Chapter 916: Chapter 915: Ambiguous Strawberry Mark
The next morning, Wen Chi got up early, and Gu Huanhuan, not one to oversleep, thought about Wen Chi starting his first day at work. Being his wife, she definitely wanted to offer some encouragement, so she also got up early to help him prepare his shirt and trousers for work.
Since Wen Chi had a meeting that morning, Gu Huanhuan refrained from asking him for a ride, and she had to shoot an advertisement, which was not on the way.
When Wen Chi arrived at the office with his briefcase, his colleagues suddenly stood up and applauded, “Welcome back, Dr. Wen!”
Wen Chi nodded to everyone, suddenly feeling a bit moved. Having been away for a few days, everything seemed a bit different.
At 8:30 in the morning, the obstetrics and gynecology department at Central Hospital held its routine morning meeting.
The doctors, all dressed in white coats, filled every seat, with the department head, Wang Lei, at the center.
He first summarized the basic situation of the department from the previous week, then detailed the medical dispute involving Wen Chi, revealing the truth: the issue lay with the patient herself and had nothing to do with the hospital. Finally, he welcomed Wen Chi back, stating that everyone could now strive forward together again.
As they had said over the past few days, “Days without Dr. Wen are lonely ones.”
Wen Chi, sitting next to director Wang Lei, nodded to everyone. However, during this, many eyes were measuring him up, each expression strange and somewhat ambiguous, but no one dared to say anything.
Wen Chi realized this issue, but he attributed it to the curiosity from his colleagues due to his absence for a few days.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
After the meeting, Wang Lei called Wen Chi aside.
Wang Lei’s face turned a rare shade of red, and he coughed a couple of times, “You’ve gotten used to lounging at home, now you need to focus on work and pay attention to your appearance—it doesn’t look good to wear this kind of thing around your neck, right?”
Wen Chi was a bit slow to react, touched his neck, and then asked, “Where?”
“Um…” Wang Lei pointed at his neck, and in a flash of realization, Wen Chi remembered Huanhuan’s prank…
Instantly, his face turned somewhat red; he really hadn’t noticed, as he hadn’t looked in the mirror before leaving home today.
At the hospital, he always paid great attention to his image.
No wonder everyone’s gaze had been so ambiguous.
“I understand, I’ll be more careful next time.”
Having said that, Wen Chi turned and was about to leave, back to his own office.
“Hold on a moment, Dr. Wen.” Wang Lei suddenly placed a hand on his shoulder, “When did you get so close with Director Song?”
“Director Song? We just have a superior-subordinate relationship; we aren’t very familiar. Why do you ask?” Wen Chi was a bit puzzled.
“Because actually, the results of your case wouldn’t have been known so quickly if it hadn’t been for Director Song intervening and expediting it to clear your name,” Wang Lei always felt there was something off about it. Logically, Director Song was not usually so helpful or humble, and his readiness to step in this time was really puzzling.
“Perhaps he thinks I’m a talent and didn’t want to see me wronged unnecessarily,” Wen Chi smugly said.
“You cheeky kid, you really think too highly of yourself sometimes. But indeed, it was his help that mattered, and you should make some time to thank him,” Wang Lei felt that maintaining a good relationship with the director wasn’t a bad idea, especially as it could help when in need.
