Chapter 230: Chapter 0125: They All Pretend to be Drunk
Jiang Baicheng was very sincere about this meal, arranging it in his own hotel, in the restaurant on the top floor, the most luxurious private room.
His son was the representative to accompany the drinking during the meal. In addition to Yang Ping’s surgery team, there were also Dean Xie, Director Wu, Director Fu, the director of the established department, and a few people brought by the Jiang family to drink.
There was also one person that Director Fu brought along, the best drinker in the Orthopedic department, Dr. Xiong.
It seems that those with the surname Xiong could generally drink quite well. Xiong Sihai from Sanbo could also drink quite a lot.
The atmosphere of the dinner was very harmonious, and Director Wu was very pleased.
The surgery was performed beautifully and Yang Ping didn’t even find fault with anything, everything was going smoothly.
Although the young man was high-spirited and arrogant, with a bit of a temper, he still took good care of him without exposing him.
Yang Ping and Song Zimo didn’t drink alcohol, the few girls didn’t drink either, and everyone else did.
Director Fu came prepared, just in case they didn’t drink. Hearing that Xiaowu Zhang Lin drank, he was overjoyed, ready to outdrink him.
That glasses-wearing brother Zhang Lin was arrogant, mercilessly criticizing others. Director Fu vowed to be the first to outdrink him, to vent some anger for Director Wu.
Yang Ping didn’t drink, so Little Five also became their target. They wouldn’t stop until these two were on the ground, especially since they had nothing to do in the afternoon anyway.
With their skills, it shouldn’t be a problem to drink these two youngsters under the table, especially with Dr. Xiong present, there was hardly any suspense.
Everyone came out for a ‘fly knife’ surgery, Director Han had laid down a rule that no one could drink alcohol.
But for today’s banquet, it was the first time everyone was flying knives, and Zhang Lin Xiaowu was drinking, so it was unclear if this was breaking Director Han’s rule.
The wine was vintage Maotai, a very high-end kind.
Director Wu, Director Fu, and Dr. Xiong, back and forth with Zhang Lin and Little Five, toasting and drinking, it was unknown how many rounds they had played.
Zhang Lin Xiaowu – These two brothers, it really was a fateful meeting to come face to face, they had the same sort of character when it came to drinking-addled boxing.
Drinking-addled boxing looked like it was all over the place, as if a poke with a finger would cause a fall, but they still didn’t fall.
These two brothers were the same when they drank, they seemed a little tipsy and looked like they would fall with just another drink, but they still didn’t fall after a few more drinks, and even after a few more drinks, they didn’t fall.
After drinking who knows how many glasses, they were about to get the two of them drunk, pushed a little harder, and still they didn’t fall.
“Can’t do it anymore, can’t do it anymore!”
Zhang Lin’s face was red and his neck was red, he waved his hand, with a dazed look in his eyes. He was just one more drink away from falling.
Dry!
Director Fu was determined, he poured another glass, and Zhang Lin simply drank it in one gulp, with the bottom of his glass upturned.
Little Five on the other side, was laughing and joking, not refusing any drinks, when you toasted, naturally he had to toast too.
First, Director Wu couldn’t hold on any longer, then Director Fu fell, Dr. Xiong held on until the end, before finally waving his hand in surrender.
Zhang Lin in a befuddled state said: “Can’t do it anymore, can’t do it anymore, one last glass!”
Little Five leaned against the chair, squinting his eyes: “Really can’t do it anymore.”
In fact, Director Wu wasn’t too drunk. He just felt a bit dizzy and unsteady on his feet, he was still quite conscious. Being crafty and cunning, he realized that he would certainly fall if he continued to drink, so he pretended to be drunk. He deliberately stumbled while walking, almost falling down. The Jiang family’s people immediately went over to support him, swaying off to the restroom.
Little Five couldn’t hold on anymore either. He had a drink with young master Jiang, almost falling onto the floor. Placing a hand on his shoulder, he said: “Brother, help me to the restroom.”
Young master Jiang wanted to ask someone to help him over, but Little Five, drunk and dazed, said:” Not cool!”
With no choice, I had to support him. Director Wu had taken up the restroom in the room, so I had to take him outside.
Upon reaching the restroom and helping him inside, Little Five murmured, “Mr. Jiang, you and your family must indeed be fated with Doctor Yang but you are all lacking in consciousness, your consciousness is severely lacking!”
