Chapter 51: Loss of an important person made me retire
Elder Su nodded in understanding. He did not have any intention to pressurize Qin Yan.
He looked at Qin Yan and found her pleasing to the eyes, so he explained to her, "I will first tell you about myself. I was initially a doctor at the People’s Hospital where Elder Tang works. I was the chief physician there. But later I developed interest in Chinese medicine and started doing research on that."
"Later I started working in Chinese medicine hospital and after a few years I finally opened my own. So you can say that I have knowledge of both western and Chinese medicine."
He continued, "A couple of months earlier, I suffered one of my most important family member’s loss so I decided to retire in this teahouse. But then Elder Tang showed me the video of you treating that woman."
Qin Yan’s eyes turned red at what she heard from Elder Su. She had died a couple of months ago. She felt extremely warm being called as family by Elder Su.
Normally, he was good to her but too strict. His personality didn’t allow him to utter sweet nothings to anybody.
But Qin Yan knew that Elder Su was like a coconut, hard from outside but soft from inside.
Her thoughts were interrupted by Elder Su, "After watching the video, I was surprised to see a young girl was using accupuncture needles to save a woman. Moreover, you did it very professionally. The needles you put on were on point and you knew what you were doing. I was fascinated to see someone as young as you to be so well versed in Chinese medicine. Not only that, but you also explained the condition of the woman to the paramedic very well."
Elder Su sighed, "This made me come back to the ground of Chinese medicine. I told Elder Tang to bring you here to ask if you have any intention of practicing medicine in future."
