After confirming that there were no issues with this zombie infected person, Lu Yuan casually left Liu Yuan with a sentence: "Since you brought him up here, think of a way to send him back yourself."
"Don't take too long, there are patients waiting for you to put them under anesthesia for their surgeries."
Without paying any attention to Liu Yuan's protesting and resentful gaze, Lu Yuan tidied up his white coat and walked towards the stairs.
Watching Lu Yuan's departing figure, Liu Yuan found it somewhat unbelievable. She did not believe that the usually gentle, kind, handsome and considerate Dr. Lu, who treated his patients like treasures, would bear to make a young girl like herself move a 300-pound infected person down two floors.
Liu Yuan did not believe Lu Yuan would be that kind of person.
Sure enough, when Lu Yuan reached the door to the stairwell, he looked back. Liu Yuan instantly felt relieved. See, Dr. Lu would not be so heartless.
At this time, Lu Yuan cleared his throat and asked, "By the way, have you had breakfast?"
"If not, please hurry up a bit. I can't perform surgery on patients on an empty stomach, that would be too irresponsible."
"..."
Liu Yuan tilted her pretty little head. She just could not understand how this man could bear to do this.
Lu Yuan: "Hmm?"
Liu Yuan said somewhat powerlessly, "Auntie Zhang made it..."
The Auntie Zhang Liu Yuan was referring to was Zhang Fenglan.
Lu Yuan stood still and did not move. "The taste of the robot's cooking is not as good. I want to eat what you make."
In an instant, Liu Yuan's eyebrows curved into two crescent moons, and her already exceptionally beautiful face instantly became even more sweet and attractive.
She pointed at the comatose zombie infected person in front of her, "What about this big guy?"
"Keep an eye on the monitors after my surgery starts. When he shows signs of regaining consciousness, just watch him go back by himself."
Liu Yuan: "Okay, thanks boss!"
See, our Dr. Lu is not that heartless at all!
At this side, Liu Yuan was skipping over wanting to grab Lu Yuan's arm, but as usual–
Slap!
She was slapped away by Lu Yuan with no hesitation.
Liu Yuan pouted, "Boss, no milk tea to drink today..."
As Lu Yuan walked away he said, "You can go buy some yourself after my surgery is done. Remember—"
Liu Yuan hurriedly said, "I know! I can only buy one cup!"
Lu Yuan nodded. "Good..."
...
Half an hour later, after having breakfast, Lu Yuan stretched a bit to get ready to perform surgery on Seventh Brother.
On Liu Yuan's side, she had already put Seventh Brother under anesthesia and moved him onto the operating table in Operating Room #4.
In the 20 minutes before the surgery began, Liu Yuan went to the second floor of the underground warehouse to retrieve the blood demon ape prosthetic legs to be installed on Seventh Brother today. She placed them on a cart and brought them to Lu Yuan in the operating room.
When the "Surgery In Progress" indicator light in the operating room lit up, Liu Yuan picked up her iPad in her own work room nearby to observe the zombie infected person who still lying on the ground.
Because of Lu Yuan's special physique, he did not need anyone else for his surgeries. He could complete them alone.
Occasionally calling Liu Yuan in to wipe away some sweat was not because Lu Yuan really needed it, but rather he wanted to take a temporary break.
While Lu Yuan and Liu Yuan were busy, Seventh Brother was lying sedated on the operating table. In the medical school, there was a little one who was extremely bored, peeking here and there.
Early in the morning, Zhang Baobao had already taken a stroll around the medical school with Zhang Fenglan, and they went grocery shopping together to make breakfast.
Now, according to the instructions set by Lu Yuan, it was time for Zhang Fenglan to enter her scheduled morning break.
During this time, Zhang Baobao had free rein.
In the future, Zhang Fenglan's break times would become longer and longer. Lu Yuan was doing this so that Zhang Baobao could get used to life without Zhang Fenglan as soon as possible.
At this time, Zhang Baobao was alone, nibbling on her fingers as she went from the clinic's 5th floor down to the 1st, then climbed back up to the 5th floor, then went back down to the 1st...
With no one else around, Zhang Baobao pitifully blinked her big eyes on her cute little face. Finally, she set her sights on the door at the end of the 1st floor hallway.
"The nurse sister lives there, I'll go find the nurse sister to play!"
As soon as this thought popped into her mind, the little one immediately skipped happily down the 1st floor hallway toward the room at the end.
When she arrived at the door, Zhang Baobao specifically looked at the sign on it. "Open to visitors during this period, please be prudent upon entering."
Zhang Baobao could not read, but she could recognize numbers.
The little one slowly counted out each of her fingers from one to ten, then counted out three fingers again.
"Now, Baobao can go in..."
Seeing there were 13 characters, the little one knew that the area was currently open to enter.
If there were 12 characters, "Closed to visitors during this period, no unauthorized entry," then she could not go in.
That's right, this was the method Liu Yuan taught Zhang Baobao to distinguish whether she could enter the room at the end of the hallway or not. Simple and practical.
Zhang Baobao gently pushed open the door in front of her and entered the stairwell leading down to the underground cold storage warehouse.
Soon, she arrived at the -1st floor underground. But...
The thought process of a girl less than 5 years old was evidently rather special. She did not actually enter the -1st floor, but instead hurriedly descended the stairs.
Zhang Baobao went down the stairs one step at a time on her little short legs. As she went down, she curiously looked around the area she was in.
Perhaps due to her young age, or perhaps because of Zhang Baobao's identity, the little one did not have any trace of fear in her heart at the moment.
Soon, she arrived at the mezzanine level between the -1st and -2nd floors underground.
Here, she curiously took a look at the room door on the mezzanine level and continued down the stairwell.
After passing the -2nd floor underground, Zhang Baobao only poked her head in to take a cursory glance at the rows of orderly arranged prosthetic limb storage units on the -2nd floor before continuing to walk down.
Passing through the mezzanine level between the -2nd and -3rd floors underground, this time the little one stopped in front of the mezzanine room door for a while.
She tilted her little head, seemingly lost in thought about something.
Soon after, Zhang Baobao resumed her little "adventure". She arrived in front of that strange large door on the -3rd floor.
Little Zhang Baobao stood in front of this massive door. She raised her tiny head, her little mouth opening slightly, seemingly surprised at the towering grandeur of the door before her.
She reached out and tried pushing the gigantic door, but its massive plank did not budge one bit.
A disappointed look emerged in Zhang Baobao's eyes, clear as a pool of water. She was just about to leave when suddenly—
Squeak!
A small door in the middle of that enormous door actually opened by itself.
Hearing the sound, Zhang Baobao turned back around. Seeing that a crack had opened in the little door, delight flashed across her tiny face. She hurriedly ran up and nimbly squeezed through the gap in the small door.
Inside the door, what Zhang Baobao saw was a pitch-black hallway that seemed to have no end.
She became a little worried, but at this time, flaming lights suddenly lit up on both sides of the hallway walls. Two rows of candle flames spread from Zhang Baobao's position all the way into the unseen depths of the hallway.
The range illuminated by the candle flames was limited. In the darkness ahead, Zhang Baobao could vaguely make out a figure dressed as a nurse.
"It's nurse sister! You're here!"
The crisp, sweet voice echoed in the dim hallway. Zhang Baobao lifted up her little short legs and ran towards the depths of the hallway.
"Nurse sister! Wait for me, I came to play with you!"
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
