Chapter 2044: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,272 words

"Sunrise?" Xie Yiren didn't press the accelerator, moving forward at speed.

He tilted his head, looking at Zheng Ren's eyes full of doubt.

Zheng Ren instantly felt timid; he felt Xie Yiren's gaze saw through his Inner Mind. Even he had an illusion that Xie Yiren's gaze saw through time and space, seeing Su Yun and himself receiving personal instruction.

"Then let's just go home." Zheng Ren said embarrassedly.

What Su Yun said didn't match his actual situation at all; from now on he wouldn't listen to him anymore.

"Pfft~" Xie Yiren laughed, "Just asking casually, Zheng Lao Ban, why are you so interested today?"

Xie Yiren asked, imitating Lin Ge's tone of voice.

"……" Zheng Ren was completely dumbfounded.

For a technical dog, when Zheng Ren now watches videos and looks at medical records, the confidence emanating from deep within his Inner Mind is already enough to make others stare in amazement.

But when facing Xiao Yi Ren, thinking of the pitch-black seaside and waiting for sunrise together with Xiao Yi Ren, Zheng Ren felt infinite anticipation yet also an inexplicable feeling of homesickness and timidity.

His emotions were complex, hard to put into words.

Actually, it's mainly because he's timid, so he didn't put any skill points into this Skill Tree.

"It's definitely that Zheng Lao Ban says wherever he says to go, we go." Xie Yiren pulled the car over to the side of the road, took out his phone and asked, "It's really a surprise."

"……"

Zheng Ren truly didn't know how to respond, could only lower his head embarrassedly.

"Zheng Ren, where are you planning to go to see the sea and watch the sunrise?" Xie Yiren asked.

"I don't know......"

Zheng Ren felt he was stupid to death; the brain capable of precise image reconstruction crashed outright, a blank slate.

Su Yun was the same, not leaving himself any preparation time at all.

"Then I'll just pick one at random." Xie Yiren said with a smile, "The surprises in life are really surprising; I'm really looking forward to it."

Hearing Xie Yiren say that, Zheng Ren's thumping heart gradually calmed down.

"Has the pressure been too great lately?" Xie Yiren found a spot and started the navigation.

When Zheng Ren heard the mechanical female voice say there were still 290 kilometers to the destination, about 3 hours and 35 Minutes away, he estimated the time.

Still need to wait a bit.

"Hey, I'm asking you a question." Xie Yiren clipped the phone to the left side of the driver's mount, looked at the navigation and said.

"What?" Zheng Ren panicked, realizing one mistake after another was leading him into an endless abyss.

He felt like he was standing beside an Operating table, facing a patient he had no idea how to treat. Helpless, he wanted to cry. Watching the blood pressure drop steadily, he imagined the family outside wailing.

This feeling is something no doctor wants to face.

In short, at that moment, all of Zheng Ren's negative emotions surged forth at once.

"Are you okay?" Xie Yiren reached out and patted Zheng Ren's head.

Not hot, and during the Afternoon Shou Bing there was nothing abnormal either.

"It's fine." Zheng Ren grasped Xiao Yi Ren's hand, his voice a little hoarse.

"It's just to watch the sunrise; why do I feel like you have something on your mind?" Xie Yiren asked doubtfully.

"Um……" Zheng Ren hesitated, then said, "Isn't it because Uncle Ning is coming back? That's why I'm worried."

"Silly." Xie Yiren smiled and started driving according to the navigation, "My dad coming back is just that; nothing to worry about. I thought there might be something wrong with the Afternoon Shou Bing, but no matter how I think about it, it's fine."

"The Shou Bing is definitely fine." As soon as he said that, Zheng Ren felt energized, "The combined surgical and interventional approach, I'm getting more and more proficient."

"Oh?" Xie Yiren saw Zheng Ren speaking enthusiastically about the Shou Bing, smiled slightly, and continued.

"Today's second Shou Bing, whether in guidelines or case reports, there's no similar Shou Bing approach. I later told Quan Xiaocao, let's organize the Shou Bing, then find Su Yun to revise it, and it will definitely be a case report for 《Xin Ying Ge Lan》."

As soon as Shou Bing was mentioned, Zheng Ren immediately felt energized.

His hands weren't cold anymore, his speech was smooth, and his whole person radiated vigor.

He seemed like a different person.

"Ha, I knew it!" Xie Yiren laughed, "I'd made all the preparations, I wore three layers of masks and sprayed perfume, preparing to battle twenty years of accumulated feces for a few hours. I didn't smell anything at all; I thought it was a new surgical technique that's come out in recent years."

"I figured it out myself, impressive, right?" Zheng Ren said proudly.

Only in front of Xie Yiren does Zheng Ren reveal his truest emotions.

The previous inexplicable awkward atmosphere was gone; Zheng Ren gently rubbed Xiao Yi Ren's right hand with his left hand, the feel was really nice……

The car moved forward in the darkness, the two of them had endless talk.

They chatted lightly. As long as they didn't talk about Shou Bing and medicine, Xie Yiren always spoke more while Zheng Ren spoke little.

However, Zheng Ren enjoyed it; as long as he was with Xiao Yi Ren, any topic made him happy.

With the mechanical female voice constantly interjecting, reporting how far the destination was, Zheng Ren also gradually developed some anticipation.

But this anticipation was completely different from what Su Yun had said; Zheng Ren held Xiao Yi Ren's hand, feeling his heart full of happiness, peace and joy, as if he possessed the whole world.

The distance gradually shortened, but Zheng Ren no longer cared exactly when they would arrive.

The process on the road was more important than the result; he really enjoyed this moment's warmth.

But as they drove along, there were many cars on the highway.

Besides those logistics and freight trucks, there were also many private cars.

"Why are there so many cars?" Zheng Ren asked, this was different from what he had imagined.

"I don't know." Xie Yiren said, "Maybe everyone is just busy with life."

That's true, what Xiao Yi Ren said made sense; Zheng Ren smiled.

The car was going slow, taking an hour longer than the system's estimated time. It wasn't rushing to do Shou Bing, so there was no hurry.

Upon reaching the location indicated by the navigation, Zheng Ren suddenly saw ahead a bright area with many cars, several bonfires, and people's shadows swaying around the fires.

"Where is this?" Zheng Ren asked doubtfully.

"I don't know either, I just searched a bit for a place to watch the sunrise by the sea, and then the navigation came." Xie Yiren was also very puzzled.

This is again something different from what I imagined.

It's not a holiday, so theoretically there shouldn't be many people.

But here… it looks like a major scenic spot during the May Day or National Day long holidays, vaguely still bustling with prosperity.

Just saying, Su Yun is unreliable!

Zheng Ren muttered to himself, "What midnight quiet? This place is livelier than the community hospital." At the very least, patients and their families are asleep in the middle of the night; no one would be out playing at that hour.

"Let's go~" Xie Yiren didn't mind, she glanced at the weather forecast: "Partly sunny turning cloudy, hoping there won't be clouds to spoil the sunrise."
