Chapter 1: America Reborn
……
"Da Da...!"
The crisp sound of high heels colliding with the marble floor resounded in the hallways of the inpatient department of Woodrow Hospital in San Francisco's Sunset District.
"Ms. Berg, this is it!"
Chrissy Berg turned her head to look at the room marked 305, and after the nurse pushed open the door, she stepped inside.
It was a two-person ward, but in the white ward, which was filled with the smell of disinfectant water, there was only one young patient for the time being.
Chrissy Berg frowned slightly, she wasn't used to the smell.
After a glance, he was leaning back against the hospital bed at this time, looking a little dull, with a slightly pale young man on his green face.
"Mr. Guo?"
The young man looked a little sluggish, and paused for a moment before turning his head to look at her.
Chrissy Berg couldn't help frowning when she saw this, although the responsibility for this car accident was not entirely on their side, but if they were intact and the other party's brain was damaged, there was no doubt that the judge would not favor them in court. Of course, in the United States, money can do almost everything, and the law is not a problem. But doing so would bring reputational damage to her employer.
"Are you...?"
Looking at this middle-aged white woman in a black lady's suit, frowning, and looking at her with a serious and solemn expression, Guo Shouyun asked tentatively after a brief look.
"Hello, Mr. Guo. I'm Chrissy Berg, an assistant to the person involved in the car accident, and I heard Dr. Ritter say you're awake and came to visit!"
"Thank you!"
Looking at the other party's right hand that took the initiative to stretch out, Guo Shouyun also raised his hand and shook it briefly with the other party.
Chrissy Berg is obviously a shrewd and capable professional elite, and after a brief greeting, she continued rhetorically: "Mr. Guo, the responsibility for this car accident is not entirely ours. If you hadn't run a red light, it wouldn't have happened. However, considering Mr. Guo's situation at the time, we have no intention of holding you responsible. In addition, we are very sympathetic to your injury as a result. So, this time, we will pay for all the medical expenses during your hospitalization, and we will also take care of the repair of your damaged car, and this is the end of this matter!"
Guo Shouyun silently looked at the somewhat aggressive and strong woman in front of him, the other party was obviously a master of negotiation, and as soon as he came up, he put the responsibility on him first, and then put forward a request for a private settlement.
Of course, what the other party said is also true. The cause of the accident was indeed caused by 'he' running a red light. But despite this, Guo Shouyun still hates the other party's strong attitude.
"Yes!"
Guo Shouyun was silent for a moment and nodded.
Although he hated each other a little in his heart, he knew very well what was most important to him right now.
Chrissy Berg breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the information, the young Chinese boy in front of her is a genius whose IQ and EQ are far beyond ordinary people, she thought that it would be difficult to convince the other party, but she didn't expect it to be completed so easily.
"Since Mr. Guo has agreed, please sign this document!"
After taking the document handed over by the other party, Guo Shouyun read it carefully and signed his name on the back.
It was only then that a slightly stiff smile appeared on Chrissy Berg's face.
"Mr. Guo, I wish you a speedy recovery. Oh, by the way, this is your car key!" After putting a bunch of keys from his handbag on the cabinet next to Guo Shouyun's hospital bed, he left a 'goodbye', and then turned around and left the ward cleanly.
"These rich people are always so domineering, and they don't even say a word of apology when they hurt people!"
It wasn't until the other party left the door that the fat nurse, who had been standing next to him and didn't speak, spoke angrily.
"Lady Emma, can you do me a favor?"
After Guo Shouyun smiled faintly, he couldn't deny it.
"What's the busy?"
"I want three notebooks, plus a pen and a bottle of ink!"
"Yes, but don't you read?"
"No!" Guo Shouyun shook his head, took out his wallet from the drawer of the bedside table on his right, took out $100 and handed it over.
"It doesn't take so much!"
"If there's any leftover, buy me all the laptops!"
"Okay!"
Nurse Emma nodded, took the dollar in Guo Shouyun's hand, and left a sentence of 'rest well', then turned around and walked out of the ward.
It wasn't until her back disappeared that Guo Shouyun sighed, leaned his back against the head of the bed, and looked at everything in front of him, with a deep emotion and excitement in his eyes.
As a senior post-80s urban network writer who works part-time at the starting point, he never thought that he would be able to cross the day when he could cross over!
"It's just a pity that my book is a god!"
