However, as an excellent doctor, he is more concerned with improving cure rates than personal relationships.

"Shen Rong, I have a plant."

Li Jiandong said.

"This plant is extremely tenacious. No matter how strong the wind and rain are, it can stand firm."

"Moreover, it can make the surrounding plants and trees grow lush."

"do you know?"

“It takes a lot of thought and effort to take care of this plant.”

Shen Rong was slightly stunned, not understanding why Li Jiandong suddenly brought up this matter.

“Shen Rong, if you have enough determination and perseverance to nurture this plant and be inspired by it to grow, then I believe you have the opportunity to become an outstanding Chinese medicine practitioner.”

Li Jiandong looked at her seriously.

In the Chinese medicine pharmacy of Baiji Hospital, Li Jiandong and Shen Rong worked closely together, communicating in low voices.

Dr. Li Jiandong was deeply impressed by Shen Rong's knowledge and enthusiasm for traditional Chinese medicine.

After a period of hard work, Shen Rong not only mastered the basic skills of drug prescription, but was also able to infer the efficacy of Chinese medicinal materials from their smell and color.

One afternoon, the sun shone through the leaves into the garden.

The garden is an oasis within Baizhi Hospital, full of green and swaying in the breeze.

Flowers are blooming and the fragrance is everywhere.

Shen Rong and Li Jiandong strolled leisurely in the garden.

Behind them was a row of blooming peonies, like a cloud of gorgeous flowers.

When the petals unfold, it is like a group of pretty girls falling forward.

Shen Rong's heartbeat quickened a little, "Doctor, I'm so sorry for you..."

Li Jiandong interrupted her calmly.

"Shen Rong, you are a smart girl. I admire your courage and perseverance."

"But as a man who already has a wife and a family, please understand that I cannot accept this."

Shen Rong lowered her head.

"Doctor, please forgive my rashness."

Li Jiandong patted her shoulder gently, "Shen Rong, there is no need to apologize."

“We can continue to maintain a good mentor-apprentice relationship and friendship.”

“I believe that in the future, we will have more opportunities to learn from each other and grow on the path of traditional Chinese medicine.”

Shen Rong raised her head, her eyes moist.

"Yes, Doc, I understand."

"We are master and apprentice, and also friends."

“I will continue to study hard and give my best when treating patients.”

Li Jiandong nodded, "Now, let's get back to work."

"There are still many patients waiting for our help."

Li Jiandong and Shen Rong returned to the staff cafeteria of Baiji Hospital. It happened to be lunch time.

The cafeteria was crowded and bustling.

Li Jiandong and Shen Rong found an empty seat and sat down, starting to enjoy their delicious lunch.

Just as they started to eat, several employees sat together and chatted happily.

Someone suddenly mentioned the news that Dr. Li Jiandong was married, which immediately attracted the attention of people around him.

"Do you all know this?"

"I heard that Dr. Li Jiandong is married."

An employee said excitedly.

"Really?".
"From a reliable source?"

another employee asked curiously.

"That's right. I just heard it from his apprentice Lian Qiao."

Upon hearing the news, the cafeteria suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at Li Jiandong and Shen Rong in surprise.

"is that true?"

"But I thought he was single."

An employee whispered.

"Yeah, that's disappointing."

Another employee said helplessly.

Although everyone was a little disappointed, they also had more respect for Li Jiandong.

"Maybe he doesn't want his personal life to become a topic at work, which is his usual style."

An employee said with understanding.

"Yes, now it seems that we really know too little."

“He was a very dedicated and committed person to the career of medicine.”

Another employee added.

While everyone was talking, Li Jiandong and Shen Rong noticed the attention and discussions around them.

Although a little embarrassed, they decided to stay calm. Li Jiandong and Shen Rong walked out of the staff cafeteria and came to the meeting room of Baiji Hospital.

The atmosphere in the conference room was warm and lively, and everyone was waiting in their seats.

Li Jiandong walked to the podium and looked at the doctors sitting below with a smile.

He spoke cheerfully.

“Dear colleagues, thank you for your attention to me.”

