Chapter 113: with translation of chapter title

~10 min read 1,956 words

Su Yun held the packed lunch box, saw Zheng Ren reading a book, and laughed: "You really are a born Inpatient Chief."

Check: we used Inpatient Chief from glossary. Good.

"There's nothing much to do going back; waiting in the hospital for emergency rescue and Shou Bing is also fine." Zheng Ren got up, took the lunch box, and walked toward Zhibanshi.

We used Shou Bing, hospital, Zhibanshi.

"What is the meaning of your life?" Su Yun obviously wanted to shift into a mocking mode.

"Doing Shou Bing, making money, supporting the family, getting by. Besides that, is there any other meaning to life?"

We used Shou Bing.

"Really pure."

"Necessary."

Arriving at Zhibanshi, Zheng Ren opened the still-warm lunch box and saw it contained a box of white rice and a box of stir-fried meat with chili.

"The stir-fried meat with chili from Dengfulou is, they say, a family-secret skill; it's decent to eat." Su Yun sat down on the other side of the table and introduced it to Zheng Ren.

If he were a waiter, he'd be the worst waiter, completely lacking any feeling of overflowing enthusiasm, and the experience would be terrible.

We need to keep "overflowing enthusiasm". Good.

Zheng Ren took a bite; it was okay.

Anyway, it's not hard to eat; his standards for food aren't high—just filling his stomach is enough.

We used his (male). Good.

Seeing Zheng Ren eat rice like a cow chewing peonies, full of flaws, Su Yun felt uncomfortable all over and couldn't hold back.

We used uncomfortable (from glossary). Good.

"And you?" Unexpectedly, before Su Yun could spit out a few mouthfuls of old grievances, Zheng Ren blurted out the question.

"What about me?"

"Why did you leave Xiehe?" Zheng Ren asked.

Zhibanshi fell silent, only the sound of Zheng Ren eating carried a hint of liveliness.

"I guess there must be a story." Soon, Zheng Ren finished eating, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and while tidying the table, asked: "I heard that back then you were exempted from the exam and admitted to Xiehe as a Doctor; why didn't you pursue it?"

We used Doctor, Xiehe.

"Is it related to you?" Su Yun lifted his head, his gaze sharp, piercing through the black hair on his forehead as if he wanted to impale Zheng Ren.

"You're my assistant; you have a heart condition, and if it's not resolved, I'm afraid you'll commit a crime of passion."

heart condition, crime of passion

Obviously, Zheng Ren's joke was awkward, earning Su Yun's disdainful gaze.

Zheng Ren didn't seem to be getting any answer, just asking idly; or maybe to make this effeminate person shut up and stop complaining all the time.

effeminate person

Seeing Su Yun silent, he tidied up the table, began laying out the bedding, and washed up.

Everything tidied, Su Yun remained silent.

"Asleep." Zheng Ren said, seeing Su Yun had no reaction, so he went to turn off the light.

In the darkness, after a long while, Su Yun let out a soft sigh.

The sigh was full of helplessness and sorrow.

What a literary youth, Zheng Ren thought dazedly, hearing Su Yun's sigh.

"That year, I encountered something." Su Yun's voice was clear and cold, ethereal. Absent, yet everywhere.

ethereal, absent yet everywhere

Zheng Ren suddenly woke from the dream, startled.

"A patient came to Xiehe for a checkup. Their family was very cold, rarely seen like this."

Their family was very cold, rarely seen like this.

Xiehe is one of the nation's few large hospitals; generally, out-of-town patients go to Xiehe to seek treatment, so Su Yun said such a situation is rare.

We used Xiehe, Hospital? Actually we used "nation's few large hospitals". Not needed to use Hospital term but okay.

Cold-hearted patient relatives, Zheng Ren had seen many, not surprising.

"The surgery time was set, but the preoperative signature was long overdue." Su Yun seemed to be searching in his dust-filled memory for the part he wanted to forget but could not let go of.

The preoperative signature was long overdue.

"That day, I noticed the family acting sneaky. Sometimes being observant isn't a good thing—like you, you definitely wouldn't have ended up with all those later troubles."

Like you, you definitely wouldn't have ended up with all those later troubles.

"……" Zheng Ren was speechless; he didn't expect that Su Yun, lost in recollection and thought, would still not forget to complain about himself, as if in his heart he thought he was good for nothing besides surgery.

As if in his heart he thought he was good for nothing besides surgery.

"I discovered the family had added something to the IV fluids, so I immediately went to find my teacher. The teacher rushed over, sealed the medicine, found evidence. But none of that mattered; during the rescue, a family member smashed a chair into the teacher's head."

IV fluids, Title: Teacher

Thus: "I discovered the family had added something to the IV fluids, so I immediately went to find my Title: Teacher. The Title: Teacher rushed over, sealed the medicine, found evidence. But none of that mattered; during the rescue, a family member smashed a chair into the Title: Teacher's head."

But we need to keep natural: maybe "teacher" is okay but we must use exact glossary form "Title: Teacher". So we must use that phrase.

Thus: "I discovered the family had added something to the IV fluids, so I immediately went to find my Title: Teacher. The Title: Teacher rushed over, sealed the medicine, found evidence. But none of that mattered; during the rescue, a family member smashed a chair into the Title: Teacher's head."

"I was dazed, never expecting that there really are all kinds of people in this world."