Before crossing over, he had just caught fire because of his new novel, and he successfully bought a house and a car in the magic capital, and successfully found a beautiful girlfriend who was ten years younger than him. Seeing that he is about to start a family in middle age, get married and have children, but he is inexplicably reborn?
However, sighing and sighing, there was no trace of decline on Guo Shouyun's face. Also, from 2019 to 2000, nearly 20 years of foreknowledge is enough for him to 'climb to the sky' in this turbulent era.
After living for thirty-five years in his last life, most of the time he was in a state of 'poor eating soil', and after having enough of the pain of having no money, Guo Shouyun definitely did not have the slightest idea of 'guarding his wife and children after making a little money'.
Just like Wang Dazhui said in "Never Expected", becoming a CEO, marrying Bai Fumei, and reaching the pinnacle of life lived up to God's mercy and gave him a chance to make a big difference.
"It's a pity that it's already mid-February, and it's not been a few days before the outbreak of the NASDAQ crisis, otherwise I would have taken advantage of this opportunity to complete the original capital accumulation!"
Regret is regret, but now for Guo Shouyun, the most important thing is to take care of his injury first, and then use this time in the hospital to make a detailed plan for his future development.
Nurse Emma's movements were not slow, and in less than half an hour, she bought everything Guo Shouyun wanted.
"By the way, Ms. Emma, when will I be discharged?"
Although he couldn't catch up with the NASDAQ crisis, Guo Shouyun didn't want to stay in the hospital too much and continue to waste precious time.
"It depends on how well you recover... Don't worry, that Ms. Berg has already paid you a month's hospital fee, so you don't have to spend money!"
Looking at Nurse Emma, who turned around and left after finishing speaking, Guo Shouyun didn't say much. He doesn't care about money at all, it's about time.
And the memory of the body he received, this Chinese young man with the same name as himself, the English name Bruce Guo, in the eyes of ordinary people, barely belongs to the rich second generation.
However, compared with the other party's net worth of about several million dollars, what Guo Shouyun admires the most is that this guy is a real scholar.
At the age of 11, he won the first place in the junior high school group of the California Science Competition, at the age of 13, he won the gold medal in the mathematics subject of the Intel International Science and Engineering Grand Prix, at the age of 15, he won the first prize in the International Mathematical Olympiad, and at the age of 17, he entered the famous "Stanford University" from the top private high school in the United States, "Harker Middle School". Now 19 years old, he has a master's degree in computer science and a bachelor's degree in economics from Stanford University. Before the car accident, I had just finished the bachelor's defense of 'History', and from what I remembered, the 'History' bachelor's degree basically didn't run away.
And this is not only a top student, but also the main guard of the college basketball team, with a height of 187cm, a strong physique, and superior talent on the guitar and piano, plus a handsome appearance.
It can be said that compared with Guo Shouyun, who graduated from two domestic literature departments, has no family background and no background, is only 172cm tall, and has an ordinary appearance, a slightly chubby figure, and basically has no female popularity, this guy with the same name and surname as himself is the undisputed pride of heaven in Mary Sue's novels.
"It's a pity that 'God is jealous of talents'!"
In addition to sighing, Guo Shouyun also felt that he was very lucky, inheriting a body that had laid an excellent foundation.
"No wonder I feel that my memory has improved so much all of a sudden, not only the memory of the past is exceptionally clear at this time, but also I can remember it after two or three times when I see things!
After shaking his head, calming down his somewhat complicated thoughts in his heart, he soaked up the ink from the pen next to him, grabbed a black thick-leather notebook and opened it, and after thinking for a while, he began to concentrate on writing on it.
There is a saying that 'a good memory is better than a bad pen'. It is inevitable to forget the content that you will use in the future, and at this time, while the memory is clear and you have time, it is natural to record it well.
Of course, in order to avoid others seeing the clues. When it comes to sensitive content such as time, person's name, company name, etc., he replaces it with pinyin, Arabic numerals, or symbols that only he can understand.
Originally, Guo Shouyun thought that it would be enough to write two or three notebooks, but he never thought that when he was discharged from the hospital a month later, all the seven notebooks that Emma bought would be used.
He changed out of his hospital gown, packed his most important notebook, carried it behind him, and then briefly looked at the room where he had stayed for a month after returning from the crossing, turned around and walked out. After going through the discharge procedures, Guo Shouyun left Woodrow Hospital without informing anyone, driving the yellow Chevrolet he had just bought not long ago.
