Chapter 682: If you miss it, it's your whole life
"I feel very honored to receive the highest honor given to me by the country, but I also feel the heavy burden on my shoulders. This is the trust and encouragement of the country and the people. I will redouble my efforts in the future and use my medical skills to benefit all mankind. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone that this honor does not belong to me alone, but to all the medical staff and soldiers who participated in this anti-epidemic campaign."
This answer can be said to be very appropriate.
Li Quan looked at the medal personally given to him by a senior official, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
This was the first time in his life that he received such a high-level award.
The supreme honor gave him a halo that ordinary people did not have.
I believe that after today’s award news release, Li Quan’s reputation will rise to a new height.
After receiving the award, Li Quan avoided the reporters who were like hungry wolves and quickly left the scene by car.
"Dean, where are we going now? Should we take you home or to Weir Hospital?"
The driver Xiao Xu asked respectfully.
Li Quan was seconded to Noah's Ark Base for research recently. He led the entire team to fight for many days and finally lived up to the expectations of his superiors. He successfully developed a method to treat the zombie virus.
Now that it was over , he would definitely go back to Wheeler Hospital to continue serving as the dean.
"Go to No. 86 Ancestral Hall Road first." Li Quan said lightly.
"OK!"
The car turned around and quickly headed towards Ancestral Hall Road.
Although the driver Xiao Xu didn't say anything , he must have been very confused in his heart.
The dean is a very busy man, why would he go to the ancestral hall?
…
More than forty minutes later, the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle stopped steadily at the gate of No. 86 Ancestral Hall Road.
This is a courtyard house with a very old feel.
It has a unique style that mixes Western and Chinese styles. It is also a product of the 1940s and 1950s.
At that time , there were many foreigners living in Shanghai and buying properties.
Then we invited local Chinese craftsmen to do the construction.
But they will add some of their own preferences into it.
So it became this unique style that blends Chinese and Western styles.
"Wait for me at the door!"
After Li Quan got out of the car, he rang the doorbell directly.
The gate of the courtyard is not made of alloy, but an old wooden door.
Soon, the gate opened.
"Who are you looking for?"
The person who opened the door was a lady in her forties or fifties.
"Is this Miss Tang Han's residence?" Li Quan came to visit Tang Han this time, actually without telling his wife.
Sophie was pregnant, and he didn't dare to make her angry.
If the fetus is disturbed, it is easy to have a miscarriage.
"Who are you?"
"Li Quan! An old friend of Miss Tang Han!"
Li Quan didn't know who this aunt was to Tang Han.
"Please come in!"
After hearing Li Quan’s identity, the other party opened the door and stepped aside to make way.
It seems that Tang Han should have explained it long ago.
Or maybe this aunt also knows the relationship between Li Quan and Tang Han.
After entering the courtyard, you can see many flowers and plants planted in the yard, which are well arranged and pleasing to the eye.
"Miss Tang, there is a man named Li Quan who wants to see you. Would you like to let him in?"
Auntie asked inside.
"Come in!"
The voice sounded a little weak.
Looking weak and powerless.
Li Quan's ability to diagnose by smell was instinctively used, and he made a preliminary diagnosis of the person inside.
"The internal energy is insufficient, the spirit is broken, this is a sign of a long-term illness. And the situation should be very dangerous, and he may die at any time."
After reaching the diagnosis, even Li Quan himself was shocked.
Tang Han is about the same age as Li Quan, maybe even a little younger.
Logically speaking, Zhaohua is only 27 or 28 years old, so it is impossible for him to be so seriously ill.
Only those in their eighties or nineties who have been bedridden for a long time would become so weak.
[You have successfully performed the art of auscultation, skill points +10. ]
It seems that Li Quan's diagnosis is correct.
"Is Miss Tang Han sick?"
Li Quan felt heavy in his heart. How could such a healthy person suddenly become so seriously ill?
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a cold face.
It was none other than the woman who went to Noah's Ark Base last time to deliver ancient bacteria to Li Quan.
Li Quan remembered that her name seemed to be Yu Min.
Every time I see this woman, I feel like I owe her a debt.
She looked at him coldly.
"You could have come later, just in time to attend Chairman Tang's funeral." Yu Min spoke very impolitely.
