The concept of "letting the tumor grow a little longer" proposed by Lin Jie is novel and bold, and more importantly, it has the potential to succeed.

The only pity is that the patient, Qian Guanglin, backed out at the last minute and didn't dare to gamble.

Otherwise, this single patient case might have sparked a heated discussion internationally.

However, Ren Jianzhong knows that Qian Guanglin now regrets it so much that it's turned his stomach, and he even harbors resentment towards the hospital, blaming it for not insisting on persuading him back then.

The originally planned five million donation to the hospital after the surgery is now not even mentioned by Qian Guanglin.

As the main culprit who offered Qian Guanglin a second choice to complain about, Luo Shanshan is naturally not favored by the hospital leadership.

A while ago, Ren Jianzhong went to the Capital City to smooth out relations, preparing to have one of his papers published in a core medical journal, which is crucial for evaluating his professional title.

However, he was told that the level of his paper had a certain gap with the journal's requirements.

Then, the idea proposed by Lin Jie naturally popped up in Ren Jianzhong's mind. He merely mentioned it briefly, and it immediately generated significant interest from the journal's editor-in-chief.

Under the editor-in-chief's inquiry, Ren Jianzhong introduced the idea and the patient's case briefly.

Of course, in his introduction, this idea was something he thought of himself in a flash of inspiration.

The editor-in-chief slapped the table immediately, telling Ren Jianzhong that as long as this paper is written, it would not only be published in the journal's first issue but also receive priority recommendation on the cover!

Despite there being two to three dozen doctors as witnesses that the idea was expressed by Lin Jie, Ren Jianzhong is confident that he could overlook this with small favors and the influence of his family behind him.

However, Lin Jie is an unavoidable obstacle!

Ren Jianzhong is well aware that once this paper is published, it would become his Achilles' heel, a major point of vulnerability for others to attack him.

After much thought over the past few days, he finally came up with a plausible way to explain it.

The plan was that he and Lin Jie had known each other due to their mutual interest in German.

During their previous interactions, the idea of "letting the tumor grow a little longer" was inadvertently revealed to him during a German conversation.

As long as Lin Jie insists on this explanation, no matter how others attack, Ren Jianzhong can firmly claim to be the original creator of the concept.

With this little plot in mind, after reviewing the investigation information submitted by the private detective about Lin Jie this morning, Ren Jianzhong felt even more assured.

He took out a thick envelope, placed it on the dining table, and began: "Lin Jie, the concept you proposed has some research value."

"However, the value of this concept depends on who proposed it!"

"If outsiders know that this concept came out of the mouth of someone with only a middle school education, they will just consider it nonsense. If this concept were to be attributed to me, its value would be much greater."

Ren Jianzhong pushed the envelope towards Lin Jie and said, "As long as you do as I say, the five thousand yuan in this envelope is all yours!"

Seeing the bulging envelope, and thinking of the paper, Lin Jie immediately understood what Ren Jianzhong meant.

A feeling of disgust inexplicably rose in his heart. Just as he was about to refuse, Shen Lanruo's voice suddenly rang out.

"Medical research cannot tolerate any falsehood, and the consequences of researchers' falsifications will cost patients their health and even their lives!"

"This person has unscrupulous intentions. The greater the achievements of such a person, the greater the future damage. I detest people like this the most, Lin Jie, don't agree with him!"

"Sister Lanruo, don't worry, I definitely won't agree!"

After replying to Shen Lanruo in his heart, Lin Jie looked at Ren Jianzhong and ridiculed: "Last time, you said I didn't have any medical knowledge, and now you're offering five thousand yuan for this idea that goes against common sense!"

"What a change of heart!"

Seeing Ren Jianzhong's face darkening, Lin Jie felt an inexplicable sense of delight and said, "Put your money away. I won't let you have this idea, no matter how much you are willing to pay."

"As a doctor whose duty is to save lives, you must avoid impure motives. What you're doing is highly irresponsible to the patients..."

Ren Jianzhong's face grew darker as he took out a thicker envelope and interrupted Lin Jie's reprimand, saying coldly: "These two envelopes total fifteen thousand yuan, and I can give it all to you!"

"Lin Jie, a person needs to know when to be satisfied. Overeating won't be good for your fragile heart that hasn't been transplanted for long!"

He raised an eyebrow, stating arrogantly: "To be honest, I can easily publish that paper without your consent."

"Believe it or not, when the paper is published, those doctors present at the time will all unanimously claim that the idea was mine and has nothing to do with you, the little translator?"

Lin Jie said nothing and simply tossed a fry into his mouth, completely ignoring Ren Jianzhong's words.

Being so blatantly ignored, Ren Jianzhong was furious, his face turning ashen, and even the veins on his forehead were bulging.

He snarled softly: "Lin Jie, you probably don't even know who I really am, do you?"

"Then let me tell you, my father, Ren Maoshi, is a lifelong professor at Binhai University Medical School, the vice dean, Binhai University Affiliated Medical College's vice dean."

"To put it this way, in the whole of Binhai City, at least half of the doctors with any kind of achievement are my father's students."

"Never naively think that there would be any doctor present who would come forward to testify against me for your sake! This is a very realistic, very realistic society."

With a look of charity, Ren Jianzhong said: "This fifteen thousand is enough to cover your medication for three to four months!"

"Don't even think about raising the price, in my heart, you're not worth even five thousand!"

"I'm just showing pity because you're a pathetic person being raised by your disabled sister. I couldn't bear it and felt sorry for you, that's all."

These words truly angered Lin Jie!

If not for the difference in their physical builds that made him no match for him, Lin Jie would have jumped up, given him a high-flying kick, followed by a heavy blow to the chest.

Lin Jie took a few deep breaths to calm his emotions and retaliated: "You may have an impressive father, but if your plagiarism and theft are exposed, if your father shields you, then he is just so-so!"

"If he is an upright person, then the one who should be scared, should be you!"

"Perhaps many doctors, including Director Jiang, might not dare to testify because of various concerns, but there is one person who will surely speak up for me!"

"You mean Luo Shanshan?"

Ren Jianzhong sneered: "She is now like a rat crossing the street at the hospital, with no leader recognizing her, and even she is having a hard time."

With a smug expression, he dismissively said: "Even if she stands up for you, if only one person speaks for you while two or three dozen cheer for me, given your education and circumstances, who do you think the uninformed outsiders would believe?"

Lin Jie snorted and sarcastically said: "I now strongly suspect you got into the medical school due to your father's influence, passing as a sports specialty student who was given a spot."

"You've forgotten the most important person!"

"Who?"

"Dr. Wolfgang von Goebbels!"
