Chapter 12 There's a Evil Dragon in Your Heart_3

```

He remembered that when he had previously gone to the same pharmacy for medication, it had always been for a cold; the first pharmacist had given him only one type of medicine, while the second time, another pharmacist grabbed four types for him in one go.

He didn't know which was better, only that people were different.

Passing by the parking space, he didn't see Su Qing's blue BMW; it was apparent he was the first to arrive at the office.

He replaced the borrowed medical records, opened the windows for ventilation, put on his white coat, and went to the residential area.

Residential area, 101.

"You're here." Zhao Wenjie was sitting cross-legged on the bed.

"You're here." Gu Ran replied.

Mrs. Wang was also there with him.

Like a Wong Kar-wai film.

"Sit." Zhao Wenjie motioned to the space beside him.

Gu Ran took off his shoes and sat down on the bed.

"Look at the sun and close your eyes." Zhao Wenjie said.

Gu Ran looked at the sun, then closed his eyes; his vision was dark yet glaring, like a battle between the armies of light and darkness.

"Take a deep breath, and then exhale vigorously."

Gu Ran did as instructed.

"Hold it, then imagine: a vast and fertile land, an invincible dragon, and you, waking up in a thatched cottage.

"You are the son of a farmer, preparing to slay the dragon.

"You step out of the cottage, gathering funds as best as you can, looking for weapons and equipment, facing every challenge you can imagine, all for the purpose of slaying the dragon."

After a while, Gu Ran opened his eyes and said, "I have slain the dragon."

Zhao Wenjie shook his head: "If you had really slain that dragon, then you would have learned Inner Strength; you haven't overcome all the difficulties, nor have you defeated the true dragon."

He went on to say, "Don't be in a hurry, with your talents, you can grasp the basics in three years."

Gu Ran nodded, "Understood."

He then asked Zhao Wenjie, "You say I have talent, but what do you base that judgment on?"

"What do you think?" Zhao Wenjie countered.

"I am not sure." How could Gu Ran possibly know what a mental patient was thinking?

Mrs. Wang said, "Good bone structure? A Spiritual Root?"

Zhao Wenjie told her to read fewer novels, as it's easy to lose touch with reality, and Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes at him.

"To slay a dragon," the Inner Strength expert Zhao Wenjie sighed, "one naturally needs to have a dragon in their heart to be able to slay it."

It is true, some mental patients do have a self-consistent logic.

"Do you mean I have an evil dragon in my heart?" Gu Ran was curious.

"Don't you?" Zhao Wenjie asked back.

"If you're referring to desire, then I certainly do."

"Ying~" Mrs. Wang covered her face with the medical records, embarrassed.

"Figure it out yourself." Zhao Wenjie had the demeanor of a master, teaching in the style that the guru leads the way, personal cultivation depends on the individual.

Gu Ran got off the bed and returned to his role as a doctor, asking if Zhao had experienced any hallucinations or heard voices.

After completing the ward round, he exited the room to find Nurse Wang shyly clutching the medical records and following closely behind Gu Ran, as if instead of heading to the nursing station, they were on their way to the civil affairs bureau.

The handsome and spirited doctor Gu Ran, wearing a white coat and with his hands in his pockets, walked ahead with a straight posture;

The young and beautiful nurse Wang Jiajia, holding the medical records and petite in stature, followed behind;

——She thought it was very romantic.

"Nurse Wang." Gu Ran turned back.

"Yes!" Wang Jiajia promptly responded.

"Do me a favor and send Zhao Wenjie's medical records and his family information to my computer."

"Sure thing."

"Thank you." Gu Ran gave a slight smile.

"Mr. Gu."

"Hmm?"

"You're very handsome."

"...Is that so? I'm not as good-looking as Mr. Wei."

"Ah? Wei Hong? The real estate lady calls him the ugly doctor."

"What?" Gu Ran was a bit surprised; Wei Hong wasn't conventionally handsome, but definitely not ugly, with well-proportioned features, pleasant to the eye.

Those who are pleasant to the eye sometimes are more in demand than beauties or hunks, because they have a certain je ne sais quoi, creating the illusion of 'This person isn't especially good-looking, but they're just my type.'

"It's mainly because Dr. Wei was rude to the real estate lady and kept pushing her to be discharged quickly."

That made sense.

Gu Ran nodded.

"Private Diary": August 4th, the first Saturday, sunny, went out alone for fun, love the aquarium the most, that girl who asked for my WeChat, her legs were so white.

A little poem——

"Me, the cargo ship"

At sea, a cargo ship and I play seesaw

On the shore, I walk with the waves

"Private Diary": August 5th, Sunday, sunny sunny sunny, all clear, didn't leave the house, amused myself.

Did Kui Si get a breast augmentation?

She used to look great, now it's unbalanced and lacks aesthetic appeal, from now on I'll stop watching Kui Si.

Advice to all girls: Don't get breast implants, natural is most beautiful, these are Mr. Gu's heartfelt words, no deception involved, Kui Si's change proves it.

"Private Diary": August 6th, Monday, the weather forecast says it will rain tomorrow, today remains clear, did a ward round in the morning, a patient told me I have an evil dragon inside.

See my evil dragon roar: "Awooo~"

"Doctor's Diary":

August 6th, Monday.

The Inner Strength expert Zhao Wenjie said I have an evil dragon within, his mental state is worse than I anticipated, he's even trying to spread his worldview, such a patient should be moved into the residential area.

Will continue to observe, if it's really serious, I will suggest transferring him into the residential area.
