Li Min had always been puzzled why the Elderly Director frequently sent cases his way lately, asking him to consult the professors at Sanbo Hospital. Now, at last, he understood the reason, it turned out that the Elderly Director was now running a specialist outpatient clinic for back pain.
The matters that the Elderly Director hesitatingly wanted to tell him had already been repeatedly articulated before, that was, he must not reveal the truth of his receiving treatment at Sanbo Hospital, as failing to recognize an old ailment that had plagued him for over a decade would tarnish his decades-long medical reputation if word got out.
Apart from Li Min taking leave, there were other doctors taking off as well. Xia Shu said he needed to visit his hometown, the Head Nurse was arranging the department's nursing work, as she too planned to go out for a few days, supposedly to a resort within the province for leisure.
