Chapter 832 - Go Wherever You Go
Chapter 832: Go Wherever You Go
A monthly income of less than 100,000 seemed to be…okay.
Zheng Ren was the kind of person who did not have money, but did not think that money was the most important thing. Previously, when he went to the Second Municipal People’s Hospital for ‘freelance surgery’, he had earned a few sums of money, but he did not care much about it.
At that time, he was the Chief Resident, so he did not have time to spend money.
But now, the situation was different.
“I’ll treat you tonight. Let’s go for dinner,” Zheng Ren said with a smile. “Ask Lil Fugui and Xi Bao’er to come with.”
“When did Chief Zheng become so generous?” Chang Yue said. “What are you going to eat tonight? Do you have a place or should I discuss it with Little Yiren?”
“You two discuss it and then inform me,” Zheng Ren said.
Zheng Ren suddenly remembered that Su Yun had said that he was going to hand in his salary card. But did Little Yiren lack this bit of money?
Whether she lacked it or not was one thing, but whether she would hand it in or not was a matter of attitude.
Zheng Ren encountered a problem that was very difficult for him.
As he was thinking, his phone rang.
It was Professor Pei of the Sorcery Capital.
Zheng Ren quickly picked up the phone. Although they were separated by the phone and thousands of mountains and rivers, the smile on his face was still warm.
“Hello, Professor Pei.” Zheng Ren answered the phone and said.
“Little Zheng, your side is doing well,” Pei Yingjie said.
The two of them had not seen each other for a while. Since the first time they left the Imperial Capital, they had not had any contact.
However, Zheng Ren remembered Pei Yingjie. He was the one who started the journey from the Sea City to the Imperial Capital. Zheng Ren would never forget the kindness of Pei Yingjie.
“Professor Pei, did you watch the livestream?”
“Yes, I did. You did a good job of simplifying the TIPS surgery,” Pei Yingjie said. “Do you have time to explain it to an old man like me?”
“Listen to what you said,” Zheng Ren said with a smile. “I will find time to go to the Sorcery Capital.”
“No need. I have a meeting in the Imperial Capital in a few days. I will come to you,” Pei Yingjie said. “Is it really done by using the magnetic diffusion of the liver?”
“Yes, there are already nearly a hundred or so surgeries. They’re more mature now.”
“Okay, then I’ll make use of the time to go over. I won’t chat further. I reckon that you’ll be very busy today.” Pei Yingjie smiled and hung up the phone.
Zheng Ren put down his phone and felt much more at ease.
He just wanted to give it a try, but the influence of the live broadcast of the surgery had exceeded his expectations.
This was only the first live broadcast of the surgery. Many people had not gone online or had just received the news.
After all, the incident had happened so suddenly that they had only managed to advertised on Xinglin Garden’s own website.
Would the surgery live broadcast room be packed to the brim with people for the second live broadcast?
But very soon, Zheng Ren felt a huge pressure.
Zheng Ren received a few calls. They were all from famous experts and professors from all over the country.
Although there were not many phone calls, Zheng Ren knew that they were people who had extraordinary hands and eyes. Those who could call the frontline headquarters and find Director Kong must be powerful people.
Zheng Ren politely answered the phone and chatted with them as if they knew each other. Then, they said that they had time to come meet him.
The new TIPS surgery method and the Nobel Prize project could not be kept low-key even if he wanted to. If not for the fact that he had gone on a mission before and then went to the frontline to fight the earthquake and rescue the victims after he came back, Zheng Ren would have long entered these deep waters.
The morning passed with the intermittent phone calls.
Zheng Ren was a little tired as he sent a WeChat message to Little Yiren, asking her what she wanted to eat for lunch.
Without waiting for Little Yiren to reply, Zheng Ren suddenly realized that he was no longer the Chief Resident. There were only six beds in total. In the afternoon, he could skip work and accompany Little Yiren somewhere for fun–just the two of them.
[Let’s go out and find a place to sit at noon?]
Zheng Ren immediately turned on his app and sent a message for the next day.
[Oh? You have time?]
Xie Yiren asked.
[Today’s surgery was successfully broadcasted live. Consider it a celebration. Let’s have dinner with Su Yun and the others tonight. Let’s go for a walk in the afternoon.]
[Sure, I’ll get changed.]
A relaxed smile appeared on Zheng Ren’s face.
The days when he did not have to be a Chief Resident and he did not have to worry about his phone ringing every day were really relaxing.
[Where do you want to go? Do you have any ideas?]
Xie Yiren replied and asked.
[No ideas.]
As long as he could be with Xie Yiren, it really did not matter where he went.
[Then let’s not drive. We’ll take the subway and choose a station with our eyes closed. We can get off anywhere and find delicious food nearby. What do you think?]
[Okay.]
It was decided. It was actually quite simple.
There was no purpose, no thoughts. As long as the two of them were together, they could go anywhere.
Casual,
romantic,
spontaneous,
and living on the edge.
Zheng Ren said this and then changed his clothes. He went to the Inpatient Department in high spirits and waited for Xie Yiren to come down.
Today was exceptionally bright. Clusters of white clouds were like big marshmallows.
When Zheng Ren was young, his hobby was to squat next to the machine that made marshmallows. He was very happy when he smelled the sweet and greasy smell.
Soon, Xie Yiren jumped down like a deer.
Their fingers were interlocked. They were so in-sync.
“I heard from Sister Hu this morning that the stream of the live surgical broadcast was very big,” Xie Yiren said.
“Yeah, I reckon that the next livestream will be even larger.”
“And then?”
“Su Yun went to prepare the agreement. The first few batches of people who came to learn TIPS surgery have to sign the agreement. Then, to a certain extent, they can increase the number of surgeries required for the Nobel Prize,” Zheng Ren said with a smile.
“The plan is not bad.”
“It is very perfect. It has always been perfect,” Zheng Ren said.
“I know. The best surgeon.”
The two of them leaned against each other and walked out of the hospital to a nearby subway station.
“Do you choose, or do I choose?” Xie Yiren asked.
“You choose. Let’s see where the heavens have arranged for us to go today,” Zheng Ren said.
“What if we are chosen to stay here and we don’t move a single step?” Xie Yiren suddenly thought of a possibility.
“It’s fine. Then we’ll take the Ring Line and sit back down.”
Zheng Ren’s suggestion was supported by Xie Yiren.
The two of them entered the subway station and followed the flow of people to a certain subway line without any purpose.
Zheng Ren found a large map of the subway line and let go of Xie Yiren’s hand, making a ‘please’ gesture.
Xie Yiren put her hands together as if she was praying for something. She looked very serious and focused. Zheng Ren found it funny. The tip of her nose was slightly raised. With her big eyes, she looked like a girl from a cartoon.
He was really lucky to meet her.
Zheng Ren thought to himself.
Before Xie Yiren could make her choice, a burst of crying came from not far away.
Xie Yiren also heard the crying. She did not choose the location. She opened her eyes and looked around in a daze.
It was not the rush hour of the subway, so there were not many people. It was a different world from the rush hour that came at night.
Not far away, a little boy was being pulled by his mother. He was crying.
Zheng Ren did not think about why the child was crying or making a scene. Perhaps this was the way of life.
