Chapter 156: Chapter 156: No Use If Your Character Is Bad

Ye Yan found herself feeling sorry for Fu Xingzhou, and she couldn’t help but pinch her arm fiercely, hoping it would clear her mind a little.

This man was now completely irrelevant to her, so whether he was alive or dead was none of her concern.

The body was his own, and if he himself didn’t know how to cherish it, why should she, an outsider, care?

Ye Yan returned to her seat and continued writing her paperwork, but her mind had been disturbed. The words that usually flowed effortlessly now refused to be committed to paper.

For the next half-month, Ye Zhun and Fu Xingrui were out early and came back late every day.

The two youths would prepare breakfast and lunch before leaving, and help Ye Yan clean the house and take out the trash.

In the evenings, they would bring back groceries for the next day’s meals and wash dirty clothes.

Every morning when Ye Yan woke up, she would find steaming hot meals in the stove, and on the fridge, there was always a little post-it note, reminding her that her lunch was in the fridge and to heat it up before eating.

Under the meticulous care of the two, Ye Yan successfully had her cast removed.

Although a bone injury would take a hundred days to heal, and she no longer had to drag around the heavy cast, she still relied on crutches to walk.

The key was still to undergo rehabilitation; otherwise, without proper recovery, she really would become a cripple.

Ye Yan made an appointment with a hospital and insisted on going for rehabilitation every day.

At the same time, she began sending her resume to various hospitals.

Now that she was mostly recovered, it was time to look for a new job, not just to support herself but also Xiao Zhun.

Because of her impressive resume, it wasn’t long before hospitals began calling her for interviews.

Coincidentally, the hospital where she applied was the same one where Pei Ye worked.

Pei Ye and Xia Mengyao’s relationship ended with that engagement party, and under the strong intervention of the Xia family, the two announced their breakup.

However, thanks to Pei Ye’s handsome looks and charming eloquence, he quickly started a relationship with the granddaughter of the new hospital dean.

The dean’s granddaughter was just a college senior, interning at their hospital, and Pei Ye was her supervisor.

As they interacted more, their relationship gradually warmed up. Faced with Pei Ye’s elegant, refined, and attentive advances, the young granddaughter quickly fell for him.

Ye Yan attended the interview arranged by HR.

The vice dean, who had once taught her in college, had an exceptionally deep impression of her.

"Xiao Ye, you’re very qualified in every aspect, even having worked at the VIP level of Holy Land Hospital."

Holy Land Hospital was the name of the hospital where Ye Yan had once worked, ranking within the top three of Ao City, famous especially for its VIP ward.

"With such impressive qualifications, why choose to come to our hospital for a regular position in the oncology department?" Vice Dean Fang asked, holding her resume with a mix of admiration for talent and suspicion.

"I had to resign due to some personal issues," Ye Yan replied. "It’s my personal reason, definitely not because of patient-related issues or medical accidents."

Hospitals would be extremely cautious about rehiring doctors who had been involved in medical accidents, with some top hospitals even outright refusing them.

"If it’s personal reasons, then it’s not my place to pry," Vice Dean Fang said with a smile. "You were my student, so I have no doubts about your medical expertise. I will report this to the higher-ups, and if nothing unexpected happens, you should receive an employment offer soon."

"Thank you, Mr. Fang," Ye Yan thanked the vice dean profusely.

As she left, she happened to run into Pei Ye.

Pei Ye looked at her suspiciously. "What are you doing here?"

The events of the engagement party were still etched vividly in his mind. It was supposed to be a joyous occasion for Duan Chenglong’s son-in-law, but because of Meng Tian, he became as despised as a rat crossing the street.

Not only did Xia Mengyao break up with him, but because of the incident, Xia Mengyao’s father was also pulled down from his position as vice dean.

He had taken quite some time to recuperate before finally regrouping.

Seeing Ye Yan today reminded him of the humiliation he had suffered that day. While he couldn’t take revenge on the young Miss of the Meng Family, he saw Ye Yan as powerless and easily manipulable.

Only now did Ye Yan remember that Pei Ye worked at this hospital.

Upon looking at the work pass hanging from his neck, well, well, instead of a demotion, he had been promoted to the head of the department.

At his current age, this was definitely a rocket-like ascension.

"It has nothing to do with you," Ye Yan said as she bypassed him and walked towards the building’s exit.

Pei Ye had glanced at the item in her hand a moment ago; it seemed to be a resume.

Why was Ye Yan, who worked at Holy Land Hospital, bringing a resume here?

If she were just from the general levels of Holy Land, it would have been one thing, but she was from the VIP level—the wages there were the highest in Ao City, and she would have had more opportunities to meet various officials and VIPs.

In their profession, everyone who talked about the VIP level of Holy Land did so with undisguised envy.

Pei Ye entered the office and greeted with a smile, "Dean Fang, the person who just came in was a friend of mine."

Upon seeing Pei Ye, Dean Fang’s expression became somewhat cooler.

He didn’t like Pei Ye as a person.

Because Pei Ye wasn’t truly focused on medical research, he was just looking for shortcuts.

A doctor must be diligent and disciplined in practice—there are no shortcuts, otherwise it’s irresponsible to the patients.

"Is she here for a job interview?"

Vice Dean Fang didn’t look at him: "Yes."

"She’s a doctor from the VIP level of Holy Land. Why would she come to our hospital?" Pei Ye pretended to care, "She hasn’t offended some powerful figure and is looking to hide out here, has she?"

"Didn’t you say she was your friend?" Vice Dean Fang frowned, his disdain for Pei Ye growing, "What do you want? If there’s nothing else, I need to interview the next person."

Pei Ye forced a couple of awkward laughs and left.

As soon as he was out the door, his face darkened.

He’s just a mere vice dean—what’s there to be proud of? When he becomes the son-in-law of the dean in the future, won’t he have to chase after him for flattery every single day?

Pei Ye made a call to a classmate of his at Holy Land Hospital and found out that Ye Yan had indeed resigned, but the reasons were not clear. However, many were spreading the rumor that she had offended the Fu Family.

To verify this, Pei Ye spent the afternoon investigating the matter and finally found the evidence.

Ye Yan’s departure from Holy Land was indeed due to Fu Xingzhou, and it was Fu Xingzhou himself who had approached the hospital’s board of directors, requesting that Ye Yan’s employment be terminated.

The fact that Fu Xingzhou went to such lengths made it clear that Ye Yan had really kicked an iron plate this time.

In Ao City, everyone knew that you could offend anyone but the Gambling King; otherwise, you’d be forced out of Ao City in no time.

After getting this information, Pei Ye wasted no time in finding Dean Fang’s granddaughter, Zeng Qian.

If he could just spread this news around, Ye Yan wouldn’t even dream of finding another job in the hospitals of Ao City.

She had it coming for being Meng Tian’s best friend!

Zeng Qian was a typical love-struck fool. Pei Ye told her his grudge with Meng Tian, turning facts upside down, without her giving a second thought to the truth of his story.

When Pei Ye said that everything in the past was instigated and planned by Ye Yan, Zeng Qian literally jumped up from her seat, "No way, I need to talk to the dean. We cannot hire someone so scheming in our hospital."

"Just forget it. Her medical skills are quite high, and she has a bit of fame in the industry. Plus, she was once from the VIP level of Holy Land Hospital. It’s our gain if she comes to our hospital."

"No matter how good her medical skills are, if her character is flawed, it’s useless. I’m doing this out of responsibility for our hospital’s patients."
