The son follows in the father’s footsteps.
It’s always been a false proposition.
What kind of business is he inheriting from his father?!
If the father is diocre in his field, the son is likely not willing to follow his father’s career.
Because he doesn’t see any prospects in his father’s industry.
On the contrary,
He might see the hardships endured by the previous generation, noticing many drawbacks in that field before fully engaging with it.
And people...
Once they view sothing with prejudice,
Prejudice,
Can be hard to eliminate.
With overly tinted lenses, you’ll only see more flaws.
If the father is highly esteed in the industry,
One might not wish to follow that path when young, only recognizing later how advantageous it is.
The father’s high reputation can lead many to refer to the son rely as "so-and-so’s son."
What accomplishnts his father has,
They don’t even know.
Can "so-and-so’s son" achieve even half of his father’s success in his lifeti?
In such cases,
Children usually resist following in their father’s footsteps.
Chen Mu is the latter kind.
"But if you’re not interested in dicine, why study it for so many years?"
Chen Mu shrugged: "That’s now, but when I was young, it wasn’t a lack of interest in dicine but in traditional Chinese dicine."
"Back in university, I studied ergency internal dicine, not Chinese dicine."
The cap: "!!!"
A child from a family of Chinese dicine practitioners.
He didn’t study Chinese dicine, choosing modern dicine instead.
It’s clear he wasn’t very interested.
Chen Mu pursed his lips but didn’t elaborate further.
Initially, he focused on Western dicine in the ergency departnt.
Until...
He later encountered a patient for whom a Critical Illness Notice had already been issued to the family.
But seeing the family’s grief-stricken appearance,
Chen Mu’s heart softened.
Impulsively,
He reached out to check the patient’s pulse.
And just by feeling the pulse,
Chen Mu discovered the problem.
Then, using a seamless traditional Chinese dicine rescue plan he learned from the old master,
He was sent straight to the director’s office.
It was from that point on,
The hospital updated all sorts of procedures for Chen Mu.
Chen Mu beca the only ergency doctor at the hospital who could practice both Western and traditional Chinese dicine.
"Today’s Chinese dicine places more emphasis on inheritance."
"Many elderly Chinese dicine practitioners, if they can’t find a suitable disciple in their later years, will directly hand over so of their secret prescriptions to the state."
Listening to Chen Mu’s explanation, the cap grew more curious.
Looking at Chen Mu, he inquisitively asked: "So, is it true that so secret prescriptions held by old Chinese dicine practitioners, which even top-tier hospitals might not have, exist?"
—
"Cap! You’re the voice of my life!"
"It should be true. There’s an old Chinese dicine practitioner here who can relieve shingles. Almost every patient who goes to him hardly feels any pain afterwards."
"Is it through a plaster treatnt for shingles? We also have an old Chinese dicine practitioner who supports a family of over a dozen people with just that one formula, and all their children have houses."
"What is shingles? I feel like I haven’t heard of this illness."
"It’s herpes zoster!"
"???"
"Can Chinese dicine relieve herpes zoster?"
"Chinese dicine: I can’t cure your illness, but I can let you live healthily without much pain."
"Wow, if you really can live healthily, does it matter if you’re sick or not?"
"..."

Listening to the cap’s questions,
Chen Mu couldn’t help but glance more at this cap beside him.
This cap,
Is quite the inquisitor.
Every ti he speaks, every question, every word he asks,
Hits the nail on the head!
Chen Mu nodded and replied: "Such statents aren’t wrong, mainly because many past secret prescriptions weren’t passed down through written records."
"The older generation had so secret formulas, whether in Chinese dicine or a family of chefs."
"They relied on oral transmission until the older generation was on their last legs, only then would they pass the complete formula to the next generation."
The cap was taken aback by this: "But if sothing unexpected happens to the older generation, wouldn’t the transmission of the secret prescriptions be cut off?"
Chen Mu continued nodding and replied: "It’s like that, but don’t overlook the older generation’s firm belief in the saying ’teach your apprentice and starve yourself to death’..."
With a sigh,
Chen Mu continued: "Moreover, in those days, the situation of starving one’s master was a real possibility."
As people age,
Their labor capacity diminishes significantly.
If faced with unfilial descendants,
The older generation needed a guarantee of support in their old age.
Just like...
In today’s society,
Many parents hold tightly to family finances when faced with unfilial children.
Because that is their retirent fund.
The cap touched his chin and said: "So, in our current Chinese dicine schools, you can learn the true essence from the older generation."
Chen Mu nodded, "That’s correct, but how much you learn from Chinese dicine depends on personal comprehension."
After all...
Western dicine relies heavily on all sorts of machine-generated reports.
But a true traditional Chinese dicine practitioner doesn’t need those reports.
They can diagnose your condition just by feeling your pulse, and even understand the process of your illness.
As Chen Mu changed the acupuncture needles for the patient for the third ti,
The cap beside him suddenly showed a surge of excitent, "Dr. Chen, we’ve left the traffic jam area!"
Hearing the cap’s voice, Chen Mu also felt a burst of spirit.
Finally...
He made it through!
—
When Chen Mu returned to the school,
He had just gotten off the police car and hadn’t even stepped into the campus hospital,
When a fragrant breeze approached.
Su Bingbing almost dashed out, eagerly looking at Chen Mu: "Dr. Chen, next ti I won’t take the ti to fix my appearance. Such a terrifying event occurred, I should have been there with you."
No matter what hardships the two suspects who kidnapped Chen Mu faced,
The fact that Chen Mu was kidnapped and held hostage,
could not be ignored by Su Bingbing.
Seeing Su Bingbing’s undisguised worry,
Chen Mu felt a soft warmth in his heart.
Having such colleagues is wonderful...
"Dr. Chen, you’re really amazing for persuading the suspects to surrender!"
"Dr. Chen, there were so acupuncture techniques from your recent livestream that I didn’t understand. Could you explain them more?"
"Dr. Chen, my teacher asked to inquire if you’d be interested in giving a lecture at our school."
"You’d only need to share so theories related to ergency dicine."
These words,
Made Chen Mu’s heart tense up.
Oh no!
He felt like his father’s disguise might soon be uncovered by the people at Hai City University of Traditional dicine.
