Chu Luo fulfilled his promise, and he really did finish examining every elderly person present before stopping.

The young man was exhausted; beads of sweat had begun to appear on his forehead.

Looking at Jia Bing, on the other hand, he was perfectly fine, so idle he was practically bursting with boredom.

However, he couldn't be happy at all seeing this situation.

The outcome of the competition had been decided the moment Chu Luo used the Breaking Tiger Needle Technique.

Chu Luo's performance utterly crushed Jia Bing, practically grinding him into the dirt.

Jia Bing was close to tears. He had thought Chu Luo was just a recent graduate, but who knew he was a hidden master?

With this level of skill, even the three deputy directors couldn't compare.

Amidst cheers and laughter, the free clinic came to a close. Chen Xiao promised that such free clinics would be held every month in the future.

The elderly people treated them like family, turning out in full force to send them off at the entrance of the nursing home, being extremely enthusiastic.

The director was also very grateful, grabbing Chen Xiao's hand and refusing to let go as he left, his words of gratitude tumbling over each other.

And the nature of this event had also changed from initial contempt to a real free clinic.

Seeing that the interns were greatly moved and had eager expressions on their faces, Chen Xiao felt deeply gratified.

It seemed that Chu Luo's move was right. This catfish had stirred up the stagnant water in the TCM department.

In a great mood, Chen Xiao announced, "Let's go! You performed well today. I've decided to take you all to Ben'an for a feast, eat as much as you want!"

Ben'an was an upscale seafood restaurant in Jiang City, with an average spending of more than four thousand yuan per person. The interns were practically going crazy when they heard that Director Chen was taking them to such a high-end place to eat.

Their eyes were full of fanaticism, and they were just short of shouting "Long live Director Chen" on the spot!

But the three deputy directors had a trace of worry in their eyes. With so many of them, this meal would cost at least forty to fifty thousand yuan.

Director Chen's idea of ​​buying people's hearts was good, but doing so was too extravagant, especially for the TCM department, which had almost no financial resources...

Finally, Li Dafu spoke frankly, "Director Chen, there's not much activity funding in our department's account. I'm afraid we can't afford a meal at Ben'an..."

Chen Xiao laughed, "Who said I was going to use the department's funds? I'm paying out of my own pocket to treat everyone to a meal, so don't worry about it!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's admiration for Chen Xiao rose to a new level.

Director Chen was too generous! Love it, love it!

Arriving at the seafood restaurant, Chen Xiao pulled Chu Luo aside while ordering food, took out a bank card, and handed it to him.

"Director Chen, what are you doing?"

Chu Luo was confused.

Chen Xiao said, "This is your reward for today's hard work. It's not much, ten thousand yuan, just a token of appreciation."

Chu Luo was slightly stunned, "Wasn't it agreed that it was a free clinic? Why is there still money?"

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and teased, "I'm afraid you'll go steal bread from the supermarket again!"

"Then I won't be polite, Director Chen!"

Chu Luo grinned and took the bank card. This ten thousand yuan was nothing to Chen Xiao, but it was really important to him.

Chen Xiao and Chu Luo returned to the table, and soon the waiter brought the food and drinks.

The table was full of dazzling seafood, such as two-foot-long lobsters, abalones bigger than faces... causing everyone to be very appetizing and drooling.

"What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and eat!"

Chen Xiao saw that everyone hadn't touched their chopsticks, so he took the initiative to say.

After he finished speaking, everyone dared to move their chopsticks. At first, everyone pretended, using chopsticks to pick up small bites to eat.

When Chen Xiao saw that this wasn't fun, he directly used his hands, grabbed a large lobster claw, and started gnawing on it.

When everyone saw that Director Chen was like this, what were they still holding back for? Let's do whatever is the most enjoyable!

The young people ate heartily, and what surprised Chen Xiao was that Chu Luo's reaction to this table of seafood was very calm. He looked like someone who had eaten and seen a lot.

Only those who were accustomed to these delicacies would be like this.

This showed that Chu Luo had a good family background since he was a child. He really didn't know how he ended up having to steal bread to make a living.

After drinking for a while, Jia Bing took advantage of his drunken state and took the initiative to say, "Well, according to the previous agreement, I want to apologize to Chu Luo, I..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Chu Luo waved his hand and interrupted him.

"Forget it, Brother Jia, I said before, you don't need to apologize to me."

Jia Bing looked embarrassed and said with a red face, "Okay then, I'll take care of the department's cleaning for the next month!"

In fact, for many years before these interns arrived, he was responsible for all the cleaning in the department, so this competition, apart from losing face, didn't cost him anything else.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiao suddenly said, "No need, you don't need to bother with cleaning."

"It's okay, Director Chen, I'll just treat it as exercise, and I'm used to doing it anyway."

Jia Bing said flatteringly.

Chen Xiao looked at Jia Bing with a playful expression and said lightly, "What I mean is, you don't have to come to the TCM department to work in the future."

"Ah?"

Jia Bing was shocked, "Why, Director Chen? We didn't say before that losing the competition would result in being fired!"

Chen Xiao said lightly, "This matter has nothing to do with the competition. You can slowly learn if your medical skills are not good, but if your medical ethics are not good, then there is no way."

Everyone immediately recalled Jia Bing's perfunctory treatment during the free clinic and his impatient attitude towards patients.

"Director Chen, give me another chance, I will definitely change."

Jia Bing was so anxious that he was sweating. If he was kicked out of the TCM department, what else could he do with his level of skill?

"I know you can change."

Chen Xiao said calmly, "But why should I give you a chance? You are not young, and your talent is not high. People like you have no value in staying."

In fact, Chen Xiao had a more hurtful sentence that he didn't say, that is, you are so old, if you could change, you would have changed long ago. Why wait until today?

In fact, this is exactly the case. Some people in the workplace always hold the attitude of muddling along, until disaster strikes, they think of changing, but they don't know it's too late.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Director Chen was still smiling the second before, and the next second he could fire someone. This was too scary!

Especially the three deputy directors, they felt that Chen Xiao was very shrewd. He was generous when it came to buying people's hearts, and he was never soft when it came to punishing people.

What they didn't know was that Chen Xiao's actions were not a trick, but just the most basic code of conduct.

Sometimes, people are often too concerned about those potential rules, and gradually forget their original intentions, and also forget the most basic code of conduct.
