Zhao Lidong sneered, "Early? I just don't want Miss Mo to be deceived by a scoundrel like you again."
"And to let everyone know your true face as a scumbag sooner."
Especially seeing Chen Mo's furious yet helpless state, Zhao Lidong felt a surge of pleasure!
Now, he only needed to wait for Jiang Hongwen to announce the test results.
However, after waiting for a moment, Zhao Lidong was surprised to find Jiang Hongwen beside him frozen on the spot, staring at the examination report in his hand with disbelief.
"Vice President Jiang, hurry up and announce the results," Zhao Lidong urged.
Jiang Hongwen finally came back to his senses, looked around, and found everyone's gaze fixed on him.
"The report shows that Old Master Mo's lung cancer has been cured!"
Zhao Lidong immediately pointed at Chen Mo excitedly, "Did you hear that? It's cured!"
But in the next second, Zhao Lidong realized something was wrong and asked with a look of horror, "Vice President Jiang, what did you just say?! It's, it's cured?!"
A ripple of astonishment swept through the crowd.
Even Old Master Mo looked surprised upon receiving the results.
"That's right, the report indicates that Old Master Mo's lung cancer has been completely cured!" Jiang Hongwen replied with certainty.
He also knew that Old Master Mo's examination results were handled by specialized personnel, and no one would dare to tamper with them.
"This, how is this possible!" Zhao Lidong was stunned, staring at Chen Mo with wide eyes.
Chen Mo retorted, "Director Zhao, with your expression, do you perhaps not want Old Master Mo to be cured?"
"Don't talk nonsense," Zhao Lidong panicked.
He argued, "Moreover, perhaps Old Master Mo was already cured long ago, and you just got lucky!"
Upon hearing this, many people agreed.
After all, they would rather believe that the hospital had cured Old Master Mo than to believe that Chen Mo had cured such an incurable disease with just a few needles and some traditional Chinese medicine.
Jiang Hongwen also hoped this was the case and eagerly grabbed Old Master Mo's hand, "Mr. Mo, congratulations! Your lung cancer has finally been cured after treatment! I am truly happy for you!"
"Chen Mo is also quite good. After all, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to discover that you were already cured, Mr. Mo."
Jiang Hongwen subtly mentioned Chen Mo.
Chen Mo found it laughable.
His own merit was snatched away by Jiang Hongwen's single sentence!
"Yes, this shows that our hospital's treatment level in this area is excellent, far exceeding international medical standards," Zhao Lidong said smugly.
As he was Old Master Mo's attending physician, this was also a joyous occasion for him.
"The level of shamelessness in your hospital is truly astonishing," a woman suddenly spoke up.
Old Master Mo's expression was also not good. As the person involved, he naturally knew who had cured his illness.
Jiang Hongwen chuckled awkwardly, "As I said earlier, Chen Mo certainly deserves credit for this. How about this, starting today, Chen Mo will be officially hired as a doctor at Longhua First Hospital!"
"What?!"
This time, Zhao Lidong was anxious.
"Vice President Jiang, there are limited spots for permanent positions each year."
Jiang Hongwen said, "You have a spot, don't you? Give this spot to Chen Mo. We must keep such talent in our hospital."
"But!"
Before Zhao Lidong could finish speaking, Jiang Hongwen waved his hand, "No buts, this matter is settled!"
Zhao Lidong was dumbfounded. He had intended to give this spot to Su Mei!
If Su Mei found out that her spot had been inexplicably given to Chen Mo, wouldn't she fall out with him?!
Thinking of this, Zhao Lidong felt a prickle of dread.
"Director Zhao, don't forget our bet," Chen Mo said at this moment, having been silent until now.
"Bet?" Zhao Lidong was taken aback.
He then remembered that he had just said that if Chen Mo could cure Old Master Mo's condition within an hour, all the hospital's toilets would be his to clean from then on.
Zhao Lidong's face instantly turned green.
"Chen Mo, Old Master Mo's recovery has nothing to do with you. Our bet is invalid!"
Chen Mo knew Zhao Lidong would renege. It would be strange if such a person kept his word.
Then, Chen Mo looked at the woman, "Miss Mo, didn't you say the Mo family could fulfill three of my conditions?"
The woman nodded.
"My first condition is to make him honor his promise." Chen Mo pointed at Zhao Lidong.
"Chen Mo! You're going too far!" Zhao Lidong pointed at Chen Mo, furious.
The woman glanced at Zhao Lidong, then at the confused Jiang Hongwen, and explained the bet.
Having navigated the world for so long, Jiang Hongwen understood the woman's intentions.
He immediately looked at Zhao Lidong and said, "Director Zhao, as the department head, you must stand by your word. You are fined one month of toilet cleaning."
"But, Vice President Jiang, I still have a department to manage and interns to guide," Zhao Lidong explained with a bitter face.
Old Master Mo spoke, "Vice President Jiang, I think it's quite good for Chen Mo to act in his stead. We should give young doctors more opportunities, don't you think?"
Jiang Hongwen quickly smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, we should give young people more opportunities."
He then looked at Chen Mo and said, "During this period, you will take over Director Zhao's position and act as head of his department."
Chen Mo was shocked.
He hadn't expected that this matter would not only give him a chance to become a permanent employee but also make him the acting head of the department!
"Vice President Jiang, this is absolutely not possible!"
Jiang Hongwen's face instantly turned grim, and he glared at Zhao Lidong, "If you think one month is too little, I don't mind making you clean for a year."
Upon hearing that he might have to clean for a year, Zhao Lidong instantly deflated.
His expression was as if he had eaten ten pounds of dead rats!
He could only glare resentfully at Chen Mo, wishing he could strangle Chen Mo with his own hands right now!
Jiang Hongwen chatted briefly and then left with everyone. Curing the Mo family patriarch's lung cancer, once publicized, would likely cause a sensation throughout Longhua City!
"Young man, oh, no, I should call you Director Chen now." Old Master Mo teased.
Chen Mo smiled awkwardly, "Please don't tease me, old sir."
"Do you have a grudge against that Director Zhao?" Old Master Mo asked.
Chen Mo nodded but didn't say much.
Old Master Mo didn't press further but instructed the woman, "Jingjing, you two should exchange phone numbers and communicate more in the future."
The woman was clearly taken aback but then exchanged phone numbers with Chen Mo.
"My name is Mo Xiaojing. The Mo family still owes you two conditions. Feel free to call me anytime when you think of them."
"Okay," Chen Mo nodded.
Even now, he felt like he was dreaming.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you lucky brat. You have a naturally cold constitution. If she were to become your Dao companion, your cultivation might be twice as effective in the future!"
Just then, the ancestor's voice echoed in Chen Mo's mind.
