[Episode 8]

Nie Xiguang.

Xiguang!

Don't panic.

Look at me.

Can you hear me?

Answer me.

What day of the week is it?

Sun...

Sunday...

Xiguang!

How is she?

Hello?

This is Dorm Building 1,

Shuangyuan Photovoltaic

at No. 1 Yuguang Road, Industrial Park.

We have a fall from height.

Patient is unconscious.

We need an ambulance.

No visible cranial trauma.

No palpable scalp hematoma.

Vitals are stable.

But there was a brief loss of consciousness.

ETA to the hospital

is approximately 15 minutes.

[The Second Afflicted Hospital of Gu Su Medical University]

Xiguang.

Xiguang.

Nie Xiguang,

don't fall asleep and try to stay conscious.

I'm so dizzy.

Xiguang.

Don't do this to me.

Xiguang.

Xiguang.

You are okay.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

There was an emergency.

[Fang Shengyi]

Based on the initial assessment,

there's no major trauma.

We're sending her

for a CT scan first.

Family of the patient...

Why don't you go get cleaned up?

I...

Thanks.

I...

I'm fine, right?

What's your name?

Nie Xiguang.

And mine?

Lin Yusen.

Do you remember

how you fell?

I fell while climbing over the balcony.

I'm Sheng Xianmin's grandson.

Does that

ring a bell?

Sheng Xianmin?

You mean the Chairman of Shengyuan?

You never mentioned that before.

Good.

You're fully conscious.

You're in the clear.

All your tests came back normal,

and aside from a few scrapes, there's no real damage.

Still,

you'd better stay here for observation.

Yin Jie came with the ambulance,

and I told her to go back.

She'll come to look after you tomorrow.

She must have been terrified, right?

She was terrified?

Your "saint-like" compassion

is truly breathtaking.

You actually have the energy

to worry about others right now.

If you're really such a saint,

why on earth did you...?

Look, considering

everything I've been through,

could you

set aside your personal bias

and try being nice for once?

What are you crying for?

You're completely unharmed.

What is there to cry about?

Do I not even have the right

to cry anymore?

I wouldn't have fallen

if it weren't for your friend's scream.

You've put me through all this

and now I have to deal with all your snark.

Why can't I even have a good cry?

Because of me?

If not you, then who else?

I swear, meeting you is the worst luck

I've ever had.

First I tripped,

then I got hit by those parts,

and now...

Do you have any idea how exhausting the inventory was?

And now,

I've actually fallen off a building.

Nie Xiguang.

Lin Yusen.

I have a question.

Go ahead.

So what if I'm

Nie Chengyuan's daughter?

It's not like our families have some bad blood between us.

Why do you keep making things so difficult for me?

Are our families...

really at odds?

The Shengs and your father

have always been on good terms.

Then why?

I also want to know...

why...?

Nie Xiguang.

Does it hurt that much?

Me too.

What's going on with him?

I'm the one confronting him right now,

so why does it feel like

I'm the one who hurt him?

Are you

okay?

That word...

Ready? Lift.

[Emergency Room]

Are you still having trouble

focusing your vision?

Not at the moment.

About your hand, make sure you don't slack off on the PT.

It won't affect

your daily activities.

Doctor,

what about performing surgery?

He's a neurosurgeon.

Buddy,

I'm so sorry.

This is all my fault.

You spent over a decade in med school...

It was an accident.

I'm sorry.

Well, she...

Things came up, so she couldn't make it.

Next time

I'll make sure to bring her with me.

Don't bother.

Stop crying.

♪With its last chapter♪

Come on, Dr. Lin. Tell me.

So, what's the real story between you

and that little patient of yours?

You're being way too attentive.

She fell from a building,

and I'm her boss.

Isn't it only right that I'm concerned?

Wow, look at you.

You're practically glowing with "compassion."

She's still not feeling great

and needs to stay on the IV.

It's safer to keep her here for observation.

But if you get a patient with more urgent needs,

I'll have her clear out immediately.

Fine.

But seriously,

come clean.

Do you have a crush on her or what?

Can't you diagnose it yourself?

Already did.

Late-stage delayed lovesickness.

What's this?

Wait, it's not for me?

Ms. Chen made some congee.

It's for patients,

not for healthy people like you.

Xiguang,

you poor thing.

Are you okay now?

I'm so, so sorry.

I deserve to die for this.

If anything had happened to you...

If anything had happened,

I...

I might as well just go hang myself.

Why are you being so dramatic?

I'm fine.

It's just...

there's this throbbing pain every now and then.

So,

what did the doctor say?

Will these scrapes

on your forehead

and

your hand

leave any scars?

They definitely won't.

Don't worry.

I'm incredibly sorry.

Alright, that's enough.

It wasn't your fault.

Feel like eating some breakfast?

Yeah.

Careful.

Watch your legs.

Where did you guys get

this thermos?

I could have just ordered

from the hospital.

It's not ours.

