As he was told, Lu Zhi touched his empty belly and felt an unbearable hunger as if awakened from a dream.
After being busy all morning without stopping and overexerting himself, Lu Zhi suddenly realized that his legs were weakening.
She did not refuse Dr. Fu's invitation. She accepted it with a smile and paused for half a second, then walked to Dr. Fu's side unintentionally.
The female doctor who had been secretly watching her disappeared. Lu Zhi opened her mouth, but before she could ask anything, she suddenly felt her heart contract and ache, and every breath she took caused a piercing pain.
The unwellness made Lu Zhi's smile fade unconsciously, and the blood color on her red lips faded almost half.
The rapid and disordered breathing only lasted for a moment, and before Dr. Fu noticed something was wrong, Lu Zhi quickly adjusted himself.
Her mood quickly dropped, and the world in her eyes began to change in color and distortion.
Black holes of varying sizes appeared on the floor and walls of the corridor. Countless heads popped out from them, grinning hideously and letting out eardrum-piercing screams.
Lu Zhi quickly glanced at Dr. Fu, who looked calm, and realized that she was having an attack.
She was the only one who could see the heads of people whose sanity points were dropping rapidly before her eyes.
...
...
"Why wasn't Dr. Lu waiting for me in the office? What were you looking at by the window just now?"
Doctor Fu's tone was normal and relaxed, but he was actually asking about Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi tried to keep up with Dr. Fu's long legs and big strides, and smiled apologetically: "I left after you left because I was afraid of delaying Dr. Fu. I walked around this floor, but I couldn't find you, so I waited for you to come back by the window."
Her tone and demeanor completely revealed the little girl's thoughts, but she still thought that her secret crush was invisible to others.
Satisfied with the woman's fond gaze on him, the smile on Doctor Fu's face deepened a little, but he didn't scold her too much.
I didn't expect this person to be so meticulous. He didn't let down his guard even when facing the personality Lu Zhi revealed. Lu Zhi's heart sank when he noticed this.
There is still a tough battle to be fought in the evening. Hopefully, one night will allow them to successfully bring Ruan Zhi's conspiracy to the surface.
Otherwise, what awaits them might be a world full of monsters.
This time the symptoms came on quickly and went away quickly. Lu Zhi only felt uncomfortable for less than a minute, and his temples were throbbing.
After crossing the iron bridge and returning to the main building, Lu Zhi met Wang Zile and Xia Wenjun on the way.
Wang Zile's direction is consistent with theirs.
Xia Wenjun is a patient, in the opposite direction of them.
On the way, Lu Zhi kept talking and laughing with Dr. Fu. Wang Zile, who was following behind them, was curious and kept glancing at them.
The staff restaurant was on the same floor. When they entered, many doctors were already sitting at their seats eating in groups of three or four.
Nothing disgusting happened at the food pick-up window. Lu Zhi ordered one meat and one vegetable. The greasy egg drop soup was not appetizing at all.
Doctor Fu was the last in line. As soon as Lu Zhi sat down at the table, he heard Wang Zile's deliberately low voice: "What's going on between you and the NPC? An office romance? Do you have side quests?"
Side quests are also known as hidden quests. They have an extremely low trigger rate and receive relatively high rewards. According to Wang Zile's popular science, the difficulty coefficient of side quests is relatively high, and death and money coexist.
Lu Zhi shook her head and just said something about the character problem before changing the subject because she saw Dr. Fu walking towards them.
He didn't talk while eating or sleeping. Apart from the murmurs of conversation that sounded like the buzzing of mosquitoes in his ears, Lu Zhi made very little noise while eating.
She ate at a fast pace, but her movements were graceful and calm, without any of the embarrassment or urgency of wolfing down the food.
"vomit!"
In the cold atmosphere, a short dry retching sound made most people's faces turn pale, and the rice balls in their stomachs rolled up and down.
Lu Zhi swallowed the chewed rice with difficulty. He hardly touched the meat on the plate, but finished the vegetables quickly.
