Zhou Juanjuan had to work overtime that evening. After finishing the tasks at hand, she found herself bored in the duty room. She told a colleague and then stepped out.
"Going to see that old classmate of yours again?" Her older colleague looked up and teased as she announced her departure, "With such dedication from you, he must be an old flame."
"Can't you avoid taking jabs at me for once? Just don't let his girlfriend hear that, or I'll be the unlucky one." Zhou Juanjuan cursed playfully and made her way toward Chen Xu's ward.
It was deep into the night, and the hospitalization department was exceptionally quiet. Most of the corridor lights had been turned off, and all the wards were dark too. With her hands in her pockets, she strolled leisurely, already accustomed to such environments.
