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."
Jin Se took the initiative to say more, showing that she wasn't impatient at all. She even somewhat liked this fat woman.
"Milk."
The landlady brought out the milk, with the exception of the family, who took it when they passed by the landlady's house. Their family was different, the landlady always brought the milk to them, and sometimes she even came to visit them herself.
"Ah, alright." Jin Se had a lot of things in his hands, and was about to distribute them evenly so that he could grab more milk. The landlady enthusiastically placed the milk into a bag and hung it on Jin Se's finger.
"Working hard all day?"
Just like his mother's greeting, Jin Se's eyes suddenly became hot, and he almost cried out, but he still nodded with all his might, "Not bad."
"Your sister hasn't come back yet, so I guess she will be here soon. Girl, don't come back so late."
The landlady was worried, so she quickly went in to take care of the crying child.
As usual, Jin Se placed the things on the table. After washing his face and rinsing his mouth, he came out to find that Lin Ting had already turned on the radio, and was listening to the contents of the broadcast.
About it being about the government and the war, Jin Se rubbed his head and listened for a while. Then, feeling disgusted, he walked away, patting the sofa angrily, "It's said that the government does things for the good of the people, but why have I never seen it! "What I saw was the exact opposite. To think that even the radio was broadcasting these seductive words …"
Jin Se did not express his opinion, but Lin Ting was also a nationalistic person, so he would spout a bunch of nonsense every time.
"That's right, I need to tidy up the bed. There isn't enough space downstairs, so I'll bring the bed up."
Of course Jin Se agreed. She and Lin Ting then carried the bed up together, and after laying it down, Jin Se felt a little hungry. Today's events were very dangerous, but Jin Se did not plan to tell Lin Ting everything.
"I'll go heat up the milk."
As Jin Se was about to go downstairs, he heard Lin Ting say from behind him, "I don't need it, drink it yourself.
Jin Se nodded his head, Lin Ting's unit was not bad, in this period of chaos, the unit's welfare was always good, and from time to time, he would even add more food to it, making Jin Se somewhat envious.
"I bought two magic sticks and can only eat congee tomorrow." Lin Ting was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling blankly.
Jin Se placed the milk in the cup and explained, "There is nothing else."
Then, he showed the cream cake in the bag to Lin Ting, "This is a gift from the shop owner."
"Take it and eat it." Lin Ting sat up, staring straight at the cream cake. It was not that she did not know what to do, but this kind of thing was foreign to her.
"Alright, I'm afraid it will break tomorrow."
The bread was very soft, and Jin Se was really grateful to the kind-hearted Frenchman.
"The owner of this bakery is really..." And I've never seen him give me one. " Lin Ting ate two mouthfuls and ridiculed them.
Maybe it is only for today, aren't you eating? "Why should I care about that?" "Jinsi reprimanded him.
Lin Ting shrugged and lamented, "If only other foreigners could be like the French in this bakery."
The bread was very small, and the two of them could finish it in two gulps. Jin Se was very satisfied, and when she slept, she started to let her thoughts run wild, that letter was always under her head, she thought, what should she say then? Or what would it be like? Could something have happened?
Just like this, Jin Se fell into a deep sleep, and dreamed about many many things. She felt that her heart was tired from dreaming, but she was still unable to shake off the struggle. When she woke up in the morning, her forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat.
"Hey, Jin Se?"
