The young man from Beidu walked ahead of the three of them and asked the duty nurse first, "I'm looking for Dr. Tao."
"Dr. Tao has gone to a meeting and hasn't returned yet," the nurse called out toward the doctor's office, "Dr. He, someone is looking for Dr. Tao."
He Guangyou and Qiu Ruiyun appeared one after the other at the office door. Upon seeing the young man from Beidu, their faces lit up with enthusiasm as they greeted, "Xiao Song, when did you arrive? We thought you'd come tomorrow morning."
"I had some time this afternoon, and I called Dr. Tao to say I'd come over."
"Dr. Tao isn't here, but he did mention you might come," He Guangyou remembered Tao Zhijie's instruction and turned to Qiu Ruiyun to delegate, "Take Xiao Song around our department and wait for Teacher Tao. He's going to work in our department the week after next."
