Chapter 167: Chapter 168 Boat Ticket (4)
Translator: 549690339
Even though it is often said that “doctors are like parents with a heart of gold” and are indeed angels in white, it is still truly noble for someone to give up their job in the city to provide their services in the countryside. After all, if Zhao Zihao truly wanted to make money, his medical skills would certainly allow him to earn more by becoming an appointment-based doctor in any private hospital in Europe. His willingness to return surely means he holds a deep affection for China.
“Miss Lu, you don’t seem to be in a very good mood. Have you encountered any difficulties?” Zhao Zihao asked, noticing her furrowed brow and low spirits. He quickly added, smiling, “Of course, if you’re not comfortable answering, you can pretend I didn’t ask.”
Lu Weixi shook her head, “No, it’s fine. It’s just…” She paused, choosing to rephrase her question, “Dr. Zhao, considering your qualifications, wouldn’t you have earned more and lived comfortably if you had stayed in Europe? To my knowledge, doctors in China may be the most hardworking in the world due to the large population and frequent medical disputes.”
Zhao Zihao laughed lightly, “Indeed, but the large population also provides doctors with numerous clinical opportunities. In Europe and America, a doctor might only see ten patients a day, but here it exceeds ten patients per hour. Furthermore, in recent years, China’s medical conditions have significantly improved. As someone with a clinical focus, I naturally hope for more practical experience.”
With a spirited smile, he continued, “Regarding money, my parents are well-off, and I have other siblings to take care of them. I don’t need to provide for them. I don’t have any other relatives, so you could say that I’m fine as long as my needs are met. As a young person, does earning more or less truly matter? How could it seem wasteful when chasing your dreams?”
Zhao Zihao’s last words hit a nerve with Lu Weixi, who quickly looked up and asked, “Dr. Zhao, purely hypothetically, what if you were given an opportunity that requires a lot of money? You don’t know what you could gain from the opportunity, but you really want to participate. What would you do?”
Zhao Zihao considered for a moment before answering calmly, “If it were me, the opportunity would have to be extremely significant. As long as my adoptive parents could still maintain their basic lifestyle, other considerations would not matter to me. I’m still young, and I have endless possibilities. Even if I were to lose a fortune, it could always be earned back.”
Without expressing any opinions of her own, Lu Weixi looked up at the peak of the hospital’s tower for a long while, squinting her eyes. She finally turned back several moments later, “Dr. Zhao, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Zhao Zihao lifted his arm to check his watch, “I have a pre-operation meeting to attend. I won’t hold you back from visiting your mother. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Thank you.” Lu Weixi nodded, watching Zhao Zihao’s retreating figure. She even found it amusing, wondering why she originally assumed that he Closer held ulterior motives? He was naturally just a kind-hearted and gentle individual. It must have been her who misjudged him.
Even though her conversation with Zhao Zihao strengthened her resolution to buy the ship ticket, it still pained her to part with two hundred thousand, no, at least one hundred thousand. It was indeed a large sum of money. To part with it now would undoubtedly hurt.
Just as she began worrying about the loss, an opportunity to earn money presented itself. She hadn’t even driven out of the hospital before she received a call from Xiaochen, “Lu, please get to the office quickly. There are two tough customers here, and they’re specifically asking for you!”
