Su Yun was bewildered for a second, then realized…

  • by Christopher Thompson A doctor came over with a mercury sphygmomanometer. “Young man, are you alright?” “I’m fine.” Zheng Ren opened his eyes. They were clear and focused. The doctor relaxed, as Zheng Ren could still speak coherently, but he measured his blood pressure anyways. It was slightly below average. “Come, we’ll go to the other operating room. The orthopedic surgeon and hand surgeon will have a look at the wound,” a young nurse said. “Lean on me so you don’t fall.” “It’s okay.…
  • by Christopher Thompson Doctors of all ages came to assist. Zheng Ren paid them no heed and tore open the incision kit, dousing the knife wounds on Fang Lin’s body with iodophor.

He took a scalpel from the kit; without any preamble, he cut into Fang Lin’s flesh. He moved in a flurry. Any comments from bystanders died down after witnessing the first incision. ‘Was he going to stop…

The sight of the old professor’s snow-white hair filled Zheng Ren with emotions. Professor Gu had surpassed Master rank without the help of the System. He had relied on years of experience and hard work to get to where he was now, which was somewhere between Grandmaster and Legend. The System had given Zheng Ren a boost, but he decided he…
  • by Christopher Thompson At 7:00 am the next day, Feng Xuhui delivered breakfast to his two guests. Zheng Ren was not used to such hospitality, but Su Yun shamelessly wolfed down the food. “Mr. Zheng, Professor Gu requested to meet you,” Su Yun said with his mouth full. “Professor Gu?” Zheng Ren had no idea who the man was. Had he overlooked some names yesterday? “Oh, he was the one that performed the biopsy on the esophageal tuberculosis patient,” Su Yun explained. “When Fang Lin returned, he saw…