"Today I would like to share with you some of my experiences and insights from combining Chinese and Western medicine treatment methods over the years."

There was silence in the conference room, and everyone was looking at Li Jiandong with expectation.

"We all know that Chinese and Western medicine have different theoretical bases and treatment methods."

“However, in my many years of clinical practice, I have found that combining the two can achieve better treatment results.”

As Li Jiandong spoke, he wrote down a few key words on the whiteboard.

“Evidence-based medicine, holistic concepts, acupuncture and medicinal diet.”

“It starts with evidence-based medicine.”

Li Jiandong pointed to the key words with a pencil.

"Modern medicine emphasizes clinical evidence, while traditional Chinese medicine focuses on treating diseases through syndrome differentiation."

“Combined, the two can lead to more accurate diagnosis and treatment, and better medical outcomes for patients.”

He glanced at everyone in the meeting room and felt their attention on his words.

He continued.

“The second is the overall concept.”

He picked up a rope from the table.

"Like this rope, the human body is a complex and interconnected whole."

“So, when treating patients, we need to approach it holistically, not just focusing on the symptoms themselves, but also considering the patient’s physical and mental health.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"There is also acupuncture and medicated food."

Li Jiandong continued to explain.

"Acupuncture, as a unique treatment method in traditional Chinese medicine, can regulate the body's yin and yang balance and promote the flow of qi and blood."

"Medicinal food can regulate the body through food."

“In my clinical practice, I have found that combining these two approaches can better improve treatment outcomes.”

The conference room fell silent again, and everyone was pondering over what Li Jiandong had said.

Under the gaze of everyone, one seemed to see a gleam of light flashing in Li Jiandong's eyes.

He is full of passion and innovation in his work, an attitude that has won him the respect of his peers.

The doctors attending the meeting began to express their views and experiences, and had a lively discussion with Li Jiandong.

"Doctor Li, your experience has given us great inspiration."

A young doctor said.

“I also came up with the idea of ​​combining Chinese and Western medical treatments.”

Another doctor added.

"This allows us to more fully understand and respond to patients' problems."
By the end of the meeting, everyone had gained a lot.

More than an hour had passed, and people began to get up and leave the meeting room, returning to their respective work.

Li Jiandong sat attentively in a small room in Baekje Hospital, carefully studying the prescription ratio in his hand.

He scanned every detail with a professional eye, constantly making revisions and adjustments.

This new prescription was summarized by him through years of accumulated experience and future knowledge, and he hopes it can bring cure to more patients.

Suddenly, a young man who looked ordinary but exuded an extraordinary temperament appeared in front of the clinic.

He bowed politely to Li Jiandong and then spoke.

"Doctor Li, I was sent by the hospital's senior leadership to deliver the message."

"They hope to see you."

Li Jiandong was slightly surprised, but he did not show any emotional fluctuations.

This invitation was not a surprise to him.

“May I ask why the senior leaders want to see me?”

“Do I need to prepare anything?”

Li Jiandong asked calmly.

The young man replied with a smile.

“Senior leaders heard your speech at the conference and were very interested in your ideas and innovative approaches to medicine.”

“They want to know more about your experience.”

Li Jiandong said thoughtfully.

“Okay, I’d love to talk to senior leadership and share my medical philosophy.”

"Please tell them I'm available any time."

The young man nodded respectfully and said that he would convey the news to senior leaders as soon as possible.

Li Jiandong looked at the young man's departing back, and a sense of anticipation welled up in his heart.

Li Jiandong then devoted himself to the research of prescriptions.

He carefully examined the properties and effects of each herb and each raw material, and constantly thought about how to use them reasonably in treatment.

Time passed unnoticed, but his desire to continue exploring the medical path never faded. Li Jiandong put down the prescription in his hand and began to organize the materials and drug samples he brought with him.

.

While selecting the important documents he needed to take with him, he was thinking about the purpose and significance of his meeting with senior leaders.

This invitation was a great opportunity for him, and also a recognition and affirmation of his medical skills. At this moment, the young man appeared at the door again.

He looked at Li Jiandong and said with a smile.

