“If these Stomach Protection Pills and Rheumatism Ointments can help improve their health, then I’ll be satisfied.”
“So, I can’t take too much from the profit sharing—one percent is enough.”
“I also plan to set aside this one percent and use it in the future to do more charitable work and help more people.”
Dr. Hao stared at Gu Jianing in stunned silence. She hadn’t expected Gu Jianing to have such awareness, and she couldn’t help but feel ashamed for how she had previously thought about her.
At this moment, Dr. Hao’s admiration for Gu Jianing reached its peak. “Alright, Comrade Gu, on behalf of the soldiers and the people, I sincerely thank you.”
“Truly, thank you.”
Once the terms were settled, the two quickly signed the contract.
It was agreed that once the Stomach Protection Pills and Rheumatism Ointments were put on the market, Gu Jianing would receive her share of the profits in her account every month.
Just before leaving, Dr. Hao casually asked one more question.
“Comrade Gu, if these Stomach Protection Pills and Rheumatism Ointments are going to be sold, what name do you think would be best for them?”
A name…
Gu Jianing thought for a moment and then said two words, “Ji Shi” (Saving the World).
The phrase “hanging a pot to save the world” symbolizes a doctor’s mission to heal and help others. “Ji Shi” alone was a fitting and meaningful choice.
Dr. Hao softly repeated the words “Ji Shi,” nodded in agreement, and then left.
When she returned to the hospital, she was immediately surrounded by people. Everyone knew she had gone to negotiate and sign the contract on behalf of the military hospital, and they were all eager to know the outcome.
After seeing the details of the contract, they were all shocked, then deeply moved.
“Comrade Gu is truly selfless.”
“Not only is she skilled in medicine, but she also has a strong sense of duty. She’s an outstanding person.”
“No wonder that brat Sheng Zexi, who has such high standards, insisted on marrying her. Turns out, he found a treasure and couldn’t wait to bring her home.”
Pang Wenjing had been in a daze ever since Gu Jianing successfully performed surgery on Cui Bin the day before.
She couldn’t believe that a rural woman could be more capable than the director of the military hospital.
And when she saw Gu Jianing conversing fluently with the hospital director and other doctors, she finally realized—this woman was nothing like she had imagined.
Now, upon hearing from Dr. Hao about the contract signing and learning that Gu Jianing had voluntarily taken less profit, seeing the doctors’ praise for her, Pang Wenjing’s last bit of hope that Sheng Zexi and Gu Jianing might divorce was completely extinguished.
She had to admit—Sheng Zexi was not someone who only cared about appearances. Gu Jianing was indeed worthy of his affection.
And so, though Pang Wenjing was unwilling, she finally gave up her feelings for Sheng Zexi.
Later, when Pang Wenjing told her brother, Pang Yude, that she was ready to consider marriage prospects, he was so shocked that he was momentarily speechless. But he quickly got to work arranging everything.
….
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully treating Patient No. 6, Jiang Baihe. Rewards received: 100 points, Universal Hemostatic Bandage 1, Twin Boys Conception Pill 1.]
As soon as Jiang Baihe completed her treatment with Gu Jianing on the seventh day, the system’s voice rang in her mind.
Mission complete? That’s great!
With this, her points had now reached 243, and she had also obtained the Universal Hemostatic Bandage.
But since Brother Xi (Sheng Zexi) didn’t have any missions at the moment, and he said that the next one wouldn’t happen until after the mountains were sealed by heavy snow—which meant at least until spring—she decided to give him the bandage then.
However, she would have to remind him not to give it away carelessly. Unlike the Stomach Protection Pills and Rheumatism Ointments, this was something that couldn’t be mass-produced.
Today was the last day of treatment, and Chai Jianguo had specially taken leave to accompany Jiang Baihe.
After the treatment was completed, the couple looked at Gu Jianing with anticipation, hoping she would say something.
Gu Jianing did not disappoint them.
“Sister-in-law, the one-week treatment is now complete. The blockage in your fallopian tubes has been fully cured. From now on, you can start preparing for pregnancy. I believe that once fate aligns, the baby will come soon.”
According to the system, now that Jiang Baihe’s fallopian tube blockage had been resolved, her body was actually highly fertile, and she should be able to conceive quickly.
“Sister-in-law, are you… are you serious?” Jiang Baihe covered her mouth, unable to hold back her tears. But this time, they were tears of joy and excitement.
Chai Jianguo grasped his wife’s hand and bowed respectfully to Gu Jianing. “Comrade Gu, thank you. I hope your words come true, and Baihe and I can have a child.”
If they truly had a child, then Gu Jianing would be their family’s greatest benefactor—one they could never forget.
After Chai Jianguo and Jiang Baihe left, Gu Jianing called Zhang Shuwan over.
“Jianing, I’m here.” Zhang Shuwan wasted no time. As soon as Gu Jianing called her, she immediately came over.
She had always remembered what Gu Jianing had told her—that once Jiang Baihe’s treatment was complete, Jianing would help her conceive a child.
During these past few days, although she was anxious, she had not pressed Gu Jianing about it. She simply waited patiently.
She hadn’t even told Lin Xing about it. Although she trusted Jianing, this matter was still uncertain. She wanted to wait until there were actual results before informing her husband.
Even though she never asked directly, she had been silently following Jiang Baihe’s treatment progress.
She knew that today was the last day of Jiang Baihe’s treatment.
If Jiang Baihe’s treatment was successful today, then…
Just as she was anxiously waiting at home, Gu Jianing called for her.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she rushed over immediately.
Then, Gu Jianing said, “Sister Shuwan, regarding what I told you before about helping you conceive, I can do it. But I hope you can keep it a secret. Besides you, not even Battalion Commander Lin can know.”
“If you can keep this confidential, then…”
“I can!” Before Gu Jianing could even finish her sentence, Zhang Shuwan immediately gave her answer. “Jianing, I understand. If such medical skills or medicine exist, they must be extremely rare. I know you’re willing to share this with me because we’re friends, and I truly appreciate it.”
“I promise, not even Lin Xing will hear a word about this from me.”
“Good.” Hearing Zhang Shuwan’s response, Gu Jianing breathed a sigh of relief. After spending time together over the past weeks, she trusted Zhang Shuwan.
Then, Zhang Shuwan saw Gu Jianing take out a handkerchief, and on it lay a small, green pill.
As soon as the pill was exposed, the air was filled with a fresh, herbal fragrance.
“Sister Shuwan, take this pill. Once you do, everything will be fine.” Gu Jianing pushed the handkerchief toward Zhang Shuwan.
Could this small pill really make her pregnant?
This pill… seemed extraordinary.
As she inhaled the herbal scent in the air, Zhang Shuwan became even more convinced of this thought.
“Alright.” Without hesitation, Zhang Shuwan reached out, picked up the pill, and placed it in her mouth.
She didn’t need water. The pill, about a centimeter in size, melted the moment it entered her mouth. She felt a warm, refreshing sensation flow through her body—a strange but wonderful feeling that she couldn’t quite describe.
But she was certain—it felt good.
