C91 (1/2)

Although Jin Se was in the cubicle, he heard their conversation. Hearing that there was a supervisor, Jin Se was curious, he had never heard the Doctor Gao mention this before.

”What is it? What overseer? ”

Doctor Gao came back to reality and replied, ”Oh, so you knew?”

”It was the provincial hospital's president who asked me to perform a small operation on him. That was asthma, and because he was the governor, he had to treat it with care. However, I rejected his request.”

As Doctor Gao recalled this, he continued to mock himself, ”I only wanted to ask for some medical supplies in the beginning, but the dean refused to give them to me. That's why I was so angry … Actually, sometimes it's reasonable to say that doctors put saving the dying and helping the injured first … ”

This matter was contradictory, and Jin Se understood the feeling he had, so he comforted, ”There will be others who will go to the surgery sooner or later, you can rest assured.”

”You're right.” Doctor Gao suddenly felt at ease as a huge weight dropped from his heart.

Although the Doctor Gao couldn't leave today, he was determined to leave. Jin Se knew that he would probably have to leave tomorrow as well and he wouldn't be able to stay any longer. Furthermore, Jin Se also had his own matters to attend to.

At night, the patients finally fell asleep one by one. When Jin Se walked to the People's Road, he specially went to look around the bakery. Jin Se was lucky, the bakery was just a bit off from closing time.

”Oh, please let me buy some bread.”

The owner was a Frenchman with a bow tie, he was always meticulous. Regarding Jin Se's request, the French owner did not reject, and instead politely invited Jin Se in.

People's Road used to be the most bustling place, but gradually it became a place to rent. There weren't many people here, so it was considered a ”high-class” place. Poor people rarely came here to buy things, but this bakery had always been a cheap and affordable place with good business.

The French boss awkwardly greeted Jin Se in Chinese, ”Did you just get off work?”

”Yes, I came to buy some bread for breakfast. Sorry to have delayed your work.” Jin Se was extremely sorry.

”No problem, I'm happy to serve you.” The French boss's words were quite authentic, so he must have said too much.

There wasn't much bread on the shelves, just a bag of sliced bread and two magic sticks.

Jin Se was never used to eating such things. She felt that only something hot would be able to soften a hard stick. But there was nothing she could do, she just swept away all the remaining food.

”I came too late, it's almost sold.” The boss of the bakery seemed to be extremely sorry. He was feeling a little uneasy now, but Jin Se didn't think that this matter had anything to do with him.

”For you.”

Just as Jin Se was about to pay with his wallet, the French owner took out a small cake from behind him.

Jin Se could not accept it, and waved his hand, ”No need, you can keep it.”

”It's too late, send me the last guest.” The French boss looked reluctant to be rejected.

”I'll pay.” Jin Se pointed to his wallet, but the owner still shook his head. Finally, Jin Se could only helplessly thank him again and again and again before leaving the bakery.

The lights in the bakery were turned off as well. Jin Se quickened his footsteps, and when he reached the building, he realised that the lights on the house owner's wife were still on.

”Sister, you're back?”

Jin Se nodded his head as the landlady greeted him warmly, just like before.

”Buy bread?”

The landlady's voice was soft and gentle, making people feel warm listening to her. Jin Se replied, ”Yes, it's almost closed when I go.”
