As Wu Potian's mentor, despite his slower understanding of medical knowledge compared to other students, his dedication to medical knowledge was the most diligent among all the students Qiu Jinbo had taught. He firmly believed that with hard work, even an iron rod could be ground into a needle! If Wu Potian could maintain this positive learning attitude, he would surely achieve something in the future.
Therefore, when the school decided to expel Wu Potian, Qiu Jinbo repeatedly pleaded with the school to give Wu Potian another chance. However, due to his low status and limited influence, coupled with Wu Potian's repeated failures, he ultimately failed to save Wu Potian.
Even though Wu Potian was expelled from the school, Qiu Jinbo still held him in high regard. He believed that one day Wu Potian would definitely shed the label of being a failure. This was why he approached Zhou Zetao, asking him to help arrange a job for Wu Potian at the hospital, hoping that the hospital environment would motivate Wu Potian to study.
At this moment, seeing Zhou Zetao's eyes flicker, Qiu Jinbo became even more convinced of his suspicions. He immediately rebutted Zhou Zetao, "Old Zhou! If Potian were not a temporary worker, I might believe you. But precisely because he is a temporary worker, he can be used as a scapegoat, which makes me even more convinced that your hospital wants to make Potian take the blame. So I can't help you with this."
Seeing Qiu Jinbo refuse to help, Zhou Zetao immediately became anxious and quickly explained, "Old Qiu! I'm not lying to you. Xiao Wu really saved the father of Director Zhang, and he diagnosed the old man's condition through pulse diagnosis. He even said he could treat the old man's illness. However, because Director Zhang's sister didn't believe Xiao Wu and thought he was insulting the deceased, she slapped him."
"After Xiao Wu left, the hospital's experts conducted a consultation for the old man and found that his condition was extremely critical. Currently, none of the experts in the hospital have a foolproof plan. Dean Liu was summoned by the Health Bureau's investigation team, and because of Xiao Wu's words before he left, Director Zhang, perhaps thinking it was worth a try, wanted to ask Xiao Wu to see his father. But no matter what conditions the hospital offered, Xiao Wu refused to go back to the hospital."
"Since the hospital knew that I was the one who recruited Xiao Wu, they gave me a strict order. If I can't get Xiao Wu back to the hospital, they will revoke my position as the head of the logistics department. Old Qiu! I agreed to let Xiao Wu work at the hospital because of our long-standing friendship. Now that the hospital leadership is making trouble for me over this, you can't just stand by and watch!"
Qiu Jinbo looked at Zhou Zetao with a serious expression. Seeing that Zhou Zetao's eyes did not flicker as they had before, he began to believe Zhou Zetao's words. However, he did not immediately agree to Zhou Zetao's request. Instead, he asked, "Old Zhou! What is the patient's condition? Why are the hospital's experts at a loss?"
"I'm not sure about the specific condition, but I heard that the patient's brain was once injured. However, Xiao Wu diagnosed it just by taking the patient's pulse, which is why Director Zhang believes that Xiao Wu can treat his father's illness." Seeing that Qiu Jinbo did not refuse again, Zhou Zetao secretly rejoiced and selectively described the patient's condition to Qiu Jinbo.
The brain is the most complex part of the human body, and all diseases related to the brain are among the most complex in the medical field. Qiu Jinbo could understand why the hospital's experts were at a loss, but Wu Potian was his student. Even if Wu Potian had started to master medical skills, Qiu Jinbo absolutely did not believe that Wu Potian could treat such a condition.
"Old Zhou! Tell me the truth, did Potian really diagnose the patient's condition just by taking his pulse and say he could treat the patient's illness?" Because of this judgment, Qiu Jinbo again doubted Zhou Zetao's words and questioned him very seriously.
Hearing Qiu Jinbo's doubt, Zhou Zetao knew that Qiu Jinbo still had suspicions. However, he was not worried because if Qiu Jinbo was willing to see Wu Potian, everything would become clear. At this moment, he answered Qiu Jinbo seriously, "Old Qiu! Do you think I'm lying to you? If that's the case, come with me to see Wu Potian. You can ask him in person, and you'll know the truth."
Qiu Jinbo held Wu Potian in high regard and naturally hoped that Wu Potian would one day achieve his dreams. Therefore, when he heard Zhou Zetao's description, he was extremely eager to verify the situation.
At this moment, Qiu Jinbo looked at his watch and said to Zhou Zetao, "Old Zhou! Since that's the case, I'll go with you to see Potian. If it's true as you say, I'll help you persuade him, but everything must be based on Potian's willingness."
Hearing Qiu Jinbo's words, Zhou Zetao was undoubtedly very excited. He rubbed his hands together and said happily, "Old Qiu! As long as you're willing to persuade Xiao Wu, I believe he will agree. After all, Xiao Wu is your student, and you've given him a lot of help in Yanjing over the years. I believe that if you're willing to help me, you can definitely get Xiao Wu to agree."
After obtaining the Azure Dragon, Wu Potian was eager to practice the Body Strengthening Technique, digest the medical knowledge he had already mastered, and gain more clinical experience. After Zhang Qiming and the others left, Wu Potian immediately entered the study space and began practicing the Body Strengthening Technique under the guidance of Xiong Baitian.
However, to Wu Potian's frustration, not long after he entered the study space, there was another knock on the door, disrupting his concentration. Before he even opened the door, he grumbled, "I already said I won't go back to the hospital. Why are you still pestering me? Can't you leave me alone?"
"Potian! Open the door! It's me!" As soon as Wu Potian's complaint ended, a familiar and warm voice came from outside the door, belonging to Qiu Jinbo.
Hearing Qiu Jinbo's voice, Wu Potian was clearly surprised. He subconsciously opened the door and said, "Teacher! Why are you here? I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you."
Before Wu Potian could finish speaking, he saw Zhou Zetao standing behind Qiu Jinbo and was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Zhou Zetao to go to such lengths to persuade him, even bringing his mentor. Although he was somewhat annoyed by Zhou Zetao's actions, he still respectfully invited Qiu Jinbo in, "Teacher! Please come in."
Qiu Jinbo carefully observed Wu Potian, who had changed significantly after more than half a year. He now exuded confidence, unlike the dejected state he was in when he was expelled. Qiu Jinbo's face showed satisfaction as he nodded and praised, "Good! Good! It seems you've moved on from the shadow of your expulsion."
The period when Wu Potian was expelled from the school was the darkest time of his twenty-one years. If it weren't for Professor Qiu's encouragement, Wu Potian didn't know how he would have gotten through it. Therefore, he was filled with gratitude towards Professor Qiu. When Professor Qiu entered the room, Wu Potian quickly cleared a chair and invited him to sit, "Teacher! Please sit down!"
Qiu Jinbo sat down in front of Wu Potian, looking at him with a kind expression. He smiled and asked, "Potian! I heard from Old Zhou that you saved a patient who was declared dead this morning. Is that true?"
Hearing Qiu Jinbo's words, Wu Potian nodded subconsciously and replied, "Teacher! That's right. This morning, when I went to work, the emergency room notified me that a deceased patient was to be sent to the morgue. When I was preparing to send the deceased to the morgue, I found that the patient was not actually dead. I performed routine resuscitation, and in the end, I successfully saved the patient."
