Chapter 674: Chapter 666: Being a Doctor Is Just Like That Chapter 674: Chapter 666: Being a Doctor Is Just Like That “Uncle Gu, it’s .”
“Is there any food?
I’m hungry.
Also, could you find a place to sleep?
I want to take a nap.”
She didn’t want to go ho, considering those two were still there, nor did she want to stay at the hospital, as it wasn’t comfortable; she was hoping to find a place without the sll of disinfectant, a place simply to sleep.
Once awakened, she would have work to keep her busy, and by the ti she would be done, it would probably be quite late.
These few hours were essential for Yuxin to sustain herself through the afternoon’s hustle.
That’s why these few hours of rest were so crucial to her—she couldn’t afford a single mistake during that ti.
...
Only after Gu Ning agreed did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
How wonderful, this is what life should be—there’s food when you’re hungry, a good place to sleep when you’re tired, and soone concerned about your daily als.
It wasn’t like her previous life, where she was worked to the bone and still had to find her own place to sleep and eat.
She persevered, day in and day out, year after year.
Until her hair prematurely whitened, until she aged before her ti.
By the ti she ca out, Gu Ning was already standing at the door waiting for her.
“Did you not sleep at all last night?”
Gu Ning smoothed her frizzy hair; her hair was flat, her eyes lifeless, even her complexion was poor, and there were many bloodshot lines in her eyes.
Clearly, she looked like soone who hadn’t slept for a long ti.
“It’s okay,” Tang Yuxin sighed faintly.
Being a doctor is just like this; I have long been aware of it.
Doctors always race against illness for every second, as one second might just an the difference between life and death.
And life and death can hinge on that critically urgent second.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to have a al,” Gu Ning extended his hand to hold Tang Yuxin’s, her fingers were a bit cold, but his were extrely warm.
Tang Yuxin didn’t feel any awkwardness; after all they’d been through, any interaction between them was nothing less than normal.
Besides, Tang Yuxin felt that she indeed needed soone to hold her at the mont, otherwise, in her dazed state, she was afraid she would walk into a wall.
And Gu Ning’s approach was truly right.
Even as he led Tang Yuxin, she nearly walked into a utility pole, a door, and a wall.
A sleepless night on top of an exhausting workload could leave a person disoriented, and the few bumps along the way might actually help bring so clarity.
Gu Ning ordered so food for Tang Yuxin, consisting of simple, easily digestible vegetables and fruits.
Tang Yuxin bit her chopsticks, looking around the canteen of the security company.
It was large; although it wasn’t her first ti seeing it, she was still amazed.
There were tables and chairs everywhere, devoid of excessive decoration, focusing primarily on practicality and neatness.
Of course, the place could accommodate quite a number of diners.
It was her first ti here; the als she had before were always brought out by Gu Ning.
Needless to say, the food here was quite delicious and of professional quality.
No matter how others felt, Tang Yuxin truly enjoyed the food at the military base.
It was hearty and substantial.
Just like conducting oneself in life, there’s no need for extravagance; steadily moving forward is all that matters.
She didn’t eat much, just a few stead buns, a few sips of soup, and a bit more of the vegetables.
As for the juice Gu Ning asked for, she didn’t drink any of it.
She knew she would sleep soundly and feared drinking too much would cause a bathroom ergency she wouldn’t wake up for, possibly to the point of wetting the bed.
What then?
It would be the end of her reputation; lost, with no return, lost into outer space.
“Finished eating?”
Seeing Yuxin praying with her head propped up, motionless for a long while, Gu Ning knew she was done.
If it wasn’t for that sliver of consciousness, she might have fallen asleep on the table right then and there.
Having been up all night, she had reached her limit.
It would be strange if she wasn’t feeling sleepy.
“Not bad,” Tang Yuxin opened her eyes, truly too tired to want to move.
Fortunately, she didn’t go ho.
Otherwise, who would care if she was hungry or tired?
“Right here,” Gu Ning opened the door, letting Tang Yuxin in.
It was his private residence, different from the other dormitories—a standard two-bedroom flat, impeccably clean, and quite spacious at seventy-odd square ters.
For this place, it was considered a luxurious setup.
Of course, who else but the boss here?
For now, Gu Ning was single, so the house was too big for just him.
But it would be too small once he got married.
It didn’t matter, though, since he had other properties.
He could live anywhere he wanted.
Seeing the bed made so cleanly and the blankets folded so neatly, Tang Yuxin knew it was Gu Ning’s bed.
Only soone with such a touch of OCD would make his bed like this.
The forr Tang Yuxin, to be honest, would never dare to lie down on it—it was just too clean, and she’d feel pressured.
But having spent more ti with Gu Ning, she knew he always liked his blankets folded in such a way, even the ones at her place.
Sotis, when she was too busy, it was Gu Ning, the dostic man, who would tidy her room.
So now, she didn’t care.
She was so tired that she collapsed onto the bed and didn’t move, no matter how much Gu Ning called her.
She didn’t hear a thing.
But she was sowhat conscious, thinking of sothing else.
Like in her previous life, after Zhang Xiaoi married Gu Ning, with her temperant, she probably wouldn’t follow him to the military base.
If she didn’t, wouldn’t they end up just like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, only able to et a few tis a year?
As she pondered, her mind gradually emptied until she knew nothing more.
Gu Ning pulled the blanket over Tang Yuxin and drew the curtains with care.
The sun was nice today, the rays already streaming into the room.
It wouldn’t be long before it beca glaring.
Of course, it was a comfortable temperature for sleeping, especially with the warm breeze that would co in, bringing waves of sleepiness, coupled with the unique clean scent of grass from this place.
“Yuxin, wake up.”
Gu Ning gently patted Tang Yuxin’s face.
It was ti to get up for work.
