31.I want to learn from you

Ye Xiu, however, was unaware of the discussions and thoughts of the doctors in the office. If he knew, he would probably find it somewhat amusing and exasperating. A distinguished double doctorate graduate from Oxford Medical School like him was being treated as a beneficiary by them.

As he stepped out of the office, he headed straight for the direction of the ward. After a brief chase, he finally caught up with Wang Yanchao and the others who were about to enter the ward.

"Director Wang!"

Seeing Wang Yanchao and the others about to enter the ward, Ye Xiu hurriedly called out.

"Dr. Ye, is there something wrong?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiu's voice, Wang Yanchao stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and upon seeing Ye Xiu clearly, his brows furrowed. He instantly felt overwhelmed by the thought of having these two beneficiaries in his department.

Yesterday, he had talked to the dean about the situation with Zheng Wenbo, but apparently, it had little effect. The dean was courteous to him, but when it came to Zheng Wenbo, he just casually advised him to mentor and guide him more, saying that young people were bound to make mistakes and should be given more tolerance and guidance. It left him feeling extremely frustrated.

While Wang Yanchao could tolerate Zheng Wenbo, if something really went wrong, who would tolerate him? Could patients tolerate him? Would the hospital leadership be willing to tolerate him?

As for mentoring, he was willing to do so. Medical skills were meant to be passed down after all, and he was quite open about that. But he could only mentor if Zheng Wenbo was willing to learn. However, he always put on an air of being a top talent who had returned from the United States and was unwilling to listen to him. What could he do about it?

"Director Wang, I would like to accompany you on rounds. Is that alright?"

Ye Xiu's eyes sparkled with excitement as he looked at Wang Yanchao.

"You want to accompany me on rounds?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiu's words, Wang Yanchao's brows furrowed, just like the other doctors in the office, he subconsciously felt that Ye Xiu was trying to please him, which he didn't appreciate.

The resident physicians, interns, and nurses who followed him also shared the same thoughts, looking at Ye Xiu with a look of amusement.

"Yes."

But Ye Xiu didn't seem to notice any anomaly and nodded eagerly. His eyes were filled with excitement; besides cultivation, nothing excited him more than improving his medical skills.

"Dr. Ye, you've just arrived at the hospital and probably don't have much to do for now, but you can observe the work of other doctors."

Wang Yanchao's face turned cold as he looked at Ye Xiu's excited expression. "It's more important to focus on learning medical skills and work."

Just as expected!

Listening to Wang Yanchao's words and seeing his cold expression, the resident physicians, interns, and nurses couldn't help but look at Ye Xiu with a hint of schadenfreude.

Hmm?

What does this mean?

Even if Ye Xiu was slow to react, he realized that something was wrong. The implication behind Wang Yanchao's words seemed to carry a deeper meaning.

But he didn't dwell on Wang Yanchao's intentions. At this moment, he didn't want to think about all that. His mind was focused on learning from Wang Yanchao. He didn't want to miss this opportunity. "Director Wang, I want to learn from you during rounds. I hope you can give me a chance!"

There was a hint of sincerity in Ye Xiu's gaze.

Learn?

He said he wants to learn from me?

Wang Yanchao was taken aback. He didn't expect Ye Xiu to say something like this.

The people around them were also surprised, and then they couldn't help but admire Ye Xiu's quick response and thick skin. This flattery was indeed top-notch!

But unfortunately, many predecessors had used this trick before, and it wouldn't work on Director Wang.

"You said you want to learn from me?"

Wang Yanchao's gaze turned to Ye Xiu.

Originally, Wang Yanchao was about to reprimand Ye Xiu sternly, as he despised such blatant flattery. But at the moment when the words were about to leave his mouth, he suddenly changed his mind. He felt that it might be a good opportunity to observe Ye Xiu, this ticking time bomb, closely.

Huh?

Wang Yanchao's reaction stunned the people around them. Normally, wouldn't Director Wang respond with a cold attitude at this moment?

Oh, right. They heard that this Dr. Ye was recruited by Vice Dean Zhao, and his relationship with Vice Dean Zhao was extraordinary. Director Wang probably didn't want to offend Vice Dean Zhao, so he was being polite to him.

"Yes, I learned yesterday that Director Wang is an expert in our department, with extensive clinical experience and superb skills. I hope to learn from Director Wang."

Ye Xiu nodded earnestly, his eyes filled with genuine sincerity as he looked at Wang Yanchao.

Hmm, what a flatterer!

The people around them marveled at Ye Xiu's flattery skills, but they also wore expressions of schadenfreude on their faces. They knew that Director Wang never liked such naked flattery.

Could this kid really want to learn from him? Instead of trying to curry favor with him?

Wang Yanchao's eyes flashed with a hint of disgust, but when he looked at Ye Xiu's earnest expression, he was slightly taken aback.

Forget it. Whether he genuinely wants to learn or has other motives, since he wants to follow, I'll let him. It's also a chance for me to observe him.

With that in mind, Wang Yanchao didn't say anything more. He nodded at Ye Xiu and then turned to walk towards the ward.

Director Wang didn't reject him, and he actually allowed him to follow?

The people around them wore expressions of astonishment and surprise. Since Director Wang didn't say anything, they naturally wouldn't say anything more to offend Ye Xiu, a person with connections.

After a moment of surprise, they quickly turned and followed Wang Yanchao's steps.

They knew that Director Wang was strict during rounds, especially the twice-daily rounds. They couldn't afford to be negligent.

"Thank you, Director Wang! Thank you, Director Wang!"

Realizing that Wang Yanchao allowed him to follow, Ye Xiu's face lit up with joy. After thanking Wang Yanchao twice, he eagerly followed along.

As the leading figure, Wang Yanchao heard Ye Xiu's thanks and saw his joyful expression. His demeanor softened slightly. At least compared to Zheng Wenbo, Ye Xiu's attitude was much better.
