Chapter 533 - Sorry I am Late (2/2)
Looking up and down at Su Qingsang, Zhou Shaonan made sure she was not injured and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Great. Great.”
Mr. Zhou was discussing with other administrators how to resolve this issue when they heard some “medical dispute profiteers” and a bunch of journalists making a scene downstairs.
When they hurried over, the conflict was over.
Actually, many doctors present tried to come and stop them, and they did try doing that. But there was a gang of people, and they couldn’t fight with them. If the doctors were involved in a fight, the nature of the incident would be different.
So, although the doctors who in the hallway tried to pull the passers-by and journalists to other places. They failed owing to the extreme disparity in the numbers of them.
Now seeing Su Qingsang was fine, every doctor heaved a relief. Regarding this thing, every one of them knew the truth.
The public was complaining about the heartlessness of doctors. In the public’s eyes, doctors nowadays were of low medical ethics and only cared about money.
But only the doctors knew it was harder and harder to be a doctor nowadays. The patients dared to make a huge scene just because of some trivial stuff.
They were relieved at seeing the accident was finally appeased.
The doctors and nurses felt the matter was resolved, but Huo Jinyao didn’t think that way. He looked at Zhou Shaonan with obvious dissatisfaction in his eyes.
“You are Mr. Zhou, right? Is this how your hospital treated your doctors? Right, Qingsang has been here for a short time. But you should be clear about her performance at your hospital during the past two months.”
Huo Jinyao was determined to speak up for his wife.
“Sure, we have seen her performance.” Zhou Shaonan felt his back was almost sweating. “This is our fault.”
“Of course, this is your fault.” Huo Jinyao was angry at the thought that if he were a minute late, Su Qingsang would be injured.
“It is obvious that Qingsang was framed, but you didn’t help her to clear her name. You didn’t do her justice. Instead, you allowed those medical dispute profiteers to come to the hospital and make a scene. Don’t you think the problem is resolved as long as you fire Qingsang or suspend her job?”
Now, Zhou Shaonan not only sweated on his back but also sweated on his head.
He was regretful, especially when he saw Zhang Yichen by the side.
They couldn’t afford offending Tian Yu Group. Now there was another powerful person in the hospital out of nowhere.
“I am so sorry. About this thing, we will make sure to clear Doctor Su’s name. But please understand us. You know things have gone too far right now.”
Zhou Shaonan didn’t clarify, but Huo Jinyao understood his meaning.
They didn’t want to discipline Su Qingsang, but as long as Lin Gang and Li Hong were stubborn about their lie, i.e., Su Qingsang caused her stitches to open up, the issue couldn’t be entirely resolved.
The hospital could allow Su Qingsang to go back to work. But if they did that, how could the hospital persuade the public that they did the right thing? What if the patients and the patients’ families didn’t recognize their decision?
These were all problems and was certain to cause trouble to the hospital.
Even if they didn’t give Su Qingsang any discipline, how could Su Qingsang remain a doctor at the Central Hospital without the stigma removed?
After all, as a doctor, how could she practice when she was blamed for being morally degraded?
Huo Jinyao wanted to swear at the hospital. They didn’t make things any different. They believed Su Qingsang’s innocence, but they still insisted on disciplining her.
Considering the fact that Su Qingsang would stay at the Central Hospital in the future, he controlled himself.
“Mr. Zhou, I understand you. Qingsang also understands your difficulties. What all you need right now is to tell the truth to the public. How about this? Please give me three days. After three days, I am sure I will prove Su Qingsang’s innocence.”
“Thank you for all your trouble.” Zhou Shaonan was finally relaxed. With a smile on his face, he said: “Please be assured that as long as the public believes it, we will let Doctor Su come back to work.”
The underlying meaning was that even if what the public believed was not the truth, as long as the public believed it, the problem would be resolved.
“Doctor Su should better take a rest in the next three days.”
“Sure,” Huo Jinyao nodded. “I want you to know that Qingsang was wronged.”
“Of course she was.” When talking, Zhou Shaonan looked at Su Qingsang. “Doctor Su, please stay at home and take a rest. After three days, you can go back to the hospital.”
