Love, Expired

Chapter 9: Meet Jia Lin in the hospital

Views:

It's July, and Zhou Hao also ushered in the first internship in his life, which is in the school's affiliated hospital. He studied endocrinology and was assigned to a diabetes specialist during his internship.

The daily work is to measure the blood sugar of the patients after three meals, and follow the teacher to make ward rounds and help the teacher write the medical records. It sounds simple, but it is complicated and tiring to do. There is also a night shift every five days.

Since the last time I yelled at Jiang Yuqian on the phone, there has been no contact between them for more than a month. The two had a tacit understanding with each other suddenly, and they didn't bother to look for each other. However, the form is the same, but the content is quite different.

Zhou Hao was out of anger, what about Jiang Yuqian? He wished that Zhou Hao would disappear from now on and get far away.

Those who came to practice together were all about the same age. Those people suddenly became very familiar with each other at some point, and occasionally they would have private dinners together. Zhou Hao has always been a loner, and he doesn't like to communicate with others. Among the same batch of interns who came in, he was probably the only one who got the order.

Does he know what those people say about him behind his back? Said that he is fake and lofty, and loves to pretend to be b.

Noon.

"Zhou Hao!" Someone called him from behind.

Zhou Hao turned around, only to realize that it was Zou Kai who was walking towards him in a hurry. Zou Kai and him are in the same school and major, and the two practiced together, which is considered to be a predestined relationship.

"Go to the cafeteria? Let's go together."

"Okay." Zhou Hao turned around and walked forward softly.

The two went to the hospital cafeteria to grab a meal, and then sat down in an empty seat.

Zhou Hao was not used to the sudden closeness of others, so he kept his face stern and didn't speak the whole time, just lowered his head and picked the rice grains in the bowl. Fortunately, this classmate of his is the kind who can find something to talk to, and will tell you something when he has nothing to say. For this meal, it was all up to Zou Kai to leave it here by himself, talking about things, and Zhou Hao only responded occasionally.

"What are your plans after graduation? Do you want to continue your PhD?" Zou Kai asked.

"Just work."

"I thought you would continue studying." Zou Kai rolled his eyes, "I heard that our school recruits its own doctorate, but there is only one place for each year."

"That's good." Zhou Hao only echoed superficially.

"You don't want to fight for it? Be a lecturer for a few years, maybe you will be lucky in a few years, and you can be rated as an associate professor."

Hearing this, Zhou Hao has already heard some tricks, and this person is just going around to talk about himself. Zou Kai is a person. Although Zhou Hao doesn’t know him well, he also knows his usual behavior. He will come to the teacher to do things. He has a strong purpose in what he does, and he studies hard.

In the past five years, the big and small exams have always been among the best. If this person has any resentment, it is probably that he will always be one rank lower than himself, and will always be the second.

Zhou Hao can see many things in detail, which is a talent honed since he was a child.

"I don't have such an idea, and the academic circle is not easy to mix in. You can do your best."

"I just said it casually, and I didn't have that plan." Zou Kai's tense expression was obviously relieved, "Eat, eat."

When returning home after dinner, Zhou Hao bumped into Jia Lin at the entrance of the elevator in the inpatient department. The man happened to be walking out, so he bumped into him face to face.

"Zhou Hao." Jia Lin called out.

Zhou Hao responded indifferently, "It's a coincidence."

"Hey, the old man is in the hospital, and my parents are not in the country. I've been waiting for you these days."

"Oh, then you can continue to work."

Jia Lin glanced at Zou Kai who was beside Zhou Hao, and then asked tentatively, "You're doing an internship, it's lunch break, let's chat?"

Zhou Hao didn't shirk it, instead of saying some polite words to Zou Kai, he might as well stay with Jia Lin for a while. In fact, among Jiang Yuqian's small group of four, Jia Lin was the least malicious towards him. This person is a bit like me, he doesn't care about anything, so naturally he won't deliberately abuse him with harsh words.

"Okay." Zhou Hao turned to Zou Kai, "Go upstairs first."

