Chapter 264 Shen Fengmei Suddenly Awakens
An Xiaoyue dodged to the other side of the chair, easily avoiding Wang Zan's hand.
"Dean Wang, at this critical juncture, if I were to get hurt or injured, do you think things would turn out the way you want?"
An Xiaoyue was facing away from the sunlight, making it impossible to see the expression on her face.
Wang Zan gritted his teeth and cursed, "An Xiaoyue, you're a jinx! I shouldn't have agreed to Leng Yushan's proposal in the first place!"
Wang Zan's eyes were bloodshot; he wished he could tear An Xiaoyue to pieces and break her bones.
But he couldn't; all he could do now was curse and vent his frustration.
"I am not the one facing great calamity, nor am I the harbinger of disaster."
An Xiaoyue poked Wang Zan's chest with her index finger. She was already a head taller than Wang Zan, forcing Wang Zan, who dared not lay a hand on her, to retreat step by step.
"As a hospital director and a doctor, ask yourself honestly, have you lived up to your conscience? If you have, why are you in this predicament today? And why are you afraid of the court and the health bureau?"
"If you are upright, you will naturally not have to worry about your shadow being crooked."
Wang Zan was pushed back to stand by the wall by An Xiaoyue, his guilt accumulating with each of her questions...
Wang Zan couldn't help but ask himself, "Am I truly without guilt? Does my conscience bother me?"
He has been in a high position for too long, and has done as he pleased for too long, without ever looking back at the path he came from.
Shen Fengmei never expected that An Xiaoyue's few simple words would make Wang Zan and Director Ma feel so ashamed.
Faith and sentiment are utterly useless!
She curled her lip in disgust, thinking, "She's getting more and more easily frightened as she gets older!"
Shen Fengmei had no choice but to do it herself. "An Xiaoyue, what do you want in order for you to let us go?"
An Xiaoyue shook her head; Shen Fengmei still hadn't figured out the situation.
Shen Fengmei was born early; if she had been a few years later, given her emotional intelligence, stubbornness, and mental fortitude, she would never have been able to work here.
Of course, it's also possible that she was very talented in the past, but after being in the system for too long and having a contract, she became a jaded old hand.
An Xiaoyue smiled, her eyes crinkling as she looked at Shen Fengmei.
“You’ve got it wrong. It’s not that I’m letting you off the hook. The people suing you are Grandma Chu’s family members. Their point of contention is that the treatment was not timely, which delayed the patient’s condition.”
"You're the attending physician, and I'm an intern. When Director Ma appeared in the emergency room, I was the one who went to find her. What does the delay in the family's air ambulance service have to do with those two? Instead of letting us off the hook, why don't you think about whether you're one of those 'we'?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Fengmei staggered back and slumped heavily back into her chair.
Having been a doctor for so many years, this was the first time she had ever interacted with court staff, and she had absolutely no experience.
She felt inexplicably nervous and scared when they questioned her.
She herself didn't know how she ended up completing all the conversations.
She doesn't even remember what she said.
Now that An Xiaoyue said this, she realized that it meant she was the first defendant and should bear most of the responsibility.
As a senior doctor, Director Ma only has a duty to guide patients who are capable of practicing medicine independently; the patients' conditions are not directly related to Director Ma.
Or rather, because she didn't report it to Director Ma, Director Ma could get away with it completely by simply insisting that he knew nothing about it.
"How could this be?"
How can it all be her fault? What did she do wrong? Wasn't she always like this?
Shen Fengmei was in a state of utter confusion. What should she do now?
The leaders are trying to get her to take the blame, why doesn't she...
Shen Fengmei's panicked eyes suddenly lit up, and she set her sights on An Xiaoyue.
How could An Xiaoyue not see through Shen Fengmei's little scheme?
She smiled gently, with utmost tenderness, "You are welcome to give it a try."
That smile sent a chill down Shen Fengmei's spine.
Those eyes made Shen Fengmei feel as if a mountain was pressing down on her head, and she dared not breathe.
Director Ma and Dean Wang were simply going through the motions to understand the situation and provide a clear explanation to the outside world.
An Xiaoyue saw through their thoughts, and the two of them were afraid that if they said too much, they would make a mistake and Shen Fengmei would cause even more trouble, so they simply kept their mouths shut.
The people in the room watched helplessly as An Xiaoyue left.
An Xiaoyue went outside, then remembered the video on the internet. She poked her head out from the doorway, winked playfully, and said to Shen Fengmei:
"If you've given your consent to any videos online, you'd better take some action to remove them."
Wang Zan narrowed his eyes, his gaze dangerous. "Dr. Shen, what video?"
"Regarding the video taken by the patient, it was a misunderstanding on the patient's own part, and it has nothing to do with me."
Shen Fengmei completely absolved her of any responsibility, since there was no patient to confront her about it anyway.
Wang Zan: "So, you're the victim here?"
"Yes." How can she not be a victim? If An Xiaoyue hadn't said that before leaving, would Dean Wang have looked at her like she was about to kill someone?
"Let me see what kind of video it is?"
As Wang Zan spoke, he handed his phone to Shen Fengmei, his attitude firm.
In this day and age, with the internet so developed, he doesn't want the hospital to be thrust into the eye of the storm of public opinion.
One lie leads to countless more, and Shen Fengmei is now in a difficult situation.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and show the video to Dean Wang online.
"Oh, Dr. Shen has shown his face. The patient has clearly violated your portrait rights. Let's sue the patient too. Maybe if you handle this well, An Xiaoyue will be in a good mood and immediately plead with the Chu family for you. Then you won't have to face a lawsuit."
Wang Zan was envisioning a bright future, completely ignoring Shen Fengmei's increasingly bitter face.
Shen Fengmei could tell, of course, that Dean Wang was being sarcastic and trying to force her to admit the truth.
"Dean, it was me. I was the one who revealed during our conversation that it was okay to post it online. I gave the patient my permission to post it. I know I was wrong."
Shen Fengmei's tears came just in time; she cried as she spoke, her attitude of admitting her mistake was truly sincere.
"No, that's well said. We'll display it on the hospital's big screen and award Dr. Shen a banner for her noble medical ethics." Wang Zan's words were like poison, each one deadly.
As the dean, if he can't handle An Xiaoyue, an intern, surely he can manage Shen Fengmei, a full-time employee?
"Dean Wang, please don't do this, I..." Shen Fengmei knelt down in front of Dean Wang, "I know I was wrong."
Wang Zan's face was grim. "If you know you're wrong, then accept the punishment properly."
"No, no." Shen Fengmei's tears flew out as she shook her head.
She doesn't want to go to jail. What will happen to her elderly parents if she goes in?
They will be laughed at by the villagers, and they will never be able to stand up straight again.
Thinking of her parents, Shen Fengmei knelt down at Director Ma's feet and kowtowed to him with a thud.
"Director Ma, please help me, please help me, I beg you, I beg you..."
Shen Fengmei kowtowed until her forehead was red, but Director Ma didn't even glance at her.
If it weren't for Shen Fengmei, she could have retired smoothly. Now she's barely able to take care of herself, so how could she possibly let Shen Fengmei go!
At this point, Shen Fengmei finally realized that there was no one she could rely on.
"Oh God, who can help me? I know I was wrong."
Amidst the pleading voices, only the indifferent faces of Wang Zan and Director Ma remained.
