Chapter 2830: with translation of chapter title

"Doctor Zheng, I really can't describe how I feel right now." Johannes Mandi and Zheng Ren, who had just walked out of the operating room, said.

"Huh?" Zheng Ren glanced at Mandi and gave a slight smile.

"You're definitely at Nobel Prize level—no wonder you're a tenured professor at Johns Hopkins and the youngest tenured professor in history." Johannes Mandi praised.

Zheng Ren wasn't very interested in that praise.

It had no nutrition, no substance.

"Boss, awesome!" Professor Rudolf Wagner came out of the operating room, happily gave a thumbs-up to praise his own boss.

Simple and straightforward, that hearty flavor seemed to assimilate even Bota Private Hospital; Zheng Ren felt as if he were back at Haicheng Shi Yiyuan.

"Fugui'er, go back to room 912 to do the surgery." Su Yun joked with the professor, smiling.

The professor stared for a moment, his expression a little odd; he wanted to say something but didn't know how, so he just gave an embarrassed chuckle, mutually understood.

"It's fine, just joking with you." Su Yun patted Professor Rudolf Wagner on the shoulder and laughed: "Enjoy your life; that's what matters most."

Hearing Su Yun say that, the professor finally let out a sigh of relief.

Johannes Mandi glanced at the time and asked: "Doctor Zheng, Doctor Su, there's nothing else here—should I send you back to Heidelberg now?"

"Time..." Zheng Ren noticed Johannes Mandi checking his watch, as if he were in a hurry, so he didn't want to disturb him and smiled: "If you have something to do, just go ahead and arrange the car. I'll check on my patients; no need to keep me company."

Johannes Mandi's expression was the same as Professor Rudolf Wagner's just now—he seemed to have something to say. But he quickly smiled and said: "It's time for my sunbath; I'm heading back to my office to catch some sun. Want to join me?"

Beach, waves, sunshine—that's the normal image of sunbathing in Zheng Ren's mind. Can you sunbathe in the mountains too?

Looking at Johannes Mandi's System Panel, he also didn't seem to have any calcium deficiency; probably it's just a way Europeans like to keep themselves maintained.

Sunbathing with Yi Ren would be fine, but sunbathing with Johannes Mandi, that Zao Lao tou zi, is out of the question.

Zheng Ren shook his head and directly refused without hesitation.

Su Yun suddenly laughed, leaned over to Johannes Mandi's side, and asked in not-so-fluent German with a Heidelberg accent: "Sunbathing in the office—is that perianal sunbathing?"

"……"

Zheng Ren froze for a moment; perianal sunbathing—he seemed to have seen it somewhere before, but at the time his inner mind was utterly filled with contempt, just a fleeting glance. As a result, when he recalls it now, there's only a faint impression, as pale as a cloud on the horizon.

How could Johannes Mandi believe this nonsense?

"Su! I didn't expect you'd also be willing to do this exercise!" Johannes Mandi got excited, his voice suddenly rising by ten decibels.

"No, Mr. Mandi, I think you've misunderstood." Su Yun hurriedly explained: "I just happen to know about this; it doesn't mean I'm interested in perianal sunbathing."

Johannes Mandi obviously looked disappointed, he shrugged and spread his hands, expressing his regret.

"Mr. Johannes Mandi, go ahead and get busy—we won't disturb your daily routine." Zheng Ren said the words "daily routine" and even found himself amused.

That weird sunbathing routine has to be done every day, and who knows what benefits it might have.

After seeing Johannes Mandi off, Su Yun smiled and said: "Boss, that Mr. Mandi probably just has too much free time."

"Sunbathing—I recall saying it's just thirty seconds, equivalent to wearing clothes and basking outdoors all day?" Zheng Ren asked, a bit unsure.

"Yes, Boss, have you also studied this?" Su Yun asked with a smile.

Zheng Ren waved his hand.

"Do you know Meagan?" Su Yun asked.

"I don't know." Zheng Ren shook his head.

"Speaking of superstition, when Western and Eastern superstitions are combined, the result is truly a mishmash." Su Yun said, "It's like the Twelve Round Table Knights waving peachwood swords while chanting spells..."

"Cut the nonsense, what's the deal with Meagan?" Zheng Ren asked.

"She's a blogger on INS—just the type who does fitness that isn't really fitness, health preservation that isn't really health preservation, and messes up everything." Su Yun said with slight disdain.

"Don't be so sharp."

"That's just how it is—like lifting weights, like health preservation; then after listening to some gullible talk, they came up with this perianal sunbathing fad, and it blew up instantly." Su Yun laughed happily and said: "This really has no scientific basis; actually, Westerners and we are the same—everyone just wants to live longer. Given the current state of technology, that's all we have, so we can only believe in superstition."

Zheng Ren scratched his head; the objective explanation from medicine is really unpleasant to hear—nobody can spout nonsense like Meagan. Saying that thirty seconds of perianal sunbathing equals a day's worth of UV exposure is just baseless, especially unreliable.

Really daring to say it—and the key is that people actually believe it.

For example, the Supervisor of this private lab brimming with futuristic black technology believes it.

Looking at him, it seems he does it every day, rain or shine.

"You really shouldn't look down on him—Mandi and Junior Disciple of Master Yan are on the same path." Su Yun suddenly interjected, startling Zheng Ren.

"What?" Zheng Ren asked, puzzled.

"It's the Daoist saying—absorb the essence of sun and moon, follow the Ren and Du meridians, break through the dimensional barrier between humans and nature." Tsk tsk, my wording isn't the original, but that's the meaning." Su Yun said cheerfully, "When did Daoism ever have such an unorthodox saying?"

"Your explanation is actually quite proper." Zheng Ren said, feeling somewhat helpless about Su Yun's description, and sighed.

"Tch! From your expression I know what you're thinking." Su Yun said, "Meagan is just like those people selling health supplements who claim that after sunbathing their chrysanthemum, they're full of energy, sleep quality improves, spirits are high, and everything else is happier."

"What's that?"

Su Yun revealed a smile that any man would understand.

"Really..." Zheng Ren sighed, from ancient to modern, from China to abroad, it's still pretty much the same.

Wherever there are people, it's the same—this is human nature. When you want something but can't get it, you start dabbling in ever more mysterious stuff.

The perianal area absorbs sunlight well, it can promote internal calcium... How could that be! Zheng Ren was just about to analyze this from a scientific theory perspective when he suddenly realized and burst out laughing.

Isn't this all just nonsense? The manager of Bota Laboratory actually believes in superstition—what a waste of the black-technology atmosphere filling this place.