We only brought some fruit

and this congee.

We ran into Mr. Lin downstairs.

He was just standing there, lost in thought.

He asked us to bring this up to you.

Seems his domestic helper

made it and sent it over.

Xiguang,

you're in a private room.

I don't think basic insurance

covers a private room, right?

What are you worried about?

Mr. Lin already settled the bill last night.

But honestly, it's the least he could do.

If his friend hadn't been screaming like that,

you wouldn't have been startled and fallen.

How do you know she was his friend

and not his girlfriend?

You didn't see

how harsh Mr. Lin was with her.

It was actually pretty scary.

The girl was terrified

when Xiguang fell,

but if she were his girlfriend,

he would've comforted her, right?

Instead, he completely ignored her.

From what I heard,

I think

they were just old classmates.

But Xiguang,

don't

be too hard on Mr. Lin.

He handled everything himself

after getting you to the hospital.

Oh, by the way,

you threw up

all over him yesterday.

I threw up all over him?

Yep.

Seriously, I'm good.

Don't sweat it.

Just go back.

I think

I'll probably be back

in the office tomorrow.

Don't even think about it.

You need to rest for a few more days.

Don't push yourself too hard.

We'll head to work now

and swing by after we finish.

Alright, we're heading out.

Go ahead.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

See ya.

But Xiguang,

don't be too hard on Mr. Lin.

He handled everything himself

after getting you

to the hospital.

Before the ambulance arrived,

he was giving you first aid and checking your vitals.

He even had to hold you up

while you threw up all over him.

Otherwise, you would've just slipped right off.

I wonder

how his hand is doing.

Yesterday, he just lunged forward

and caught you with one hand.

He hit the ground on his knees.

[Nie Xiguang: Thanks for yesterday.]

[Nie Xiguang: Thanks for yesterday.]

[Nie Xiguang] Thanks

for yesterday.

[Mr. Lin] No problem.

No problem?

♪Like a shadow chasing the light♪

I've said my thanks.

♪Always just one step away♪

That should be enough, right?

♪You pretend your smile is strong♪

♪But the pain still shows through♪

♪You are the sun in my life ♪

♪Yet I could not reach you through the long night♪

♪I can only wait in silence♪

[Mr. Lin] How are you feeling now?

♪Hoping the dawn will break♪

♪You are the sun in my life ♪

♪Yet I could not reach you through the long night♪

♪I can only wait in silence♪

♪Hoping the dawn will break♪

[Mr. Lin] How are you feeling now?

[Nie Xiguang] Sorry,

I just fell asleep.

I'm feeling much better now.

[Mr. Lin]

I'll check on you in a bit.

Wait, he's actually coming?

Talk about a man of his word.

I just happened to be passing by your door.

[No need]

Lie down.

You should get some proper rest.

I feel fine now.

Um...

I am so sorry.

Yin Jie told me

that last night,

I threw up all over you.

I was a doctor.

I've seen much worse.

Yin Jie said

your hand got hurt.

It's okay.

Nie Xiguang.

If I were to forget everything

that happened before,

what about you?

Can we wipe the slate clean...

for how I treated you, too?

Is he

asking for a truce?

[Forced overtime]

[Taking me to the hospital and getting thrown up on]

[His friend making me fall]

[Somehow cursing him into getting injured]

I don't really hold a grudge.

That's good.

But...

why the sudden talk

about wiping the slate clean?

Because I'm afraid...

I'm afraid of seeing patients cry.

Hold on. Was he actually

going to say

"I'm afraid of your tears"?

I don't usually cry anyway.

Dr. Lin.

Thought you went home.

What are you doing back here?

No sleep all night

and still going strong?

You're really

the legendary machine

of our med school.

A back-to-back shift

like mine

should've been yours.

Come on,

let me introduce you all,

my junior from both college

and grad school abroad,

Lin Yusen,

Dr. Lin.

I know you, Dr. Lin.

I've read your paper

on brainstem tumors.

Too bad

when I was there

for my fellowship,

I heard you'd already resigned.

So, Dr. Lin, where are you

stationed these days?

I'm actually not a doctor anymore.

What? Why?

Everyone has their own path.

Okay.

We can catch up later.

Nie Xiguang, right?

I'm Dr. Fang,

your attending physician.

Is your head still hurting?

A little bit.

It's like

a throbbing pain.

Where exactly?

That's normal.

After all, you fell from the second floor.

It's impossible to come away from that

completely unscathed.

It'll take time to recover.

Don't rush it.

Okay.

Judging by your scans,

there's nothing serious.

However,

it's best to stay in the hospital for observation for a bit longer.

Get some good rest.

I'll come by

another time.

Perfect chance for some alone time,

and you just walked out?

I had no reason to stay.

Are you serious?

You're never gonna get the girl like that.

Guess I'm gonna

play wingman for you.

By the way,

I actually have a surgery coming up.

It's right up your alley.

Mr. Lin.

