"Su Fan..."
At that mont, a shout ca from outside the door.
Looking out the window, one could see a man dressed in a white shirt, pot-bellied, and balding entering the courtyard.
Cousin Li Jian had returned.
Bai Man and Su Fan both tensed up.
"Quick, let go."
Bai Man rebuked Su Fan, and Su Fan realized what he was doing and hurriedly withdrew his hand.
Imdiately after, Li Jian entered the door.
"Su Fan, long ti no see, you've grown stronger..."
As soon as he entered, Li Jian gave Su Fan a bear hug.
Su Fan's grandfather was a local traditional doctor, and Li Jian had also learned a lot of dical skills from Su Fan's grandfather, so he was very enthusiastic toward Su Fan.
"Why is your face so red?"
Looking at Su Fan's flushed cheeks, Li Jian was puzzled.
Bai Man imdiately glared at Su Fan, and Su Fan tactfully said,
"Seeing my cousin, finding a relative, I am happy."
"Ah!"
Li Jian imdiately sighed and patted Su Fan's shoulder, saying,
"Kid, being at your cousin's ho is like being at your own ho. Your grandfather helped a lot, and from now on, your cousin will take good care of you. Co on, let's go have dinner."
As Bai Man was about to leave, she gave Su Fan a stern warning look, signaling him not to speak carelessly.
Soon, they arrived at a lavish, magnificent restaurant.
A sumptuous dinner ended an hour later.
"It was so delicious, I've never eaten such high-class food, all thanks to you, cousin!"
Having had his fill, Su Fan said contentedly.
"Country bumpkin..." Bai Man's eyes showed a hint of disdain.
After all, she ca from a prestigious background, not understanding the hardships of common folk.
Li Jian, who also hails from a rural background, could empathize.
"Silly boy, from now on you'll live at ho and work as my driver. I guarantee you'll eat and drink well every day."
"What?"
Bai Man was shocked.
"You're letting him live at ho and be your driver?"
If these two were together every day, her secret would definitely be exposed.
Su Fan hesitated before saying,
"Cousin, Grandpa's dying wish was for to beco a doctor and win the title at the Chinese dical Competition to glorify traditional dicine, so I intend to work at the hospital."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Bai Man burst into laughter, looking at Su Fan with disdain.
"You naive bumpkin, speaking without thinking, aren't you afraid your tongue will get you in trouble? The Chinese dical Competition is full of divine doctors, and only chief physicians are eligible to register."
"You're just an intern at the hospital now, and after you beco regular, you can be an assistant physician, then a physician, attending physician, associate chief physician, and finally chief physician to qualify for the competition."
"You naive kid, having learned a few local redies from a traveling quack, dare to spout such nonsense, it's simply laughable."
"With Western dicine prevailing and traditional Chinese dicine declining, what makes you think traditional dicine can outdo Western dicine? I think your grandfather was also a foolish old ghost out of touch with reality"
"Don't you dare slander traditional Chinese dicine or insult my grandfather."
The usually timid Su Fan suddenly stood up, fists clenched, his gaze fixed intently on Bai Man like a ferocious tiger about to attack.
Bai Man shuddered in fear, swallowed her saliva, and quickly reacted.
"You country bumpkin, how dare you talk to like that? Believe it or not, I can kick you out right now?"
"Apologize imdiately."
She scolded Su Fan harshly.
Su Fan's teeth were clenched, and he remained silent—he had to stay and enter the hospital to fulfill his grandfather's last wish, but he also wouldn't allow anyone to disparage traditional dicine or insult his grandfather.
Seeing the atmosphere was stiff, Li Jian imdiately intervened to smooth things over,
"Su Fan, what your aunt said was harsh, but it is also the truth. Take Yang City as an example, with dozens of hospitals and tens of thousands of doctors, there are only a few dozen chief physicians, which is extrely difficult to achieve, especially now that Western dicine dominates. Are you really ready to take this path?"
Su Fan replied without hesitation,
"I am willing to devote my life to fulfilling my grandfather's last wish to promote traditional dicine. It is also my dream."
"Good."
Li Jian said, relieved.
"True to our Taoshan Town, a man with vision, your cousin promises you that."
"I can't get involved in this, Bai Man, can you arrange it?"
Li Jian then looked at Bai Man.
