0261 Near hometown, feeling timid (5/5, extra chapter 7 for Alliance Leader Lurenyi)

The plane came to a stop, Zheng Ren opened his phone, first sent a private WeChat message to Xie Yiren, saying he had landed safely. Then he opened the WeChat group and saw a pile of messages; a group of girls were discussing where to welcome Zheng Ren and Su Yun.

In the group, Zheng Ren saw countless hotel names; he had no idea these were actually local hotels in Haicheng.

However, the chat ended an hour ago; presumably the girls had already gathered by then and are now waiting at the airport to pick them up.

Zheng Ren bade farewell to Sun Jia and the other flight attendants, finally returning to Haicheng again.

Breathing the familiar air, the closer he got to the exit, the more nervous Zheng Ren felt.

This is a rather absurd feeling—so-called 'near hometown, feeling timid' is just like this.

While waiting for the luggage, Zheng Ren calmed his emotions; Su Yun, meanwhile, seemed indifferent, holding her phone and chatting with Chu Yan zhi and the others in the group.

Would Xiao Yi Ren give him a hug? Zheng Ren felt torn and anxious as he carried his luggage out of the exit.

The exit of Haicheng Airport cannot compare with those of Di Du and Modu; it's rather small and somewhat shabby.

As soon as he stepped outside, Zheng Ren saw Director Pan standing straight at the blue line nearest the exit, waiting for him.

He gave a habitual smile, but before he could look for Xie Yiren's figure, a black shadow lunged at him.

Director Pan gave Zheng Ren a bear hug, his hearty laugh echoing throughout the hall.

"I knew you could do it, kid!" Director Pan put his arm around Zheng Ren's shoulder, waved at Su Yun, and then directly dragged Zheng Ren away.

"Little Zheng, I saw your interventional surgery; your level has improved tremendously." Director Pan walked and said, "What did I say? I still need to go to Di Du to study."

Zheng Ren responded, and through the gap in Director Pan's arm he faintly saw Xie Yiren's graceful figure. Those few girls were talking and laughing with Su Yun behind them, and Zheng Ren felt the sky dark and his mood terrible.

Being pulled into Director Pan's car, a small Jetta, as soon as he sat down the car body swayed, and Zheng Ren felt as if he'd scraped the undercarriage.

Only after getting in the car did Zheng Ren finally give up his nervous thoughts all the way and tell Director Pan about his experiences going to Di Du.

From the plane, he had encountered a patient's family member with a type 1 aortic dissection aneurysm; the next day thugs injured Doctor Fang; then came the surgery selection, researching a new surgical technique; finally, when everyone had given up, he himself completed the surgery perfectly.

During those days, experiencing them firsthand, Zheng Ren didn't feel anything.

But,

Now,

When he talked about it with Director Pan,

Zheng Ren felt an indescribable feeling.

Is this what growth feels like? Zheng Ren didn't know.

Along the way, Director Pan excitedly said many things to Zheng Ren, and Zheng Ren could feel his heightened excitement.

Instead of returning to Haicheng Shi Yiyuan, Director Pan directly drove the car to a small restaurant.

"Don't let the small size fool you—the food is indeed good." Director Pan laughed, pulled Zheng Ren inside, greeted the boss, and slipped into a private room.

Soon, Su Yun, the Chu Family Sisters, Chang Yue, and Xie Yiren also came in.

As expected, Yang Lei stayed in the Jizhenbingfang, responsible for looking after things.

Finally he saw Xie Yiren, but the private room was small; doing anything then seemed a bit awkward.

Zheng Ren felt helpless.

Director Pan chatted all the way, and everyone was talking and laughing.

Su Yun's words sprayed everywhere; the things Zheng Ren and Director Pan had just described, in her mouth, turned into a thrilling, bizarre, dramatic tale.

Not only had Director Pan, who had heard it once, listened with great interest, but Zheng Ren was also left gaping.

It's truly unbelievable that what Su Yun said would actually be about him and herself.

Su Yun usually isn't like this; could it be that this guy, after being snubbed by the flight attendants on the plane, is trying to unleash his full Charm Value?

That's pretty intense...

While eating and chatting, eventually Su Yun mentioned that after completing the prostate interventional embolization procedure, Zheng Ren had pulled her to go buy gifts for everyone, and everyone was quite surprised.

With Zheng Ren's temperament, it's surprising he could even think of bringing gifts for everyone; really not easy.

"Chief Zheng, what did you buy?" Chu Yan zhi couldn't keep it to herself, and she first asked in a chattering way.

"Um... nothing much." Zheng Ren felt a bit embarrassed, but he still took out his luggage and opened the box.

Chu Yan zhi was already about to dive into the box.

It's not that they were greedy for what Zheng Ren could buy; given his poor state, how much could he spend?

What everyone wondered was how much thought Zheng Ren could actually put into it.

First he took out the wine for Director Pan, who accepted it with a laugh. Yang Lei hadn't come, so Zheng Ren tucked the gift meant for him inside, then brought out the plush toys he'd bought for the four girls.

Everyone was stunned.

It was tens of thousands times more intense than the surprise of seeing Zheng Ren crush a German professor in surgery.

The air in the entire private room was almost solid.

Just this?

Just take this?

Just take this to fool everyone?

Even if fooling everyone were okay, Xie Yiren only got a single plush toy?

Chu Yanran and Chu Yan zhi held the plush toys, unable to stop laughing as they looked at Zheng Ren. Chu Yanran was relatively composed, playing with the toy without speaking, while Chu Yan zhi tossed the toy up and down, wanting to speak several times but being pulled back by Chu Yanran.

Chang Yue, on the other hand, was indifferent, took the plush toy, and merely whispered, 'Childish.'

Xie Yiren's eyes lit up, 'Wow, so pretty.'

A faint white smoke seemed to rise above Su Yun's head.

Would she also refuse to let go if Zheng Ren had simply picked up a random branch and given it to Xie Yiren?

People in love truly lack reason, logic, and sense.

But seeing Xie Yiren's watery eyes sparkling as she looked at the plush toy, Su Yun sighed inwardly; Zheng Ren, that damned fellow, really is lucky.

Zheng Ren took out the plush toy, then hesitated slightly.

"All done, still acting mysterious there. Hurry up and get up, continue eating." Su Yun knew what she had bought with Zheng Ren; she had taken out everything she ought to, yet this guy was still squatting there.

Could it be that he still wants to perform magic?

With his wooden personality, he could buy things, but he wouldn't drag himself along. On the streets of Di Du, who knows how many times he's mocked Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren suddenly stood up, turned around in an instant, his expression solemn, as if facing an emergency rescue.

The crowd's jovial chatter came to an abrupt halt.

In the emergency ward, in the operating room, once Zheng Ren emanates this aura……

"Yi Ren, this is for you." Zheng Ren said with a determined expression.
