After getting off on the fourth floor, she asked Wang Lulu, who was waiting there, "Do you know whose office is the other one on the fifth floor?"
Wang Lulu was stunned; she really didn’t know about such matters.
But since she hadn’t heard anyone discuss it much, it probably wasn’t of anyone important. Follow current novᴇls on novel⦿fire.net
Wang Lulu, rather indifferently, said, "Isn’t it probably the office of Professor Han’s students?"
It wasn’t impossible.
After all, Han Qingxuan’s status was high not only at the Kyoto City Hospital but also in all of Huaxia, second only to the members of the Expert Group; his students’ status naturally wouldn’t be low.
Having an independent office next to his was quite normal.
The girl just now was likely one of Professor Han’s students too.
Xia Jinjin didn’t have much regard for Professor Han’s students, so she said nothing more and focused on her own affairs.
Zhang Tao knocked three times on the door before entering the office.
Upon entering, he saw Su Niannian painfully rewriting the proposal, the desk still cluttered with drafts.
Next to Su Niannian’s desk, there was an added small table; it was Zhang Tao’s, similarly piled with drafts.
Zhang Tao glanced at Su Niannian and, unable to bear it, turned his gaze away. He stepped forward, reported the patient’s condition to Chi Gui, and shared her insights on the patient’s health.
Chi Gui listened quietly, occasionally correcting a statement or two.
No one mentioned anything about Xia Jinjin.
In the whole hospital, only their office, only the three of them, lacked any interest in Xia Jinjin.
Chi Gui had no reason to be interested.
For Su Niannian and Zhang Tao, it was a mental state of "having seen a lion, who would still be interested in a lion dog?"
Busy until noon, the three of them, Chi Gui, went to have lunch together; they had two surgeries waiting for them in the afternoon.
Xia Jinjin and Wang Lulu also went to the cafeteria for lunch.
Xia Jinjin was a prominent figure who, along with the special treatment of having two assistants upon arrival, attracted people’s attention wherever she went.
Thus, when Chi Gui and the others, carrying their trays, walked to a corner and sat down, the entrance of the cafeteria suddenly erupted into noisy chatter.
Chi Gui didn’t even lift an eyelid, placed his tray on the table, and took a seat.
Su Niannian and Zhang Tao didn’t possess such composure and couldn’t help turning their heads to look, just to see Xia Jinjin accompanied by Wang Lulu walking in.
Xia Jinjin carried a cold expression, exuding an aura that kept people at a great distance, while Wang Lulu held her head high, her face filled with pride.
Upon entering, Xia Jinjin sat straight down in an empty seat, while Wang Lulu, eagerly went to get their meals.
Xia Jinjin liked eating rice, so Wang Lulu headed to the rice window, which happened to be right next to the window where Zhang Tao and the others were.
Other doctors and nurses dared not provoke Xia Jinjin, so they all crowded around Wang Lulu, gossiping and asking questions.
This was the first time Wang Lulu received such star-like treatment; her heart swelled with pride and delight, nearly overflowing as she pretentiously answered everyone’s inquiries.
Especially when the cafeteria aunt found out it was Xia Jinjin’s meal and specially scooped a couple more spoonfuls, Wang Lulu was nearly ecstatic!
The feeling of being complimented by everyone was truly exhilarating!
Wang Lulu thought excitedly, then turned her head and saw Zhang Tao.
Zhang Tao, too, was carrying a plate of rice and vegetables, but the portion was noticeably smaller than what she had.
Moreover, their table was deserted and quiet, with hardly anyone around.
Wang Lulu scoffed coldly, then carried her rice away.
After finishing the meal, Xia Jinjin had other matters to attend to and left first.
Wang Lulu waited a while, then, as Zhang Tao was preparing to leave and passed by her, she smiled and said, "Zhang Tao, if you had listened to my advice back then, today you could have been enjoying the limelight with Senior Sister Xia too."
