Su Yanxi’s words made everyone in the meeting room turn to look at the man who was as calm as ever. Yi Yao, who was sitting beside her, was even smitten by him, but she had no choice but to keep her infatuated thoughts to herself because it was work time.
It was almost as if the conference room was silent for a century before Deputy Director Wang broke the silence with a laugh, “So, Ms. Su knows Dr. Lu!”
Su Yanxi chuckled, “Dr. Lu is a famous person. I’m sure everyone in T City knows him!”
“You flatter me. Ms. Su’s reputation in T City should be excellent as well!” Lu Jingyan crossed his legs and stared at her pretty face as he replied coldly.
Su Yanxi pursed her lips. She could hear the sarcasm in his words.
“Um, Ms Su, Dr. Lu is the director of our department… He was also my mentor when I was an intern doctor,” Wang He explained when the atmosphere between the two of them slowly became weird.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the conference room suddenly opened, and a flustered nurse walked in, “Deputy Director, bad news. Yang Liping’s family members are making a fuss in the surgical department again. They’re clamoring to see you, Dr. Wang, and Dr. Lu.”
As soon as the nurse finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room turned pale. Only Lu Jingyan stood up calmly from his chair and placed his hands into the pockets of his suit pants. When he passed by Su Yanxi, he even glanced at her and coldly said, “I’ll go take a look.”
After understanding more about the situation, Su Yanxi said that she would take this opportunity to meet the patient’s family and talk to them about reconciliation.
When the group of people arrived at the surgical department, they saw three middle-aged men arguing with Lu Jingyan aggressively. Beside them stood a tearful old woman and a young girl.
Upon seeing them, the three middle-aged men became even more furious. They rushed over quickly and pushed Su Yanxi and Yi Yao away. They grabbed Deputy Director Chen and Wang He’s collars and questioned loudly, “You two cowards are finally willing to show your faces. How do you plan to resolve my brother’s matter?”
Because the three men were huge, Su Yanxi, who was pushed back suddenly, staggered a few steps. Just as she was about to fall to the side, Lu Jingyan, who was three meters away from her, immediately stepped forward to grab her arm.
Su Yanxi stopped in her tracks and looked up instinctively. When she met his deep and cold eyes, her lips moved and she said in a pleasant voice, “Thank you.” Then, she retracted her arm from his large palm.
Lu Jingyan’s expression darkened, but he did not say anything.
“Please calm down, we’ll discuss this matter properly. This is the lawyer we just hired, so…” Deputy Director Chen was frightened by the imposing manner of the three of them. He pointed a trembling finger at Su Yanxi. His tone clearly lacked confidence.
When the three of them heard that, they looked at Su Yanxi, whom the deputy director was pointing at, and became even angrier, “Damn it, my brother died in your hospital, and you want to use this woman to patronize us now? Do you believe that I will sue this lousy hospital of yours to the court immediately?”
“I think that if you have a certain degree of confidence, you would have already gone to the court to file a complaint. Since you’re standing here looking for the hospital, it means that you don’t have much confidence in this lawsuit, right?” Su Yanxi was calm and composed as she quietly looked at the furious trio. Every word she said was aimed at their hearts.
