Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 515 - 514: Breaking the Surface with a Point
Ge Dongxu, accompanied by Tang Yiyuan, walked across the campus to the administrative building.
Along the way, many greeted Tang Yiyuan and looked at Ge Dongxu with curious eyes.
Upon reaching the president's office, Feng Yaping had already been waiting and was quite excited to see Ge Dongxu, holding his hand tightly for a long time before letting go.
"Director Ge, I am truly thrilled and honored that you could join our school as a teacher. On behalf of Jiangnan Province Traditional Chinese Medicine University, I thank you." After releasing his hand, Feng Yaping bowed solemnly to Ge Dongxu.
"Please, President Feng, if you do that, I won't dare to come." Ge Dongxu hurriedly said.
"It is necessary. Given your stature, our school should have held a formal appointment ceremony in the auditorium and hosted a banquet in your honor. However, you don't like such fanfare, so I can only show my sentiment in this way. It won't happen again in the future," Feng Yaping said earnestly.
"You are too polite, President Feng. Actually, I should thank you for giving me this opportunity. Let's sit and talk about the teaching matters now," Ge Dongxu said.
"Of course, Director Ge, please take a seat," Feng Yaping replied.
Ge Dongxu nodded and sat down on the sofa.
Feng Yaping personally brought tea for Ge Dongxu and Tang Yiyuan, and then sat down with them.
"Director Ge, Professor Tang and I have discussed your teaching at our school again. We feel that it would be underutilizing your medical skills to teach undergraduate students who lack a basic medical foundation. Additionally, given your preference for keeping a low profile, even if we assigned you an assistant professor title, your public lectures to undergraduates might still cause a sensation. We also worry that those students, lacking a strong foundation, might not fully grasp your teachings. Due to your youth and the title of assistant professor, they might even misunderstand your medical proficiency, which would be unfortunate," Feng Yaping carefully explained after sitting down.
"I hadn't fully considered that at the time. What do you and Professor Tang suggest?" Ge Dongxu reflected on the idea of standing on the lecture podium facing students who were either around his age or even older, and he too felt it might be inappropriate.
"Our suggestion is that you could perhaps still appear as a professor and chief physician, but in a limited scope, exclusively within the department of internal medicine managed by Professor Tang at Jiangnan Province Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. The doctors in this department are all involved in the university's research and teaching as well. If you pass your medical skills to them, and they then disseminate them further, not only would it have a ripple effect, but your medical skills would remain largely confined to the internal medicine department, so there wouldn't be too much exposure," Feng Yaping responded.
Ge Dongxu had initially considered the uproar his young age and titles like professor or chief physician might cause within the university and possibly even spread to other schools, which is why he had suggested a position like an assistant professor. He hadn't thought much beyond that.
Now, hearing President Feng's words, he felt that if he were to impart his medical skills on a small scale, there would be no issue of sensation, and even if there was, it would be contained within a small range. Under such circumstances, the title was unimportant.
"You have considered this more thoroughly than I have. Let's proceed as you suggested. I'm free on Monday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons this semester, and I will spend at least one half-day during these times in the outpatient clinic at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. I won't consult individually. There's no need to publicize my name. I will just observe and occasionally participate in consultations, during which I will pass on what I know about medicine," Ge Dongxu pondered for a moment before saying.
"That's exactly what I had in mind. I will adjust my clinic hours to Monday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons to match yours," Tang Yiyuan nodded.
"Let's do that then. I will start next week. For now, don't inform the staff in the department. Just treat me as if I'm an assistant you've recently brought in or a student, until I get to know the staff and the environment. Once I've removed anyone who doesn't fit, you can announce my role," Ge Dongxu thoughtfully added.
A doctor must have a kind heart, and naturally, he did not wish to pass on his medical skills to someone who only knew how to make money without possessing compassion. Therefore, before doing so, he needed to appear under a less conspicuous identity to better observe people's true nature.
After discussing the teaching arrangements, it was already noon.
President Feng insisted on treating Ge Dongxu to lunch, and he did not feel it polite to refuse her kindness, so they took Tang Yiyuan's car to Wanghu Hotel together.
The Wanghu Hotel is another high-end hotel by the side of Mingyue Lake, offering a dining experience with a picturesque view of the lake and mountains.

"Director Wu, are you really not giving me even a little chance?" At a private window seat in Wanghu Hotel, a beautifully figured and attractive woman asked Wu Longcai.
"Xiao Shanshan, it's not that I'm unwilling to give you a chance, but the show 'Happy Girl Voice' has just begun to gain popularity, and both Liu Manman and Wu Shiyi have done very well as hosts. It wouldn't be right to change hosts in the second season abruptly," Wu Longcai replied.
"Whether a host is good or not ultimately depends on whether the leaders give them opportunities. You were able to boost Wu Shiyi as a newcomer; why not me?" Xiao Shanshan asked, her tone now containing a hint of accusation.
"It's not like that. Wu Shiyi worked very hard and was also quite talented, which is why she became popular. If she hadn't put in the effort and lacked talent, giving her opportunities would have been futile," Wu Longcai answered.
"So what you mean is that I lack the talent for this?" Xiao Shanshan's beautiful face finally showed a trace of anger upon hearing this.
"Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean that. It's just that both Liu Manman and Wu Shiyi did well last time, and I have no reason to replace them in this second season," Wu Longcai replied with a wry smile.
"Director Wu, your words are too insincere. Whether it's reasonable or not is up to you to decide. Does it really need to be Station Head Guo who has to say something?" Xiao Shanshan's expression turned completely as she dropped the pretense of pleading and adopted a haughty tone.
It seemed that just mentioning Station Head Guo elevated her status entirely.
"Even if Station Head Guo spoke up, my stand would remain the same. I won't change the hosts for the second season without a good reason," Wu Longcai said, his expression changing slightly, but he quickly firmed his stance.
"You... okay, okay, Wu Longcai, you win! You win!" Xiao Shanshan had not expected her words to have no effect on Wu Longcai, and shook with rage. Abruptly standing up, she turned and left.
