Chapter 4 – His brain is perfectly healthy

Translator: ChuRen/ YuQiChen

After another half an hour, the three in the living room finally saw their leader.

Yu Chenzhou emerged from Yan Shu’s room, his expression serious as he seemed lost in thought, not even paying much attention to Guan Shuo’s return.

“Leader Yu! Is Xiao Yan still crying? How did your comforting session go?” You Qi jumped in preemptively.

Just after fooling Guan Shuo, he didn’t want this matter to be exposed so soon. He hoped the leader would understand his intentions.

Guan Shuo also perked up upon hearing this, staring at Yu Chenzhou, feeling a sense of nervousness rising within him.

But Yu Chenzhou didn’t answer You Qi’s question. His mind was filled with Yan Shu’s words, which were truly shocking.

“Chenzhou, are you okay?” Song Shi’an sensed the tense atmosphere and pulled You Qi back, signaling him to stop joking around for now.

Yu Chenzhou glanced at Yan Shu’s closed door and whispered, “Let’s talk in my room, Xiao-Shuo, you come too.”

Guan Shuo, who was suddenly called out, rolled his eyes. Did the leader think he would walk away on his own?

What was this all about? Was it necessary to be so secretive?

Did that guy really cry!?

Guan Shuo was internally frustrated, but in front of Leader Yu, he remained obedient.

After gathering everyone in his room, Yu Chenzhou began to explain what Yan Shu had said earlier.

The expressions of the three men changed rapidly from curiosity to shock.

“Xiao Yan said he woke up and forgot all his singing and dancing skills? Did he suffer a head injury?” You Qi couldn’t comprehend the feeling.

It was like amnesia but not the traditional concept of it.

“His head is fine, he just suddenly became like this,” Yu Chenzhou said, rubbing his chin, furrowing his brow in distress.

“You guys just believe his words like that? Aren’t you a bit skeptical about the truth of it? Forgot how to sing and dance? That’s nonsense! He can forget about it!” Guan Shuo was the first to express disbelief.

Yu Chenzhou knew Guan Shuo hadn’t let go of his bias against Yan Shu yet, so he took out his phone and searched for a news article, handing it to him to read.

“Here, take a look.”

Guan Shuo lowered his head and read the large headline on the news:

【University Professor Forgets Lifelong Professional Knowledge Overnight】

Guan Shuo: “…”

You Qi: “Ah! How is this any different from formatting a phone? It’s so terrifying!”

Song Shi’an: “So, this kind of thing is possible, and Xiao Yan doesn’t need to lie with such an outrageous story.”

You Qi: “Exactly! If this happened to me, I would have panicked long ago. Xiao Yan must have endured a lot of fear and anxiety these days. Without understanding, and being criticized by teammates…”

You Qi paused, glancing meaningfully at Guan Shuo.

Guan Shuo remained silent for a few seconds, then, in frustration, vigorously rubbed his hair a few times, “Got it, got it! My mouth was foul, I was wrong, okay!”

Yu Chenzhou was amused by Guan Shuo’s reaction and covered his mouth with his fist, “Don’t argue with each other. Actually, Xiao Yan already apologized to me. He doesn’t blame Xiao Shuo for what he said. He also feels that he has been a burden to everyone. He… just isn’t good at expressing his true emotions.”

“We are a team, we need to be more tolerant of each other.”

Song Shi’an and You Qi nodded in agreement, while Guan Shuo awkwardly turned his head away.

After such a big incident occurred, without discussing it with everyone in time, this guy Yan Shu really…

Guan Shuo still felt annoyed, but he also acknowledged that his words before were too harsh.

“I will find a chance to apologize to him. I’m tired, I’m going back to sleep.”

Guan Shuo quickly fled the scene, as if there were dogs nipping at his heels.

The three in the room couldn’t help but exchange a smile.

Deep down, they all understood that he was a person with a cold exterior but a warm heart…

…

That night, everyone was burdened with thoughts, except for Yan Shu, who slept particularly soundly.

After explaining to Yu Chenzhou the reason he couldn’t sing or dance, Yan Shu felt relieved. Although it was fabricated, for the sake of team harmony, he had to give a reason.

Yan Shu didn’t want anyone to think he was intentionally causing trouble.

After finishing his morning routine, Yan Shu changed into his team uniform, preparing in advance the friendly words he would use when meeting everyone today.

Sincerity, it had to be sincere.

Wasn’t it said online that sincerity was the ultimate skill?

Embarrassing situations like yesterday’s were best avoided.

So, with an incredibly “sincere” face, Yan Shu opened the door.

Four pairs of eyes were all staring at him at the door, seemingly waiting for him to open it.

The sincerity on Yan Shu’s face turned into a half-step retreat.

Yan Shu: “…”

What, what was going on?

“Xiao Yan, let’s not waste any more time after waking up, let’s go! Shi’an-ge and I will stall Lao Wang¹Old Wang, he’s referring to their manager!” You Qi gently pushed Yan Shu.

“Huh?”

“Xiao Yan, my uncle’s private hospital has excellent privacy. I’ve arranged for you to take time off, no matter what… Let’s go for a check-up today.” Yu Chenzhou’s eyes showed a loving gaze.

“Ah?”

“Yan Shu, at times like this, we can’t avoid seeking medical help. This concerns the team—Uh uh uh! You Qi, what are you doing!”

You Qi frantically covered Guan Shuo’s sharp-tongued mouth, “If you can’t say anything nice, then don’t speak! Alright, alright, Xiao Yan, go quickly. Leader Yu will accompany you, don’t be afraid!”

