The so-called "do as the Romans do when you go to a place" means that when you go to a place, you will obey the local customs. It is often used to describe being at ease with the situation.
Before arriving in this city, Lin Zengxian felt that he was mentally prepared to do as the Romans do.
However, now, he still feels that his life has been impacted by an incomprehensible impact.
"Senior?"
Sitting in the unmanned self-service ramen shop, Liu Zhien raised his eyes to Lin Zengxian, who was staring at the bowl in a daze, and called out softly.
"Huh? Oh, it's okay."
Regaining the focus in his pupils, Lin Zengxian raised his head and smiled, and finally reached out and grabbed the chopsticks.
Although Feng Lu said she would pick him up and treat him and his colleagues to dinner, Lin Zengxian had no intention of waiting for his mother to come over because he was really hungry after working all night.
After taking Liu Zhien out of the hospital, Lin Zengxian was dumbfounded.
Damn it, don’t people here eat breakfast?
In the area near the hospital, you can see people drinking ice cream all over the street, but there is not a place that can be called a "breakfast shop".
Except for this shop with a sign that says "Unmanned Self-service Ramen Shop".
Lin Zengxian, who didn't understand the local language, could understand what kind of store this was, thanks to the bilingual label in Chinese and English next to the line.
Okay, if there is no one to help you, just make it yourself. Semi-finished products are also fine. Ramen is good.
The mellow soup contains a large portion of smooth, yellow noodles, with a few crispy white radish slices and sliced beef on top. Green garlic sprouts float on top of the soup, and a spoonful of spicy pepper is poured on it...
…
Bliss!
In Lin Zengxian's memory of "not adding coriander to death", this is what ramen looks like.
However, after walking into the store and watching Liu Zhien start operating, Lin Zengxian was dumbfounded again.
No, no, wait a minute, this... is this ramen?
What are you doing?
What does introduction mean?
Are you leaving it here to cheat?
This is clearly instant noodles!
"Senior, what flavor do you like, ramen?"
At that time, Liu Zhien's question completely destroyed Lin Zengxian's "ramen dream".
Well, it seems that people here call instant noodles "ramen".
Chi...chi...
Eat, eat, instant noodles are instant noodles...
Chi...chi...
I want to go back to Qingdao...
Chi...chi...
I want to eat the hand-made noodles made by my father...
Chi...chi...
"Thank you, senior, for the treat. I'm starting."
After taking a look at Lin Zengxian who was finally starting, Liu Zhien, who was sitting opposite, touched her cheeks, which were pinker than usual, with the back of her hand, and gently stirred the ramen with a fork.
For people here, especially young people, there is no concept of "eating breakfast", or drinking a cup of coffee is equivalent to having breakfast.
However, she doesn't mind having "breakfast" with her new foreign colleagues who she likes.
"I'll treat you to ramen."
However, Lin Zengxian's words were a bit wrong, at least they made Liu Zhien blush on the spot who didn't react.
Inviting the opposite sex to eat ramen is a meme that was accidentally popularized in movies. It has a similar meaning to "inviting the opposite sex to your home for a cup of coffee".
Well, senior must not know what he was talking about just now.
Gudu...
The beep on the phone eased Yoo Ji-eun's embarrassment. She unlocked the screen and saw the new message from Nan Jia-eun.
[Unnie, do you know where Dr. Lin is? I didn’t see him in the cardiothoracic surgery office.]
In the Critical Care Medicine Center, in front of the "Cui Shengjing" patient ward, after sending such a message, Nan Jiaen put the phone back into the pocket of his white coat.
This person was treated by Lin Zengxian, and Nan Jiaen and Jin Zhixun were doing rounds.
Although the official assignment within the department has not yet been announced, as the only two residents who currently do not have teachers, there is no suspense about Nam Ga-eun and Kim Ji-hoon following Lin Zengxian in the future.
Therefore, the two of them naturally have to bear corresponding responsibilities for this patient.
"The patient's current condition is what I just said. Please rest assured that the operation was very successful and the patient's condition is also very stable."
Looking at the two people in front of him who claimed to be Cui Shengjing's relatives and friends, Nan Jiaen quietly pinched the arm of Kim Ji-hoon next to him.
Are you mute? Just say a few words and let me finish them all by myself.
"Thank you, thank you. If possible, we still hope to meet the chief surgeon and thank you in person."
As a fellow countryman, a friend, and a long-time work partner, Kim Taeyeon naturally takes it seriously and hopes to thank the doctor who saved Cui Shengkyung in person.
At this time, she had taken off her mask and hat. Although she did not put on makeup, the sincere gratitude in her eyes made her look energetic.
Dulu...
The alert sounded, and Nan Jiaen took out her phone and looked at it.
[Senior and I were eating outside the hospital, what’s the matter?]
Yoo Ji-eun responded very quickly.
"Sorry, the doctor who operated on the patient is not in the hospital now, and he has no outpatient clinic today, so..."
On the surface, Nan Jiaen's smile is gentle and her tone is gentle, but in her heart, she has already begun to gnash her teeth.
Kim Ji-hoon! Are you mute?
However, Kim Ji-hoon, who was standing next to Nam Ga-eun, still did not speak.
He was in a daze.
She looks beautiful even without makeup...
Cute...
She looks better in person than in the camera...
The skin is so white...
Is this hair done for comeback...
The peripheral vision of Kim Taeyeon's eyes drifted around and around Kim Taeyeon's face. Every time she glanced at it, it passed quickly without stopping for fear of being discovered. Kim Jihoon maintained the same expression as usual, as if he was beating a drum in his heart.
.
It is quite common to like girl groups, and he is no exception.
Although his favorite idol is not Kim Taeyeon, it does not prevent him from having rich psychological activities after meeting the real person with his own eyes.
"It's okay, it's okay. Thank you for your hard work."
It contains both sincere gratitude and professional awareness as an artist. Kim Taeyeon's smile has just the right sense of intimacy and solemnity as a patient's relative. The bow with her hands clasped in front of her chest makes her more attractive in the eyes of others.
A desire to be protected that “almost lost relatives and friends”.
She couldn't see the chief surgeon today and had no choice, so she had to give up.
"Then let's go first? Come back after today's schedule is finished. I just applied for the nursing service for Shengjing, don't worry."
The manager glanced at Kim Ji-hoon, who still said nothing, gently pulled Kim Taeyeon's sleeve and said a few words in a low voice.
They are all partners who get along day and night. Even if there is no reason like Kim Taeyeon, the manager will not deal with Choi Sungkyung's matter hastily.
Moreover, Kim Taeyeon does have a lot of schedule.
According to the original arrangement, she should be doing makeup at this time.
"Okay, let's go."
Looking sideways at the ward, Kim Taeyeon pursed her lips, lightly clenched her fingertips in her palms, her brows and eyes gradually relaxed, and her heart that had been so excited finally slowly let go.
Fortunately, everything is fine, so let's go first. We don't want to keep Pei Enxi, the makeup artist, unnie waiting.
