Ye Qingtao got into position and waited quietly for Commander Li to speak.

Commander Li hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to go straight to the point.

"Doctor Ye, I think your treatment this week has been quite effective."

"If possible, I hope you can continue to live here and help me recover for a while."

What Commander Li said was exactly what Ye Qingtao thought.

"No, we agreed on a week, so I will only stay here for a week."

"As a senior leader, Commander Li would never go back on his word on something like this, right?"

Ye Qingtao refused completely and even turned the tables on him.

Commander Li has been a leader for so many years that he has long been accustomed to giving orders.

Normally, as long as he asks, no one will refuse his request.

Ye Qingtao is still the only person who doesn't give him any face after he becomes the superior.

"If a month isn't enough, how about staying here for another week?"

Commander Li softened his tone and lowered his requirements.

"I told you that your illness cannot be cured in a short period of time. If I stay here for a week or a month, nothing will change."

"Now you only have two choices, the first is to let me go, the second is to follow me!"

Both of Ye Qingtao's requests are very tricky, and Commander Li has no way to choose?

"Is there really no third option? Even if you continue to stay?"

This was the second time President Li spoke, but Ye Qingtao still shook her head firmly.

"No, I've been here for a long time, now I should go back."

Ye Qingtao was determined and refused to give in no matter how much Commander Li begged her.

"Then you can stay for another day. I will give you an answer when the treatment is finished tomorrow morning."

Commander Li was still making final thoughts and did not intend to let her leave immediately.

Ye Qingtao hesitated slightly and then nodded.

Commander Li has already spoken several times, so she still has to give him some face.

"Okay, I'll go back and pack my things now. I'll leave immediately after the treatment tomorrow afternoon."

After saying this, Ye Qingtao explained the situation to Commander Li and left.

Her attitude was firm and there was no room for maneuver.

Commander Li looked at her determined back as she left and gave a wry smile.

In all his years of life, he had never seen a girl with such a strong opinion.

She said she was leaving and she had to leave without giving anyone face.

After Ye Qingtao left, Commander Li was forced to think about this problem.

Which is more important, curing the disease or getting a job?

He knew his body very well. Before he received treatment, he was once unable to get out of bed and needed help even when he was defecating or peeing.

He has made many contributions over the years, and the army will not give up on him even after he retires.

The only difference is that you take off this skin and return to being an ordinary person.

But with his current physical condition, even if he was forced to sit in this position, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

It would be better to retire peacefully, maybe you can live a few more years.

Commander Li had been thinking about this matter seriously throughout the morning.

He was a little absent-minded during lunch. Once a person has something on his mind, he will lose motivation to do anything.

He took a nap in the afternoon and made the decision instantly.

Faced with power and life, he ultimately chose life.

Only when you are alive can you have everything.

If you die, there is nothing.

He always kept these two sentences in mind, so he kept telling himself not to put the cart before the horse.

Ye Qingtao was still making medicine in the room, and Commander Li had already called his superiors.

The call was not connected at first. At his age, nothing could make him nervous, but at this moment his heart was in a knot.

He doesn't have much time left. If the phone doesn't go through, he won't be able to contact his superiors in time. Ye Qingtao will leave tomorrow, and he can't be so shameless as to keep her there again.

This time he had already reached his limit, and he couldn't continue to lose face.

Mayor Li hung up the phone and called again ten minutes later. This time the phone rang three times before someone finally picked up.

Commander Li breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize later that his back was already wet with sweat.

"Leader, I'm Li Shangdong, this is it..."

Commander Li was still confused after hanging up the phone.

He didn't expect that his superiors would approve his vacation.

This means that he does not have to retire for the time being and can continue to stay in his position.

But in fact, he has been in this position for so many years, and his health is getting worse, so he is thinking about retiring.

This time when I called my old leader, I also made up my mind to retire.

He thinks that older people should take their health seriously.

Only when people are alive is life real; when people die, there is nothing left.

The old leader said that he understood his thoughts and that if he really wanted to retire, he could retire in good health after his illness was cured.

In this way, during the period of treatment, she can still be taken care of by the army and can cure her illness without any worries.

Teacher Li thinks this is also a method.

He is an old man, he should at least leave some protection for himself.

Although I felt a little uneasy, I agreed.

After confirming his idea, Commander Li relaxed completely.

He used to think that he would have to live here for the rest of his life and would never be able to stand up on his own and take care of himself.

Now, after only a week of treatment, he is already able to get out of bed. If he continues with the treatment, what kind of miracle will happen?

Commander Li saw hope in this matter, so he insisted on going his own way this time.

He gave up so much just to survive.

"Xiao Zhou, Xiao Li, come in for a moment."

Commander Li called in two guards.

The two walked into the ward one after the other and saluted after entering.

"Chief, please give me your orders."

"Pack my things today. I plan to leave with Doctor Ye tomorrow."

Commander Li briefly stated his decision, and the two guards were a little shocked.

"Commander, are you really going to leave the sanatorium? The living environment here is really suitable for you to recuperate. If you move to the mountainous area where Dr. Ye is, the conditions in all aspects will be greatly reduced."

Under normal circumstances, they would never dare to disobey the leader's orders.

But this time, Commander Li made such an important decision, and the two of them, as his personal guards, had to remind him.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'm an old man and every decision I make is carefully considered. I will never act rashly."

"I have already consulted with my superiors and have made arrangements for the follow-up work, so all you have to do is pack up."
