The night passed quickly.
At four o'clock in the morning, Lu Yuan returned to his room and went to sleep.
He sent a message to Liu Yuan, asking her to wake him up at nine o'clock.
In fact, because he had another surgery scheduled for this morning and as a highly responsible doctor, Lu Yuan woke up at half past eight on his own.
It was the self-driven force generated by professional ethics.
After freshening up and having breakfast, Lu Yuan stretched his body a little and went to Jiang Yingying's ward to discuss the next facial reconstruction plan with her.
However, he didn't find her in the ward.
Instead, he found her in front of the public restroom on this floor.
Jiang Yingying was standing in front of the restroom, looking at the signs for the men's and women's restrooms with a troubled expression on her face.
Lu Yuan understood what she was struggling with.
Anyone would be unsure which way to go in this situation.
Although Jiang Yingying's current ward was an ordinary one, it had a private bathroom.
The fact that she was standing in front of the public restroom showed that she wanted to overcome her psychological barrier.
But judging by her troubled expression, it seemed to be a bit difficult for her.
Lu Yuan walked forward silently and pulled Jiang Yingying into the men's restroom.
At first, Jiang Yingying was a bit flustered, but she calmed down when she saw Lu Yuan.
By the time she regained her senses, she was already inside the men's restroom with Lu Yuan.
Looking at this partially unfamiliar and partially familiar place, as well as Lu Yuan standing beside her, Jiang Yingying felt a bit embarrassed.
Lu Yuan casually said, "Don't worry about it in the future. You should use the men's restroom. Being indecisive will only make people think you have psychological issues."
Jiang Yingying lowered her head and asked softly, "Then... doesn't that mean I'm taking advantage of many people?"
Lu Yuan shrugged and said, "You're overthinking it. They might be more excited than you are."
"...," Jiang Yingying was at a loss for words. She turned her head and glanced at the urinal inside the men's restroom, hesitatingly asking, "Dr. Lu, how do you... use that thing?"
Lu Yuan turned his head and seemed to be affected by the atmosphere of the place. He suddenly felt the urge to urinate.
So, Lu Yuan deliberately said, "Remember, you are a man now."
After speaking, he walked directly to the urinal and started the routine process of urinating like any other man.
At first, Jiang Yingying felt quite embarrassed, but after hearing Lu Yuan's reminder, she bravely looked at him.
Due to the partition, Jiang Yingying couldn't see everything, but she had a general idea of how the urinal was used.
Next, Jiang Yingying felt that she needed to put her knowledge into practice.
Since she had already experienced the embarrassment, she decided to fully understand the knowledge she wanted to learn.
With a very nervous mood, she walked to the urinal next to Lu Yuan and performed the first step.
"Dr. Lu, I... I..."
"What's wrong?"
"H-How do I take it out?"
"With your hand."
"..."
At that moment, Jiang Yingying didn't say anything, but her facial expression was quite complex.
"You need to get used to this kind of life because it will be your everyday routine," Lu Yuan said.
Listening to Lu Yuan's words, Jiang Yingying couldn't help but turn her head to look at his actions.
"Dr. Lu, why are ours different?"
"Out of respect for the deceased, I'm sorry, but I can't answer that question for now."
Jiang Yingying: "..."
"Then, should I support it too?"
"Mine is larger in size, weight, and length, so it would sag if not supported. As for yours, well, it depends on your preference. Sometimes it's convenient to have it shorter."
Jiang Yingying: "..."
"Dr. Lu, you're lying."
"How am I lying?"
"Yours is clearly rising little by little."
Lu Yuan: "..."
Although Jiang Yingying had already undergone the first step of the surgery, her appearance still showed that she was a woman.
A woman who could capture the attention of someone like Wang Yi, a person with extraordinary abilities, may not be stunningly beautiful, but she is no ordinary person either.
With a decent appearance and appealing contours, what's more important is that she was staring at him intently...
And only at him...
Suddenly, Lu Yuan felt immense pressure.
However, soon after, the sounds that resembled the bursting of the Yellow River ceased.
He shook and trembled in place, adjusted his pants, but the result—
Jiang Yingying was shocked!
"Dr. Lu, don't you wipe it?!"
Lu Yuan: "..."
"You can look that up on the internet yourself. Don't ask me."
After Lu Yuan left the men's restroom, it took Jiang Yingying a full ten minutes to come out stiffly.
As soon as she stepped out, Lu Yuan softly asked her, "Did you wipe?"
Jiang Yingying glared at Lu Yuan with her beautiful eyes. "Why should you care?!"
Lu Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "I just wanted to remind you that certain peculiar actions might expose some of your features."
"I didn't wipe!"
"That's fine then. Remember to take care in the future."
"Got it! You're so annoying!"
"I never thought Wang Yi would turn out to be an honest person."
"How do you know that?"
"When someone is almost thirty years old and still doesn't understand certain basic knowledge, how do you think I know?"
"Lu Yuan!"
"Cough, cough. Let's prepare for the surgery."
...
At nine-thirty, Jiang Yingying was about to be wheeled into the operating room when Lu Yuan handed her an IPD.
"You can choose the appearance you want."
Jiang Yingying swiped on the IPD a few times and finally settled on a face of a fair-skinned young man with styled hair.
Lu Yuan frowned. "This kind of distinctive style might attract more attention to you. Personally, I don't recommend choosing this face."
Jiang Yingying smiled at Lu Yuan and said, "Dr. Lu, most of the wealthy ladies in those big conglomerates like this kind of look."
Lu Yuan shook his head. "That's a cognitive bias. From what I know—"
Seeing the gossip fire rising in Jiang Yingying's eyes, Lu Yuan quickly changed his tune. "Well, you're right. Are you sure about this face then?"
"Dr. Lu, what were you about to say just now? Don't tell me you have connections with some wealthy ladies in those conglomerates?"
"Is there a graceful and wealthy lady waiting for you to say, 'Sister, I don't want to try anymore'?"
"Is that so, Dr. Lu?"
Lu Yuan ignored her.
"Tsk, so stingy..."
Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
Even though Jiang Yingying was deliberately putting on a cheerful and lively demeanor, in the depths of her eyes, Lu Yuan could still see a hidden sadness.
Looking at the face Jiang Yingying had chosen and the words she had just spoken, it was evident that she was determined to avenge Wang Yi.
At ten o'clock, Jiang Yingying was lying on the operating table.
Lu Yuan, dressed in surgical attire, displayed twenty-two sharp and delicate surgical knives.
He used a marking pen to draw various marks all over Jiang Yingying's face.
"Now, we'll proceed with the first step, starting with the outer corners of your eyes and double eyelid surgery..."

e vast world of cultivation, where he becomes the master of the Heavenly Ruins Sacred Hall, a dying old man with barely a tenth of his former cultivation remaining. He is immediately confronted with a deadly crisis: his subordinates have rebelled, and his protectors are forcing him to abdicate. At the critical moment, the system descends from the heavens: [Ding! The host has been detected facing a life-or-death crisis. The system is now officially activated!] [As a gift, you have received the Supreme Beginner’s Pack and awakened the ultimate cheat: ten thousand years of pure cultivation essence every second!] Yin Tianjue: “Wait… ten thousand years of cultivation every second?

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
