The Surgeon's Studio

"Boss, let's have dinner tonight." Su Yun wobbled in from outside and called out to Zheng Ren from afar.

"Doctor, I don't know your name, but I still want to thank you." After the woman heard Su Yun's words, she said indifferently,""I won't disturb you anymore, I'm leaving."

After she finished speaking, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. It was unknown if she was trying to hold back the sadness in her heart or if she wanted to leave a smile for Zheng Ren. But in the end, he left with a blank expression.

Su Yun walked over and came face to face with the woman.

He was stunned for a moment, as if he had seen a ghost."You ... You ... Why are you ..."

The woman turned her body slightly to let Su Yun pass and walked out slowly.

Su Yun looked at the woman's back as she disappeared out of the door. He frowned and walked to Zheng Ren's side.""Why does he look like the person I met at the entrance of the ultrasound room half a year ago?"

Zheng Ren felt that face blindness was a serious injury. Su Yun had completely suppressed him in this field.

He nodded in silence.

Su Yun had long noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He was a quick-witted person, and with his rich clinical experience, he could guess what had happened in an instant.

"Boss, the child is still alive?"

"I don't think it's going to work." Zheng Ren sighed."She said that she'll be discharged automatically today. She's going to take the child to see the sun and the grass."

"You can't either?" Su Yun asked.

Zheng Ren recalled the situation when he saw the little boy half a year ago. At that time, he was already in the final stage of cancer, and there was no cure. He did not know what kind of price the woman had to pay to extend the child's life by several months.

He couldn't even do it back then. As for now ... It probably wouldn't be possible. It was estimated that the tumor tissue had already fully metastases, which could not be solved by surgery. He was improving, but the tumor was also spreading.

He shook his head and remained silent.

"Don't think about it anymore," Su Yun patted Zheng Ren's shoulder."There's a limit to human strength."

"But I want to see him." Zheng Ren said in a deep voice.

"Eh? You're not scared anymore?" Su Yun was a little surprised.

"I've only seen him once. I wonder how he is now. " Zheng Ren said seriously,"I'm going to meet him and send him out of the hospital. I'll also say a few words to him."

"You go by yourself, I'm not interested in this kind of thing." Su Yun staggered into the office.

Zheng Ren thought for a moment, then strode out. He turned around and left the ward area, heading straight to the place where the hospitalization fees were settled.

In fact, he didn't have any thoughts about it. He didn't have any deep communication with the little boy in the past, and they didn't even speak more than five sentences.

The related memories became blurry with the passage of time. Zheng Ren could not even remember if the little boy had called him uncle or brother.

He seemed to be an uncle. At that time, he even criticized him in his heart.

As he let his thoughts run wild, he arrived at the payment counter.

There was a long line of people in front of more than a dozen Windows. It was not very troublesome for Zheng Ren to find someone. In a sense, it was easier to find a familiar face in a group of pixels than other people.

The woman was waiting in line at window No. 3. She looked like a forty or fifty-year-old in the crowd. Her back was slightly bent, and she was breathless from the pressure of life and endless sadness.

Parting, life and death, these were the most important things in the world.

Zheng Ren sighed, but he did not hesitate. He walked to the woman and extended his hand.

"I'm Zheng Ren. You can just call me Doctor Zheng." Zheng Ren introduced himself in a serious manner.

"Er ..." The woman was dazed for a moment. She looked at Zheng Ren in confusion, not understanding why this young doctor had chased her all the way here.

However, she was obviously well-educated. She reached out her hand out of habit and shook Zheng Ren's hand, saying softly,""I'm Wen xiaonuan, nice to meet you. "

"Which Ward is the child in? can I go and visit him?" Zheng Ren asked.

The woman looked into Zheng Ren's eyes. She was confused, but she still said,""Department of Oncology, bed 7-18,"

"I'll go see the child. " Zheng Ren shook hands with the woman, and they could be considered to have gotten to know each other. He then turned around and left.

Department 3 Oncology. Zheng Ren mumbled in his heart. He did not care what kind of gaze the woman would use to look at him.

He strode to the elevator of the third inpatient department. He was not in a hurry to take the fire escape, but instead, he squeezed into the elevator to the 18th floor like the others.

The elevator was bustling with people, and Zheng Ren waited for a long time before he got in.

Zheng Ren didn't like crowded places. After all, the more people there were, the noisier it was. He was very annoyed. But today, he felt different.

It was already good enough that they were still alive and could talk and laugh. Even if they didn't need all these, even if many people had a sad look on their faces, as long as they could survive, it was a very lucky thing.

This place was bustling with activity, but it also had the smell of the mortal world.

On the 18th floor, Zheng Ren got off the elevator and walked to the third Oncology Department.

In Room 7, bed 18, the little boy was looking at the ceiling, deep in thought. She hadn't seen him for half a year and he had lost a lot of weight. There was a big bump on her neck, and her condition seemed to be very serious. His eyes were still lively, but he was bored.

A blood-red system panel appeared in front of Zheng Ren.

All kinds of diagnosis for tumor metastasis were fatal.

This was within Zheng Ren's expectations. It would be strange if they were all healed.

He walked over slowly. The little boy sensed that someone was coming and shifted his eyes away from the ceiling to look at Zheng Ren.

"Eh? Uncle, why are you here?" His voice was hoarse, and it was difficult for him to speak. But even so, he was still mischievous and happy, as if he had no idea what he was going to face.

Zheng Ren smiled and sat on the White stool beside the bed.""I'm here to see you,"

"Are you alright?" The little boy asked.

"I'm fine. How about you?"

"I'm just average, but my mom said she'll take me to see the grass after I'm discharged." "It's the kind of grass in the wild,"said the little boy."It's a boundless grassland. It's autumn now, you won't be able to see it if you don't go. "

Is it autumn? Zheng Ren was not very sensitive to the changes in the Four Seasons. If Yiren didn't help him change his clothes, Zheng Ren wouldn't even remember. He would probably spend a year changing one or two sets of clothes in the Department every day.

Sitting in front of the bed, Zheng Ren didn't know what to say.

The little boy, on the other hand, was very talkative. His voice was hoarse because the tumor had invaded his thyroid, cervical spine, and windpipe.

He kept talking as if Zheng Ren was a big toy and a big friend.

"You look pretty good." After a few minutes, the little boy's energy was almost depleted and he was speaking intermittently. Zheng Ren then took over and asked.

"Yes, I will try my best to live on." "By the way, my name is Shi Jian. Shi as in stone, Jian as in strong. What about you, uncle?" the little boy said.
