Chapter 347 2nd in the whole province

Chapter 347 Second in the Province

"N-nothing...nothing," She Yong stammered. "Academician Hao said that this matter should end here, and that people should stop scrambling to get Ji Xiang to take your graduate entrance exam."

"..."

The people in the room stared at each other in disbelief.

What kind of talk is that?

Academician Hao is occupying a position without doing his job; he won't take it himself, nor will he let anyone else in the room take it.

That's what they said, but everyone present vaguely sensed that things were far more complicated than they seemed.

"Thank you for your hard work today, teachers." She Yong suppressed his surprise and began to wrap things up.

"The review process is complete. Please sign here."

The experts on the expert group realized that there seemed to be some hidden story. The ones who had initially started the heated argument fell silent and signed the papers as instructed by She Yong before leaving.

The water was too deep, so deep that they didn't even dare to try.

The music ended.

The crowd dispersed.

She Yong saw everyone off politely and courteously.

After watching the last person leave, She Yong collapsed onto the steps by the door.

"Young Master, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Tianbo asked.

"Tianbo, light me a cigarette." She Yong reached out his hand.

Zhou Tianbo was taken aback, but still lit a cigarette and placed it in She Yong's hand.

He sat silently next to She Yong, and waited until She Yong finished his cigarette before she said, "Tianbo, you didn't have any conflict with... Ji Xiang over there, did you?"

conflict?

Zhou Tianbo gave a wry smile.

What conflict could I possibly have with Ji Xiang?

One resident trainee is so arrogant and overbearing that, even after he's become arrogant, he's still intentionally or unintentionally pushing his own nose against him.

We still have to endure it.

"I'm asking you a question!" She Yong's tone suddenly turned stern.

"No," Zhou Tianbo said subconsciously. "My boss held a surgical competition specifically for me, and Ji Xiang won first place."

"Holy crap! Really!!"

"Really," Zhou Tianbo said. "He didn't mean to cause trouble. The head of the medical affairs department at the Second Affiliated Hospital 'casually' extracted a surgical video of a patient with massive hydronephrosis, and the boss praised it after watching it."

As he spoke, Zhou Tianbo paused slightly, his smile becoming even more bitter. "The surgery was really well done. I never expected that Dr. Ji's diagnostic skills were so high."

She Yong remained noncommittal, staring blankly beside Zhou Tianbo.

"Young Master, tell me what happened," Zhou Tianbo asked.

"Don't ask such nonsense," She Yong said mercilessly.

Zhou Tianbo was stunned.

A few seconds later, She Yong didn't say a word, but looked deeply at Zhou Tianbo, his eyes seemingly conveying an extremely complex meaning.

Zhou Tianbo didn't understand at first, but in an instant he seemed to realize something. He pretended not to know, laughed, and said, "Young Master, you've had a hard day. I'm going back now."

Get some rest.

The two spoke in cryptic language, and upon reaching the door, each with their own thoughts, they turned and left.

When the music ended and the crowd dispersed, Zhou Tianbo had seen everything he wanted to see, but he had even more doubts.

……

a few days later.

Zhao Jixiang sat on the sofa in the living room, while Zhao Tianjiao held his phone and checked his scores.

Zhao Jixiang appeared calm, but he could hear his own heartbeat echoing in his ears.

"It's not out yet?" Zhao Jixiang asked casually, having observed that at least ten minutes had passed since the query was completed.

"There are too many people logging in, I couldn't get a spot, it's really laggy." Zhao Tianjiao lowered his head and logged into the website again and again.

"Dad, I checked the answers when I got back, and I feel like I got at least 480!" Zhao Tianjiao comforted his father.

"480, that's quite high." Zhao Jixiang nodded slightly.

"Extremely high, okay! At least in the top five in the province!" Zhao Tianjiao said.

"Let's see the results first."

Zhao Jixiang picked up the water glass, the water rippling. He held the glass with his other hand to avoid revealing his nervousness.

"Really, the older he gets, the less promising he becomes," Zhao Jixiang chuckled.

I was more nervous about my son's grades than about waiting for the results to be announced.

Looking at Zhao Tianjiao, Zhao Jixiang felt relieved. His son was very promising; although he had laid out a smooth path for him, his son had exceeded his expectations at every step.

If I could rank in the top five in the provincial medical licensing exam, I would have a strong voice no matter what I said, and no one would have any reason to criticize me.

"He's out!" Zhao Tianjiao suddenly roared.

Zhao Jixiang was startled, but he quickly composed himself and calmly asked, "What score?"

"502!"

Zhao Tianjiao jumped up excitedly.

502... That's incredibly high!

Zhao Jixiang suddenly felt relieved, and the tension from before vanished completely.

Last year, the highest score in the provincial professional medical exam was 497. I never expected my son to score 502!

The score was higher than expected.

A score of 600 is required to pass; a score of 360 is sufficient.

Before this, Zhao Jixiang specifically looked at the scores of the professional medical examination in the province over the past ten years. There were no scores above 500, and the highest score for the first place in previous years was only 499.

"My son has truly surpassed his father," Zhao Jixiang said, looking at Zhao Tianjiao with a kind expression.

With 502 points, ranking first in the province, he can do whatever he wants from now on. Those who question Zhao Tianjiao's published paper will likely be silenced by this province's top scorer.

"If only I could get first place in the whole country..." Zhao Jixiang thought to himself and laughed. This is what it means to be greedy after getting what you want; there's never a time in life when you're satisfied.

Being number one in the province would be great; being number one in the country is something I wouldn't even dare to dream of.

"Dad! Aren't I amazing?" Zhao Tianjiao asked proudly.

"Not bad," Zhao Jixiang said calmly.

He picked up his phone and dialed the number of the director of the Science and Education Department.

"I'm sure I'll be number one in the province. No one in the province has ever scored over 500 points in all these years," Zhao Tianjiao said confidently.

Zhao Jixiang didn't speak, but checked the information first.

As he listened to the music on the other end of the phone, he quickly pondered what he could do with this if he were ranked first in the province.

Zhao Jixiang was confident that he could write a beautifully written article.

"Congratulations, Dean Zhao!"

The call connected, and the voice of the director of the Science and Education Department came through.

"Hehe, you're at work." Zhao Jixiang asked knowingly.

"Yes, yes," said the director of the Science and Education Department. "Today is the day the professional medical exam results are released, so I'm definitely here."

"Tianjiao did well on the exam. What was your ranking in the province?" Zhao Jixiang asked.

"Tianjiao is truly amazing! Dean Zhao, congratulations!"

"What's your ranking in the province? Do you have the data?" Zhao Jixiang sensed something was off, his smile faded, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Second in the entire province!"

Zhao Jixiang was slightly disappointed, but still very happy.

Actually, there are differences between the first and second, but for me, they are about the same.

"Which hospital is the first one? The First Affiliated Hospital?" Zhao Jixiang asked casually.

"..." There was silence on the other end of the phone.

A bad feeling arose in Zhao Jixiang's mind as a figure appeared before him.

"I'm asking you a question," Zhao Jixiang said sternly.

"Dean Zhao, it's Ji Xiang."

What score would he give it?
