Synopsis

Liu Sheng, 37, is a doctoral graduate of a top medical school and an associate chief physician in neurosurgery at a leading Grade III Class A hospital. His skills are exceptional, and his heart is sincere. He regards medicine as his calling and puts his patients’ well-being first: he has paid nearly 420,000 yuan in medical bills for impoverished patients, and insists on prescribing the most cost-effective treatment plans, which makes him an “outlier.” The department director suppresses him, his colleagues ostracize him, and he is saddled with every exhausting night shift and menial task. For years, he has supported Xiaofeng, a child in a remote mountain village, and treats him as his own. He has even changed the diapers of an elderly woman with no family to care for her. His world is simple and pure: be a good person, heal the sick, and save lives.

Then fate plays its cruelest joke on him: he is diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer, an aggressive malignancy with a very poor prognosis. The hands that once wielded precise surgical instruments and battled death now tremble even as he tries to hold a cup of water. He sells his home and quits his job, and the painful treatment quickly drains his savings and strength.

Original New Books

Every time I browse the reading slump lists, I see the same familiar old books. Any new ones? They have to be good, of course: no mindless, brainless writing. I want solid logic and good prose. Any genre is fine.

Some Lesser-Known Books

Are there any stories where the protagonist turns into a ghost? No System and no cheat abilities. I've read a few before, but they were too obscure and got dropped because hardly anyone read them. I'd like something well-written, not the kind where you can see exactly where it's going and guess the next line.

Any Good Books Like The Three-Body Problem?

I don’t want anything abstract. I just want to read about different, original ways of deterring people. For example, a non-technological deterrent on the level of proposing a forest so deadly that it wears everyone out.
