"What do you mean, what's going on?"
Li Xu sat back down at his desk, casually adjusting his stethoscope.
"Director Chen!" Wu Mengmeng leaned in and lowered her voice. "He's the youngest leading expert in hepatobiliary surgery in Feng City. He's famous in the hospital for being cold and aloof. How come he was so... so polite to you? He even said he wanted to consult you for a surgical debriefing!"
"Maybe Director Chen is just a very polite person," Li Xu replied mildly, casually clicking on the next registration file.
Wu Mengmeng was speechless.
She complained frantically in her mind, "Polite, my foot! When Director Chen scolds the resident doctors in the operating room, you can hear him across the entire floor. There are only a handful of people in the whole province who can make him speak with such deference."
