"Really, thank you so much."

"Why are you saying that?"

"Isn't it the right thing to do?"

"Alright, it is indeed the right thing to do."

Zhou Mo Sen followed Uchida into his clinic.

This was where his success started, though he hadn't been here much lately.

But after all, it hasn't been long since his last visit, so the place still looked the same.

It was already evening, and the clinic was about to close for the day.

Zhou Mo Sen's appearance seemed like it might make everyone work overtime?

"Can we talk in private?"

Zhou Mo Sen's intentions were clear, and he also made a gesture towards outside his office.

Meaning, you should go announce that everyone can leave.

This action amused Uchida.

"You're the BOSS; you should announce it yourself."

To be fair, what he said made sense.

Zhou Mo Sen was a bit helpless, so he nodded, decided to go out, and talked to his assistant.

Wow! Amazing!

After all, it meant getting off work early, and everyone at the clinic was very happy.

Cheering a bit is perfectly normal.

However, Zhou Mo Sen seemed to notice something...

"So, the former nurse..."

As he mentioned this, Uchida chimed in.

"Heidi is done for."

"What do you mean 'done for'?"

"You don't know?"

"Oh, this..."

"She got hooked and then ended up on the street."

"Is this because of her boyfriend?"

"Probably, but I can't help it."

"I understand."

This was how Zhou Mo Sen learned about Heidi.

To be honest, it was a bit poignant.

But truth be told.

Actually, this is like the life trajectory of many Black people in the United States.

It really is like this, remember, no matter how bad someone is, there's gambling and drugs.

Never get involved with those.

The best thing is to focus on gambling.

This is Zhou Mo Sen's honest advice; the other two are truly harmful.

Some people might not quite understand, but gambling... is also addictive.

Moreover, gambling is essentially a psychological addiction.

There's no need to go into detail; that's the situation, anyway.

That girl Heidi, originally just a tattooed girl, and ending up like this...

Well, Zhou Mo Sen understood Uchida's point.

There's no helping it.

There are too many people like that in America; how could you help them?

And if you don't get rid of such people from our team, wouldn't my clinic's reputation be ruined?

And this...

"So, I should thank you even more."

"You..."

"Uchida, you've really helped a lot."

"If you keep saying things like that, I'll want to punch you."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because I'm not helping you; you're the one who delegated tasks to me. I'm just doing my job, the work I should be doing, OK?"

"This... hehe..."

"What are you laughing at!"

"I'm not saying anything extra; don't you understand? I'm just thanking you for doing a great job."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is... Could it be that you're overthinking it?"

"F*ck! You rascal!"

"Don't get mad."

"I'm not mad!"

Truth be told, in this conversation between the two, Uchida certainly got the short end of the stick.

What exactly were they talking about?

It's actually quite simple.

Uchida's point is completely valid.

She's just doing her job, completing the tasks that her boss Zhou Mo Sen assigned.

Although she was originally an anesthesiologist, doing some management work isn't a bad thing either.

Moreover, Zhou Mo Sen's clinic currently operates mainly under a type of 'contract' system.

This model is actually quite common in American hospitals.

Especially in private hospitals.

Private hospitals are typically started by a few doctor friends who team up.

Once they get it going, everyone becomes partners.

So, it's pretty clear.

Everyone takes care of their own responsibilities.

And in certain situations, like when a patient is hard to treat, or a surgery is complicated.

Then, everyone collaborates.

And challenging surgeries like these make a lot of money.

Once completed, everyone shares the profits.

That's really just how it is.

It's very similar to some of the contract-business models we have in our country.

Healthcare in America is already fully commercialized.

Therefore, a partnership model for clinics overlaps with business models, which is quite normal.

Well, actually, many business companies in the United States are like this too.

Just like that Wall Street mogul Zhao Anji married.

Even though he is a legendary mogul on Wall Street, he still needs to partner with others.

So, managing this cooperative model of American clinics.

Is it difficult? Not too difficult.

But to say it's easy, it's not easy either.

Because each doctor is responsible for their own piece, there might be situations where they do things for personal gain.

You know what I mean.

Managing... Uchida really does have a tough job.

And now Zhou Mo Sen returned and found the clinic well-managed.

He praised a bit, expressed his gratitude.

Isn't that pretty normal?

But why does Uchida take issue with this gratitude?

Actually, Uchida's reaction is quite understandable.

It's obvious, from what she said.

You, Zhou Mo Sen, are the boss, and I am your employee.

You instruct, and I execute.

That's just how the relationship is.

Why the need for thanks?

Indeed, what Uchida said makes perfect sense.

However, there is a significant issue here.
