Chapter 331: Sick



Zhou Jiasheng followed Zhou Xi to General Zhou's bedroom upstairs and saw General Zhou sleeping soundly on the bed.

"Master, how are you? Xiao Jiasheng is here to see you." Zhou Xi let go of Zhou Jiasheng's hand and stepped forward to look at General Zhou on the bed. Although they were both gray-haired, Zhou Xi still used to call General Zhou "Master".

Half an hour ago, when Dr. Hu left, General Zhou's face was not as pale and haggard as it is now.

Xiao Zhu was equipped with a walkie-talkie, and Zhou Xi had already received the news when Zhou Jiasheng got in the car. Just five minutes ago, when Zhou Xi hadn't come downstairs yet, General Zhou was still joking with Zhou Xi, saying that when he saw Zhou Jiasheng later, he wondered what expression would be on the little guy's face.

Although General Zhou's health had not been good over the years, he had never been this weak. Could it be that... the general's illness had worsened? Zhou Xi was surprised.

"Why did I fall asleep?" General Zhou heard Zhou Xi's cry, opened his eyes, and saw Zhou Jiasheng standing in front of the bed. A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Hey! Little thing, you are willing to see an old man like me today? Aren't you afraid that I will sell you out?"

A few days ago, when General Zhou and Zhou Jiasheng met in the street garden, General Zhou proposed that Zhou Jiasheng visit his home, but Zhou Jiasheng rejected the idea. Zhou Jiasheng's reason was: "Who knows if you are a bad person who wants to kidnap and sell me?"

Therefore, when General Zhou saw Zhou Jiasheng at home, he immediately made fun of Zhou Jiasheng about this matter.

"Hey~! Old man, you are so sick, and you still don't forget to make fun of me? Let me tell you! My grandfather is a doctor, a very good doctor! How about letting him treat you?" Zhou Jiasheng felt his heart aching when he saw General Zhou's pale face.

Over the years, Zhao Qingshan's place in Zhou Jiasheng's heart was unparalleled. In Zhou Jiasheng's heart, Grandpa Zhao Qingshan was a master of both martial arts and medicine, and nothing could stump him. Whenever Zhou Jiasheng came down with a cold or cough, Zhao Qingshan would poke him with a few needles and pour him a bowl of bitter medicine. At most, Zhou Jiasheng would lie in bed for a day, and the next day he would be full of life again. Seeing General Zhou's frail appearance, Zhou Jiasheng's first thought was to have his grandfather give him a few acupuncture treatments.

General Zhou's health has always been under the care of Doctor Hu, who is also a doctor at Renhe Hospital. However, Doctor Hu does not see patients at the hospital, but is responsible for regulating the health of General Zhou and several other senior politicians.

Dr. Hu's medical skills are exceptional. Over the years, several prominent figures have remained in excellent health under his meticulous care! Even General Zhou, despite the ticking time bomb of shrapnel in his system, has maintained excellent health.

After hearing Zhou Jiasheng's words, Zhou Xi couldn't help but think of Zhao Qingshan curing Wen Yiran's illness a few months ago. At that time, Zhou Xi felt a hint of spiritual energy in Wen Yiran's home. Later, after testing Zhao Qingshan, Zhou Xi found that Zhao Qingshan was not a cultivator, so he let the matter go.

Now, seeing General Zhou's illness coming on stronger and stronger, Zhou Xi's little spark of hope began to rekindle. If Zhao Qingshan himself wasn't sure he could cure the general, he wondered if he could ask the experts behind him to help?

After Zhou Xi made up his mind, he left Zhou Jiasheng to chat with General Zhou and hurried downstairs to call Director Hao of Renhe Hospital. Zhou Xi knew that if he wanted Zhao Qingshan to come to General Zhou quickly, he really needed Director Hao's help.

When Zhou Xi called, Dean Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Dean Hao had been under a lot of pressure these days, and Zhou Xi had placed Zhao Qingshan in his hospital, surely wanting him to take care of him.

Zhao Qingshan was a skilled doctor, but he also had a lot of chores to do. Last month, Zhao Qingshan said he wanted to bring his six-year-old granddaughter to work with him. Dean Hao, seeing that the little girl was well-behaved and didn't cry or make a fuss, agreed without much concern.

These days, Zhou Yuanyuan has been obediently following Zhao Qingshan while he works, observing how he performs acupuncture. When encountering critically ill patients, Zhou Yuanyuan, as usual, has secretly imbued Zhao Qingshan's silver needles with a trace of her own spiritual energy to assist. However, such cases are rare, only one or two in the past two months.

Zhou Yuanyuan took action, and even the most critically ill patients were saved by Zhao Qingshan. As a result, Zhao Qingshan's reputation in Renhe Hospital has risen to a new level in the past few months.

As Zhao Qingshan's fame grew, the doctors who had already had issues with him, including Dr. Liu, began to find flaws in him. Zhao Qingshan's medical skills were beyond their reach, impeccable, and so they set their sights on Zhou Yuanyuan.

Just yesterday, Liu Yicheng went to the dean's office and righteously argued that it was wrong for Zhao Qingshan to bring his child to work. If every doctor juggled patient care with childcare like Zhao Qingshan, how would the hospital even be considered a hospital? Are doctors supposed to treat patients, or are they kindergarten teachers? Finally, Liu Yicheng urged Dean Hao to monitor Zhao Qingshan more closely and not tolerate him taking a hospital salary while caring for his own children.

Dean Hao was furious with Liu Yicheng, but he had nothing to say. Honestly, if every doctor brought a child to work, would Renhe Hospital still be a hospital? Or a nursery? Dean Hao was just racking his brain over whether to talk to Zhao Qingshan about the child when Zhou Xi called.

Zhou Xi called Dean Hao and said that General Zhou wanted to meet Zhao Qingshan. Dean Hao was delighted when he heard this. Zhao Qingshan was so famous that even the old marshal knew about him? With the old marshal's support, Liu Yicheng and his gang should not dare to say a word, right?

Dean Hao quickly dispatched a car to take Zhao Qingshan and his grandson to the military compound. Dean Hao was no fool. The general's request to see Zhao Qingshan could be interpreted in several ways: one, that the general had heard of Zhao Qingshan and wanted to meet him; the other, that the general was ill, and Zhou Xi wanted Zhao Qingshan to see him immediately. Either way, Dean Hao couldn't afford to neglect him.

When Zhou Yuanyuan saw General Zhou, she was stunned.

General Zhou's appearance was very similar to Zhou Zhixin's. Even though General Zhou had a few more wrinkles on his face now, who was Zhou Yuanyuan? The monks had excellent eyesight. Using the "Eye of Time Tracing", they could restore General Zhou's appearance from decades ago.

It seems Zhou Xi's visit to his family wasn't a coincidence! Zhou Yuanyuan sighed inwardly. In two lifetimes, Zhou Yuanyuan had never imagined that her father would be related to General Zhou. Who was General Zhou? A renowned marshal of the three Chinese armies, a war hero during the fight against foreign aggression and the establishment of a new China, and currently the only general in the Chinese military with the rank of marshal.
