The wife firmly demanded divorce from her husband, citing his failure to protect her from his domineering mother's abuses and financial control. The mother cursed the wife and staged a fake suicide attempt, but the husband pursued his departing wife and child, abandoning her to wail alone. Zhou Can reflected on the dangers of blind filial piety before resuming patient care, where his grasping technique advanced to chief physician level. Su Qianqian later voiced concern over his skipped meal due to prioritizing patients.

Su Qianqian noticed Zhou Can's inability to eat meals on schedule, filling her with deep concern.

"Oh, by the way, I visited your hospital today for another kidney check. Results aren't ready yet, but I sense a huge improvement—far more ease and comfort than before. Fingers crossed for positive news."

She had followed that ancient formula and finished twelve full courses just last week.

To ensure precision, she delayed the test by an additional week.

"Relax, it'll turn out great for sure. Should any small problems linger, we'll simply explore more options."

Zhou Can remained ever careful in placing faith in Chinese medicine's power.

This stemmed largely from Western medicine's view of kidney failure as irreversible.

Once it strikes, recovery proves impossible.

Yet, symptoms and states vary widely among kidney patients. Mr. Chen Guoli held strong optimism for Su Qianqian's full recovery.

Post-dinner, Zhou Can dashed straight to Cardiothoracic Surgery.

Director Xue Yan faced her toughest trial yet. Failure to save the patient could tarnish the department's esteemed name.

He had barely stepped in when Xue Yan, abandoning the surgery to Director Le, hurried over to confer with Zhou Can on the myocardial infarction and coronary heart disease case.

"Zhou Can, truly sorry to drag you here for a consult amid your packed schedule."

Despite the time elapsed, Xue Yan still harbored genuine remorse upon seeing Zhou Can.

Guilt welled up sincerely from within her.

"Sister Yan, no need for such formality! Let's dive into the patient's exam reports first."

Zhou Can had no plans to examine the patient directly.

In such consultations, reviewing reports typically suffices.

Cardiovascular angiography results, in particular, vividly reveal blockage severity and precise locations in the patient's vessels.

"Everything's set up in the office already."

She guided Zhou Can there. Remarkably, neither bothered shutting the door.

"The patient's three right coronary arteries stand fully obstructed. Tiny collateral vessels now sustain his blood flow. Yet his coronary state exceeds our worst fears."

Xue Yan passed the images to Zhou Can for close scrutiny.

Upon review, Zhou Can felt chills for the patient's plight.

Normally, a single fully blocked vessel triggers angina or localized infarction. At minimum, myocardial blood supply drops, impairing contraction strength.

Chest tightness and quick exhaustion would plague the sufferer.

Three total blockages, and the patient endures—a sheer wonder of vitality.

Still, the body's marvels never cease.

Its regenerative prowess defies imagination.

Once this patient's trio of coronaries clogged completely, surrounding micro-vessels heroically assumed the supply role.

Through expansion and development, they linked up to the aorta.

Thus, survival persists against all odds.

Zhou Can, veteran of countless infarction cases, still sweated coldly over this one.

"Before angiography confirmed it, my diagnostic instincts suggested interventional surgery with stenting to reopen vessels. Never dreamed all three would seal shut, propped by those collaterals. Bypass with artificial grafts feels like the final desperate move—what's your take now?"

Director Xue Yan explained.
