Chapter 808: Dinner Party
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After reading hundreds of messages, Zheng Ren spent 20 minutes.
Xie Yiren had already booked a seat. It was said that this TRB Western restaurant was one of the filming locations for the movie ’33 Days of Heartbreak.’ The best seat was the one by the window overlooking the moat. The four seasons of the Forbidden City, the willows of spring and the snow of winter, were all in front of him.
Now that spring was in full bloom, everything was revived. Sitting outside the Donghua Gate, looking at the old streets, old alleys, red walls, and black tiles, it was a different feeling to going earlier and watching the sunset of the Forbidden City while listening to small talk.
At the end of the group chat, they were all looking forward to getting off work.
Zheng Ren looked at the time. It was 4:05. He did not have much to do, so he went straight to TRB. The morning and evening peak hours were terrifying phenomena. It was going out at 7 am and arriving half an hour earlier, yet going out at 7:10 am to be half an hour late.
Zheng Ren gradually accepted this strange thing.
Unlike Sea City, which was said to peak in the evening, the same distance would take him ten minutes more than usual.
[Everything is fine now, right? I’ll take Chang Yue, Lil Fugui, Xi Bao’er, and set off. Let’s meet in the parking lot?]
Since he was leaving, there was no need to waste time. Zheng Ren left a message in the group chat. Just as he was about to message everyone, a few messages flew up.
[Chief Zheng, how does it feel not to be a Chief Resident?]
[Is Imperial Capital very freeing? I heard that there’s no need for emergency treatment. They operate in the morning every day and there’s nothing much to do in the afternoon. Chief Zheng, please adopt us. You must leave a place for us. After standardized residency training, we’ll go over.]
This was from the Chu sisters.
If it was possible, no one wanted to do emergency treatment.
[I’m fine. I’m leaving now. I need to go to the East City District. I need to leave early]
Xie Yiren replied.
Zheng Ren did not have time to reply to the Chu sisters. He rarely appeared in the group. This group was basically for the girls to chat.
When the group was first established, the nature of this group was to work. The girls were still reserved and could not let small talk disturb their work.
Ever since Zheng Ren, Su Yun, and the others left Sea City, this group had completely turned into a much chattier group.
Zheng Ren called the three people from the department to go to the parking lot together. The Professor had a car, and Little Oliver was an assistant and a part-time driver.
Chang Yue habitually walked to Xie Yiren’s car. Only then did she suddenly wonder when she became a bright light bulb?
However, she seemed to be a little uncomfortable today. She frowned slightly and was too lazy to walk back to the Professor’s car. She opened the back door and got into the car.
“Happy hour is over by now,” Xie Yiren started the car and said.
“Is there a special drink over there?” Zheng Ren asked curiously.
Normally, Xie Yiren was not short of money. She did not need to wait for happy hour, which was a time for special drinks, to go there.
“There are quite a lot of people at happy hour. It looks quite fun,” Little Yiren said with a smile. “Many people go on blind dates at this time.
“I like to watch people go on blind dates. The first time two people meet, they have to confirm that they will be together for decades. It looks very interesting.”
This hobby was a bit unusual.
“Is TRB’s western food delicious? My dear, do you have a habit of using knives and forks?” Zheng Ren asked casually. His words did not go through his brain at all.
In this guy’s opinion, if he was with Xie Yiren, he had to go through his brain and talk. His life would be as boring as it could be.
“TRB is a restaurant that gathers the pan-Mediterranean flavors of France, Italy, Belgium, and other places. Many western dishes are very authentic. Go and try it. Actually, I still like hotpot.
“Now that I have time, I can sit down and slowly eat slices from hotpot.” Xie Yiren drove the car, looking ahead. She answered simply and casually.
“Zheng Ren, eating hotpot with you in Sea City is simply a waste of the essence of hotpot. When a pile of things goes in, no matter what, it will get old,” Xie Yiren complained.
“It was Su Yun who put things in the hotpot.” Zheng Ren threw the blame to Su Yun who was not present without any hesitation. He did not feel any psychological burden at all. “He can’t eat spicy food. He looks forward to finishing it as soon as possible.”
What Zheng Ren said was not unreasonable. Xie Yiren recalled eating Xiao Long Kan in Sea City. It seemed to be such a process. Su Yun had complained about the importance of unified measurement.
Gradually relaxing, Zheng Ren leaned against the seat of the Volvo XC60 and felt that he was inflated.
Three to five days a surgery day, six TIPS surgeries a day, and the rest of the time to be idle. If there was no Nobel Prize behind him urging him like a whip, this kind of life would be his dream.
He just did not know how much the salary of 912 would be.
“Yiren, when will you be paid?”
“I don’t know either. I haven’t asked around. Do you have no money to spend?” Xie Yiren asked.
“I don’t not have any money to spend. I’m just asking. How much money can be paid here in a month?” Zheng Ren asked.
“According to the number of surgeries in our group and... a lot of calculation methods, Sister Yue and I have calculated once. We should be able to get around thirty to fifty thousand a month,” Xie Yiren said.
“That’s good.” Zheng Ren smiled.
After all, it would not be like Sea City, where one could live on 3,000 yuan a month.
Sea City General Hospital, especially in the emergency ward, was busy, tiring, and unprofitable. A few days ago, Zheng Ren occasionally looked at the news. When he saw that it was very noisy because of the 9 to 6 work schedule, he was surprised at first.
Later, he remembered that he could go to work at nine in the morning and rest for two hours in the middle. He could get off work at nine in the evening, and he could also rest one day a week... If the Chief Resident could live such a life, it would be a blissful life.
The Imperial Capital was more logical, and he did not have to be the Chief Resident anymore. He had finally gotten through those darkest days.
While chatting casually, Chang Yue was following the progress of the incident of the young nurse being beaten up in Sea City. She got the information from other groups and then broadcast it live to everyone.
It was neither funny nor not funny. Zheng Ren felt that this was all an internal conflict among the people and to be let be. If he thought too much, he would not feel good. He would turn into an extreme character like Su Yun.
Extreme and dark, that was not good. Zheng Ren thought so.
Thinking of Su Yun, he realized that this guy had received a notice?
“Has Su Yun left?” Zheng Ren asked.
“He has already arrived,” Chang Yue said from the back row. “He is closer to TRB. He said that he is looking at the city walls of the Forbidden City and enjoying the afternoon sun.”
This guy...
Although he came out early and was busy the whole afternoon, he still caught up with the first half of the evening rush.
It was almost six o’clock when he arrived at TRB.
Zheng Ren felt a little helpless. He thought that if he had money, he had to buy a house near 912... and rent another house.
But even if he rented a house, he did not seem to be able to afford it now. This was indeed a bit embarrassing. It was such a waste to spend a few hours a day on the road to work.
Fortunately, the library provided by the System can used to kill time.
