Chapter 603: Chapter 603: Teaching at the University

"Teacher Qin!"

Fang Bai strode into the dean’s office, first greeting Qin Yaorao, who was seated on the sofa, and then he nodded to Dean Zhang Chen.

The young woman sitting on the sofa was indeed Qin Yaorao. Seeing Fang Bai’s entry, she stood up with a face full of joy and said, "Fang Bai, you’re here?"

The Qin Yaorao in front of him was still dressed in her OL attire, with her figure curvy in all the right places. However, her usual updo had been replaced by smooth, shoulder-length hair, and the glasses she used to wear had been removed. Even her delicate facial features were now unexpectedly adorned with a light touch of makeup...

This version of Qin Yaorao was somewhat less mature and professional compared to when Fang Bai had studied at the medical university, but she had become more youthful and charming, exuding even more of a feminine allure.

Fang Bai hadn’t expected such a significant change in Qin Yaorao, and couldn’t help but give her a few more glances, as if he was meeting her for the first time.

Qin Yaorao noticed Fang Bai’s gaze, and a bashful expression emerged on her lovely face.

Fang Bai smiled and said, "Yes, Teacher Qin, we meet again. You must be very busy to have come to see me, Teacher Qin. Is there something important?"

Qin Yaorao’s expression became serious as she nodded and replied, "Yes, there’s something..."

"Doctor Fang has arrived? Hahaha... Please take a seat!"

Dean Zhang greeted Fang Bai warmly, asking his secretary Feng Xiaoyan to brew a cup of tea for Fang Bai before smilingly saying, "It must be quite busy in your department on your first day back at work after the New Year, right?"

"Indeed, very busy! After starting work today, I saw dozens of patients one after another; I barely even had time for a sip of water! Considering how hard I’ve worked, perhaps Dean Zhang should think about giving me a raise?"

Fang Bai joked.

Dean Zhang laughed heartily and said, "Salary is not a problem! As long as Doctor Fang agrees to stay on at Yanjing Hospital after the internship period is over, when that time comes, you can name your price!"

As Fang Bai’s reputation rose, major hospitals across Huaxia had taken an interest in luring him away by all means. Dean Zhang Chen of Yanjing Hospital, of course, was determined to keep this divine doctor, offering high positions and salaries.

After a few jokes and some light conversation, Fang Bai learned that Dean Zhang was one of Qin Yaorao’s elders and that their families were somewhat related. Qin Yaorao had mainly come to discuss something with him and to visit Dean Zhang at the same time.

"I hear that Doctor Fang and Yaorao used to have a teacher-student relationship?"

Dean Zhang’s gaze swept over the faces of Qin Yaorao and Fang Bai before he smiled and smoothly shifted the topic.

Fang Bai and Qin Yaorao both nodded in unison.

Dean Zhang said, "That’s good. Since there is that connection between you two, it will make things much easier. Yaorao, why don’t you talk with Doctor Fang? I certainly can’t make decisions for Doctor Fang regarding this matter!"

Fang Bai turned his head to look at Qin Yaorao, curious about what she wanted from him.

Facing Fang Bai’s gaze, Qin Yaorao spoke earnestly, "Here’s the thing, Fang Bai, I’ve now taken up a teaching position at Yanjing Medical University. Our university’s Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine has enrolled quite a few students this year but lacks expert professors in the field of traditional medicine..."

Upon hearing of your great reputation, our school’s leadership, knowing about the teacher-student relationship we once had, has entrusted me to discuss with you the possibility of appointing you as an honorary professor for our school and to teach students in the Chinese medicine program.

Don’t worry, it won’t take up much of your time. You’d only need to spare half a day a week to teach. Regarding the remuneration, we can discuss..."

Qin Yaorao said this and glanced at Fang Bai before continuing, "Chinese medicine is one of the treasures of Huaxia civilization, but due to well-known reasons, its influence has declined, and both the medical practitioners of Chinese medicine and the students willing to study it are becoming fewer and fewer, which is extremely disheartening...

Fang Bai, I know you possess miraculous medical skills and have the virtue of kindness inherent in a healer, but I feel it would be such a pity if your medical skills do not shine brightly, allowing more people to learn and spread them!

Both publicly and privately, I hope you can accept our school’s invitation to use your exquisite medical skills to show the students of Chinese medicine the breadth and wonder of Huaxia’s medical practices, to get them to like Chinese medicine, fall in love with it, and delve into it, so that they may become renowned doctors, Divine Doctors. Perhaps because of you, Huaxia’s Chinese medicine can stand tall in the world medical community in the near future and burst forth with brilliant light!"

When Qin Yaorao finished speaking, she looked at Fang Bai with anticipation, feeling somewhat nervous inside. She didn’t know if her impassioned words had moved Fang Bai, nor did she know if her former student would do her the honor.

"Teacher Qin is teaching at Yanjing Medical University?"

Instead of answering Qin Yaorao directly, Fang Bai asked in return, "In the Chinese medicine program at your school, is there a student named Xiong Yingxiong?"

"Xiong Yingxiong?"

Qin Yaorao was taken aback and then shook her head, "I don’t know him. I haven’t been teaching at the Medical University for long and am not very familiar with the environment and students there... Why, does Xiong Yingxiong have something to do with you?"

Fang Bai said, "He is a disciple I took on a while ago... Teacher Qin, you are right, popularizing Chinese medicine is the responsibility of those of us in the Chinese medicine field, and it’s also a great service to the nation and its people! I’ve decided to accept your school’s appointment and can start lecturing at your school anytime!"

Fang Bai decided to accept the offer from Yanjing Medical University for three reasons.

The first reason was out of respect for Qin Yaorao. Fang Bai had a harmonious teacher-student relationship with Qin Yaorao from before, and last time, he had done Qin Yaorao a big favor by disrupting her arranged marriage with Wen Family’s Wen Shiba, which changed their relationship from teacher-student to friends.

The second reason was his new disciple, Xiong Yingxiong, who was studying at Yanjing Medical University. When Fang Bai went there to teach, he could also provide guidance to Xiong Yingxiong.

The third reason was that Fang Bai wanted to see if there were any other students with potential in Chinese medicine at Yanjing Medical University. If there were, he planned to provide careful guidance, hoping to mentor several Chinese medicine experts, thus making his own contribution to Huaxia’s traditional medical arts and not making his time in this world in vain.

"That’s wonderful!"

Qin Yaorao hadn’t expected Fang Bai to agree so readily, and her excitement showed as she said, "Fang Bai, thank you! I’ll go back and report to the school leadership right away! Once our school makes the corresponding arrangements, we will notify you!"

Fang Bai smiled and said, "You’re being too formal, Teacher Qin!"

Qin Yaorao tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear and smiled, "From now on, we will be colleagues, so you can drop the formal title. Just call me by my name!"

Fang Bai nodded, "Okay!"

After that, Qin Yaorao talked about some things related to Yanjing Medical University, giving Fang Bai a preliminary understanding of the school. Seeing that it was getting late, she then stood up to leave.

Fang Bai personally escorted Qin Yaorao to the hospital’s main entrance, watched her leave, and then returned to his acupuncture and massage room.
