Tan Kelin didn't care about their surprise or offer any explanation, truly embodying the aloof spirit of General Surgery Department Two. His face slightly lowered, revealing a slender profile, he focused solely on the reports without looking at anyone.

Xie Wanying stood by without saying a word. An anxious student at this moment would surely be eager to ask their new teacher, "Teacher, what should I do today?"
