"Did iqin ask you to bring this? Thanks for the effort." Chen Yu flipped through the materials Kube Rokuro had brought and casually thanked him.
Chen Yu's gaze swept over Kube Rokuro, who was sitting on the sofa, and noticing the hesitant expression on his face, he asked sowhat curiously, "What's the matter, Rokuro? If you have sothing to say, just speak up. Are you still playing this ga with ?"
"No, Brother Yu! I..." Rokuro wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start. After all, the question he wanted to ask was sowhat embarrassing for him. He hemd and hawed before finally whispering to Chen Yu, "I don't know how to say it..."
"You don't know how to say it? What's happened, Rokuro?" Rokuro's words piqued Chen Yu's curiosity. He put down the materials in his hand and looked at him intently, seeming quite eager.
For him, who had been under great ntal pressure due to consecutive surgeries over the past two days, being able to gossip was a rare form of relaxation.
Gazed at like this by Chen Yu, Rokuro felt even more unsure of how to proceed and visibly blushed. However, under Chen Yu's persistent questioning and gaze, he finally opened up, "I've fallen for a woman, but I don't know who she is, nor do I know her na."
"Was it a chance encounter?" Chen Yu looked at Rokuro curiously, as this type of situation wasn't unusual for him.
It wasn't rare for soone to develop an interest due to a chance encounter; after all, there are always strangers who make your heart skip a beat. However, while so people would take the initiative to ask for a na, others would treat it as a beautiful encounter and not disturb the other person.
Yet, Rokuro was the kind of person who wanted to know the na but lacked the courage to ask, hence his current dilemma and distress.
"Yeah, I t her at the hospital. I've encountered her twice," Rokuro recollected the two chance etings he had with her, a sweet smile briefly crossing his face, only to be replaced by a touch of bitterness. "I had actually mustered the courage to ask for her na just now, but she said she would only tell if I encountered her a third ti."
"You t her at the hospital? Is she soone from the hospital?" Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's interest was piqued. No matter what, Rokuro was his junior, and if he could help usher in a beautiful relationship for him, it would be an act of great rit.
Rokuro nodded his head with a bit of embarrassnt, confirming Chen Yu's guess: "She's a female doctor at the hospital."
"A female doctor, huh? Do you rember what she looks like? I can have Hiromi ask around for you. If she's nice, I can introduce you," Chen Yu looked at Rokuro, ready to lend a hand to his junior.
However, Rokuro quickly shook his head and said, "No need, Brother Yu! I'd still like to see if I can et her a third ti. If I do, it ans we truly have fate; if not, then it wasn't ant to be. That's better than eting her through you and then getting rejected."
Hearing Rokuro speak this way, Chen Yu raised his eyebrows noncommittally, nodded slightly, and said, "Since you've decided to do it this way, I won't interfere. Since you're sure she's a female doctor at the hospital, just co by often and you'll et her again."
"Yeah, that's what I'm thinking!" Rokuro perked up, nodding vigorously.

anwhile, in the examination room of the hospital, Jounouchi Hiromi stared intently at the CT images in front of her, seriously examining the condition of Keiko's father.
The examination had been completed yesterday, although the results only ca out today. Plus, with the surgeries she and Chen Yu had been busy with, this matter was postponed. Now that the surgeries were over, Jounouchi Hiromi naturally took out the dical report and studiously reviewed it, wanting to see the changes in Keiko's father under the influence of Chen Yu's Dragon Blood Potion.
"The previously atrophied organs have recovered?" Jounouchi Hiromi read the data on the dical report but wasn't surprised by this point; after all, it was the Dragon Blood that could cause an organism to undergo an abnormal transformation. Even if Chen Yu had minimized its power to the lowest level, enhancing a person's internal organs was still not an issue.
These were also the main objectives of Chen Yu using the Dragon Blood Potion on Keiko's father. Given such results, Jounouchi Hiromi wasn't surprised either. What she really cared about were the other issues that appeared on Keiko's father, apart from those things.
"The heart's blood supply is 1.1 tis that of a normal person? Lung function has improved by 7.5%? These changes were within expectations; it seems the problem isn't that big." Jounouchi Hiromi looked at the before and after comparisons of Keiko's father's cardiac and pulmonary function listed on the dical report and slightly estimated the values. She didn't pay too much attention to this, or rather, if even such slight enhancents weren't present, she would have suggested that Chen Yu re-examine the formula for his Dragon Blood Potion.
Apart from the cardiac and pulmonary functions, other physiological functions of Keiko's father had also been enhanced to varying degrees, but overall, they were still within the range a normal person could accept. There was nothing that particularly stood out, at most equating to the level of an exceptionally strong athlete, and not exceeding the normal range that Jounouchi Hiromi had been concerned about.
Seeing these results, Jounouchi Hiromi let out a sigh of relief internally and discarded her prior worries.
After all, it was the Dragon Blood Potion. If Keiko's father had shown any obvious mutations beyond the scope of a normal human, both she and Chen Yu would have had a hard ti explaining themselves. While this world did have Transcendents, and healing patients with the power of Transcendents wasn't unheard of, such matters ultimately weren't to be discussed openly and unfit for public knowledge.
Now that Keiko's father had no obvious mutations and his body had even been strengthened, it was naturally a cause for joy for everyone involved.
Yet, amidst her relief, Jounouchi Hiromi couldn't help feeling a bit of regret, as the Dragon Blood Potion had obviously also enhanced Keiko's father's muscles and bones. However, because he was in a vegetative state, they couldn't asure how much his motor abilities had improved, which Jounouchi Hiromi found sowhat imperfect.
"Doctor Jounouchi! There's sothing wrong with Mr. Kobayashi in bed 9, please co and take a look!" Just as Jounouchi Hiromi was looking at the dical report in her hands and feeling so regret, a nurse burst into the office and called out to her.
Mr. Kobayashi in bed 9 was Keiko's father.
Upon hearing the news, she imdiately stood up from her chair and ran towards the ward with the nurse.
