Lu Changfeng retracted his gaze and opened the book: "No, I want to read for a while, close the door when you go out."
How could Xiao Ru still have the nerve to stay? She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left.
In the corridor, I met Sheng Anning again as she was seeing Zhou Chaoyang coming out of the office. The two of them were still arm in arm, both with smiles on their faces, especially Zhou Chaoyang's smile, which was so bright, just like the rising sun, warm and bright.
Xiao Ru took two steps back unconsciously, as if she couldn't stand the light and wanted to hide in the dark so as not to be discovered.
But Sheng An Ning didn't let her do what she wanted, and shouted: "Doctor Xiao, thank you for taking my shift this morning."
Xiao Ru forced a smile: "You're welcome, it's what I should do."
Sheng An Ning smiled sincerely: "How can it be expected? I just heard from Director Li that you offered to help me with the ward rounds on duty. I am really touched. I will treat you to lunch at noon. My sister Chaoyang is here too, so let's go eat together. The New Year is over, and many canteens are open. There is a good noodle shop, shall we go?"
In today's canteens, except for state-owned restaurants where you can order stir-fried dishes, most of the other restaurants are noodle restaurants or mutton soup restaurants. When you say you're going to eat, you're just going to eat a bowl of noodles or mutton soup.
Xiao Ru wanted to refuse, but Zhou Chaoyang urged her with a smile: "Yes, let's go together. I was just saying that it would be boring for just the two of us to have dinner together."
Seeing Xiao Ru still hesitating, Sheng An Ning said, "Let's call Xiao Huang as well. It will be more lively with more people."
Xiao Ru had no way to refuse, so she could only bite the bullet and agree: "Okay, let's meet at noon."
I originally wanted to say that I would go after buying lunch for Lu Changfeng at noon, but for some reason, facing Zhou Chaoyang's burning gaze, I really couldn't open my mouth.
When it was time to get off work at noon, Sheng An Ning had no patients, so she and Zhou Chaoyang went to call Nurse Xiao Huang and then Xiao Ru.
Xiao Ru was still struggling over whether or not to tell Lu Changfeng. Seeing the three of them all coming, she once again thought of Lu Changfeng's attitude and his aggressive questions, so she made up her mind and went out to eat with Sheng An Ning and the others.
Nurse Xiao Huang was still quite curious about Zhou Chaoyang: "Are you usually not allowed to go out? I heard that your management is quite strict. Although you are not a soldier, you are almost like a soldier."
Zhou Chaoyang hummed and laughed, "It's not that strict. I'm out now, right? I just have to be more rigorous when I'm working. Actually, it's not as difficult as your job. You can't be distracted even a little bit when you're giving an injection."
Nurse Xiao Huang sighed, "I'm still distracted. Last time, when I was giving a patient an IV, I failed to find a vein twice and almost got scolded to death. It's not my fault. The patient's blood vessels are deflated due to his age and long-term malnutrition, so it's hard to find the vein. But the patient's family members kept nagging beside him, asking him to be gentle and not to let their elderly suffer. If they were really so filial, would they let the elderly starve to malnutrition?"
Zhou Chaoyang chuckled and looked at Nurse Xiao Huang with sympathy: "Then you are really pitiful to meet such a patient."
Nurse Xiao Huang sighed: "I meet all kinds of weirdos every day."
Seeing Zhou Chaoyang and Nurse Xiao Huang chatting happily, Sheng Anning also took the initiative to talk to Xiao Ru: "I saw you suturing the surgery that day, your technique was very good."
Xiao Ru smiled and said, "These are just basic skills. And that's all I know. It's far inferior to what you can do to perform brain tumor surgery."
Sheng An Ning took the opportunity to ask, "I saw a scar on Jian Cang's head. Did he have surgery? What's the reason?"
Xiao Ru was still alert: "There is shrapnel going in."
Sheng An Ning nodded: "That's indeed dangerous. Is this also the reason for the injury? Are there any other complications after the operation?"
Xiao Ru shook her head: "Except for the amnesia, everything else is normal."
Sheng An Ning frowned: "Is it because the shrapnel damaged the nerves? I know a little about this."
Xiao Ru smiled stiffly: "The doctor has already said that it is an irreversible damage. Whether the memory can be restored depends on the later recovery."
Sheng Anning smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as people are alive."
Xiao Ru nodded: "Yes, it is not easy to save his life. Jian Cang's mother also said that she hopes he can be safe and obedient in the future."
Sheng An Ning didn't say anything else, and the four of them went to a beef noodle restaurant not far from the hospital.
While waiting for the noodles, Zhou Chaoyang took the initiative to talk to Xiao Ru: "It's quite fun to wait for spring here. The river in the south will have a lot of carp after the ice melts. At that time, there will be a few fish stew stalls by the river, and you can sit by the river and drink fish soup and eat fish."
After he finished speaking, he paused and said, "There is none now. Otherwise, you can go buy some and make soup for your fiancé. It is also very nourishing."
Xiao Ru felt inexplicably guilty and had an uncomfortable meal. She regretted very much that she had agreed to have dinner with Sheng An Ning and said she would never come again no matter what.
After dinner, Zhou Chaoyang went back to work, while Sheng Anning, Xiao Ru, and nurse Xiao Huang returned to the hospital.
Nurse Xiao Huang was still chirping: "Doctor Sheng, your sister-in-law has a very good personality. I don't know why, but when I see her, I feel better. Talking to her, I feel that all my troubles are gone."
Sheng An Ning nodded in agreement: "That's true. Chaoyang has a pure heart and is a person with positive energy. She never complains about bad things and is very proactive in solving any difficulties she encounters. So being with such a person makes me feel very happy."
Nurse Xiao Huang was a little envious: "I really like her personality."
Xiao Ru felt uncomfortable after hearing this and didn't want to hear anything about Zhou Chaoyang, so she found an excuse and left in a hurry.
Nurse Xiao Huang looked at Xiao Ru's hurriedly leaving figure and was very surprised: "I think Dr. Xiao has been worried these past two days. He is not as enthusiastic as he was when he first came. He is always in a daze."
Sheng An Ning smiled but said nothing. Xiao Ru was worried, probably because she felt guilty.
Xiao Ru did not return to the hospital, but went to the guesthouse to find her father Xiao Quanrong.
After listening to Xiao Ru, Xiao Quanrong didn't take it to heart at all: "What does it matter? Jian Cang's mother will be here tomorrow. I will ask her to tell Jian Cang to get you married quickly. As long as you get married, what problems can't be solved?"
"No matter how capable Jian Cang is, does he dare to divorce?"
Xiao Ru was a little surprised: "He's arriving tomorrow? Didn't you say you'd arrive in two days? Jian Cang doesn't know yet."
Xiao Quanrong sneered: "How could Jian Cang's mother sit still after meeting so many acquaintances here? She applied to fly here."
