Chapter 292: Chapter 292: Chen Kuishou?

"Sister Bing, it’s getting late, I should head back now. Tomorrow I’ll speak with the hospital leadership, and judging by your current condition, you should be able to resume your position at any time."

Lin Dong said with a smile.

Qiao Bing nodded. Indeed, given her current state, there wouldn’t be a problem for her to work.

Although Lin Dong was revered as Master Lin, the hospital leaders might not be aware of it. Would they grant him this courtesy?

But Qiao Bing wasn’t overly worried, convinced that things would straighten themselves out once they got to that point.

As Lin Dong was about to leave the door, Qiao Bing summoned her courage and called out,

"Wait a minute."

Lin Dong stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked,

"Sister Bing, is there something else?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than he was stunned to find his mouth obstructed.

He felt a cool warmth spread over his lips!

He had been forcefully kissed by Qiao Bing!

Lin Dong’s mind reeled, electrified by the sensation.

But before he could dwell on it any longer, Qiao Bing’s lips had already parted from his.

Her face flushed, she looked at Lin Dong with a trembling voice and said,

"I saw your lips were too dry, I was just applying some lip balm for you!"

Lin Dong wiped his mouth, feeling as if he had drunk a whole bottle of century-old wine.

"Cough cough... Your lips seem pretty dry too, and it’s getting late, the night roads aren’t easy to navigate. How about... tonight..."

"What about tonight?" Qiao Bing immediately asked.

Was he suggesting he would stay?

If he did stay, and he made some moves, should she resist?

Should she... give in to him tonight?

She didn’t dare to think about it.

Just kissing Lin Dong had already drained all her courage.

If Lin Dong stayed tonight and went further, she really didn’t know how nervous she could become.

She felt like she might lose her soul!

At the moment, she was so nervous she felt her heart might leap into her throat.

However, Lin Dong said,

"I’ll be your bodyguard tonight, guard the door for you, right outside here?"

Qiao Bing was stunned.

Then she glared at him and said, "This is the female doctors’ dormitory. If you stand outside the door, someone will probably call the police!"

"Alright, you’d better leave now. I also need to rest early!"

After that, Qiao Bing slammed the door shut with a "bang."

Lin Dong shook his head with a smile and then left the place.

Of course, he had just been joking. He had indeed considered staying the night, but it was clear Qiao Bing was not ready.

So, he had said it on purpose.

After Lin Dong left, Qiao Bing leaned her back against the door, shaken by the memory of her impetuous kiss.

"So, that’s what a kiss feels like. It almost took my soul away."

"And to think, if I were to engage in an act more intimate than a kiss with him, wouldn’t that be the death of me?"

As these thoughts reddened her cheeks, she dared not think any further.

...

Early next morning,

When Lin Dong arrived at the hospital, he heard the doctors and nurses buzzing about a certain matter.

"Today, the Hospital Director said that media reporters will be coming here, and we should all make sure to look our best."

"Media reporters coming? Why?"

"It seems that from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, a young leader has emerged, and they want to interview him for some publicity."

"Ah? I’ve heard that the Southern Sect of Chinese Medicine hasn’t produced such a leading figure in many years. Also, why do they want to come to our hospital for an interview?"

"That’s because, the person, seems to be in our hospital!"

"Is it Deputy Director of Traditional Chinese Medicine Department Chen Tong? He became the deputy director at the age of thirty, has superb medical skills, and is also the grandson of the ’Fire Cupping King,’ a famous doctor."

"I don’t know the specifics, but it should be him, right? Besides him, who else could it be in our hospital?"

"..."

This kind of discussion quickly spread throughout the entire hospital.

Liao Ming heard these rumors and eagerly went to find Chen Tong.

Chen Tong had been on night shift the previous night and had just finished treating a patient’s condition.

He then saw Liao Ming coming towards him, looking excited.

"Director Chen Tong, congratulations!"

Chen Tong looked puzzled and asked, "Congratulations for what?"

"Ah?" Hearing this, Liao Ming hastily said, "You don’t know yourself?"

"Now, it’s spreading all over the hospital. It’s said that the Southern Faction of Traditional Chinese Medicine has nominated a young leader! Today, those well-known old TCM doctors from the Southern Faction will come to the hospital, and there will also be reporters and media people coming to interview..."

"Everyone is saying that the young leader of the Southern Faction’s Chinese Medicine is you."

Chen Tong also froze upon hearing this.

He really didn’t know about the Southern Faction Chinese Medicine nominating a young leader.

It wasn’t really his fault, mainly because he hadn’t been home yesterday or today and hadn’t seen his grandpa, who naturally hadn’t told him about it.

Otherwise, as the grandson of the ’Fire Cupping King’ and also in the field of Chinese Medicine, how could such a big thing happen without his knowledge?

But logically, it shouldn’t be me!

I’m simply not qualified.

Even though he was somewhat arrogant, he felt that he didn’t deserve that position.

The position of young leader for the younger generation of the Southern Faction’s Chinese Medicine was crystal clear to him in its significance.

But then, he thought of something else, the upcoming Medical Competition between the Southern and Northern factions.

"Could it be that, because of this Medical Competition, someone needed to be selected? So, thus those seniors took it upon themselves to choose me?"

Thinking this, he quickly took out his phone and made a call to his grandpa, wanting to confirm the situation.

"Grandpa, I want to ask you about something!"

Once the call was connected, Chen Tong got straight to the point.

The ’Fire Cupping King’ on the other end seemed to be in a great mood today; he didn’t wait for Chen Tong to ask and took the initiative by saying, "Grandson, I was just about to call you to tell you about a wonderful surprise!"

"A wonderful surprise?" Hearing this, even Chen Tong was excited.

Surely it’s as I thought!

The surprise grandpa wants to tell me must be that the seniors have appointed me as the young leader!

With this thought, Chen Tong couldn’t help but smile and then replied, "Alright, Grandpa, I already know what the surprise you are talking about is!"

"You know?" The ’Fire Cupping King’ was startled; he had wanted to tell his grandson Chen Tong that the Southern Faction of Chinese Medicine now had a chief.

And it was right within his hospital.

When the time came, he wanted his grandson to meet Chief Lin!

He hadn’t expected him to already know about it.

Since he knew, there wasn’t much more to say.

"Okay, since you already know, let’s leave it at that. I’m very busy today, with a lot of work to do. I’ll see you at the hospital later!"

With that, he hung up the phone.

At that moment, Liao Ming eagerly asked, "So, Director Chen Tong, is it you?"

"Need that even be said." Chen Tong’s face showed a mixture of excitement and a hint of smugness.

Seeing this, Liao Ming, in his excitement, hurriedly bowed and gestured to Chen Tong:

"Xiao Ming is honored to meet Chen Kuishou in advance! Chen Kuishou, please don’t forget about me in the future."

"Haha, of course, of course."

Chen Tong waved his hand, his face twisting with laughter like a twisted pastry.
