Stuck in you

"Are you free tonight, Jack?" Rachel asked.

"Yes, I'm free tonight," Jack said as he stood up from his seat.

Everyone inside the meeting room followed him with their gaze until he went out of the door.

Then they looked at each other in confusion. Their boss had just left. Who would continue presiding the meeting?

The supervisor, who was reporting, asked Austin, "Are we going to wait for Mr. Fu?"

Austin had a feeling that the person who called Jack was Rachel.

He tidied up the documents on the table, cleared his throat, and announced, "Today's meeting is over. For those who haven't presented their report yet, just send the documents to me so I can forward them to Mr. Fu."

At this time, Jack was in the lounge of his office, shaving the stubble on his chin carefully. He was subconsciously humming a tune because of excitement.

He then picked a sapphire blue suit from the wardrobe and put it on. He examined himself in the mirror and smiled, satisfied with his looks.

Austin entered the office to submit the documents of the different departments. As he opened the lounge door and saw Jack smiling in front of the mirror, he tried to hold back his laughter, and commented, "Mr. Fu, you're already very handsome."

Jack straightened up and pulled his collar.

"You didn't see anything just now," he warned.

"Yes, Mr. Fu." But when he stepped out of the office, Austin burst into laughter.

Rachel had just finished packing up her stuff and was about to leave when a nurse stopped her and said,

"Rachel, a patient doesn't want to take an injection now."

She raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was already five o'clock. Her appointment with Jack was six o'clock, so she was afraid that she would be late.

After thinking for a while, she replied, "Cara will be on duty tonight. I think she's already here, so please go and tell her about it. I have something important to deal with, and I have to leave right away."

The nurse watched Rachel's receding back and mumbled, "It's strange. According to Mindy, she is the most devoted doctor in this hospital."

Rachel arrived at the restaurant on time.

She showed the reservation code on her phone to the manager, and he led her to the table.

Since it was already dinnertime, she took the menu from the waiter and ordered a set of meals for her and Jack.

"Shall we prepare your orders now, ma'am?" the waiter asked politely.

She looked at the time. It was already six twenty.

Jack was already twenty minutes late. Maybe there was a traffic jam. After thinking for a while, she answered, "I'll just let you know when to serve them. Please give me a glass of lemonade for now."
