Chapter 729: Chapter 337: Boss Ye’s Younger Sister, Passed Down Through Generations
Those kids with connections often find good jobs after graduation.
And they don’t have to do very complicated work; their monthly salary is several times higher than that of ordinary people. If they’re capable, they advance even quicker, like a fish in water, climbing up the ranks rapidly.
The competition in Beijing is extremely fierce, and those who stay are the cream of the crop.
Luo Binggang’s importance to the entire family is self-evident.
Taking the train rarely results in accidents.
Although airplane accidents are rare, when they do happen, they generally result in air disasters with very low survival rates.
When not in a hurry, taking the high-speed train is indeed a good choice.
And the speed of the high-speed train is not slow.
"You’re funny! When roughly will you arrive tomorrow? I’ll come to pick you up!"
Li Jingsheng sent a message back.
Luo Binggang is a guest, and he counts as the host here, so he should do his part as a host.
"No need, no need, I’ll just take a cab to People’s Hospital to find Old Wang."
"Alright then, after you’re settled, I’ll come to visit you."
Li Jingsheng doesn’t have a car, and with his daily busyness like a spinning top, he didn’t insist.
After chatting a bit, he was about to enter the station to board the train.
So they stopped chatting.
It’s still unknown how the two professors plan to conduct the project.
Li Jingsheng will surely have to cooperate at that time, or it would be too rude.
"Who is it?"
Ou Qinglan asked curiously.
"A cardiovascular professor from Beijing, named Luo. He wants to collaborate with me on a medical research project."
"That’s impressive, you’re involved in such a high-level thing. Aren’t you researching orthopedics? Now you’re looking into cardiovascular diseases, isn’t that spreading yourself too thin?"
"This is indeed something I need to consider. A person has limited energy and time, and I’m already trying to control my specialized field. For now, orthopedic surgery, respiratory medicine, and gastroenterology are the three major ones! Then, I’ll look into cardiovascular medicine depending on the situation, especially since I’ve been frequently assisting Director Zhang in cardiothoracic surgeries lately, which has given me some foundation.
Cardiovascular disease is also a key research area in modern medicine, and by integrating internal and external skills, maybe I can achieve some accomplishments in this field."
Li Jingsheng had long planned his direction in medical development.
Respiratory and gastroenterology are the foundation of the clinic.
Because these types of patients are the most common.
So he must delve deep and continuously enhance his medical skills in these two areas.
Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine is essential to improve.
Then there’s surgery skills.
Now his surgical skills have basically progressed to the expert level; beyond that, it’s about being an expert among experts. So next, he can focus his energy and life values on the few most important diagnostic medical skills.
Then comes the doctor’s proficiency level, which is the most critical.
This is the foundation of all medical skills, requiring continuous advancement.
"Is Teacher Li here?"
At this moment, a tomboy walked in, wearing jeans, a white hoodie, and sneakers, looking full of youthful spirit.
Ou Qinglan, like a startled rabbit, quickly escaped from Li Jingsheng’s embrace.
Her pretty face involuntarily turned red.
Neither of them expected someone to come in at this time.
"It’s Ye Hui, come in and sit!"
Li Jingsheng had asked her to come find him during the day.
Unexpectedly, she came at this time.
"Um... it seems like my timing is off. How about I come back tomorrow?"
Ye Hui naturally saw the teacher and the missus cuddling together.
"You’re just a kid; don’t overthink. Qinglan, sit here for a while, I’ll take her to the office for a chat."
"Okay, you two go ahead!"
Ou Qinglan didn’t dare to look up at anyone.
Her pretty face is still red.
"Be careful, don’t hurt yourself."
Li Jingsheng couldn’t help but find it funny seeing this girl so clumsy.
Their relationship is already public, what’s wrong with a little cuddle in private occasion?
Her thoughts are just conservative.
He took Ye Hui to the empty office.
Ye Hui curiously examined the interior furnishings.
"Have you had dinner?"
"Yes, ate at my sister’s place."
"You have a sister? That’s quite fortunate!"
Li Jingsheng is an only child himself, and he envies families with brothers and sisters.
"My sister lives in the Old Street of South City, quite close to you actually. You even know her."
"Oh, really? What’s her name?"
Li Jingsheng felt even more surprised.
Ye Hui usually only consults him on medical issues and never talks about personal matters.
He assumed she was more of a tomboy with possibly negligent parenting.
Didn’t expect she has a sister.
"Ye Luan!"
"Huh... really? Your sister is Ye Luan? The Boss Ye from Jinkui Clinic?"
Li Jingsheng didn’t expect the world to be so small.
Ye Hui was nothing like Boss Ye.
She had a complete tomboy personality, cheerful, lively, and with a bit of a heroic air.
Boss Ye, on the other hand, was elegant, poised, not very talkative but extremely decisive.
In the chaotic area of Old Street of South City, she managed to establish herself firmly with just her status as a woman.
