang Yufeng, Xie Jingmo, Lin Wenhong, and the others, their expressions changed drastically, and their breathing became heavy.

By now, Chang Yufeng and the others had realized who President Feng and Dean Cai were here for.

But still, they couldn't understand why!

Sure enough, after Ge Dongxu sat down, President Feng took a seat next to him. At his signal, she slowly scanned all the people in the room, cleared her throat, and spoke in a solemn tone, "This is Ge Dongxu, Director Ge. I believe you have all met and recognize him. Today, Dean Cai and I have come here personally to announce an important matter."

"Starting today, Mr. Ge Dongxu is our university's distinguished professor and a visiting physician of our internal medicine department. His job is not to treat patients, but to be a dedicated mentor that we have specially invited for our internal medicine department."

As President Feng finished speaking, except for Tang Yiyuan, who looked excited, even Dean Cai, who had already been notified, could only manage a wry smile. As for the others, it needs no mention—they were all thunderstruck, then, all at once, the room erupted into chaos.

"What? President Feng, are you serious? This young man, not even fully grown, is supposed to be our mentor?" Chang Yufeng asked with a dark expression.

If things were really like this, it would be nothing short of a slap in the face and a humiliation for him!

"President Feng, I strongly object, even if you are the president, you can't make such arbitrary arrangements! What does he count for? Just a youngster, by what right is he specially appointed as a professor at our school, by what right does he get to instruct us in our medical skills? Among us here, who isn't a veteran in medicine with years of immersion, what qualifications does he have to instruct us? Isn't this a huge joke?" Lin Wenhong stood up abruptly, his face livid with rage.

"I object too! He has no right to teach us!" Vice Director Jia echoed.

"I object, he simply isn't qualified." Some of those who had previously attacked and slandered Ge Dongxu also started voicing their ugly opposition in protest.

President Feng, seeing the effort she had made to persuade Ge Dongxu to become a mentor, enabling Jiangnan Province's Traditional Chinese Medicine University and Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital to achieve a leap forward and truly promote the prestige of traditional medicine, was taken aback to find that, instead of appreciating her painstaking effort, these people started standing up and reproaching in protest, making her feel as if she couldn't hold her face up, and felt even more that she had let Ge Dongxu down, fearing that he might storm off in a fit of anger, her face turning iron blue as she was about to slam the table and curse.

However, before President Feng could burst out, Ge Dongxu held out his hand to stop her, his gaze slowly sweeping over Lin Wenhong and others, he spoke indifferently, "Rest assured, even if you wanted to invite me to teach, I would absolutely not instruct you in medical skills."

At this point, Ge Dongxu paused, his gaze continued to sweep over those who had not spoken up, including He Duanrui, and continued, "You all heard what President Feng just said, and the words of Director Chang, Director Lin, among others. I am indeed here to serve as a mentor and to teach medical skills, but I am certainly not going to forcibly be your teacher and insist on imparting my medical skills to you, which I believe are not so cheap. As President Feng has already mentioned, aside from Chang Yufeng and others who do not have the opportunity to choose, the rest of you have the right to choose. You all should decide now, the opportunity comes only once, so I hope you think it over carefully. As for me, I think you should now understand why I wanted to be an intern here previously."

Ge Dongxu's words echoed in the meeting room, and suddenly, it went quiet, only interrupted by the overlapping heavy breathing.

Many of those attending the meeting were associate professors, professors with high rank; each one, if not exceptionally smart, had at least above-average intelligence.

At the beginning, when Professor Feng announced the hiring of Ge Dongxu as a visiting physician for the internal medicine department, responsible for instructing the doctors in their medical skills, everyone had felt it absurd and ridiculous.

However, after the successive questioning and protesting, when Ge Dongxu's gaze swept over the crowd, urging them to choose carefully, when they calmed down and remembered the respectful and reverent attitude President Feng had exhibited towards Ge Dongxu, when they remembered that even a highly skilled doctor like Tang Yiyuan had personally moved a chair for Ge Dongxu to sit down and addressed him as "Mister"…

Could it be that both President Feng and Tang Yiyuan had lost their minds?

Remembering the rapid progress in Tang Yiyuan's medical skills over the years…

The deeper they thought, the heavier and more chaotic the breathing in the meeting room became.

Many among them were associate professors, professors of a high rank, well-known traditional Chinese doctors in Jiangnan Province; for them to listen to the instructions of a youngster, which to some extent was tantamount to acknowledging him as their master, seemed utterly absurd and laughable.

But the problem was, even Tang Yiyuan referred to him as "Mister," and if his medical skills were indeed sublime, the opportunity would only be given to those destined to seize it. If they missed this one chance, perhaps they would have missed an opportunity for medical advancement, to save lives and gain fame across the world.

But he was so young, could his medical skills truly have reached a transcendent level? That seemed utterly impossible.
