Chapter 1033 In Memoriam of Elder Song
Song Hanzhang's straightened shoulders immediately relaxed.
"It's not that I'm good, it's Shen Lu."
Song Hanzhang's eyes unexpectedly reddened.
He's been putting on a brave face these past few days; everyone can tell.
Song Hanzhang was almost entirely trained by Old Master Song.
The person who was most heartbroken by the old man's accident was him.
He felt extremely guilty because his grandfather had an accident before he had even completed his apprenticeship.
If he had tried a little harder and been a little smarter, wouldn't he have been able to use the Song's Thirteen Needles technique without any problems?
But in the past few days, Shen Lu has actually thoroughly grasped the essence of the Song Family Thirteen Needles and is even teaching him instead.
Although Shen Lu was a few years younger than Song Hanzhang and had studied medicine for a few years less, her comprehension ability was stronger.
Song Hanzhang praised Shen Lu: "She guided me. If it weren't for Shen Lu, I wouldn't have made progress in just a few days."
In fact, Song Hanzhang suspected that Shen Lu could cure Ms. Jiang even without him.
In front of Director Li, Song Hanzhang asked Shen Lu.
Shen Lu didn't shy away from the question: "It's possible, but it certainly won't be as fast as our cooperation."
“Wang Weimin is an arrogant politician who has also been labeled a traitor. It’s very difficult for us to find out who his accomplices are.”
"So we still need to wake Ms. Jiang up as soon as possible. Only with her around can we ensure that Wang Weimin is brought to justice as quickly as possible."
As for those who have connections with Wang Weimin, whether they should be trembling with fear or what, Shen Lu didn't really care.
After several busy days, Shen Lu could finally go home, change her clothes, and get a good night's sleep.
"I'll come over first thing tomorrow morning, is that alright?" Shen Lu asked Director Li.
Director Li waved his hand: "Go back and get some rest. Someone will be on night duty tonight."
Shen Lu looked at Song Hanzhang.
She went home. Should Song Hanzhang stay or go back home?
Song Hanzhang smiled wryly: "I also have to go back."
We've been holding out for three days now; even the toughest person needs a breather.
Moreover, with the old man's accident, the Song family has probably already set up a mourning hall. If he doesn't go home soon, his family will start to complain.
"Then I'll leave the rest to Director Li." Shen Lu looked at Director Li.
This person should have been prepared, right? Could something have happened to her after she and Song Hanzhang left?
Director Li glared at her. This girl is incredibly cunning.
"Don't worry, we've already arranged for someone to help."
These two kids were essentially forced into this situation.
They weren't originally needed to take over so early, but who knew Song Yingxiang would have an accident?
He and Song Yingxiang were equally adept; one was invincible in surgery, and the other was unparalleled in acupuncture.
Both of them had a lot of face in front of the leaders.
Therefore, the two of them provided medical care for all the leaders.
But now that Lao Song is in trouble, his successor is still unclear.
It's not that there aren't other traditional Chinese medicine doctors at the same level as Lao Song.
But compared to Lao Song, it's always a bit lacking.
Old Song's most impressive skill was the Song Family Thirteen Needles.
Therefore, someone has to take over in the future.
Is Song Hanzhang suitable?
No, he needs more experience.
We can't use the leaders as practice subjects, can we?
Mr. Song's eldest disciple is also in the medical team he leads.
He can temporarily take over Old Master Song's position.
It all depends on when Song Hanzhang matures.
Minister Chu of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs still likes Shen Lu very much.
The young man is bold, meticulous, and outspoken.
The key is that the medical skills are truly excellent.
People lamented that without Old Song, they wouldn't dare to get sick anymore.
Minor illnesses are fine, but I'm afraid to go to the hospital for serious illnesses.
Especially the elderly, whose thinking has not kept up with the pace of Western medicine, always feel that surgery is not as good as traditional Chinese medicine.
Is it a good thing to have this cut off and that cut off, like a pig being gutted?
Traditional Chinese medicine is different; it can treat illnesses while preserving the body's health.
Some of the leaders' family members were also very reluctant to part with Mr. Song.
In the past, if any of the children in the family felt unwell, Old Song would press on their skin a few times and they would feel better.
Especially when the baby is small, if they have gas, a cold, or a fever, Old Song can solve the problem very easily.
These children don't need medicine or injections, so they really like Mr. Song.
The wives in the family also like it.
Because we don't want the child to suffer.
The leaders live in the same area, and almost every family there has a child.
Therefore, a great many people came to mourn Mr. Song.
Shen Lu also came after going home to freshen up.
She arrived at 6 p.m.
After the memorial service, they were asked to stay for dinner.
Song Hanzhang was too busy to receive Shen Lu.
Song Kezhen knelt in the mourning hall. When she heard that Shen Lu had arrived, she ran out to greet her.
"Why did you come?"
Song Hanzhang and Shen Lu were on a classified mission, so they didn't tell their families about their collaboration in saving Ms. Jiang's life at Unit 301.
The Song family patriarch frequently visited Room 301, and although the Song family members guessed it, they remained silent.
They would not inform Song Kezhen either.
Shen Lu would never openly say, "Your grandfather had an accident, and your cousin and I are taking his place to save someone's life."
She could only apologize to Song Kezhen: "I went back to my hometown before I rushed back."
Upon hearing this, Song Kezhen knew she couldn't blame them.
She was in a bad mood these past few days because of her grandfather's accident, and when she saw Shen Lu, she unconsciously raised her voice a little.
It's not that I blame her, it's that I have nowhere to vent my grievances.
Song Kezhen has many friends. Although she is aloof, she is a smart person.
But why didn't he show his emotions in front of his other friends, unlike in front of Shen Lu?
That's because Shen Lu is genuine with her.
Moreover, she actively sought out this friend.
She's just different from everyone else.
Song Kezhen is two years older than Shen Lu, but emotionally she is more dependent on Shen Lu.
Shen Lu?
She touched her nose, feeling somewhat bewildered.
My relationship with Senior Song might be a little better than that of ordinary friends, but we definitely weren't best friends.
But now Song Kezhen is clearly confiding in her as if she were a close friend.
“My grandfather passed away, and suddenly half of the friends around me were gone.”
“You didn’t come, and you didn’t reply to my messages. I thought you were like the others.”
Song Kezhen truly felt wronged.
Shen Lu patted her shoulder: "Don't think too much. Maybe many people don't know how to comfort you."
"Besides, those who left can't really be called friends, can they?"
Song Kezhen burst into laughter through her tears: "You're right, how can someone who leaves be considered a friend?"
"But why aren't you replying to my messages?"
Shen Lu had deliberately glossed over her own situation, but she hadn't expected Song Kezhen to bring it up again.
Song Kezhen was truly obsessed with her.
"I'm really busy. My older sister back in my hometown also had an accident a couple of days ago."
"She was driven to the point of jumping off a building by her blind date, and she almost died."
"Luckily, I survived, the rescue was timely, and I was there too, which is why I was pulled back from the brink of death."
Shen Lu didn't boast, but saying this made it easier for Song Kezhen to believe that she didn't intentionally not reply to the messages.
