Chapter 4: I am Guan Weijun—translated by Elkin

When I next opened my eyes, there was only one thought in my mind.

Jiang Shuyu isn't just a healthy young lad. He has to be an athletic champion. No, maybe he is basically immortal?

By the bed, Shujun burst into tears, once again crying so hard that there wasn't a trace of the pretty girl left. Yet the only thought in my mind was, Just how tough is Jiang Shuyu? This is simply unreal!

To begin with, even though he had been in a coma after being knocked on the head by a tile, he was able to last through the moment of judgment with a wasted body like that. Next, even though he hadn't had time to recover, he fought a life-and-death match with the nurse, the nurse's boyfriend, and Lin-bó, suffered ten stab wounds to the shoulder, and lasted four days with an infected wound before he finally got antibiotics.

And he still isn't dead yet?

In my previous life, I'd seen no small number of people dying within the span of a few days just from an accidental cut on their hand getting infected!

Before I could even get a chance to speak to Shujun, she dashed out like a lunatic, screaming, "Èrgē's awake! Èrgē's awake!"

What followed was pretty much identical to my first day in this world, in that a heap of people rushed in and stared at me fixedly.

Jiang Shutian reached out, as though meaning to pat my shoulder, but halfway through the motion, he pulled his hand back before he actually patted me. My guess was that he was worried that if he even so much as touched me, his younger brother's shoulder would probably shatter.

I'd also just realized my hand looked like a shriveled stick, and it didn't seem like I could take another beating. I really had to take better care of this body.

"Shuyu, you've done very well." The first thing Jiang Shutian did was praise me, but his expression immediately darkened as he scolded me, "But you're pushing yourself too hard! You almost—"

He stopped there, unwilling to finish the sentence.

I smiled a little. There were a thousand things I wanted to say, to the point where I could literally grab my big brother and little sister and burst into tears. But I absolutely had to say something that totally ruined the mood.

"Dàgē, I need the bathroom..."

Jiang Shutian started, and then burst into laughter. "All right, Dàgē will take you there."

I balked, but just as I was about to protest, I gave up. In any case, there was no way I could do my business by myself in my current condition, and besides, having anyone other than Dàgē take me to the bathroom didn't seem any better.

Dàgē picked me up in a princess carry, causing a million conflicting feelings to rise in my heart. When I had been a woman, I'd never gotten this kind of treatment. Instead, it was only when I'd turned into a man that I got my first "princess carry." This was both comical and tragic at the same time.

When I was set on the toilet, I stared fixedly at Jiang Shutian. He looked back at me and asked in a puzzled manner, "Is there something wrong? Didn't you need the toilet?"

I replied honestly, "Dàgē, please leave. If you're around, I can't go."

Jiang Shutian laughed. "What do you mean, you can't go? Didn't the nurse watch you go before?" There, he suddenly stopped, and his tone changed completely as he demanded with a furious undertone, "Don't tell me she was just letting you go by yourself?"
