Click-clack, click-clack...
The crisp sound of high heels echoed through the corridor as the Head Maid ran toward the hospital room, bumping right into the doctor who was returning with the medical records and was just about to knock on the door.
"Wait a moment!"
The Head Maid hurriedly stopped him. The doctor turned his head in confusion, looking at the slightly panting Head Maid. He didn't recognize her; he only recognized the little maid from earlier.
After stopping, the Head Maid took a couple of breaths, and her rapid breathing soon steadied. She took out her phone and sent a message to the little maid keeping watch inside the room.
Tap, tap, tap... The sound of the little maid's footsteps came from inside the room.
"Big sister!" The little maid's eyes lit up with excitement. The Head Maid made a shushing gesture and peeked into the room, seeing her Young Miss guarding the bedside.
A tightly wrapped figure lay on the hospital bed. Since the door was only cracked open slightly, she couldn't see the exact situation clearly, but... it shouldn't be wrong.
Click.
The door closed gently.
"Give me the medical records first." The Head Maid reached out her hand to the doctor. The doctor froze for a moment, seemingly realizing that the Head Maid was the one calling the shots here, and hurriedly handed over the freshly printed records.
The Head Maid opened the records wrapped in kraft paper and read them very seriously. The various professional data reports posed no reading obstacles for her.
Although she hadn't pursued a doctorate in medicine, knowledge is interconnected, and a smart brain is always a smart brain. Learning about nursing and medical matters after coming back wasn't too difficult a task.
At least for the Head Maid, it was like this. After all, besides studying and taking care of people all day, she didn't have much else to do. Oh, wait... recently she was also watching cartoons.
Watching cartoons, in a sense, was also a form of learning. Changing tastes occasionally was quite nice.
The fastest way to conquer something is to understand it.
Just now, while lying in the hospital holding her phone, the Head Maid was watching Big Ear Tutu... yes, to understand it.
Seeing the Head Maid reading so intently, the doctor, who had intended to explain things, kept his mouth shut. As expected of a maid from a wealthy family, her literacy was high. Without some basic knowledge, one wouldn't be able to understand this stuff at all...
Initially, the Head Maid's brows were tightly furrowed, but upon seeing that Ye Cheng's physical indicators were all healthy—oh wait, they were abnormally strong, much higher than a normal person's—her furrowed brows relaxed.
But soon, upon seeing words like "suspected cancer," her relaxed brows furrowed tightly once again.
As she continued reading, the Head Maid's expression grew uglier and uglier.
Closing the medical records, the Head Maid took a deep breath, trying to make herself look as calm as possible, and gave a look to the little maid beside her.
"You go back and watch over the Miss first. I'll be back in a bit. You don't need to tell the Miss that I came."
The little maid nodded. "Mhm, okay big sister, I'll go first."
Although she didn't know why her big sister's expression had turned somewhat bad, and why she was suddenly asked to go back, since it was the Head Maid's order, there must be a reason for such an arrangement!
The little maid trusted the Head Maid unconditionally. Not only the little maid in front of her, but the rest of the subordinates were the same, absolutely obeying the Head Maid's arrangements!
The sky wouldn't fall, and even if it did, the Head Maid would be there to hold it up... Loyalty!
After the little maid left, the Head Maid finally withdrew her gaze and looked at the doctor in front of her. "Sorry, please come with me for a moment."
The doctor nodded and followed behind the Head Maid. The two found a quiet place, a corner with no one around but from which they could still see the situation at the hospital room.
"Was this data just printed out?" The Head Maid frowned.
The doctor nodded. "Yes, the patient had massive bleeding and needed blood typing, as well as checks for any genetic medical history..."
The doctor spoke about many professional matters. The Head Maid nodded as she listened, confirming the possibility of a mistake in the report, but her heart sank. No mistake meant it really was cancer!
"Do not tell anyone about this, and clear all the data on your end," the Head Maid suddenly said.
The doctor hesitated slightly, but after thinking about it, he still nodded. "Alright, it's just that the patient's condition is quite complex. Jumping to conclusions too early is not advisable..."
The doctor voiced his doubts. It was true that a large number of cancer cells were detected in Ye Cheng's body, but... no specific distribution area could be found.
You see, carcinogenesis is a process from a localized area to the whole body. First, a certain part of the body undergoes necrosis and mutation, then it occupies that local area, and finally, it deteriorates and spreads throughout the body.
But Ye Cheng's case was very strange. No specific local area was particularly high, yet the cancer components in his body had met the standard, reaching the criteria for the middle stage.
Simply put... it was spread evenly.
They couldn't even determine what kind of cancer it was...
It was just very strange?
Especially since Ye Cheng's various physical indicators were so healthy it was bizarre. How did he look like someone terminally ill? He was ridiculously healthy!
The cell activity in his body far exceeded that of a normal person. At first glance, the doctor thought he had read it wrong and checked several times to confirm. Yes... that's right, this guy was practically not human.