"I'm sorry, I was delayed by something. Also, I didn't expect Tang Han to be so seriously ill." Li Quan's heart was full of apologies.
He and Tang Han were classmates, and later became colleagues for a year.
I really don't understand why she is so devoted to me.
"Yu Min, don't blame him." Tang Han, lying on the old wooden bed, looked very thin, with only skin and bones left.
The former most beautiful girl in Huier Hospital and the most beautiful girl in Li Quan's class has now become a terminally ill monster.
"Tang Han, what's wrong with you?"
Li Quan looked at the woman on the hospital bed and felt very uncomfortable.
I feel sad too.
This woman used to be so radiant and beautiful.
But now it has become like this.
"If Chairman Tang hadn't been helping you find bacteria that can suppress the zombie virus, you wouldn't have gotten sick at all."
Yu Min said again coldly.
"You got sick because you wanted to help me?"
Li Quan's heart suddenly felt like it was pricked by a needle. It was very painful and heavy.
"Our Chairman Tang heard that your parents were infected with the zombie virus. The treatment plan you developed cannot cure the zombie virus without good probiotics. In order to help you, she personally led a scientific research team to the Arctic to search for ancient bacteria under the thick ice and permafrost.
In fact, we have known for a long time that there are ancient bacteria in that place.
But it's very dangerous there, with strong radiation, and no one dares to go down there even if they are wearing protective clothing.
Finally, Chairman Tang went down to get the mushrooms himself, and this was successful.
It can be said that the Tai Sui bacteria I gave you last time was exchanged for our Chairman Tang’s life, do you understand?"
Yu Min's voice choked several times and her eyes were red.
No wonder her attitude towards Li Quan was so bad, even hostile.
It turned out that Tang Han suffered such a miserable end because of helping Li Quan.
Then, after Li Quan won the award, he was in great glory, but he didn't come to visit Tang Han for a long time.
It seems so inhumane.
"Tang Han, why are you so stupid? You risked your life to help me. Is it worth it?"
Li Quan looked at the thin figure on the hospital bed, his lips trembling as he spoke.
"Oh! What is love in this world? It is to be together for life and death. As long as I can help you, it doesn't matter even if I have to sacrifice my life. Before I die, it is enough for me to see you once."
She tried to force a smile.
For ordinary people, wanting to smile is a very simple thing.
It's easy to do.
But it was very difficult for her to show such a smile.
Li Quan felt even more heartbroken.
"I'm already married, and it's not worthy for you to treat me like this. There are so many good men in the world, why do you have to choose me alone?" Li Quan really didn't understand why Tang Han was so stupid and foolish.
Women, sometimes, become particularly terrible once they fall in love.
They don't care about anything and risk their lives.
"Once, there was an opportunity in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. I have been regretting it. If I had not been indecisive at the beginning, I would have been better if I had directly decided that it was you. In order to make up for it, I am willing to devote everything in my life.
If nothing else, just to get a little spiritual comfort. "
Her eyes were particularly bright at this moment.
He stared at Li Quan so closely, as if he was afraid that Li Quan would disappear in the blink of an eye.
"You silly woman, love is actually about fate. I didn't choose you at the beginning, not because you are not good enough, nor because you are indecisive, but because we are not destined to be together."
One of the reasons why Li Quan did not choose her at the beginning was indeed because she had feelings for other men.
Not specific enough.
I guess no man would be willing to marry a woman who is good at dancing and fickle.
Unless you are not afraid of being cheated on.
In the final analysis, the fate between the two people is too shallow.
"Li Quan, if there is a next life, please don't marry other women, marry me, okay?"
Tang Han mustered up the courage to ask.
"Uh... this..."
Li Quan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
No one knows whether there is an afterlife or not. Even if there is, Li Quan probably still wants to marry Sophie.
A husband and wife once in a day are bound by a hundred days of grace.
He and Sophie have a deep relationship and they love each other very much.
No other woman can shake Sophie's position in Li Quan's heart.
There is a saying that goes, whether it is love or friendship, it will eventually turn into family affection over time.
"I... I'm going to die soon. Even if you are lying to me and tell me a white lie, please promise me this time, okay?" She looked at Li Quan with a begging expression.
Faced with this kind of scene, even a man with a heart of stone will become soft-hearted.
"Okay, I promise you. If there is an afterlife, I will marry you."
