Chapter 2138: Old memories, new beginnings

Old memories, new beginnings.

October, smoothly concluded.

The monthly votes came in second, exceeding expectations. Although our earlier goal was top three, it was just a shout to cheer ourselves up.

What's the difference between a life without pursuit or dreams and a salted fish?

Thanks to all you readers for your support, especially on the seventh day when red packets flew everywhere—I'm truly moved.

This month I really gave it my all. By the sixth, I felt the pace picking up; if it continued, I'd break, so I decisively told everyone I'd slowly make up the missing chapters.

Fortunately, after a month, the monthly votes and updates stayed in sync. I added 146 chapters, nearly 300,000 words, essentially producing an extra month's worth.

I'm happy whenever there's a request, though I'm tired. I hope you all enjoy reading.

Those who worry about my health, fearing the old geezer might drop dead, can rest assured—I'm holding up fine.

I just focused wholeheartedly on one thing, with no entertainment or games. I got enough sleep—eight hours—and recently started swimming again.

Being able to devote oneself fully to a task leaves memories even in old age—that's pretty cool.

Intracardiac intervention surgery was first performed in Asia at a major tertiary hospital in Modu. Domestic cases also exist where European doctors were invited to do it, and this surgery is being actively promoted.

But we don't know how far off widespread adoption is, after all Zheng Lao Ban is cheating.

We've now reached the stage of carving patterns on stone; even a hypertension case must be written with flourish, please take note, the old geezer is truly earnest.

October's monthly votes total 70,035; today we did ten updates, so the owed chapters should be just 35 votes left. Tomorrow I'll add another chapter, settling the account. Smiley face—that's which reader in the QQ group asked if I dared to start extra updates at the month's start, showing teeth.

Not only did I dare, I dared to add extra updates during the double period. In the end it was perfect—just a 35‑vote gap, minuscule enough to ignore.

It's November now, and I still have to loudly call for monthly votes.

I won't let up—at least not on my end. I'll strive to refine the cases, putting in full effort to make them even more exciting.

Here, I ask you readers to do one thing: give the characters a like each day, which is still very important.

The 2000 limit is unattainable. Zheng Lao Ban and Xiao Yi Ren can have their birthdays, Yun Ge'er is close to getting a chibi avatar, and for the other characters… avatars are important, as Xiao Lu said.

I hear there will be an event after the finish, a lottery, with prizes being chibi postcards of Zheng Lao Ban, Xie Yiren, Su Yun, and Chang Yue.

Just give a like, just give a like; if you can, watch the video and give double likes; if not, please raise your hand and give a heart~~~

Bow, 90 degrees.

November 6, Zheng Lao Ban's birthday—so happy.

Finally, I still need to shout three times,
