"What? The Dean is going to come in person?"
Upon hearing this news, Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, but immediately followed by a surge of great joy.
From the information he had obtained through soul searching earlier, he knew that this so-called Dean must have an inseparable connection with the Ghost God Sect.
He had been working at the Fifth Hospital for so long, yet he hadn't even seen the Dean's face once.
He never expected to have the chance to get close to him now!
"That's right, so this time, you must perform well."
"Someone previously criticized your jail time in front of the Vice Dean, so this opportunity is very important for your permanent position. Remember this, okay?"
"As long as you perform well in front of the Dean, your job will truly be stable."
Xie Yun, afraid that Lin Chen would not take this meeting seriously, spoke with earnest advice.
Although she had not known Lin Chen for long and their working time together was limited, she still had some understanding of his character.
Although he seemed cold on the outside, he was very good to many poor patients.
"I understand. Thank you, Doctor Xie, for the reminder."
Hearing Xie Yun's concerned words, Lin Chen nodded slightly and agreed.
Of course, he had to perform well in front of this Dean, otherwise, how could he gain his trust?
"By the way, Doctor Xie, can you tell me specifically what I need to pay attention to regarding our Dean?"
Lin Chen then looked up at Xie Yun and asked proactively.
"Our Dean's surname is Zhou. As for what needs special attention?"
"There doesn't seem to be anything particular to note. Our Dean has a gentle temper and high prestige in the hospital."
After a brief consideration, Xie Yun shared her thoughts.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Doctor Xie, for your guidance. I will be there on time tomorrow!"
Hearing Xie Yun's explanation, Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and said no more.
If this Dean was indeed one of the culprits who framed his master back then, then he would undoubtedly be an evil cultivator.
And all evil cultivators would generally have peculiar traits.
Xie Yun might not know now, but it didn't mean this Dean didn't have any.
It was very possible that the other party was just hiding it too well!
The next morning after work, Lin Chen and Xie Yun packed some simple medical equipment and headed to the underground parking lot.
Before long, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of them.
"Are you two Doctor Xie and Doctor Lin? I am the steward of the Liu family, sent by the family head to pick you up."
The co-pilot's door opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit got out and bowed to them.
"Ah? The Liu family? Sorry, we are here to see Old Master Liu today."
Hearing the steward's words, Xie Yun quickly explained.
"Hehehe, Doctor Xie, that's correct. Our old master is cautious and concealed the true information to prevent some ill-intentioned individuals. Please forgive us."
Seeing the surprised Xie Yun, the steward seemed to take it for granted and explained.
"Please get in the car. Dean Zhou is already waiting at home."
"If you don't believe me, you can call Dean Zhou immediately to verify."
With that, the steward bowed again and opened the car door, making a gesture for them to get in.
"So that's how it is. Let's get in the car then, Lin Chen."
Hearing the steward mention Dean Zhou's name, Xie Yun no longer doubted and directly led Lin Chen into the car.
The Rolls-Royce started and sped towards the suburbs.
In the car, Xie Yun's face was solemn, and she said to Lin Chen beside her, "Lin Chen, the Liu family is a leading prominent family in Hangcheng. When we meet Old Master Liu later, be sure not to lose your manners."
"Don't worry, I understand."
Hearing Xie Yun's explanation, Lin Chen nodded slightly.
However, in his heart, he didn't have much of a good impression of this Old Master Liu.
As the head of the foremost family in Hangcheng, he even concealed his identity from doctors when seeking medical treatment. This could only mean one thing!
This Old Master Liu had a guilty conscience!
Otherwise, he would never be so cautious.
Not long after, the Rolls-Royce stopped in front of a luxurious manor.
As soon as Lin Chen got out of the car, he felt several spiritual senses probing from within the manor.
There was no doubt that there were several cultivators stationed in this manor!
However, the cultivation of these individuals was not high; they were all at the Qi Condensation stage.
In front of the current Lin Chen, these people were no more than slightly larger ants.
"Please come in, the old master and Dean Zhou are in the living room."
The steward, acting diligently, led Lin Chen and Xie Yun to the reception hall.
As soon as he entered, Lin Chen's eyes instinctively narrowed.
In the living room, two old men in their seventies or eighties were sitting on the sofa.
One of them was extremely thin, with sallow skin and slender fingers, looking terrifying.
The other, however, looked energetic and spirited.
With just one glance, Lin Chen could be certain that these two were cultivators and possessed cultivation techniques!
"Greetings, Old Master Liu and Dean Zhou. I am Xie Yun."
Upon seeing the two elders, Xie Yun greeted them proactively with Lin Chen.
"Hehehe, Doctor Xie, no need for such formalities. I've troubled you by inviting you here today. Don't be too polite, make yourself at home."
Old Master Liu stood up, his face sallow, but he still managed a smile.
However, the smile looked somewhat unsettling.
"Thank you, Old Master Liu."
"This is Lin Chen, my assistant, and also a skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor."
Xie Yun then quickly introduced Lin Chen.
As Xie Yun introduced him, Lin Chen felt two spiritual senses pressing down on him.
"One at the middle Foundation Establishment stage, and the other at the late Foundation Establishment stage?"
"When did Hangcheng gain so many experts?"
Sensing the cultivation levels of these two spiritual senses, Lin Chen was slightly surprised.
Good heavens, his master had personally told him that the spiritual energy in the mortal world was now depleted, and cultivation for cultivators was extremely difficult.
Any cultivator in the outside world who could reach the Qi Condensation stage was considered a genius among geniuses!
How could he have encountered two Foundation Establishment cultivators now?
However, with the Nine Dragon Ring, a treasure he possessed, Lin Chen was not worried about his cultivation being exposed.
His master had once told him that with the Nine Dragon Ring, unless someone's cultivation was two major realms higher than his, they would definitely not be able to see through his cultivation!
"Hehehe, Doctor Lin, thank you for making this trip. After this is done, there will be a generous reward!"
Sensing an ordinary person's aura from Lin Chen, Old Master Liu narrowed his eyes and spoke with great politeness.
