Ruan Qingran took out a box of cigarettes from his windbreaker pocket and handed one to him.
The two leaned on the railing, watching the fish swimming in the water.
Ruan Qingran played with the cigarette between his fingertips without lighting it, exuding an air of indifference and casualness.
"Before, I went on a mission with the First Army and unfortunately encountered only high-level insect species."
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Yu Sheng understood.
The doctors at the First Hospital are affiliated with the military. During peacetime, doctors usually work at the hospital, but during wartime, they are required to accompany the army.
They are doctors, but they are also excellent soldiers.
Mental contamination worsens with each use of mental power, and there is currently no clear way to deal with substance X contamination.
When confronted with highly evolved insect species, he undoubtedly employed his mental faculties for an extended period.
"I used three suppressants to control it."
He said it lightly, but everyone knows that suppressants only address the symptoms, not the root cause.
Frequent mental exertion exacerbates mental fatigue, while excessive use of suppressants burdens the body. Once it becomes uncontrollable, it is extremely difficult to regain control, let alone regain consciousness.
Currently, there is no example of anyone regaining consciousness in a state of loss of control through their own willpower.
"Take care of yourself."
Yu Sheng patted his shoulder, also feeling helpless, as there was nothing anyone could do about it.
"I don't want to see news of your premature death."
The two changed the subject, and as the time was almost up, Ruan Qingran left with his little cousin.
However, he did not return to the Marshal's Mansion. After sending a message to the butler, he went directly to his usual villa with his entourage.
The butler who received the message said, "How can we snatch his little lady!""!!
Sitting in the hovercar, Ruan Qingran opened his personal terminal and discovered numerous messages sent to him.
In the hospital staff group, many people were mentioning him.
He raised his eyebrows and looked at the group messages.
Lazy Dog: Look what I found!!!
Lazy Dog: [Video][Video]
Lazy Dog: @Ruan Qingran, come and claim, isn't the handsome guy in the video you!
Bald but Strong: With his temperament and handsome face, there is no one like Dr. Ruan from the First Hospital.
Who Wants to Die: Ah ah ah!!! I can recognize that handsome face even if it turns to ashes. Dear Mr. Right hasn't run away.
Bald but Strong: There's no need for that. If you can recognize someone by looking at their skull, I believe you. But if it turns to ashes, I want to ask you how do you recognize people. Isn't that just a pile of tricalcium phosphate?
Who Wants to Die: Get lost, straight guy! @Ruan Qingran, the handsome guy, come out and take a look.
Lazy Dog: It's even trending. I just want to ask quietly, is the handsome guy holding his sister? Is she his biological sister?
Who Wants to Die: So cute, want to pinch, how can there be such a cute and obedient little one? After administering injections to numerous children during my ten years of medical practice, I can hardly believe it!
Who Wants to Die: Unless the handsome guy personally brings the little one to me to explain.
Lazy but Salty: I've checked all the news on StarNet; the little one is so cute!
Lazy but Salty: @Ruan Qingran, handsome guy, why didn't you tell us that you have such a beautiful and lovely sister! Can you please bring her to the hospital? I'm begging you. 
Lazy but Salty: The little sister's hair color is so similar to the handsome guy's, and they are both so good-looking; she must be his real sister.
Who Wants to Die: You can tell that Lingling is really excited; the typing speed is as fast as that of a hundred-year-old single man!
Lazy but Salty: Ah... looking at that fluffy hair, big clear eyes like the sea, and those chubby cheeks that can't be hidden, the way she smiles is really soft and cuddly, it makes you want to pinch them!
Text: ### Lazy but Salty: @Ruan Qingran, sob… handsome guy, look at me, bring your sister to the hospital. ### If you don't have time, I can help you take care of her!
Ruan Qingran's face was covered in beads of sweat.
He glanced at the chat records and finally understood the cause and effect of everything.
He hadn't expected that he and his little cousin had just gone to an amusement park, and they ended up trending.
On StarNet, the buzz about them continued, but their ranking had dropped slightly.
Currently, the top spot is occupied by the incident involving the mental power loss of the wolf-shaped star beast.
He glanced at it indifferently and then withdrew his gaze.
He had seen this kind of thing many times and had learned to deal with it calmly.
In fact, when his own mental power was out of control, he believed he could accept it calmly.
He then opened the videos featuring his little cousin and himself.
The comments below were all from people wanting to be the little cousin's parents or confessing their feelings to him.
Ruan Qingran chuckled lightly and said, "I wonder what my uncle would think if he saw this."
He rubbed his chin, thinking with interest.
When they arrived at their destination, Ruan Qingran picked up the sleeping child from the car.
The little one curled up slightly in his arms, and the soft flesh of her cheek pressed against his chest.
Her plump little cheeks were flattened.
When she leaned against her brother, Ruan Shu even rubbed against him, and her small fingers grabbed a bit of his clothing.
"So light."
Ruan Qingran's lips curved into a slight smile.
The young man, over two meters tall, holding his little cousin, looked as though he was cradling a delicate doll.
She was really so small.
Thinking of the little one's animal form, even smaller, like the kind that could be held in one hand.
Ruan Qingran took her to his bedroom, thinking that having a soft and fluffy little pillow in his arms might make it difficult to sleep, as he had never shared a bed with anyone before.
Even when on missions, each person had their own individual sleep pod.
Unexpectedly, as he held the little one and caught a faint scent of milk and another indescribable fragrance on her body, the slight confusion in his mind that had been present during his fight with the wolf seemed to ease.
He fell asleep, and he slept well. When he woke up the next day, he felt completely relaxed.
Looking at the time, it was seven in the morning.
"Weird, I didn't have a headache last night," Ruan Qingran murmured, propping his forehead with one hand.
Although his mental faculties had only been slightly affected during the battle with the wolf, he had braced himself to endure a sleepless night with a headache.
Unexpectedly, he not only fell asleep but also slept deeply, and there were no aftereffects when he woke up the next day.
Hmm... this is unusual. I should go to the hospital and get myself checked.
He looked at his little cousin sleeping peacefully next to him, held her hand, and smiled gently.
But he quickly regained his indifferent demeanor, got up, and changed his clothes.
It was time to prepare breakfast.
