Bai Xiao returned to the department, just as Li Xiangqian was bidding farewell to a patient. Seeing her in a daze, he said, "What's wrong with you? Did Director Jin's deep bow frighten you? That's hardly likely, you're the renowned Doctor Bai, after all."
He still didn't know the news about Bai Xiao's departure.
"Director Jin invited everyone to dinner at his home tonight."
"What? Director Jin is known to be a miser, and he's actually inviting us over for dinner? That doesn't sound right, it should be to thank you! He should be inviting you alone for dinner! Why the hell are me and Wang Zhiwen being dragged into this?" Li Xiangqian was open-minded and thought even more broadly.
It's not that he lacked ambition, but he wasn't overly career-driven, and because of that, he was less prone to jealousy and comparison, making him more simple and pure at heart.
It wasn't clear whether this side of Li Xiangqian was good or bad.
