Song Rui smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, I really didn't mean to insult your aged Maotai! Ruofei made a kind of wine some time ago called Zui Ba Xian. The fragrance, the taste … how do I put it? It's unforgettable after drinking it once! This wine is already quite famous in the south. Maybe it hasn't spread to the north of the Yellow River yet! "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "I saw it in the Sanshan office yesterday. They should have sent it directly from the Southeast Province."
"Really? Then I have to find time to go to the Rongcheng Hotel to drink two bottles of wine! "Song Rui said in surprise.
The conversation between Xia Ruofei and Song Rui made Zhao Cheng even more interested in Zui Ba Xian. He couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Xia, this Zui Ba Xian wine … Hehe … Can you get two bottles for me to try?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "General Zhao, I didn't bring Zui Ba Xian with me when I came to the capital this time. Wait for me to return to the Sanshan! I'll ask the winery to send you a few bottles. Our production capacity hasn't increased yet. As long as you don't think it's too little! "
"No, no, I just want to try it!" Zhao Cheng said happily, "Then it's a deal!"
"Deal!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"How about I get someone to get a few bottles from the Rongcheng Hotel and send it over now?" Song Rui said with a hint of eagerness.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Come on! Kid, you're such a heavy drinker? Didn't you hear me say that there was Zui Ba Xian in the capital? I didn't see you unable to survive! Okay, okay, stop messing around and drink! This Maotai is pretty good! "
After that, Xia Ruofei took the initiative to raise his glass and toast Zhao Cheng.
After lunch, Xia Ruofei said, "General Zhao, you just took your medicine not long ago. Don't take your medicine this time around. Wait until after dinner to take the second dose."
"Doctor Xia, you have the final say in the treatment. I will absolutely obey and cooperate with you!" Zhao Cheng quickly said.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Okay, then let's take a break in the afternoon! When it's about time, I'll go to the pharmacy to decoct the medicine. "
"No problem!"
Song Rui also came over and said, "Ruofei, then I'll leave Uncle Zhao to you. I won't stay here to accompany you."
"Go about your business! With me here, you can rest assured! "Xia Ruofei said.
Song Rui patted Xia Ruofei's shoulder and said, "Yeah, I'll be done with my business in Beijing in a day or two. Then, I'll return directly to San Shan City. Let's meet again there!"
"As long as you don't keep thinking about my cigarettes, my wine, and the vegetables, fruits, and flowers on my farm, Peach Blossom Farm will still welcome you," Xia Ruofei said with a grin.
Song Rui rolled his eyes and said, "I've never seen someone as stingy as you! I smoked a few packs of your cigarettes and you talked about it for so long … "
Xia Ruofei raised his head and laughed, not feeling ashamed at all.
After sending off Song Rui, Xia Ruofei said goodbye to Zhao Cheng and went back to his room to rest.
Although it wasn't convenient for Xia Ruofei to take out the Spirit Map Scroll in Zhao Cheng's room, as the owner of the Spirit Map World, Xia Ruofei could still communicate with the Spirit Puppet Xia Qing in the space even if he was in the outside world.
Xia Qing already knew that its master had found a clue about the World Stone in the outside world, so it was very happy for Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei specially asked Xia Qing if it would be affected when it absorbed the World Stone in the Spirit Map World and if it needed to make any special preparations.
Xia Qing said that it wouldn't be affected at all and that as long as Xia Ruofei got the World Stone, he could send it in at any time.
Xia Ruofei was relieved when he heard this and didn't continue to talk about it. Instead, he asked Xia Qing to wait patiently while he withdrew his consciousness from the Ring-Tu space.
At around five in the evening, Xia Ruofei got up and went to the pharmacy on the first floor. He skillfully found the herbs he needed and started to brew the medicine for Zhao Cheng to drink tonight.
Because Xia Ruofei lived here and there were many herbs here, Xia Ruofei only brewed one portion each time and drank it immediately.
Although it was a bit troublesome, the quality of the medicine was better.
After preparing the medicine, Xia Ruofei asked someone to bring it to Zhao Cheng to drink — actually, the main ingredient of the medicine was still the Spirit Heart Flower petals, so it didn't matter whether it was taken before or after meals.
