Chapter 191: 192: It's Quite Nice to Be a Salted Fish That Can Win by Lying Down (Please Subscribe!)
He picked up the phone and called Chen Cang right away!
Unfortunately, no one answered!
This made Zhang Zhixin panic, this rascal was really getting out of hand, he had only learned for a few days and dared to perform bear augmentation surgery!
You’d be lucky you haven’t seen me perform general surgery, otherwise you’d be out of this world!
After waiting impatiently until the end of the workday, Zhang Zhixin hurriedly drove back to the aesthetic medicine hospital and rushed upstairs with urgency.
Chen Cang hadn’t returned yet and was sitting in his office, thoughtfully reading a paper by Qin Yue published in “Liver Transplantation”.
When should he take the time to activate Qian Liang’s Master’s Mandate?
Zhang Zhixin burst in, panting and said, “Chen Cang! You little… Why did you go and do a bear augmentation surgery on your own! And for Fu Yufang’s sister at that! You really are…”
Chen Cang saw Zhang Zhixin leaning against the door, out of breath and struggling to speak smoothly.
He sighed, “Boss Zhang, aren’t you comfortable sitting at home and collecting money as a boss? You even came all this way!”
Zhang Zhixin’s eyelid twitched uncontrollably, being with Chen Cang was truly an exercise in patience.
“If I didn’t come over, you might have torn the aesthetic hospital down…”
“Do you know how to perform breast augmentation surgery?! Big brother, my lord, can you please take it easy from now on?”
Before Zhang Zhixin finished speaking, Fu Yufang suddenly pushed the door and entered.
Fu Yufang saw the two seemed to be in the midst of an intense argument and gave an awkward smile, “Am I interrupting something?”
Zhang Zhixin saw that it was the wealthy Mrs. Fu and immediately smiled, “No, no, just an academic discussion!”
Fu Yufang gave a slight smile, “It’s good to be educated. My husband Guo is all about money all day long, always talking about buying this and that, it’s driving me nuts!”
Zhang Zhixin was stunned, I too want to talk about money, but… I need to have money first!
Chen Cang suddenly realized why they call someone a poor scholar, they’re all so poor, how can they not be bitter?
Even if you don’t want to be bitter, faced with this kind of ostentatious wealth flaunting, could you not be?
Zhang Zhixin laughed, “Just a casual chat, so… Miss Fu, you’re here for…?”
Fu Yufang hurriedly pulled out a card from her bag and said embarrassedly, “Dr. Chen, let’s settle the surgery fee first, we’re old friends now, and we trust Dr. Chen. And besides, we’ll have more interaction in the future.”
After Chen Cang left earlier, Fu Yufang and Fu Yulan had a brief chat.
Fu Yufang still felt it was more appropriate to pay Chen Cang first, after all, the surgery was already done, and as for the aftermath, they could deal with the consequences if there were any later, one thing at a time.
One million is not a small amount, but it’s not too much either. Once she undergoes the bear enhancement surgery, totaling two million, it’s like buying a new car for her husband. After all, the car also costs two million. Thinking about it, Fu Yufang’s face blushed.
Plus, she was planning to undergo the procedure herself soon, to leave a good impression on Chen Cang.
Chen Cang smiled, “Sister Fu, it’s all the same.”
Fu Yufang also smiled, “Dr. Chen, you’ve been working hard for so long, and the surgery fee is definitely what it should be. Besides, I’m sure there’s no problem—I just checked, and it’s really beautiful! Even I, as a woman, was tempted for a long time, so in this regard, one million is truly not expensive! Honestly, it’s worth it!”
Zhang Zhixin was stunned, unable to interject in their conversation.
Wait a second…
What one million?
Zhang Zhixin suddenly felt dumbfounded!
What thing costs one million?
Zhang Zhixin suddenly realized, Chen Cang… you… one million for a breast augmentation surgery?
Why don’t you shoot for the stars!
Damn it!
Chen Cang, you must be thinking I’ve had too smooth a ride recently, not enough trouble, right?
If something goes wrong, how much will it cost to compensate?
Thinking this, Zhang Zhixin felt his health deteriorating even further.
Zhang Zhixin couldn’t help asking, “Wait, Miss Fu, how much is this? One million? Could there be some misunderstanding?”
Fu Yufang was momentarily startled, then quickly shook her head, “No, I think the price is quite fair. You get what you pay for, and I think Dr. Chen’s skills are worth one million!”
“Just like facial plastic surgery, I did spend 400,000 on mine, not cheap, but it’s miles different from those Internet celebrity faces on the streets. When my mother-in-law came back, she didn’t scold me but instead praised how well I maintain myself!”
