Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1979 Love Ends When It's Over
Back then, Bian Mu diligently and independently managed a brand-new TCM department at Huikang Hospital. The hospital assigned Nurse Lin and Nurse Sun to assist him. Although their overall personal qualities could not compare with Nurse Ye's, to be fair, Nurse Lin's professional skills were still quite commendable.

At that time, Bian Mu always thought that Nurse Lin was specially selected by Qian Xiaotong to help him, and he had no suspicion of her at all, letting her arrange everything for him.

Looking back now, Bian Mu realizes how naive she was.

Listen carefully to the underlying meaning. Feng Lezhang has indeed aged; his speech is no longer as shrewd and calculating as it once was. It turns out... Nurse Lin's mother and Feng Lezhang's wife had such a past relationship! That means... Nurse Lin is most likely Feng Lezhang's "spy" planted by him. Digging even deeper, it's possible that Nurse Lin giving him the lowest evaluation score at a crucial moment was exactly what Feng Lezhang intended!
Damn it! I even saved Feng Lezhang's life by a large margin!
Bian Mu has a broad perspective, and with the passage of time, it's naturally not good to hold a grudge against them too much. Alas! It seems... this debt can only be settled with God one by one in the future!

"There really is such a thing as a split soul?! I've been a doctor my whole life... It's almost unbelievable!" After a long while, Feng Lezhang finally exclaimed.

"You later focused on Western medicine, although you are also an expert in traditional Chinese medicine. Naturally, some so-called unorthodox schools of thought in traditional Chinese medicine are not to your liking! In fact, they are the result of their many years of practical experience. The academics have always been very secretive about this. It's actually understandable. A disease like that of Sister Lin's husband is extremely rare in the general population. It is fundamentally different from 'schizophrenia,' so... it's hard to define in terms of teaching methods. If you go a little deeper in university classrooms, it can easily become associated with metaphysics and superstition. How are those teachers supposed to teach that? So... we just need to understand that as long as we can cure diseases and save lives, that's enough, don't you think!" Although he spoke politely, in terms of medical skills alone, Bian Mu already looked down on Feng Lezhang. In his opinion, Feng Lezhang was at most a relatively successful businessman. The path of medicine was basically out of reach for the old man when he was around fifty years old.

Bian Mu didn't want to follow in Feng Lezhang's footsteps. Medicine is medicine, and business is business. As long as he strictly adhered to the most basic principles of being a decent human being, Bian Mu believed that he could keep a clear distinction between doing business and practicing medicine, and at least wouldn't go to the point of developing a split personality.

"Hmm... They never imagined that you, at such a young age, would be so deeply immersed in both the old and new TCM systems. No wonder you now lead the two cutting-edge fields of TCM medicine and pharmacy in the area. They didn't appreciate you back then... They were incredibly foolish!" Well! On the other end of the phone, Feng Lezhang, for some unknown reason, actually tried to curry favor with Bian Mu by shifting the blame onto his colleagues. This old man... there's no way to put him to words.

"It's good that she's divorced! Sister Lin isn't ugly, and her income isn't low. Finding a decent husband and starting a new family wouldn't be difficult for her, and she might even be happier! It's hard to say... Besides, her husband is completely free now, his soul is reintegrated, and his spirit is gradually returning to normal. You know, her husband and that female manager from the south are very compatible, their relationship is very close to the basic model of modern urban marriage. I found out that she's quite attractive and capable. They seem to have a child together, but I can't remember exactly. Anyway, they're separated, and they won't bother each other anymore. They can live happily ever after, which is great! There's just one thing..."

"What?! There's an even more secretive side to this?" Feng Lezhang suddenly became engrossed on the other end of the phone.

"Hehe...not at all! Sister Lin followed her all the way to the local area and did a thorough investigation. Knowing her personality, she was probably furious, and in her anger, she hastily got a divorce. As the party at fault, the man gets almost nothing, and might even lose his job! The child naturally goes to Sister Lin. In her anger, you tell me...can she tell her husband—no, we should call him her ex-husband now—all the diagnoses I gave him and how to treat him...not a single word? Her ex-husband has gone off to another place, and he definitely won't be here for at least ten years." "He's back, but what about his follow-up care?! Once the relationship is severed, the prescription will be useless! Please don't misunderstand! My intention wasn't that no one else in the world could cure her ex-husband's illness except me, but... based on your experience, you might as well speculate, how many TCM doctors of my age are there who don't reject traditional Chinese medicine and can also keep up with the latest medical advancements?! Are they easy to find? So... theoretically speaking, Sister Lin's ex-husband's future health prospects are also worrying!" At this point, Bian Mu couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Oh! It really is! Well, we can't just stand by and watch someone die! But... there's an old saying, 'A doctor doesn't knock on doors'... Sigh! We can only let nature take its course. What you said earlier is right. I'm a rather traditional person. Xiaolin's ex-husband was a man of questionable character, and strictly speaking, he has only himself to blame. You can't be blamed for it. As the old saying goes, that's his fate! He chose this path, and he has to walk it himself... Sigh! I've gotten carried away. A few friends of mine have come over. We made plans a while ago, and the car is already here. You're so busy, so I won't bother you any longer. Let's leave it at that! We should still keep in touch!"

"Please take good care of yourself. When the hospital I'm setting up is completed next year, you'll have to come and cut the ribbon!"

"What?! You've already started preparing to set up your own hospital?! That's too... Congratulations, congratulations! Where exactly is it located?" Upon hearing this, Feng Lezhang sounded extremely shocked on the other end of the phone and immediately began to inquire about the specific details.

"Hehe... I just mentioned it casually, nothing's even close to being confirmed yet! Let's talk later!" With that, Bian Mu didn't bother with formalities and hung up the phone.

Bian Mu's sudden mention of opening a specialized hospital at this time was a spur-of-the-moment decision to deliberately provoke Feng Lezhang. Without asking, within three days, everyone in the "Huikang" hospital knew about it. Putting everything else aside, the verbal discussions alone could last for more than six weeks. Just thinking about their disgusting, vulgar, and despicable behavior made Bian Mu feel somewhat better!
After hanging up the phone, Bian Mu thought about how Nurse Lin's seemingly happy little family had fallen apart, and suddenly a few doubts arose in her heart about marriage itself. Her father had worked hard for most of his life, wholeheartedly following her mother's lead. How high could his happiness index be deep down?
My mom has had a bumpy and unsatisfactory life for most of her life. In all these years, it was only on the day the branch opened that a truly bright smile appeared on her face. Have she and my dad been happy all these years?
that……

Do I have a future with Qi Yuewei?!
