"As soon as he spoke, he felt it was inappropriate, and quickly explained, "I have no intention of stealing your recipe."
Xinyan naturally understood, "I understand, youâre just interested in this ointment?"
Du Wenbin nodded with a smile, "Earlier I said weâd meet again by chance, and I didnât expect weâd meet so soon, and bring me such a big surprise."
Although she didnât mind giving some of the ointment to him, she didnât want it to seem too easy to obtain: "This time, Iâve only made this much. If youâre interested, perhaps I can spare a little."
Seeing Xinyan agree, Du Wenbin instructed the person who came with him, "Go find a smaller container and take a bit to pack."
The person responded and then turned to leave.
At this time, a young nurse at the hospital was called over. After Ge Yumei explained the situation, the nurse said, "You must ask the attending physician. If you use medicine indiscriminately and something happens, whoâs responsible?"
Ge Yumei replied gently, "Youâre right. Iâll go find the doctor now."
After greeting the people in the room, she followed the young nurse toward the doctorâs office.
Du Wenbin didnât care what the young nurse said and started a conversation with Xinyan, feeling that this Miss had made considerable progress: "By the way, how come youâre here?"
Xinyan did not hide it: "Iâm here for school."
Du Wenbinâs eyes lit up, "Which university are you enrolled in?"
Before Xinyan could answer, Chu Zhenhua, on the hospital bed, proudly said, "Mr. Du, Xinyan got into Jing University, isnât that impressive?"
Du Wenbin became somewhat anxious hearing Jing University, "Which department?"
Xinyan probably guessed his intentions but still honestly replied, "Western Language Department."
Listening, Du Wenbinâs face was full of disappointment, "Youâre clearly suited for medicine; why not choose the medical school?"
Xinyan paused for a moment, "Medicine is my hobby, but I didnât choose to study medicine because the profession is too sacred, too responsible, and too exhausting. Iâm a selfish person; I just want to live comfortably."
Du Wenbin also fell silent upon hearing her words, realizing the young girl wasnât wrong. To be a qualified doctor requires hard work, resilience, significant pressure, and too much responsibility.
Though somewhat regretful, he understood the young girlâs choice.
At this time, Ge Yumei also brought along Chu Zhenhuaâs attending doctor, "Doctor Dai, the medicine is here, please take a look."
Doctor Dai took the jar from Xinyanâs hand and examined it for a long time, "I studied Western medicine and am not proficient in Chinese medicine. Itâs best to have a master of Chinese medicine review this ointment before using it on patients."
After speaking, he was about to examine Chu Zhenhuaâs leg when he noticed Mr. Du standing beside him, "Are you Mr. Du?"
Du Wenbin nodded, "Indeed, my surname is Du."
Doctor Dai became somewhat excited, "I never expected to meet you here."
Thinking about the ointment just now, he was about to tell Ge Yumei âthereâs an expert hereâ, then suddenly remembered something, and directly changed his words, "Mr. Du, have you already reviewed the ointment?"
Du Wenbin smiled at him, "I have reviewed it; it is indeed suitable."
Doctor Dai asked, somewhat puzzled, "Mr. Du, could you tell me your diagnostic results?"
Du Wenbin did not answer him directly but looked at Ge Yumei, as this might involve other matters, and whether it could be discussed depended on the Chu familyâs intentions.
Ge Yumei thought for a moment and tactfully said, "Letâs first observe the efficacy of this ointment, and then discuss the matter."
After speaking, she looked at Doctor Dai.
