Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Naive, Stupid, Childish!
"Who are these people? What does he have to do with the new doctor's induction? Is he head of the school's HR department?"
Kou Jing inwardly criticized Director Wu's bureaucratic style with increasing disdain and said coldly, "Director Wu, Doctor Ye's employment was approved by Chairman Xiao of the board of directors…"
Seeing Kou Jing still speaking for Little Bai, Wu Changtian's anger intensified, "What of it? Chairman Xiao is my brother-in-law. I could have this kid kicked out with just one word."
He was unaware of the recent personnel changes in the board of directors. He thought the chairman was still the wealthy heir who was his sister's lover, Xiao Ding, not knowing that his "brother-in-law" had been ousted due to poor management and replaced by Xiao Haimei.
This guy must have been indulging himself again at some entertainment venue, completely oblivious to the major personnel changes in the board.
Kou Jing knew it was pointless to continue discussing with Director Wu, so she simply chose to ignore him.
Just then, Ye Haochuan suddenly spoke to her, "I need some peace…"
Although his intention was to ask for some quiet, Wu Changtian misheard something else entirely.
Wu Changtian exploded on the spot: "You need peace? Peace my ass! Is Doctor Kou someone you can think about?"
Kou Jing blushed deeply and trembled with mortification. This Director Wu was a real bastard—how could he spout such nonsense?
Unbeknownst to her, the supported Ye Haochuan suddenly sneered, "Director Wu, if a guy like me can't think about Doctor Kou, do you think a guy like you can?"
Wu Changtian was instantly speechless, not expecting to be countered so sharply by this pretty face.
Kou Jing was so embarrassed that even her ears turned crimson red.
Fortunately, at that moment, Tan Yuying approached, anxiously asking, "Doctor Kou, how is my son now?"
"He's been revived." A smile appeared on Kou Jing's face. "Thanks to Doctor Ye. If he hadn't put all his efforts into the rescue, I fear…"
"That's good. If anything had happened to my son, I would make sure he regretted it." Tan Yuying glared at Ye Haochuan hatefully.
Kou Jing was shocked; she hadn't expected that even after Ye Haochuan had saved the person, he would still be resented by the family member.
Han Xue'er felt it was incredibly unfair. Doctor Ye was completely exhausted from the effort, yet this Ms. Tan was being so harsh, showing no gratitude whatsoever.
She indignantly said, "President Tan, how can you speak like that? If it weren't for Doctor Ye's intervention, your son would have been a goner today, do you understand?"
"He chose to save him; what does that have to do with me? I didn't ask him to!" Tan Yuying sneered. "Besides, when such an incident occurred at the school, shouldn't Haishan University have done their utmost to save him?"
At this moment, Li Tianwei joined in, coldly saying, "We haven't pursued his disrespectful contradiction; that alone is already a huge favor. What? Does he expect us to be grateful to him?"
Hearing this, Ye Haochuan was extremely frustrated inside. Damn it, I'm really too nice. If I had known this couple's attitude earlier, I would've let their son die.
Just as Kou Jing and Han Xue'er were about to scold them, Ye Haochuan sneered, "Today I've truly experienced how shameless you unscrupulous businessmen can be in changing your faces. You probably think now that your son is revived, everything is fine, right? Naïve, stupid, childish!"
Li Tianwei and Tan Yuying's expressions changed. "What?"
Ye Haochuan, too tired to explain, told Kou Jing and Han Xue'er in a grave tone, "Help me back to the dorm; I need to rest."
"Oh." Kou Jing and Han Xue'er did as told.
At that moment, Li Tianwei suddenly stepped in front of them, his tone harsh, "Ye Haochuan, clarify your statement, or you won't be leaving."
Ye Haochuan retorted, "I don't repeat myself. Get out of the way!"
"You..." Li Tianwei trembled with anger.
Thinking of his exalted status as the head of Tianwei Group, a man who called the shots in Haishan, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
Watching Ye Haochuan about to be assisted away by Kou Jing and Han Xue'er, Tan Yuying screamed, "Ye Haochuan, don't think you're all that! Without you, there are plenty of experts and professors who can treat my son... Honey, let's transfer our son to another hospital immediately."
"Alright." Li Tianwei nodded.
Just as Ye Haochuan was about to be helped away by Kou Jing and Han Xue'er, on the other side, Wu Changtian grew more jealous and barked, "Kou Jing, Han Xue'er, you are doctors and nurses of our school hospital, meant to take care of patients. Who the hell is Ye Haochuan that he needs your care? Everyone come back and take care of President Li's son!"
"If care is needed, you can do it yourself!" Kou Jing responded coldly as frost.
Wu Changtian roared, "Good for you, Kou Jing, do you have no respect for your leaders anymore? Do you know who President Li is? He's a big shot in Haishan's business community, absolutely not someone to offend. Hurry back here, otherwise, you're fired."
"Fire me then. Following a sycophant like you is shameful!"
Having said that, Kou Jing gave Han Xue'er a look and hurried away with Ye Haochuan.
"Rebellion, rebellion..." Wu Changtian was furious to the point of explosion.
At that moment, Li Tianwei said coldly, "Alright, Director Wu, later think of a way to fire all three of them. As medical staff, what kind of quality is this?"
Even though he was furious, Wu Changtian dared not offend an influential figure like Li Tianwei, and quickly put on a smile, "President Li is right, I'll have my brother-in-law fire them right away."
At this time, Tan Yuying said, "Director Wu, you are the head of surgery, I need you to arrange for my son's transfer now."
"Yes, yes, I'll arrange that right now."
Inside the operating room, Wu Changtian immediately had several nurses prepare for the transfer of the injured patient. At that moment, he suddenly noticed the dozen or so silver filiform needles on the patient's chest. Frowning, he said, "Why insert so many silver needles for a surgery? Pull them out."
The nurses dared not act, saying that Doctor Ye had strongly instructed not to remove them yet, as it might worsen the patient's condition.
"Have you all grown wings? Dare to disobey me? Pull them out!" Wu Changtian glared and shouted.
Having been snubbed by Ye Haochuan and with his love interest snatched away, his temper was flaring, and the poor nurses ended up being his venting posts.
Wu Changtian was not inept; he could tell the condition of the patient at a glance. Since President Li's son's body was already normal, why keep so many silver needles in?
But he could never have expected that just as one nurse had managed to pull out a single needle, the patient on the bed began to cough up blood incessantly.
"What's going on?" Li Tianwei and Tan Yuying's expressions changed.
Even if they lacked medical knowledge, they knew what their son coughing up blood implied.
Initially, Wu Changtian thought it was a minor issue and with his medical skills, resolving it would not be difficult. But once he actually got involved, he suddenly realized that the situation was far more complicated than he had envisioned.
In a frantic attempt to administer emergency treatment, the situation only worsened, and the patient coughed up even more blood.
Only then did Wu Changtian realize that pulling out the needle was a mistake and beyond his ability to remedy.
The operating room was in chaos, and a nurse began to complain that he should not have removed the needle.
Li Tianwei and Tan Yuying heard this and woke up to the reality, so furious they even thought of violently dealing with Director Wu.
Tan Yuying immediately rushed up, grabbing and scratching Director Wu as she screamed, "You bastard, everything was fine so why did you remove the needle? Why did you remove the needle... I will fight you..."
