Soon, Li Dafu was deeply absorbed in the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Handbook.

He stood there for half an hour, reading the entire handbook in one go.

"Director Chen, are you sure you want to distribute these to us?"

After the shock, Li Dafu asked, his voice trembling.

His voice trembled only because he was too excited.

Because the TCM Handbook that Director Chen had brought out was too amazing, too shocking.

It not only summarized all the essence of TCM over thousands of years, but also mentioned some knowledge and techniques that were decades, no, even hundreds of years ahead of this era!

After reading it, Li Dafu instantly felt enlightened. He originally thought that his TCM attainments would be limited in this lifetime, but after reading Chen Xiao's TCM Handbook, he felt that his understanding of TCM had directly reached a new level.

If he could study it carefully for a year or two, his TCM level would be at least four or five times stronger than it is now.

Hearing Li Dafu's question, Chen Xiao smiled faintly, "I created this TCM Handbook for you to read. If I don't distribute it, wouldn't I have created it for nothing?"

"No, Director Chen, you know I didn't mean that… It's just that the content of this TCM Handbook is too shocking. If it were published, it could even win various medical awards internationally. Won't you reconsider?"

Li Dafu asked.

Chen Xiao smiled disdainfully, "TCM is for treating diseases, not for winning awards. Alright, it's getting late, hurry up and get it done before you get off work. The sooner you distribute it, the better. Don't forget, one day of the seven days has already passed, leaving only six days."

Hearing these words, Li Dafu was in awe of Chen Xiao, and his respect increased to a new level.

"Yes, yes, I'll go now!"

Li Dafu went to work happily. Although he was over fifty years old, he was as energetic as a young man in his twenties.

And Chen Xiao's creation of this TCM Handbook meant that he had completed three-quarters of the task.

With the three old doctors and Chu Luo in the TCM department, plus this TCM Handbook, it would soon become the trump card specialty of Jiangcheng Hospital.

And when that time came, it would be when Chen Xiao successfully retired.

Chen Xiao leaned back in his chair with his hands behind his head, and crossed his legs leisurely.

Just as he was relaxing, the phone suddenly rang. Chen Xiao wondered who it was, calling at such an inopportune time!

He took a closer look and quickly answered. It turned out to be Li Ziqing.

The two of them would unfailingly talk on the phone every night, but today Li Ziqing called in the afternoon. Could something have happened?

"Hey, why are you calling at this time today?"

As soon as the phone was connected, Chen Xiao asked.

Li Ziqing said, "Am I only allowed to call you at night? What's wrong, am I interrupting something good, Director Chen?"

Chen Xiao chuckled, "There's nothing good going on. I just finished work and was about to take a nap."

"Okay, then it seems I'm really disturbing your good time. You go to sleep, I'll hang up!"

Li Ziqing's voice was full of resentment.

Chen Xiao hurriedly said, "Don't hang up, you have something to tell me, right?"

"Hmph… I'm asking you, did you miss me?"

Li Ziqing snorted coquettishly and asked.

"What do you think…"

Chen Xiao asked back.

"I want you to say it!"

"I missed you!"

"Hehe, you're sensible. Since you missed me, then come see me!"

Li Ziqing let out a series of娇笑 (jiao xiao, charming laughter).

Chen Xiao said in surprise, "Ah? Where are you?"

"I'm just at the entrance of the hospital. I'll give you three minutes. If you don't come, it means you're lying to me…"

Li Ziqing was halfway through her sentence when a series of beeps suddenly came from the other end of the phone. It turned out that Chen Xiao had hung up.

And in less than two minutes, Chen Xiao had already appeared in front of her.

As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder.

And between Chen Xiao and Li Ziqing, it couldn't be said to be a short separation, they had been telephone lovers for almost a month.

This meeting could be described as a clash of thunder and lightning, and the two almost did it on the street…

"Get in my car!"

Li Ziqing said.

Chen Xiao thought about it, and thought that a car was also a good idea!

However, what happened after getting in the car was a little different from what Chen Xiao had imagined.

Li Ziqing looked serious and asked Chen Xiao, "When I wasn't around, have you been secretly eating anything lately?"

"Of course not!"

Chen Xiao's answer was firm, after all, he really hadn't been secretly eating 'lately'.

"Really? I don't believe it."

Then, Li Ziqing started the car.

Chen Xiao asked, "Where are we going?"

"To my place…"

Li Ziqing's pretty face blushed.

After finally getting to the place, as soon as they entered the apartment, Chen Xiao couldn't hold back any longer and pounced on Li Ziqing like a hungry tiger.

Thunder struck the earth, Chen Xiao was the thunder, and Li Ziqing was the earth fire. The earth fire responded enthusiastically to the thunder.

…

"No more, no more, I really can't anymore…"

Li Ziqing gasped for breath, but Chen Xiao was still not satisfied…

Seeing him like this, Li Ziqing frowned her delicate nose and complained娇声 (jiao sheng, in a coquettish voice), "I've been on a business trip for so long, I'm so tired, and you don't even know how to care for me, and… hmph, I'm ignoring you!"

Chen Xiao hugged Li Ziqing and said softly, "Is it that hard? If it's so hard, then don't do it. Anyway, we can't even spend all the money we have in eight lifetimes!"

Li Ziqing chuckled, "If it was impossible to spend it all in eight lifetimes before, then now it's impossible to spend it all in eighteen lifetimes…"
