There were still colleagues around, so Lu Jing held back from saying much.
Although the issue was basically resolved, he decided to avoid any trouble until the very end.
Who knew if there would still be surprises?
The director simply wanted to make sure everything was truly okay; once that was confirmed, he didn’t pursue anything further.
This place was hardly suitable for talking.
"Alright, if everything’s fine, go back to work and keep it up!" New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel✶fire.net
With a wave of his hand, the director had everyone disperse to their tasks.
Just as Lu Jing reached his office, the nurses at the station outside were calling for him.
"Dr. Lu, your takeout."
Lu Jing, putting on his white coat, headed out.
At the nurses’ station, sure enough, there were two large bags of takeout.
Checking the name on them, there was no need to guess; it was clear who had ordered it.
The delivery was indeed timely.
Had it been just five minutes earlier, Lu Jingren wouldn’t have been back yet.
Moreover, with such quantity, it was obviously intended for all the staff on duty in the department tonight.
Understanding the man’s intent, Lu Jing couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile before softly saying to the Nurse Director and a few Little Nurses:
"Come to the office for some food, it should be quiet now, right?"
Indeed, it wasn’t very busy; there were fewer emergency cases tonight.
The Little Nurses were, of course, delighted; they had had dinner just after five and were really hungry after a few hours.
"You’re welcome, come on over."
Of course, the nurses’ station couldn’t really be left empty; they kept one person there and planned to rotate later.
The doctor on duty in the office tonight happened to be an old acquaintance—Dr. Yu.
As they were quite familiar, there was no holding back or being polite.
"Dr. Yu, come have some late-night snacks."
Being a young man, his digestion was better; he had been hungry for a while.
Hearing about the late-night snack, his spirits rose immediately.
The two large bags held seven or eight boxes.
When the boxes were opened, the entire office was instantly filled with delicious aromas.
"Wow, my favorite dry pot squid!"
There was not only dry pot squid but also marinated food, chicken feet, spicy crayfish, eight-treasure porridge, stir-fried dishes, and even old hen soup.
This person had really become much more down-to-earth. Initially, every time he ordered takeout, it would be delivered from a hotel.
Although sophisticated and tasty, everyone felt somewhat reserved.
But now these were all common dishes that everyone usually ate; naturally, everyone felt more at ease.
"Quick, quick, quick, gloves."
"Here they are, what’s the rush?"
The department wasn’t lacking in disposable gloves, right?
Lu Jing didn’t touch those dishes but filled a bowl with old hen soup and sipped slowly.
Warm soup late at night was truly enjoyable and comforting.
"Dr. Lu, do you want some chicken feet? They’re really tasty."
"No, no, you guys eat."
Those chicken feet, one could tell just by the smell that they were loaded with pickled chili—heavily spiced.
The other dishes were the same.
Probably the only exceptions were the chicken soup and the eight-treasure porridge.
And these two dishes were likely prepared specifically for someone’s wife; they were the main purpose, the rest was just added on.
Lu Jing was not too keen on the eight-treasure porridge, it was too sweet for him.
However, Dr. Yu, being a young man, seemed quite fond of sweet things and kept sipping the eight-treasure porridge.
Lu Jing had to suppress his laughter, mainly because the contrast was too amusing. After all, Dr. Yu was quite a tall guy.
Everyone ate quickly, who knew if a patient might arrive in the next second?
