Medical Sovereign

An hour later, the man with the crew cut hairstyle drove him out in person. When Ding Ning touched the bachelor’s certificate of the Shenzhou Academy of Sciences, his brain was still in a mess. It was just like a dream.

He did not expect that these high-ranking bosses were so approachable and treated him like their child, with their eyes full of love.

The process of the authorization negotiation went smoothly. The big bosses did not intimidate or lure him, but fully respected his decision, making his uneasiness disappear.

While he was driving, the man with the crew cut hairstyle observed Ding Ning’s expression in the rear-view mirror, feeling quite shocked.

This was the first time he had been appointed by the chief himself to escort someone since he was in charge of the security of the chief. Besides, the chief also asked him to ensure Ding Ning’s safety while he was in Yan Jing.

This honor was enough for anyone to show off for a lifetime. It was not a joke. This was a lengthened special Hongqi car with a bulletproof function. Perhaps, there was more than one such a car in Shenzhou, but the No.1 license plate with red words on the white background and the first word being “nation” was enough to prove that the chief valued the young man very much.

However, Ding Ning did not realize how glorious this treatment was. He grinned and was still immersed in the joy of self-happiness.

The great joyous event of getting the honorary title of academician was worth celebrating, but the reason for his joy was from the chief’s approval of the big problem that gave him a serious headache, so he could not help having a radiant smile.

“Hahaha, I really didn’t expect that this little guy would refuse the medal for heroism but make such a request.”

After Ding Ning left, the seven big bosses still didn’t leave the ordinary ancient building but had strange expressions.

Chief No. 1 shook his head with a wry smile, as if he had not come back to his senses from the “absurd” request Ding Ning had proposed.

“Since ancient times, the ways of thinking of geniuses have been different from those of ordinary people. Since Academician Little Ding has developed the Rice Bean Oral Solution at the age of 22, we can say that he has made a great contribution to our country. The most valuable thing is that he does not seek fame or profits and is reasonable. Although the request he put forward is a little “absurd”, it is never too much. He is a very good little guy.”

A big boss smiled gently and shook his head, without covering his appreciation of Ding Ning.

“Right, anyway, since this little guy dared to put forward such a request in front of us, I think he was really brave, though his action was brusque.”

Chief No.2 laughed so much that he covered his belly. For so many years, Chief No.1 would look very calm even when he faced the mysterious and complicated international situation, due to his great skill of mastering his temper.

But when he recalled his own strange expression as he heard the “absurd” request Ding Ning proposed very shyly, he could not help wanting to smile.

“He loves beauties but does not love power. He is as romantic as Edward VIII! I am really curious about the lady he likes. When his wedding day comes, I really want to take a look at the rare scene.”

Another big boss had a smile that could not be disguised. He, who seemed to recall his dynamic youth, said with repetitive sighs.

“Is accepting his condition for us like this suitable? This is an act that violates the law and morality. I hope it is not wrong.”

One big boss expressed his worry. After all, agreeing to such a condition could be regarded as a stain for their ruling process.

“Although it violates the law of our country, special talents should be treated specially. At least, he is much better than those who have a wife and many mistresses. At least, he is willing to give each of his beloved ones the title of a wife or a similar kind. This proves that he is a little guy who has love and is responsible.”

Chief No. 2 frowned and defended Ding Ning.

“That’s right. This is very common now. I’m just worried that those who make contributions to our country will also make some unreasonable requests like him in the future…”

The big boss who was a little worried agreed but still had worries.

“Well, I nodded and agreed to it, and I signed my name and approved it myself. It’s natural for me to take responsibility for its merits and demerits. It has nothing to do with all of you.”

Chief No. 1 sonorously interrupted him and set a standard for the matter.

As a pioneer in the reform of Shenzhou Country, he had always been strong with an iron hand, was not restrained by details, rewarded those who made contributions, punished those who made mistakes, and would never care about his reputation.

What he cared about was how to improve the living standards of the people, how to improve the status of Shenzhou in the world, and how to cleanse the governance and make the country rich and its people strong…

Otherwise, he would not have vigorously promoted actions such as anti-corruption and anti-gangsters that would damage the interests of so many people, nor would he have taken the risk of leaving a stain on his reputation to accept the absurd demand of Ding Ning during his ruling period.

In his heart, there was a very fair weighing scale—it was not too much to give any great rewards to those who had abilities and made contributions to the country.

As the second-generation leader of Shenzhou said, “Black cat or white cat, if it can catch mice, it’s a good cat.” In his mind, Ding Ning was that good cat.

When one’s status reached his level, he would not confine his angle of viewing a problem to a tiny and specific area. Instead, he would oversee the whole picture from a commanding height.

Embarrassed, that big boss closed his mouth. In fact, he was not malicious to Ding Ning, but he thought it was too absurd and was afraid of damaging their reputations if this was spread.

The disagreement between the two people embarrassed the atmosphere on the spot, and the stiff atmosphere made everyone a little depressed.

Chief No. 2 found that this big boss looked a little sullen and sighed inwardly, “No wonder he is ranked the end in the Central Agency. His vision and his view on affairs are not good enough!”

He knew that Chief No. 1 had a tough and straight temper. Afraid that they would have disputes, which were not good for the solidarity of their team, he hurriedly went to ease the situation by saying, “Let’s try the tea Ding Ning brought us. He is the first one who dares to bribe us.”

“This kid is bold! We are going to fight against corruption, and then he dares to offer bribes openly, but we can’t take a few kilos of tea as something so serious!”

