System Came When the Doctor was Thirty

The wedding, a milestone in life; even though Professor Gu is an academician, he wouldn’t dare delay the auspicious time for Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu.

What Professor Gu and Professor Lu Mang wanted to discuss with Lu Cheng was not a trivial matter and couldn’t be settled in just a few words.

Today, they would only get started, saving detailed discussions for later.

After having his cousins personally attend to Professor Lu Mang and the others, Lu Cheng hurriedly went to do makeup with Mu Nanshu.

The wedding venue of Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu was set up in the banquet hall of the Vienna Hotel, which was already the best hotel in Long County.

At the scene of the banquet hall, outside the makeup room.

After meeting the relatively important guests with their parents, Lu Cheng and Mu Leng, Mu Nanshu’s parents, Lu Cheng finally pushed open the door and slipped in.

Mu Nanshu had hired a makeup artist, and the package also included grooming for the groom.

The bridal makeup was handled by the bride’s side, and Mu Leng’s family was well-off, so they hired a makeup team from Sha City, a group of four people.

Lu Cheng’s makeup was relatively simple, so anyone could just casually do it for him.

At this moment, Mu Nanshu was still pondering over the conversation with Professor Gu and others, ”I just asked my dad, and my dad said that doing R&D in medical devices would be quite difficult.”

Upon hearing Mu Nanshu say this, Lu Cheng remembered that Mu Leng was being invited by his nephew Hong Zhifei to dabble in some sort of medical device company.

”I’m not clear on the specifics, after all, it’s just in its early stages.”

”Let’s not rush,” Lu Cheng reassured.

”Today, our main task is to complete the wedding, and then… heh heh, you know what’s next.”

Actually, there’s no embarrassment in it; after the wedding, the newlyweds typically count cash gifts.

Mu Nanshu was also quite happy upon hearing this and asked, ”The phone call from Professor Gu just now had some deeper meaning, didn’t it?”

”With a top hand surgeon seeking a ’title’ for you, Union Hospital wouldn’t dare not be generous, right?”

”If this succeeds, we’ll earn more than what we’re getting for marrying today.”

The makeup artist from Sha City became curious upon hearing Mu Nanshu say this, ”Boss, what do you guys do for a living?”

”Do you earn that much?”

Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu exchanged glances and replied, ”We’re just working...”

Just as Lu Cheng finished speaking, a notification beeped on his phone.

It was a text message, not a WeChat message.

The message was from Professor Zhong Junyun: ”Lu Cheng, don’t rush!”

”Finish your wedding first.”

”Wishing you a happy marriage.”

The messages merged into one, yet could be interpreted as different pieces of information.

Lu Cheng picked up his phone and sent a thank-you reply to Professor Zhong, then put his phone down, his eyes wandering over the panels.

Ultimately, Lu Cheng’s current achievements were partly due to his efforts and partly due to Mu Nanshu’s support.

Essentially, it was its merit.

Of course, at the root, it brought Lu Cheng the ability to achieve what others could not, saving patients in Xiangzhou, the state, and the nation whom no one else could save.

After all, in the medical industry, the essence is if you can treat patients that others dare not treat, you are exceptional.

In reality, patients you can treat are also treatable by others.

...

The wedding began, and the host started guiding Lu Cheng through the process.

Mu Leng led Mu Nanshu through the archway…

Lu Cheng went forward to take Mu Nanshu’s hand.

Mu Leng smilingly placed Mu Nanshu’s hand in Lu Cheng’s palm, ”Wishing you both a life of shared joy and sorrow, and mutual happiness!”

Mu Leng’s words were few, and his congratulatory remarks were not clichés, just eight simple words.

”Thanks, Dad!” Lu Cheng nodded in agreement.

”Thanks, Dad,” echoed Mu Nanshu.

Lu Cheng, holding onto Mu Nanshu, returned to the main area, and as they turned, Lu Cheng saw several somewhat familiar faces that weren’t quite familiar ”acquaintances” nearby!

For instance, Professor Chen Song and Professor Xiang Dongshan, Chen Song’s superior.

For instance, Professor Huang Gengwen, Dai Linfang’s teacher, whom Lu Cheng had met a few times.

For instance, Professor Zhao Gangkang from the Trauma Center of Union Hospital.

For instance, teaching instructors from Huaxi where Lu Cheng once studied…

If Lu Cheng were still the Lu Cheng from a year ago, even if he paid, he couldn’t have invited these people to attend his wedding as they wouldn’t have had the time.

Yet, Lu Cheng wasn’t forthcoming with invitations, and they still made time to come.

In Union Hospital’s hand surgery department, neither Professor Zhong nor Professor Xie came, but Associate Professor Zhao Linfa and Professor Liang Guocheng from Professor Zhong Junyun’s team still made time to attend.

The newlyweds were destined to be in the spotlight.

After Lu Cheng and Mu Nanshu gracefully continued with the procedure, they arrived at the vows segment.

Lu Cheng didn’t make special preparations for this segment, but when it was Mu Nanshu’s turn to speak, it brought a hint of redness to Lu Cheng’s eyes.

According to the current wedding tradition, it was the groom’s turn to make vows.

Mu Nanshu took the microphone, her voice becoming gentle and graceful, ”Lu Cheng, we have known each other for a long time, one could even say since we were little.”

This was one of the few times Mu Nanshu directly called Lu Cheng by his name.

In their past interactions, Mu Nanshu never called him, nor addressed him, she would just start speaking.

Mu Nanshu didn’t call Lu Cheng by any title; rather, Lu Cheng would refer to Mu Nanshu as Xiao Shu or Book Bag.

”Along the way, and somewhat naively, some say, we were childhood sweethearts, innocent playmates.”

”I would also think so, yet not quite so; I don’t know exactly why.”

”Because I found you a bit annoying, so much so, that I can’t even pinpoint when I started liking you.”