What did this statement mean? Even if he was drunk, this kind of talk wasn’t called for. Jiang Shao was dissatisfied.
It was the best restaurant in G City for today’s meal, the best wine was served, and I even personally drank with them. I opened the car door myself for Doctor Yang. What did they want more?
“Severely lacking in consciousness!” Little Five splashed some water on his face, not sounding drunk at all.
Jiang Shao couldn’t accept this: “Doctor Lu, how are we lacking in consciousness? If we didn’t serve well, please point it out.”
“You got stabbed and were nearly out of life. It was Doctor Yang who pulled you out from the hands of death, and you didn’t even thank him upon meeting him, pretending as if you didn’t know anything about it. Do you still have a conscience? The grace of saving a life, although life-saving is the duty of a doctor, but saving your life wasn’t something anyone could have done. Moreover, to save you, Doctor Yang offended Director Wu and got expelled from the hospital the next day, did you know that? We both were doctors at the People’s Hospital, and I was there during your surgery. The Burberry shirt you were wearing when you got injured, was the one that I helped you cut open at the emergency department,” Little Five seemed sober.
His words were clear and made sense, they weren’t drunken babble, it was more like the truth after getting drunk.
Jiang Shao was a little confused, “Wasn’t it Director Wu who performed the emergency surgery on me and saved my life?”
“Director Wu saved you? Can his skills save you?” sneered Little Five.
“For your sake, we nearly destroyed our futures. After we got kicked out, we went to Sanbo, but it was too dramatic, your Dad asked Doctor Yang to come back and perform the surgery,” Little Five wet his hair a little.
“Are you serious about this? I didn’t know!” Jiang Shao got the gist of it.
“Doctor Yang doesn’t care about these things. As long as the patients were safe, he was happy. Saving a life, even if it meant getting fired, was worth it. But this Wu Siwen, he has zero knowledge, he always suppresses us doctors. Several doctors who are educated and capable were all driven away by him. Even a new, good-looking nurse was scared away by him. Dean Xie is also not a great guy, he made a mess over the past few years. The department directors are literally for sale. Enough said, let’s go, help me up!”
Little Five leaned on Jiang Shao’s shoulder again, stumbling back.
Director Wu, on the other hand, rested on his chair like a dead dog, continuing to pretend to be drunk.
Both Director Fu and Dr. Xiong were genuinely drunk, Director Fu was calling for more drinks while Dr. Xiong remained silent.
The original plan was to drain Yang Ping’s team, but unfortunately, Zhang Lin was not an easy one to beat and Little Five was the kind to stay happy no matter how much he drunk. They ended up getting their men drunk instead.
Zhang Lin’s phone rang. As he took it out, he sobered up immediately and lost all signs of drunkenness. With a gentle voice, he answered, “I’m with Senior Brother Yang, we’re eating. Don’t worry, I didn’t drink any alcohol. I don’t look like I had alcohol, do I? I just did a symbolic drink, a little bit to rinse my mouth.”
After the call, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn, this bunch of people, Director Wu gave them a slanted glance.
This was no condition to return home for Director Wu’s three people; Jiang Shao arranged for a room to let them rest and sober up.
It was quite late, and Yang Ping’s group were about to leave. They wanted to say goodbye to Director Wu, but he was already taken away to sober up.
Jiang Shao personally escorted everyone back to the People’s Hospital, expressing his gratitude many times.
After Little Five had some alcohol, everyone adjusted, Fatty rode in Song Zimo’s car. Yang Ping came to drive Little Five’s car back to Sanbo.
In the evening, everyone returned to the city again. Yang Ping and Little Five invited some young doctors from the original orthopedics department of the People’s Hospital. Normally, everyone had grudges that they dared not express, but seeing Yang Ping and Little Five, gave everyone an abundance of words of dissatisfaction and grievances, and they all began to recount their grudges.
Little Five was candid and recounted the circumstances of Jiang Baicheng’s son’s surgery to them in detail.
His vivid explanation filled the listeners with righteous indignation.
No wonder they were fired out of nowhere, while doing good work.
The situation inside was already so deep.
If it were before, people might not believe it, but now seeing Yang Ping doing such a good surgery, they naturally believed when they thought back to it.
