Overpowered Resident Doctor

Chapter 508: Chapter 507: Letter of Challenge

After dinner, the night was deepening.

Wang Chuan, the Yan siblings, Yu Suye, Yanyan, and Tian Yu gathered once again on the large second-floor terrace of the villa to cool off and chat.

Zhong Xinyi had to stay at a hotel in the city tonight for work negotiations and other matters, so she wouldn’t be coming back.

Yan Ziruo, sitting in a wicker chair, ate a piece of cool, sweet watermelon and leaned back comfortably.

She looked at the brightest star in the night sky, listened to the chorus of chirping insects all around, and couldn’t help but sigh, "Now *this* is the life."

"Hey, my dear Feifan, when I get married, you have to buy me a villa here as part of my dowry."

Yan Feifan didn’t respond verbally, just grabbed his sister’s shoulders and started shaking her vigorously.

"What are you shaking me for?" Yan Ziruo said, annoyed.

Yan Feifan chuckled. "I’m shaking you out of your daydream, so you don’t keep spouting nonsense."

Wang Chuan laughed. "The villas here go for around a hundred thousand per square meter. With Feifan’s current earning power, he can afford it."

"It’s just that Phoenix Tail Mountain has great scenery, it’s a reasonable distance from the city, the airport, and the high-speed rail station, and the amenities are fairly complete. Very few villas here are ever put up for resale."

"You could say there’s a price, but no market."

Yu Suye added, "It would be even more perfect if a top-tier hospital were built nearby."

Wang Chuan nodded. "That’s true."

"I heard that someone wanted to invest in building a high-end sanatorium nearby, but they never got approval from the higher-ups."

"Besides, the government has stopped allowing new villas or residential projects to be built in this area."

Yu Suye smiled. "That’s a matter of policy and planning."

"But if they can ban it, they can also lift the ban. It all depends on the backing and strength of the project’s proponents, as well as the project itself."

She suggested, "Director, what if the Affiliated Hospital and Baining Hospital applied together to build a high-spec, research-oriented, comprehensive hospital here, one that would also take on a certain number of international patients?"

"What do you think the chances of getting approval would be? High?"

Yan Feifan couldn’t help but say, "Su Ye, you’re still thinking about this?"

Yu Suye giggled. "Mainly because, just like your sister, I’ve fallen in love with the scenery here."

"If a hospital was built right next to this place, we could live and work here. Wouldn’t that be perfect?"

Wang Chuan mused, "Given the Affiliated Hospital’s influence in Binhai, plus the Baining Group’s financial resources, getting approval isn’t entirely out of the question."

"It’s just that a project of this scale isn’t something we..."

As he said this, Wang Chuan suddenly stopped.

He turned to Yan Feifan and said cheerfully, "How could I have forgotten about you, Feifan? You could put a bug in Mr. Liu’s ear."

"If Mr. Liu also agrees with this idea, maybe he can get the project moving!"

Yan Feifan couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

"You guys are really overestimating me, aren’t you?"

"I know Mr. Liu has always wanted to build a branch campus, but the problem is he’s never gotten support from the higher-ups."

"Who knows how many people are covetously eyeing this area of Phoenix Tail Mountain? Getting it approved for a hospital will probably be very difficult."

Yu Suye urged him, "Feifan, how will you know it can’t be done if you don’t even try? Besides, there’s no harm in it!"

"Alright, I’ll mention it to Mr. Liu," Yan Feifan agreed casually.

In truth, none of them—not Wang Chuan, Yu Suye, or Yan Feifan—took the matter too seriously.

A decision of this magnitude was far beyond their reach...

The group chatted casually about building the hospital for a few more moments before the topic shifted to Yan Feifan’s plastic surgery observation seminar.

"Feifan, I’ve done a preliminary count. We’ll probably need to send out sixty or seventy invitations..."

Before Wang Chuan could finish, Yan Feifan interrupted, "Director, what about the costs?"

Wang Chuan chuckled. "They’ll cover their own travel and accommodation."

