Return to the City: The Strongest King
Chapter 2105 - 1970: Just Find a Man to Adjust Things
"Ah, sisters like us with bitter fates, trapped in this cold courtyard all day, can’t even see fallen leaves!" Miao Qingqing sniffed, lamenting.
"If you want to see fallen leaves, go outside and look. There are camphor trees everywhere by the courtyard wall, look as much as you want." Song Xiaoru pointed out the window in annoyance.
"And the elders at home are always scolding us!" Miao Xuanxuan pretended to cry, wiping her tears.
"Look at Xiaodong, each one becoming so sly! You should handle them!" Song Xiaoru pointed at Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan and said to Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong didn’t speak but instead sat down beside Lin Su’er and said to her, "Su’er, let me ask you, if I want you to go back and be the president, would you be willing?"
"I... I don’t know." Lin Su’er shook her head.
"Sister Su’er, why not come to my company? Since Sister Xuanxuan’s not around, you can come to my company and keep me company... ahem, work with me?" Xiao Yingying blinked her big eyes, asking Lin Su’er.
"Yes, our company has lots of fresh faces under its wing, you’d definitely like them, each one more good-looking than those other guys." Miao Xuanxuan said to Lin Su’er.
"What’s the use of being good-looking, I’ve got money, and I’m capable!" Song Xiaodong said to Miao Xuanxuan.
"What’s the use of being capable? I can’t rely on that." Miao Xuanxuan glanced at Song Xiaodong.
"Think about it, Su’er." Song Xiaodong asked Lin Su’er.
"Hmph, you were saying such grandiose things at first, claiming you’d take care of people, and just after a few days at home, you’re thinking of driving them to work. Can’t you let Su’er keep us company?" Miao Qingqing said.
"Exactly!" Miao Xuanxuan echoed.
"Why are you two instigating trouble?" Song Xiaodong gave Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan a sideways glance.
"Here’s the situation, I’ve decided to see those patients the day after tomorrow, this can’t be delayed any longer. So if you still want to be president, I can use this as a condition to treat those medical disputes, otherwise, there really won’t be another chance." Song Xiaodong said to Lin Su’er.
"Sigh, I’m really disheartened, forced by professional troublemakers to this extent, and nobody stands up to speak for the hospital. As the president, I can’t even protect the hospital’s interests, what’s the point in being president?" Lin Su’er sighed.
"They’ve also received their comeuppance, you saw those four patients the other day, now each one is worse off than the other, and they’ve returned most of the money they extorted from the hospital." Song Xiaodong replied.
"This is exactly what frustrates me, we can’t use legitimate channels and methods to safeguard the hospital’s interests, we have to resort to behind-the-scenes methods!" Lin Su’er said.
"Even evil people have others to deal with them; having gone through this, there definitely won’t be a second time, I guarantee you." Song Xiaodong assured Lin Su’er.
"Hm." Lin Su’er nodded.
"Then I’ll find a way to restore your position by tomorrow." Song Xiaodong continued.
"Hm." Lin Su’er nodded again.
"Ah!—Xuanxuan, from now on it’s just the two of us staring at each other!" Miao Qingqing wailed to Miao Xuanxuan.
"Alright, you two, I’ll take you out to have fun this weekend." Song Xiaodong turned around and said to Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan.
"Xiaodong, is it safe?" Song Xiaoru wanted to stop Song Xiaodong.
"It’s fine, I am a physician after all!" Song Xiaodong reassured Song Xiaoru.
"Alright, make sure you take care of them, if they suffer any grievances, I won’t let you off!" Song Xiaoru warned Song Xiaodong.
"Yes, yes, yes..."
The next day, Song Xiaodong went to Lin Su’er Hospital for consultations as usual.
Early in the morning, a group of chickenpox patients were listlessly lining up to register in the lobby on the first floor.
Vice President Zhao heard that Song Xiaodong came to consult again and arrived early to discuss matters with Mr. Song.
"Oh wow, Mr. Song is here?" Vice President Zhao was exceedingly respectful and enthusiastic towards Song Xiaodong.
Chapter 1973: Resuming Position
"Hm." Song Xiaodong nodded.
"Mr. Song, the patients who came yesterday have returned today, all wanting your appointment!" Vice President Zhao said to Song Xiaodong.
"Hm." Song Xiaodong nodded again.
Seeing Song Xiaodong looking half-dead, Vice President Zhao had to hold back and said, "Mr. Song, you come to our hospital for consultations every day, but don’t treat any patients, it really puts our hospital in a tough spot."
Song Xiaodong didn’t speak, just sat in a chair and randomly flipped through the documents on the desk.
"Mr. Song, those patients went elsewhere yesterday to buy the Chinese medicine you prescribed, but had no results, so they’ve come to find you again today. Mr. Song, could you possibly take a look at the patients today?" Vice President Zhao asked Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong looked up, tilted his head and stared at Vice President Zhao for a while, making him feel uneasy.
After a long pause, Song Xiaodong finally spoke, "Vice President Zhao, why haven’t I treated the patients, surely you know yourself?"
"I understand, I understand!" Vice President Zhao nodded and walked out to call Director Wu.
"Hello? Director Wu?"
"Yes, it’s me. What’s up?"
"Director Wu, Song Xiaodong still refuses to treat the patients, but he’s just sitting here in our hospital."
"Alright, I understand."
Director Wu hung up the phone, frowned, and instructed Secretary Zhang, "Call Lin Su’er."
Lin Su’er’s phone rang.
"Hello? Secretary Zhang? Oh, it’s Director Wu!"
"Return to the hospital and resume work!" Director Wu’s directive was very concise.
"Yes!" Lin Su’er’s reply was even more succinct.
