Chapter 249: Chapter 250: Abandoned by All (Extra for 6000 monthly passes), After all, it was a job fair, and the appearance of Dong Jia and Luo Zhou was not an isolated incident. Soon, someone spotted Chen Cang at the job fair, and people started inquiring one after another., Chen Cang was very discreet; he didn’t think his role in the emergency department at the provincial hospital made him particularly special. He was just there to help out today., As for scouting talent? Having a chat? Leveraging connections?, He knew his own weight., To put it bluntly, what was he anyway?, Among the 1,400 staff and hundreds of doctors at the provincial hospital, he was just an ordinary employee. What say could he possibly have?, So Chen Cang certainly didn’t make any grand claims or speak recklessly., But, Chen Cang not speaking recklessly didn’t mean others wouldn’t let their imaginations run wild., Suddenly, the news of Chen Cang’s appearance at the job fair blew up in the class group chat., Everyone was marveling at how awesome Chen Cang was!, After all, Chen Cang seemed to be doing quite well among the students, as he had already secured a stable job, a position in a provincial tertiary hospital—how proud he must be., At that time, Chen Cang’s phone began to receive an incessant stream of private messages with all kinds of requests whether he could pull some strings, introduce them to the head of the emergency department, or share any internal resources., Chen Cang didn’t reply, feeling it inappropriate. After pondering, he simply said, “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”, Those who understood replied with a smiley face to show their understanding; those who didn’t simply sent a “hehe” to signify their understanding., Chen Cang just laughed it off indifferently; there was no need to explain to those who didn’t understand., After all, how could you explain it to such people?, What good would explanations do?, With that mindset, they only cared for themselves; they never considered how it might affect you or others., Being friends with such people?, There’s no need., But suddenly, the news that Chen Cang had gotten a permanent position at the provincial hospital after his undergraduate studies spread, and the group chat became incredibly lively with everyone discussing it., Some who were sarcastic said that he was now too good for his old classmates, implying that he looked down on them since he was appointed by the hospital to pursue postgraduate studies and was carrying all sorts of ostentatious attitudes., At first, Chen Cang replied in the group chat, but later, he simply couldn’t be bothered and left the group., After all, it’s fine to maintain good relations with those you can, and there’s no harm in letting go of those you cannot., This society really does have all sorts of people., It’s just that their hearts are too sour to bear seeing you doing better than them, and jealousy begins to grow., After all, Chen Cang didn’t pursue postgraduate studies after college, whereas they had all graduated from their masters’ programs by now., So what about now?, Chen Cang had a permanent position, and not just any position, but one at a provincial tertiary hospital—and he would have a graduate degree in a few years as well!, And those who were feeling imbalanced couldn’t believe that after all the effort to get their masters, they still had a harder time finding jobs than an undergraduate, which was unsettling for them., But we’re all ordinary people; nothing comes without hard work., Whose success is not earned through their own blood, sweat, and tears?, However, this world is diverse, and you cannot control other people’s thoughts., Chen Cang did not bother with these things., Seeing Chen Cang leaving the group suddenly stirred things up., Everyone fell silent, no longer chatting and consulting cheerfully as before. They couldn’t help but scoff at facing such attitudes, turning off WeChat and ceasing to speak., Ma Zhizheng, upon seeing Chen Cang leave the group, couldn’t help but comment, “What’s the big deal? It’s just a position in the system. We haven’t even started our system entrance exams yet. So full of yourself, leaving the group like you’re something special. You can barely manage to help an old classmate, how impressive!”, Xu Huihui threw in, “Even Geng Yan didn’t say anything, and she’s a postgraduate from Xiehe, with a husband who’s a postdoctoral fellow at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Yet she doesn’t put on airs like this, such petty triumph.”, Ma Zhizheng quickly added, “I suddenly realize how wise Geng Yan was to break up with him. He’s not worthy of her. Now strutting around in the emergency department of the provincial hospital, what a great department!”, At this time, Geng Yan, who rarely spoke, sent a message: “Enough already, did they offend you or something?”, Geng Yan had read all the messages from the beginning, and to be honest, she was somewhat surprised that Chen Cang could get into Xiehe Second Hospital, let alone secure a position. After all, jobs were really hard to find nowadays, especially for college graduates., But seeing others speak like that, she also felt somewhat disdainful., After saying that, Geng Yan left the group chat too., Now that really stirred things up., Ma Zhizheng and Xu Huihui were both dumbfounded—what the heck was going on?, At this point, Luo Zhou couldn’t help saying, “Chen Cang is just awesome! He was better than you in school and he’s still better than you now that he’s working!”, After that, he also left the group chat!, Lin He just laughed and sent a “Heh, so sour!”, Then he left the group chat as well., Ma Zhizheng’s face turned red—he hadn’t expected the conversation to take such a turn!, Not long after, about half of the fifty-something people in the class group chat had left, and many of the others probably muted the chat and stayed silent., Ma Zhizheng and Xu Huihui were dumbfounded; this was not the outcome they had anticipated., Looking out for himself, Ma Zhizheng typed: “Heh, talk about putting on airs, looking down on others like a snob, just because you think Chen Cang got a position now, huh? Cut it out! Everyone’s rushing to be a bootlicker, aren’t they?”, At this time, a classmate said, “You really are a failure as a person, not even realizing what the problem is. Those three years of grad school really went to waste.”, After saying that, they didn’t stick around and left the group chat immediately., Ma Zhizheng was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode!, Chen Cang had left the group chat without paying any attention to whoever said whatever., People like that just lacked a proper set of values; why say anything more when you’re not on the same wavelength?, Before long, Chen Cang found himself added to a new group chat., Luo Zhou smiled and said, “This group is much more peaceful.”, Everyone laughed and started chatting., That was when Chen Cang finally understood what had happened., He felt moved for a moment; after all, most people are good, but every class has one or two who like to stir up trouble, always thinking they’re something special., Chen Cang chuckled and couldn’t help saying, “Thanks, everyone.”, Dong Jia smiled slightly: “Red packets, red packets! Nothing speaks louder than red packets.”, Everyone was teasing and egging him on., Chen Cang was also happy; he wasn’t the same as before. With a fortune of a million, Zhixin Plastic Surgery Hospital had settled all his payments by September first. Conservatively estimating, Chen Cang’s account held over a million., Chen Cang smiled and started sending a few big red packets of 200 each to the group chat., Originally, Dong Jia was just joking, and everyone else was playfully joining in., But who would have thought Chen Cang would be so generous?, “Chen the boss is awesome!”, “Did Boss Chen snag a wealthy woman?”, “It’s possible, after all, Chen Cang is quite handsome, has the makings of a pretty boy!”, Chen Cang was shocked—how the hell did you guys find out?, And to tell the truth, if not for that rich lady, he really wouldn’t have so much money…, ps: Hehe, just updated four chapters, not sure if there will be any tomorrow, the monthly ticket bill is almost paid—heehee., Also, I’ve realized I’m not cut out for big projects, writing a few chapters and publishing them right away; I can’t save up any… I’ll have to keep things under wraps from now on…