Ten minutes later.

Yan Shu sat in the car, still looking dazed.

The made-up story from last night had actually backfired on him.

It wasn’t a complete lie, as Yan Shu retained memories from his original self. However, when his soul arrived in this body, he couldn’t translate the singing and dancing abilities from his original memories into physical actions.

In simple terms, his mind and body weren’t on the same page. To fully adapt, Yan Shu felt it would take a long time.

From a young age, Yan Shu had always resisted going to medical halls. He had been sick a lot as a child and was often forced by his father to take bitter medicine, making him a frequent visitor to medical halls.

The medical hall in this world was called a hospital, much more advanced than before, but Yan Shu’s instinctive reaction to unfamiliar places made him feel uneasy.

“Why are you trembling? Are you afraid of going to the hospital?” Guan Shuo sat beside Yan Shu, sensing the situation of the person next to him.

Originally, it was only Yu Chenzhou accompanying Yan Shu to the hospital, but Guan Shuo insisted on coming along, probably to create an opportunity for an apology.

This silly kid, every time he spoke, it sounded like a provocation, prickly all over.

Quickly trying to comfort him, Yu Chenzhou said, “Don’t be afraid, this check-up doesn’t require any needles or blood draws, it’ll be fine.”

Yan Shu obediently nodded, not explaining that he had just shivered a bit, quietly saying, “Thank you.”

Both of them were taken aback.

Yu Chenzhou replied with a gentle smile, “Don’t mention it. Now, there’s no difference between us and family. You all are like my younger brothers.”

Family…

Yan Shu couldn’t help but think of the people and events related to Dayun. Since his dad²Well honestly I dunno what to use, its his Ge’er father. So from here the Ge’er father is dad‘s passing, his father had hardly visited the yard where Yan Shu and his dad lived. He probably didn’t want to deal with him, fearing that if he disappeared from home, his father wouldn’t even care.

His dad, like him, was a ge’er, but his life was cut short. He passed away when Yan Shu was ten…

After all this time, Yan Shu still felt sentimental whenever he thought about it.

At this moment, even Guan Shuo, who was usually a bit slow in emotional matters, could sense the low mood of the person beside him.

He muttered to himself: Is he really that afraid of going to the hospital?

Wanting to say something to lighten the mood, but fearing it might backfire, You Qi advised him to speak less on the way there. Although he impatiently refused on the surface, deep down, he agreed.

Guan Shuo knew he was prone to emotional outbursts and wanted to avoid further misunderstandings, so he ultimately chose to remain silent.

With the leader by his side, it was more appropriate for the leader to offer comfort.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Yan Shu was guided through the process very clearly.

This was his first time in a modern hospital, where he saw medical equipment and examination methods he had never encountered before.

As he lay on the instrument, Yan Shu suddenly worried whether modern medicine could uncover the fact that his body had undergone a soul switch.

He should have refused to come to the hospital from the start!

But under the concerned eyes of Leader Yu, Yan Shu couldn’t bring himself to say a single “no.”

“You can come down now.”

The doctor’s words brought Yan Shu out of his wandering thoughts.

After politely thanking the doctor, Yan Shu walked out of the examination room first.

He dared not look into the doctor’s eyes, fearing that his body swap secret would be discovered by modern doctors.

“Leader Yu.” Once outside, Yan Shu whispered.

Yu Chenzhou and Guan Shuo were waiting outside and approached when they saw him.

Yu Chenzhou immediately gave Yan Shu a hug, patting his obediently head in passing.

He completely forgot that Yan Shu didn’t like being touched, just wanting to give his younger brother a sense of security at that moment.

Hospitals were inherently anxiety-inducing places, and how could Yu Chenzhou not notice Yan Shu’s restless state all the way there.

However, he misunderstood. Yan Shu wasn’t afraid of the medical examination; he was afraid of his lies being exposed.

A simple warm hug lasted for two seconds before they released, not making Yan Shu feel particularly uncomfortable.

He seemed to gradually accept this kind of touch, which indeed seemed to enhance the bond between teammates.

After hugging Yu Chenzhou, Yan Shu maintained his position and looked towards Guan Shuo.

His expression clearly said: Come on, give me a hug.

“Mr. Cool” was caught off guard and, without time to react, he followed the motion and briefly hugged Yan Shu.

Guan Shuo: ??

Almost the next second, he realized —

What am I doing? Why are two grown men hugging each other! So melodramatic!

He swiftly retreated a meter away.

Yu Chenzhou could see Guan Shuo’s reddened ears. Was this a sign of reconciliation?

The “nanny” leader expressed his love for seeing the “children” getting along harmoniously, feeling deeply comforted.

After waiting for a while, the results were out, and Yu Chenzhou’s uncle personally reviewed them.

He looked at the obedient Yan Shu sitting on the chair, “Is this the kid from your group? This CT scan result…”

The three of them held their breath, suddenly tense.

“His brain looks perfectly healthy! Nothing to worry about!”

“Uncle! Can you stop pausing like that?” Yu Chenzhou’s heart was beating faster than Yan Shu’s, fearing it might be some incurable disease.

“The case you showed me was a patient with autoimmune encephalitis leading to symptoms of dementia, but this kid doesn’t have that issue. I think it’s just too much mental stress. Your group usually has intense training, right? Let him relax a bit, maybe those lost abilities will come back in time.”

Yan Shu: “…”

He could already see the days ahead, enduring the torment of “A Dayun Ge’er Starting from Scratch to Learn Singing and Dancing.”