Ye Cheng's physical data, even if placed among top-tier Olympiad athletes, would be a highly exaggerated existence. Anyone who could participate in the Olympiad was top-notch, and Ye Cheng was the top of the top.
The most ridiculous thing was that with such top-tier data, he actually had cancer?
If the setting weren't inappropriate, he would have loved to tie Ye Cheng up and slice him for research. It was too absurd. If it really were cancer, he should be lying in bed right now, emaciated and listless... Uh, well, although he was lying in bed right now, the process was clearly wrong.
After listening to the doctor's analysis, the Head Maid fell silent.
Actually... she had also noticed something was wrong, which was why she asked the doctor to explain the situation, wondering if the machine had malfunctioned. However, after this explanation, it seemed much more "reasonable."
In other words... a certain someone really wasn't human?
"But don't worry too much. Medical technology is advanced now, and the patient's body is very... uh, strong. There shouldn't be any major problems. I recommend keeping him in the hospital for observation and receiving regular treatment," the doctor offered a path forward.
The Head Maid remained silent, not speaking.
A long time passed.
"I understand. There will be a reply by the end of today." The Head Maid took a deep breath, preparing to return to the hospital room.
"Um... it's just..." The doctor hesitated to speak.
"Is there anything else?" Seeing the doctor's hesitation, the Head Maid took the initiative to ask.
After struggling for a long time, the doctor finally told the Head Maid about some "strange things" that had happened in the operating room. After hearing it, the Head Maid fell silent.
"So you are saying that you gave him anesthesia, but he woke up on his own? And when he woke up, he was fully conscious and told you exactly where to make the incisions? He even told you that if there were two wealthy-looking young girls at the door, you shouldn't wheel him out, but let him wake up on his own..."
"Is that what happened?" the Head Maid asked tentatively.
Doctor: "..."
"Uh, I know this sounds bizarre, but I can guarantee that this was absolutely not a medical malpractice. Please believe us, Miss!" The doctor was a bit agitated, terrified that the Head Maid wouldn't believe them.
As everyone knows, anesthesia is required during surgery. Too much anesthesia damages the brain, while too little won't keep the patient under. If a patient wakes up, it is a textbook case of medical malpractice, just like what happened with Ye Cheng.
He woke up during the surgery.
However... things were a bit different this time.
"We speculate that there are certain cells in the patient's body that have a resistance to anesthesia..."
"Resistance? Then how did you make him go to sleep afterwards? Don't tell me you..." The Head Maid seemed to think of something, and her expression turned stern.
The doctor shook her head in fright: "No, no, Miss, we wouldn't make such an amateur mistake. We didn't increase the dosage of the anesthesia, as that would harm the patient's body. The patient himself said he was a bit sleepy and wanted to take a nap, and told us to wake him up after the surgery was done. We didn't dare to wake him, so we just wheeled him out like this..."
This absolute madman had finally fallen asleep on his own; how could they possibly dare to wake him up!
It could be said that this was the most bizarre surgery in their dozen years of medical careers. It was the first time they had ever performed such an easy surgery. Before, they had to consider many things during an operation, but now they didn't have to—the patient simply told them what to do...
Fuck!!!
Originally, after the surgery, the few of them had looked at each other in dismay, got their stories straight, and planned to take this secret to their graves. However... the doctor still couldn't help but speak up, because it was just too bizarre.
If Ye Cheng woke up and told others, the incident would still leak out. At that point, hiding the truth from their superiors would cost them their jobs.
After a good while of internal struggle, she decided it was better to confess.
After hearing this, the Head Maid fell even more silent. Was this guy really human?
"Alright, I understand. I hope you take this matter to your graves." After saying that, the Head Maid took a deep breath, turned around, and returned to the ward.
Click.
The Head Maid walked into the room. The two people inside looked over—one was Xia Tongxin, and the other was a little maid. As for Ye Cheng, he was lying on the hospital bed, wrapped up like a rice dumpling, looking as if he had passed away "peacefully."
"Xiaxia, boohoo, sniff, sniff... boohoo, you're finally here, boohoohoo... sniff..." Xia Tongxin lifted her head and looked pitifully at the Head Maid.
Head Maid: "..."
The Head Maid walked over, took the tissue from the little maid's hand, and continued to help Xia Tongxin wipe her nose and tears, occasionally glancing over at Ye Cheng lying on the bed.
A glance that felt like ten thousand years!
Because... Ye Cheng had opened his eyes.
Head Maid: "???"
Swish! The Head Maid stood straight up!
"Boohoo, eh? Xiaxia, what are you doing? Boohoohoo, sniff, sniff..." Xia Tongxin followed the direction of the Head Maid's gaze.
Ye Cheng was still lying quietly on the bed, his eyes tightly shut, looking as if he had "passed away peacefully." A giant question mark appeared over Xia Tongxin's cute little head.
"What's wrong, Xiaxia? Is Grandpa Niu awake?" Xia Tongxin asked, her eyes red as she sniffled her little nose.
Head Maid: "???"
What did you just call him!!!

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
