Chapter 1197: Chapter 581: Vitality as Mighty as a Dragon, Yet Only Wishing to Be a Doctor (Part 2)

"Yes! Teacher, rest assured, I will handle it properly!"

Wei Zheng accepted the assignment joyfully, looking at Fang Cheng with eyes full of anticipation.

It seemed he was already envisioning working alongside this junior fellow in the future. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Just then, Li Zhenhua’s lively voice came from outside the door:

"Tea is ready! This is something I’ve treasured, Chengcheng and Ding Jian want to drink it usually, but I couldn’t bear to share."

"Squeak—"

The door was pushed open, and the old man came in carrying a purple sand tea tray.

His eyes swept across the faces of those present, noticing the relaxed demeanor of Shi Chengyi and Fang Cheng’s calm smile, he quickly sensed the change in atmosphere.

It was the ease and harmony of completing a task.

"How’s it going? Is the game of chess finished?"

Li Zhenhua placed the tea tray down and asked with a cheerful smile.

"Finished."

Shi Chengyi sat down again, took the teacup, and smiled with satisfaction:

"Not only finished, but it turned out to be a good game. Old Li, your grandson helped me resolve a difficult endgame!"

"Haha, that’s good, that’s good!"

Although Li Zhenhua didn’t know the details, hearing this made him very happy inside.

Next, the four of them drank tea while chatting.

Under Fang Cheng’s deliberate "guidance," Li Zhenhua sat back down at the chessboard and played another game with Shi Chengyi.

This time, the old man seemed inspired, finally achieving a narrow victory over Shi Chengyi, and was as happy as a child, unable to resist boasting.

Though Shi Chengyi lost the game, his face was equally full of smiles.

After the game finished, tea was enjoyed thoroughly.

Shi Chengyi didn’t linger and immediately stood up to bid farewell with Wei Zheng.

..................

The black executive sedan slowly started up, its tires rolling over the cobblestone road, smoothly driving away from the old street.

At the gates of the Li Family’s courtyard.

Li Zhenhua, Li Biyun, Li Dingjian, and Fang Cheng stood on the steps, watching the car disappear into the distance, each with different expressions.

"Ah Cheng."

Only when the car was completely out of sight did Li Zhenhua retrieve his gaze and finally couldn’t hold back from speaking.

He turned to his grandson, with a hint of urgency in his tone:

"What did Chief Shi say to you just now?"

Li Dingjian and Li Biyun immediately leaned in closer.

Three pairs of eyes fixed tightly on Fang Cheng, unblinkingly, as if waiting for an answer that would determine the family’s fate.

Fang Cheng glanced at their tense yet expectant expressions, and a warmth surged in his heart.

Then, he smiled and said in a relaxed tone:

"Nothing much, just that Chief Shi thinks my medical skills are good and specially invited me to participate in the Special Search Team’s spring recruitment second round, applying for a medical position."

"Second round?"

Li Zhenhua’s eyes widened like copper bells, and his breathing became slightly more rapid:

"Does that mean... you’ve agreed?"

Fang Cheng nodded to confirm:

"Yes, agreed."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Li Zhenhua excitedly said "good" three times, slapping Fang Cheng’s shoulder with astonishing force:

"I knew it, I knew my grandson Li Zhenhua was not an ordinary person!"

The old man’s face was glowing as if he was ten years younger, loudly saying:

"Tonight we’ll add dishes! Must add dishes! Ding Jian, go invite Old Xu and Old Wu from next door, and bring out my good wine that’s been hidden for ten years, we need to celebrate properly!"

"Dad, don’t rush to be too happy yet."

Though Li Biyun’s eyebrows and eyes showed joy, she habitually poured a bit of cold water:

"It’s just the second round, haven’t passed yet, not necessarily in. I heard from Chief Wei that the Special Search Team’s exam is as difficult as climbing to the sky, one in ten thousand..."

"What do you know!"

