Once Zhao Heng spoke, Liu Meng and Li Yang also fell silent.

After all, no one expected things to develop to this extent so suddenly.

One can only say that reality is more magical and absurd than fiction, to put it bluntly, it's a fundamental difference in people's awareness.

"Let's just do our jobs, don't overthink the rest."

Seeing the somewhat disappointed expressions on Liu Meng and Li Yang's faces, Zhao Heng comforted them.

Actually, this matter wasn't that important to him, but for Liu Meng and Li Yang, it was quite a rare opportunity to gain some visibility.

If the consultation had worked out, at least they could say they'd participated in such an important case. Now that it failed, they can't even mention it.

"Hmm."

Liu Meng and Li Yang nodded.

Although a bit disappointed, since Zhao Heng said so, the two no longer dwelled on it.

Liu Meng and Li Yang still admired Zhao Heng's calm demeanor.

Time quickly reached five thirty, and Wang Tao, who was on the night shift, arrived. After the shift change, Zhao Heng went to the operating room office.

Today, Xu Man Ni could finally leave work on time, and they were planning to relax a bit, as it had been days since Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni had a proper gathering.

This was the rumored reason why doctors don't date nurses, because if both are busy, they're like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, just like Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni. Although they worked in the same hospital, they barely saw each other recently.

Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni were somewhat better off, as they had some standing and background in the hospital, allowing them to arrange their work schedules to some extent.

If it were a young couple just starting their careers, with one on day shift and the other on night shift, they would hardly see each other at all.

Sitting in the office for a while, Zhao Heng finally saw Xu Man Ni coming in from outside.

Seeing Zhao Heng, Xu Man Ni couldn't help but say, "Did you wait long? There was a lot going on in the operating room today."

"Yeah, let's go."

Zhao Heng looked at the somewhat tired Xu Man Ni and nodded.

These days, both had been busy with work, so much so that seeing Xu Man Ni now felt a bit unfamiliar to Zhao Heng.

Even for couples, not seeing each other for a long time can feel a bit unfamiliar.

Soon, Xu Man Ni changed out of her nurse's uniform, and the two walked out of the hospital side by side.

At the hospital entrance, Xu Man Ni suddenly apologized to Zhao Heng, "I've neglected you lately because I've been busy with the head nurse election."

"Neglected?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng looked at Xu Man Ni in some confusion.

Both had been busy lately, so he never felt neglected.

It's just that they hadn't been together for several days, despite working in the same hospital, making it seem less like a relationship.

"In another month, it'll all be settled, and things won't be as busy as they are now."

Xu Man Ni sighed and said.

One must have some ambition; Xu Man Ni chose to be a nurse but couldn't be content with being an ordinary nurse forever. Otherwise, with her family background, there was no need to choose this profession.

Being a head nurse still falls under the nursing category but is essentially in the management level, which is much better in terms of status and benefits compared to a regular nurse.

"Is the election going smoothly?"

Zhao Heng asked. He had previously run for a chief assistant position and knew there were many tricks involved in elections.

In a large hospital like this, the operating room is arguably the most important department, with the best benefits and status.

The senior surgical instrument nurses in the operating room have a status comparable to the surgeons, let alone the head nurse of the operating room.

The head nurse of the operating room is no less in status and influence compared to any surgery department head in Eastern Hospital.

As the saying goes, "Managing in hand is more than being an official far away," meaning as the head nurse of the operating room, the resources you can allocate and coordinate far exceed common estimates.

"The competition is fierce, but I'm confident."

Xu Man Ni said.

Her uncle, Xu Wenqiang, after all, is the head of the operating room. Although he's expected to transfer soon, he still has a strong influence right now.

Even so, where there are people, there's a society. During the election process, various petty and underhanded activities will inevitably occur, which are quite frustrating.

"Confidence is good."

Zhao Heng nodded.

Soon, the two reached the parking lot, and looking at the somewhat tired Xu Man Ni, Zhao Heng said, "I'll drive today."

"Okay."

Xu Man Ni nodded; she indeed felt a bit tired now.

Those eligible to contest for the head nurse position are no pushovers either, with family backgrounds no lesser than Xu Man Ni's, and considerable backing. Without her uncle Xu Wenqiang as the head of the operating room, the final election result would still be uncertain!

Once in the car, Zhao Heng sat in the driver's seat and started Xu Man Ni's red sports coupe electric car. The red Tesla quickly drove out of the hospital.

"I heard the consultation with H Country ran into problems."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Xu Man Ni suddenly remembered, today was an important day for Zhao Heng too, as he had to host the consultation with H Country.

The consultation inexplicably got canceled, and Zhao Heng's mood must certainly not be good, but now she couldn't see any sign of unhappiness.
