Chapter 153 Let's AA

Lin Xi didn't rush back. She told He Sitong to put her things down first and then come find her in the pantry at the end of the corridor. The pantry was also a standard hospital facility, complete with a water heater, a microwave, a sink, and so on.

However, this hospital does not have patients bringing their own meals, so naturally the microwave oven cannot be used. However, there is a rest area outside the tea room, with a table and two benches.

The structure of the third floor is exactly the same as that of the fourth floor. Lin Xi guessed that the inpatient department on all three floors is in the same situation.

Lin Xi sat in the tea room for a while, and then He Sitong came over. She still had a smile on her face, as if she had no worries at all.

She saw Lin Xi sitting near her, and another stool near the wall. Naturally, she wanted to sit on that stool, but Lin Xi stopped her, saying, "No, don't sit on that." There were only two stools, one occupied by Lin Xi, and the other empty. But in reality, Shen Sang Ning was sitting on that stool.

Lin Xi is a person who clearly distinguishes between public and private matters. Regardless of public or private matters, this stool cannot be given to He Sitong to sit on, right? This is mainly because Lin Xi's public and private matters are all about Shen Sang Ning. He Sitong is sitting down, and he lets his wife stand up? What is he thinking? She is that kind of person.

Although He Sitong didn't understand what was going on, she still listened to Lin Xi and stood obediently in front of her.

At this moment, the two of them were like a senior with bad intentions who sat on a chair, asked the junior to stand, and then scolded her himself.

If the person standing in front of her was not He Sitong, but someone else or a ghost, Lin Xi would definitely say that her wife was sitting next to her, and she didn't care what the other person thought. But now she didn't want He Sitong to feel that she was a patient, so she had to use her identity as a senior nurse to give He Sitong a talk therapy.

Of course, if He Sitong asked the reason, Lin Xi would still tell the truth: "My wife is sitting next to me, how can you go over and sit there." Among all the things, the wife is the most important, and her first priority is not to deny Shen Sang Ning.

Fortunately, He Sitong was indeed a good girl, and Lin Xi didn’t explain the reason, so she just stood up when she was asked to.

Seeing that He Sitong had already entered the state, Lin Xi began to talk therapy: "What did you study in college before? I see that your hands are still quite green."

"I just studied medical care." He Sitong's eyes were a little confused. She was not very confident when she said this, and there was a flash of confusion in her eyes. After thinking for a while, she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "Sister Xi, I just came here for internship, my hands are a little unfamiliar, but it will be fine after a while. I have learned all these."

Lin Xi raised her hands, rested her elbows on the table in front of her, and supported her head with her palms: "Hmm?" She said, looking at her expression, she was a little noncommittal. He Sitong was anxious and explained her professional ability: "My professional course scores in school are very high, and I have also passed the level 6 English test.

"Don't worry about this, Sister Xi."

"Oh, you're a medical student and you took the CET-6 exam. You must be a bit of a top student."

He Sitong was stunned for a moment, but still nodded: "Yes, Sister Xi, don't worry..."

Lin Xi suddenly changed the subject and asked her, "How long have you been in the hospital? Since your grades are so good, I think if you do more work, you will soon become a skilled worker. You won't be so bad that you can't even insert a needle."

"I... I'm here..." He Sitong thought for a while before answering uncertainly, "It seems like I've been here for three weeks."

No, I can't ask this question like this.

Lin Xi discovered the key. Although He Sitong had already sensed something was wrong, it was clear from her words that she still believed she was a medical worker and was very receptive to her identity. She didn't really know He Sitong, and their occasional chats were only about superficial things. There was no way she could wake He Sitong up.

We can't just wait for her to awaken on her own. How long do we have to wait? Besides, He Sitong also eats the meals provided by the hospital. What if she becomes even more stupid after eating?

Lin Xi suddenly changed her mind and laughed twice: "Don't be nervous, I'm not a teacher who is going to teach you professional knowledge, I'm just asking out of curiosity." Lin Xi's words obviously made He Sitong feel relieved. Then, she heard Lin Xi say: "By the way, what do you think of the food in the hospital?"

He Sitong's expression suddenly became indescribable, just like the food in the hospital. Lin Xi understood. She also felt that the hospital food was particularly unpalatable. There was nothing she could do about it. Taste cannot deceive people. Unpalatable food is unpalatable.

However, in front of Lin Xi, this "senior", He Sitong couldn't say it too bluntly. She wanted to say it tactfully: "It's just... maybe the chef's method doesn't suit my taste..."

"You don't have to be so tactful. If it tastes bad, just say it tastes bad."

He Sitong confirmed that Lin Xi also felt that it was not tasty, so she simply stopped hiding it and told the truth: "Yes, Sister Xi, the food in the hospital is really terrible. I almost had some left over yesterday. The sisters at the nurses' station said it was not good to waste food, so I basically ate it all."

Oh no, this kid has been cheated.