“Ha-ha, this is the good wish of the little guy, and I’d like to have a taste of the magic of his bribery.”

“He has excellent medical skills, and I’m a little looking forward to the tea he made himself.”

“Get some water quickly, and let’s make tea and taste it.”

…

These big bosses laughed and joked, breaking the deadlock immediately. Then, the atmosphere was relaxed, and Chief No. 1 and Chief No. 7 smiled and shouted, “Try the tea”.

Since they had reached this level, no ordinary people could compare with them in tolerance. In addition to the issues of principle, some small disputes were inevitable, and no one would take them seriously, but they disagreed and made each other embarrassed, so the deadlock appeared.

Chief No. 2 played tricks, which offered them a way to free themselves from embarrassment. Surely, the atmosphere became harmonious again.

“Good tea!”

Just after the tea was brewed but before they drank it, they smelled the overflowing fragrance of the tea, then their spirits were instantly inspired, and Chief No. 1 praised it.

“I haven’t drunk it yet, but only by smelling it, I can say this is a tea of the highest grade.”

What kind of tea had the big bosses not drunk? But they were not pretending to agree with Chief No. 1 at this moment because that was their true feeling.

Chief No. 2 could not wait to pick up the teacup. Despite the scalding temperature, he took a sip and had an intoxicated expression. “Since ancient times, life should have been happy, and let me enjoy the moment of leisure in this troubled world.”

“Let me have a try!”

Seeing that he was so enchanted that he even began to recite verses, Chief No. 1 also picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.

As a mouthful of tea went down into his stomach, Chief No. 1 closed his eyes and tasted its flavor carefully.

“What do you think?”

The other big bosses did not get the answer from Chief No. 2, so they stared at Chief No. 1 with anticipation, waiting for his comment.

After recollecting the pleasant flavor for a long time carefully, he banged his palm on the table and praised, “It tastes fragrant as it enters the mouth; the fragrance lingers around the teeth and cheeks; it tastes pure and sweet and gives you comfort with a lingering flavor that lasts quite long; it drives your tiredness away as if you are reborn. It’s so amazing.”

The eyes of the other big bosses suddenly brightened. All of them had tried all kinds of teas, but Chief No. 1 had never given such high praise. Suddenly, they picked up the teacups and took a mouthful.

As the tea went down into their stomachs, all of them closed their eyes to savor it, their tiredness then disappeared, and they got a wonderful feeling that they seemed to have been reborn.

“It’s a really good tea. It’s better than any tonic. I even feel like I’m several years younger.”

“Right, I’ve never drunk such a magic tea. It’s not tea, but an elixir.”

“My tiredness has all gone, and I’m full of energy. It’s more comfortable than just having a good sleep.”

“It seems that all my pores have unfolded as if I go to the hot Kang in the coldest time of winter. It’s comfortable!”

“I feel that I am full of energy, like the situation that I was full of energy when I was going to play football at college.”

…

These big bosses kept praising the tea. When they turned again to the few boxes of tea leaves that they had taken less seriously a while ago, their eyes had a light desire. No matter how powerful they were, they were still humans, and no human did not want to live long. Definitely, the Spiritual Emerald Tea, which had the function of clearing the mind and strengthening the physical condition, was more effective than any tonic.

“Well, look at all your mean attitude. Each of you, take away half a kilo, and leave that opened box to me.”

Seeing this, Chief No. 1 felt that it was funny and waved his hand generously, but he muttered in his mind, “Little Ding is too mean and only gave half a kilo to each of us. It is far from enough to drink!

“No, I have to find an opportunity to ask him to bring some more tea. At most, at most, I will give him the approval to have a few more wives.”

Chief No. 2 seemed to have seen through his idea, smiled inwardly, and turned around to call the man with the crew cut hairstyle. “Comrade Luo Zhicheng, are you still with Little Ding now?”

“Yes, Chief!” Luo Zhicheng with the crew cut hairstyle straightened his back instinctively.

“Thank you for your hard work. Now, the organization wants to give you an important task.”

After a dry cough, Chief No. 2 said seriously.

“Chief, please give me your order.”

Subconsciously, Luo Zhicheng looked at Ding Ning from the rear-view mirror and said with a determination of sacrificing himself to finish the task.

“Ahem, ahem, Little Ding, the guy you are driving away now, brought us some tea to taste. It should be called Spiritual Emerald Tea. After drinking it, we think it is very good, and it also has a very good healthcare function. You also know that Chief No. 1 is busy with state affairs and recently has a poor appetite, but he likes this tea very much. Then, you inform him that the Spiritual Emerald Tea will be a special supply for Zhongnanhai in the future, and he must provide 10kg every year … uh, no, he’d better provide 15kg. As for the price, you can negotiate with him. You should know you must finish the task. That’s it. Just go and do it.”

Chief No. 2 hung up the phone after he had hurriedly finished speaking, but he wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead with guilt and giving a foxy smile, muttered, “Is this abusing my power for personal gains? Ha-ha, the reason is that the tea tastes so good and also has the healthcare function! And I also care about the health of the chief!”

After hanging up the phone, Luo Zhicheng looked serious. “This is about the health of the chief. I can’t take it as something ordinary, and I must finish the task nicely.”

He was thinking about how to say it, but a few times, he felt it was a little hard to open his mouth when he was ready and did not know how to bring up the subject. “After all, the chief directly made it a tribute tea without the consent of this man. This is a little out of line!”