"Doctor Li, please follow me."

"The senior leaders are waiting for you at the Thirteenth Mansion."

"Ok."

Li Jiandong quickly sorted out the information and followed the young man out of the study.

The two walked through the hospital corridor, moving quickly through the crowd.

Li Jiandong couldn't help but have some doubts in his mind.

"Can you give me more information about the senior leadership wanting to see me?"

He deliberately slowed down his pace and walked side by side with the young man.

The young man replied with a smile.

"The senior leaders are very interested in your medical skills."

“After hearing about your reputation and prowess in the medical community, they decided to speak to you in person.”

“I hope that through this meeting I can learn more about your ideas and innovative thinking.”

Li Jiandong said calmly.

"I see, thanks for the info."

The two continued walking forward, and the noisy crowd gradually moved away, replaced by quiet and peaceful streets.

The Thirteenth Mansion stands in front, majestic and solemn.

Li Jiandong followed the young man into the Thirteenth Mansion and came to the reception room inside.

He looked around and sighed.
The reception room is decorated in a gorgeous yet elegant style, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls demonstrate its profound cultural heritage.

The calligraphy and paintings on the wall are in cursive and official scripts, side by side, like the confluence of rivers, showing the unique charm of Chinese calligraphy.

A large mahogany table was placed in the center of the room, carved with exquisite patterns. It attracted Li Jiandong's attention and also highlighted the wealth and power passed down from generation to generation by the owner's family.

Seeing these decorations and furnishings, Li Jiandong thought to himself: Perhaps today's meeting will open a new chapter for him and provide him with a broader space to display his talents and skills.

He smiled faintly, his heart full of anticipation.

Sitting next to the big table, Li Jiandong gently stroked the delicate and smooth texture on the table, feeling the atmosphere created by the interweaving of history and power.

He once again looked at the various precious and ancient furnishings in the room, like treasures that silently told the story of history.

The existence of these cultural heritages has made Li Jiandong more determined in his pursuit and belief in the medical profession.

Suddenly, there were light footsteps behind him.

He turned around and saw a senior leader wearing a simple Zhongshan suit and smiling.

Li Jiandong immediately stood up to show his respect for the senior leader. Li Jiandong smiled and stood up to signal to the senior leader.

The big boss looked at Li Jiandong and smiled.

"Mr. Li, I heard that you have extraordinary attainments in the field of medicine. I have specially arranged time to communicate with you today. Please take a seat."

He pointed to the sofa next to him.

Li Jiandong sat down respectfully, but also felt excited inside.

He knew that this opportunity was very important to him, and being recognized and appreciated by senior leaders would bring more opportunities for his medical career.

The big boss turned his attention to Li Jiandong.

"I heard that you have achieved some remarkable results in combining Chinese and Western medicine."

"I wonder if you could give me a detailed report?"

With a confident expression, Li Jiandong began to introduce his work and achievements in detail to the senior leaders.

"In recent years, I have been committed to combining traditional Chinese medicine with modern medicine, and have made some breakthroughs in treating many difficult and complicated diseases."

He then took out several documents and explained the medical theories and practical experience behind each document one by one.

He demonstrated his innovative prescription and explained the healing mechanism and efficacy to senior leaders.

The big boss listened attentively, nodded from time to time, and asked Li Jiandong questions from time to time.

Li Jiandong answered each question confidently and in detail with a deep understanding of his field.

He clearly expressed his love and pursuit of the medical profession.

After listening to it, the senior leader praised it repeatedly.

"Mr. Li, you have solved many difficult problems by combining Chinese and Western medicine, and have achieved remarkable results."

“Your achievements are truly admirable.”

Li Jiandong replied with a smile.

“Thank you for recognizing my efforts and achievements. This is a great encouragement to me.”

The big boss waved his hand.

"You're welcome, it's well deserved."

“Your work will bring hope and healing to many patients.”

He paused.

"I plan to promote your innovative treatment method at the focus meeting and strive for more resource support for you."

Li Jiandong was extremely excited; this was the opportunity he had longed for.

“Thank you for your support and affirmation.”