Lin Xi thought about it before saying to He Sitong, "Even if it doesn't taste good, you can't force it into your stomach." She began to list the harms of eating poorly, "Once you don't eat well, it will be very painful. Think about it, if you don't eat well, your digestive system will slow down due to your own psychological reasons, and if you don't digest well, you won't sleep well."

"It's okay for others to have trouble sleeping, but you're a nurse. If something happens to you, won't the patient be the one who suffers? So for the sake of the patients, you can't eat so poorly."

He Sitong was a little surprised when she heard what Lin Xi said: "Is... is that the case?"

"I'm from the Department of Gastroenterology. You have to trust me."

He Sitong noticed something was wrong: "Sister Xi, you are from the Department of Gastroenterology, why did you come to our hospital? And is there a Department of Gastroenterology? I always remember it was the Department of Gastroenterology..."

"I was recruited by our hospital, which shows that I have great medical skills. Anyway, it's just like what I said, we ordinary people really can't eat bad food all the time. It's okay for patients, there are many things that patients can't eat, so it's okay if the food is bad, but nurses are not sick, so there is no need for them to eat it too."

The slight feeling of something wrong that He Sitong had originally sensed in her heart was completely dispelled by Lin Xi's words, because she also felt that - people should not eat disgusting things!

She nodded quickly, indicating her agreement with Lin Xi, and then fell into Lin Xi's trap and asked the most crucial question: "But how can we eat if we don't eat in the hospital cafeteria?"

"It's very simple." Lin Xi stopped supporting her head and snapped her fingers. Her words sounded like heavenly music to He Sitong: "We can eat takeout." She saw a gleam in He Sitong's eyes. It was obvious that the other party had already thought of the things that could be eaten out.

But I'm sorry, there is a lack of delicious food in the world of Rule Monsters, so I can only order some stir-fried dishes.

"I brought you along to eat because you looked familiar and I thought you were a good girl. They don't know. Of course, you can't tell them and secretly throw away the lunch box, otherwise it will make the other nurses suspicious."

He Sitong subconsciously felt that this was not right: "This is not good. It's a waste of food. It's so unfair to the farmers."

He Sitong is even more obedient than Chen Sangning... That's not right. Chen Sangning's obedience is just an act; deep down, she's still a badass. But He Sitong is truly obedient. Otherwise, she wouldn't have said such words, which made Lin Xi feel guilty.

Lin Xi's guilt was fleeting, and she quickly found a "positive" reason to convince He Sitong: "When the food was cooked like this, it was already wasted. The pot belongs to the canteen chef. What does it have to do with us? If he had cooked the food better, wouldn't we have done such a thing?"

——That really makes a lot of sense.

Under Lin Xi's coaxing and deception, He Sitong agreed to what Lin Xi said: to eat takeout with her.

"It's just... Sister Xi, I don't have much money on me right now. I may not be able to pay for the 50% fee with you."

If it was Shen Sang Ning who said this, Lin Xi would have just waved his hand and said, "What money? I should treat you to a meal." But the person opposite was He Sitong, so Lin Xi's stinginess came up again: "This is easy. Don't you have to pay your salary after you finish your work this month? You can just give me the money when the time comes. By the way, there is also a delivery fee for takeout, so don't complain about it when the time comes."

At this moment, He Sitong was thinking: How expensive can it be to deliver takeout and run errands?

She'd ordered so much takeout in the real world, and the first thing that came to mind was, of course, the delivery fees she usually paid. The cheapest ones were free, usually only a couple of yuan, while even the most expensive Kaifeng dishes were only nine yuan. Anything above that, and she wouldn't even glance at them.

But now He Sitong's mind was empty, and she didn't even think that there were no takeaway deliverymen in the world of Rule Weird Stories. So their takeaways could only be delivered by Lin Xi's dear wife with all her heart.

In Lin Xi's heart, Chen Sangning's status was so high that it was an insult to her to deliver food to her. How could He Sitong, a mere person, be worthy of eating the food delivered by his wife herself?

So you have to pay more.

Both of them laughed happily. He Sitong lamented how good her predecessor was, but Lin Xi was thinking that she had been taken advantage of.

Before saying goodbye to He Sitong, Lin Xi specifically reminded her, "Don't tell the people at your nurses' station about me. They don't like me very much. If they knew you and I were close, they might exclude you."

"Ah... okay."

Although He Sitong didn't know why Lin Xi was disliked by the sisters at the nurses' station, since Lin Xi said this for her, she certainly wouldn't be so ignorant as to tell others about her relationship with Lin Xi.

He Sitong is just a little silly, but not really stupid.

The two agreed to meet here for lunch at noon, and then returned to their posts.

Lin Xi returned to her room after seeing the chaotic scene in the corridor. Before entering her room, a patient caught her attention. She was sure that this patient must be a human, a broadcaster.

Who made this guy have golden hair and look like a foreigner?
