Rest

"Doctor Ling, I brought some chestnut biscuits from home for you to try." Li Xiaoning rushed out from the ward area and took out a small paper box. 

The box was not wrapped in any fancy packaging. Instead, it was just covered with the simplest of corrugated fiberboards, and there were a few words written on it: Heart Chestnut Biscuit.

Li Xiaoning smiled and said, "I know that doctors should not accept any gifts. These are just some local food products from my hometown. There are twenty of them in a box, and it weighs two pounds. They did not cost a lot, but they taste really good."

Ling Ran did not think much of it. He accepted it and said, "Then, I will open it."

As he spoke, Ling Ran opened the gift box. 

Ling Ran knew that one of the better ways to treat the people who gave him gifts was to open the gifts on the spot. This was especially so when there was a possibility that the gift was being given to him secretly.