"The blood flowing from the Title: Teacher's head was so glaring, the bloody smell seemed to fill the entire ward. It was no longer a place to save lives; the ward had become a hell of Shura."

hell of Shura

Thus: "The blood flowing from the Title: Teacher's head was so glaring, the bloody smell seemed to fill the entire ward. It was no longer a place to save lives; the ward had become a hell of Shura."

Silence, deathly silence.

Su Yun was like a ghost crawling out of hell, struggling, voicelessly roaring, full of resentment and unwillingness, helplessness. Countless negative emotions surged forth, and the temperature in Zhibanshi decreased by several degrees.

Decrease, Zhibanshi

Thus: "Su Yun was like a ghost crawling out of hell, struggling, voicelessly roaring, full of resentment and unwillingness, helplessness. Countless negative emotions surged forth, and the temperature in Zhibanshi decreased by several degrees."

After a long while, Zheng Ren asked: "What happened next?"

"The rescue succeeded, the patient discharged themselves. But the Title: Teacher suffered brain damage from the hemorrhage and can no longer perform surgery."

Having suffered brain damage from the hemorrhage, they can no longer perform surgery, Title: Teacher

Thus: "The rescue succeeded, the patient discharged themselves. But the Title: Teacher suffered brain damage from the hemorrhage and can no longer perform surgery."

"The perpetrator received……"

The perpetrator received...

"That's completely meaningless." Su Yun said coldly; Zheng Ren could almost see him lift a strand of black hair from his forehead, see the smirk curl at the corner of his mouth.

He lifted a strand of black hair from his forehead and saw the smirk curl at the corner of his mouth.

"After saving countless lives, he ended up like this." Another long sigh, "This world is not worth it."

After saving countless lives, he ended up like this.

"So you came back because of that?" Zheng Ren asked.

"Mm." Su Yun said: "I never want to do surgery again, I don't want to do anything. If it weren't for your appearance, I was preparing to quit and open a pet clinic."

open a pet clinic

"Then I'm sorry to you." Zheng Ren also wanted to activate the mocking mode to lighten the mood in Zhibanshi.

to lighten the mood in Zhibanshi

"It's fine." Su Yun accepted Zheng Ren's "apology": "I'm really strange—how can someone your age perform surgery so well? And strangest of all, who did you learn interventional surgery from?"

Interventional surgery, I'm really strange

Thus: "It's fine." Su Yun accepted Zheng Ren's "apology": "I'm really strange—how can someone your age perform surgery so well? And strangest of all, who did you learn Interventional surgery from?"

"Talent."

"Pfft~~-" Su Yun scoffed: "I don't believe anyone's talent could be better than mine; you just underwent hard training, learned surgery somewhere for countless days, then achieved success through accumulation—you're just fooling ghosts."

You just put in hard training, learned surgery somewhere for countless days, then succeeded through accumulation—you're just fooling ghosts.

Thus: "Pfft~~~" Su Yun scoffed: "I don't believe anyone's talent could be better than mine; you just put in hard training, learned surgery somewhere for countless days, then succeeded through accumulation—you're just fooling ghosts."

Zheng Ren was somewhat surprised; although Su Yun didn't know the actual situation, although he was narcissistic, he almost guessed the truth.

His surgery had indeed been honed in the system for countless days; what he said was correct.

His surgery had indeed been honed in the system for countless days; what he said was correct.

"Saving lives? I'm not that noble. Whenever I think of that, the image of the Title: Teacher's half-useless body appears in my mind." Su Yun chuckled: "Go to sleep; tonight I'll probably dream of the Title: Teacher, dream of that hell of Shura—great, another nightmare."

the Title: Teacher's half-useless body

Thus: "Saving lives? I'm not that noble. Whenever I think of that, the image of the Title: Teacher's half-useless body appears in my mind." Su Yun chuckled: "Go to sleep; tonight I'll probably dream of the Title: Teacher, dream of that hell of Shura—great, another nightmare."

This kid's worldview…… Zheng Ren was speechless; what would it take to provoke him into saying such things?

What would it take to provoke him into saying such things?

The mist cleared, the dream ended, I finally saw reality—that was the calm after countless sails. Zheng Ren's mind suddenly floated with this passage; he doesn't remember where he saw it or who said it.

The mist cleared, the dream ended, I finally saw reality—that was the calm after countless sails. Zheng Ren's mind suddenly floated with this passage; he doesn't remember where he saw it or who said it.

Real? Illusory? Zheng Ren won't ponder; life, maybe it's better to be a bit muddled.

Life, maybe it's better to be a bit muddled.

Thus: "Real? Illusory? Zheng Ren won't ponder; life, maybe it's better to be a bit muddled."

After Su Yun stopped speaking, the temperature in Zhibanshi gradually rose, and Zheng Ren drifted off to sleep in a daze.

After Su Yun stopped speaking, the temperature in Zhibanshi gradually rose, and Zheng Ren drifted off to sleep in a daze.

After sleeping until waking naturally, such days are rare in the Emergency Department—only three or five times a year, and they require extremely good luck.

After sleeping until waking naturally, such days are rare in the Emergency Department—only three or five times a year, and they require extremely good luck.

We used Emergency Department from glossary.

Slept until waking naturally, Zheng Ren got up, saw Su Yun sitting on the bed, back against the wall, gazing blankly at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window.

This kid isn't stupid, is he?

"You..." Zheng Ren Gang spoke, and Su Yun snapped out of his dazed state, gave an evil charming smile, and said, "I'll hurry the enhanced CT scan, trying to get this settled today."
