Monday.
Ling Ran brought his research paper and went to Yun Hua Hospital in high spirits.
The hospital roused at five in the morning. Dozens of trolleys with breakfasts placed on them occupied the pedestrian sidewalks in the perimeter of Yun Hua Hospital. They headed to the parking lot. The guards had already started collecting fees. The scalpers, who were the most energetic bunch early in the morning, began selling consultation numbers for famous specialists, regardless of whether those specialists were chief physicians or associate chief physicians. The prices of these numbers differed based on how famous the specialists were, and the world was fair in this manner. It was so fair that sometimes, the doctors would use these prices to tease each other.
