Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Back in 1996, when the daughter of the Old Xie family, Xie Wanying, said she wanted to be a doctor, many laughed. "Phoenix begets phoenix, dog spawns dog. A truck driver’s daughter becoming a doctor is as likely as a sow climbing a tree." "I’m not just going to be a doctor, I’m going to be a female chest surgeon," said Xie Wanying. Her words provoked even greater waves of disdain within the doctors' community. Relatives who were doctors ridiculed her mercilessly: "Do you know how high the admission scores are for medical students? Do you think you can make it?" "There are zero female chief chest surgeons in the country. Who do you think you are!" A bunch of people mocked her: "You'll probably only get into a third-rate medical college and end up as a health worker in a small county town. It's easy to imagine what sort of marriage you'll have." After the college entrance exams, Xie Wanying entered the top surgical class in the country with the highest science scores in the province, with department heads in the Capital’s top-tier hospitals vying for her from her internship beginnings. "Student Xie Wanying, come to our digestive surgery department." "No, she must come to our urological surgery—" "Pediatric surgery is in short supply of female doctors like student Xie Wanying." Circles of relatives and friends: … At this time, Xie Wanying independently completed the youngest Tetralogy of Fallot surgery in the country, represented the national association of chest surgery at an international medical forum, and published the world’s first minimally invasive heart valve repair surgery, becoming truly the foremost surgeon in the field of female surgery! As for the marriage concerns that everyone "worried" about: A brother from the Returned Overseas Faction, a hot bachelor within the Capital, changed his QQ profile picture to Junior Sister Xie. The young CEO, a handsome man, came to the hospital every day with flowers, keen to offer a diamond ring. Not to mention, a whole host of suitors had long since worn a path to the Old Xie Family's doorstep...

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered.

When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine.

However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom. Edgar Allan Poe

A great read and definitely a very unique writing style. Reminds me of Edgar Allan Poe. The author stays true to their MC. Every sentence, every scene is steeped with a distinct tension and atmosphere. The novel is very immersive. Updates are stable and character are very well portrayed. The story hits the ground running. The world building is distinctive too, where you can feel the futuristic setting. Thank you so much author. Please keep up the great work. I look forward to reading it.

Very nice novel, MC is very well-rounded and feels realistic. The environment, as much as it is left vague forn now, feels really good and intriguing. Not much story developement for now, but i also like the sense of aimlessness of a guy suddenly thrust in Hell with no other suggestion than "Fall deeper". Very good grammar, i also really like the author's writing style; feeling a bit of an Edgar Allan Poe influence (maybe?) on the most delirious sections of inner thoughts. Overall, great job and keep it up!

Master, please teach me again.

After transmigrating to the world of immortal cultivation, Lin Xiu entered the Green Cloud Dao Sect, the leader of the five great immortal sects. He thought that he would open the path of immortal cultivation, but he fell into deep thought as he looked at the entrance examination. " The first question: If you cause trouble outside, it might affect the sect's reputation. How would you sever your relationship with the sect and shift the blame to the other four immortal sects?" " Second question: If the disciples of the other four immortal sects killed the demonic path and obtained extremely high prestige, how could they make others mistake them as disciples of the Green Cloud Dao Sect and attribute all the prestige to the sect?" " Third question: If you were a spy sent by a sect to the other four immortal sects, and you went to secretly learn peerless martial arts but were discovered, how would you safely bring the martial arts back?" "The above are all ifs. Please answer boldly." One day, in the world of the Nine Prefectures, resentful cultivators gathered at the Green Cloud Daoist Sect's mountain gate and asked them to hand over the spy who had secretly learned. "Do you know who the spy is?" Big Sister asked Lin Xiu. "Is there anyone in our sect who isn't?" Lin Xiu replied in a daze. Big Sister nodded, indicating that it was true. ......
