This miracle doctor just wants to be fired!

Inside the laboratory.

Lin Wei quickly replied, "Thank you for the compliment, Teacher Zhang. I've been preparing for this project for quite some time, but I'm a little worried that the materials might not be perfect. I would appreciate your guidance."

Zhou Cheng then added, "Professor Zhang, she was quite nervous before she came because she knew you had strict requirements for project approval."

"Being strict is about being responsible for the project, and also about being responsible for these young people." Teacher Zhang smiled. "As long as the plan is reasonable and the materials are complete, I won't deliberately make things difficult. Zhou Cheng, you were meticulous and rigorous when you were working on your previous project, and now that you've brought your friend here, you've still given him special instructions. You haven't changed."

"Thanks to your help, Teacher Zhang," Zhou Cheng replied.

During his graduate studies, although Professor Zhang was not his supervisor, he had guided his research experiments and had a significant influence on him.

"It's all because you put in the effort." Teacher Zhang patted Zhou Cheng on the shoulder, then turned to Lin Wei, "I'm going to the administration building to take care of something. I'll be back in about ten minutes. We can discuss the project details then. You two wait in the lounge next to my office for a bit."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Teacher Zhang."

After watching Teacher Zhang turn and leave, the two went into the lounge next door.

Lin Wei sat down in the chair and let out a long sigh of relief: "Teacher Zhang seems much gentler than I imagined. I was so nervous just now that my palms were sweating."

"Teacher Zhang is strict on the outside but lenient on the inside. He's strict about projects because he's responsible, but he's very friendly to students and those who work with him on projects," Zhou Cheng explained. "Don't be nervous, just explain the project situation to him clearly according to your prepared plan."

A dozen minutes later, Teacher Zhang returned to the lounge.

The two immediately stood up and followed Teacher Zhang into the office.

Teacher Zhang took out Lin Wei's project materials, flipped through them page by page, and asked a few questions from time to time, which Lin Wei answered in an orderly manner.

Zhou Cheng sat quietly to the side, occasionally adding a few key pieces of information when Lin Wei hesitated.

……

"Finally done!" Lin Wei stretched, her face full of relief. "Thank you so much today. Without you, I would have taken a lot of detours and been nervous for ages."

"It's nothing, no need to be so polite," Zhou Cheng said. "Now that the matter is settled, how about I show you around the campus? It's a rare opportunity to come here, so let's relax a bit."

"Okay!" Lin Wei immediately agreed, her eyes full of anticipation.

Zhou Cheng took Lin Wei for a stroll around the campus.

Next, the two went to the lakeside at the school.

The lakeside is lined with willow trees. A gentle breeze blows, and the willow branches sway in the wind, making the lake surface shimmer.

Many students were strolling and reading by the lake, and some couples were cuddling together.

Lin Wei walked to the lakeside, picked up a small pebble, and gently threw it into the lake, creating ripples.

"The view here is beautiful." She took a deep breath and smiled contentedly.

"I think every university has a lake, right?" Zhou Cheng stood beside her, looking at the lake, a touch of nostalgia rising in his heart.

Although my time during graduate school was busy, it was also simple and pure, unlike now that I'm working, where I have so many complicated thoughts and struggles.

He turned to look at Lin Wei; the sunlight shone on her face, making her smile appear exceptionally bright.

By noon, both of them were getting hungry.

Zhou Cheng brought Lin Wei to the school's main cafeteria.

The cafeteria was crowded with people, and the food was plentiful and varied, including all kinds of stir-fries, noodles, and snacks, all with a wonderful aroma.

After lunch, the two strolled around the campus for a while before heading back.

……

When I got back to the neighborhood, it was already around 3 p.m.

Zhou Cheng didn't go out again. He stayed home with Xiaobai and read some books about electrocardiogram interpretation for a while.

This weekend is the semi-final of the electrocardiogram competition, and Zhou Cheng still wants to get as good a ranking as possible.

In the afternoon, Su Yi called him to ask what he was doing.

Zhou Cheng said he accompanied Lin Wei back to the main campus, and Su Yi made a sarcastic remark before hanging up.

These past two days, Zhou Cheng's work in the clinic has been very peaceful.

Zhou Cheng continued to work with Chen Xi and Li Yang in the emergency room. When they encountered ordinary emergency patients, they tried to let the two of them handle them. As for critically ill patients, Zhou Cheng handled them personally.

Chen Xi and Li Yang's growth rate is also amazing. This is the result of their hard work. They spend almost every day in the emergency department. Even when Zhou Cheng is off duty and not in the department, they will still take the time to come over.

……

The weekend arrived quickly, and the electrocardiogram semi-finals followed.

The semi-finals were not held at the school, but were moved to the academic lecture hall of the Municipal Medical Association.

Early in the morning, contestants from major hospitals across the city arrived at the venue one after another.

Zhou Cheng arrived ten minutes early, checked in, and found a seat near the front.

Looking around, the venue was packed with not only participating doctors, but also many medical staff and medical students who came to observe and learn.

A tense atmosphere filled the air.

Zhou Cheng had reviewed the details of this semi-final beforehand.

This ECG semi-final consisted of two parts: a theoretical written test and a practical interpretation test. The scores for each part were split equally, and the final ranking was based on the total score.

Zhou Cheng was very confident in his theoretical foundation.

During this period, I also made a special effort to study the difficulties and common mistakes in interpreting electrocardiograms. The professional books I had were worn out from being read so many times, all in order to be able to win the competition.

Most importantly, when he first entered the examination room, he glanced at the other contestants and found that most of them were at the proficient level in interpreting electrocardiograms, while a few were at the expert level.

As for master-level electrocardiogram interpretation skills like his, he hasn't found any yet.

Of course, Zhou Cheng could only see the attribute panels of some people; he couldn't possibly meet everyone.

……

The competition officially began at 9:00 AM.

During the written theory test, after getting his hair curled, Zhou Cheng quickly browsed through the questions and found that the question types covered the basic theory of electrocardiography, the electrocardiographic characteristics of common diseases, and many comprehensive analysis questions that combined clinical cases.

The overall difficulty level was significantly higher than that of the preliminary round.

But Zhou Cheng didn't panic. He picked up his pen and answered the questions one by one at his own pace.

When he encounters a question he is unsure about, he marks it down and comes back to it for careful consideration after completing the other questions.

The exam room was very quiet; the only sound was the occasional rustling of pages turning.

Zhou Cheng was engrossed in answering the questions, and the characteristics and related knowledge points of various electrocardiograms clearly appeared in his mind.

His thought process in answering the questions was exceptionally smooth.

He finished all the questions in less than an hour, and then spent another twenty minutes carefully checking them, correcting two minor errors, before getting up to hand in his paper.

After leaving the examination room, Zhou Cheng rested briefly in the corridor.

When I ran into my colleagues from the same department, we exchanged a few words about our experience answering the questions, and we all felt that the questions this time were not easy.

However, Zhou Cheng was not familiar with them, so he did not greet them.
