Upon seeing his father enter, Li Wenxuan showed no reaction, continuing to carefully take his father's pulse.
The nurse standing nearby smiled and nodded.
After seeing the patient off and the nurse had also left, Li Wenxuan said, "Dad, Qiaoyun's mother asked me to tell you that it's confirmed for the National Day Gala that she will be singing 'One Two Three Four Song'."
These words startled Li Chuhuang. Good heavens, Li Qiaoyun herself sings this song. Can she bring out that same power in it?
But whatever, once the song is given out, he won't care anymore. Whoever wants to sing it can sing it, and he'll never release the song again.
Seeing that his father didn't say anything, Li Wenxuan said again, "Dad, I'd like to ask you for a few days off."
? ? ?
Li Chu turned his head and looked at Wenxuan in astonishment. To be honest, ever since his son started learning from him, he had never taken a day off except for regular weekends and public holidays.
"May I ask why you requested leave?"
Li Wenxuan scratched his white hat a little embarrassedly, and after stammering for a moment, he said, "I want to accompany Yueyue to the beach in Dongshan. It just so happens that one of her very close classmates lives there."
How long are you planning to stay?
"Ten days at most." Li Wenxuan knew the matter was settled as soon as he heard his father's question, and quickly replied.
"Let's not make it ten days. I'll give you half a month off. Since you're going out, you can have a couple more days off. But you can go out and have fun, but you must take good care of Yueyue."
"Dad, don't worry!" Li Wenxuan patted his chest excitedly.
"That's my fiancée. I will never let her get hurt in the slightest."
When are you planning to leave?
"Of course, the sooner the better."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to buy tickets for you two. Same as always, you must stay at the military district guesthouse."
"Yes, sir!" Li Wenxuan stood up and saluted his father.
Looking at his son, who is now taller than him, Li Chu smiled and shook his head.
After thinking for a moment, he took out the envelope that Zhu Wen had just returned and handed it over.
"Here's a thousand yuan. Take it and use it when you go out. When you get back, ask your mom to give you some more tickets."
Li Wenxuan took the envelope, opened it, and glanced at it: "Dad, this is too much! We'll only be gone for half a month at most. How can we possibly spend so much money?"
"Just pretend. It's not like being at home when you're away from home. Don't make yourself and Yueyue feel uncomfortable," Li Chu said, waving his hand.
"Hehe," Li Wenxuan suddenly chuckled, then lowered his voice mysteriously and said, "Dad, does Mom know about this money?"
Holy crap, what a rebellious son!
"What, what are you trying to do? Try to blackmail me?"
"No, no, no," Li Wenxuan hurriedly shook his head upon hearing this. "I just want to know, if my mom gives me more money when I get back, should I take it or not?"
“Just take it if it’s given to you, and what makes you think your mother didn’t know about this money?”
"Dad, I'm not trying to be mean, but you probably don't even know how much salary you get each month, do you?"
"I...I'm too lazy to run around!"
Seeing his stubborn father, Li Wenxuan chuckled, but he didn't dare say anything more.
If he continues to say anything more, he will be the one who suffers in the end.
Li Chu was also helpless. He couldn't understand why he had taken out that envelope earlier. Now he had been given leverage.
Just as I was about to say something, the curtain of the consultation room was lifted.
He turned around and saw it was Xiao Zheng from the medical office.
"Dean Li, the health department just called and asked you to go see Vice Minister Cheng this afternoon."
"Okay, I understand, thank you!"
"You're welcome, Dean Li."
After Xiao Zheng left, Li Chu fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Li Wenxuan didn't make a sound to disturb them. Instead, he picked up a book from the table and began to read it carefully.
Li Chu had a general idea of what Vice Minister Cheng wanted him to do; it was probably related to his medical practitioner's license.
Uncle Lin, who has already completely retired, even contacted him specifically about this matter.
Lin Shishu was also one of the participants in formulating the implementation plan for the practicing physician qualification certificate.
The reason Vice Minister Cheng called him over this time was probably to have him look at the plan that was almost finished, which should be called a draft plan now, because it has not been completely finalized.
Last year, both Vice Minister Cheng and other high-ranking officials in the health sector contacted him frequently, asking him to attend meetings and trying to get him involved.
However, Li Chu was too busy at that time and could only express his apologies.
However, he has now basically finished his work and will not refuse this time.
Changes to the national healthcare system require the efforts of every healthcare worker.
Moreover, according to the rumors he received, there seems to be a proposal to allow private capital to open hospitals, just as private individuals can now open clinics.
This is also something he absolutely needs to find out during his trip.
To be honest, he was genuinely a little scared about this.
It's not that we're afraid of private capital, but rather the marketization that will follow.
After full marketization, everyone will know what the healthcare industry will look like in 20 or 30 years.

But how many people can go their entire lives without ever having to deal with hospitals?
Anyway, Li Chu has been in the industry for so many years and has never seen a person like this before. There may have been some in the past, but there were always special reasons for them.
Besides the healthcare industry, another sector is education.
Li Chu believed from the bottom of his heart that these two industries were the least suitable for being pushed to the market.
One concerns the lives and health of ordinary people, and the other is even more terrifying—it concerns the very foundation of the nation!
Sigh, but there's no point in thinking about these things now. I can only wait until such a thing actually happens before I can offer my suggestions.
If you really find yourself in that situation, you should speak up and express your opinion.
Thinking of this, Li Chu composed himself. He noticed it was time to go and was about to ask Li Wenxuan to go to the cafeteria for lunch when he realized that someone should still be delivering food. So he decided to hurry up and leave to avoid running into Wang Yueyue and feeling embarrassed.
"Wenxuan, take your time, I'm going to eat." Without waiting for his son's reaction, he walked straight out of the consultation room.
Li Wenxuan was completely dumbfounded by his father's actions.
Looking at the still-swaying curtain, he muttered with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "Dad, no one brought me lunch today. Your daughter-in-law is shy and didn't want to come."
Sigh, whatever, I'll just eat in the cafeteria by myself. How pathetic I am.
Just as he finished muttering to himself, the curtain of the consultation room was lifted slightly, and a head peeked in.
"Brother Wenxuan, are you hungry? I brought you food. I only came in after I saw that Father Chu had left."
