　　The Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine was quiet, almost too quiet.
　　Although, like on weekdays, not a single patient could be seen, yet Ye Qiu still smelled a hint of something amiss.
　　Fu Yanjie had been suspended from his duties and didn’t come to work.
　　In the office, there were only Lao Xiang and Su Xiaoxiao.
　　Lao Xiang was looking at the medical records, his brows tightly furrowed, looking extremely worried.
　　Su Xiaoxiao was sitting in the corner, secretly wiping away her tears.
　　”What’s wrong with you guys？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　Hearing his voice, Lao Xiang and Su Xiaoxiao simultaneously raised their heads. The next second, Lao Xiang put down the newspaper in his hand, quickly got up, and was just about to greet Ye Qiu when he saw Su Xiaoxiao rush into Ye Qiu’s arms.
　　”Director——” Su Xiaoxiao’s cry carried a sobbing tone. She tightly hugged Ye Qiu and the tears kept flowing.
　　Ye Qiu only felt a soft and elastic squeeze coming from his chest. He thought to himself, this little girl is really something.
　　”Xiaoxiao, what’s wrong with you？” Ye Qiu asked gently.
　　”Director, I, I…” Su Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Qiu and stopped speaking halfway.
　　”Did someone bully you？ Tell me, and I’ll get justice for you.” Ye Qiu said.
　　”Director, I, I haven’t been bullied by anyone.” Although Su Xiaoxiao said this, her tears flowed even more profusely.
　　Ye Qiu took out a tissue and helped Su Xiaoxiao wipe away her tears. Then he asked Lao Xiang, “What exactly happened？”
　　Sigh…
　　Lao Xiang let out a long sigh and said, “Xiaoxiao was bullied by the dean.”
　　”The dean？” Ye Qiu asked. “Which dean？”
　　”Don’t you know, Director？” Lao Xiang looked at Ye Qiu in surprise.
　　Ye Qiu was a bit confused and asked, “What do I know？”
　　”It seems you really don’t know, Director.” Lao Xiang said. “A new dean has been transferred to our hospital, named Liu Chao.”
　　”Is it the former executive vice president of Jiangzhou Central Hospital, Liu Chao？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　He had heard from Bai Bing that a new dean was going to be transferred to Jiangzhou Hospital.
　　”Yes, it’s him.” Lao Xiang said. “Dean Liu came to inspect our department this morning.”
　　”And then？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　Lao Xiang replied, “And then Dean Liu was very dissatisfied with our department. He said that the performance of our department has been at the bottom every year. If this continues, the traditional Chinese medicine department will be closed.”
　　Ye Qiu already knew about this situation.
　　Bai Bing had also reminded him many times to find a way to improve the performance of the traditional Chinese medicine department, otherwise the hospital might really close the traditional Chinese medicine department.
　　”What else did Liu Chao say？” Ye Qiu asked eagerly.
　　”He…” Lao Xiang glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and hesitated.
　　”Lao Xiang, these are all our own people here. Just say what you have to say.” Ye Qiu urged.
　　Lao Xiang nodded and said, “When Dean Liu was inspecting, he saw that Xiaoxiao was beautiful and then started to molest Xiaoxiao…”
　　Damn it！
　　Ye Qiu was furious on the spot.
　　He had long heard from Bai Bing that Liu Chao was not a good person, greedy for money and lustful, but he never expected that he would be so disrespectful to his female subordinates.
As far as Ye Qiu knew, when the dean inspected the department, there would be many chief physicians accompanying him. In full view of the public, Liu Chao still dared to molest Su Xiaoxiao. It can be seen how rampant this person was.
　　What　a　beast！
　　No wonder Su Xiaoxiao would be so wronged.
　　Ye Qiu comforted and said, “Xiaoxiao, don’t cry. Don’t worry, I will definitely ask Liu Chao for an explanation for this matter.”
　　”Director Ye, in my opinion, why don’t we just forget about this matter？” Lao Xiang said. “This morning, the hospital held a general meeting and you didn’t show up, which has already made Dean Liu very dissatisfied.”
