"Village chief, after you retire, please visit my health clinic. I'll prescribe some medication for you. Although it won't cure your illness, it can ease your suffering."
Zhao Tienan said slowly.
In fact, he felt very reluctant to let go of this old village chief.
He was not only a kind elder, but also a grassroots leader who helped nourish the land and its people.
Under his leadership, Fengshan Village had thrived, and Zhao Tienan hadn't been short on care and support from him since he arrived here to practice medicine.
Unfortunately, fate wasn't kind to him. With such a severe illness, he was destined to leave hastily without ever enjoying the fruits of his lifetime's labor.
Truth be told, though the old village chief was highly respected, his son didn't inherit his temperament and character. If Song Nan truly takes over, Fengshan Village might soon be filled with chaos and trouble.
The reputation his father built over a lifetime would be completely ruined by Song Nan.
"Alright, I understand. You go ahead and get busy."
The old village chief nodded with a smile, then staggered away, his increasingly hunched silhouette tugging at one's heartstrings.
Sometimes, Zhao Tienan wondered if he had been too harsh back then, leaving the Song Family without anyone to carry on their lineage.
But, on the other hand, Song Nan's misfortunes were entirely self-inflicted. If not for his father's sake, Zhao Tienan might have ruined Song Nan long ago.
That night, Zhao Tienan returned to the health clinic.
After a simple meal, he carried his medicine box and left.
"Zhao, where are you heading? You just got back, and you're already off to work?"
Cao Lei blinked her bright and charming eyes, asking in a slightly naive tone.
"Mm, there's a patient who needs a home visit. Stay home tonight. If you're scared, you can spend the night at Xie Xin's place."
Zhao Tienan replied casually but suddenly felt inexplicably guilty, as if he were sneaking off for some illicit affair.
"Then I'll let Xie Xin come here to accompany me. Her conditions are really too harsh; I can't get used to staying there..."
Xie Xin pouted, quickly grabbing her phone to call her best friend.
Though the Mu Family provided meals and accommodation, it was still rural, with very limited lodging conditions—not only remote but rudimentary, with wilderness out back and the sound of wolves at night.
Born timid, Cao Lei dared not spend the night at Xie Xin's place.
"Alright, you both discuss and, if there's anything, just call me."
Zhao Tienan nodded his head casually, then stepped outside with his medicine box.
"Li Wanqing, it's me. I've come specifically to treat your illness. Open up."
Within minutes, Zhao Tienan knocked on Li Wanqing's door, and at this moment, his emotions surged wildly like waves.
He was on the verge of savoring the charm of the Fengshan Village's most elegant goddess. How could young and impetuous Zhao Tienan not be excited? His heart even began to race uncontrollably.
"Doctor Zhao, good evening. Look, did I prepare well enough?"
A few minutes later, the door slowly opened.
Then, a figure appeared that made Zhao Tienan gasp, nearly causing him to spurt a nosebleed...
