Chapter 185 Expectations
Li Liping secretly thought: Three years later, her career will reach its peak.
At that time, a serious disease was ravaging the city. As the director of Kyoto Hospital, he personally led a scientific research project and successfully saved the lives of thousands of citizens, which greatly increased his personal reputation.
She carefully looked at the young doctor in front of her, with some interest in her eyes.
"How do you know that I will get better because of this? Life is a process full of variables. You know, helping the villagers of Congjia Village is completely voluntary and no fees are charged. To help this sick little girl, it may take a lot of resources. You are aware of this, right?"
Qiao Jin nodded and said, "President Li, I hope to volunteer to join this research. If I can help Kyoto Hospital take a step further in cytological virus research, it will also be a special experience for President Li."
Li Liping smiled and said, "Qiao Jin, you are really my type. I knew you would come to me because you must have thought that I would not refuse your request, and you have also thought clearly about your plans, right? I have roughly guessed your plan."
"I really admire you, Dean Li. I think you can be my life mentor and guide me in the direction of my life. I hope Dean Li will have smooth sailing and will not suffer any harm in his future work and life. I believe you will achieve more."
Qiao Jin's words were full of sincere emotions, and her eyes revealed her deep respect for Li Liping.
Li Liping lowered her head unconsciously, with a complicated expression flashing in her eyes.
Over the years, few people have shown her such care and support, and this moment made ripples in her heart.
Although Li Liping's face did not show much emotion, the warmth in her heart was hard to suppress.
In fact, Li Liping has always worked hard in her career and has never felt guilty.
Her serious attitude towards work won unanimous praise from colleagues and patients, but she always felt guilty towards her only son.
After marrying Zhang Ning, they had only this one child.
When she was pregnant, the hospital doctor conducted a detailed examination and eventually found that the child might have a genetic disease.
The situation at the time was even more worrying because Zhang Ning's grandfather died of a blood disease, which put Li Liping in a dilemma.
Despite this, after developing a deep bond with the fetus in her womb, she decided to give birth to him after careful consideration.
When the child developed a high fever and suddenly fell into a coma at the age of three, it was diagnosed that he had a genetic blood disorder.
The whole family felt extremely distressed about this result.
The only way to save his life is to find a suitable bone marrow transplant recipient.
And in this difficult process, the person most likely to save the child is the child's father Zhang Ning.
However, as time went on, the relationship between Li Liping and Zhang Ning became increasingly tense.
When they first entered the marriage palace, Zhang Ning was just an inconspicuous lawyer.
As he married Li Liping, he began to get involved in some commercial legal cases, and gradually came to the fore and gained some fame in the industry.
But after he became famous, his attitude subtly changed - he became a little arrogant and was only willing to take on the so-called "top" cases.
In this regard, Li Liping, as his wife, has tried to communicate with him many times.
I hope to make the other person understand that one needs to be down-to-earth and steady in doing things and avoid excessive pursuit of superficial glamour.
But Zhang Ning disagreed, and retorted that the reason why Li Liping was able to become the head of a hospital at a young age was because of her family background; without strong social resources as support, it is actually difficult to succeed through personal efforts alone, which he thought was totally unacceptable.
The two of them often quarreled about this matter, and almost every conversation turned into an argument, and the atmosphere became very tense.
The most recent escalation of the conflict was because Zhang Ning actually used the child's illness as a threat. He told Li Liping that if she did not help him in his career, he would refuse to treat the child.
At the same time, he also grimly reminded that if the two really divorced, according to the law, children with blood diseases would usually be awarded to the father because only the father could ensure the child's long-term treatment needs.
This undoubtedly touched the softest and most vulnerable part of Li Liping.
Over the years, she has put a lot of effort into researching treatments for this rare disease, investing a lot of time and energy, but there has been no substantial progress so far.
Qiao Jin now wants to do her best to encourage her, hoping to cheer her up.
However, after hearing these words, Li Liping just smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Do you really think I can succeed? To be honest, I am no longer so confident. Although I have paid so much, I still don't see even a little hope. This feeling is really discouraging."
"After all, you are still young, and perhaps you haven't experienced too many setbacks yet."
She sighed, her eyes revealing a bit of fatigue, "But you have to know that when you really face failure, you will find that life is full of disappointment and helplessness. This is the norm in life."
Despite this, when seeing the elder in front of him looking so negative, Qiao Jin still said gently: "President Li, please believe that you can succeed. I support and trust you from the bottom of my heart. Maybe your husband is indeed one of the important reasons for your misfortune. Of course, as a junior, I should not give you advice on whether to divorce, but if President Li is willing to listen to me..."
At this point, Qiao Jin hesitated again. How should she express to the other party that she could actually foresee what would happen to her in the next ten years?
Just as Qiao Jin was hesitating, Li Liping pursed her lips slightly, as if seeing through her thoughts.
From the first time they met, she had an indescribable liking for this girl, as if she were an old friend whom she hadn't seen for many years.
This young female doctor always gave her a sense of déjà vu, as if they had once had a very close relationship in some distant past.
Now, Qiao Jin invited her to explore cell viruses together, which undoubtedly ignited her fighting spirit.
After repeatedly thinking about the significance and possibility of this proposal, Li Liping finally nodded: "Okay, but if I really start researching, I'm afraid the time will be very tight, because you know, I have other research work to deal with. So, Qiao Jin, you need to help me with some preparatory work and data collection before the experiment. Are you willing to take on these? Do you really think it's okay?"
Qiao Jin responded in an affirmative but respectful manner: "Of course I look forward to working with you. It is a very valuable opportunity for me to be able to work with you to solve this problem."
