Chapter 921 - The Distance Between a Scholar and A Straight-A Student was the Furthest in the World

Chapter 921: The Distance Between a Scholar and A Straight-A Student was the Furthest in the World

“Old Liu, let me tell you, there are so many chicken soup articles. If you can read less, you have to read less. If you read too much, it will lower your intelligence. I reckon that your low IQ has something to do with reading too many chicken soup articles,” Su Yun said bluntly.

Liu Xuzhi was already familiar with this kind of conversation mode in the hospital of Pengxi Village. At this moment, it gave him a feeling of returning to that place. Vaguely, Liu Xuzhi’s eyes were brimming with tears.

He was about to say something when he heard Su Yun say leisurely, “You’re talking about Cao Yu and Wu Zuxiang going to look for Elder Qian to get the list of pornographic books in the library, right?”

‘Uh...’ Liu Xuzhi was startled. Indeed, Brother Yun really knew everything.

“That’s a rumor,” Mu Tao said. “The joke you mentioned was mentioned in an autobiography. Elder Qian wrote a note — nothing happened. Cao Yu and I are in the same class. If you want to ask, you can ask me directly. As far as I know, Mr. Wu’s English level is not very high. Cao Yu doesn’t necessarily have to consult him first.”

“Old Liu, you have to read some good books. Don’t always believe in such nonsense.” Su Yun did not refute Mu Tao. It seemed that what Mu Tao said was true.

Liu Xuzhi was very helpless. He originally wanted to tell a joke to ease the awkward atmosphere, but he did not expect that his butt would be exposed.

“Many things are like this. If you have time, you can look it up to avoid being cheated.” Su Yun said, “But from what I see, you are the kind of person who is cheated and still counts the money. Oh right, don’t forget to sign the agreement tomorrow.”

As soon as he said that he was cheated, he immediately tried to make him sign an agreement. Liu Xuzhi really had a feeling that he was going to be sold.

This feeling was so strong that Liu Xuzhi even had the idea of going home.

“Don’t listen to their nonsense.” Zheng Ren smiled and said, “Who needs to think hard to verify a sentence? If you have the time, you should do something.”

“Like the owner of this shop?” Su Yun retorted.

Zheng Ren thought about it and it was indeed so. In this world, there were many people who spread rumors, and there were also many people who went to the ends of the Earth.

The scene immediately turned cold. Liu Xuzhi looked at the people around him and felt a little uncomfortable. It was obvious that everyone had something on their minds. Even when no one spoke, no one seemed to notice.

“Are there any other examples?” Liu Xuzhi asked.

“The Furthest Distance in the World. Who wrote it?” Su Yun asked as he played with his phone and glanced at Liu Xuzhi.

This was a very famous short poem. The furthest distance in the world was not the distance between birds and fish. With the advent of the Internet era, many people used this sentence as their signature.

Liu Xuzhi certainly knew, but he still carefully thought about it and finally said with certainty, “Tagore’s ‘Stray Birds.’”

This time, it should be correct, right? Liu Xuzhi was a little absent-minded. He was a doctor in his forties, yet he still had to answer these questions?

“If you’re talking about you, tsk tsk.” Su Yun’s unpleasant words directly came up. Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Mu Tao.

Mu Tao did not want Liu Xuzhi to be too embarrassed, so he smiled and said, “There is no similar sentence in ‘Stray Birds’. This sentence was first published by Zhang Xiaoxian in 1997, ‘single bed in a purse’.”

Liu Xuzhi was stunned.

It was as if the first time he heard of this poem, which was the furthest distance in the world, it meant that it was a poem by the Indian literary tycoon Rabindranath Tagore. How could it not be?

“The Internet Society? That’s it. It’s fine,” Zheng Ren said with a smile. “Don’t take it to heart. Everyone is spreading rumors. No one died anyway. But when it comes to medical matters, you have to pay more attention.”

Su Yun was very dissatisfied with Zheng Ren’s three sentences about medical matters. It was after work, so what was the point of talking so much.

“Boss, do you know where it came from?”

“The poem quoted in the 14th issue of a magazine in 2003 was extracted from the 5th issue of women’s literature in the same year. However, according to an editor of Women’s Digest, this poem was obtained from the Internet,” Zheng Ren said lightly.

Liu Xuzhi initially thought that Zheng Ren did not know either, but he did not expect Boss Zheng to even know the origin of the earliest f*cking issue.

There was really nothing to talk about with a straight-A student.

“Boss, you’ve done a lot of research.” The smile on Su Yun’s face did not look like he was having fun anymore.

“I just took a look at it. When I was young, my classmates read it. I only took a look at it. But I didn’t like a lot of the articles in it.”

“Only the professional books are the best, right?”

“Yes.” Zheng Ren was also a little troubled. “Let’s not talk about this. There are three to five versions of the earliest kidney transplant surgery done in which year.”

“...” Liu Xuzhi was really surprised this time. If it was a poem, then it would be fine if everyone was just spreading rumors. But would such a situation happen in serious medicine?

Zheng Ren said the names of three English-language journals. Even the page numbers were clearly stated. There were all kinds of records about kidney transplants. There was a difference of three to five years.

Liu Xuzhi’s worldview was refreshed.

“Old Liu, I’ll test you on a simple one.” Su Yun saw that Liu Xuzhi was getting more lost, and asked again.

Liu Xuzhi nodded absentmindedly.

“If you are well, then it will be a sunny day. Who said this?” Su Yun asked.

He blurted out that it was Lin Huiyin, but seeing Su Yun’s smile, Liu Xuzhi still held back.

Everyone said yes, but Su Yun asked this, then it was definitely not the case.

“Old Mu, don’t say anything. Boss, let me test you.”

“There are many Lin Huiyin quotations on the Internet that contain this sentence. Lin Huiyin’s words seemed to be the standard for every adolescent boy and girl who are pretentious. When they write ‘Lin Huiyin,’ they always feel like it is full of tenderness and affection,” Zheng Ren said. “Some people even said that it was Xu Zhimo who said it.”

“I asked who you really are, but I didn’t ask you to express your feelings.”

“I haven’t studied it, but this is the first time I saw this sentence. It was written by Bai Luomei. ‘If you are well, it will be a sunny day — the biography of Lin Huiyin. Perhaps, it was Bai Luomei who said it,” Zheng Ren said frankly.

If he did not study it, it meant that he did not study it. He was not sure if it was Bai Luomei who said it first.

“If you’re old, you’ll definitely be one of the harshest old professors. Attending your classes is synonymous with suffering,” Su Yun said.

“Really?” Liu Xuzhi asked foolishly.

“Of course. So, Old Liu, more than half of the rumors circulating on the Internet... Ninety per cent of them are fake. Don’t believe them,” Su Yun warned.

Liu Xuzhi’s worldview was directly shattered.

Crackling sounds echoed in his mind. Could it be that the world he knew was fake? This was too scary.

“If you see me or not, I’ll be there. I’m neither sad nor happy. If you read or don’t read me, love will be there. It won’t come or go...”

Su Yun recited this poem with a lot of emotion. Liu Xuzhi was a little stunned. This Tsangyang Gyatso’s poem, right?

But since Brother Yun said so, it definitely was not.

“From the way you look, I can tell that you’ve been deceived again,” Su Yun laughed and said.
