Chapter 979: No Move is Better than a Move



“Knock, knock… knock, knock…”

It was crystal clear, like the sound of a heartbeat next to your ear, echoing in the soundproof office without any other interference.

Yu Zhiming was alone with his eyes slightly closed, but in his mind there was a huge heart that kept expanding and contracting.

Although the heart contracted strongly, Yu Zhiming had already seen its weak nature.

This is a heart that is driven and works hard unwillingly.

What Yu Zhiming had to do was to find the entry point and apply external force to make the heart overloaded instantly and suffocate the machine.

However, this opportunity to break in was fleeting.

Yu Zhiming is fine when doing things by himself, as he can do it with precision and accuracy, but when controlling others through remote communication, he needs to control the lead time and coordinate seamlessly.

After searching for a pattern for a while, Yu Zhiming slowly said, "Get ready and listen to me count. When I count to one, you need to act without hesitation or hesitation, like a conditioned reflex. No hesitation allowed."

"Four...three...two...two..."

“Two…two…one”

As soon as Yu Zhiming said the word "one", a muffled "bang" sound was heard.

Then there was a chaotic noise.

After a moment, the ringing stopped and no sound came from the bulky phone.

However, Yu Zhiming was clear that he was still connected.

One minute passed...

Two minutes passed...

Four minutes later...

With the sudden sound of a keystroke, Yu Zhiming knew that the connection was over.

Suddenly, his mood became a little bad.

At the beginning, the situation was urgent and Yu Zhiming didn’t think too much about it, but now that the work is done, some ideas have come to mind.

As a doctor who treats and saves lives, he used his skills to harm others. Although that person deserved it, this feeling is really bad...

Yu Zhiming picked up the heavy brick-like phone, opened the door of the soundproof office, and handed the phone to Sun Lin who was standing just outside the door.

"I'm a doctor, I cure diseases and save lives. Don't come to me for things like this anymore."

Sun Lin replied softly, "Doctor Yu, I will convey your words word for word."

Yu Zhiming turned and walked towards the reception area. Before the door closed automatically, Zhou Mo slipped in.

She took a few quick steps and followed Yu Zhiming to the reception area, looking at the food on the coffee table.

"Doctor Yu, this food isn't very hot anymore, especially the scrambled eggs. They smell fishy when they get cold."

"Let me heat it up in the microwave."

Yu Zhiming slumped down on the sofa and said, "Take it all out. No need to bring it back. I have no appetite. I won't eat anymore."

What? No appetite?!

Zhou Mo realized that if Yu Zhiming, who would feel anxious and shiver if he didn't eat a meal, had no appetite, something extremely serious must have happened.

However, she also understood that she couldn't ask about that yet.

She sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Since I'm eating alone, there's no need to heat it up. It's too troublesome."

"Just a few bites will do."

As he spoke, Zhou Mo picked up a large piece of Chinese toon egg with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"It smells weird, but when you put it in your mouth, it has a unique fragrance. It feels like stinky tofu, which smells bad but tastes good."

Yu Zhiming glanced at Zhou Mo, who was trying hard to hold back his emotions, and snorted, "If you can't enjoy it, don't force yourself."

"Even in northern China, many people cannot get used to the taste of Chinese toon."

Hearing this, Zhou Mo quickly pulled out two tissues and spat out the Chinese toon egg in his mouth.

She drank a few more mouthfuls of yam, cordyceps and bone soup before the strange taste in her mouth dissipated.

"I'm sorry, I was showing off. I really can't get rid of the strange smell of this Chinese toon."

Zhou Mo apologized and then said, "For the past six months, I've been following you, Doctor Yu, and have had the pleasure of eating a lot of delicious food that makes me feel so happy and enjoyable."

"But to be honest, the most delicious foods are still those in my childhood memories."

Zhou Mo said with deep emotion, "I always feel that I can no longer eat food as delicious as I did in my childhood. It's like pork, it's not as delicious as it was when I ate it as a child."

“Is it because pigs nowadays are fed with feed?”

"The problem is, I've tried free-range black pork and Tibetan pork, and they don't taste as good as they did when I was a kid."

She looked at Yu Zhiming and asked, "Doctor Yu, you know a lot. Is it true that the food is not as delicious as it was when I was a child, or is there another reason?"

Yu Zhiming replied softly, "There are two reasons. One is that when I was a child, my taste buds were richer and more sensitive than they are now."

"Our sense of taste is fully developed at birth and peaks between six months and one year old. From that point on, our sense of taste slowly declines."

"That is to say, even if it was the exact same food, the flavors I tasted as a child would definitely be much richer than they are now."

After a pause, Yu Zhiming went on to explain, "There is another one, which is the psychological marginal utility."

He slowly introduced: "The first bite of food is the most delicious, the second bite is second, and the third bite is less delicious."

"When I was a kid, I often ate a certain food for the first time in my life, so the taste was naturally very memorable."

"Nowadays, we have eaten countless kinds of food. We have repeatedly elevated the vast sea and the vast Wushan Mountains. Naturally, we rarely eat food that can surprise us."

