Doctor Zhou Ze!

"No, you have to keep cheating!"

"..." Doctor Lin. Her lips parted slightly. She was a little lost, and a little confused.

Was her 'husband' not willing to forgive her? Or did her 'husband' had a fetish of wearing a hat with a certain color?

Doctor Lin had chosen to compromise under a strong sense of guilt and pressure. The truth was, of the two options, most people would choose the second option if they were not stupid or naive.

The first option was getting one million and a bookstore that was making a loss.

The second option was getting her and everything she had. Wouldn't that include the one million, too?

Besides, it was not like she was an ugly rich woman.

However, to Zhou Ze, the situation he was in was a lot trickier.

-I've been busy for so long and now she's telling me that she wants to forget me so she could accept her fate and live with that asshole Xu Le happily ever after?-

There was no way Zhou Ze would allow it to happen! He was proud that he had put 'the green hat' on someone else's head. The sense of achievement was off the charts!

But now, it was his turn to wear 'the green hat'. It did not feel good anymore.

Zhou Ze pointed at himself and said in a serious voice, "I'm not Xu Le. I am Zhou Ze."

Doctor Lin was startled.

The two were silent for a long time.

Doctor Lin let out a sigh and said, "You can choose either option. I admit that I've done something wrong, but you shouldn't play me like that. Perhaps you are still holding a grudge against me, is that it?"

Zhou Ze shrugged, "I'm really Zhou Ze. I died in the car accident, but for some reason, I woke up and claimed this guy's body. I don't know if you read novels or watch TV dramas, but I'm pretty sure it's quite a typical scene."

"Whatever you say..." Doctor Lin said.

However, Zhou Ze had a feeling that the woman was most likely going to find him a psychiatrist. If anything worse, she might even send him to a psychiatric hospital.

The sound of an ambulance came from the distance. The hospital suddenly became lively.

"I'll go take a look," Doctor Lin stood up. She had given up on talking with her 'husband' for now. She believed her husband was suffering from a huge shock. She was feeling extremely guilty because of it.

The gyonshi who had been eavesdropping on the conversation walked up to Zhou Ze and said, "Boss, why didn't you show her your nails?"

"Why didn't you ask her to check if you're cold?" Zhou Ze asked.

The woman twisted her lips and said, "That might work, too. She would know once she sticks her hand in."

"I'm thinking of a gentler approach," Zhou Ze said. "As gentle as possible."

"You're being dramatic," the woman mocked her boss boldly.

"Yeah, I'm being dramatic. Aren't you too when you were secretly dating the poor scholar when you were the daughter of a wealthy family?" Zhou Ze stretched, "Come with me."

"Into the hospital?"

"Of course, it's so noisy there. Something serious must have happened. They won't have enough ER surgeons. Those interns wouldn't dare to operate on the patients since they are inexperienced. They can't take care of all the injured."

Zhou Ze headed into the hospital as he was talking. He went straight into the change room for the medical personnel.

"But boss, what does it have anything to do with you?"

Zhou Ze picked a white coat that was around his size and put on a mask.

"I was a doctor in my previous life, and Doctor Lin was my intern back then."

"Hehe, a relationship between a mentor and a student," the gyonshi put on a white coat too. She said with a hint of excitement, "Boss, then what should I do?"

"Choose a bgm for me," Zhou Ze pulled the gloves tight.

"Bgm?" The gyonshi was stunned.

"Because it's my time to put on a show," Zhou Ze took a deep breath and breathed out.

Everything felt so familiar.

-I'm back.-

------

"The doctors now are so different from the doctors back in my days." The woman looked a little odd in a nurse's dress.

"Mm," Zhou Ze did not comment on it.

"I'm feeling a little confused," the woman exclaimed. "I feel like I'm having a hard time adapting to the world; maybe I should go out more often," the woman probed him.

"That's nonsense. You even knew what Wanchai Ferry meant, and you're telling me you are having a hard time adapting?" Zhou Ze snapped.

The woman stuck her tongue out and said, "Boss, what kind of doctor were you before? I heard the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics is pretty good."

"Did you read novels when you're lying in the coffin?" Zhou Ze asked.

"What?" The woman was confused.

"Ophthalmology is gold, surgery is silver, and gynecology and obstetrics are the worst." Zhou Ze smiled, "Only people that are clueless or heavily influenced by literature would think that gynecology and obstetrics are enjoyable."

The lifts opened. A stretcher was pushed in by a few nurses.

Zhou Ze immediately walked over and asked, "What happened?"

