Chapter 8, Where the Dao resides, even if there are thousands or millions, I shall proceed

Cong Rong pushed open the office door, took a cup of water, and had a sip. "I do not take on medical dispute cases, and you know that. If you are reluctant to part with it, then you should handle it yourself"

Zhong Zhen immediately concealed the reluctance on her face and pitifully asked, "Cousin, are you still going to buy the air conditioner for me?"

Cong Rong was filled with disdain, looking at him as if she could see through him, and coldly snorted, "Speak the truth!"

Zhong Zhen was in a dilemma, "Who does he really like? It can't be the doctors from our hospital, right? Doctor He is with those young nurses, it can't be Doctor He. Could it be Doctor Qin?"

Tan Sizhe glanced at the numbers on the document again, feeling a pang in his heart, yet he said no more. He simply sat down opposite Cong Rong and looked at her with a probing expression for a long while, "Lawyer Cong, may I ask why you never take on medical cases"

What about the half of the rent that was agreed upon

Cong Rong arrived at the law firm and happened to encounter partner Tan Sizhe at the office door. Tan Sizhe is her senior, and they have maintained contact during her years abroad. When she returned to the country, one of the current partners at the firm was about to leave, and Tan Sizhe asked her if she was interested in joining. She then took the opportunity to join the firm.

During the following time, Cong Rong was not in a good state. Once the person was sent away, she eagerly questioned Zhong Zheng: "I remember you were always wanting to apply for the graduate program of a rather senior professor. Why did you suddenly become a student of Wen Shaoqing?"

Tan Sizhe looked regretful, "I would like to, but the other party specifically requested you to come."

Tan Sizhe stared at her suitcase, stroking his chin, "Are you going on a business trip? But that doesn't seem right; there haven't been any clients requiring you to travel recently, have there?"

Cong Rong nodded and followed up with, "Yes, I am indeed avoiding him. I had a crush on him and ended up being found out. It's quite awkward since I see him every day, so I came to hide here with you. Did you really notice all of this?"

Zhong Zhen's young face was filled with admiration as he softly repeated, "Where there is a way, even if there are thousands or millions, I will go. Cousin, before that moment, I never felt that studying medicine had such a profound impact on me. At that instant, I suddenly saw the light in him and wanted to be a good doctor like him, so that year I applied for his graduate program.

Zhong Zhen nodded repeatedly, "Yes, he said it himself."

Zhong Zhen lightly coughed and began to introduce solemnly: "Teacher Wen's surgical skills are undoubtedly among the best in our hospital. On the 'Liuyedao' ranking, 'Yiqing Erchu (Chu)' refers to Wen Shaoqing, who is known as 'Qing'. Teacher Wen has a nickname, 'Beauty Knife', as his technique is exquisite and elegant to an unparalleled degree. His incisions and sutures are skillful and beautiful to the point of being unreplicable. Every time I watch him perform surgery, it is a true enjoyment"

Cong Rong replied while tidying up: "Well, I need to go to the law firm shortly. Starting today, I will be living at home, so you can move back to the bedroom to sleep."

Zhong Zhen immediately smiled and opened the door for her, saying, "Then you should leave quickly"

Cong Rong felt that Zhong Zhen mingled with her while urinating, and she supported him in a way that suppressed and trampled him, watching him grow up. However, she always felt a sense of regret that a boy had never fought from childhood to adulthood.

Cong Rong sat down at the desk and opened the computer, "Since it is like this, let's go ahead and push it forward."

Zhong Zhen suddenly put away his playful smile and spoke earnestly: "At that time, I was still an undergraduate and wasn't very familiar with Teacher Wen. In recent years, the doctor-patient relationship has been quite tense, and sometimes family members of patients or medical disputes would cause disturbances. On that day, many teachers were scheduled for surgeries, and only a few of my classmates and I were present. It was my first encounter with such a situation, and I was actually terrified. At that time, Teacher Wen had just come out of the operating room after performing surgery for over ten hours. He hadn't even had time to change out of his surgical gown and hurriedly rushed over, still covered in large patches of blood. He stood in front of us and said one sentence to me. He said, 'Little friend, stand behind me.' That day, he truly protected all of us. Later, when he was awarded the title of the youngest professor, he came to the school to give a lecture. I arrived late, just as it was about to end. He spoke to us about what it means to be a great doctor with integrity, and he also said, 'Those who study medicine must first learn to be a person, and then learn to be a doctor.' Regardless of the broader environment, we must be worthy of our patients and ourselves, and we must not let our patients down. The profession of a doctor must be carried on by someone. My grandfather said, 'Where there is a way, even if there are thousands or millions, I will go.'

It will also come out!

Because my cousin is a doctor, the circle of doctors is quite small, and I am concerned that in the future, people he knows may confront each other in court, which would put him in an awkward position

Cong Rong smiled and said, "To defeat the enemy without fighting is the greatest virtue. Wen Shaoqing is excellent; you should learn well from him"

Oh. Cong Rong suddenly lost her curiosity, turned around, and prepared to go back to continue her sleep. However, when she reached the bedroom, she recalled Zhong Zheng's earlier words, "I sleep on the same bed you sleep on every day," and felt quite uncomfortable, unable to lie down at all. Staring at the bed for a long time, Cong Rong sighed and turned to start packing her luggage. Hearing the noise, Zhong Zheng ran in and asked, "Cousin, are you leaving?"

