Chapter 906 - 908 Feeling Quite Wronged
Xiao Yifei thought to himself, you’ve already achieved so much greatness in this life, done so many enviable things, why do you still call yourself an ordinary doctor? So he said, "Mr. Hu, you’ve achieved so much in your life, how can you still call yourself an ordinary doctor?"
"I’m not as great as others say. It’s just that back then it was a series of coincidences that led to achievements that others admire. Besides, these achievements are external and can’t truly define who you are. Also, don’t envy me, I think you will soon surpass me. The student surpasses the master." Hu Jingtang said, gaining even more admiration for Xiao Yifei.
Xiao Yifei drove all the way back to the hospital, and upon returning, he didn’t forget to report to the dean. He didn’t reveal his real purpose in visiting but simply mentioned he went to see Hu Jintang and together they researched what the antidote for the virus should be.
"You shouldn’t work overtime today, go home early and rest. Your health should be the first priority." the dean said to Xiao Yifei. He had only recently learned that Xiao Yifei hadn’t been home for a long time and was spending most nights at the office. Such a dedicated doctor was certainly rare to find, but working every day like that would surely take a toll on the body.
If anything were to happen to Xiao Yifei’s health, the ones who would suffer the most would be the dean and the hospital.
Xiao Yifei responded, "It’s okay, dean, I want to use this time to hurry up and develop the viral remedy; delaying even one more day could mean a life lost!"
"Other people’s lives are lives, but isn’t your life a life too? As a doctor, why aren’t you taking care of your own health? While I’m glad you willingly work overtime every day, your health comes first. I command you to leave work early today and go home to rest properly. Start your research afresh tomorrow." the dean insisted.
Xiao Yifei thought, what has the dean consumed today, that he isn’t pleased with employees volunteering for overtime. But he felt the dean had a point; health is the cornerstone of all work, and he too felt he should take a good break.