She looked towards the source of the sound - it was a fat woman who was scratching her throat with her plump hands.
With another violent retching, the food in her stomach mixed with smelly mucus sprayed onto the wooden table for four people.
Sticky, colorful liquid dripped from the corner of the table. Many people took a few steps back in disgust, their eyes full of disgust.
This kind of thing seemed to happen quite often. Doctor Fu, who was sitting opposite Lu Zhi, turned a deaf ear to her and ate happily, his attention completely focused on the plate in front of him.
"Doctor Ruan," someone stood up, "Why don't you apply to your superiors for permission to dine alone? The dean is your distant cousin, and he will definitely consider your request."
"Yes, you've made it difficult for all of us to eat. It's okay if it happens once or twice, but if you do it every day, I feel disgusted even if you don't!"
"Didn't the dean cure your obesity and anorexia?"
"Oh my god, this smell is so disgusting! I'm going to vomit!"
“…”
The constant stream of accusations made the lifeless staff cafeteria lively again.
After swallowing the last bite of food, Dr. Fu elegantly took out toilet paper from his pocket and wiped the oil that accidentally splashed on the corner of his mouth.
Hearing the voice, he looked over with a normal expression.
Suddenly, his pupils shrank and he stood up abruptly from his seat.
All the employees present also stood up in unison.
The plastic bench beneath me was pushed hard, and the legs of the chair rubbed against the smooth, reflective floor, making a harsh sound.
There was silence for a few seconds.
Lu Zhi and Wang Zilue, who were following the movements, looked at each other quietly. Following their gaze, they saw a person slowly walking into the restaurant door.
The man's neatly groomed black hair was pushed back, and his smiling eyes and raised lips made him look approachable.
He was wearing a suit and leather jacket, a long white coat, and his leather shoes made a clacking sound as he stepped on the ground.
It’s Dean Ruan Zhi!
Unlike what Lu Zhi had guessed, no one showed any shock when facing the dean who was over 60 years old, even though he looked too young.
"Hello, Dean!"
The chorus of greetings echoed throughout the restaurant, making Lu Zhi's ears hurt.
Ruan Zhi slowly raised his hand and waved, signaling them to continue eating, and he quickly walked up to the fat woman.
When everyone stood up and greeted them, the fat woman still couldn't suppress the urge to retch. Her throat and esophagus were burning with pain, and her eyes were red with pain.
Ignoring the filth on the table in front of him, Ruan Zhi patted the fat woman's back with concern and asked softly, "Sister Ruan, if you feel uncomfortable, come with me to get treatment first."
As he said this, he was about to step forward and support Ruan Mei.
Who would have thought that the woman who had vomited so much that her limbs were weak suddenly had great strength at this moment, and used her dirty and smelly fat hands to push away Ruan Zhi who was approaching.
Ruan Zhi was pushed and staggered, and embarrassment and sadness appeared on his handsome face. He concealed the twisted and paranoid sinisterness in his eyes and sighed helplessly.
Seeing the respected dean being treated like this, everyone's faces were twisted with resentment, and their eyes were so vicious that they wished they could tear the fat woman who insulted the dean into pieces.
Ruan Mei had finally managed to suppress her nausea, but when she saw Ruan Zhi's ugly, hypocritical face, the nausea started to surge out of her stomach again.
Of course, the final result was that the dean won. He pointed out several strong male doctors and asked them to forcibly hold down the struggling Ruan Mei. He ignored the hatred and despair in Ruan Mei's eyes and led them out of the restaurant with a smile.
The farce came to an end.
Wang Zilue and Lu Zhi clearly capture Ruan Mei’s resistance, hatred, and overwhelming despair towards Ruan Zhi.
They thought this was a new clue, and on the way back they calmly asked the doctor questions.
This was no secret in the hospital, so Dr. Fu thought for a few seconds and then told the story.
"Mei Ruan is the woman who suffers from anorexia and obesity. She was not like this before. I don't know what happened to her that made her look like this now."
