The Surgeon's Studio Chapter 757 – Life As It Should Be

Chapter 757: Life As It Should Be

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zheng Ren did not know what was going on in Chief Resident Shen’s mind. He looked around at the patients, spoke a few words with Professor Rudolf Wagner and Little Oliver, then changed his clothes and left the hospital.

The professor wanted to drag Zheng Ren to a bar but when he thought of Chang Yue and the legendary Su Yun, he could not help but shudder.

The boss had just returned. It would be better to celebrate after a few days. If he really went to the bar, he would probably have to lie down again tomorrow.

In the end, the professor gave up on the unrealistic idea. Chang Yue could really drink. The professor was traumatized by the sight of Big Green Stick beer.

Zheng Ren took out his phone and searched the location of the nearby vegetable market.

Buying vegetables? Zheng Ren’s impression was still of the noisy shouts of the farmers’ market, definitely not the kind that was cut and washed in the supermarket.

“Chief Resident Shen, where can I buy vegetables in the vicinity?” Zheng Ren was searching on the map when he saw Chief Resident Shen scrubbing his body and rushing to get off work.

“Uh…” Chief Resident Shen was stunned. As a former doctoral student and chief resident, buying vegetables was also quite a foreign concept for him.

It was just that he was not as ‘pure’ as Zheng Ren, so he still knew some things.

“Boss Zheng, behind the hospital… There’s one in the southern direction. There is a big major supermarket. You can buy it there,” Chief Resident Shen said.

Zheng Ren hesitated for a moment.

“You can also buy them online. The green fruit and vegetable network is very convenient. I usually place an order at night and they deliver it the next day. If you’re in a hurry, you can add more money.”

It was still not the option Zheng Ren wanted.

But there was no other way. He didn’t really want to go to the city and it wasn’t as easy for him to go to an actual farmer’s market.

It seemed he would just head to the major supermarket nearby instead. Zheng Ren patted Chief Resident Shen’s shoulder and watched him leave in a hurry.

Maybe he really did treat Gu Lili and her husband to a meal. Although Gu Lili did not know the love in his heart back then, this kid could be considered to have fulfilled a dream.

At this point, he wasn’t the chief resident of Imperial Capital Hospital. After work, he ran away like a rabbit. Zheng Ren looked at his back and smiled.

Being a chief resident was hard work. However, if one had the intention, when one was a chief resident, he or she would be so focused on performing surgeries to the point they’d be traumatized by it. For a doctor who was still growing, it was a huge improvement.

What specialist? It could not even be compared to a chief resident.

It was just that Zheng Ren’s level of improvement did not depend on this.

There was still time. The Imperial Capital Hospital was far away from the Golden Palm residential area.

During the evening rush hour, it would take less than three hours to run back and forth. It was estimated that he might not even make it in time if he took the long way.

Zheng Ren felt that he might as well take the subway home. This seemed to be faster.

However, Little Yiren said it to wait, so he decided to just listen to her. After buying groceries, he just quietly waited for her to pick him up.

This was really good.

As for time, he could go to the library and read some books while he waited for Little Yiren. The convenience provided by the System was very convenient.

Zheng Ren slowly walked out of the hospital and wandered in the sunset.

Such a leisurely time, when had he last been able to do such a thing? It had long been blurred in Zheng Ren’s memory.

Ever since he became the chief resident of Sea City General Hospital, he had been on the run. Now that he thought about it, he felt like he was in a dream.

Zheng Ren thought about it and took out his phone. He found Old Chief Physician Pan’s number and dialed it.

The phone rang for a long time but the old chief did not answer.

He should be driving home, was what Zheng Ren guessed.

He did not care. When he walked out of the hospital’s back door, he saw a big supermarket standing in front of him.

The bustling crowd was active and noisy.

Zheng Ren joined the crowd and entered the supermarket.

In the past, he only came to the supermarket to buy various instant noodles and condiments. But now that he wanted to buy vegetables, Zheng Ren tried his best to shift his gaze away from the various instant noodles and slowly walked forward.

His heart was calm and happy.

After circling a few circles, Zheng Ren followed the signs and found the place where the vegetables were sold.

Ginger, 2.70 yuan per catty, garlic, 3.95 yuan per catty, zucchini, 1.25 yuan per catty…

Xie Yiren’s WeChat mentioned nine kinds of vegetables, and she also wrote how much she wanted to buy.

There were not many of them. It seemed that they were only needed for cooking today. The remaining bit might be useful tomorrow morning. As for tomorrow, she still needed to buy fresh vegetables.

If it were in the past, Zheng Ren would definitely feel that doing this was a waste of time.

But now, Zheng Ren kept recalling the contents of Xie Yiren’s text messages in his mind. He honestly selected the types and quantities according to Xie Yiren’s instructions as best as he could.

After buying the vegetables, there were very few of them. Zheng Ren carried a red basket and found the checkout counter. He queued up to pay the bill.

There were some people in the queue. The queue slowly moved forward. Zheng Ren did not have time to go to the System library to read. After all, if he stood there foolishly, not only would others treat him as a nuisance, he would not be able to get in the queue even after a few hours.

Was it a waste of time?

It was not.

This was how life was supposed to be. Rice, firewood, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, going to work to support the family… It seemed like people needed to work together to support their family.

Thinking of this, Zheng Ren began to worry again.

He hadn’t met his father-in-law yet. Now that he thought about it, it really made him distressed. What if Little Yiren’s parents didn’t agree? Zheng Ren didn’t think that just because he was a candidate for the Nobel Prize, he could get the favor of his father-in-law.

Joy and distress mixed together. Zheng Ren slowly walked forward with the vegetables as the phone in his hand rang.

Zheng Ren took a look and saw that it was Old Chief Physician Pan.

“Chief Physician Pan!” Zheng Ren picked up the phone, and as if he was reporting himself at Sea City General Hospital, he unconsciously straightened his back.

The other side of the phone was very noisy. There must be emergency treatment. Zheng Ren smiled slightly.

“Zheng Ren, what’s the matter?” Old Chief Physician Pan was not as enthusiastic as he had imagined. Instead, he asked directly.

Zheng Ren was in a daze for a moment. How was he supposed to reply to that?

“It’s nothing. I just missed you. Let me give you a call to say hello,” Zheng Ren said.

“I’m busy,” Old Chief Physician Pan said hurriedly. “Xiao Song, increase the speed of the blood transfusion. 100 drops per minute.”

Hmm? This was…an ambulance?

“I’ve brought the first-aid ambulance to Chengdu. I’m transferring the patient. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first,” Old Chief Physician Pan said.

“You… Be careful of your health,” Zheng Ren said, worried.

“Don’t worry, I’m all good.” Old Chief Physician Pan hurriedly hung up the phone.

It was like that. Zheng Ren could imagine that with his age, it would be difficult for him to bear the busy situation at the frontline.

But now, the most difficult time had passed.

Although there were still occasional emergencies, it would definitely not be like the early days. Moreover, the medical team behind them had a large number of people. There would definitely be no shortage of people.

If he did not let Old Chief Physician Pan go, he would probably roll up his sleeves and curse.

It was better this way. Old Chief Physician Pan was healthy and did not have any basic ailments. Xiao Song, who was the first-aid nurse, was also quite capable. There should not be any problems.

Zheng Ren thought about it and queued up to the cashier.

He paid the bill and asked for a large plastic bag. Zheng Ren followed the flow of people out of the supermarket.

It had only been less than an hour and was still early. Zheng Ren was not in a hurry. He found a place with fewer people, carrying his bag of groceries in hand.