The westernmost part of the hospital is a place for viewing, such as arch bridges, flowing water, gazebos, and flowers and trees. It is noon now, the sky is so hot that people seem to be floating in boiling water. It also happened to be lunch break, and there was not a single patient in the garden. The two found a shady place and sat on a wooden chair under a big tree.

"Long time no see you."

Zhou Hao smiled slightly, "Not long ago, didn't I just meet at the bar last month."

Jia Lin also smiled in agreement, but the smile was always a little awkward, thinking to himself: This person is really full of thorns, and his gentle and polite words can be misinterpreted as sarcasm, and then he will take the opportunity to choke you.

"That's right. Speaking of the bar, I haven't seen Yuqian for a long time."

Zhou Hao didn't like to go around in circles, so he asked straight to the point, "What do you want from me?"

"It's nothing, I just met an acquaintance after a long time, and chatted casually." Jia Lin weighed the expressions of the people beside him, and asked pretendingly, "You really don't know what Yuqian has been up to lately?"

"What is he up to?"

This person seemed to really not know, Jia Lin put away his scrutiny and shook his head, "I don't know either."

"If nothing happens, I'll go back."

Zhou Hao got up and was about to leave, but Jia Linmo finally stopped him, "Well, I heard from Shichu and the two of them that Yuqian went to Europe to play. It seems that he didn't go alone."

"Who is that with?" Zhou Hao shrugged pretending to be indifferent, "Cheng Zixu?"

Jia Lin didn't continue talking.

"Have a good time with him. I'm going."

July has passed, and entering August, the heat is still unbearable. Zhou Hao's life is becoming more and more regular, always home and hospital, two points and one line. During all the breaks, I either read books at home or played games. By the way, I recently applied for a fitness card, and I still go to exercise in my free time.

Most nights, he still suffers from insomnia, but the situation is not too bad. Although he is sleepy during the day, it does not affect his work.

In mid-August, Yan Ming called him, and the boy told him excitedly that the head teacher of their high school had a second child; There was a girl who had a crush on her in high school, met Yan Ming yesterday, and asked Yan Ming for news about him...

These are all very good things. In the end, Zhou Hao asked Yan Ming again—"What is it like now?"

Yan Ming still asked in puzzlement, "Who?"

"I haven't been back for five years... I forgot what it was like."

Yan Ming immediately reacted, "It's good, the railway has just been connected to our house, isn't there a hemp spinning factory in front of our high school, it was demolished, and a big supermarket was built, and the area around your house is almost demolished. In a few years, your house can also be demolished, and you will soon become the second generation of demolition. I will go back to school next week, and my mother boiled some hot sauce, let me bring it to you to taste. "

Zhou Hao: "How is Auntie's business now?"

Yan Ming: "A while ago when we created a civilized city, all the small stalls on the street were cleared. My mother thought that she couldn't make much money, so she went to the restaurant to wash dishes, and she won't sell finger cakes in the future."

Not long after, Yan Ming returned to school, bringing Zhou Hao a lot of specialties from his hometown in big and small bags, as well as a few cans of his mother's boiled chili sauce. The two talked and laughed, and went to the restaurant to have a rub.

Yan Ming kept asking Zhou Hao if he met Mr. Jiang during the summer vacation. Zhou Hao deliberately teased him, saying that not only did he meet, but also Mr. Jiang was walking with a woman cuddling.

"real?"

"It's absolutely true." Zhou Hao said seriously, "Why don't you bring him a few cans of hot sauce? Give him a taste of the mother-in-law's cooking?"

"Fuck you!" Yan Ming scolded and asked again, "What does that girl look like?"

"Just kidding, how can there be any girl, I spent the whole summer vacation in the hospital, and you didn't see your teacher Jiang at all."

Only now did Yan Ming's complexion turn better, the secretly hidden joy was too obvious. Zhou Hao suddenly became a little envious of his friend. If he didn't try, he would never fail. Isn't it better to keep a fantasy

At least it's not like he is now, torturing others and torturing himself, not gaining any benefit, but becoming a downright bad person.
