Chapter 1040
Chapter 1040: Chapter 1023: The Master is Away Chapter 1040: Chapter 1023: The Master is Away Although this time the chickenpox virus was detected by their hospital, cutting it off at its root and preventing a widespread outbreak, earning praise from all quarters and bringing honor to everyone in their hospital, they only saw their glamorous side and never considered how serious the hospital disturbances at the headquarters had been these days.
They were all still reeling from the shock, yet Director Zhao had the wild idea of poaching Tang Yuxin.
For so many years, they had held the authoritative reputation of the neurological hospital—had anyone ever said anything?
Now that another hospital had a more formidable authority than theirs, why did they become jealous and intolerable?
Instead of finding ways to improve themselves, they resorted to trickery and deceit, they deserved to be beaten.

Initially, Director Zhao came to lodge a complaint, expecting an apology from Director Zhu.
How could he possibly swallow his pride otherwise?
But unexpectedly, his complaint was not accepted, and he ended up being scolded.
Although they didn’t openly scold him to his face, it was clear—they were saying he was a toad lusting after swan meat.
Director Zhao’s complaint didn’t succeed, and he swallowed his anger, which he had no choice but to push down into his stomach.
Could he possibly spit it out instead of swallowing it?
Compared to him, the other hospitals were much smarter.
Even if they harbored great ambitions, they wouldn’t try to unsettle someone’s top cornerstone like that.

Now that two people had hit a snag, no one else dared to try.
Putting themselves in others’ shoes, which hospital wouldn’t hide a good doctor?
How could they possibly let others poach their best?
Director Zhao unwittingly gave them a massive lesson, which turned out to be invaluable: don’t attempt to poach.
It’s not easy and not feasible, so just be honest and seek other means without ruining yourself.
If the mountain wouldn’t come to them, then they would go to the mountain.
To learn others’ techniques, what did pride matter?
As long as they could learn, they could recover their pride later.
And suddenly, there were many more people at the headquarters, sent from major hospitals for “academic exchanges”—at least that was the official term.
Behind the scenes, everyone knew what these so-called exchanges meant: they were there under the guise of exchanges, but in truth, they came to steal techniques.
And if they wanted to steal, let them.
Director Zhu was very generous in this regard, allowing anyone to come and take whatever they could, provided they were capable of it.
And he refused to believe that among so many doctors in their hospital, not a single one lacked skill; without skill, how would they have been assigned to or retained at the headquarters?
But had they learned anything?
No, they hadn’t.
They followed Tang Yuxin more than once or twice, for quite some time, but after all of it, had they learned anything?
No.
If they had, they would be taking on those surgeries themselves.
But the truth was that they still didn’t dare to do it, which meant their skills were still not up to par and they needed to continue studying.
With the sudden influx of so many people, the hospital’s previous shortage of personnel was alleviated, a pity though; they came to steal techniques, but the master they sought was not there, so now they had to wait a few more days.
As for the person they were waiting for, she was in Yun City, thoroughly enjoying herself, clearly having forgotten all other matters.
Tang Yuxin patted her belly, feeling very full.
She was ready to go back to sleep, looking forward to shell collecting the next morning, which had become her favorite activity.
On her first day, she was reluctant and just wanted to sleep a bit more, lazily indulging herself, but now, without needing Gu Ning’s prompting, she would get up on her own and go shell collecting promptly every morning.
After three mornings, she had already collected many beautiful shells.
With over ten days left, she could collect a whole pile of shells…
After bringing these shells back, they could serve as small gifts.
Tang Xincheng was in elementary school with many classmates; handing out a few to each would make a dent.
And in her Tang Garden, there was a small fish pond with quite a few fish, where tossing in the shells would be just fine.
So these shells were certainly worth collecting.
In the evening when they both returned, Tang Yuxin crouched with Gu Ning, picking over the shells she had collected in the morning.
The broken, unattractive, and oddly shaped ones were picked out, leaving only those that satisfied and pleased them.
After sorting, Gu Ning would arrange to send them back home, so when they returned, they wouldn’t have to carry a bunch of luggage.
Tang Yuxin couldn’t help but yawn.
“I’m sleepy,” she murmured, having originally planned to take the chance to watch some TV.
But with daily activities, as soon as she returned, she felt extremely sleepy, leaving no time for TV or reading, and would just go straight to bed.
“Go to sleep, we’re going out again tomorrow.”
Gu Ning stroked her hair, knowing that rest would give her energy.
“Don’t touch my hair,” Tang Yuxin pulled his hand away, disdainfully tugging at a strand of her hair.
“It smells fishy.”
Gu Ning touched the top of her head again, “Just take a bath, and it will be clean.”
Standing up, Tang Yuxin was about to leave but then remembered something, and ran back to Gu Ning, grabbing his face and kneading it like dough, smearing a fishy smell onto his face.
Pointing out her smell, but in fact, Gu Ning was similar.
They both had a mild case of neat-freak tendencies, like staying here, even though everything was new, they still used their own things or else they might not have been able to sleep.
After her successful mischief, Tang Yuxin cheerfully placed her hands behind her back and ran off to shower and change clothes, then sleep.
After a tiring day, she was sure to sleep well again tonight.
Half an hour later, she came out of the bathroom with her hair dried.
She flopped onto the bed, pulling the blankets tightly around herself.
Mm, ready to sleep, she thought, sleep, for she had to get up early again to collect shells.
She yawned, rubbing her face against the pillow, and quickly fell asleep.
When Gu Ning arrived later, he saw that she was soundly asleep, looking quite peaceful, which allowed him to rest easy too.
