5 Busy little doctor (1/2)
After experiencing such a powerful impact from the white wine yesterday, Zhang Fan only felt despair when faced with alcohol. He truly had zero alcohol tolerance.
It was difficult for Zhang Fan to refuse his direct boss's attempt to make him drink alcohol, but a few ethnic girls were another matter for Zhang Fan the food seller. He used his silver tongue to finally convince the ethnic girl serving him to drink his serving in his stead. However, she wasn't actually convinced, as she only drank it out of annoyance.
Zhang Fan was someone talkative who could chatter on and on without shutting up. The ethnic girl who had a direct personality got angry and instantly downed the bowl of wine in one gulp, and then walked off to serve the next person while looking at him condescendingly.
Of course, her condescending attitude was completely unable to affect Zhang Fan's ravenous appetite. He ate, ate, and continuously ate.
The local ethnic people were all highly skilled at singing and dancing. These girls were not only skilled singers, they even pulled their guests out to dance along with them in their joy at singing. But while everyone else was listening to the song, Zhang Fan was busy eating. While everyone else was dancing, Zhang Fan was still busy eating.
The ethnic girls looked down on Zhang Fan even more after seeing what a pig he was. Not a single girl invited him to dance. However, Zhang Fan was more than happy with this.
It was quite normal for young men to have great appetite. However, Zhang Fan had already consumed a goat leg, a goat tail, and a significant amount of chicken and beef. Basically, he had eaten a great amount from every dish. Although the System had already strengthened Zhang Fan's body, there were still limits to what the System could do.
Since Zhang Fan's body and mind had both been strengthened, this would also increase his calorie requirements to maintain his body. His metabolism was also sped up. If he didn't increase his food intake, it would be impossible for him to keep up his rate of mental studying and maintain his new improved body. The System's ability to strengthen its host's body and mind was all programmed into the System as a protective measure by the future's scientists as being a doctor was a demanding job, both physically and mentally.
When Zhang Fan finally ate his fill, the third round of toasts had already begun. However, Juma Bieke was already drunk to the extent of trying to hit on and drink together with an ethnic girl despite his girlfriend's protests. Zhang Fan figured that Juma Bieke's girlfriend would give him a real good scolding after he was finally awake.
Zhang Fan drank some tea while watching the ethnic performances. He noticed that Superintendent Batu was also observing everyone.
Zhang Fan thought about things for a moment before picking up his teacup and walking over to Superintendent Batu. Until Zhang Fan himself was a powerful personage, he would pay respects to the people in power. This was experience Zhang Fan learned after several years of being a food seller.
Zhang Fan walked up to the superintendent and sat down in Indian style. In this border province, the local custom was that any alcohol that was drank while standing didn't count, so all alcohol had to be drank while sitting down. Zhang Fan felt that this was a nice custom that made it easier on his legs.
”Superintendent, allow me to drink this tea in place of wine to apologize to you. Yesterday, you hosted a welcoming party for us, but I was such an embarrassment.” Who cared if his apology was fake or real? He at least needed to show his attitude.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.
”Haha, Zhang Fan, it's not embarrassing for men to get drunk, but it's really embarrassing for a man not to be able to drink at all. You need to train more. You're from the best top-level school out of all our fresh graduates that just joined. You should act as a leader, don't you think? I'll let you off the hook for today. I'll also toast you with some tea. I'm really looking forward to your future potential.” Superintendent Batu patted Zhang Fan on the shoulder and toasted him with his own tea. In response, Zhang Fan also showed a greatly deferential attitude while responding that he would definitely allow the superintendent to lead him towards a glorious future!
Many people came up to toast the superintendent. Zhang Fan only spoke a few polite words and drank a sip of tea before backing away to allow others to toast the superintendent.
Zhang Fan barely paid any attention to whatever the superintendent just said. Zhang Fan really didn't care.
On the first day of the two-day vacation, all the new intern doctors (except for Zhang Fan) got really drunk again, so nobody had any energy to go anywhere on the second day. Everyone only spent half a day at the local hot springs before returning to the hospital dormitory.
On Monday morning, Zhang Fan and the other six new intern doctors all reported together to the superintendent's office, where the hospital's department managers were also waiting for them.
Today was the day when the intern doctors would be assigned to the various departments. In a relatively smaller hospital like Kuake City Hospital, everything that the superintendent said was the law. Batu considered all the students' personal preferences, everyone's personal traits and strengths, as well as their behavior over the past two days in order to assign everyone to various departments.
