Chapter 2: The Cold-Faced Doctor x The Wealthy and Powerful CEO 02

On the way back.

Lu Yan stared straight ahead expressionlessly, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly it creaked.

“System, go back to the Quick Transmigration Bureau right now. I want to transfer back to my original department immediately.”

He thought about it again and again, he just couldn’t take it anymore. He would rather bleed and be injured in a non-CP mission world than suffer this mental attack.

Physical wounds could heal, but wounds to the soul were irreparable.

System 729 said softly, 【Host, we were poached by the Romance Department. They won’t let us go back to our original department so easily.】

It was precisely because the Romance Department’s performance was getting worse and worse that they poached the ace of the Non-CP Department, hoping that Lu Yan could help them boost their performance.

After all, since Lu Yan entered the Quick Transmigration Bureau, he had created many myths for the Non-CP Department, and no one had broken his record to this day.

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow, his cold eyes like a sharp blade.

“I entered the Quick Transmigration Bureau to earn merit, not to torture myself.”

He paused, “Go talk to the head. Either let me leave, or adjust my missions, the further away from the male and female leads the better.”

He couldn’t stand this pair of lunatics for even a moment.

System 729: 【You are using a retreat as an advance, I think it’s still feasible.】

【Wait for me, I’ll be back soon.】

Lu Yan looked straight ahead, stepped on the gas pedal, and sped back home.

His family was not poor in this life. The largest and best hospital in Jiangdu City was his family’s, and his parents were both top-notch doctors in the country. He himself was a medical school graduate with a bachelor’s, master’s, and doctorate degrees.

After all, he was someone who could be friends with a CEO, so the Lu family’s strength was not to be underestimated.

Because this was Lu Yan’s first time doing a Romance Department mission, he used his real name this time. It wouldn’t be like that in the next world.

This was a special case only for novice missions.

Lu Yan returned to his room, took a hot shower, and fell asleep soundly.

Even if the Emperor of Heaven himself came, he wouldn’t let him go out to be a tool again.

The next day at noon.

Lu Yan’s face was as usual, he sat upright in his office, his white coat giving him a sense of coldness and righteousness.

His skin was cold white, his facial features were sharp and handsome, every stroke was so perfect that it was impossible to look away.

He sent away his last patient, took off his white coat, and was about to go to the hospital cafeteria for lunch when he heard an anxious cry from outside.

“Doctor, is there a doctor?”

Lu Yan put on his white coat again and quickly walked towards the source of the sound.

He quickly went down the stairs and looked at the man in black who was clutching his stomach and unable to speak.

The man was being supported by his assistant, who wore glasses. He was pressing his right abdomen with his right hand, his facial features were sharp, and his tough face was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Lu Yan quickly walked to his side and reached out to support the tall man.

“I’m the chief surgeon.” He first stated his identity and then asked, “Where does it hurt?”

Lin, the assistant beside the man in black, quickly said, “My boss suddenly had severe abdominal pain, and it’s getting worse. His temperature is also rising.”

Lu Yan touched the patient’s forehead, “He does have a fever.”

“Besides that, are you nauseous? Have you vomited?”

Lin thought for a moment and said, “He was nauseous on the way here, and he vomited once. I don’t know if it’s food poisoning.”

Lu Yan looked up at the little nurse next to him and said calmly, “Push the medical bed over, take the patient to the nearest empty examination room.”

The little nurse obeyed and took the man in black, who looked like a CEO, to the gurney. Then, she pushed him away with her companion.

Lu Yan rolled up his sleeves, but his eyes fell on the man’s right hand on the gurney.

The man had been holding his lower right abdomen with his right hand. Could it be acute appendicitis?!

He followed the little nurse into the consultation room, walked to the bedside, pressed on the patient’s abdomen, pressed deeply on the abdominal muscles and then suddenly retracted his fingers. The patient had intense rebound tenderness, which gave Lu Yan a rough idea.

“Preliminary diagnosis is acute appendicitis, but it needs to be confirmed by abdominal ultrasound and blood routine tests. Hold on a little longer.”

He gently comforted the man who was in excruciating pain, and then looked at the two little nurses next to him.

“Xiao Zhang, prepare for the blood test.”

He said calmly, “Xiao Xu, take him for an abdominal ultrasound.”

Under Lu Yan’s instructions, the makeshift consultation room quickly became busy.

After a while, Lu Yan looked at the results of the two tests in his hand and finally confirmed that the patient he had taken over was indeed suffering from acute appendicitis.

“Shen Du, have your assistant help you with the admission procedures. I’ll schedule your surgery for tonight. Have your family come and accompany you.”

“You won’t be able to be discharged until at least five days, you can’t be without someone to take care of you.”

The man in black, named Shen Du, weakly raised his head and looked at Lu Yan’s handsome face. His looks would have been outstanding even in the entertainment industry, with a high nose bridge and a beautiful jawline.

He struggled to open his mouth, “What’s your name?”

Even he himself couldn’t explain why, he who only cared about making money, suddenly wanted to know more about the young doctor in front of him.

His heart beat faster, and every beat made him feel a strange flutter.

Lu Yan raised his work ID, “Lu Yan, the Lu of ‘Yo Yo Lu Ming’, the Yan of ‘Yi Yan Jiu Ding’.”

It had been a long time since he used his real name in the mission world, so whenever someone asked, he would not hesitate to tell them.

But Shen Du, looking at the young man who was introducing himself so seriously, his long-dead heart skipped a beat, and his breathing became more and more erratic.

“Lu Yan…” He whispered, his eyes uncontrollably fixed on Lu Yan.

Lu Yan didn’t hear his call, he was next to Lin, the assistant, reminding him of the precautions.

“I’ve scheduled the appendectomy for Mr. Shen for eight o’clock tonight. Remember to have him fast and refrain from drinking water for eight hours before the surgery, and bring him in for a pre-operative check-up in the afternoon to rule out any contraindications for surgery.”

Lin nodded repeatedly. He couldn’t believe that his boss, who was working fine, had suddenly fallen ill and was now in the hospital needing surgery.

Lu Yan turned to Shen Du on the bed, his voice soft as he comforted him, “Stay optimistic, this is a very common surgery, don’t worry.”

His voice was soft and slow, like he was comforting an injured little animal.

Shen Du nodded slightly, “Thank you, Dr. Lu.”

He really liked Lu Yan’s gentleness beneath his cold exterior, and he also liked Lu Yan’s voice. He wanted to hug and cuddle with the man in front of him…

Lu Yan clearly didn’t expect that the man who was just writhing in pain was now thinking about him. He was arranging Shen Du’s surgery.

“Xiao Xu, take them to the inpatient department to handle the admission procedures later.”

At this time, he was completely unaware of Shen Du’s thoughts, and he would soon be shocked and dumbfounded, unable to understand what the other man liked about him.

He had done so many career-oriented missions that he couldn’t understand the beauty of love.

And their intersection was not just that, the gears of fate had already begun to turn.