Neither Boss Zhao nor any other pharmacy owners dared to mess around at Jinkui Clinic.
"I couldn’t just randomly acknowledge someone as my sister, could I? When Director Hua from the Second Hospital came to our school recruiting, it was my sister who told me that you have a great character and remarkable medical skills, so I applied. I joined the Orthopedics Department of the Second Hospital because I wanted to follow you. Luckily, I was kept on by you in the end."
Ye Hui smiled as she said this.
This really caught Li Jingsheng off guard; he never thought that Ye Hui was Boss Ye’s sister.
"Your sister never mentioned this to me either!"
"She intentionally didn’t say anything. She wanted me to earn your respect through my own efforts, and then learn the skills myself. I don’t care for taking shortcuts, I just want to earn your respect with my own abilities and performance, then prove myself to my father and grandfather."
Her family was a renowned family of TCM, something Li Jingsheng had known for a long time.
Boss Ye could remain unbothered in Old Street of South City, even Station Chief Qiao treated her with respect, all because of her father’s reputation.
Great TCM practitioners, especially those from established families, often have significant standing.
They often hold some official positions.
Moreover, in large hospitals, those top Western medicine experts, many of them greatly admire TCM.
And there’s an extremely interesting phenomenon: the more skilled the Western doctors in China are, the more obsessed they become with TCM as they progress, much like top scientists who end up fascinated by mysticism.
Ordinary people don’t reach that level, so they can’t understand.
They can only guess at most.
"This Boss Ye, next time I’ll definitely have a word with her," Li Jingsheng murmured. "You’ve been learning bone setting techniques with me for three months now. You should have a general understanding and knowledge of this medical skill. Are you determined to keep pursuing this field?"
Li Jingsheng stared into her eyes.
"I’ve thought it through a long time ago. If I initially wanted to learn bone setting techniques from you just to prove myself, now studying bone setting has become a hobby. It’s even higher than that, as I want to make it my lifelong career."
She usually spoke somewhat casually.
Even playfully.
But now, her expression was solemn.
"Have you thought about the fact that while learning bone setting techniques can provide a decent income, it’s possible you might never advance beyond a mid-level position in your entire life? In the medical, teaching, and research fields, bone setting is only one part, just representing the medical aspect."
Li Jingsheng was about to teach her more advanced bone setting techniques.
But first, he wanted to understand her true thoughts.
"I don’t care about those hollow titles! My family is a medical family, and one of our ancestral teachings is not to be pretentious. Do I look like someone who chases after empty titles?"
"Before I teach you the essence of bone setting techniques, I need you to agree to a few things."
Li Jingsheng looked at her as he spoke.
"Please tell me."
"First, you cannot randomly pass on bone setting techniques to others. It can only be taught to those with reliable character and high medical ethics. Second, you must not use this medical skill to harm patients and only earn money that is rightfully yours. Third, my medical teachings come from Doctor Xu; in strict terms, he is your master’s master. Whenever you meet him, you must show respect."
In TCM traditions, the lineage of the master is important.
In other TCM subjects, there are divisions into different schools.
Back in the days when TCM was flourishing, even in the field of bone setting, there were multiple families and schools. Unfortunately, like the lost ancient martial arts, many of these medical skills eventually became lost for various reasons, including being unduly conservative.
This is a very regrettable thing.
"I can agree to all three conditions, and I will always stick to them," she said solemnly after hearing him out.
"Alright, come over and feel my wrist!"
Li Jingsheng instructed her.
"This... doesn’t seem right?" Ye Hui blushed as she heard this.
"What on earth are you thinking? I want you to feel my wrist joint," Li Jingsheng scolded with a glare.
She still worried that Li Jingsheng wanted to take advantage of her, but she proceeded to feel his wrist joint.
"Pay close attention to the changes in the bones, especially the wrist bones’ positions."
Li Jingsheng’s teaching methods were somewhat different from Doctor Xu’s.
Because his current bone setting techniques had surpassed Doctor Xu’s, his teaching appeared more flexible and adaptable.
He chose whichever method allowed the student to understand more easily.
The best teachers adapt to their students’ needs.
"I can’t feel any change!"
Ye Hui was gripping his wrist joint.
"Focus, try to find my right scaphoid."
Li Jingsheng looked serious.
She couldn’t find it for a long time, which made Li Jingsheng a bit displeased.
"Now just pretend I’m one of your patients. Don’t think about gender, just focus. This isn’t something others can teach you; otherwise, I would’ve asked Dr. Ou to come and teach you."
Li Jingsheng didn’t expect her to have such conservative thoughts, given her normally easygoing and tomboyish personality.
"Is it here?"
She pressed on one of the wrist bones with her finger.
"Now find my lunate bone."
Li Jingsheng felt she had some talent, and once she settled down, she quickly found the correct position of the scaphoid bone.
