The head of internal medicine nodded quickly, "Okay, then I'll go to the lounge to rest for a while. If anything really happens in the ward, you must call me."
The internist had just said "OK" and before he could finish his words, the director of internal medicine left.
In the corridor, the director of internal medicine sneezed one after another. The internal medicine doctor in the office listened to the sneezes in the corridor and muttered to himself: "It's like this, but he's still okay. The director is so stubborn!"
That night, the head of internal medicine tossed and turned in the lounge, unable to sleep. The internist in his office, hunched over his desk, felt the same way, feeling uneasy. Whenever he closed his eyes, it was as if he could see the internist's eyes staring back at him.
However, nothing major happened in the internal medicine ward that night.
In the second half of the night, Xiao Zhao and Xu Zhiyi came out from the lounge and the ward to take over the shifts of Dr. Li and Dr. Qian.
In the dark night, Xu Zhiyi looked at Qin Zheng who was sleeping, kissed him on the cheek, whispered, "Sweet dreams, I'm going to work.", and went out.
In the office, after the four people finished their shift, just as Dr. Qian was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly stopped, walked in front of Xu Zhiyi and Xiao Zhao, looked at Xu Zhiyi, and then looked at Xiao Zhao and Dr. Li beside him.
Doctor Qian looked at the two people who were motionless and had no intention of leaving. He swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Xiao Zhao looked at Dr. Qian and said, "Dr. Qian, is there something wrong? Do you want me to step aside for a moment?"
Xiao Zhao muttered to himself: "I didn't disturb you, did I? Besides, the director hasn't let me go yet. It's not good for you to be alone in a room with the director. Even if you kill me, I won't say that I didn't want to leave because I wanted to know what you and the director were talking about."
Xu Zhiyi naturally knew what was going on, but it was not acceptable for Dr. Qian to be so indecisive.
Xu Zhiyi pretended to say, "Doctor Qian, are you alright? If not, go back and rest. You've been tired for a long time, so go back quickly."
As soon as Xu Zhiyi left, Dr. Qian called Xu Zhiyi from behind, fearing that Xu Zhiyi would leave this time and not give him another chance.
"Director, I...I want to give it a try. I want to reform myself."
Xiao Zhao froze beside him, his mouth wide enough to fit an egg. He said in disbelief, "Doctor Qian, you, you, you, are you still you? You, you, you, are you possessed by a ghost?"
Doctor Qian looked at Xiao Zhao seriously, "Xiao Zhao, what are you talking about? Don't you know what you can and can't say? Sooner or later, you'll be hurt by your mouth."
Xiao Zhao quickly covered his mouth, his eyes darting left and right as he muttered, "I was wrong, Doctor Qian, Director. I just spoke too quickly. I won't do that again."
Doctor Qian looked at Xiao Zhao and smiled in his heart: Humph, I can't cure you yet.
Dr. Qian looked at Xu Zhiyi anxiously, trying to see through her expression. Did she agree or not?
Alas, women’s hearts are as unpredictable as the sea!
Xu Zhiyi nodded at Dr. Qian. "Okay, go home and rest for a day after your night shift tomorrow. When you return to work, we'll have a good discussion."
After Dr. Qian received Xu Zhiyi's accurate answer, his face was filled with smiles and a hint of surprise. He said, "Okay, Director. I will come to see you as soon as I get to work the day after tomorrow." With that, Dr. Qian walked out of the office with a smile on his face.
Dr. Li looked at Dr. Qian, then looked at Xu Zhiyi, his eyes full of gratitude.
As soon as Xu Zhiyi sat down, Xiao Zhao immediately sat down opposite her. "Director, do you think Dr. Qian is truly determined to change himself this time? Dr. Qian won't regret it, right?"
Xu Zhiyi shook his head, "I don't know."
Xiao Zhao sighed. "Oh, I hope Dr. Qian changes quickly. In fact, Dr. Qian's skills are even better than Dr. Zhang's. If that incident hadn't happened back then, he would have been the department director long ago, and wouldn't have been unknown in the hospital and bullied for so many years."
Xu Zhiyi nodded, thinking, "Yeah, it's such a pity for them. If they were born in the 21st century, they would have already become successful people. They wouldn't be stuck in the hospital like they are now, nor would they be in obscurity and decadence because they have no one to guide them."
Xiao Zhao looked at Xu Zhiyi and jokingly asked, "Director, your Chief of Staff Qin, how come he's so confident in letting you work the night shift alone? Why doesn't he come over to keep you company?"
Xu Zhiyi's face flushed. "He's here with you. So, he can have a good night's sleep. Besides, he has to go to work tomorrow. If he doesn't get enough rest, it would be inappropriate for him to go to training with dark circles under his eyes."
"Oh, so our director is worried about Chief of Staff Qin. Such a strong love is really enviable."
Xu Zhiyi didn't respond to Xiao Zhao's teasing. Thinking of Qin Zheng sleeping in the ward, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
That night, Old Man Zhang managed to survive. His vital signs were normal, and nothing unexpected happened. The lights in the Dean's and the Political Commissar's offices remained brightly lit all night until five o'clock the next morning, when the Dean finally drifted off to a drowsy sleep.
The next morning, Qin Zheng had breakfast in the hospital, went home to wash up, and then went to the army. Unexpectedly, Qin Zheng was stopped by Wu Wei as soon as he entered the army.
Wu Wei said, "Qin Zheng, you must have been the reincarnation of a love-struck man in your previous life. Look at you now. Your wife works in the hospital, and you still have to bring a lot of food to serve her. Does Qin Zheng love his wife so much?"
Qin Zheng asked doubtfully, "Old Wu, what are you talking about? Why are you being so sarcastic? If you really have nothing to do, go get your soldiers to train properly instead of just sitting around doing nothing and talking behind your back. Do you think they can win you a prize at the martial arts competition in the near future? Do you think any of your soldiers can handle that?"
Qin Zheng continued to curse, "Besides, what's wrong with me taking care of my wife with all the bags and things? She's my wife. I haven't done anything wrong, and I haven't done anything illegal. Can't I feel sorry for her?"
Wu Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, of course. You can do whatever you want in the future. Even if you do something wrong, it has nothing to do with me." With that, Wu Wei turned and left.
Qin Zheng walked along the street with a bewildered look on his face, cursing in his heart: Damn it, he just stayed with Guaiguai in the hospital for a whole night. Why did he act like he had done something terribly wrong?
No, he might be talked bad about behind his back, but he can't be good.
Qin Zheng kept thinking to himself that he must cut off the source and not let them insult Guaiguai. However, Qin Zheng was too busy today and had no time to investigate. He finally got off work at noon, but luckily someone stopped him.
At the same time, Xu Zhiyi in the hospital also heard about this incident, and then asked Xiao Zhao to investigate how this matter became known and how it was spread.
