Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 373 - 372: What Apology Should Not Be Made?
"Director Ni, Mr. Bravo says that your Huaxia Country claims to be a land of ceremonies, doesn’t it? Is this what you call manners? Splashing juice on him and then accusing him? If you cannot handle this matter properly, he believes there is no need to continue his inspection. He will report to the headquarters tonight and will also share this unpleasant experience with the Spanish media, to ensure this incident is publicized and prevent more entrepreneurs, who are not familiar with Huaxia Country, especially Linzhou City, from investing here." A young woman dressed in a white shirt, a black pencil skirt, and wearing black-framed glasses, her lipstick a bright red, said to a middle-aged man with a round belly.
As she spoke, the young woman glanced at Jin Yushan with eyes full of arrogance and contempt, as if she saw herself as superior.
The middle-aged man, who was Director Ni, had his already dark expression flash with a hint of panic.
"Director Wu, you have to believe me, if I had really accidentally spilled juice on Mr. Bravo, I would have apologized already. It was when I was getting some food, he was harassing me from behind, and then he even touched my, my buttocks, I was carrying juice, got startled and that’s how it accidentally got spilled on him," Jin Yushan said tearfully to Wu Longcai.
"Director Wu, I can testify, Yushan is not lying, and why would we lie about such a thing?" Lin Sijie said.
"You two shut your mouths," Director Ni, frowning, scolded Jin Yushan and Lin Sijie, then turned to Wu Longcai, "Director Wu, you are a wise man, you should understand the importance of international issues irrespective of their size. No matter who is right or wrong, just have these two young ladies apologize. After all, an apology won’t cost them anything."
"Director Wu, just let them apologize, there’s no need to be upset with the foreigner. If this gets blown up, a single call from the higher-ups to the station and you probably won’t escape a reprimand," a man with flowing long hair, who appeared to be in his forties, said with a frown, then quietly advised Wu Longcai.
Seeing that both Director Ni and Wu Longcai’s friend sided with Bravo, a triumphant expression appeared on the young woman’s face, as if she were not a citizen of Huaxia but a Spaniard, and she even went on to translate in a low voice what Director Ni and Wu Longcai’s friend had said to Bravo in Spanish.
Bravo was a man who appeared to be in his early forties but had the physique of a Weeble Wobble and was balding slightly. Upon hearing the words, he adjusted his waistband and looked at Wu Longcai, Jin Yushan, and the others with a gaze full of arrogance and disdain.
"Director Ni, this isn’t about whether a piece of flesh is missing. It’s about who is right and who is wrong. I cannot have my friend be humiliated and then have her apologize to this foreigner; that’s not reasonable. However, since he is a foreigner, I respect the fact that a visitor from afar is to be treated as a guest, and since there’s no way to substantiate the incident, I propose we both take a step back. My friend won’t pursue Mr. Bravo’s offensive behavior, and Mr. Bravo should not dwell on the juice incident," Wu Longcai said, glaring at Bravo and his female assistant with their arrogant and smug expressions, feeling infuriated inside, but he also understood Huaxia’s current situation, desperately needing foreign investment in their economic development, and attracting business, particularly foreign investments, had become a top priority for governments at all levels. Moreover, Huaxia’s development required a favorable international climate, so he could appreciate Director Ni’s saying that no international matter was too small, and as a director of a provincial entertainment station, he would have to swallow his pride.
Otherwise, if it had been someone else who dared to touch Jin Yushan’s buttocks and then required her to apologize, with Wu Longcai’s current status, position, and temperament, he might have thrown a punch already.
"Director Wu, you are putting me in a difficult position!" Director Ni’s face dropped upon hearing this.
By this time, the female assistant had already translated Wu Longcai’s words to Bravo.
"This is a defamation against me, and I will protest to your city’s mayor right now. Yania, call Mayor Lu immediately," Bravo demanded upon hearing the translation.
The Mayor Lu mentioned by Bravo is Linzhou City’s deputy mayor responsible for international affairs and business attraction. When Bravo initially arrived, Mayor Lu had personally received him. Afterwards, it was naturally not possible for the deputy mayor to accompany him the whole time, and it fell to others to accompany him.
Since Bravo’s main point of inspection was the Jiuyuan Economic Development Zone, the zone’s Investment Promotion Bureau was responsible for the daily reception over these two days.
Director Ni was the deputy director of Linzhou City’s Jiuyuan Economic Development Zone Investment Promotion Bureau. He was dining with Bravo at the Mingyue Lake revolving restaurant in the evening and never expected to encounter such an incident.
Seeing Bravo about to call Mayor Lu to protest, Director Ni’s forehead began to sweat slightly; he hurriedly called after the Huaxia Country woman with a Spanish name, who was serving as an assistant.
However, the female assistant was quite arrogant and ignored Director Ni. She just flicked her hair with a shrug, took out her cell phone, and made the call.
"Director Wu, look, why bother with this?" Seeing that the female assistant had already called Mayor Lu, Director Ni could only look at Wu Longcai with a bitter smile.
Wu Longcai watched as the female assistant made the call, his expression turning sour, while Jin Yushan’s face turned pale, regretting her earlier display of defiance.
After the assistant got through, she briefly spoke, and then, with a look of triumph, handed the phone to Wu Longcai, saying, "Director Wu, Mayor Lu would like you to take a call."
Wu Longcai, watching the assistant’s triumphant face as she passed the phone, changed his expression slightly before taking the call.
Shortly after taking the call, Wu Longcai’s complexion grew ugly, while the female assistant whispered the translation of the recent conversation to Bravo, simultaneously watching Wu Longcai with schadenfreude.
After listening to the assistant’s translation, Bravo hitched up his waistband again, his face full of arrogance and contempt.
"Director Wu, should I apologize to him?" To Jin Yushan, a university student, a mayor of a provincial capital city—whether the official mayor or deputy mayor—represented an unimaginably high-ranking official. Seeing the assistant’s smug expression and Wu Longcai’s frustrated demeanor, she gently tugged at Wu’s clothes and whispered.
"Apologize if it’s necessary, but why apologize if it’s not?" It was then that a cold voice sounded behind Director Ni and the others.
"Dongxu!" Jin Yushan and Lin Sijie, hearing that familiar voice, looked up in surprise toward the source, their expressions turning from cold to adoration. Who else could it be but their admired Dongxu?

"Dongxu!" Wu Longcai also saw Ge Dongxu at this moment, his eyes suddenly lighting up, and he let out an inward sigh of relief.

With this influential figure here, the issue would be easier to address. Otherwise, Wu, as a "mere" director of a provincial entertainment station, truly wouldn’t be able to handle an incident involving foreign affairs.
