Although Glasses Doctor and Doctor Higashiyama had egged on the entire General Surgery departnt to take turns toasting Yu Chen, by the end when everyone was almost down for the count, Yu Chen still showed hardly any signs of drunkenness, which undeniably left Doctor Higashiyama and Glasses Doctor feeling quite unconvinced, vowing to take their revenge next ti.
In the end, all the drunk doctors went their own ways ho. Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi were also preparing to head back when they unexpectedly saw Kube Rokuro who had co to pick up Qingdai.
Upon seeing Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi, Rokuro felt quite embarrassed and hastily greeted them, "Brother Yu! Doctor Jounouchi!"
"Rokuro? Have you co to pick up Doctor Qingdai? I didn't expect you two had progressed to this stage already!" Hiromi Jounouchi couldn't resist teasing him as she saw Rokuro, who had arrived on a motorcycle to pick up Qingdai.
Though both Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi suspected Qingdai had ulterior motives for being with Rokuro, they didn't object to the two of them being together, as long as Qingdai was genuinely interested.
Rokuro was visibly shy and sowhat embarrassed by Hiromi Jounouchi's teasing, but Qingdai, on the contrary, confidently stood next to Rokuro. After putting on the motorcycle helt he handed to her, she turned to Yu Chen and said, "Professor Chen Yu, I have rembered everything you said to today. Please believe , my feelings for Mr. Kube are sincere."
Normally, Qingdai wouldn't have made such a comnt, but she could tell how much Yu Chen cared about Rokuro. Otherwise, he wouldn't have specifically ntioned Qingdai's and Rokuro's relationship when she was apologizing and toasting to Yu Chen just a while ago.
So even though it was out of character for her and didn't fit with her plan to get a hold over Rokuro, Qingdai still expressed her attitude towards Rokuro in front of him to Yu Chen.
Upon hearing Qingdai's confession, Yu Chen raised an eyebrow. With his current perception, he could naturally sense Qingdai's emotions and whether she was lying or not. Seeing she was telling the truth, Yu Chen was sowhat surprised, but still nodded and said to her, "Rokuro is rather introverted. I'll entrust him to Doctor Qingdai for guidance from now on."
"Brother Yu!" Rokuro felt even more embarrassed by Yu Chen's words.
Although he was embarrassed, hearing Qingdai openly admit her feelings for him filled Rokuro with great joy, his heart already brimming with a sweet sense of happiness.
Yu Chen, looking at Rokuro and Qingdai, nodded at them and said, "Hiromi and I won't intrude on your ti together any longer. We'll head back first. You two should head ho early too."
After speaking, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi left the restaurant where they had dined, and deliberately disappeared from Rokuro's view by stepping into the Necromantic Space.
Seeing Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi vanish, Rokuro's eyes went wide. He of course knew they were Transcendents, but didn't they need to hide their identities? Was it alright to just show their supernatural powers on a busy street like this? And Qingdai was with him; didn't it matter if she saw?
While Rokuro was wildly guessing, Qingdai had already sat on his motorcycle, wrapping her arms around his waist, and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Kube, take ho."
"Aren't you surprised?" Rokuro asked, puzzled by Qingdai's lack of surprise.
"Though this kind of spatial ability is rare, I'm a Transcendent too. It's not sothing to be surprised about," Qingdai explained. She certainly understood the significance of Yu Chen showing his supernatural power in front of her and Rokuro deliberately.

"Let introduce this place," Chen Yu said to Kyuuzai Ryousen as they walked into the Regenerative dicine Research Laboratory.
This was also his first visit. Although the lab was his, Chen Yu had only seen it on blueprints and heard so basic information from Kyuuzai Ryousen previously.
"Yes, Professor. Please follow this way," Kyuuzai Ryousen nodded, leading Chen Yu to the elevator and pointing to the sign on the wall, "The entire laboratory is divided into six floors, with one underground and five above ground. The first floor houses the reception hall, examination rooms, and analysis rooms, mainly responsible for patient examinations and pathological analysis. The second floor contains the wards and offices, while all floors above the third are laboratories, with the fifth floor being your private lab, Professor."
Looking at the sign on the wall, Chen Yu nodded slightly and then asked, "What's on the basent floor?"
"The basent is primarily for storage and the cold storage room, used for keeping various experintal samples and supplies," Ryousen explained. As he did so, the elevator arrived; he quickly held the elevator door open, "Professor, please enter."
Once inside the elevator, Chen Yu finally said to Kyuuzai Ryousen, "Let's go to the second floor first. I would like to see how Mr. Kobayashi Yuta, who was transferred here, is doing."
Hearing this, Kyuuzai Ryousen quickly pressed the button on the elevator, taking them up to the second floor.
Exiting the elevator, Kyuuzai Ryousen guided Chen Yu to the ward area of the laboratory, explaining, "Considering we don't receive a large number of patients here, we designed it with only thirty beds. The wards are based on the standards of a hotel-style room, and each is staffed with specialized nurses to care for the patients. However, apart from Mr. Kobayashi Yuta, all the other beds are currently empty."
"How is his condition? Has there been any improvent since the transfer?" Instead of heading straight to Keiko's father's room, Chen Yu inquired about the situation with Kyuuzai Ryousen.
"So far, the recovery is quite promising. Although his mobility hasn't returned yet, he is now capable of uttering so simple words, and his language skills are gradually coming back," Kyuuzai Ryousen reported to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu nodded in acknowledgnt to Ryousen's report before entering Keiko's father's ward with him.
Inside the room, Keiko's mother was peeling an apple for Keiko's father, who was lying in bed. Seeing Chen Yu and Kyuuzai Ryousen enter, she quickly put down the fruit knife and greeted them, "Doctor Chen Yu!"
"No need to stand on ceremony. I'm here to check on your husband's physical condition," Chen Yu indicated to Keiko's mother not to be overly polite and went straight to the bedside to examine Keiko's father.
It had to be said that Keiko's father's physical recovery was swift after receiving the Dragon Blood Potion, but the damage to his soul still prevented him from controlling his body well. If this continued, without soul repair, he might have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, Chen Yu was not one to stand by and let this happen.
