After saying goodbye to doctor Li, Song Shuhang asked Zhao Yaya,
Sister, I am gonna visit Professor Renshui, would you like to go with me?


Why should I do that when I’m not his student? I’ll go back to Jiangnan College. I have a lot of things to do over there.
The scale of Jiangnan College sports event was quite large, and there were many students injured in the competitions. She was busy as a medical intern.
Thinking of the sports event, Zhao Yaya remembered something.
She rolled Song Shuhang’s medical report into a tube, and knocked him on his head with it.
I have a question for you. What has happened to that big dark-skinned player of the 5km race? I heard that the guy and you both attended the 5km race, and at first you two were far ahead of the other players. But, in the end, the guy suddenly fainted and fell onto the ground? Even after he was sent to us for treatment, he kept shouting: ‘The second place, is yours! The second place, is mine!’ as if he was possessed. What’s wrong with him?

The dark-skinned student?


He still remembered ‘second place’ after he was sent to the health room? Oh, it seemed that he really wanted to win!
Song Shuhang exclaimed,
The big dark-skinned guy was quite strong-willed, though he talked too much. He clearly had a great desire to win the competition. We were almost three laps ahead of the other players… In the midway, I did him a little favor because I found he was desperate to win. In fact, he could certainly win the competition with his strength. However, I’m a little bit stronger than him. Anyway, he was a worthy opponent.


…
After a pause, Zhao Yaya said,
Although you explanation sounded quite sincere, somehow I can still feel deep irony in your words. I think I’ve understood why the guy fainted.


I was not mocking him.
Song Shuhang shrugged.

Alright, whatever,
Zhao Yaya said, smiling.
I gotta go. Call me if you need a hand. Be careful of your words when visiting Professor Renshui.

Yes, I got it, you know I always talk in a measured way.
Song Shuhang retorted.
❄️❄️❄️
After saying goodbye to Zhao Yaya, Song Shuhang went to the hospital after he bought a bag of apples and a watermelon outside the hospital.
The prices of the fruits were surprisingly high, double those in fruit market—especially that bag of apples. It seemed that the store owner wished he could sell them by gram!
After that, Song Shuhang found Building 8B, climbed to the fifth floor, found No. 532 ward where Professor Renshui was in, and knocked on the door.

Come in please, the door is unlocked.
It was Professor Renshui’s voice. He could not get up to open the door because both of his legs were broken, so the door was always left ajar.
Song Shuhang pushed the door open and immediately saw Professor Renshui.
At this time, the professor lay in the hospital bed, both legs tied with bandages and hung high. This posture looked really embarrassing.

Eh, hello, you are…?
as Song Shuhang looked familiar to him, Professor Renshui thought he was probably a student of his. However, he couldn’t remember all his students’ names as he taught several classes.

Professor, hello, I am Song Shuhang from Department 19, Class 43, Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Academy.
He introduced himself, smiling shyly,
I came to the hospital for a physical examination today, and I happened to know that you are also here, so I dropped by to see you.

The name of his department was so long that he felt out of breath when he tried to tell the whole name at once.

Haha, sorry to bother you.
Professor Renshui’s face lit up. A student came to see him—didn’t it mean that he was quite popular among the students?
He secretly remembered the name of Song Shuhang, and decided to give him a little surprise on the credits this semester.
Shuhang sat down and chatted happily with the professor.
They talked about the funny things recently happening in the school, the ongoing sports event and complained about the perpetually unchanged speech of the Principal in the opening ceremony of sports event.
Professor Renshui was an eloquent teacher. Led by him, the conversation between the two was quite lively.
What a harmonious scene.
❄️❄️❄️
At this time, in the corridor on the fifth floor, the salaryman-like uncle was knocking at the doors of the wards one after another.

No.530… not this one. Hell, which ward is the junior from the Su Clan hiding in?
the salaryman uncle gnashed his teeth and pushed the door of No.531 Ward open.
A skinny old man inside looked up at him.
Who are you looking for, young man?


Sorry, I’ve got a wrong number.
The salaryman uncle chuckled dryly and closed the door.
He vaguely sensed the scent of the junior from the Su Clan in this building. However, when he tracked the scent to the fifth floor, she suddenly concealed her scent.
He could only be sure that she was on the fifth floor, but he didn’t know which room she was in.
To find the target, he had to use the dumbest way—examine the wards one by one.
However, after he had examined thirty wards, he still couldn’t find the junior from the Su Clan.
Did he lose her trace again?
I have to be quick in case she leaves the hospital, which will be a waste of my time,
the salaryman uncle thought.
He reaffirmed his resolve and regained motivation, then proceeded to No. 532 Ward, knocking on the door.
Then, he noticed that the door of the ward was unlocked. To save time, he directly pushed the door and got into the ward.

Eh? Who are you?
Professor Renshui heard the sound and turned to look at the strange man, wondering who he was.
Song Shuhang also turned around with a startled look on his face.

Sorry, I’ve got the wrong number… Ah, the swindler?
as he spoke, he suddenly saw Song Shuhang and called out.
Song Shuhang felt the blue veins on his forehead were throbbing!

Hey, ‘three strikes and you’re out’, this has been the third time you slander me! Even if I have a good temper, I will be angry!
Song Shuhang rubbed the temples and gnashed his teeth.

Sorry… I’m sorry. I’ve got a wrong room, I’m leaving!
the man turned around resolutely with a disgusted face as if he didn’t want to have anything to do with Song Shuhang—‘the shameless swindler’.
Song Shuhang hurriedly called him, trying to stop him.
Hey, don’t go!

However, the man ran away as fast as he could as if a ghost was chasing him, giving no chance for him to explain.
Raising his head, Song Shuhang really felt like cursing. It was such a coincidence that he had encountered the man three times a day. However, this coincidence ended up with a tragedy!

?
Professor Renshui looked at Song Shuhang, wondering what had happened between them.

I surrender.
Song Shuhang rubbed his temple, and briefly told Professor Renshui what had happened between them.
Professor Renshui burst into laughter. That guy was a real piece of work! Professor Renshui no longer felt alone, for obviously he was not the unluckiest person in the world. He’d got a subtle psychological balance.

Professor, anyway, I’ll go give the money back to the guy today. Here is some fruit for you, I’m gonna look for that guy now. See you!
Song Shuhang stood up to say goodbye.

Yeah, tell him what really happened. I think he should be able to understand you if he is not a fool. Remember to close the door for me.
Professor Renshui waved his hand with a grin.
However, the problem was… that man was indeed a fool!
Song Shuhang said goodbye, left the ward and started to search for the man.