Li Zhenhua’s eyebrows shot up, immediately retorting:

"Minister Shi personally came to invite, how can it fail? In the story, this is called visiting the cottage three times."

"My grandson has talents like Wenqu Star descending to earth, Wuqu Star reincarnated, what is a mere exam!"

Li Dingjian also laughed along:

"Yeah, Sis, Ah Cheng is definitely on his way this time."

"Our family now can have someone working for the government, maybe even become a big leader in the future, this is a great thing!"

He looked at Fang Cheng’s heroic appearance, his eyes full of comfort:

"Our family can now have someone working for the government. The Special Search Team is a department of real power, perhaps future Ah Cheng could become a big leader, this is a great thing to bring glory to the family!"

Looking at the genuine smiles of his family and listening to the courtyard’s cheerful conversation, Fang Cheng stood in the sunlight and squinted his eyes slightly.

This was the most sincere expectation from family and also the thing he wanted to protect.

For the smile to continue, for such a peaceful and happy life not to be disrupted.

Even if it meant walking further on the path filled with thorns and killings, even if it meant wearing a fierce mask and traveling with evil ghosts.

He would, without hesitation.

"By the way..."

Just as preparing to head inside for tonight’s feast, Li Biyun seemed to suddenly remember something, paused, and hesitantly asked:

"Chengcheng applied for the graduate program at East Capital Law School last time, didn’t he?"

"The results haven’t been published yet, will it conflict with this Special Search Team application? If both sides admit, how would you choose?"

With this remark, the originally lively atmosphere slightly paused.

Li Zhenhua and Li Dingjian were also momentarily stunned, then turned to look at Fang Cheng.

Yes, the whole family had been worrying about this matter before.

Fang Cheng’s expression remained unchanged, calmly replied:

"The interview last time didn’t pass, I didn’t tell you as I didn’t want you to worry."

"Ah? Didn’t pass?"

The three of them exchanged glances in surprise.

For a moment, they didn’t know whether to feel regretful or relieved.

"It doesn’t matter if it failed!"

Li Dingjian was the first to react, casually saying:

"That’s a good thing, some law graduate program, you’d still have to work for others looking at their faces."

"Can it compare to the Special Search Team, a national powerful enforcement body? This is called ’losing a horse, how do you know it’s not fortune’!"

"Right, right."

Li Zhenhua nodded in agreement.

But then, the smile on his old face suddenly froze, his eyebrows furrowed, worriedly muttering:

"But... not passing even the school’s interview, will the Special Search Team’s interview... also..."

The elderly become anxious when concerned. Earlier praising his grandson as a dual genius of Wenqu Star and Wuqu Star, now upon hearing about the previous "failure" experience, he suddenly started worrying again.

"Dad!"

Li Dingjian amused yet helpless:

"Don’t worry nonsense, the Special Search Team loves talent and personally visited him, how could they reject during the interview? It’s just a formality!"

Having said that, he turned to Fang Cheng, winking:

"Be assured, Ah Cheng, with Minister Shi’s guidance, there’s definitely no problem."

"Right, right, my old head was confused."

Li Zhenhua slapped his forehead, straightened up with renewed brightness:

"Our family’s Fang Cheng is a scholar, schools are too small for such a true dragon, the Special Search Team is where he belongs!"

"Let’s go, let’s go, just now preoccupied with guests, haven’t filled our stomach, need to have more dishes, drink a few sips of wine."

Saying this, the whole family crowded inside.

Looking at his grandfather’s quick mood changes, Fang Cheng smiled and shook his head.

He chose not to tell the truth to his family but rather made up a kind lie.

Speaking of which, Dong Yunchuan, the professor, had not contacted him for quite some time.

It’s likely due to encountering resistance while handling the background check, perhaps facing consistent setbacks and hence being embarrassed to reply.

His father’s case involved wide repercussions and was a solid case jointly supervised by the Special Search Team and the police, ordinary people indeed find it difficult to overturn.

Only someone like Shi Chengyi with high authority from within could have the power to endorse it and move the political review forward.
