Although Su Tao couldn't understand j.a.panese, he was able to understand Mima's story with a translator around. Mima and Nitta were fellow students back in University, and the two of them have three kids right now, a boy and two girls. Nitta Watanabe had been dreaming of becoming an outstanding performing artist, but he had only managed to make appearances in small films back in the country. To feed his family, he came to know Big Sister Ren and signed a contract with the management company before coming to China to develop his career as a famous villain in war films.
However, Mima had no idea about her husband's lifestyle in China, since she seldom flies over, and her husband would only return two or three times a year. Thus, Mima had been a standard housewife. Since the start of last year, her husband seldom called home. But despite that, she still immediately rushed over upon hearing the news of her husband.
Su Tao's heart started to soften. Although he had no good impression of Nitta Watanabe, he's the pillar of Mima. So if he died, then her pillar would also collapse.
Half an hour later, they arrived in Qiongjin City's People's Hospital. On the way over, He Deqiu had already made a call to get the staff to prepare the surgery room and do another round of checkups for Nitta Watanabe.
After changing his clothes, Su Tao entered the surgery room. He first took the pulse of the patient, which was worse than he had imagined. Not only has the virus entered his heart, but it has spread to his inner organs. Taking a deep breath, Su Tao was preparing to use the Detoxifying Acupuncture Technique.
Since Nitta Watanabe was suffering from chronic poisoning, Su Tao needed some time to deal with it. Roughly half an hour later, he removed all the silver needles and walked out of the surgery room.
He Deqiu was surprised and asked, "How is it?"
Su Tao frankly answered, "He should be fine. He will be awake in roughly half an hour. As for medicine, prescribe him with those that nourish his inner organs, then he will completely recover."
He Deqiu sighed with doubt written on his face. Evidently, he couldn't believe that the illness that had troubled him for days would be so easily resolved.
When Nitta Watanabe was sent to the observation ward, Ning Ru, Man Yu, and Bian Bo rushed over in surprise. They never expected Su Tao to treat Nitta Watanabe so swiftly. However, Bian Bo still held disbelief for Su Tao and looked at the pulse monitor before solemnly saying, "I don't believe that he is really able to treat Nitta Watanabe."
Feeling that Bian Bo was too narrow-minded, Man Yu furrowed her brows. "Bian Bo, you have an issue with your att.i.tude."
Bian Bo's gaze darkened, but he took a deep breath and kept silent. Actually, his mood was understandable. If He Deqiu was able to treat Nitta Watanabe, he would naturally be happy. But right now, it was Su Tao who treated Nitta Watanabe, someone who was even younger than him. Thus, he felt unbalanced in his heart.
This was human nature. When something that couldn't be accomplished by you was done by someone else, you would start to doubt him and even resort to fabricating rumors and plots to set up the person who was more outstanding than you.
As time pa.s.sed, Mima couldn't stay seated and paced back and forth in He Deqiu's office, while Su Tao was chatting with Di s.h.i.+yuan regarding the TCM Building for Jianghuai Hospital and the expansion plan for the Three Flavour Hall.
"The funds for the TCM Building have arrived, and we can start the construction next month." Di s.h.i.+yuan had spent an enormous amount of energy to follow up with the Provincial Hall and Finance to ensure the funds reached on time, and this had also proved his ability. Usually, these funds would take a long time to arrive, at least two to three years. Thus, it really wasn't easy for Di s.h.i.+yuan, who got it done in less than two months.
