For a moment, Director Wang was stunned, and Doctor Liu was even more agape. Many medical staff eating in the cafeteria watched Shen Qiang with eyes full of surprise.

The crying little girl was a mix of devastated and delighted, yet she cried even harder.

She took the money from Shen Qiang's hand, choking up, "Brother, thank you. What's your name? I'll definitely pay you back tomorrow."

Shen Qiang smiled indifferently and said, "No need to pay it back, go save the person quickly."

Upon hearing this, the little girl was startled, and the surrounding medical staff's eyes widened.

"Twenty thousand yuan not to be paid back? My monthly salary plus bonuses is just over three thousand!"

"Damn, isn't Shen Qiang so poor that he can't even afford shoes?"

"Director Wang and Doctor Liu, those two idiots, someone casually hands over twenty thousand and says no need to pay it back, and with their little prowess, they still look down on others, are their brains filled with water?"

Almost simultaneously as everyone was astonished, Shen Qiang smiled at the little girl, "Don't just stand there, saving lives is what's important."

Upon hearing this, the little girl nodded vigorously, "Brother, thank you, I'll remember you."

Having said that, the little girl turned and rushed off to make the payment.

She had just walked away.

Standing next to Shen Qiang, Lv Shuyao stepped forward, and looking at the dazed Director Wang, she cooed, "Some people, if they're shameless, there really is no getting to them."

"Director Wang, don't you brag about spending tens of thousands like it's nothing? When that little girl begged you just now, what did you say, oh, twenty thousand isn't a small amount."

Director Wang's face instantly turned red, and he gritted his teeth, "My money, how I spend it is my business."

Lv Shuyao laughed, "If you can't afford it, just say so. We're all adults here, we all understand."

Glancing at the speechless Doctor Liu, Lv Shuyao chuckled, "And Doctor Liu, what did you say just now? You were going to give Shen Qiang two hundred as charity? If you really had the heart to give, why didn't you give that little girl twenty thousand?"

Upon hearing this, Doctor Liu gritted his teeth, "This has nothing to do with you!"

Lv Shuyao laughed, "Yes, it really has nothing to do with me, but what were you saying earlier? Just because Shen Qiang can easily give twenty thousand to a stranger to save a life, do you think he couldn't afford the same phone as you?"

"He doesn't buy it because truly capable people never need to flaunt with phones!"

Upon hearing this, the other onlookers also began discussing animatedly.

"That's the truth, the truly wealthy sit there, talking about their listed companies and their projects. Which wealthy boss would bother to show off a phone?"

"Ha, just the folks working at our hospital, when you get down to it, aren't they just wage earners at a private company? Showing off phones, they can only bully interns who come from average homes and haven't started working properly yet."

The surrounding chatter made Director Wang's face turn from red to purple, and he mocked through clenched teeth, "Who knows if he borrowed it from loan sharks?"

Upon hearing this, Xin Xiaoting coldly said, "It doesn't matter how Shen Qiang got his money, the important thing is that he was willing to use it to save someone."

"According to hospital regulations, once any patient is in the emergency room, an effort should be made to save them at all costs, but aside from flaunting your trivial capital, Director Wang, what have you done?"

"Mocking an intern for being penniless, telling the patient's family that raising money was essential, have you no shame?"

As soon as Xin Xiaoting said this, the surrounding whispers instantly grew louder.

"People really can't be compared. Director Wang has money, buys a phone and shows off, but look at that intern, dressed simply, unremarkable in appearance, but he had the courage to take out money to save someone when it mattered."

"Exactly, just on this point alone, if Director Wang were to compare himself with this intern, he would be on a much lower intellectual level."

"Compare my ass, the hospital has reiterated time and again that once you're in the emergency room, you must do everything to save lives, money should not be a barrier. Director Wang is just cold-faced and cold-assed because he thinks he's the director, he has the power, he's so incredible; what's he really worth?"

In the midst of the surrounding chatter, an embarrassed Director Wang raised his arm high, about to smash his phone.

But at the last moment, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Lv Shuyao laughed, "Oh, Director Wang, didn't you say you could throw as many of these phones as you wanted? Well, go on then, smash it."

Clenching his teeth, Director Wang turned to leave without saying a word.

At that moment, the previously silent Shen Qiang chuckled, "Wait a minute, Director Wang, with all your money and power, I just want to know, when exactly are you going to fire me?"

Director Wang's figure shook, then he quickened his pace to escape. Hearing this, Doctor Liu also couldn't stay any longer. He hurriedly followed behind Director Wang, dejectedly making his exit.

They had barely gone far when a burst of laughter erupted at the entrance of the cafeteria.

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Director Wang is truly a joke. You're called Shen Qiang, right? You don't need to stoop to his level. The workplace is like a battlefield, there are many shameless people."

"The Director of the Oncology Department? He's famously pretentious in the hospital. Apart from bullying colleagues and interns, he just shows off. Normally, people don't even want to deal with him. You shouldn't either."

"Well done, there are too few doctors who dare to dig into their own pockets to save people nowadays. Although that little girl will definitely pay you back, the fact that you dared to say the money needn't be returned shows a generosity that not just anyone can match."

Many medical staff, whether acquainted with him or not, came up to talk to Shen Qiang.

A good-looking nurse from another floor even came directly to ask Shen Qiang for his contact information.

Shen Qiang didn't see anything inappropriate in this, and naturally gave his contact information to the nurse.

But no sooner had he finished giving it than he noticed that Lv Shuyao and Xin Xiaoting, the belle of his department, had suddenly started acting a bit off, blocking other female nurses who wanted to approach him.

Not only that, Lv Shuyao grabbed onto Shen Qiang's left arm and coyly said to Xin Xiaoting, "I'm hungry. You came to the cafeteria to eat too, right?"

Xin Xiaoting, clearly displeased, looked at her holding Shen Qiang's arm and frowned, "Yeah, why else would I come to the cafeteria if not to eat?"

Hearing this, Lv Shuyao, with a sly and triumphant smile, said, "Then you better hurry up and eat."

After saying that, she turned and walked away with Shen Qiang, laughing, "Shen Qiang, hurry up, I bought you a pair of shoes. Come try them on and see if they fit."

Xin Xiaoting, immediately realizing she had been played by Lv Shuyao, stood there stunned, watching incredulously as Shen Qiang was pulled away and said in a mix of anger and urgency, "Shen Qiang, the storage box in the duty room..."

But just then, Xin Xiaoting suddenly saw Lv Shuyao, who was hurriedly pulling Shen Qiang away, looking back at her with a mocking and smug expression, which made her forcibly swallow the rest of her words in resentment.
