Divine Skill!

Shen Qiang was ecstatic with amazement.

So what if he didn't understand antiques and jewelry?

The Observation Skill he used for identifying medicinal ingredients could not only see the composition and age of objects but even the manufacturing process. This meant that if Shen Qiang ventured into the antique industry, he would never buy a fake!

But almost at the moment Shen Qiang realized this, a thundering dizziness struck his mind, and all the strength seemed to be drained from his body in an instant.

"Master, Master?"

In his daze, the voice of Qingxuan echoed in Shen Qiang's mind.

Feeling weak, Shen Qiang asked in his mind, "Qingxuan, what's wrong with me?"

Qingxuan replied in a delicate voice, "Master's cultivation is still shallow, and the True Qi is insufficient to sustain the prolonged use of techniques."

Shen Qiang said, "I see, how long will it take to recover?"

"With the governor and conception vessels open, under normal circumstances, you should recover after a good night's sleep," Qingxuan answered.

A night's sleep? That's probably one use every eight hours. Does it last even a second? Shen Qiang was somewhat uncertain.

At this time, the feeling of weakness and dizziness was gradually fading.

As Shen Qiang lifted his gaze, he saw campus beauty Xin Xiaoting looking coldly at Zhang Liwei and saying, "How much it's worth has nothing to do with me. This is the last time I'm saying this: we are not suitable. Please stop harassing me, or I will call the police."

Zhang Liwei was stunned, then he saw Shen Qiang looking at him with a beaming smile.

Recalling how the jade-like hand of the pure Jade Girl Xin Xiaoting, untouched by any man throughout her four years at university, had just been held by Shen Qiang, Zhang Liwei stood up and shot Shen Qiang a glare before he softly said.

"Xiaoting, don't reject me in haste. You must understand, even if someone is good at medicine and can be a doctor, their monthly salary is just a few thousand yuan. Even if he lived without eating or drinking, he couldn't afford such a ring."

"Don't call me Xiaoting." The campus beauty Xin Xiaoting's face grew cold as she said, "We are not close, and I would like you to stay away from me. Do I need to call the police to make you understand?"

Zhao Hui, standing by and watching the excitement, couldn't help but let out a snicker.

Zhang Liwei's face turned red in an instant, and in a burst of embarrassed rage, he suddenly bellowed, "Xin Xiaoting! In what way am I not good enough? I give you flowers every day; can't I compare with Shen Qiang?"

Almost at the same time as Shen Qiang was taken aback.

Xin Xiaoting said with a cold face, "Yes, you simply can't compare with him."

Shen Qiang was stunned.

Zhang Liwei was furious, pointing at Shen Qiang and saying, "You'll regret this! Even if Shen Qiang's grades are better than mine, even if he can perform surgery, so what? He will never be able to afford the ring that I can buy for you just like that."

"Get lost!" Xin Xiaoting's face turned frosty.

As Zhang Liwei turned to leave, he passed by Shen Qiang.

Shen Qiang, looking indifferent, said, "If you think spending 1.2 million to buy a glass bead is something to boast about, I welcome you to show off to me anytime."

Zhang Liwei's face went cold when he heard Shen Qiang's words, and in a cold tone, he said, "Grapes that can't be reached are always sour. So what if Shen Qiang is good at surgery? He's still just a poor loser."

"Saying I spent 1.2 million on a glass bead? If you're so capable, go buy one too! I have money, I'm willing to spend it, and I have the authenticity certificate from the authority. Have you, a poor loser, never seen one before?"

Shen Qiang laughed: "If you're so confident, why not have it appraised somewhere else?"

Staring intently at Shen Qiang, Zhang Liwei chuckled, "Fine, you poor loser have never seen money, have you? You don't believe this ring is worth 1.2 million, do you?"

"I'll go to the provincial appraisal center for an appraisal tomorrow, and when the results come out, I'll smash the appraisal certificate in your face. I'll show a person like you who could never afford it what real jewelry is."

Shen Qiang spoke coldly, "Fine, I'll be waiting."

Zhang Liwei sneered and turned to leave.

At that moment, the department's beauty, Xin Xiaoting, approached and hesitantly said to Shen Qiang, "Shen Qiang, I didn't mean to drag you into this."

Shen Qiang laughed, "I have no interest in meddling in your affairs either. It's just that he always brings me up when he talks, and I don't want to endure it anymore."

Xin Xiaoting was somewhat embarrassed and seemed unsure of what to say.

Then Zhao Hui suddenly interjected, "Shen Qiang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that during the surgery."

Shen Qiang laughed, "There's nothing to apologize for. Isn't the workplace all about scheming and strategizing? Since we're all interns, of course everyone wants to find a way to seize learning opportunities, so I really don't blame you."

"Because we're not friends at all, just rivals." Having said that, Shen Qiang smiled at Xin Xiaoting and said, "I'm off to do rounds, you guys chat."

Leaving the office.

Shen Qiang went to check on the patient in ward 16, who hadn't completely woken up from the anesthesia yet.

After explaining some precautions to the beautiful young wife, it was already noon.

He went down to the cafeteria alone.

Upon entering the cafeteria, he encountered other interns. Many of them smiled at Shen Qiang, and some secretly gave him a thumbs-up across their chests.

Yet no one came over to talk to Shen Qiang.

This strange situation puzzled Shen Qiang, but then he looked up to see the cold stares of Wang, the head of oncology, and Doctor Liu, who were in the line for food.

Shen Qiang could not be bothered with them.

He went to get his own food, and just then, with a faint fragrance, Xin Xiaoting who he was interning with squeezed over. Her face was slightly red as she softly said, "Shen Qiang, can we have lunch together?"

Seeing her nervous and somewhat reserved demeanor, Shen Qiang laughed, "Sure."

After getting their meals.

The two found a spot near the windows in the cafeteria and had just sat down, not yet having the chance to speak.

Lv Shuyao, the big-eyed instrument nurse who assisted with Shen Qiang's surgery, hurried over in just a few strides.

Smiling at Shen Qiang, the charming Lv Shuyao asked, "May I sit here?"

Seeing Shen Qiang instinctively glance at Xin Xiaoting, the playful Lv Shuyao immediately said to her, "Can I sit here and eat with you guys?"

Xin Xiaoting quickly replied, "Sure."

"Thank you." Lv Shuyao, with a smile curving her eyes, sat down unreservedly beside Shen Qiang and teasingly said, "Doctor Shen, I thought you'd invite me to lunch."

Shen Qiang chuckled, not expecting Lv Shuyao to be so forward.

But at this moment, Doctor Liu, who sat nearby, burst out laughing with a snort and then said with scorn, "Hah? He could afford to treat you to a meal?"

Wang, the head of the department, also laughed, "Just look at those rotten shoes on his feet. A guy who can't even afford a decent pair of shoes won't have the money to treat you to a meal."

As he spoke, Wang proudly pulled out the latest model iPhone from his pocket, grinned at Lv Shuyao, and said, "How about I add you on WeChat, Nurse Lv, and treat you to a big pot chicken tonight?"

The spirited Lv Shuyao's face turned cold, and she retorted sharply, "I don't know you, so don't talk to me."

Wang replied coldly, "I'm just kindly warning you, don't get fooled by a poor boy."

Lv Shuyao ignored him.

But Shen Qiang, who had been silent until then, turned to Wang and coldly said, "Liu Bei sold straw sandals, Li Jiacheng ran a street stall. Even if I, Shen Qiang, am broke now, it doesn't mean I will be forever! Whereas some people get by on dirty money from bribes and kickbacks, inevitably facing retribution one day!"