“So, you get what you pay for, Dr. Chen’s one million is not expensive at all!”
Zhang Zhixin forced himself to calm down, realizing he truly had a generational gap in the concept of money with the wealthy Mrs. Fu!
Maybe… perhaps… I underestimated the value of my own work?
Or is my self-awareness not clear enough?
Thinking this, Zhang Zhixin felt he needed to learn from Chen Cang.
How on earth can you please a wealthy woman, so that she gleefully hands over her money to you!
Combining these experiences… Chen Cang must be well-versed in this art.
Seeing Fu Yufang so satisfied, Zhang Zhixin finally felt a huge weight lift from his shoulders.
During their conversation, Fu Yufang said, “Doctor Chen, let’s go settle the bill.”
In a state of bewilderment, Zhang Zhixin watched as Chen Cang went with Fu Yufang to take care of the payment.
Afterward, Chen Cang gave some instructions on matters Fu Yulan needed to pay attention to.
Once Fu Yufang had left, Zhang Zhixin immediately pulled Chen Cang aside, “Do you really know how to perform breast augmentation surgery?”
Chen Cang nodded, “Yes, I couldn’t possibly cause trouble for Boss Zhang here, could I?”
Zhang Zhixin was somewhat baffled, “That’s not right, you haven’t done it on your own, have you? Although… you have been learning with me for a while, right? You’ve done no more than three or five cases altogether, how did you learn?”
Chen Cang pondered for a moment, “I think it must be because Boss Zhang teaches well, and I learn quickly.”
With the statement that he taught well, Zhang Zhixin was completely lost for words.
Although it sounded pleasing, something felt off. Do I have a clue about my own level of expertise?
In any case, as long as there were no complications, that was fine, but he would need to check later how Chen Cang managed to charm one million out of the procedure!
Back in his office, Zhang Zhixin was still puzzled, so he leaned in eagerly, “Chen, you have to teach me!”
Chen Cang was taken aback, “What?”
Zhang Zhixin gave a fawning smile, “Stop pretending, just tell me, how did you do it? 100 million for a breast job, my goodness, that’s more than I make from ten! Did I used to charge too little?”
Chen Cang gave a slight smile, “The surgery fee is 10 million, the rest, 90 million, is mine, so don’t even think about it.”
Zhang Zhixin nodded eagerly, “Yes, yes, keeping business and personal separate, I understand that, but… you must teach me, how to deal with wealthy women? I feel I’m lacking in that area!”
Chen Cang looked at him stunned for a moment before speaking earnestly, “Boss Zhang, that’s not right. We make our living with skills, not by deceiving people.”
“You’ll understand why I charge 150,000 when you see Fu Yulan’s results. Oh, and here’s the photo from before the surgery, go take a look.”
Zhang Zhixin, hearing this, took the photo and had a look, hmm, a classic case of hypomastia, and rather a severe one. Even with cosmetic treatment, it would be challenging…
Moreover… even with surgery, the results wouldn’t be very noticeable.
After some thought, he decided to go up and see Fu Yulan for himself.
After knocking and entering, Zhang Zhixin nodded to explain his visit, “I was at the hospital today, didn’t manage to come over, this… Yulan, let me see how you’re doing.”
Fu Yulan nodded, unashamed, slowly unfastening the dressing on her chest.
To be honest, even for Zhang Zhixin, who was experienced and specialized in this field, he was taken aback upon seeing Fu Yulan’s results!
So beautiful!
So exquisite!
So natural and delicate.
Although it was right after surgery, this kind of naturally perfect look certainly wasn’t something the average person could achieve.
And the symmetry of both sides, the handling of details, the steadiness of the position, the proportioning of the design…
The more Zhang Zhixin looked, the more amazed he was, the more he felt awed and humbled!
…
As he left, Zhang Zhixin sighed deeply.
He finally understood why Chen Cang dared to charge a million for the surgery.
Zhang Zhixin was a professional himself, and well aware of the difficulties of surgery. To achieve what Chen Cang managed, you’d need the experience of thousands of surgeries; otherwise, you were basically dreaming!
With such surgical outcomes, he would also dare to charge a million if it were his own work.
But the crux of the matter was that he himself couldn’t produce such results for a million-dollar makeover.
That was the most important point.
This was the difference!
Reflecting on this, Zhang Zhixin couldn’t help but sigh, beginning to doubt his life choices.
Both just humans, both surgeons by training, yet why is there such a vast gap between people?
However, this self-doubt was quickly dispelled after Chen Cang treated him to several skewers of kidneys, chives, and oysters.
Actually, following Chen Cang and being a salted fish wasn’t so bad…
“Ah! Boss, bring another two plates of kidneys!”