The intern subconsciously responded as if he was answering his mentor, "The man has lost consciousness."

Zhou Ze's eyes glittered. He climbed onto the stretcher and yelled while doing CPR on the man, "Quick, to the emergency room!"

A few other nurses came to push the stretcher. The patients and relatives along the path quickly moved aside.

"People ahead, move aside!" Zhou Ze yelled.

Doctor Lin who had just done treating a patient came out while wiping the sweat on her forehead. She was stunned as soon as she saw the man that was doing CPR on the stretcher.

She quickly went over.

What was he doing? They were at the hospital!

As soon as they went into the emergency room, Zhou Ze gave the order, "Prepare the operation table and the intubation!"

"Got it," the probationary doctor answered. The nurses naturally obeyed the order too.

They all thought someone knew who the 'new doctor' was, but it turned out that they had totally misunderstood one another. However, they were also in an emergency, and Zhou Ze's tone and instructions did not make them feel he was a fake doctor.

Zhou Ze stood at the front of the operation table and prepared the intubation himself.

He reached out his left hand and said, "The guide-wire."

"Here," the nurse quickly handed the equipment to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze said to the probationary doctor, "Use the stethoscope to check the position."

"Got it." The probationary doctor did not seem as nervous. Many young doctors were the same; they knew what they were doing, but they were still too inexperienced to take the lead. They were better at following instructions.

The doctor put on the stethoscope and listened. He then nodded at Zhou Ze, "The position is fine."

Zhou Ze nodded, "Someone takes over, keep the CPR going."

"Yes," another nurse quickly came up to replace the one that was doing the CPR previously.

A nurse looked at the display and blurted out, "The patient is having ventricular fibrillation."

Zhou Ze raised his head, "Prepare the defibrillator."

"Understand."

The probationary doctor took out the scissors and cut the patient's clothes. Zhou Ze took over and continued to do CPR on the patient. He said, "Two hundred volts."

"Got it," the nurse proceeded to prepare the defibrillator, "It's ready."

Doctor Lin flipped the curtains and came in. She looked at the person that was working on the patient.

She had seen it right. It was Xu Le, her husband!

Doctor Lin pointed at Zhou Ze. She was infuriated. She had no clue what was happening to her husband. He just told her that he was Xu Le, so she assumed the man was completely out of his mind. However, she would not allow him to joke around with a patient's life!

"Get ready, back away!" Zhou Ze warned the people around him and stared at Doctor Lin.

Doctor Lin shuddered. A familiar feeling surged inside her body.

A familiar scene, a familiar tone, a familiar style...

She was struggling to find a word to say.

After the first discharge, Zhou Ze continued to do CPR while fixing his eyes on the monitor.

The patient's condition did not improve. Zhou Ze blurted out, "Again, two hundred volts!"

"Sure," the nurse proceeded to prepare the defibrillator, "Ready."

"Back off." Zhou Ze discharged it again. The patient's body shuddered after receiving the shock.

The probationary doctor continued to perform CPR on the patient.

Zhou Ze looked at the display. It finally returned to normal.

"The pulse is back, pull up the ECG," Zhou Ze said to the probationary doctor.

"Sure." The doctor immediately went to prepare the diagram and handed it to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze took a glance at the diagram, "Acute myocardial infarction, get ready for PCI."

"Yeah, sure thing!" The probationary doctor wiped his sweat and let out a relieved sigh.

Zhou Ze walked out of the emergency room.

Doctor Lin stood outside. She looked at him with a hint of doubt, disbelief, excitement, and fear.

Zhou Ze snapped at her, "What are you waiting for? There are so many patients waiting to be treated. Go help them! If you're scared or feel like crying, you can go home and cry on your bed while hugging your little doll after work!"

Doctor Lin burst out in tears. It was the same way that man had scolded her in the past.

Doctor Lin ran up to him and wrapped her arms around his waist. She stuck her face onto Zhou Ze's chest.

Zhou Ze was stunned. He had predicted different reactions that Doctor Lin might have after he spilled the beans.

Would she be scared? Would she suffer a mental breakdown? Would she be terrified?

However, he never thought something like this would happen.

Did the woman just throw herself into his arms? Was that it?

Zhou Ze was actually quite curious how a solemn single man like him had managed to win Doctor Lin's affection when she was still a young intern. But he somehow understood now. Could it be that Doctor Lin was suffering from Stockholm syndrome?

Did the woman fall in love with him just because he had been scolding her?

By the way, wouldn't a woman with the syndrome be willing to accept some extraordinary play in bed that normal people wouldn't?

Hehe...
