My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen frowned slightly and said in a low voice:
"Who is this Mr. Huang? He is so arrogant. When the doctor came, he just stood there without even showing his face. Even if he has made contributions to the country and is a meritorious official, his arrogant attitude is really unacceptable! In his eyes, are we doctors just tools that can be called upon at any time?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction and sarcasm in Xiao Chen's words. There was a cold light flashing in his eyes. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Mr. Huang's attitude.

Hearing this, Wang Xingyun shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Alliance leader, this is the world of the rich and powerful. In their eyes, doctors are there to serve them. Even if they are polite on the surface, how can they really take us seriously in their hearts? Although we have medical skills, in their eyes, we are just a supporting role in their lives."

Wang Xingyun's words were filled with helplessness and emotion. He knew the rules of this world very well, and he also understood his position in it. He looked at Xiao Chen with a look full of understanding and sympathy, as if to say, "We are all just a small cog in this huge machine, and we can't change anything."

"Stupid!" Xiao Chen's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight. He shook his head vigorously, his eyes filled with deep dissatisfaction and disappointment with Mr. Huang's attitude.

He continued:
"It's a different era now, and he still holds on to such a foolish idea. No wonder his son's illness can't be cured. I think those truly capable doctors are unwilling to come because of his arrogant and disrespectful attitude towards doctors. In this era, doctors with superb medical skills value respect and understanding more than money and status."

Wang Xingyun nodded in agreement, his eyes revealing helplessness and emotion:

"You're right, Xiao Chen. In the eyes of those powerful people, it's just a matter of price. They think that as long as the money is enough, there is no doctor who will not be tempted and give his all. However, they don't know that times have changed."

He paused for a moment and continued, "Who among the truly capable doctors today would care about a few bucks? They pursue a higher realm, something else. They are stupid and don't understand anything. Sometimes, they even value an attitude, a respect and understanding for the medical profession. And people like Mr. Huang who don't even have this attitude are really stupid."

"If the leader is unhappy, let's just leave. We don't owe anyone anything anyway." There was a hint of dissatisfaction and helplessness in Wang Xingyun's voice. He looked at Xiao Chen, waiting for his decision.

Hearing this, Xiao Chen gently waved his hand, looked deeply at the entrance of the banquet hall, and said in a calm but firm tone:
"Now that we are here, let's take a look at the situation first. As you said, the patient is innocent, and we cannot let our personal emotions affect the treatment of the patient. As long as the other party's attitude is not too hateful, we can tolerate it. After all, we are doctors, and saving the dying and healing the wounded is our mission."

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Mr. Huang had made outstanding contributions to the country, Xiao Chen would have left long ago. Although he was dissatisfied with Mr. Huang's attitude, he also had his own ideas.

At this time, guests arrived one after another, and the whole banquet hall became very lively. The male guests were all well-dressed, in suits and leather shoes, and in high spirits; the female guests were adorned with jewels, wearing gorgeous dresses and dazzling jewelry, like blooming flowers, embellishing the whole banquet hall even more dazzlingly.

Wang Xingyun wore an exquisite red Tang suit, which was cleverly inlaid with golden decorative patterns, which not only highlighted his identity as the president of Tianhai United Hospital of Medical Alliance, but also cleverly integrated his unique personal temperament.

The Tang suit was well-tailored, perfectly outlining his tall and straight figure. Coupled with the calmness and wisdom acquired over the years, he stood out in the crowd.

In contrast, Xiao Chen's outfit seemed particularly plain and simple. He wore a simple dark-colored suit without any extra decorations, and even a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, which was out of place in this luxurious banquet hall. His outfit was as if he had walked directly from the countryside into a palace banquet, which was particularly different.

After noticing Xiao Chen, many guests cast surprised and contemptuous glances at him. Those glances were full of confusion and disdain, as if they were looking at a country bumpkin who had sneaked into the palace banquet, and they could not understand why he was here.

Faced with such a look, Wang Xingyun couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

He looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes full of apology: "Alliance leader, I'm so sorry, this is all my negligence. I originally thought that we were just here to see a doctor and we could leave after the treatment. We didn't need to attend this banquet, so I didn't remind you to change your clothes... I really didn't expect to cause you such trouble."

Wang Xingyun's words were full of sincerity and self-blame. He knew Xiao Chen very well and knew that he did not care about these superficial things, but as a friend and subordinate, he still hoped that Xiao Chen could get the respect he deserved here.

Xiao Chen waved his hand gently, with a faint smile on his face. That smile was full of confidence and composure:
"A person with a strong heart will not be troubled by the gazes of mediocre people. Even if you warned me in advance, I would still choose to come dressed like this. After all, they and I are not the same kind of people. Why should I compromise myself and change into those gorgeous clothes that do not belong to me just to please them?"

Wang Xingyun was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his eyes involuntarily fell on Xiao Chen's clear eyes. Those eyes seemed to contain endless wisdom and depth, which made him feel ashamed.

He lowered his head, with a hint of self-blame in his voice: "I am superficial and fail to understand your deep meaning. You and them are indeed from completely different worlds."

Speaking of this, Wang Xingyun felt an unprecedented sense of awe in his heart.

He suddenly realized that Xiao Chen was like a god high above in the sky, extraordinary and otherworldly, and those so-called glamorous guests were nothing but ants on the ground in front of them, small and insignificant.

This strong contrast made him admire Xiao Chen even more, but at the same time he felt ashamed of his own superficiality and narrow-mindedness.

While the two were talking, there was a slight commotion at the door of the banquet hall, and then a group of people walked in slowly.

The leader was a middle-aged man, who walked steadily and with an imposing manner. Behind him followed a young man. Both of them were dressed in suits and looked quite formal. (End of this chapter)
