"But, you're aware of the director's condition. I'm really powerless here. To put it bluntly, he's already very old. Even if he recovers, what difference would it make?" Xiao Yifei said, feeling overwhelmed by patients like this.
"You shouldn't say such things lightly. Saving lives is what we doctors should do. No matter what, you should at least try." Director Qian insisted.
Xiao Yifei no longer said anything. Everyone knew in their hearts what the final outcome would be, but even if there was just a sliver of hope, they didn't want to give up.
From the director's mouth, Xiao Yifei learned that the elderly man was once a distinguished military man who served the country, an important figure in the central government before his retirement, now living idly at home. No wonder today's setup was so grand, with so many guards around; clearly, there was no way for Xiao Yifei to outright refuse.