Soon, it was time for dinner again. Zhao Cheng personally ate with Xia Ruofei while Colonel Jin Feng accompanied them.
After dinner, Xia Ruofei went back to his room.
For the next few days, Xia Ruofei lived a secluded life like this.
Every morning, he would brew the medicine while practicing martial arts in the spacious pharmacy. After he finished brewing the medicine, he would give it to Zhao Cheng and everyone would eat breakfast together.
It was the same at noon and at night. Xia Ruofei would come to the first floor one or two hours earlier to prepare the medicine. After Zhao Cheng drank the medicine, he would rest for a while and eat.
Other than brewing the medicine, Xia Ruofei spent the rest of the time in his room, reading books, surfing the Internet, and sometimes talking to Ling Qingxue on the phone.
If Song Rui had to live like this, he would probably be bored to death after a few days. However, Xia Ruofei didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
… …
In the blink of an eye, six days had passed.
Although Zhao Cheng talked and laughed with Xia Ruofei every day, he was actually under a lot of pressure.
Just a few days after the diagnosis, a leader from the headquarters had already talked to him and intended to adjust his position. To put it bluntly, it was to weaken his authority and transfer him from a frontline commander position to some insignificant position.
Although Zhao Cheng made it clear that he could continue to perform his duties as the chief of staff of the military region, and he quickly asked for leave on the grounds of recuperation, the news about his departure was still rampant.
In the past few days, there had even been rumors that a commander of a group army was going to take over Zhao Cheng's position. The rumors were very real and didn't seem to be made up by others.
Therefore, Zhao Cheng was actually very anxious, but he couldn't urge Xia Ruofei. He also knew that the Chinese medicine treatment would definitely take a long time, so even if he urged it, it would be useless. He could only hold on.
In the evening, after Zhao Cheng took the medicine that Xia Ruofei had just brewed, Xia Ruofei appeared in front of Zhao Cheng.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "General Zhao, the first course of treatment is over."
Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment. "It's over?"
He seemed to still be in a bit of disbelief. Based on his impression of Chinese medicine, it had only been six days, and he had only drunk a dozen doses of Chinese medicine. It had to be known that he had diabetes! It wasn't an ordinary cold or fever!
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "General Zhao can go to the hospital for a re-examination tomorrow morning. I think the symptoms of diabetes should have been greatly improved. At least, you don't need to use an insulin pump for the time being! "
Zhao Cheng was even more overjoyed when he heard this. He asked with some excitement, "Doctor Xia, is this true?"
This was too important for him! If he could get rid of the insulin pump, he believed that no one would be able to force him to resign. After all, he was a leader with real power in the region, and behind him stood a behemoth like the Family Song!
If they wanted to transfer him to an idle position, they would first let the commanders and deputy commanders of the other military regions, who had diabetes for several years, set an example!
If it weren't for Xia Ruofei saying that the last dose of Chinese medicine needed one night to be absorbed, Zhao Cheng might have run to the Military General Hospital overnight for a check-up.
He endured for one night with great difficulty. The next morning, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast. He directly drove to the Military General Hospital with Jin Feng.
Xia Ruofei, who was full of confidence, didn't even go with them. He went directly back to his room, made himself a cup of tea, and sat on the lounge chair on the big balcony to slowly sip it.
Zhao Cheng's examination results came out quickly. The group of experts and professors were shocked when they saw it. It had only been a little more than a week. How could the results be so different?
The last examination showed that he had extremely serious diabetes, and he had to be injected with insulin for life. Today's examination results still showed that his blood sugar was too high, but the degree was much lower. He only needed to take medicine to control it.
The difference between the two was still very big.
Could it be that there was a problem with the hospital's testing equipment? These doctors, experts, and professors didn't dare to easily tell the results to Zhao Cheng. Instead, they secretly informed the laboratory to use the same specimen to do another test. This time, they must be careful and there must be absolutely no problems.
The results of the second test also came out quickly. It was almost exactly the same as the first test!
The office was almost boiling. Everyone expressed their disbelief because this completely subverted the medical theory system that they had formed over many years.
