Chapter 233: The Invitation from the Military Hospital
After calling out to the patient, she went back inside and sat down in the chair.
At noon, Grandpa Zhou and his daughter-in-law brought them lunch.
When Dr. Zhou saw that his father and wife had arrived, he took the insulated food container and put it down, then whispered to his wife, "Dad, what will happen to Mom if you two come out?"
The daughter-in-law, Yang Xiuqin, replied, "Don't worry, your mother has been lucid lately, can recognize people, and hasn't run away."
Have you eaten yet?
"Let's eat when we get back."
Dr. Zhou said, "Then go home early. It's always worrying to leave Mom alone at home."
His mother suffers from Alzheimer's disease and often doesn't recognize them. Sometimes she even forgets the way home after leaving the house.
As Dr. Zhou spoke, he felt heavy-hearted and powerless.
The whole family were doctors, yet they were powerless to help the mother with her illness.
So what if his older brother is a specialist at a military hospital?
So what if my father is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?
However, the Western medicines that his older brother recently had someone bring back from abroad have been quite effective.
For a period of time, his mother remained lucid.
Unfortunately, that drug had too many side effects.
He always vomits and feels nauseous when he is fed.
Bai Zhi and Ye Rufeng finally rested at midnight.
Bai Zhi stood up, stretched, and was also touched to see that Old Zhou and Dr. Zhou's wife had brought them food.
He smiled and thanked them.
"Dr. Xiaobai, you and Brother Ye have worked the hardest."
Seeing his older brother practicing medicine at their Jishengtang clinic and bringing vitality to the clinic, Zhou Zheng was truly grateful.
This is a height that neither he nor his son could ever dream of reaching.
They had also thought that they could use their medical skills to bring honor to their ancestors and carry forward the traditional Chinese medicine.
Unfortunately, their abilities were limited.
Ye Rufeng was exhausted after seeing patients all morning and planned to devour his meal and then take a nap.
"Alright, stop getting sentimental. Go back and take care of your younger brother and sister-in-law as soon as possible."
Zhou Zheng wanted to spend more time with Ye Rufeng, so he said with a smile, "It's alright, my wife is doing well lately and is sleeping at home."
While they were chatting during a break from their meal.
A Santana suddenly pulled up in front of Jishengtang.
When Dr. Zhou saw the impressive car, his first thought was that a wealthy patient had come seeking his expertise.
In the past, he might have been nervous, or even felt honored.
But he is now immune.
Now he's someone who's seen the world and met many important people.
Dr. Zhou stood politely at the door, waiting for the car door to open, wanting to see who had come to see the miracle doctor.
Then, a familiar figure came into view.
Upon seeing him, Dr. Zhou rolled his eyes and immediately lost interest.
Why make such a big fuss when he goes back to his own pharmacy? Who provided him with the car?
"Huaiyi, is Doctor Xiaobai at the pharmacy?" The elder brother, Zhou Huai Ren, asked his younger brother directly when he saw him at the door.
Dr. Zhou replied, "Yes, I am."
He gave this reply, but when he asked about Bai Zhi, his expression became wary.
He knew that his older brother and Bai Zhi had a very awkward falling out over medical differences.
What are they up to now?
Jishengtang has just recovered, and we can't let our own people ruin it.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man in a jacket and gold-rimmed glasses got off the car, exuding a powerful aura.
In addition, there was a young woman.
When Dr. Zhou saw his elder brother, his attitude immediately relaxed, but when he saw that there were other people, he quickly stood up straight to greet them.
These people are probably here for Bai Zhi.
"This is our Vice President Li, and Dr. Lu," Zhou Huai-ren introduced to Zhou Huai-yi.
"Hello, Vice President Li. Hello, Dr. Lu."
He was very familiar with Dr. Lu; he had come here several times before in search of Bai Zhi.
This was the first time he had met the vice president.
Dr. Zhou, who had thought he was experienced and no longer intimidated, suddenly started wiping away cold sweat nervously.
This is the first time such an important person has come to their cramped little pharmacy.
However, Dr. Zhou thought again, so what if he is the vice president?
Could his standing in the hearts of patients be as high as that of Doctor Ye?
Is his medical skill comparable to that of Doctor Ye?
Thinking of this, Dr. Zhou calmed down and welcomed the group into the room.
When Grandpa Zhou saw his eldest son come in, he was quite surprised. "Huai Ren, what brings you here?"
Before Director Zhou could speak, Vice President Li smiled and spoke first, "Uncle, we're here to see Dr. Xiao Bai and Dr. Ye."
Vice President Li and Bai Zhi met briefly when Lu Ye was seriously ill.
Just then, Bai Zhi finished eating and was about to clear the dishes when she saw Vice President Li and the others come in. She greeted them with a smile, "Vice President Li, Director Zhou, Dr. Lu, hello."
Lu Shan was clearly accompanying a leader on a trip. Standing behind Vice President Li, she gave Bai Zhi a subtle nod.
"Xiaobai, hello, you're finally back."
"We've been looking forward to your return and joining our team."
After exchanging pleasantries with Bai Zhi, Vice President Li looked at the old man calmly drinking water and introduced himself sincerely, "Dr. Ye, hello, I am Li Zecheng, Vice President of Nancheng Military Region Hospital."
Ye Rufeng raised her eyelids and said in a flat tone, "Hello."
Ye Rufeng had previously heard Bai Zhi mention that the military hospital wanted to invite her to join their medical research and development team.
So it's not surprising to see them arrive.
Ye Rufeng's indifferent attitude made the atmosphere somewhat awkward for a moment.
But Li Zecheng's ability to become the vice president of the military hospital shows that his social skills are definitely up to par.
He looked at them and continued, "Dr. Ye, Dr. Bai, may we take a little of your precious time to talk about something?"
“Vice Dean Li, please speak,” Bai Zhi replied.
"Dr. Xiaobai, when we met last time, I mentioned to you and Comrade Lu Ye that I wanted to invite you to join the special drug research and development medical team established by our hospital. You should remember this."
Upon hearing Vice Dean Li's words, Bai Zhi nodded, "Vice Dean Li, I'll remember."
"To be honest, since our medical research and development team was established, it has been an empty shell. We have been struggling to find a solution or direction for detoxifying hallucinogens."
Vice President Li sighed and said, "Comrade Lu Ye is the only patient we have encountered in this field who has recovered completely. This gives us hope, so we would like to sincerely invite Dr. Ye and Dr. Xiao Bai to join our medical team and lead other doctors to achieve results in this area."
Bai Zhi listened to Vice Dean Li's words, her expression slightly fluctuating.
Previously, Vice Dean Li had only invited her.
Now, they've turned the invitation into an invitation for her and her grandfather to join their medical research and development team.
Ultimately, people still have doubts about her medical skills as a young person.
The fact that they made such a big fuss today, with the vice president personally coming to invite people, is also because of her maternal grandfather.
Bai Zhi could understand this.
Now that they know the highly respected Doctor Ye is coming to Nancheng, they will definitely come to invite him.
