Chapter 26: Backup

“Mr. Lu, look, now that we’ve found the card, let’s not complicate things, okay?”

Director Zhang wiped his sweat with his white handkerchief.

Regardless of whether there was a card thief or not, it was best to keep the matter quiet for now. Otherwise, when the matter really got out of hand, none of the people in the office would be able to escape.

He had heard that the Lu family would take revenge and return the favor. Now that Lu Qingzhuo had He Youran under his wing, he was bound to protect her.

There were no card thieves. They were all hecklers. If there were card thieves, they wouldn’t be able to escape the blame for slandering He Youran!

This office was filled with the elites of the number one hospital in Rong city. If they were to face a lawsuit because of this, their hospital’s public image would definitely be greatly hindered!

“Maybe, maybe the card accidentally fell into the trash can…” Director Zhang kept winking at Chen Man.

Chen Man was a member of the number one hospital in Rong city. Now that she had calmed down, she could distinguish the pros and cons.

Although she was unwilling, she still reluctantly said, “Maybe.”

Director Zhang let out a sigh of relief.

Thank God, this willful young miss still knew how to judge the situation. Otherwise, if she continued to make a fuss, it would be all over!

He Xue’er also let out a sigh of relief.

She was the last person who wanted to keep this investigation going.

It was still fine if Chen Man was the villain now, but for the sake of the Chen family, Director Zhang would definitely protect Chen Man.

But, this might not be the case if it was her.

The He family was still a far cry from the real wealthy families. If they found out that she had intentionally wronged He Youran, and the Lu family insisted on holding her accountable, she would definitely be abandoned!

How could her future just end like that?

He Xue’er gritted her teeth. She was filled with resentment and hatred. She stared at He Youran with eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.

He Youran’s luck was too good!

And this man from the Lu family, why did he trust He Youran so much? If he hadn’t insisted on protecting He Youran, how could things have ended up like this!

“Miss He, what do you say?”

Lu Qingzhuo asked He Youran at the right time.

His gaze was gentle and his tone was calm. He wasn’t as aggressive as he was when he faced the others.

He gave He Youran enough respect and confidence, as if he was silently announcing to the others, “This is the person I’m protecting. Her attitude will determine the outcome of this matter.”.

Director Zhang was the director of the hospital after all, so how could he not know what was going on? He quickly walked over to He Youran and said obsequiously,

“Doctor He, I’m sorry that working in our hospital has brought you a bad experience, but please give us a chance!”

After he finished speaking, he shot Chen Man a look.

Chen Man wanted to grit her teeth.

She never expected that she, who had always been successful, would end up in such a situation. When she thought about how she had to lower her head to He Youran, she hated her to the core!

However, she had to lower her head.

The Chen family was still too insignificant compared to the Lu family. Offending the Lu family would not benefit their family at all!

Forget it.

The Lu family would leave sooner or later. He Youran was working in their hospital, so there would be a chance to punish her sooner or later.

Chen Man tried her best to comfort herself in her heart before she said to He Youran,

“Doctor He, I’m sorry.”

Even though she was apologizing, her head was still raised high, carrying her usual arrogance.

He Youran raised her eyebrows.

She really didn’t like Chen Man’s attitude, but the farce that had gone on for too long today had already annoyed her a little.

And…

She smiled slyly and ignored Chen Man, saying to Director Zhang,

“I can let it go, but…” She pretended to be distressed. “The experience this time was too terrible. Please forgive me for not being able to work at the first hospital in Rong city. After tomorrow’s surgery, I will leave.”

“This…” Director Zhang was a little reluctant to part with a medical talent like He Youran.

But He Youran looked at him, as if she would not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart if he did not agree. He had to nod his head and agree.

He Youran cheered in her heart.

She had finally thrown away this difficult task!

This way, she would have an excuse when the old man asked.

After all, it wasn’t that she didn’t want to stay at the first hospital in Rong city, it was that the people here weren’t friendly and couldn’t tolerate her!