"We’ll just be responsible for the working lunch and one banquet in the evening. That’s it."

Yan Feifan blinked and asked for confirmation, "Director, we don’t have to cover their travel and accommodation at all?"

Wang Chuan grunted in affirmation. "These people aren’t short on cash. They won’t mind a small expense like that."

"Besides, they’re coming to witness a miracle, to observe and learn. The fact that we’re not charging them an entrance fee is generous enough."

Wang Chuan then chuckled slyly. "Feifan, we also need to give the invitation a special design."

"My idea is to include the patient’s detailed examination records, along with your simulated post-operative results."

"I want them to see this invitation as a letter of challenge."

Yu Suye asked with a hint of worry, "Director, won’t that make Feifan seem arrogant and conceited?"

Wang Chuan just waved his hand and said with high spirits, "That’s precisely the effect we’re going for."

"Feifan is young and has this kind of skill. Why can’t he challenge every plastic surgeon in the country?"

"It’s like the poem: ’A single sword’s flash chills fourteen provinces.’ With this move, Feifan will draw his sword, knock them all flat, and make them all submit from the heart."

"Will they be taking that orally?" Yan Ziruo asked with a smile.

Wang Chuan shook his head. "Getting them to admit it verbally will be very difficult."

"After all, huge commercial interests are at stake."

"If they openly admit they’re not as good, it’s tantamount to handing over the most high-end market segment, like celebrities and entertainers, to us."

"And that high-end market is the most profitable one."

Yan Ziruo let out an "Oh" of understanding.

Just then, Yan Feifan’s phone rang.

He picked it up and saw it was a call from Miao Quan, the director of the neurology department. He quickly answered it.

"Mr. Miao, I’m surprised to get a call from you. Is something wrong?"

"Even if something was up, I wouldn’t call you!"

Miao Quan said huffily over the phone, "I’ve only just now managed to completely sort out the trouble you caused for me last time."

Hearing this, Yan Feifan gave a guilty chuckle.

The last time, he had taken a risk and used a trick to prove a murderer was only faking a mental illness. The defendant’s lawyer had seized on a small loophole, demanding the evaluation be overturned and a new psychiatric assessment conducted.

Although the court ultimately didn’t accept the demand, the reputation of the Affiliated Hospital’s Forensic Psychiatry Assessment Center was called into question because of the incident.

The psychiatry department only managed to get past it after a period of rectification and re-evaluation.

"Kid, I also heard about what you went through over the weekend."

"You, ever since you came back to work, it’s just been one thing after another, big and small."

"Come by my office in the next couple of days. I’ll give you a counseling session."

Yan Feifan quickly refused. "Mr. Miao, thank you for your concern, but I’m perfectly fine. I don’t need any counseling at all."

"Besides, my surgery schedule is packed. I don’t have the time."

Miao Quan huffed over the phone, "You rascal, every time I ask you to come see me, you make all sorts of excuses and act all reluctant. Are you afraid I’ll find something wrong with you?"

"No way! My mental state is perfectly fine!" Yan Feifan couldn’t help but raise his voice.

Miao Quan huffed again on the phone and said, leaving no room for argument, "Then just make time to come see me in the next couple of days."

"I have something else I need to see you about, anyway."

Since he put it that way, Yan Feifan had no choice but to agree.

He ended the call and was surprised to hear soft snoring.

It was only then that Yan Feifan, Wang Chuan, and the others realized that Tian Yu and Yanyan had both fallen asleep in their wicker chairs.

Yan Ziruo couldn’t help but laugh. "No wonder this one has been so quiet tonight. Turns out she was so tired she fell asleep."

Wang Chuan stood up and gently picked Yanyan up in his arms.

"Let’s call it a night. Get some rest."

The Yan siblings and Yu Suye all stood up and agreed.

Yan Ziruo and Yu Suye exchanged a look, then glanced at the softly snoring Tian Yu.

"You get her? Or should I?"

Yan Feifan laughed. "That girl is dead weight. Better to let her get up herself."

As he spoke, he reached out and flicked Tian Yu on the forehead...
