Lu Jiajie looked dejected as he spoke to Lu Jiaguang, "Third Uncle has been in the hospital for more than half a day and no one from his work has come to visit. Big brother, Third Uncle says he's fine, but is he really okay?"
Last year, when Third Uncle had gastroenteritis, the hospital was filled with a constant stream of visitors for the three days he was there. And now? Not a single person has shown up.
Lu Jiaguang assured him that since everyone had left, it must mean that there was nothing wrong, "Third Uncle is getting on in years, and they wanted him to retire last year, but he managed to hold his position because of his own maneuvering. Now that Ding Jing's bribery has been confirmed, Third Uncle definitely has to retire."
There's a saying: out of sight, out of mind. People from his work understand that he has to step down, and they aren't sure if Ding Jing's case will implicate him, so naturally, they dare not visit.