He didn’t say how the issue would be solved.
The hospital really had a headache about this matter. In the past, if pestered by the “medical dispute profiteers,” they would pay them to shut their mouth.
However, this time was different. If the hospital really paid them, they would verify these people’s righteousness. The hospital was not so reckless to do that.
“Thank you, Mr. Zhou.”
Su Qingsang was grateful to them. At least, they didn’t fire her and bluntly asked her to go home. They chose to believe her.
Zhou Shaonan wiped the sweat from his forehead, not realizing actually there was no sweat there. He knew they didn’t deal with the incident properly, but they couldn’t find a better way.
They couldn’t offend Tianyu Group, nor could they ignore the public’s views.
When they were talking, the police came. They were late to be here as the accident was finished.
The police found out what happened and made a record.
They asked Li Gang about the situation. He denied he was a “medical dispute profiteer” and insisted that he was pushed by someone from behind.
He also denied that he started a fight. “It’s impossible. Officer, how dare I to punch a doctor?”
He did literally make no move, but he asked others to hurt Su Qingsang. He pretended that it was none of his business.
“That’s good. If you have any doubts about the hospital’s treatment, you can complain in other ways. But I want you to understand violence against doctors is illegal.”
“Sure, sure. We understand. Don’t worry. We will not break the law.”
After giving the warnings, the police left.
The disorder was cleared for now. But everyone knew things were not finished yet.
They couldn’t delete posts on Weibo right now. The more posts they deleted, the more negative effect they would receive.
Su Qingsang was seated in Huo Jinyao’s car. They just said goodbye to Zhang Yichen.
Zhang Yichen asked them some questions with concern and didn’t say much after he knew what had happened.
Zhang Yichen only told Huo Jinyao that the incident was not targeting Su Qingsang. Instead, it was against Huo Jinyao.
Lin Gang and Li Hong didn’t come after Sun Huiya, the head of the department. Why did they fix their eyes on Su Qingsang, an anonymous young doctor?
Anyone with sense would felt something was wrong with it.
Huo Jinyao suspected it already. Now Zhang Yichen shared the same speculation with him.
“Uncle, thank you so much. I know you care about me. Don’t worry. I can handle this.”
Thinking of the trouble Huo Jinyao had in the company these days, noo matter it was the thing with Qiao Hong or the accident that happened to Su Qingsang, Huo Jinyao believed that it should be the same person’s scheme.
They thought he was busy with sorting out the things in the company, so they took the opportunity to set a trap for Su Qingsang. When Huo Jinyao was distracted by her accident, he would have no time to focus on Qiao Hong.
They had a brilliant plan, but it didn’t knock him over. Their scheme was doomed to be a failure because he already came up with a plan to fight back.
“As long as you know what to do.”
Zhang Yichen looked grave. Looking at Huo Jinyao, he opened his mouth to speak and then closed it.
“Since it was done, I’ll head out.”
“Okay. Thank you for what you have done today.”
Huo Jinyao really meant it. Su Qingsang also said: “Thank you, uncle.”
Zhang Yichen looked at her and nodded. He didn’t stay long and then left with his subordinates.
In the car, looking at the fleeting street view outside the window, Zhang Yichen thought to himself.
He received a new mission and wouldn’t be in Rong City for a long time.
He didn’t need to spend much time guessing why the incident happened. It was clearly targeting at Huo Jinyao, and Su Qingsang was merely implicated.
Huo Family was not complicated, but every family member harbored their own plan.
Su Qingsang must have been wronged or hurt because of her personality.
She was so beautiful and smart. If it were he who was with her, he would never upset her.
“Chief, what are you thinking about?”
The subordinate’s voice called back Zhang Yichen. His face fell, realizing he was thinking about that impossible thing.
“Chief?”
Zhang Yichen shook his head, saying nothing. He pressed his thought with all his efforts.
However, there were some things in the world that the more you pressed, the more they rebounded.
Zhang Yichen knew it, but he was in the game right now and couldn’t see things clearly.
