Chapter 521: Miss Xie Yiren’s Express Delivery
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Two men came in, impressing Zheng Ren.
They were the men from the day that Zheng Ren and Xie Yiren met on a date. They were the father of the patient with acute pulmonary embolism and…her boyfriend.
The two of them walked in together, seemingly confident. Zheng Ren could see a trace of intimacy between them?
It seemed like both father and son-in-law had strengthened their relations.h.i.+p?
Zheng Ren recalled the day when the boy knelt on the ground and cried out, confessing his true feelings.
Yes, confessing he was confessing how he felt to his father-in-law. This was also Zheng Ren’s first time experiencing something like this.
However, now that he thought about it, Zheng Ren felt a little warm in his heart.
After letting the two of them sit down, Zheng Ren inquired about the treatment process.
Because the patient had an inferior vena cava filter, she was treated in the ICU and her condition gradually improved. However, because of the pregnancy, her coagulation function had been impaired. Later, she was transferred to the maternity ward to have an abortion.
Now, the patient had basically recovered from all her previous complications. All her test results had come out normal. It was now time to remove the IVC filter.
Zheng Ren explained the risks during the operation, making sure to spare no details for each and every one of them.
In fact, the risky period to remove the filter had pa.s.sed and there would be no more risks. However, the medical industry was most afraid of complications that could not be explained by current technology and developments.
After all, even the most advanced technology could not be said to have a 100% understanding of the human body. Thus, complications were very common.
After giving his instructions, Zheng Ren smiled and said, “in the future, you have to be careful.”
The patient’s two family members knew what this meant.
The young man nodded and said seriously, “Don’t worry, doctor. We won’t cause you any trouble in the future.”
“Don’t think that you’ll be fine just because you’re married. You have to be vigilant,” said the patient’s father with a straight face akin to an old cadre.
“Yes, yes. Don’t worry.” The young man immediately smiled.
“Oh? You’re getting married?”
“Yes, after the filter is taken out. After she’s discharged, we’re going to register the marriage,” the young man said happily. “I told her that even if she can’t have a child, I’ll be fine with it. If we want a child, we’ll adopt one.”
The young man’s smile and warm emotions made the afternoon sun s.h.i.+ne brightly. Zheng Ren smiled. This was really good.
Not long after, Zheng Ren received a call from Feng Xuhui. He had gone to pick up the guests and already made the necessary arrangements.
Because there were more things to do, Zheng Ren did not want to talk to anyone other than Xie Yiren. He politely added the girl on WeChat and said that the hospital was a little busy so he would contact her later.
The busy afternoon pa.s.sed by just like that.
The bulk of it was just the most basic of work. There was no emergency treatment needed, no resuscitation, and no life or death matters in general.
Before leaving work, Zheng Ren sent a WeChat message to Su Yun.
[Are you free tonight?]
Su Yun used his hand speed as an esports player to reply to Zheng Ren’s message in an instant.
[You want to go on a date with the Little Yiren? Go ahead. I’ll keep an eye on things here. Everything should be fine.]
Zheng Ren smiled and sent a WeChat message to Xie Yiren. He arranged to meet her at the usual place before changing his clothes and adjusted his mood. After that, he walked out of the emergency ward happily while humming an old song.
Even a man of iron could not endure such a stressful job 24 hours a day.
Zheng Ren put everything behind him at work, unwilling to think about it now. He was ready to have a happy meal, chat, and then go home with Xie Yiren.
It would be great if they could go to his house. At the moment, Zheng Ren hated the fact that Xie Yiren’s family had so many houses.
He arrived at the underground parking lot at Section D and easily found the red Volvo XC60.
Xie Yiren sat in the car and seemed to be in a daze.
Zheng Ren wanted to walk in a direction that Xie Yiren could not see, but he was afraid of scaring her. Therefore, he waved his hand and walked over.
He did not go to the pa.s.senger seat. Instead, he went up to the window of the driver’s seat and knocked lightly on the gla.s.s.
“Is Miss Xie Yiren there?”
Xie Yiren was stunned. What was wrong with the stoic Zheng Ren today?
She rolled down the window and smiled gently. “Who are you?”
“I’m a courier. Miss Xie Yiren, your courier has arrived,” Zheng Ren said seriously.
“What’s the delivery?” Xie Yiren covered her mouth and said with a smile.
“The best surgeon in history.” Zheng Ren raised his hand. There was a fake receipt in it.
According to Zheng Ren’s script, he should have ended their drama ‘rehearsal’ with laughter.
Unexpectedly, Xie Yiren grabbed his hand. She thought about something for a moment and asked him to take something from her bag with one hand. However, he felt awkward. She quickly said, “Put your hand there and don’t move.”
“Oh.” Zheng Ren was also curious about what she was going to do.
Soon, Xie Yiren took out a tube of lipstick. The bottom was black and the top was golden. Overall, it was shaped like a carrot.
After uns.c.r.e.w.i.n.g the top, Xie Yiren grabbed Zheng Ren’s hand and drew twice on the back of his hand.
“Alright, I’ve signed for it.” Xie Yiren finally looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and nodded.
Zheng Ren still wanted to hold Xie Yiren’s hand, but he did not expect her to slowly close her car window.
Helpless, he could only go around from the back to the pa.s.senger’s seat.
“From now on, you’re mine. Don’t be mischievous.” Xie Yiren’s face was a little red. She pretended to focus her eyes toward the front and started the car.
“Yes, yes.” Zheng Ren nodded quickly, smiling foolishly.
‘What should I say?’ How would Zheng Ren know what to say in such an ambiguous situation? He had used the limits of his emotional intelligence to come up with that joke.
“What do you want to eat tonight?” Xie Yiren drove out of the hospital’s underground parking lot asked gently.
“Uh…”
“Forget it. You wouldn’t know even if I asked you. Let me think about it…” Xie Yiren said. “By the way, when you went to the Capital, you said that Da Dong’s foie gras was delicious. Coincidentally, there’s also a small j.a.panese restaurant in Sea City and their foie gras sus.h.i.+ is also excellent.”
“Okay.” Zheng Ren was already in a daze. How could he still remember the scene of eating foie gras at Da Dong in the Capital?
Zheng Ren could not remember how the foie gras tasted that day at all.
Xie Yiren drove while Zheng Ren rehashed to her about what happened today. There were many things. Although they were trivial, life was made up of these small details.
Especially the girl who had a pulmonary embolism that day. Zheng Ren told Xie Yiren about the entanglement between her boyfriend and her father, as well as the touching ‘confession’ that day.
Xie Yiren did not feel annoyed. She listened carefully and would occasionally comment.
Soon, Volvo arrived at the development zone, a very remote location.
This was once a street of restaurants, but due to the economic downturn in Sea City, many restaurants had closed down.
There was a small shop with a carp flag hanging at the door and lit lanterns. It had j.a.panese written all over it.
“This is it.” Xie Yiren parked the car and the two of them got out.
Zheng Ren looked at the place carefully. It was called Kobayas.h.i.+ Kaoru Sus.h.i.+. In a corner, there was a promotional slogan that said, ‘Kobayas.h.i.+ is a j.a.panese restaurant with an att.i.tude’.