"I will continue to work hard and contribute more to the medical profession."

The big leader stood up with a smile and extended his hand to Li Jiandong.

“Congratulations on your achievements and I hope you will continue to be innovative and passionate.”

"We will provide you with support and help." Li Jiandong carefully observed the leader's face and complexion.

In this hall, lights illuminate the area where the big leader is focusing.

Li Jiandong's heart moved slightly, and he noticed subtle abnormal signs in the leader's body.

Although he did not show any obvious discomfort, as a doctor, Li Jiandong was very sensitive to various subtle changes in the human body.

He quickly thought that perhaps he could give the big leader a simple physical examination.

Although time is limited and we cannot check every physical indicator in detail, we can at least get some clues through simple observation.

Standing up quietly, Li Jiandong walked to the big leader and carefully checked his pulse and breathing.

He could sense a hidden power of forbearance in the great leader.

However, beneath this strength lies weakness and exhaustion.

Since he was well versed in Chinese medicine, Li Jiandong was able to determine through observation that the leader was not in particularly good health.

Could it be an ordinary illness? Li Jiandong thought.

A thought suddenly flashed through Li Jiandong's mind, and he involuntarily summoned the system in his body that only he could know and see.

The system helped him answer many questions, but it also provided a lot of fun and excitement to Li Jiandong's life.

The system emits a faint but clear sound.

"Master, do you need me to analyze the leader's physical condition for you?"

Li Jiandong responded after thinking for a moment.

"Yes, please help me analyze it."

The assistant began analysis.

"The leader's current physical condition is not optimistic, and it seems that his ability to recover is somewhat limited."

"This may be due to excessive work pressure or other factors." Li Jiandong cleared his throat.

He walked up to the big leader and spoke softly.

"Boss, I have something to tell you."

The big leader raised his head, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Doctor Huaimin, what can I do for you?"

Li Jiandong's voice was full of sincerity and concern.

"I noticed that you weren't in very good health."

"Although I can't confirm the specific problem, from what I can see, you may have hepatitis."

The big boss was stunned.

He never thought he would get this disease.

He couldn't help but ask.

"How did you determine that?"

Li Jiandong replied with a smile.

“As a doctor, I am very sensitive to subtle changes in the human body.”

"You are currently presenting with several signs and symptoms consistent with hepatitis."

"For example, a slightly dull complexion, loss of appetite, fatigue and indigestion."

The big boss was shocked when he heard this.

He has always paid great attention to his health and image, but he actually neglected such an important issue.
Li Jiandong continued.

"Although this is only a preliminary diagnosis and the specific situation cannot be confirmed, I still recommend that you go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to avoid delaying treatment."

There was a hint of hesitation in the leader's eyes, and he asked.

"Doctor Huaimin, do you think it is necessary?"

Li Jiandong answered without hesitation.

"Of course it's necessary."

"Your health is the capital of revolution. Your health is related to the well-being of millions of people."

"I understand that you are busy with work and don't have time to go to the hospital to wait in line for the test results, but give me a chance, I can arrange a private consultation for you and guarantee the accuracy of the test results."

The big leader fell into deep thought.

He could feel Li Jiandong's concern and sincerity for his physical health.

Such a highly skilled Chinese medicine master and scientist is full of confidence in his words.

He knew he couldn't delay any longer.

The big boss sat on a chair in the consultation room, looking nervous and worried.

He tried to hide his inner anxiety, but his face was full of worry.

The doctor stood aside, staring at the leader intently with a serious expression.

Li Jiandong stood beside the big leader, watching his expression change.

The doctor finally broke the silence and spoke slowly.

"Boss, indeed, according to our further examination results just now, your liver function is somewhat abnormal."

"Although we still need further detailed examinations to determine the specific situation, the preliminary diagnosis is hepatitis."

This news shocked the leader.

Although Li Jiandong had been warned before that he might have hepatitis, he couldn't help but feel worried when he heard the doctor's diagnosis himself.

He knew that hepatitis had a serious impact on health and work.

The doctor saw that the leader looked nervous and quickly comforted him. (End of this chapter)
