Master Chen, who was standing to the side, also noticed something was amiss and immediately called out, "Teacher... Teacher..."
After being called twice, Xia Wuqie finally snapped out of his thoughts.
"Oh, oh."
Xia Wuqie collected himself and gave an embarrassed smile. "My apologies, I was rude. It is a pleasure to meet you, General Zhao."
"I have long heard of Doctor Xia's fame. Seeing you today has fulfilled one of my wishes," Zhao Feng said with a smile, his words tinged with formal courtesy.
"You are too kind, General Zhao. In fact, I am the one who has long heard of your name. To meet you today is what truly fulfills a wish of mine."
"When I first heard about the Suturing Skill and disinfection methods from Master Chen, it was like hearing a divine revelation," Xia Wuqie said with a chuckle, stroking his beard, his gaze holding the kind of admiration one has for a promising junior.
