At nearly 7:00 on Sunday morning, Yan Feifan quickly ate his breakfast and hurried to the Affiliated Hospital's library, accompanied by Duan Yu.
He had thought he was more than early enough.
After all, the hospital library didn't open as early as a university library; its doors wouldn't open until eight o'clock.
But to his surprise, as soon as he rounded an inpatient building, he saw a long line of over a hundred people snaking back and forth in the shade in front of the library.
The sight made his heart turn to ice.
For the first year or two after graduating from medical school and starting his official work at the Affiliated Hospital, Yan Feifan was so busy he worked from before sunrise until after sunset every day.
On the rare occasion he had time off, he would be so exhausted that he'd just hole up at home in Happiness Garden. He never had the spare time to come study at the Affiliated Hospital's library.
