As long as the notice is in place, it's not malpractice.

Niu Ben rushed out of the ward.

Lu Yuan tidied up his white coat and calmed down the guilt in his heart within three seconds.

He pushed open the door and entered.

As soon as Lu Yuan entered, he saw that Niu Ben was waving two surgical knives around his own body haphazardly.

Judging from his actions, he clearly wanted to stab himself but was also somewhat afraid to cause any incidents.

Lu Yuan: "......"

At that moment, a sentence suddenly appeared in Lu Yuan's mind: It's my fault for nurturing you into what you've become...

He walked over and snatched the surgical knives from Niu Ben's hands, and said with a straight face: "Did you really think you couldn't die anymore?"

Ignoring the seemingly innocent look on Niu Ben's face, Lu Yuan moved his finger slightly!

In an instant, Niu Ben only felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if all the blood in his body had stopped flowing!

Sweat beads appeared all over his forehead, as if he had just climbed out of a pool, and his sturdy physique was instantly drenched in sweat through his patient gown!

Heart electrical induction + psychic force control!

If Lu Yuan wished, he could make Niu Ben's heart explode at any moment!

The pained expression persisted on Niu Ben's face for five seconds before he recovered.

Lu Yuan said coldly: "Do you understand your own weaknesses now?"

"No matter how strong your body is, the organs inside won't become any sturdier."

"You are not invincible!"

Niu Ben nodded: "I understand, I understand! Thank you Dr. Lu for showing mercy!"

Only then did Lu Yuan's expression soften. Niu Ben looked at him gratefully.

He could tell that Lu Yuan's reprimand was for his own good.

Sitting on the edge of Niu Ben's hospital bed, Lu Yuan picked up a tablet and flipped through his medical records, eventually handing it to him and saying: "Niu Ben, watch this video first."

The video was recorded by Lu Yuan with a handheld camera, right before the surgery yesterday.

"Niu Ben, let me make this clear first. This is a free surgery. I'll do my best, but you'll have to bear all the risks yourself."

"Dr. Lu, just go ahead and cut me up! Even if I die and become a vengeful ghost, I definitely won't come looking for you!"

Niu Ben nodded heavily: "Mm! No matter what, Dr. Lu, just say it straight! I can already feel the changes in my body!"

"Whether it's good or bad, I can take it!"

"Cough, cough..."

Lu Yuan cleared his throat and said: "This surgery has brought you some minor issues in the following aspects."

"First, your skin and flesh have become immune to pain stimuli. From now on, your body will permanently lose the ability to sense pain in your muscles and skin."

"Not only will you be unable to feel pain, but attacks on your body will instead trigger dopamine secretion, creating a sensation akin to pleasure and excitement."

"In other words, the only way left to kill you now is to bypass your skin and muscles and directly attack your internal organs."

Niu Ben asked in puzzlement: "Dr. Lu, isn't this a good thing?"

Lu Yuan sighed and said: "In some ways, this is indeed a good thing, but pain perception is also a major human sense. Losing it is still a loss after all, which is quite regrettable."

Niu Ben waved his big hand dismissively: "I don't feel regretful at all, Dr. Lu. Don't be overly sentimental. Just go on to the next point."

This time, Lu Yuan pushed up the bridge of his glasses.

"Third, you'll be able to engage normally in a certain activity, but you won't be able to continue your lineage through it, unless..."

"You find a female monkey."

Without waiting for Niu Ben to react, Lu Yuan immediately added: "You don't need to worry about this either. Test tube babies are already possible nowadays. If you really don't want to, I can perform restorative surgery for you!"

Niu Ben didn't speak up immediately. His rugged features clouded with sadness as he glanced down at his belly.

"Dr. Lu, I probably won't be looking for another woman for the rest of my life."

"This also isn't very important to me."

"Besides, I never intended to have kids in the first place. The world is too dangerous, why bring them into this misery?"

Lu Yuan nudged the lower rim of his glasses frame and said, "Are you sure? I remember you saying before that it felt quite comfortable, no?"

Niu Ben blushed a little and murmured: "It is comfortable, but not wanting another woman doesn't mean I can't still feel good..."

"And isn't this perfect? No matter what, I won't get into any trouble..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan blinked. It seemed his worldview was rather narrow?

"Alright, if you ever want kids in the future, come find me. I can help resolve this issue for you."

"Thank you, Dr. Lu!"

"No need to thank me. Those are basically the three major negative impacts. Get some good rest first. In a couple days, I'll bring you to test your new abilities."

"Sounds good!"

Just as Lu Yuan was about to leave, he noticed Niu Ben seemed to have more to say.

"Dr. Lu..."

"Hmm?"

Facing Lu Yuan's gaze, Niu Ben said: "Dr. Lu, I feel like you're too harsh on yourself."

Lu Yuan frowned: "What do you mean?"

Niu Ben organized his words and said slowly: "There's nothing in this world that can be entirely perfect. Yet you insist on demanding perfection from yourself, which is unrealistic. You're asking yourself to accomplish what even gods can't achieve."

Lu Yuan was confused: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I'm talking about your free surgeries."

Niu Ben looked at Lu Yuan with utmost sincerity: "Dr. Lu, I can tell from your eyes that you feel guilty towards me."

"But I want to tell you, for many people, your free surgeries are life-changing! Including for me!"

"You're giving powerless people abilities and making the weak strong, without asking for anything in return!"

"Although there may be some unknown bodily side effects, those who undergo your surgery still benefit far more than what they put in!"

"Dr. Lu, you don't need to feel guilty towards people who get free surgery from you. Even if some unexpected changes happen to their bodies, they are still the ultimate beneficiaries."

Lu Yuan hesitated. "So what you mean is..."

"What I mean is, Dr. Lu, you're too kind. You care too much about your patients, to the point where you're burdening yourself mentally."

"If you keep this up, Dr. Lu, you're bound to be taken advantage of in the future!"

Lu Yuan frowned in contemplation for a while, then nodded: "It seems you do have a point."

"I really am too kind, to the extent that I always feel like I've let others down, especially my patients..."

"Mm... I should be more mindful in the future and not be so selfless."

"Thank you, Niu Ben. Good night!"

"Good night, Dr. Lu!"

After leaving Niu Ben's ward, Lu Yuan put on a Bluetooth headset and said to Liu Yuan: "Liu Yuan, from now on, add a free service option to all service items at our clinic."

"Please note that all free services will use untested products and technologies, which may produce some unknown reactions."

"If you're willing to do it, then do it. If you're unwilling, then choose the paid service items."

"Put everything on the table for everyone to see clearly. Let's have fair transactions without taking advantage of each other... Yet still feeling sorry towards one another."

Liu Yuan's voice came from the headphones: "Boss is wise! This way, no matter what accidents happen, it cannot be considered a medical incident!"

"After all, we have notified accordingly!"

Lu Yuan: "What did you say?"

Headphones: "I said this is very good to do. It will avoid many beautiful misunderstandings in the future."

"Hmm, go busy yourself. Oh right!"

"In operating rooms 4, 5 and 6, put up a character in the most visible spot."

"What character?"

"Numb!"

"Why put that up?"

"Don't ask."

"Alright..."
