The one to halt Director Bai was none other than Director Zhou.
At this moment, Director Zhou Xiao of the Provincial Health Department, looked grim as he walked out from his residence.
Director Zhou Xiao was known to be relatively incorruptible as an official and amiable in his interactions. However, in recent days, his father had been afflicted with a mysterious illness, causing much worry for this filial son. It had significantly affected his temperament and patience.
Watching his father waste away day by day, Zhou Xiao lost his appetite, and leveraged every connection at his disposal to seek treatment for his father. But there had been no good progress.
Today, Zhou Xiao was in a very bad mood, although Director Bai, his trusted subordinate, had brought him another reputed doctor. However, after countless disappointments, Zhou Xiao had lost all faith in so-called renowned doctors.
