Chapter 313 - 312: Not Even a Welcome Banquet!

Chapter 313: Chapter 312: Not Even a Welcome Banquet!

Soon, the elevator reached the fifth floor.

Fang Li continued to lead the way to Han Qingxuan’s office door, where he gently knocked three times, received a reply from inside, and then turned to Xia Jinjin, saying, “Please come in.”

Xia Jinjin nodded in thanks and pushed the door open to enter.

Wang Lulu also followed in, immediately spotting Han Qingxuan sitting behind the desk.

His expression was stern, his appearance harsh, his hands crossed and placed near his mouth, exuding an oppressive authority from inside out.

Wang Lulu had initially planned to linger under the pretense of delivering documents, but at the mere glance from Han Qingxuan, her legs involuntarily trembled, and after leaving the documents behind, she hurried out of the office.

Only once she was outside the office, in a deserted area, did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Inside the office.

Upon seeing Xia Jinjin, Han Qingxuan rose to his feet and began politely, “Welcome to Kyoto City Hospital…”

He said a bunch of pleasantries, yet they lacked the warmth Xia Jinjin had anticipated.

Xia Jinjin felt puzzled inside, but she did not show it, smiling and exchanging polite remarks with Han Qingxuan.

After that, Han Qingxuan immediately discussed work-related matters with Xia Jinjin and then indicated that she could start working in the afternoon, “Would you like me to find two assistants for you, or would you prefer to choose them yourself?”

Xia Jinjin hadn’t expected Han Qingxuan to be so brusque with her.

Usually, whenever she visited any hospital, even if they weren’t extremely respectful, they would certainly organize a welcome banquet and introduce her to the entire department…

It was the first time someone like Han Qingxuan had gotten straight to work.

Xia Jinjin pursed her lips, her face growing somewhat sullen.

But since Kyoto City Hospital was the best hospital in Capital City, and she had no better options, she could only respond, “I’ll choose them myself.”

Han Qingxuan, seeming not to notice her displeased expression, said, “Alright, I will instruct Assistant Fang to compile the medical staff data from the three departments, and you can choose from them. Now, I’ll have him take you to your office to see if there’s anything unsuitable.”

It was as if he couldn’t even bother with any additional words!

Having never been treated with such disdain, Xia Jinjin held back her anger and walked out.

Fang Li, already informed by Professor Han, was waiting at the door, “Miss Xia, please.”

Xia Jinjin glanced at Fang Li, feeling somewhat irritable, and remarked, “It’s no wonder Kyoto City Hospital is the best; it must have no shortage of talent.”

Fang Li only smiled and remained silent.

Xia Jinjin, feeling slighted, said no more.

Downstairs.

Wang Lulu was already waiting at the door of Xia Jinjin’s office.

The hospital had spread the word about Xia Jinjin’s workspace the day before; it was no secret.

As the elevator doors opened, Wang Lulu was about to greet her but paused upon seeing Xia Jinjin’s distressed expression, “Senior Sister Xia, what happened?”

Xia Jinjin didn’t reply; she just walked straight into the office.

Behind her, Fang Li did not follow inside but stood at the door, saying, “I’ll leave you here then. If you have any issues, you can speak directly to Professor Han.”

“Alright. Thank you,” Xia Jinjin responded stiffly.

Fang Li turned and left.

Wang Lulu then entered the office and quietly asked, “Senior Sister Xia, what happened?”

Xia Jinjin, feeling a build-up of frustration with nowhere to vent, didn’t care whether they were close or not and let everything out.

Wang Lulu, stunned, replied, “They didn’t throw you a welcome party? That’s really poor handling! But that Professor Han, I’ve heard he has always been tough and uncompromising, never showing a pleasant face to anyone; even Dean Lian has never seen him smile!”
