Just when the Medical University forum was abuzz with ceaseless debates about a scandal involving Shen Qiang, the beautiful teacher, and Ji Liangchuan.

The beautiful teacher Ju Yang, who had hailed a taxi, was rushing to the city with Shen Qiang and Xiu Ju.

It happened to be noon, and the roads were not congested.

The journey of several dozen kilometers took only about half an hour to complete.

When the taxi stopped, and the three of them got out, Shen Qiang was shocked to find that they had arrived at the Medical University Affiliated Women's and Children's Health Hospital.

This hospital mainly catered to women and infants.

Before even entering, Shen Qiang saw many women with children and numerous pregnant women.

Such a sight slightly surprised Shen Qiang, prompting him to ask in astonishment, "Teacher Ju Yang, why have you brought us here?"

Teacher Ju Yang said seriously, "Of course, it is to save people. Here, there are many babies between 0 to 6 months old with congenital lactose intolerance who need your treatment. You can do it, right?"

Looking at the beautiful teacher walking up the stairs ahead of him, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "It's not a problem, but this isn't the Tumor Surgery department of the Medical University Affiliated hospital, and I don't have the qualifications to practice medicine here."

The beautiful teacher Ju Yang chuckled, "Don't worry, the chief doctor of the infant gastroenterology department here is our senior brother; he also graduated from the Medical University postgraduate school, is a very nice, refined, and excellent person, so he will agree to let you help."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang felt somewhat helpless.

Following the beautiful teacher Ju Yang upstairs, they arrived at the infant gastroenterology inpatient department.

Just as they reached the nurse's station in the middle of the floor, Shen Qiang immediately saw a man with a stubble, looking very tired, anxiously asking Teacher Ju Yang, "Hello, Teacher Ju Yang. When you came here the day before yesterday, you mentioned that the new drug you're researching can cure my son. Did you bring the medicine this time?"

Ju Yang smiled faintly and said, "I didn't bring the medicine, but I've brought the main person in charge of the drug's development. He is very capable, and he is here this time to help you."

Upon hearing this, the anxious middle-aged man was stunned for a moment before he excitedly grabbed Shen Qiang and said, "Doctor, expert, leader, please go and save my son. He was just born fifteen days ago, and gets diarrhea whenever he drinks milk. Now he stays alive only on IVs and doesn't even have the strength to open his eyes. I beg you, please go and see him."

Shen Qiang nodded and said, "Alright, I—"

"Come quickly, it's right this way." The man dragged Shen Qiang along.

Shen Qiang was helpless, and the beautiful teacher Ju Yang was too, but they could only follow.

And upon entering the ward.

Shen Qiang was stunned.

It was an ordinary room with three hospital beds, each bearing a gaunt, clearly malnourished baby with a disproportionately large head and tiny body, looking listless.

Shen Qiang activated his "Observation Skill" and after observing, he immediately confirmed that their malnutrition was indeed due to congenital lactose intolerance.

"It can be treated," Shen Qiang said confidently. "But we'll need permission from the hospital. If all goes well, we can administer the drug this afternoon. After taking the medicine, in about five minutes, they should be able to consume breast milk, formula, and even boiled cow's milk normally."

In an instant, the eyes of the three pediatric patients' families lit up, filled with surprise and joy.

However, the beautiful teacher Ju Yang said before they could ask various questions, "Please be patient, everyone. We still need to meet with the patient's attending physician. We can consider treatment options only after obtaining his consent."

With that, the beautiful teacher, dragged Shen Qiang out of the ward.

As they walked through the corridor, passing by the intensive care units, Shen Qiang saw many children in incubators, receiving oxygen and IV fluids.

"Almost all patients in this area suffer from severe lactose intolerance. The vast majority have congenital lactase deficiency, while a portion derives from secondary lactase deficiency caused by enteritis. They are too young to eat solid foods or absorb dairy products, leading to various problems due to malnutrition. If they don't receive effective treatment promptly, they will miss the first critical growth spurt of their lives."

Looking at their emaciated figures.

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Actually, you don't need to use them to evoke my sympathy. I will perfect my Thermophilic Streptococcus."

The beautiful teacher, with a smile, said, "I know. You just wouldn't know unless you come here. For these families, your Thermophilic Streptococcus means everything. It means that if you can successfully cure them, you will be their savior, their God, their Buddha."

"Because of you, they can have a healthy baby, they can live happily ever after. And among these babies, many will go on to study, work, fall in love, play online games, and read novels, just like you."

"But if they are not cured, many will pass away prematurely. Even if a few lucky ones survive, because they miss the first developmental phase of life, their brains and bodies will develop slowly, and even as grown-ups, they'll be considered failures."

"Their families will be in constant tears. They won't be able to work, study, fall in love, marry, or have children like normal people."

Shen Qiang sighed helplessly, speaking impatiently, "I've said before, I'll save them. It's simple for me."

The beautiful teacher Ju Yang smiled with relief and praised, "I knew it; you're not a cold-hearted person."

After asking at the nurse's station, the beautiful teacher Ju Yang, along with Shen Qiang and Xiu Ju, went to the office of the digestive medicine doctor and knocked on the door.

After hearing "come in."

The three of them pushed the door and entered.

Shen Qiang immediately spotted a doctor who appeared to be in his thirties sitting behind the desk, looking dignified and scholarly with glasses, precisely as the beautiful teacher had described.

Seeing it was the beautiful teacher Ju Yang.

His eyes lit up, and he got up excitedly, saying, "Ju Yang, you're here! Why didn't you call ahead? Haven't had lunch yet, right? Come on, there's a nice place just off campus. Let's talk there."

Hearing this, the beautiful teacher laughed, "Pan, my senior, my visit this time isn't for a meal. I'm here on business, which also happens to be a favor to you."

The bespectacled man smiled and said, "Oh? Then let's hear it. You know, ever since our school days, I've been powerless before you, our campus beauty and junior. It's the same now. If there's any way I can help, just say the word, and I'll be at your service."

With a smile, the beautiful teacher pulled Shen Qiang over and introduced him warmly, "Senior Pan, this is our junior, Shen Qiang, a doctor of Tumor Surgery affiliated with the Medical University, currently enrolled in the Medical University's graduate school and my teaching assistant. The Thermophilic Streptococcus I mentioned to you last time was discovered by him. So we are here to use his Thermophilic Streptococcus to help a few young patients get better sooner."

Listening to the beautiful teacher's introduction, Shen Qiang extended his hand to Dr. Pan with a smile, saying politely, "Hello, Senior Pan."

But just then, as he saw the beautiful teacher Ju Yang affectionately holding Shen Qiang's left arm, the bespectacled Dr. Pan's enthusiasm in his eyes vanished instantly. He didn't shake Shen Qiang's hand and coldly sat back down, saying bluntly, "No! There's no room for discussion."
