Chapter 110 - A Pair of Exotic Parents
"Are you busy today?" Su Tao and Lu s.h.i.+miao walked side-by-side while wearing white coats. She was tall and fair-skinned, along with a gorgeous appearance, while the man casually stuck his hands into his pockets with a smile hanging on the corner of his lips, looking graceful. This pair attracted all sorts of gazes, and if Lu s.h.i.+miao hadn't been married, someone might have thought that they're the golden couple of Jianghuai Hospital.
"Not particularly busy! Usually, the Paediatrics Department will be busy on the weekend, so I'm usually freer after 10 a.m." Lu s.h.i.+miao subconsciously walked one step behind Su Tao as she followed him.
Su Tao sighed and lowered his voice, "Then pay attention to your rest. Looking from your complexion, your mental state doesn't seem too good. Are your periods irregular as well? Do you need me to prescribe you something?"
Raising her head to look at Su Tao, Lu s.h.i.+miao blushed. "Who needs you to act like you care?!"
When she finished, she quickened her steps, leaving Su Tao stunned before he helplessly shook his head and followed up. According to Su Tao's guess, Lu s.h.i.+miao should have been experiencing insomnia over the last few days, causing the disorder in her body. If it wasn't treated for a long time, it might even result in her period being in disorder.
Seeing that Su Tao was following her, Lu s.h.i.+miao felt relieved in her heart. Since that incident from before, she had been feeling guilty about it for a long time. In terms of age, she's a few years older than Su Tao, and it was naturally her initiative that caused the mistakes between them.
Lu s.h.i.+miao had once considered not to have alone time with Su Tao anymore after he's back and purely stay in contact as colleagues. But when she saw how Su Tao cheaply smiled, she felt her heart thumping out of her control. Is this love?
She had always been the kind of person that didn't put love in the front in her heart. Otherwise, she wouldn't have married Qiao Bo without having a deep understanding of the latter.
Su Tao followed her into the Paediatrics Department and Lu s.h.i.+miao looked at him for a few seconds before bursting into smiles, that left Su Tao a little surprised. Could it be that she had gone insane?
"You're a shadow following me! You're the TCM Department's Head, so why are you following me and not returning to your own office?" Lu s.h.i.+miao flipped through the medical doc.u.ments and chose two tough ones and tossed one to Su Tao as she ordered, "Since you've sent yourself up to my door, then I have to grasp the opportunity well. Help me look at these two patients!"
Su Tao initially intended to chat with Lu s.h.i.+miao to ease the tension in their relations.h.i.+p. But seeing that she had immediately dumped work to him, he could only helplessly smile while flipping through the file. "Leukemia in young children?"
Nodding her head, Lu s.h.i.+miao spoke with a grave expression. "If it's not a tough one, how can I let you, the famed Divine Physician of Jianghuai Hospital look at? The Donghu District has been expanding its paper making factories, causing pollution in the environment. The foundation of TCM was based on balance and slowly seeking an opportunity to live. As society progressed along with the development of science, it had also disrupted the foundation of TCM.
If TCM wanted to develop, they must advance further and treat problems that couldn't be treated with western medicine, so that they could achieve a breakthrough with the society that had the dominating western medicine.
The treatment for leukemia was mainly through chemotherapy. But if one wanted to resolve it completely, then they would have to undergo bone marrow transplant surgery.
