Chapter 1198: The Li Family Thanks Jian Yiling
The Li Family visited Jian Yiling.
“Dr. Jian, thank you so much for saving my father. I don’t even know how to express our gratitude,” Grandpa Li’s eldest son said to Jian Yiling on behalf of his whole family.
At that moment, their attitude toward Jian Yiling had a one hundred and eighty-degree transformation.
“It’s part of my job,” Jian Yiling replied softly.
“No no, even if it’s your job, you still saved my father’s life. Therefore, you’re the savior of our family,” Grandpa Li’s eldest son said as he bowed deeply at Jian Yiling.
A thousand words could not be expressed in a few simple words. However, the Li family knew they owed Jian Yiling a great debt of gratitude.
“There’s no need to be polite.”
“No no, there’s definitely a need.”
Then, the Li family brought out banners they custom ordered for Jian Yiling.
On them were written [Brillant doctor], [Magical hands that bring back the dead] and [Kind doctor that helps citizens.]
Then, the eldest son of the Jian family left his contact information for Jian Yiling. He told Jian Yiling that she could contact him at any time if she needed help with anything.
When the Li family visited, Jian Yiling’s colleagues were also in the office. They applauded and cheered for Jian Yiling.
They all knew how precarious the situation was that day. Jian Yiling literally brought the old man back from the dead.
Furthermore, that operation was never Jian Yiling’s responsibility. Even if she stood on the sidelines and did nothing, no one would be able to say anything about her.
However, a person’s life mattered. Therefore, the Li family was indebted to Jian Yiling.
At this moment, Fei Qing passed by Jian Yiling’s office. She heard the applause and cheers from quite some distance away.
Fei Qing stood at the door for a while.
The applause and laughter inside the office were extraordinarily harsh to her ears.
Fei Qing quickened her steps and walked back to her office.
Bai Pingping came to Fei Qing’s office to look for her: “Dr. Fei, I just saw the Li Family. They gifted several banners to Jian Yiling. I saw some phrases related to being a miracle doctor.”
“I saw it.”
Why was Bai Pingping here to tell her about this?
Bai Pingping continued to speak to Fei Qing: “Dr. Fei, all of our colleagues are now saying that Jian Yiling deserves the number one spot in the surgical department.”
“I know!” Fei Qing exclaimed. She didn’t need Bai Pingping to tell her about this. There was no need to stress this point.
These comments did not just exist inside Lahaisen Hospital’s Beijing branch. Similar remarks were also all over the Internet.
It seemed as though the Li family took the initiative to promote Jian Yiling’s name.
And even if Jian Yiling asked the Li family to promote her name, either way, the public now had an overwhelmingly good opinion of Jian Yiling. They all thought that Jian Yiling was better than her.
Bai Pingping attempted to comfort Fei Qing: “Dr. Fei, don’t feel too bad about this. Grandpa Li’s case was definitely a fluke. She only completed a third of the surgery. You completed two-thirds of it! She just finished the surgery off!”

“I’m alright,” Fei Qing emphasized. She didn’t want others to see her being depressed over her failure.
“That’s good,” Bai Pingping said. Then, she gave Fei Qing a suggestion: “Apparently, our colleagues invited Jian Yiling to the team building event next week. The location of the team building event is at West Mountain Lake. I heard that Jian Yiling doesn’t know how to swim.”
Bai Pingping was evidently hinting at something.
“What kind of thoughts are you thinking?”
“I don’t mean anything else…” Bai Pingping hurriedly explained.
“Don’t try to use me as your gun. I know you hold a grudge against Jian Yiling after you were humiliated by her,” Fei Qing directly said to Bai Pingping.
The expression on Bai Pingping’s face became awkward as she said: “I really didn’t mean anything. Jian Yiling only said a few words to me that day. I wouldn’t take it to heart. I was just afraid that you would be in a bad mood. That’s why I came over to comfort you.”
