Chapter 18 — Steal My Dean's Chair? The Director personally handled it

Phuong Nha looked straight into his eyes. The corners of his lips curled up in a bitter smile.

“That…”

“I learned it from you.”

Phuong Thanh Hai raised his hand to slap her. But in front of the meeting room door, there were too many people looking. That arm finally stopped in midair. The person in charge of the private hospital spoke coldly:

“Mr. Phuong.”

“Please leave here.”

That moment. Phuong Thanh Hai's last bit of dignity... Was destroyed by the very person he wanted to take advantage of the most. On the side of Hospital No. 2. The work of building key specialties has officially been fully implemented. I don't celebrate loudly. The first funding was used to upgrade equipment in the treatment area. The second amount is for the training program for young doctors. The third amount is for the nursing staff's allowances. When you receive that support. Chu Ninh's eyes turned red again.

“Director Tham.”

“Do I have the opportunity to apply for the position of Chief Nursing Officer in the future?”

I looked at her.

“Not later.”

“Submit your application next month.”

Chu Ninh was stunned.

“Can you... do it?”

Manh Khai Minh burst out laughing.

“If you still can't do it.”

“Who else can do it?”

Chu Ninh wiped her tears and smiled.

“So I signed up.”

Exam day. Phuong Nha also attended the hearing. Chu Ninh stood on the reporting podium. Answer each question fluently. One judge asked:

“What is your greatest strength?”

Chu Ninh did not hesitate.

“I dare say no.”

“I dare to say no to unreasonable duty schedules.”

“Dare to say no to putting patients at risk.”

“Dare to say no to treating nursing as a tool.”

Applause echoed throughout the hall. Chu Ninh was accepted. First thing after stepping off the stage. He ran to hug me.

“Director Tham.”

“I did it!”

“I can do it myself.”

Not far away. Phuong Nha quietly looked at Chu Ninh. Eyes are very complicated. She didn't step forward. Just nodded slightly to Chu Ninh. Chu Ninh also nodded in response. There is no reconciliation. No handshake. It's just that we both understand. The road ahead is different. Internal Medicine Department of Hospital No. 2 was officially recognized as a Provincial Key Specialty Construction Unit. The sign installation ceremony took place in the main lobby of the hospital. Director Luc. Co Hoai Dan. Tu Du Street. All are present. I stand on stage. Below are colleagues. Is a patient's family member. They are people who have witnessed everything from beginning to end. Director Luc handed the sign to me.

“Director Tham.”

“It's been hard.”

I shook my head.

“It's everyone who's struggling.”

Co Hoai Dan burst out laughing.

“Nghien Thu.”

“That year I left Van Te.”

“I regretted it for five years.”

“Now I understand.”

“No matter where I am, I can open my own path.”

Duong Tu Du gave me a cooperation contract.

“The provincial-level affiliated clinic will be in charge of you.”

I take it. She continued:

“The budget has been approved.”

“Thirty million yuan in the first year.”

Chu Ninh was so surprised that he cried out softly. Manh Khai Minh laughed until he couldn't close his mouth. A reporter stood up and asked:

“Director Tham.”

“After all the controversies and troubles we've been through.”

“What do you want to say most to young doctors?”

I looked straight into the lens.

“Don't consider location as a destination.”

“Location is just where responsibility begins.”

In a great corner lobby. Phuong Nha was also present. She passed the first stage of evaluation at the base clinic. But still haven't been able to return to the Department of Internal Medicine. She doesn't shy away. No tears either. After the ceremony. She proactively walked in front of me.

“Director Tham.”

“I applied to stay at the base clinic.”

I was a bit surprised. Phuong Nha smiled faintly.

“There really is someone there who needs me.”

“No one cares whose granddaughter I am.”

I nodded.

“I hope you do well.”

She smiled bitterly.

“You still refuse to say anything pleasant.”

“Talking a lot is useless.”

“If you've done it, then say it.”

Phuong Nha nodded. Then turned around and left. Phuong Thanh Hai did not appear. It is said that he has sent many job applications. But they were all refused. It's not because anyone intentionally makes things difficult. But because everyone has seen how he works. A person willing to trample on rules. It will be very difficult for others to feel secure in leaving the rules in his hands again. Two years later. The final acceptance period of the key specialty construction project took place. The scale is much larger than the first time. Our team delivers the full results. The satisfaction level of key patients ranks first in the entire city. Successfully trained twelve core young doctors. The nursing team won excellent titles at the city level. The annual scientific research budget exceeds eighty million yuan. Chu Ninh became Chief Nursing Officer. Manh Khai Minh also trained two excellent young doctors. Duong Tu Du became the person in charge of the provincial linkage project. But when I meet you, I still don't forget to apologize.

“Director Tham.”

“The third document item could still be more detailed.”

I reluctantly looked at her.

“Today is acceptance day.”

Duong Tu Du burst out laughing.

“The day of acceptance is even more important to catch errors.”

Below the stage. Co Hoai Dan looked at me and spoke.
