Chapter 659: A Visit

Bai Zhi was quite surprised to see who had come.

How did they know? The clinic was already open and they had found the exact address.

Dean Liu looked at Bai Zhi and began exchanging pleasantries, "Dr. Bai, I'm so sorry, we only heard about the opening of your clinic yesterday afternoon and couldn't come to congratulate you in time."

"Dean Liu, you're too kind."

Bai Zhi quickly took the fruit bag from Director Li's hand, saying, "You two are too kind."

"Just a small token of my appreciation."

Dean Liu looked around the clinic, then looked at the wall of traditional Chinese medicine cabinets and said with a smile, "This environment is not bad. Wow, this cabinet of traditional Chinese medicine is quite big."

Bai Zhi explained, "This was specially made by a furniture factory and can be categorized into hundreds of Chinese medicinal herbs."

Dean Liu and Director Li could tell that a lot of thought had been put into this medicine cabinet alone.

It also incurred costs.

"Just you and this young girl?"

When Dean Liu didn't see the person he was looking for in the clinic, he asked Bai Zhi with a clearly inquisitive tone.

Bai Zhi instantly understood what he meant.

This is for my maternal grandfather.

She explained, "Dean Liu, Director Li, my grandfather went for his lunch break."

"I see."

"Please, both of you, have a seat." Bai Zhi invited them to sit on the chairs in the patient waiting area.

Zhou Lin, being very perceptive, went and brewed some tea and brought it over.

The tea used was a precious tea given to us by Grandpa Sun, which Bai Zhi brought from her home.

It was used to entertain guests yesterday.

Dean Liu took a sip, his expression meaningful. He smiled and looked at Director Li, gesturing for him to try some as well. "Old Li, quickly try Xiaobai's good tea."

Director Li was clearly not as knowledgeable about tea as Dean Liu. He took a sip but couldn't discern anything special about it. Since the dean said it was good tea, he echoed that it was indeed good.

Bai Zhi said to Zhou Lin, "Linlin, go home and invite my grandfather over. Tell him that Director Liu and Director Li from the military hospital have arrived."

Zhou Lin nodded and quickly went out. "Okay, Sister Bai Zhi."

"Dr. Bai, do you have many patients at your clinic?" Director Li asked with a smile.

Bai Zhi said, "There were quite a few in the morning. My grandfather went to rest this time. When the patients came in, they only saw the two of us young girls and then left."

She looked at Dean Liu and Director Li and sighed, "Alas, I have all these medical skills, but the patients don't trust me. What can I do?"

Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, both Dean Liu and Director Li looked somewhat embarrassed.

I have a feeling that Angelica dahurica is subtly implying something.

It wasn't that they distrusted Bai Zhi's medical skills.

Based solely on the case of her saving Officer Sun from the brink of death at the hospital, her medical skills have already been recognized by everyone.

However, with their master around, they naturally preferred to see him.

In addition, Bai Zhi proposed to cooperate with them to establish a renowned doctor's studio in the hospital.

She said she was collaborating with the hospital under Ye Rufeng's name.

So, of course they wanted to see the miracle doctor first, talk to him, and then make a decision.

It wasn't that they distrusted Bai Zhi's medical skills; it was just that, as leaders, they could act more effectively by cooperating with a highly respected and virtuous physician.

It can also win people's hearts.

If Bai Zhi were to join the hospital as a doctor, they would have no problem at all.

However, the prerequisite for establishing a renowned doctor's studio in a hospital is that the doctor must be a renowned doctor.

Angelica dahurica doesn't even qualify.

Dean Liu, being a leader, reacted quickly and knew how to comfort people. He said with a smile, "When I was young, I followed our director on ward rounds. The patients didn't trust us, and they wouldn't take the medicine I prescribed."

Director Li echoed, "Yes, everyone has been through this stage. Gaining patients' trust takes time and experience."

While the three were talking, Zhou Lin had already invited Ye Rufeng back.

"Grandpa, you're awake?" Bai Zhi stood up and said to Ye Rufeng, "These two are Director Liu and Director Li from the military hospital."

Upon learning that the other party was from a military hospital, Ye Rufeng's attitude became quite friendly: "Hello."

"Dr. Ye, hello, I am Liu Jin, the director of the military hospital." Director Liu stepped forward and respectfully shook hands with Ye Rufeng.

"Hello."

Director Li quickly shook hands with Ye Rufeng, "Hello, Dr. Ye, I am Li Zheng, the office director of the military hospital."

The two leaders were not at all arrogant, which made Ye Rufeng feel quite favorable towards them. He gestured for them to sit down, saying, "Please have a seat."

Then he sat down in his own examination chair.

Dean Liu looked at Ye Rufeng very seriously and said, "We just told Dr. Bai that we only heard about the opening of Derentang last night. We didn't have time to come and congratulate them yesterday, so please forgive us, Dr. Ye."

Ye Rufeng said, "It's nothing, we didn't dare trouble you two."

"Dr. Ye, first of all, on behalf of all the medical staff and patients of the military hospital, I would like to express my gratitude to you." Dean Liu said sincerely.

"Thank me for what?" Ye Rufeng asked, puzzled.

"Thank you for training such an excellent young doctor as Comrade Bai Zhi. Some time ago, our hospital received a critically ill patient. At that time, because our hospital's doctors lacked clinical experience in this area, we were helpless in the face of the critical patient. Fortunately, Dr. Bai came to the scene in time and solved the difficult problem."

Dean Liu didn't stand on ceremony; he was genuinely grateful to Bai Zhi for resolving the issue.

If it weren't for Angelica dahurica, their hospital would have been completely helpless.

If the heroes who came from the front lines are transferred to other hospitals, their hospital's reputation in the industry will plummet.

Who will trust them in the future?

They couldn't explain this to their superiors either.

Because Bai Zhi intervened in time and stabilized Officer Sun's condition, he received successful treatment. As the hospital director, he was able to give an account to everyone involved.

When Ye Rufeng heard him praise his granddaughter, a gentle light appeared on his face, and his tone softened, "You're welcome."

"Dr. Ye, will you be practicing here long-term?" Dean Liu asked.

Ye Rufeng glanced at Bai Zhi and said, "Although this girl's medical skills are comparable to mine, she is still young and lacks experience. According to the regulations, she does not yet meet the standards for practicing medicine, so I can only keep her here for the time being."

Having received Ye Rufeng's affirmative answer, Dean Liu and Director Li felt reassured.

During this period, they also conducted a detailed background check on this traditional Chinese medicine doctor, Ye Rufeng.

We are fully qualified to work with them.

Seeing that they had laid the groundwork enough, Director Li extended an invitation at the opportune moment, "Dr. Ye, when do you have some free time? We would like to invite you to visit and exchange ideas at the military hospital. Would that be alright?"

"A visit and exchange?" Ye Rufeng chuckled. "Exchange what?"

"Does your hospital have a Traditional Chinese Medicine department?" he asked.

Dean Liu smiled and said, "No, that's not the case. However, I see that Dr. Bai has a good understanding of Western medicine. She has also proposed the concept of combining Chinese and Western medicine. I believe that Dr. Ye has a deeper understanding of this area. We can have an exchange on the topic of combining Chinese and Western medicine."
