Looking at the ten thousand yuan transferred in via WeChat, Lin Jie was delighted, and even his aversion toward Ren Jianzhong, who had targeted him, lessened a bit.

A happy Lin Jie sweetly said, "Sister Yang Leyi, you should add my WeChat too. During this game, you were an important participant and deserve a reward!"

Yang Leyi was initially planning to decline!

But she immediately thought that behind these people stood renowned doctors from big hospitals.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to establish a contact channel might be useful in the future. So, Yang Leyi gratefully thanked Lin Jie and added him on WeChat.

Lin Jie transferred two thousand to her via WeChat!

After this game, Chen Lan, Gao Xiaobo, Lu Kaicheng, Li Hetong, and others were no longer resistant to Lin Jie, casually discussing various topics with him, although Lin Jie mostly just listened without speaking.

Time passed without them noticing, and the keen-eared Chen Lan heard footsteps coming from the stairs and immediately signaled everyone to stop talking, standing up to greet the arrivals.

Soon, Hu Yuanqing, Jiang Hao, Qin Binglai, and Qi Xingfen came down the stairs and appeared in the reception room!

At this moment, Yang Leyi also walked in from outside and said, "Everyone, the midnight snack is ready. Please feel free to help yourselves in the dining room!"

It was already past midnight, and everyone felt a bit hungry, so they followed Yang Leyi to the dining room.

Lin Jie was a bit surprised to find that it was buffet-style here.

In the large dining room that could accommodate thirty to forty people, on the long table on the west side, were laid out twenty to thirty kinds of dishes and foods for the taking, cold dishes, seafood, meat dishes, vegetarian dishes, snacks, soups, etc., everything was available!

"The life of the wealthy is truly something else!"

Feeling a sense of wonder, Lin Jie only picked a few fried dumplings, a plate of fruit salad, and a bowl of wonton soup before returning to the dining table to eat.

He noticed that whether it was Hu Yuanqing, Jiang Hao, Qi Xingfen, or Chen Lan, Li Hetong, etc., none of them took much food, and they didn't take any lavish meats or seafood, only some light vegetarian foods!

At this time, eating too much, eating too greasy isn't good for the body. Each of the doctors was quite mindful of health maintenance!

Occasionally, there was the sound of spoons touching ceramic bowls in the dining room, but no one spoke as they quietly ate their food!

After about ten minutes, Lin Jie and Hu Yuanqing finished their midnight snack and went to the lawn outside the villa to feel the night breeze!

"In half an hour at the quickest, or an hour at the slowest, the five judges will have a result!"

Clenching his fist lightly, Hu Yuanqing said, "Half a month ago, when facing such a tumor, I only had thirty to forty percent confidence, but now, I dare not say ninety percent, but seventy to eighty percent confidence I still have!"

"I feel that this time, I can win."

Lin Jie didn't say anything, feeling that whatever he said wouldn't be suitable, as it might seem like boasting about his own achievements!

The two stood outside the villa, quietly watching the dim starlit night sky until they were called back inside the villa.

Lin Jie and Hu Yuanqing walked into the reception room, where several professors were already present.

Professor Ren looked at Hu Yuanqing, then at Qin Binglai, and said in a deep voice, "This time, a special situation has arisen in the scheme evaluation. We five find the schemes of Dr. Hu and Dr. Qin to be equal in their own ways, and it's hard to make a decision."

"Our common evaluation is that Dr. Hu's scheme is somewhat too aggressive! Whereas Dr. Qin's scheme is the opposite, somewhat too conservative, but both of their schemes are quite excellent!"

Hu Yuanqing took a deep breath and said, "This is because I have made some breakthroughs in my medical skills recently. This surgical proposal for me is not risky, but something I'm genuinely confident about!"

This concerns tens of millions in interests. Unwilling to show weakness, Qin Binglai rebutted, "With Mr. Tan's status, he must not become your test subject. Stability should be the top priority!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Yuanqing's face grew unpleasant, and he instinctively wanted to retort!

At this moment, Professor Chen, standing to the side, coughed and said, "Dr. Qin, I suggest you research a few cases Dr. Hu recently completed, and you'll know he's not exaggerating!"

Professor Ren also nodded in agreement and said, "Inviting you four here was mainly based on the surgical cases you've completed in the past year!"

"Dr. Hu's recent performance in the operating room indeed shows that his surgical ability has made considerable breakthroughs!"

"However, this breakthrough is quite recent, and we have some concerns about the stability of his operations. Otherwise, we wouldn't be hesitating between the two schemes!

With two professors speaking in support of Hu Yuanqing, Qin Binglai found it inappropriate to say more!

Lin Jie understood that a conservative approach in Qin Binglai's scheme meant the patient's life was not endangered.

But the downside is that the tumor removal is not thorough, with a significant risk of recurrence, and the subsequent dosage and frequency of chemotherapy and radiation therapy will increase considerably, severely affecting the patient's post-operative quality of life!

Whereas Hu Yuanqing's aggressive surgical approach implied a clean tumor removal, granting the patient a longer expected lifespan and better quality of life, but aggressiveness also represented danger; the patient might risk dying on the operating table.

Lin Jie somewhat understood the concerns of these professors!

If they chose Hu Yuanqing and the surgery succeeded, everyone would be delighted, but what if it failed?

If they chose Qin Binglai, Mr. Tan would face a lousy post-operative life and might hold deep resentment against them, just like the wealthy Qian Guanglin who now lives with a urine bag!

"We find it difficult to decide, so we've unanimously decided for you two to undergo an additional test!" announced Professor Ren loudly!

"What additional test?" Hu Yuanqing and Qin Binglai asked in unison!

Professor Ren chuckled and said, "Basic skills!"

He clapped his hands, and a young woman dressed in silk pajamas was carried in on a long table into the reception room.

To Lin Jie's surprise, the woman was covered with dozens of fine acupuncture needles, which upon closer inspection were not regular acupuncture needles, as the needles had tiny needle eyes at their backs.

Professor Ren smiled and said, "Cranial surgery requires exceptional coordination of hand and eye, steadiness and precision, as well as dexterity. I need not elaborate on this; you understand."

"Dr. Hu, Dr. Qin, the two of you need to use the surgical needle holder to thread surgical wires through all the needle eyes on her body, with the shortest time being the winner!"

Hu Yuanqing, full of fighting spirit, stared at Qin Binglai and said, "This method of competition is innovative, and I'm very willing to accept this challenge!"

Qin Binglai defiantly looked back, snorted, and said, "It's just a different version of the same thing; what's being tested is basic skills. In this regard, I don't fear anyone!"

Professor Ren slyly smiled and said, "If it were just this, it would be too simple for two surgical experts. Naturally, we need to add a little difficulty!"

With his words, a buzzing vibration sound suddenly filled the room, and everyone saw the long needles on the woman began to tremble incessantly.

For a moment, Chen Lan, Gao Xiaobo, Lu Kaicheng, Li Hetong, and others were stunned, while Hu Yuanqing and Qin Binglai, the parties in the competition, had expressions as heavy as ever!
