When Ling Ran came out of the operating theater, the red scrolling LED signs at the front door, corridor, Outpatient Department, and waiting rooms were replaced with the same sentence. [We warmly celebrate Liu Weichen winning the track and field competition in the IAAF World Games' 60-meter dash and breaking his personal record after receiving an Achilles tendon repair in our center.]
Ling Ran stood at the door and stared at the sign before he finished reading the whole sentence. It made him so uncomfortable that his body felt itchy.
The red words scrolled so slowly that they looked like they were designed to help elementary school children learn new words.
"Congratulations, Doctor Ling."
"Doctor Ling."
"Doctor Ling, remember to come back after you earn big."
