University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 653: Chapter 499: Discussing Hai City University—How Is He Still Alive??

Even though.

For a long time.

Chen Mu had also been considering the group of intern doctors from Hai City University of Traditional Medicine and Hai City Medical University.

But the significance of him speaking up is completely different from that of the principal.

Chen Mu only needed to see the principal’s expression.

To know.

This time, the principal might be serious.

After taking a deep breath, Chen Mu’s expression also became much more serious, "What type of intern doctors does the principal want to keep? Are we suggesting to stay at our school as a school doctor?"

Principal: "Of course, it has to be the most outstanding and versatile ones."

Upon hearing the principal say this,

two words unconsciously flashed through Chen Mu’s mind.

Mu Yao.

Yes!

That’s right!

It’s Mu Yao!

When the principal stated his requirements, the most suitable candidate in Chen Mu’s mind was only one.

That’s Mu Yao!

The principal noticed the change in Chen Mu’s expression and couldn’t help but brighten up, "Dr. Chen, do you already have someone in mind so quickly?"

"Anyone who catches Dr. Chen’s attention must be very outstanding."

"Why not, after you leave here later, contact Old Lu and let him keep an eye on her, maintain close contact with this intern, and strive to recruit her to our school as a school doctor."

Chen Mu’s lips twitched slightly.

Looking at the principal with growing exasperation, "Principal, you’re indeed very smart, but don’t you think, if you can think of it, haven’t Secretary Lu already thought about poaching people before?"

The principal was stunned: "It failed?"

"That’s not right!"

The principal was baffled.

Rubbing his chin, he continued, "Though in terms of medical career development, Hai City University’s school hospital definitely isn’t as competitive as a top-tier hospital, but doesn’t your generation value ’lying flat’ more than ours? I remember your generation is all about taking it easy?"

"Look, the school doctor job is famously relaxed compared to working in a hospital."

Chen Mu: "???"

Pointing to his nose, he couldn’t help but question again.

Chen Mu: "Principal, look into my eyes and say it again, the school doctor job is relaxed???!!!"

Damn!

The notion that a school doctor job is relaxed is the biggest lie Chen Mu heard in the 21st century.

Recalling his past, he was attracted by this idea and eagerly applied to Hai City University after being forced out of emergency medicine.

According to his pre-employment expectations,

he would become completely idle once he joined the school hospital.

Lounging on the sofa in the school hospital every day, scrolling through his phone, snacking, spending the day joyfully like that.

University students are in their prime, young and strong, full of energy; what kind of workload could they possibly provide for a school doctor?

But once he started working at Hai City University’s school hospital, Chen Mu almost wanted to quit every day!

Yes, the fragile university students are in their youth.

And yes, they’re full of energy.

However!

The biggest problem lies exactly in the word "energy"!

It’s because these fragile university students have too much energy, that’s the biggest issue!!!

This energetic group of fragile university students, day in and day out, are full of boundless vigor.

Most of the time,

what could be a peaceful, uneventful day feels too quiet and boring for them.

They want to add some spice to their life.

And also create some work for the school hospital.

Principal: "..."

Facing Chen Mu’s eyes that almost seemed to spew fire,

the lies at the tip of his tongue became difficult to utter.

If anyone else were standing in front of him, the principal could continue saying without batting an eye that the school doctor job is very relaxing.

But right now, facing nobody else but the complaining school doctor, Chen Mu.

The principal averted his gaze, trying hard to rationalize his previous words, "Though the school doctor job isn’t as relaxing as many imagine, it’s at least relatively more relaxing compared to other doctors, right?"

"Didn’t you previously work in hospital emergency rooms as well? The workload at the school hospital can’t compare to hospital emergency rooms."

Chen Mu coldly snorted: "Is that even comparable?"

"Do the rescue equipment in school hospitals even compare in any way to those in hospital emergency rooms?"

"The reason why the work at the school hospital is heavy is that when there’s an actual acute or critical patient, aside from common emergency methods like CPR or artificial respiration, there’s basically nothing more useful they can do."

"One, they aren’t qualified to hold some emergency medications. Two, they don’t have enough large emergency equipment."

"Principal, although I’ve thought about poaching people before, for the doctor’s better career development, I believe the outstanding doctor would have a better future working in a top-tier hospital than staying at Hai City University’s school hospital."

Hearing this from Chen Mu,

even though the principal knew Chen Mu’s words were justified,

he still couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious, "But if that’s the case, what should Hai City University’s school hospital do? What about the students at Hai City University?"

Choosing to let the program crew into the school to film the profession of a school doctor, for both Hai City University and its school hospital, is a huge gamble.

The public controversies surrounding Chen Mu had been partially known by the higher-ups of the school even before he joined the school hospital of Hai City University.
