In the morning, warm sunlight shone on the bed. The person covered by the blanket looked like he was covered by yellow sand. It was so calm and holy that it made others have the urge to kneel down.
Ling Ran felt the excitement of the sunlight and had his eyelashes flutter. Then, he slowly opened his eyes.
A young lady immediately walked forward and used her trained voice that will first make her speak softly before she increased the volume of her voice and gently asked, “Doctor Ling, are you awake? What do you want to get?”
Ling Ran quirked an eyebrow. “What?”
“Breakfast. Do you want to have your breakfast?” A sincere smile was seen on the face of this beautiful lady instead of a professional smile. She was very good with the professional smile, but when she saw such a handsome doctor like Ling Ran, she would naturally smile sincerely. She could not even use her professional smile even if she wanted to do so.
Ling Ran breathed out and brought out one of his arms from under the blanket. Then, he sensed the temperature outside and asked again, “How did you get in?”
“I just pushed the door to come in,” the beautiful lady said gently, “I’m a maid of the manor, Selena. I’m Sino-Portuguese, so I can speak Mandarin, Portuguese, and English. If you need any help, you are welcome to find me anytime.”
“Oh,” Ling Ran replied, and he was still immersed in the condition of the room. He continued to ask, “I remember that I had locked the door yesterday.”
“I don’t quite know that. But when I came up just now, the butler opened the door to do some checking.”
“The butler entered my room too?”
“It’s because Mister Tian Guozheng wanted to express his gratitude to you. He deliberately reminded the butler to ensure your stay is comfortable. That’s why he sent the butler to check your room.”
Ling Ran was silent for a few seconds and said, “Since Mister Tian Guozheng’s surgery is completed, I want to go back home as soon as possible.”
“But…” Selena hesitated for a few seconds, opened her eyes widely and said, “Mister Tian Guozheng is a super-rich man. He’ll provide you with a lucrative service as your host and introduce some Brazillian stars to you. Do you like soccer? Brazil has the most soccer athletes. If Doctor Ling requested it, Mister Tian Guozheng should be able to invite them. He used to invite the sports stars to the parties he threw last time.”
“Is there any soccer athlete who got knee injuries or had their Achilles tendons torn?” Ling Ran sat up, as it was improper to lie down.
Selena felt disappointed when she saw Ling Ran wearing pajamas. She pouted and remembered what Ling Ran said. She felt amused and said, “If you must have soccer athletes who have knee injuries or their Achilles tendons injured, Mister Tian Guozheng should be able to look for them for you. Otherwise, we can pay them to ride a horse…”
Selena immediately closed her mouth, “I was rambling.”
“Rambling?” Ling Ran felt lost.
Selena instantly relaxed and quickly asked, “What breakfast would you like to have?”
“What choices do you have?”
“We have many choices for breakfast. You can choose anything you like.” Selene smiled lightly.
“Deep-fried dough sticks and tofu pudding,” Ling Ran immediately answered.
Selena blinked, smiled faintly, and said, “I understand.”
Ling Ran started to brush up after she went out.
After brushing up, he saw a sumptuous breakfast laid out on the table. There were deep-fried dough sticks, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, bacon, hot dogs, grilled meat, porridge, and…
“Mapo tofu?” Ling Ran looked at the bowl in front of him.
“The chef said that it’s like tofu pudding broken into pieces.” Selena nodded seriously.
Ling Ran looked at Selena and said seriously, “This is Mapo tofu.”
“Impossible. We have hosted Chinese before, and they said it was very delicious. It is tofu pudding.” Selena suddenly remembered something. She quickly took out her phone and said, “Let me do a search.”
Ling Ran then picked other food and ate it. When he was almost full, he saw that Selena had finished her search and stared blankly at her phone.
“You found it?”
“Yes. The chef lied to me since young and said that this is tofu pudding.” Selena’s trust of people, the world, and values seemed to be broken.
Ling Ran just wanted to ensure that she was not mentally-ill and nodded. Then, he said, “I’ll go out and take a walk.”
After he said that, Ling Ran went out and went down the floor.
The beautiful Selena stared at the big mirror in the room and felt even sadder.
In front of the manor, a few cowboys used wood to build a long bench and a small hut.
Yu Yuan and Ma Yanlin woke up very early. They were holding a cup of tea, leaning against the wall, and looking at them working.
When they did not have to perform surgeries with Ling Ran, both of them felt very free but empty at the same time.
“Doctor Ling.” Ma Yanlin was the first to see Ling Ran. He greeted him, smiled, and said, “Do you know what they are doing?”
Ling Ran shook his head.
They’re making a rehabilitation room,” Ma Yanlin said with an impressed tone, “Can you imagine it? We told him that once he can walk around, he can start with rehabilitation. The patient asked for specific requirements, and they started building a rehabilitation room.”
Ling Ran looked at the long corridor that was dozens of feet long and asked, “Isn’t that really long? Didn’t you tell him about the specifications?”
“He said that he will not turn back once he starts rehabilitation. That’s why he intends to build a 656 feet corridor to connect this place to the shieling. It will be more convenient for him to look at the horses during rainy days.” Ma Yanlin was so envious that he was drooling. “Those are all high-grade logs. If I had so many good logs, I’d bring them back to the country and sell them back to Lu Wenbin…”
Yu Yuan laughed out loud when she heard that. She raised her head and looked at Ma Yanlin’s chin, “Your good-for-nothing look is quite similar to Lu Wenbin’s.”
…..
“Doctor Ling.” Tian Guozheng came down while he was in the wheelchair.
Some patients who received knee arthroscopy recovered slower, and they might only be able to get down from the bed after three to four days. Meanwhile, it was normal for those who recovered quickly to get down from the bed on the second day itself.
Tian Guozheng let Ling Ran perform the surgery for him. He might not dare to apply too much strength on his knee, but he looked much better. The usual pain on the knee was now replaced by the pain on the spot where the incision happened. His mood became better as the pain felt satisfying because it meant that he was getting better.
When Tian Guozheng saw Ling Ran at this moment, he smiled and said, “Doctor Ling, you woke up so early. Have you eaten your breakfast? Zheng’s Farm is famous for its sumptuous breakfast. Usually, it has more than thirty types of breakfast. Our head chef knows how to make dishes from more than thirty countries, and it can satisfy everyone.”
Ling Ran nodded slightly.
Tian Guozheng was used to Ling Ran’s attitude too. He smiled and said, “Doctor Ling, Ma Yanlin, both of you are not in a hurry to go back, right? Is there any activity that you like? I can arrange them for you.”
Ma Yanlin turned around and noticed that Ling Ran was thinking about something. He immediately said, “Doctor Ling, if we go back now, no hospital beds are free.”
“Okay.” Ling Ran thought about it and said, “I hope to perform surgery for Brazillian sports stars.”
Tian Guozheng looked at Ling Ran’s handsome face, sighed, dug his ears, and said, “I might have heard wrongly just now. You want to get signatures from Brazillian sports stars?”
“The informed consent forms must be signed, of course.” Ling Ran reinterpreted Tian Guozheng’s words.
Ma Yanlin patted his head and said, “Let us go for a ride then.”
“Or travel around.” Yu Yuan jumped gently.
“Oh, Doctor Yu… If you like to travel, that should not be a problem,” Tian Guozheng immediately said, “You can go with my private jet. If it is nearer, you can just take the helicopter. Brazil is very large, and the roads in some places are not very smooth to walk…”
