Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Events that I had never remembered in the past five years, things that I thought I had forgotten long ago, now come to my mind from time to time.

Zhu Xia raised his hand and rubbed his face, pulling his chaotic thoughts back to normal.

A message popped up on her phone. It was You Feng replying to her, saying that it was no problem and he would contact her late at night if he had any news.

Zhu Xia smiled briefly.

The time difference between Hong Kong and London is 8 hours, and it is still early morning in Youfeng's place.

The madman had stayed up more nights than she had eaten, but she didn't feel like she was disturbing him at all.

Zhu Xia replied to the message and sent two words to He Lianzhou:

"arrive"

There was a knock on the door.

"Doctor Zhu." A girl with short hair and wearing a white shirt and white coat walked in.

Zhu Xia looked up.

"We have finished our studies in other departments and officially returned to the surgery department today," said Hu Qianxin.

"Yeah, okay." Zhu Xia asked casually, "Where are Zhao Ye and Li Jiayi?"

Hu Qianxin: "Dr. Su has been on leave recently, and the emergency room is short of staff, so they went over to help today."

Zhu Xia hadn't seen Su Weiwen for several days. She basically came to the hospital to have a surgery scheduled in advance, and left the hospital in a hurry after the surgery.

Zhu Xia nodded, and Hu Qianxin asked her about the patient's condition. The two chatted for half an hour. Hu Qianxin smiled and said, "I understand. Thank you, Dr. Zhu. I'll go see the patient first."

After Hu Qianxin left, Zhu Xia used a rubber band to tie her loose hair into a simple ponytail. She put on a white coat, took a pen and medical record book, and went out to the ward.

After leaving the intensive care unit, Zhu Xia walked in the corridor and moved his sore neck.

Suddenly, someone reached out from behind and pinched her shoulders. Zhu Xia turned around and found that it was She Yi.

"Head nurse." Zhu Xia said with a smile.

She Yi took a step forward, walked with her, and said, "Take care of yourself and don't get tired."

Zhu Xia said “hmm”.

"Doctor Xiao caught a cold not long ago. The director said he had a viral cold and told him not to get close to patients. Even if he did, he had to wear a mask and protective clothing to avoid infecting the elderly. He also talked to Dean Bai and asked him to give Doctor Xiao a few more days off so that he could recover and come back." She Yi even laughed at what she said, her face full of smiles, "The director just likes to talk nonsense in a serious manner."

Zhu Xia also laughed after hearing this.

"How much do you know about Dr. Su?" She Yi asked her.

Zhu Xia thought for two seconds and said, "I heard from other nurses and doctors that something happened at home."

"I was also admitted to the hospital after seeing Doctor Su. Her mother has asthma, her father is in a daze all day, and her brother works in a nightclub and is often away from home." She Yi sighed, "Not long ago, her mother had an asthma attack and was hospitalized."

Zhu Xia asked: "Why not send him to our hospital?"

"Doctor Su's mother doesn't want to." She Yi looked helpless.

Zhu Xia seemed to be thinking about something and did not ask any more questions about Su Weiwen's privacy.

She Yi looked around, moved closer, and asked quietly: "Are you leaving?"

Zhu Xia was looking down at the case report, and when he heard her words, he raised his eyelids and looked at her.

"The hospital's top management is communicating with Dean Bai about hiring a new surgeon. They said that since you are leaving, they have to prepare new personnel in advance, otherwise the patients will not be able to accept them, which will have a great impact on the hospital's reputation." She Yi said as she pulled Zhu Xia to the glass window at the end of the corridor.

Zhu Xia closed the medical record book and looked out the window. The bright moon was hanging high in the sky, illuminating the dark sky.

She Yi put her hands on the armrest and whispered, "I only know that you are going back to the mainland during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you not plan to come back? Or do you want to go back there to work in the future?"

News spreads quickly, and it’s easy to get tired on duty, so they like to talk about gossip to cheer themselves up.

The news that Zhu Xia Zhongqiu is away has basically spread.

"I'll be back after the Mid-Autumn Festival." Zhu Xia said, and She Yi was immediately delighted. Then she changed the subject and said, "But my work here should end at the end of the year."

Zhu Xia had already given Dean Bai Yuan a heads-up in advance. The dean expressed his understanding and tried to retain her, saying there was no rush and asked her to reconsider it.

"Then the nurses and doctors in our hospital will definitely lament a lot." She Yi said exaggeratedly, "You don't know, they all said that after seeing Dr. Zhu in the hospital, they immediately perked up and were able to be on call for 36 hours without any problem."

Zhu Xia's dark jade eyes were filled with smiles, and she said, "Who said that? I'll reward him by letting him accompany me on duty today."

She Yi's brows relaxed and she laughed, saying that was not possible because the hospital would be overcrowded.

"Do you have an operation tonight?" She Yi looked at her watch and it was already dinner time.

"Heart bypass surgery," Zhu Xia said. The patient had decided to have the surgery last minute in the afternoon, but it couldn't be delayed any longer, so it was scheduled tonight.

"I'm going to talk to Dr. Xiao about the patient's condition due to chest wall trauma. Please go to the cafeteria first, and we'll find you later."

"OK, see you later."

Zhu Xia and She Yi separated and walked in opposite directions along the corridor.

It was visiting hours. Zhu Xia had only taken a few steps when she ran into a patient's family coming out of the ward. The family was very grateful to the doctor and enthusiastically said a lot of words of thanks to her.

Zhu Xia stopped by the ward to check on the patient, gave a few medical instructions, and then left.

After leaving the ward, one could still hear the laughter of people crying with joy inside. Zhu Xia couldn't help but purse her lips and smiled along.

She put her hands in the pockets of her doctor's gown and walked towards the elevator in a good mood. When she passed the nurses' station, the nurse on duty suddenly called her.

"Blessings, Doctor!"

Zhu Xia stopped, turned around and walked over.

"Looking for you." The nurse on duty pointed at the middle-aged man in front of her and said with a smile, "I was just about to contact you, and here you are."

"Hello, I'm Zhu Xia. What can I do for you?" Zhu Xia looked at the middle-aged man in front of him calmly. He had clear features, a gray shirt, trousers and a well-tailored vest. He didn't look like a patient, nor did he look like a patient's family member.

The middle-aged man hurriedly handed her the dark wood pulp paper bag in his hand and said:

"Doctor Zhu, I'm here to bring you food. This is my business card."

Zhu Xia took the business card and paper bag and was about to say that he had never ordered any food and wondered if there was a mistake.

Her heart suddenly moved, and she looked at him and thanked him.

"You're welcome." The middle-aged man bowed politely. "Enjoy your meal!"

The bag was a bit heavy, so Zhu Xia put the phone in his pocket, carried it and took the elevator to the cafeteria.

She found a clean and tidy place, placed the bag on the dining table, and took out the contents, only to discover that they were two portions of delicious food.

One Cantonese dish and one Beijing dish.

There was a small card in the bag. Zhu Xia slowly opened it and, with the help of the bright light, could clearly see the words written on it.

Only four words.

eat on time.
