“Mr. Yan, hello!”

Lu Yao, who had walked up to them, extended his hand and introduced himself. “I’m Lu Yao, Su Ye’s boyfriend.”

“Thank you for your help at Binhai University Affiliated Hospital with…”

Before he could finish, he was ruthlessly cut off by Yu Suye.

“Lu Yao, what nonsense are you talking about?”

“Whose boyfriend are you? I’ve never acknowledged you as mine.”

Lu Yao looked helpless. He said softly, “Su Ye, stop fooling around. This is something our families have already settled.”

Yu Suye retorted angrily, “Then go find whoever agreed to it. I’ve never agreed to be your girlfriend.”

Yu Suye’s tone softened slightly. “Look, Lu Yao, with your background, what kind of woman couldn’t you find?”

“You could even go after a famous celebrity and have no problem.”

“Lu Yao, I like being a doctor. I like operating on patients and stitching them up on the operating table. I’m not cut out to be a rich man’s wife.”

“Just do one good deed and let me go, okay?”

Lu Yao gazed at Yu Suye with deep affection. “Su Ye, believe it or not, ever since I met you, all other women just seem like common, painted faces to me.”

“Su Ye, I really do like you.”

“Su Ye, don’t worry. After you marry me, you can still be a surgeon. I won’t force you to give up your passions and hobbies.”

Yu Suye’s expression darkened. She asked coldly, “Lu Yao, you’re definitely not going to give up, are you?”

Lu Yao nodded heavily and raised his hand as if taking an oath. “Su Ye, my feelings for you are as true as the sun and moon. There’s nothing false about them.”

“Su Ye, my heart is truly yours…”

Lu Yao noticed Yu Suye’s face turn grim as she began to roll up her sleeves. Her eyes grew chillingly cold.

He became wary and asked worriedly, “Su Ye, what are you doing?”

Yu Suye said icily, “What am I doing? You’ll find out soon enough.”

“Since you’re so infatuated, I won’t hide it anymore. I’ll show you the other side of me that I’ve been keeping hidden.”

“Lu Yao, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you going to back off or not?”

Lu Yao glanced at Yu Suye’s clenched fists, took half a step back, but still insisted, “My heart, as true as the sun and… UGH…”

The rest of his sentence suddenly turned into a pained groan, and he was in too much pain to continue speaking.

Lu Yao had only been watching Yu Suye’s fists; he hadn’t noticed her legs.

In an instant, Yu Suye’s right leg shot out like a spring, kicking Lu Yao in the abdomen with lightning speed.

It was a very skillful kick.

The force was delivered and retracted in a flash, and the full, unbuffered impact was absorbed by Lu Yao’s stomach.

Lu Yao stood frozen in place, his eyes wide as saucers. He could only exhale, unable to draw a breath.

His stomach felt as if it had been put through a blender.

An indescribable, excruciating pain washed over his entire body like a tidal wave. Following this pain came unbearable nausea and dizziness.

Lu Yao’s vision suddenly went black. His legs gave out, and clutching his stomach, he dropped to his knees with a THUD.

Unable to hold himself up, his upper body collapsed, and his head hit the ground. He let out a muffled, pained whimper…

“Is he going to be okay?”

Hearing this voice, all the ferocity vanished from Yu Suye in an instant. She turned around, transforming back into a gentle young woman.

“He’s fine. I’m wearing sneakers, so the force was dispersed. It just transferred to his liver, making him lose control of his body for a moment.”

“He’ll be fine after a few minutes.”

Noticing Yan Feifan’s face had turned a bit pale, Yu Suye tried to justify her actions. “If he hadn’t been so relentlessly persistent, I wouldn’t have ambushed him like that.”

Yan Feifan quickly agreed, “I know. You had no choice.”

Yu Suye explained again, “Feifan, I’m usually very gentle. I just lost my temper today. It was an impulse.”

Yan Feifan agreed again, “I understand. My sister is usually very gentle too, unless someone really provokes her.”

Yu Suye smiled and said, “Ruoruo really is quite gentle.”

“Feifan, we’ve seen most of the hospital. Should we go find Mrs. Lian and tour the tech company?”

“Okay!”

Yan Feifan agreed, then glanced at Lu Yao, who was now lying on the ground in a fetal position.

“Let him lie there a bit longer. The weather’s nice today. He can soak up some sun, get some calcium!”

Yan Feifan walked around the pitiful Lu Yao, who was busy “getting his calcium,” and followed Yu Suye toward the main office building.

“Feifan, we’ve practiced things like Tai Chi and Five Animals Qigong since we were kids, mainly to stay healthy.”

“Feifan, I only won just now because it was a sneak attack. In a real fight, I’m definitely no match for him…”

“Look, my arms and legs are so thin…”

As Yan Feifan listened to Yu Suye’s rambling explanation, he secretly made a decision.

‘If I ever run into a member of the Yu Family again, I’ll be sure to give them a wide berth…’

Baining Medical Technology Company’s main products included surgical microscopes, ultrasound machines, CT scanners, and hyperbaric oxygen chambers.

Its research and development center was located in the High-Tech District of Jingcheng.

At nearly four in the afternoon, Yan Feifan, accompanied by Yu Youlian, toured the R&D headquarters and its four hundred-plus staff members with Yu Suye.

After a quick tour, Yan Feifan was finally led into a laboratory where he saw a surgical robot that looked like a tentacled monster.

It was actually a robot integrated with an operating table, but to Yan Feifan, it looked more like a high-precision CNC machine tool.

In essence, however, a surgical robot was just an intelligent machine tool; it’s just that the “product” being worked on was a person.

“Mr. Yan, this robot’s surgical arms have five-axis linkage and can be positioned anywhere in a three-dimensional space…”

Yu Youlian explained with a hint of pride, “The three-dimensional positioning deviation is controlled to within one-tenth of a millimeter.”

“It uses a seven-point positioning method: four points for positioning, and the other three for correction and calibration.”

At this, Yu Youlian gave a light wave of her hand.

A staff member, who was already prepared, brought a life-sized mannequin to the operating table.

From the control room, Yan Feifan had the honor of pressing the start button.

Afterward, he watched the robot come to life. Several slender surgical arms pierced the mannequin’s abdomen and began performing a laparoscopic procedure.

On the monitor, Yan Feifan clearly saw four surgical arms working in concert to dissect a section of pig intestine inside the mannequin’s abdomen, remove a piece of fat from within it, and then begin suturing it closed…

Yu Youlian continued her introduction, “Mr. Yan, this surgical robot can also be switched to a remote control mode.”

“Mr. Yan, with our robot, for procedures like the puncture injection you performed today, you will no longer have to fly all the way to Jingcheng.”

“You’ll only need to sit at home, use the control handles, put on a VR headset, and you can operate the robot remotely.”

Yan Feifan said hopefully, “I also hope that domestic surgical robots can reach that stage soon.”

Yu Youlian stated confidently, “It won’t be a long wait.”

A few minutes later, Yan Feifan was back in the surgical robot lab. He opened the mannequin’s abdomen to inspect the results of the demonstration.

Based on the incision and suturing from this demonstration, Yan Feifan judged it to be at a good level of quality.

This made him sigh to himself.

‘With the advancement of science and technology, not only is simple labor slowly being replaced by machines, but even general surgeons, who require a high level of technical skill, will probably be out of a job.’

‘The pace at which machines devour jobs is advancing by leaps and bounds…’

After watching the robot’s surgical demonstration, Yu Youlian invited Yan Feifan into her office to discuss the specific terms of their collaboration…
