Lu Qi regained his freedom and could finally breathe freely. At this mont, a shocking red mark had already appeared on his neck due to strangulation, and he gulped air to relieve the symptoms of oxygen deprivation.
Li Zhong got up from the ground, picked up Yu Li again, and helped her leave first.
Lu Qi saw Xu Chunliang confronting two big snakes, the distance between them less than half a ter. He reminded anxiously, "Xu Cong, it’s dangerous, stay away from them..." even his voice had beco a bit hoarse.
Xu Chunliang smiled calmly and said, "I have an ancestral secret snake-catching technique. Don’t worry, they can’t harm . Go and find two large sacks to take them away."
By the ti forestry bureau personnel arrived with professional snake-catching tools, the crisis here had already been resolved. Both king cobras were packed into sacks, and the bigger one weighed over forty pounds.
The professionals were sowhat incredulous, thinking how capable today’s officers were. They can climb the moon and catch turtles in the five oceans; what can’t they do?
At the request of reporters who rushed to the scene, the two officers and their trophies took photos together, earning applause for their heroic feat.
Before the support personnel arrived, Xu Chunliang had already left. He specifically instructed Lu Qi not to ntion what had just happened, let alone his na.
Fa brings trouble, and in any era, it’s never a good thing to easily expose one’s abilities. If it weren’t for the dangerous situation, he wouldn’t have intervened willingly. Lu Qi was a good person, so he did it as a favor for him.
Xu Changshan had already been preparing for the relocation. Earlier this morning, Gao Xinhua ca again to discuss the specific demolition contract with him. The second phase of the project was imminent, and the hospital couldn’t wait any longer.
To address Xu Chunliang’s staffing issue, Dean Gu specifically consulted with the health bureau leaders, going through quite a bit of hassle to get it resolved.
As for the other conditions, they had been ticulously planned before and discussed countless tis, and the plan was well-ford.
Regarding the matter of Elder Xu wanting to set up an expert clinic and personally teach his grandson, Gao Xinhua believed there was no need to rush. The hospital hiring Xu Chunliang and giving him a formal position was already exceptional, with many eyes watching and many potentially gossiping later. Even if Elder Xu wanted to do so, he should wait until the fuss died down.
Gao Xinhua also had his reasons and sincerely said, "Uncle Xu, I know you’re worried about Xu Cong, but sooner or later, you have to let go. I’m a father too. When my daughter went to university, I was very worried, as we took care of every detail for her since she was little. But going to university in the Capital City ant she had to face everything herself. I was afraid she couldn’t handle it, but it turned out she not only managed but handled things with ease."
Xu Changshan had been reflecting these past two days. The reason his grandson turned out this way was largely due to his own doting. Since his parents weren’t around since he was young, he always wanted to give him more love. But the reality proved that so missing love is irreplaceable.
"Does that an you’re going to renege on the conditions you promised ?"
Gao Xinhua laughed, "Uncle, how could such a large hospital like Changxing go back on its word?" In a lowered voice, he added, "I’m also considering your best interests. If you collaborate with the hospital to set up a traditional Chinese dicine clinic, the Huichun Hall na might not shine as brightly anymore."
"So you’re suggesting I accept the second plan, find a new location, and reopen Huichun Hall?"
Gao Xinhua said, "I didn’t say anything."
Xu Changshan had actually considered this matter a long ti ago. Although Huichun Hall wasn’t large, he had the final say here. If he chose to collaborate with Changxing Hospital to open a traditional Chinese dicine clinic, while the influence and patient source would increase, inevitably, he wouldn’t be free from the hospital’s constraints. Elder Xu had lived freely all his life, and he didn’t want to be bound by the system in old age.
Everything was for his grandson, and he could only be trusted by seeing him with his own eyes.
Gao Xinhua tested the waters, "Why not ask the child their opinion?"
At this mont, Xu Chunliang entered from outside and greeted Gao Xinhua with an "Uncle Gao."
During this half-year, Gao Xinhua often ca over and naturally t him many tis. In fact, Xu Chunliang and his daughter were in the sa cohort. Watching his daughter start her senior year, this boy was still retaking exams and failing. In Gao Xinhua’s impression, this boy was a closed book, rarely even greeted anyone, and hurried away with his head down. Unexpectedly, this ti he knew to greet. It’s probably because he knew about the job.
Perceptively, Xu Chunliang first helped refill their tea cups and then said he would go upstairs to tidy up, letting them chat first.
Xu Changshan said, "Chunliang, don’t go yet; there’s sothing I want to discuss with you."
Xu Chunliang stopped in his tracks and stood properly beside the elder.
Xu Changshan asked him to sit down, feeling very gratified. The grandson was indeed sensible. He briefly explained the hospital’s options and let the grandson choose for himself. The child is grown and has the right to make his own decisions.
After listening, Xu Chunliang understood the elder’s good intentions and smiled, "Since Grandpa wants to speak, I’ll bravely say a few words. If there are any shortcomings, I hope you won’t mind."
Gao Xinhua thought to himself that, indeed, he ca from a family of traditional Chinese dicine. Although academically weak, he was well-mannered, and his words had a literary flair.
"Huichun Hall is Grandpa’s hard work and our Xu Family’s ancestral brand; of course, it should be preserved. Grandpa, you don’t need to worry about my job. Uncle Gao will surely look after , right?"
Gao Xinhua nodded with a smile, though he felt sothing was off. He always thought this boy was reticent, but his current performance sowhat altered his previous impression.
Xu Chunliang said, "Then I won’t delay your business. Grandpa, I just went to the police station to change my na."
"What?"
This ti it was the elder’s turn to be surprised.
"I changed it to Xu Chunliang, a new na for a new life."
Hearing this, Xu Changshan felt relieved. Xu Cong was nad by his father, while the character "Chunliang" was bestowed by himself. A man cos of age at twenty, and Xu Changshan added the character for his grandson because he felt the previous na wasn’t fitting. Although his grandson was not stupid, he wasn’t exactly smart. Since talent wasn’t his strong suit, they could only hope for his pure and good character.
"Good change, good change!" praised Xu Changshan, feeling the na affird his own taste.
Since the grandson made his stance clear, Xu Changshan didn’t hesitate anymore and decided to look for a new location to reopen Huichun Hall. He also had an additional condition: once the grandson obtained his dical practitioner license, Changxing must place him in the traditional Chinese dicine departnt.
Gao Xinhua also felt relieved of a burden. Inviting a Buddha is easy, but sending one away is hard. If Elder Xu were really to be invited to the hospital, who knew how many future troubles that would entail? Although they sacrificed one staff position, it solved the Huichun Hall relocation issue.
