Chapter 835: Chapter 837: Heartfelt Admiration

Xiao Yifei locked himself in his office until noon, not bothering to eat, as he continued to research how to cure this disease. In the afternoon, Song Baiyang had some free time and wanted to find his senior brother to see what he was up to.

He walked into Xiao Yifei’s office, saw the desk piled with various medical books, and curiously asked, "Senior Brother Xiao, what’s going on? Are you facing some difficult problem?"

Xiao Yifei didn’t respond, his mind was racing, completely unaware that Song Baiyang was in his office and speaking to him.

Song Baiyang, seeing his senior brother ignoring him and not even lifting his head, felt a bit awkward and quietly sat down on an empty chair nearby.

Suddenly, Xiao Yifei excitedly slapped the table and exclaimed, "Finally found it, finally found it!" The sudden slap startled Song Baiyang, who had been quietly admiring his senior brother’s serious demeanor.

"Senior Brother Xiao, what did you find that’s got you so excited?" Song Baiyang couldn’t help but ask upon seeing his senior brother’s enthusiasm.

It was only then that Xiao Yifei noticed another person in the room, causing him to jump as he asked, "Baiyang, when did you come to my office? How did I not know you were here?"

"Senior Brother Xiao, I’ve been here for a while. I was even talking to you, but you didn’t even lift your head. I didn’t realize you could be so focused when researching." Song Baiyang used to think that the descriptions in books of people who neglected sleep and meals for research were fiction, that such things couldn’t really happen.

But today he witnessed it, making him believe that such people truly exist, though he is not one of them himself. While he studies hard, he’s never been so absorbed in medicine that he neglects food and sleep. He has done so for gaming though, and watching Xiao Yifei, he felt a tinge of guilt.

It’s said that the "greats" in others’ eyes undoubtedly put in a thousand times more effort where others can’t see. Song Baiyang doesn’t deny that talent is important, but even the best talent is wasted without hard work.

Suddenly, Song Baiyang realized that Xiao Yifei probably hadn’t eaten yet, and he asked, "Senior Brother, have you had lunch?"

"No, has it reached lunchtime already?" Xiao Yifei asked.

"Lunchtime has passed long ago. The cafeteria likely doesn’t have any food left. Tell you what, I’ll go downstairs and buy you something. What would you like?" Song Baiyang asked with concern.

"Just some noodle dish is fine. I was wondering why I got hungry so early today, when I ate a big breakfast. I didn’t realize it was almost afternoon now," Xiao Yifei said, looking at his phone.

"Senior Brother, this is the first time I’ve seen someone dive so deeply into their research. I used to think stories about Newton and Einstein were fiction, but seeing you today, I truly believe it," Song Baiyang sincerely praised.

"Don’t flatter me; I’m just an ordinary doctor, nowhere near the level of Newton or those great inventors," Xiao Yifei said, feeling a bit embarrassed hearing Song Baiyang’s praise.

Xiao Yifei had roughly figured out the treatment direction and began preparing the medication. Unfortunately, one necessary ingredient was scarce, normally not available in the hospital. Acquiring it means the hospital has to apply to the Health Ministry.

Since it was nearing closing time, Xiao Yifei decided to handle it the next day. After all, he already came up with the treatment, and there was no rush for such matters. He hadn’t slept well these days, feeling exhausted now that everything was settled.

Meanwhile, Sun Xingyao wasn’t idle either. He finally learned that Xiao Yifei had come up with a formula, realizing his plans might once again fall through. He felt deeply uneasy, pondering how Xiao Yifei always manages to achieve fame and fortune. This time he couldn’t let it happen again.

He checked his watch, noting the workday was over, hurrying downstairs on realizing that Xiao Yifei’s office door was still open, slowing down to resume his self-perceived confident stride, as he approached the door.

Xiao Yifei was packing his things, ready to go home, when he looked up to see Sun Xingyao smiling at him from the doorway. Xiao Yifei felt an uncanny unease, thinking, "Why on earth are you smiling at me without reason? When we meet, shouldn’t there be some tension between us?"

"Doctor Xiao, you’re off work, right? Do you have time this evening? There’s a dinner meeting, hosted by our hospital’s medical equipment supplier, and the director said if you’re available, you should accompany me to meet some people and expand your network," Sun Xingyao said to Xiao Yifei.

Sun Xingyao was skilled at lying, doing so effortlessly. He hadn’t planned to use the director as a shield but had a sudden idea to fabricate this lie. With what seemed like the director’s invitation, Xiao Yifei certainly wouldn’t refuse, given his good relationship with the director.

"If that’s the case, then I’ll go with you," Xiao Yifei agreed without saying much, thinking that it was merely a dinner and Sun Xingyao wouldn’t act out excessively.

So, Xiao Yifei took Sun Xingyao’s car to the dinner. Sitting in the car, he once again considered buying a vehicle, as despite the morning traffic, having a car is convenient in many cases, and now he’s no longer short on money.

At the restaurant, four people were already waiting. Sun Xingyao greeted them warmly, "President Wang, it’s been a while since we last met. You’re looking spirited; have you made more money lately..."

Looking at them, Xiao Yifei perceived them as businessmen. Their keen eyes suggested precision, and when they evaluated a person, they seemed to judge them like an object. Xiao Yifei always felt something odd about Sun Xingyao, even in a lab coat, he didn’t seem like a doctor.

Today, seeing these people, he realized what was strange about Sun Xingyao. Rather than a doctor, he seemed more like a businessman, with an aura akin to a merchant. If you didn’t know him, you’d never guess he was a doctor.

Sun Xingyao chatted warmly with the four, then turned and, supporting Xiao Yifei’s shoulder, said, "This is our hospital’s deputy chief, Xiao Yifei. This is President Wang, President Zhang, President Li, and Manager Qian. They’re all involved in medical equipment, and you’ll likely have numerous business dealings in the future."

"So, I brought Deputy Chief Xiao here today to introduce him to you all. From now on, consider yourselves friends," Sun Xingyao added.

Xiao Yifei politely greeted the four before they took their seats.

These individuals had heard of Xiao Yifei before, and today they finally met him in person. His aura was more scholarly, evoking elegance in his speech. It’s comforting being around someone like Xiao Yifei; his thoughts align with his words.
