Yang Qingyin, who had wanted to pinch Luo Ziling as a form of revenge, immediately withdrew her hand and sat up straight when she saw the military personnel enter.
Luo Ziling also saw the soldiers approaching them, but he didn’t recognize them, thus looked surprised.
"Are you Luo Ziling, Doctor Luo?" The middle-aged major general leading the group walked up to Luo Ziling and smiled as he extended his hand, "I am Lou Zhiyi."
Luo Ziling was unfamiliar with who Lou Zhiyi was, so he was briefly stunned upon hearing the introduction.
"Dean Lou, please have a seat!" Yang Qingyin was the first to react; she stood up quickly, inviting the elderly military officer to sit, "Is there something you need from us today?"
She said this while signaling to Luo Ziling.
Luo Ziling immediately understood what was happening, so he also stood up and extended his hand to the elderly officer: "So it’s Dean Lou, my apologies!"
The dean of 401 is named Lou Zhiyi, Luo Ziling had heard of him.
But he had never seen Lou Zhiyi, let alone interacted with him.
Lou Zhiyi personally coming to the coffee shop was quite surprising to him.
Lou Zhiyi chuckled heartily and sat down unceremoniously.
The colonel who accompanied him also approached Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin to greet them, then introduced himself.
The colonel named Li Zhenhua is the vice dean of 401 hospital.
is a top-grade hospital directly managed by the military. Although rank limitations mean that the dean and political officials only hold the rank of major general, their prestige is unmatched by other similarly ranked military hospital deans.
If any officer from 401 were transferred elsewhere, their rank might be elevated by one level.
Lou Zhiyi holds many titles and is a highly renowned internal medicine specialist, possessing absolute authority in his research field. Li Zhenhua is much younger but is also an authority in his domain.
However, Luo Ziling knew little about Lou Zhiyi and Li Zhenhua because he had no prior contact with them.
He occasionally visited 401 hospital, but was always in a rush, never lingering.
Since Yang Qingye was transferred here, every time Luo Ziling treated her, he left immediately afterward.
Being seated at the cafe in the hospital today was purely on a whim.
Little did he know, it would draw the attention of the hospital’s dean and vice dean.
Instantly, Luo Ziling deduced the purpose of the two deans seeking him.
As fellow medical researchers, they could surely discuss medical-related matters.
Despite his age, Lou Zhiyi maintained the straightforward nature of a soldier, and once seated, candidly explained his visit.
"I’ve long heard about your remarkable medical skills, Doctor Luo, though I haven’t had much interaction with you," Lou Zhiyi jovially said, "Upon hearing that Doctor Luo came to our hospital and didn’t leave immediately, I put aside what I was doing to come greet him. You’ve visited our hospital several times but we’ve never managed to converse, which is a real pity, so we must talk today!"
Even though he roughly guessed the reason, hearing Lou Zhiyi say this made Luo Ziling find it both amusing and puzzling.
"You flatter me, General Lou." Luo Ziling replied awkwardly, "I don’t deserve such high regard from General Lou and Dean Li. I only know some rudimentary medical skills!"
"Doctor Luo is being modest!" Lou Zhiyi waved his hand, speaking sincerely, "I’ve heard many speak highly of your medical prowess and have personally witnessed the medical miracles you’ve achieved. Miss Yang’s grandfather, Mr. Yang, was diagnosed with malignant tumors a few months ago. We had devised a treatment plan for him, yet unexpectedly, he chose to seek your treatment instead. At the time, we found it quite unbelievable and were worried it might delay his condition. Who would have thought that you’ve wrought a miracle upon him."
Upon saying this, Lou Zhiyi smiled wryly, "Mr. Yang’s recovery has been astonishingly swift. Recent check-ups show no abnormalities; all anomalous cells have vanished. Even pathological dissections reveal no abnormal cell growth, let alone malignant tumor cells. This indicates that Doctor Luo’s treatment methods are incredibly effective and advanced."
After hesitating, Lou Zhiyi continued rather gloomily, "Another esteemed leader, Mr. Chen Ruchang, has been receiving treatment at our hospital. Surgery produced decent results initially, yet his condition gradually worsened during the treatment process, and it’s now deteriorating further. Their initial pathological conditions were similar, but the subsequent treatment outcomes diverged like this, leaving us utterly perplexed. Hence, coincidentally encountering an opportunity today, we wanted to seek Doctor Luo’s advice."
"Actually, I don’t have much time to exchange ideas extensively with the two deans today!" Luo Ziling awkwardly explained, "My parents are having a wedding tomorrow, and my girlfriend and I have to host it, so I need to return and prepare thoroughly."
Hearing this, Lou Zhiyi seemed a bit disappointed.
Li Zhenhua shared the same sentiment.
Upon learning that Luo Ziling returned to treat Yang Qingye, and that after treatment, he didn’t leave immediately but dined at the hospital cafe, they hurried over.
Seeing Luo Ziling, they felt they could have a good discussion and seek his guidance. Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling declined.
How could this not disappoint them?
Even though Luo Ziling was young, they understood he had mastered the essence of traditional medicine, and evidence suggests it can produce miraculous effects. Certainly, they faced challenges, leading them to humble themselves by seeking Luo Ziling personally.
Luo Ziling further realized why the two deans of 401 Hospital frantically came to him.
Chen Ruchang was also residing here.
Facing helplessness in treating Chen’s ailment, they naturally sought other solutions.
Yang Yuanshan’s miraculous recovery would certainly intrigue and tempt them, making their visit quite understandable today.
"However, we’d like to stay here a while longer. If the two deans want to discuss something, we can chat informally for a bit!" Seeing their expression, Luo Ziling smiled, "But I definitely don’t have time for in-depth exchanges!"
Hearing this from Luo Ziling, Lou Zhiyi and Li Zhenhua’s expressions eased somewhat.
Lou Zhiyi immediately sought Luo Ziling’s advice on eliminating the tumor cells within Yang Yunlin and the principles behind it.
"I don’t know much about traditional medicine, so many things puzzle me. However, medical principles are universal, whether traditional or modern medicine, they surely follow dialectical methods." Lou Zhiyi continued straightforwardly, "We hope to understand Doctor Luo’s treatment principles and methods, and if possible, we’ll seek further guidance from you another time."
Taking a pause, he added, "Actually, we have a request. We hope Doctor Luo could assist us by collaborating to treat Mr. Chen Ruchang and help him regain his health. Would that be possible?"