Li Quan also knew that she was beyond help.
The disease has become like this, even if a god came, he couldn’t save it.
Li Quan is just a mortal after all, and no matter how great his medical skills are, there is a limit.
Since she can't be cured, the only thing I can do is to fulfill her last wish before she passes away.
"In this world of mortals, there are thousands of beauties that are not as beautiful as the bodhi leaves, but you have transcended the world of Saha and become the one I love most in my heart. No matter how huge the waves are, or how the world changes, none of them can compare to your sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, and voice like a Buddhist chant. I have you in this life..."
Tang Han said this in a weak and affectionate voice, and before he finished speaking, he slowly closed his eyes.
She has been able to hold on until now, holding on with one breath just to wait for Li Quan.
To see Li Quan.
Now that Li Quan has finished his work, he finally comes to see her.
Her wish was fulfilled.
If you lose your breath, you will die.
"Chairman Tang..."
Yu Min cried bitterly and covered her mouth tightly.
But his body kept twitching.
"If there is an afterlife, I hope you will no longer suffer from the pain of lovesickness and the debt of love. I hope you can be happy every day." Li Quan, a tough guy, already had red eyes and tears streaming down his face.
In his entire life, he only owed things to three women.
One is the mother who gave birth to him and raised him.
What I owe is the grace of raising me.
There is also Sophie, who owes love and affection that she can never repay in her lifetime.
The last one is Tang Han.
Her love for Li Quan was one-sided and too deep.
It was so deep that Li Quan couldn't bear it at all.
"Did Chairman Tang give any instructions? For example, any unfulfilled wishes?"
Li Quan asked Yu Min.
Because she is the closest person to Tang Han.
"Speaking of her last wish, what Chairman Tang hoped to accomplish most before her death was to expand and strengthen the Virus Research Institute. She said that the core of the world's future medical skills will not be the so-called drugs and various high-tech instruments for disease detection, as well as various sophisticated treatment methods.
Future medical research will definitely focus on viruses, bacteria, and fungi.
These three things are what really make people sick.”
Yu Min's voice was hoarse.
After pausing several times, he finally expressed Tang Han's last wish.
"The core of future medicine is viruses, bacteria, and fungi! What a brilliant woman! Her foresight is admirable."
Li Quan's eyes lit up slightly, as if Tang Han had opened a window for him.
This window allows us to glimpse the mysteries of future medicine.
Why do people get sick?
The saying "diseases come from the mouth" actually means that they are caused by what we eat.
Bacteria, fungi, and viruses are eaten into the stomach, and then they begin to invade the human body from the inside, destroying the human immune system and ultimately making people sick.
“Perhaps, the future medicine will only study these three things, which is too narrow. But the core of future medicine must be these three things.
The Quan Han Virus Research Institute was founded by Tang Han. If you are willing, I can acquire the Quan Han Virus Research Institute.
And then do my best to make it a medical center at Wheeler Hospital.
It could even make it the world’s top virus research center.”
Li Quan thought about it and said in a serious tone.
This was also a promise he made in front of Tang Han.
"Thank you! Chairman Tang also expected you to do this, so he told me that as long as you have this intention, he will agree to transfer the virus research institute to you. However, every employee in the institute was trained by Chairman Tang himself. I hope you can treat every employee well and retain their original positions."
Yu Min's treatment of Li Quan became slightly better.
If Quan Han Virus Research Institute wants to become bigger and stronger, the best way is to board the fast ship of Huier Hospital.
You can quickly obtain support in terms of funds, technology, venues, etc.
"After we have dealt with Chairman Tang's funeral, we will go and handle the formalities." Li Quan nodded, and the matter was settled.
In fact, with the current strength of Huier Hospital, it should look down on a small company like Quanhan Virus Research Institute.
However, out of consideration for Tang Han, Li Quan is willing to help the company grow rapidly.
…
Five days later, Tang Han's funeral was completed.
On the day of the memorial service, many former alumni and Tang Han’s relatives and friends came to pay their respects.
Li Quan not only contributed money but also took time out to take care of her funeral.
He also spent a lot of money to buy her a very good tomb.
It was a proper burial for her.
Since ancient times, there has been a tradition of lavish burials.
It can also be regarded as a kind of comfort and respect for her.
