389 Treat You to Lunch (2/2)
”Oh, this Rolls-Royce often accepts bookings around our hospital. I thought that it only operates around Yun Hua Hospital, but it seems that the Third People's Hospital of Yun Hua City is also within its coverage area.” Zuo Cidian explained to the associate hospital director, but the associate hospital director got even more confused.
”Why did you give it one hundred and one out of one hundred marks?” The associate hospital director asked.”
Zuo Cidian sighed in nostalgia and said with a smile, ”Because the champagne this Rolls-Royce provides is extremely delicious. You don't get to have it when you ride other cars. The Bentley is the most epic, as the driver often serves us rum. I think it's related to the interior design of the car or something, as the Bentley is decorated Cuban-style.
The associate hospital director wore an extremely dumbfounded expression as he settled himself in the backseat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom.
Yu Yuan, who just rushed over, entered the car.
”Welcome.” Tian Qi turned and looked at the people who just entered her car while she was clad in the DiDi uniform. She adjusted her cap and said with a smile, ”It's nice to see you guys again. Are you guys working in this hospital today?”
”Yeah, we are carrying out surgeries in the Third People's Hospital of Yun Hua City today. Outpatient consultation.” Zuo Cidian bowed slightly in a polite manner. That was the sign of respect he had for all owners of Rolls-Royce cars. He then asked with a smile, ”Ah, you're working part-time again?”
”Yup. I can't just ask for money from my parents all the time, right?” As Tian Qi spoke, she turned and glanced at Yu Yuan, who was a little out of breath, and said, ”There's water in the refrigerator. You can have some.”
Yu Yuan subconsciously opened the refrigerator door. She sank in contemplation as she stared at the mineral water packed in elegant and gorgeous bottles.
Meanwhile, Tian Qi looked at Ling Ran and asked, ”Doctor Ling, back in university, have you ever worked part time to pay for some of your university fees by yourself? Have you ever modelled or something? There are certainly a lot of companies out there who would like you as their model.”
Ling Ran thought about it for a moment and said, ”No.”
”No? Do your parents give you a lot of pocket money?”
”I didn't use to spend much when I was in university. Besides, I got scholarships all the time.”
”All the time? How often?”
”I don't really remember either. I always received random scholarships out of nowhere.”
Tian Qi nodded in understanding. ”I always face this kind of problems too. There were times when I didn't know where the extra money in my bank account came from as people would send me money anonymously without any recipient's reference. Sometimes, my credit card debts would be miraculously cleared too. But I don't like obtaining money this way. I believe in working hard.”
Ling Ran nodded slightly in agreement.
”I'm going to start driving.” Tian Qi turned to the front and started the engine. She looked out of practice as she stepped on the accelerator and drove toward their destination.
Soon, the signboard for the Shao family's restaurant entered everyone's field of vision.
”Do you want to have lunch with us?”Ling Ran invited Tian Qi as if it was the most natural thing in the world to do.
”Sure.” After Tian Qi said that, she paused for a moment and retrieved her phone from the phone holder on the dashboard. She said with a smile, ”Wait for a moment while I indicate that we have arrived at our destination and… exit the driver app.”
After Tian Qi exited the car with Ling Ran and the others, someone naturally entered the car and drove it away.
Ling Ran's attention was already focused on Shao family's restaurant.
Even though it was only noon, Shao family's restaurant was filled with people as usual. Zuo Cidian wanted to utilize his connection with Boss Shao. He went forward and asked one of the employees, ”Hello, is Boss Shao here? We are from the Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital.”
”Are you here to pick up our boss…? But that can't be it, our boss went to stock up today.” The staff member was dumbfounded.
Zuo Cidian froze for a moment as well. He then said, ”We're here to have lunch.”
”Oh, you should have told me that earlier. You gave me a scare.” The staff member turned and glanced at Zuo Cidian, but could not recognize him. But when his gaze fell upon Ling Ran, he could not help but slap his head and said, ”Doctor Ling, you're here. Please wait for a moment while I get you guys a table.”
