Unity hospital - Reception desk
The receptionist watched as two young women walked towards her. They were bother well dressed and had flawless makeup and immaculately styled hair. Both women had an air of arrogance about them like everyone else was beneath them.
The receptionist smiled politely: ”Hello, welcome to Unity hospital. How may I help you?”
Li Yu Yan spoke in a sickly sweet voice: ”We're here to see my little sister Dr. Li Xiuying. Could you tell her we're here please? ”
Receptionist: ”Is Dr. Li aware that you are coming to visit?”
Li Na: ”Is it your place to ask us anything? Just call Xiuying and tell her we're here.”
The receptionist kept her professional smile in place but was unhappy at having been spoken to in a rude manner
Receptionist: ”May I take your names please?”
Li Na felt annoyed: ”We're the Li family. Do you want to check our ID cards as well? Maybe you want our passports and birth certificates as well?” Li Na's anger was already bubbling inside her since seeing Li Xiuying the other day. She became more enraged every time she thought about the humiliation she had suffered due to Li Xiuying.
She couldn't wait to payback Li Xiuying for what she had experienced. That's why being questioned and impeded by this worker ant was fueling the flames of her anger.
The receptionist dialed the extension number for Jiang Huan.
After a few rings Jiang Huan picked up: ”Hello, Jiang Huan Dr. Li Xiuying's PA speaking.”
The receptionist: ”Hello, I'm calling from reception. I have two women here with me asking to see Dr. Li. They state that they are members of the Li family.” The receptionist doubted that they were Dr. Li's family members they didn't even have Dr. Li's number.
Jiang Huan: ”I believe that Dr. Li is currently in theater. I will call her and let her know of the arrival of her family. Could you please ask them to wait?”
The receptionist: ”Okay. I'll let them know.” She turned back to the Li family.
Receptionist: ”Dr. Li may still be in the operating theater. Her PA is going to get back to me after contacting Dr. Li. Could you please wait?”
Just as she finished relaying Jiang Huan's message the phone rang.
The receptionist: ”Hello Unity hospital, main reception desk.”
Jiang Huan: ”Hello. It's Jiang Huan. I've just spoken to Dr. Li. Someone will arrive at the reception shortly to escort the Li family members to conference room A.”
The receptionist ended the call. She decided to address Li Yu Yan instead of the rude Li Na. Receptionist: ”Someone will be down shortly to escort you to conference room A.”
Li Na: ”At least that slut managed to find some self awareness.”
The receptionist's eyebrows shot up when she heard Li Na's comment.
Li Na only intended for Li Yu Yan to hear her words but she had spoken louder than she thought.
Li Yu Yan noticed that the receptionist's all had their ears perked up and were listening to their conversation attentively.
Li Yu Yan spoke gently: ”Na, you shouldn't speak about little sister in such a way. I'm sure little sister wasn't herself the other day and didn't mean to treat you badly. We're all sisters and we should try to get along.”
Li Na pouted: ”JieJie, you're always defending Xiuying even though she doesn't deserve it. She doesn't even appreciate everything you done for her.”