Because medical cases require going to the hospital, I dislike the smell of disinfectant.

Zhong Zhen was puzzled, "Why is it that after Teacher Wen came for a visit, you no longer live here? You are still neighbors; were you hiding from him before?"

Cong Rong remained silent for half a day, watching the car gradually disappear from view on the balcony, before finally asking: "What happened next? Did they end up fighting that day...?"

In a teasing tone, he said, "Congrong, is your partner planning to switch careers and become an accountant? He seems to have great potential with that meticulous approach. At that moment, I seriously corrected him, saying, 'Zhao Lao, Tan Sizhe is not planning to switch to being an accountant; he is originally from an accounting background and only became a lawyer halfway through his career.'

No. "I was intimidated," Zhong Zhen said, patting her chest, "I was forced to retreat by Teacher Wen's sharp tongue, defeating the enemy without a fight.

Tan Sizhe was mocked and ridiculed by Cong Rong, and with a dark expression, he stood up and left. Upon reaching the door, he stopped and said fiercely: "I am indeed planning to become an accountant! I am going to register for the CPA exam right now!"

Cong Rong candidly admitted, which instead made Zhong Zheng feel it was untrustworthy, "Hahaha, how is that possible? Cousin, how could you have a crush on someone else? Besides, how long have you known each other?"

Cong Rong immediately entered work mode, his brain operating at high speed for a few seconds, tentatively asking the key question: "Your boss has moved, do you know?"

So you don't dislike the smell of the morgue? Change it again.

Cong Rong quietly listened, suddenly recalling when she returned from abroad to start her career, her father stood in the study and told her: "The law is to promote merit and fear violence. The law is the great trust of the world. Most lawyers handle cases, while good lawyers handle people. The transition from an ordinary lawyer to a good lawyer is a process of dealing with people. Wield the sword of law, hold the scales of justice; a lawyer does not represent justice, but is also a flesh-and-blood being. I do not wish for you to be harmed in the name of justice, yet when you have the ability, you should still stand on the side of justice."

Zhong Zhen nodded, "I know, he used to live here, sleeping on the very bed you sleep on every day, and it was only after he moved out that it was rented to me"

Cong Rong listened to him talking to himself for a long time and could not help but ask: "Who is Doctor Qin?"

Dr. Qin Chu from the Department of Surgical Oncology and Dr. Chu Qiuming from the Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. Qin is quite a beauty!

Cong Rong's subordinates paused momentarily, silently repeating in their minds, how long have we known each other? In any case, it has been longer than the time you have known each other

Cong Rong felt a twitch at the corner of her eye, "Does he... have someone he likes now?"

Zhong Zhen's eyes lit up at once, and she was so excited that she danced with joy, "What a coincidence?! Such a great fate, cousin, you must seize this opportunity!" Before Cong Rong could respond, she looked defeated again, "Oh no! My boss said he already has someone he likes."

Where there is a path, even if there are thousands or millions, I shall go. This statement is also applicable to lawyers, is it not

Tan Sizhe immediately adopted a serious demeanor, "This is a major client!"

Cong Rong changed a hand, "No, what do you want from me?"

"Don't!" Tan Sizhe held out the documents in front of Cong Rong, "Take a good look; the price offered by the other party is quite substantial!"

Cong Rong turned her head and cast a disdainful glance at him, dragging her suitcase and walking away without looking back

Cong Rong suppressed his urge to go crazy upon hearing this, maintaining a calm demeanor on his face, "He is now my neighbor, living right across from me."

Tan Sizhe became interested and said, "What did I say?"

Cong Rong was about to leave with her suitcase, while Zhong Zhen stood at the door, gripping her suitcase tightly and refusing to let go. Cong Rong rested her fingers on the shoe cabinet and looked at him, saying, "Speak quickly if you have something to say"

Cong Rong suddenly felt a void in her heart, which could hardly be described as sadness; it was merely a sense of emptiness. Soon, she came to understand that it was quite normal for Wen Shaoqing to have someone he liked.

Cong Rong casually provided an answer, "Because medical cases often involve lives, I am afraid"

Cong Rongbai glanced at him and said, "Senior Brother, a few days ago I ran into Old Zhao at the court. Do you know what he said about you?"

She had specifically researched the information about that old professor at the time, and it was precisely for this reason that she was so certain that the "boss" mentioned by Zhong Zheng would be an old man, and she did not even consider Wen Shaoqing.

Every time Zhong Zhen mentioned Wen Shaoqing, he wore a face full of admiration and respect, prompting Cong Rong to interrupt him: "What about the two Chus?"

I also think my boss is very nice!" Zhong Zhen dared to ask when Cong Rong finally showed a smile, "Cousin, did you know my boss before?"

After speaking, she handed the materials to Cong Rong. Cong Rong glanced at them a few times and threw them back into Tan Sizhe's arms, saying, "I won't accept it."

Cong Rong silently rolled her eyes and said, "Buy!"

Cong Rong made a gesture of invitation, infuriating Tan Sizhe to the point of losing control

Ha, as a lawyer specializing in criminal litigation, what kind of scene have you not encountered

Zhong Zhen had a reluctant expression on her face, "Cousin, I can't bear to part with you."

"Just barely passing, huh?" Tan Sizhe looked at her with a mix of belief and skepticism, "But with such a big piece of cake being pushed away by you, you need to take on more cases to make it up to me!"
