“Alright,” Joseph replied casually.With that, Fiona took the lead, and Joseph followed after her.Fiona’s residence was only a few steps away from old Mr. Cooper’s recovery room, so they arrived almost at once.“The old gentleman’s condition should be quite good by now, shouldn’t it?” Joseph asked offhandedly.“He can bathe on his own now,” Fiona replied with a soft smile.“His walking still isn’t steady, but he can manage. After walking for a while, he just needs to rest.”“For safety, I’ve arranged for some attendants to stay close to him.”“That means his recovery is going very well,” Joseph said thoughtfully.“The speed of his recovery far exceeds my expectations.”“It’s largely thanks to his strong physical foundation. For most people, after such a severe injury, recovery itself would be difficult.”“Grandpa’s constitution is one thing,” Fiona said sincerely,“but more importantly, it’s because of you. With any other doctor, the results wouldn’t have been nearly this good.”Jose

“Sure. I’ll need some paper and a pen,” Joseph said readily.“Waiter, could we borrow some paper and a pen?” Lincoln Myers called out toward the door of the private room.A moment later, the waiter came in, and before long, Lincoln Myers had the requested items.Joseph took the paper and pen and immediately began writing.“Professor Wilson really does write prescriptions as effortlessly as breathing,” Malcolm Gray remarked, watching Joseph’s pen fly across the page.“How many medicinal materials and formulas must you have memorized?”“Traditional medicine—its materials, properties, principles, and formulas—is extremely complex,” Joseph replied as he wrote.“Remembering all of it took a great deal of time.”“And I still review it periodically. Otherwise, things fade.”“Fortunately, much of it follows internal logic and structure. Once you grasp those patterns, memorization becomes far less daunting.”“Professor Wilson, who is this prescription for?” Lincoln Myers asked curiously.“Judg

“The president is far too kind,” Joseph replied politely.After that, the four of them ate and chatted at the same time, their conversation drifting between work and everyday life—though work-related topics clearly dominated.Before they realized it, more than half an hour had passed, and everyone was more or less satisfied with both food and drink.“Professor Wilson, old Myers,” Geoffrey Harris said with a chuckle,“I never imagined the two of you would actually turn hostility into harmony.”“Oh, that’s nothing,” Lincoln Myers waved it off.“I, Lincoln Myers, have only ever respected people who are truly better than me.”“Professor Wilson genuinely has real ability.”“Whether it’s professional competence or personal integrity, it’s all plain for everyone to see.”“I can’t very well let my own prejudices blind me to someone else’s strengths, can I?”“Don’t you agree, President?”“It’s a good thing you’ve come to this understanding,” Geoffrey Harris said approvingly.“To be honest, I d

“What nonsense are you talking about? Things aren’t nearly that simple,” Joseph said, his face flushing slightly.“But what if it really is that simple?” Mason Alvarez teased with a grin.“What—did your conscience suddenly wake up? Afraid you’d be letting us down?”“There is some pressure, I’ll admit,” Joseph replied honestly.“Hehe, no need to feel pressured,” Mason Alvarez said cheerfully.“From now on, the girl and I will keep a very tight rein on you. No more flirting around for you.”Hearing this, Joseph was left speechless. It wasn’t that he had ever intended things to turn out this way, but life had a way of unfolding through chance and coincidence. Many things were simply beyond the control of any one person.The two chatted casually along the way, and before they realized it, they were already home.No sooner had they arrived than Joseph received a message from Lincoln Myers.“Professor Wilson, the place is set. I’m sending you the location.”A moment later, a location pin ca

“I promised the two of them earlier, so of course I’ll help,” Joseph said calmly.“I’ve just been rather busy lately and didn’t manage to get around to it.”“But this matter itself isn’t particularly complicated—just a couple of prescriptions and some proper conditioning should do.”Hearing this, Joseph spoke with complete confidence.“So it’s that simple?”Lincoln Myers and Malcolm Gray exchanged glances, both clearly pleased by what they saw in each other’s eyes.“Well, simple and not simple at the same time,” Joseph continued.“The key lies in the prescription—one that only I have.”“But a formula on paper is lifeless. I need to see your individual conditions and make adjustments, so I can’t prescribe anything just yet.”“Then how about we set another time,” Lincoln Myers suggested. “You can take a proper look at the two of us.”“That works,” Joseph agreed without hesitation.“How about tomorrow at noon? Professor Wilson, are you free?” Lincoln Myers proposed.“Professor Gray and I

The professors, senior faculty, and university executives formed small groups as they made their way toward the hotel together.The hotel was not far from campus—no more than a two-minute walk.Soon, Joseph and the others entered the banquet hall, a venue spacious enough to accommodate two to three hundred guests.The gathering itself was not meant to be particularly formal. After Geoffrey Harris delivered a few brief remarks from the stage, the banquet was officially underway.During the meal, Joseph found himself the target of countless toasts, all of which he returned in kind.Fortunately, his tolerance for alcohol was fairly solid—otherwise, he might already have been passed out by now.“Professor Alvarez, you might have to drive later.”“You haven’t been drinking, have you?”Joseph asked Mason Alvarez quietly at his side.“I haven’t. I don’t care for hard liquor—red wine is fine, but that’s it.”“I’ll drive later, don’t worry.”“But you should still watch yourself. Don’t drink to