Zhou Mo nodded and said, "That's a well-reasoned answer. Full marks."

She wanted to ask another question, but Yu Zhiming spoke first and stopped her.

"Okay, hurry up and eat. There's no need to find topics to deliberately get me talking."

Yu Zhiming said in a deep voice: "I'm fine, I'm just feeling a little down for a while. I will adjust myself."

Zhou Mo was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Doctor Yu, I know you've been through a lot of hardships, and you've achieved success through hardship and perseverance. You have a strong and tenacious will."

"However, you are now completely different from the past. Apart from other things, you definitely have more people who care about you and love you than before, and your abilities are also quite powerful."

"When something happens, you don't have to face it alone."

Yu Zhiming smiled gently and said, "Zhou Mo, thank you for your concern. I'm fine. I'm just a little upset. I just need to relieve myself."

Zhou Mo asked again: "Do you want me to make an appointment with Director Chi of the psychiatry department for you? Or do you want me to ask for leave so you can go home and rest?"

"You've been doing too much work lately."

Yu Zhiming didn't answer, but instead urged, "Zhou Mo, if you don't eat quickly, the food will get cold."

Zhou Mo knew that he was tired of her persuasion, so he stopped talking and buried his head in eating...

Around noon, Yu Zhiming took a short nap, washed up, and prepared to start his afternoon work, but he was greeted by the farewell of the Poison King Liu Lao.

"Although Miss Fang is weak, her pulse is much better than that of the patients I treated before. This is probably because she has reduced the dosage of her medication."

After giving an introduction, Elder Liu added, "I'll ask my disciple to stay and take care of her while I return to the capital to prepare for another offensive tomorrow."

Yu Zhiming also said, "I will also help take care of Fang Xiaoman. Mr. Liu, don't worry."

After a pause, he continued, "There's no need to rush the development of alternative medicines. Slow work yields fine results."

"The ginseng life-extending pills I have in stock are enough to last for more than a year, so there's still plenty of time."

Old Liu laughed and said, "We're not in a hurry, and neither is Doctor Yu. I can tell you something..."

He paused for a moment and then slowly said, "Actually, from the beginning, we considered the possibility that this alternative drug might have quantity but not quality. Unexpectedly, our concerns were confirmed by clinical trials."

Yu Zhiming asked with delight, "Do you have any ideas for further improving and optimizing this alternative medicine?"

Old Liu chuckled and said, "I do have some ideas, but the specific effects will depend on this discussion and experiment."

“There should be some gains.”

Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "Mr. Liu, I still say the same thing, take it slow and steady, there is time, no need to rush."

He then turned and asked, "Mr. Liu, what do you think about the Jingcheng Chu family suddenly stopping the purchase of wild ginseng that is over fifty years old?"

Old Liu frowned and said, "I can't figure out what they're up to. It's probably related to our decision not to follow up on the acquisition."

"Doctor Yu, to be honest, the traditional Chinese medicine community in Beijing has been suffering for a long time. Everyone wants to see them suffer."

"So far, you are the only one who has made the Chu family suffer a setback and is capable of competing with them."

Yu Zhiming said modestly, "It's mainly because the Chu family set the tone too high. I just happen to have some strengths."

Elder Liu nodded gently and said, "The Chu family is just too arrogant. They've completely forgotten about being modest and cautious. They don't have the demeanor of a famous Chinese medicine expert at all."

He glanced at the time and said, "I should leave too. I have a plane to catch."

"Doctor Yu, when you go to the capital in the future, please remember to visit my Liu family."

Yu Zhiming said politely: "Of course, of course..."

After seeing off Mr. Liu, Yu Zhiming was about to start working when Duan Yi came over again.

"Doctor Yu, I heard that my ex-boyfriend has been suspended for investigation, and his current girlfriend's father was also dismissed from his post overnight and is under investigation."

"Doctor Yu, did you say hello?"

Yu Zhiming was also a little surprised by the news and shook his head, "No, I'm just a doctor and I'm still working in Binhai. I can't help people in Henan Province."

Duan Yi said softly, "When a person is powerful and important enough, when something happens, there is no need to call out or signal, and there will be people to help take care of it."

"Doctor Yu, you've reached the status of a superstar, where even without any tricks, you're better than with any."

Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "You're just talking nonsense. But this result can be considered as a vent for your anger."

Duan Yi said with a worried look on her face, "It's just that Doctor Yu, I feel like this may have been a bit too much."

Yu Zhiming said unconcernedly, "It's not about passing or not passing. They were the ones who were wrong first."

"The more ruthless the better in counterattack."

Duan Yi said hesitantly, "Doctor Yu, the girl's brother came to me and apologized on behalf of his sister. He also said he was willing to pay me 100,000 yuan, just asking that his sister be spared and not be charged with too severe a crime."

"Just to let his sister go?"

Duan Yi nodded and said, "That person said that his father's situation is irreversible and cannot be reversed."

"But his sister was deceived and misled, and has learned her lesson. I hope to give her a chance to reform."

Yu Zhiming asked, "What do you think?"

Duan Yi whispered, "I think a slap in the face for 100,000 yuan is fine..."
