Wang Jian didn't rush in to see his teacher. Instead, he chatted with Song Tianran to catch up on what had happened while he was away.
Teacher Song's illness had worsened since last year. Despite resting this year, there hadn't been much of a turnaround, a clear sign that this wasn't a recent affliction.
Wang Jian believed that with Teacher Song Yijin's Medical Skills, it was impossible for him not to have known the risk.
The sole reason he had persisted until last year was simply that the old man wanted to stay at the school.
As he considered this, Wang Jian also remembered that Teacher Song Yijin had resigned from his hospital position the year before last to teach full-time.
Now, it seemed likely that Teacher Song had known about his condition for some time and had worried he might collapse in the hospital, harming a patient.
