What would the majority in the world pursue in their lifetime? Power, wealth, and status. But when they obtained all of that, they would realise that their health was beyond their control, despite what they possessed. Worldly possessions did not come when we're born, nor could they be taken away with us after our death. In the end, we're just a pile of ash when we die. Although there might be those that try to seek immortality, like how Emperor Qin dispatched people all over to seek immortality.
Despite all the power, wealth, and status, no one could control the life and death of themselves and others. This had also been the sore spot of humanity, which was why wishes would typically be about health.
Jing Guoxiang was 48 this year, and also one of the youngest leaders in the country. As one of the main focuses for grooming in the Southeast Military Camp, he was young and promising. But at this moment, he only felt powerless and despair. Despair was never the word for him, despite when he roamed the borders, fighting terrifying enemies. But his daughter was currently critically ill with a 90% chance of dying.
He took a deep breath when he heard sounds coming from the gate of the emergency room. He walked out and saw Chen Jingyi with a group of people following him, and they entered the surgery room. When Chen Jingyi saw Jing Guoxiang, he introduced, "These are specialists from the TCM a.s.sociation, accompanied by the Divine Physician of Korea, Mr. Kim Jung-ho himself!"
Jin Guoxiang solemnly nodded his head and replied, "I will leave my daughter in your hands. If you guys can help her, I will surely thank you heavily!"
Chen Jingyi responded, "Major General Jin, this is our responsibility, and I a.s.sure you that we will do our best!"
When they walked into the surgery room and changed into the surgery uniforms, Lou Zi'an took note of Su Tao following them and asked Liu Ruochen with his brows knitted, "Who's this person?"
"Su Tao, this year's Physician King!" Liu Ruochen sighed at the fact that Lou Zi'an only realised him now.
Lou Zi'an's tone instantly turned unhappy. "What's he doing here? He has an issue with his ident.i.ty and origin, nor is he part of the TCM a.s.sociation!"
Liu Ruochen replied, "He's a friend that I have invited over, and I believe in his medical skill. If you feel that he shouldn't be here, then I will leave as well!"
"You!" Lou Zi'an did not expect that Liu Ruochen, who was usually mild, would suddenly threaten him. "Liu Ruochen, do you know what you're doing?! As a member of the TCM a.s.sociation, you should obey the orders given to you by the organization. What you're doing right now has violated the rules, in which, I can request to the TCM a.s.sociation to have you expelled!"
"There are only doctors and the patient right now; there's no national boundary or organization!" Liu Ruochen responded.
Lou Zi'an took a deep breath. He still needed Liu Ruochen right now. Although there's Kim Jung-ho, he's, after all, a Korean. Thus, Lou Zi'an still had his guard up against Kim Jung-ho in his heart. Suppressing the unpleasantness in his heart, he said in a solemn voice, "Fine. He can come with us. But don't cause any trouble!"
Watching everything from the side, Su Tao only felt how detestable Lou Zi'an was at how high he's holding his head.
Lou Zi'an did not come help for the sake of the patient, but the president of the hospital, Chen Jingyi had asked for his help. At the same time, the patient's background was also unusual. Su Tao could tell that Lou Zi'an was a person blinded by power and an indifferent person, which he could tell when the latter started to doubt his entry to the surgery room. Most people would speak out for the disturbance that might cause to the patient if there were too many people around, but Lou Zi'an suspected his ident.i.ty and qualifications, instead.
