Gu Youran held the phone in her hand, her brows slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
"Honey, I heard from my colleagues that to eat at Yunding Restaurant, you have to make a reservation a month in advance."
She lowered her voice, fearing that others would hear her. After all, this was a big matter concerning the department dinner tonight.
"I don't want to embarrass you, so how about we change the place where we treat you tonight?"
On the other end of the phone, Shi Heng's voice was tinged with laughter. "Oh? Really? Honey, I really appreciate your consideration for me."
"But don't worry, tonight's dinner will be at Yunding Restaurant. Just go to work and don't worry. I'll take care of everything."
Gu Youran felt warm in her heart. It felt good to have someone to rely on.
She said with a relaxed tone and a smile: "Okay, husband, I'll trouble you then. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, she returned to the office.
Lin Hao was still in the office, busy preparing a report.
When he saw Gu Youran coming back, he looked over with a questioning look in his eyes.
Gu Youran smiled and said, "Director Lin, tonight's dinner will be at Yunding Restaurant. My friend has already booked a private room."
Lin Hao was a little surprised, but didn't ask any more questions. "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to count the number of people later."
Gu Youran didn't think about it anymore and followed Lin Hao to check on the wards.
Throughout the morning, time passed quietly in the busyness.
They shuttled between the wards, paying attention to the condition of each patient.
Lin Hao had an operation and stayed in the operating room at noon.
It was lunchtime, and Gu Youran went to the staff canteen alone.
Stepping into the cafeteria, she lined up for food as usual.
The atmosphere in the cafeteria today seems different from before.
Gu Youran was keenly aware that the gazes from those around him were filled with an indescribable complex emotion.
Be curious and explore.
But there is more contempt and disdain.
These gazes were like invisible ropes, binding her and making her feel uncomfortable.
Gu Youran felt confused and didn't know what was going on.
She muttered to herself, but didn't pay much attention to it.
He just quietly prepared the meal, took the plate, and walked to a secluded corner to sit down.
Plan to dine alone, avoiding those puzzling looks.
Soon after she sat down, a nurse came over and sat opposite her.
She knew this nurse, she was Tan Min who took her to complete the employment procedures.
Tan Min lowered her voice and said, "Doctor Gu, didn't you read the message in the group?"
Gu Youran was stunned, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
She asked confusedly, "What group? What message?"
Tan Min took out her mobile phone, unlocked it, opened a WeChat group, and handed it to her.
Gu Youran took the phone and the screen displayed the group chat interface of the "Cardiac Surgery Exchange Group".
There are already more than 200 people in the group.
Her fingers gently slid across the screen, carefully reading the messages in the group.
An hour ago, two photos were like pebbles thrown into a lake, breaking the tranquility of the group.
The protagonist in both photos is Gu Youran.
The background shows her getting out of luxury cars of different models on her way to work in the morning.
These two photos quickly sparked heated discussions in the group.
All kinds of speculations, discussions, and even malicious assumptions came like a tide.
"This new doctor, Dr. Gu, is so rich that she even has a luxury car to drive her to work?"
"Could it be that she won the lottery? Or is there some unspeakable secret behind her?"
"Maybe it's a rental car, just to show off."
"Humph, I think she's being kept by some rich man! After all, she has that face, so she has the capital. I've seen this kind of thing a lot!"
…
Looking at these glaring words, Gu Youran's face gradually turned ashen.
She was so angry that she almost laughed.
The two cars in the photo are both Shi Heng's.
Unexpectedly, such a small thing was filmed by someone and widely publicized in the group.
It became evidence of her vanity and being kept by someone.
Gu Youran took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
She returned the phone to Tan Min and said, "Thank you for your reminder. Please add me to the group and take a screenshot of the previous message and send it to me."
Tan Min immediately added Gu Youran’s WeChat and pulled her WeChat account into the group.
I also took a screenshot of the previous message and sent it to her.
Tan Min's voice rang out again, "Doctor Gu, don't take it too seriously. These people are just bored and jealous, that's why they talk about you like this."
"I believe you. You are a good person and an excellent doctor."
Gu Youran raised her head and looked into Tan Min's sincere eyes, feeling a little warm in her heart.
She smiled gratefully. "Thank you for trusting me. I know what I should do. I won't be defeated by these rumors."
Tan Min nodded, made a cheering gesture, and her eyes were full of encouragement.
Gu Youran's mood gradually improved. She put away her phone and started to enjoy her lunch.
The group was quiet for a while because of Gu Youran's joining.
But after Gu Youran joined the group, she did not explain herself but remained silent.
This makes some people more unscrupulous in their speculations and guesses about her.
Some people even started making up more outrageous rumors and stories to discredit her.
These rumors spread like wildfire, not only in the cardiac surgery department, but also to several other departments.
Even in the Department of Cardiac Surgery II, some people stood up to defend her.
But their voices seem insignificant in the huge wave of rumors.