You don't have to bring me breakfast.

I actually have something on the way.

It was just an afterthought.

Your attending physician

is an old classmate of mine.

He has a surgery coming up

and it's right up my alley.

So he asked me

to consult on the surgical plan.

Don't you have to work?

Yesterday, I worked until 3 AM

and now I'm on my annual leave.

Three point zero by two point seven centimeters.

It is in a tricky spot.

It's pressing against the brainstem.

Given the size and location,

I'd still recommend a craniotomy.

It offers a better success rate.

The patient

is leaning toward Gamma Knife.

I remember

you have a patient

with a similar tumor profile?

That one was even riskier.

I've seen the charts for that case.

Severe facial nerve

adhesion.

Yet somehow, you saved the hearing.

And no facial paralysis either.

That was incredible work.

There was

minor facial numbness post-op,

but it cleared up

within two weeks.

Dr. Lin, your preservation rate is insane.

I've only done a few cases.

Not enough for a real statistic.

I'd say luck played a big part.

He really does

love being a doctor.

That's pure skill.

With more surgeries,

that rate

will only go up.

Dr. Qin

is being so clueless.

He knows Lin quit,

but didn't even check why.

How could he say that?

[Just]

"Just?"

Just about time for dinner.

How about we all

grab a bite?

We've been slammed

with so many tasks lately.

Dinner time.

Our patient...

Join us too.

Me too?

Yeah.

Since we kind of took over your room,

consider this our payback.

What kind of patient

ends up having every meal

with their doctors?

So, you're saying

every meal you eat

is either brought by Mr. Lin,

or you're eating

with him,

Dr. Fang, and others?

Ms. Chen said

she makes the food for Mr. Lin.

He's here for business anyway,

so he just had Ms. Chen make an extra portion for me.

Does that

even sound logical to you?

No. That's exactly why

I asked you over.

Xiguang,

don't you think

Mr. Lin

might actually be into you?

Seriously?

Try using your head.

If that were the case,

his emotional wiring

would be completely out of whack.

How does someone flip a switch

from "giving me a hard time"

to "having feelings for me" just like that?

So,

it must be that he's actually

discussing some complex surgery

with the other doctors.

Plus, he probably feels

somewhat responsible

for my fall.

Besides, it's not like

he's the one delivering the food.

Ms. Chen brings it over,

and he just goes downstairs

and picks it up,

checks on me for a second,

and leaves right after.

If he stays...

it's only to talk shop

or trade hospital gossip

with the doctors.

In this room?

Can you even understand what they're saying?

That's why I asked you

to bring my game console.

Mr. Lin's idea of annual leave

is truly out of this world.

Is he some kind of workaholic?

It's one thing to pull crazy overtime

at the office,

but spending his time off in a hospital?

Dr. Fang said

he's always been so hardcore.

Even back in med school,

he was a total machine.

He was even more of it once he started at the hospital.

He'd spend a dozen-odd hours in surgery

and not even break a sweat.

Your attending physician

has shared quite a lot of gossip

about Mr. Lin with you, hasn't he?

Yeah,

he seems to love chatting with me.

He's actually...

a bit of a chatterbox.

I really can't imagine

Mr. Lin as a doctor.

Xiguang,

has your relationship

with him improved?

This is your chance.

Stop being so difficult.

It's alright, I guess.

Well...

Can't bite the hand that feeds me.

We have some normal conversations now.

I think

the way Mr. Lin treats you

is a far cry from how he used to.

But...

why the sudden talk

about wiping the slate clean?

Because I'm afraid...

I'm afraid of seeing patients cry.

Yin Jie.

Do I look absolutely terrifying

when I cry?

Or is it more like

the "damsel in distress" look?

The kind that makes others change their minds?

I

haven't actually seen you cry yet.

Come here.

What?

Let me give you a pinch and see.

No way.

Doctor, help!

Cry for me.

Mr. Lin.

Have a seat.

I'm stuck on a really tough level.

Just a sec. Take a seat.

This is killing me.

I'm dying here.

I'm so sorry.

[Nie Xiguang] I just reached a new level.

I got a little too into it.

That was pretty rude of me.

[Mr. Lin]

You shouldn't be engaging in

such intense mental activity right now.

Okay,

Dr. Lin.

Did you beat the level?

Not yet.

Come in.

Good morning.

You seem to be in high spirits today.

I am, Mr. Lin.

I feel like

I'm back to 100%.

When can I be discharged?

You'll have to ask your attending physician about that.

I know hospital life can be boring,

so

I brought you some things.

What are these?

Wait, did you go back

to the office just for these?

Actually, I'm not

a workaholic like you.

I don't like working overtime at all.

Playing games is mentally draining.

You should use work to unwind.

Are you sure this counts as "unwinding"?

Of course.

You're using a different part of your brain.

Trust me.

I have a PhD in Neurosurgery.

Just leave

the game to me.

I'll clear that level you were stuck on

yesterday.