　　”Later, when Dean Liu came to the department for inspection, you were not there again. Dean Liu even said that your tail was up in the sky.”
　　”Anyway, Dean Liu said a lot of unpleasant things. If you provoke him again because of Xiaoxiao’s matter, I’m afraid he will make things difficult for you！”
　　Su Xiaoxiao also said understandingly, “Director, it doesn’t matter if I suffer a little grievance, but I can’t implicate you.”
　　”Lao Xiang, where is Sister Bing？” Ye Qiu asked again.
　　Sister Bing？
　　Hearing this address, Lao Xiang was stunned for a moment and asked back, “Director, who is Sister Bing？”
Ye Qiu then realized that the address he privately used for Bai Bing, Lao Xiang didn’t know at all, and said, “I’m talking about Bai Bing.”
　　”Vice President Bai? She has already left.”
　　Left？
　　Ye Qiu was stunned. He knew that Bai Bing was going to leave, but he didn’t expect her to leave so soon.
　　Suddenly, he remembered the poem that Bai Bing had sent him when he was in Dadong.
　　”So that’s why Sister Bing sent me a poem out of the blue. It turns out she was saying goodbye to me.”
　　Ye Qiu regretted it deeply in his heart.
　　If he had known that he wouldn’t be able to see Bai Bing when he came back, he should have replied to her message no matter what.
　　”Where has Bai Bing been transferred to? Do you know?” Ye Qiu asked again.
　　Lao Xiang said, “I heard that Director Bai has been transferred to Peking Union Medical College Hospital.”
　　What！
　　Ye Qiu stood there dumbfounded.
　　He had thought that Bai Bing would be transferred to a hospital in Jiangzhou to be the president or something, but who would have thought that Bai Bing would actually return to Beijing.
　　In an instant, Ye Qiu felt empty.
　　”Director Ye, Director Ye…”
　　Lao Xiang called twice in a row before Ye Qiu came back to his senses.
　　”Lao Xiang, Xiao Xiao, you have to work hard. Let’s work together and strive to improve the performance of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.” Ye Qiu said.
　　”Director, I have an unseemly request…”
　　Before Lao Xiang could finish speaking, Ye Qiu asked, “Are you talking about Fu Yanjie？”
　　”Yes.” Lao Xiang said, “Little Fatty came to drink with me yesterday. He said a lot of things. I think he really knows he was wrong. Director, please give him a chance.”
　　”Okay, let him write a self-criticism and come back to work. Remember, there will be no next time.”
　　Now is the time when the Chinese Medicine Department needs people. One more person means one more strength.
　　”Thank you, Director.” Lao Xiang’s face immediately lit up with a smile.
　　”You guys are busy first. I’m going to find President Liu.”
　　As soon as he heard that Ye Qiu was going to find Liu Chao, Lao Xiang quickly dissuaded him and said, “Director, after all, President Liu is the president of the hospital. It’s not appropriate for us to confront him for the time being. Director…”
　　”Lao Xiang, I know you mean well for me, but don’t persuade me about this matter.”
　　Ye Qiu said, “If I can’t even protect my subordinates, then how can I have the face to be the director of the Chinese Medicine Department？”
　　”You guys remember this. In the future, if anyone dares to bully you, just tell me.”
　　”I don’t believe that there is anyone in Jiangzhou who dares to bully my people.”
　　Ye Qiu made a final decision！
　　Overbearing and yet touching.
　　Suddenly, both Lao Xiang and Su Xiaoxiao felt warm in their hearts.
　　”Director, thank you.” Su Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Qiu with admiration.
　　After all, Lao Xiang is a middle-aged man and more mature. He said, “Director, you still have to be careful about this matter. President Liu is not a good person. If you offend him, I’m afraid your days in the hospital in the future…”
　　”Don’t worry. He’s just a president. If I offend him, I offend him. He doesn’t dare to do anything to me.”
　　After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he turned around and headed for the president’s office.