Zhao Cheng didn't care how these people were shocked! All he wanted was the results.
Seeing that there were no results after a long time, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but shout, "Little Gao! Get out here … How come there are still no results after a long examination? Your hospital's efficiency is getting lower and lower! "
President Gao of the General Hospital quickly ran over with the examination report and said, "Congratulations, Chief! Your diabetes has been treated very well. All the indicators are more normal than the last examination … "
"I just want to know one thing!" Zhao Cheng interrupted President Gao, "Do I still need to use an insulin pump?"
"No! There's no need! " President Gao also heard the rumor that Zhao Cheng was going to be adjusted, so he quickly said, "Chief, you only need to use drugs to control it. At the same time, you can maintain good and healthy living habits! It won't affect your work! "
"Write this in the report!" Zhao Cheng said without hesitation.
This obviously illegal request made President Gao hesitate. However, when Zhao Cheng stared at him with his bull eyes, President Gao immediately agreed without any principles.
With this report, Zhao Cheng immediately went to the No.8 building. He found the head of the headquarters who spoke to him on behalf of the organization a few days ago. He directly placed the report on the head's desk and then sat down without saying a word.
The chief of the headquarters was a little confused. He reached out and took the report. He couldn't help but laugh. He pointed at Zhao Cheng and laughed, "Zhao Dapao, Zhao Dapao! Are you bored? After holding it in for a few days, you came up with this report to fool people? "
Zhao Cheng suddenly stood up and asked, "No … Chief, what do you mean?"
"Who doesn't know that Chief of Staff Zhao is overbearing? The General Hospital of the Military Region is under the leadership of the Beijing Military Region. You can't write this report however you want. "
Zhao Cheng immediately exploded, "Chief, how can you distrust me so much? What kind of person am I, Zhao Dapao, after so many years, don't you know? Don't talk about changing my position, even if I were to be removed from my position, do you think I would do such a trivial thing? "
The chief of the headquarters pondered for a moment and said, "This is not your style …"
"It's not like that!" Zhao Cheng said, "Chief, I went through a week of Chinese medicine treatment. All the indicators were reduced, and then I had to do a re-examination."
"Chinese medicine treatment? Treatment of diabetes? "The chief of the headquarters felt like he was listening to a fantasy story.
"Chief, at first I didn't believe it either." Zhao Cheng said with a smile, "But the facts are in front of me. This doctor's medical skills are really amazing! He said he could get rid of the insulin pump in a week, and he did it in six days! He also said that as long as I continue to receive treatment, it is completely possible for me to be cured! "
"Which famous doctor is it?" The chief of the headquarters couldn't help but ask curiously.
Zhao Cheng smiled embarrassedly and said, "Chief, I'm sorry! He was also introduced to me by an elder. He is an otherworldly expert. I promised him that I would keep his identity a secret. "
The chief of the headquarters laughed heartily and said, "That's good! Then I won't ask … "
Zhao Cheng asked with a hint of expectation, "Chief, since there is no big problem with my body, then work …"
"Work as usual!" The chief of the headquarters said, "But you, kid, don't be like before. Otherwise, your body will have a big problem sooner or later!"
"Okay! Thank you, chief! " Zhao Cheng was overjoyed. He stood up and saluted before continuing, "Chief, then I will go back first. I will rest for a day or two at most, then I will return to work!"
The outside world was abuzz with the news that a certain army's Commander Yang was going to take over his position as the chief of staff of the military region. Zhao Cheng couldn't wait to return to his position.
He wanted to let those who spread the news intentionally or unintentionally see that he, Old Zhao, was still in this position! Not only was he still there, but he would also get better and better in the future! Unless he was promoted or took the initiative to give up his position, no one would be able to take the position away from him!
The chief of the headquarters nodded with a smile. He knew his favorite subordinate very well and knew what Zhao Cheng was thinking.
Zhao Cheng left the No.1 building and asked Jin Feng to take the car back to the villa area of the military region.
Along the way, Zhao Cheng swept away the bad luck of the past few days and appeared high-spirited.
At this time, he was already thinking about how to properly thank Xia Ruofei in order to express his sincerity.
