Chapter 507 Comrade Xu, this is a misunderstanding!

“Yes, Comrade Xu, we’re all very dedicated to our work. One yuan isn’t a lot of money. Don’t take it so seriously. They all have elderly parents and young children to support. Comrade Qi is getting married soon. It would be too unethical to prevent her from getting married over one yuan…”

Xu Ying's eyes turned cold as she coldly swept her gaze over the nurses at the nurses' station who seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold.

He sneered, "Shameless?"

The nurse who spoke up for her friend shrank back under her cold stare, but seeing her friend's face covered in tears, she muttered, "That's right. Comrade Su didn't do anything wrong. Why make such a fuss and insist on kicking him out? He even knelt down for you, and you still wouldn't let it go. What is that if not immoral?"

The patient's family members nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

"Comrade Xu, why don't we just let it go? Let's keep things peaceful. We're going to be staying here for a while, so why make things unpleasant with them? What if they're not nice when they check on us later? Wouldn't that upset our patients at home?"

"Yeah yeah……"

“We all have sick family members. If we make such a big fuss, we'll be the ones who suffer in the end.”

"Comrade Xu, please bear with it..."

Xu Ying felt a tightness in her chest from anger. If they had sincerely apologized, the matter might have been resolved. She wasn't the type to abuse her power and bully others.

But they insisted on bullying her, trying to manipulate her through gossip and force her to submit...

She really won't back down!

"Where's the head nurse? Where are the hospital security guards? Go and find them. If I can't find the head nurse or any of your hospital's leaders, I will pursue this matter to the end!"

Xu Ying glanced at the other nurses at the nurses' station, who were looking at each other in bewilderment, and said with a half-smile, "What? Do you all want to be fired from the hospital along with them?"

The nurses' expressions changed drastically.

The nurse, who had spoken up for her friend, glared at Xu Ying and said, "Hey, you..."

"Stop talking!"

A nurse nearby grabbed her and held her down, while other nurses ran out to find the head nurse.

"What are you afraid of? We were just saying a few words out of pity for them, and she actually dared to fire us all? Who does she think she is?"

The nurse who spoke up for her friend gave a light scoff.

Xu Ying glanced at her, then looked down at the strip of cloth with her name written on it on her chest, and ignored her.

A moment later, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

The head nurse strode in and saw Xu Ying carrying a food box, surrounded by a group of people. At her feet were kneeling her own nurses and one of the nurses' mothers-in-law. Her face looked extremely grim.

"What are you doing? Get up right now!" The head nurse strode forward and scolded the two nurses.

The nurse shook her head, crying, and said, "If Comrade Xu doesn't forgive us, we won't get up. Head Nurse, please beg her for us. We know we were wrong, and we won't charge you anymore..."

The head nurse pursed her lips and looked up at Xu Ying.

Xu Ying met her gaze, her smile not reaching her eyes. "This is the satisfactory answer your hospital gave me after two days of discussion? Sending your nurses and their families here to morally blackmail me? Is this how you medical staff cover up for taking money and harming people? Or should I have someone investigate to see if there are any others who have slipped through the net..."

"Don't!"

The head nurse's face not only changed drastically, but she was practically bloodless. "Comrade Xu, this is a misunderstanding! I absolutely did not encourage them to do this, and our hospital absolutely did not give any verbal hints. This was all their own behavior, and it has nothing to do with me or our hospital."

Not only the head nurse, but also the patients' family members who had been watching and pleading for the nurse changed their expressions upon hearing Xu Ying's words.

Once this happens, it will happen again.

What if other nurses follow suit, accept money from their rivals, and use it to harm their own families...

"My God, does your hospital really protect its own people like this from top to bottom?"

"I...I'm going to find my in-laws. I can't stay in this hospital anymore, it's too scary..."

“I also called to ask if my family has any other connections. Even this VIP hospital room isn’t safe.”

Five or six family members of the patients hurriedly walked out.

The head nurse was so frightened her heart almost stopped. "No, everyone, listen to me! This is an isolated case. Our hospital is always very strict with its staff. We've already dealt with these two; they'll be dismissed soon, really..."

Those family members wouldn't listen to her; they didn't even stop walking.

The head nurse looked at Xu Ying, her forehead covered in sweat. "Comrade Xu, this is truly a misunderstanding. I was busy making rounds this morning and hadn't given them the termination notice yet. I only verbally told them to pack their things and go to process their resignation. I never expected them to cause such a scene. All the other medical staff in our hospital are upright and honest..."

Xu Ying glanced at her.

That look made the head nurse's heart skip a beat again, and the rest of her words got stuck in her throat, unable to come out.

Whether it's clean or not, everyone knows it; Xu Ying knows it, and so does she.

It just hasn't been revealed yet.

But if she doesn't handle this kind of incident in the VIP ward properly, her job as head nurse is probably over.

Knowing that the most important thing right now is to deal with the two nurses under her command, the head nurse took a deep breath and called out, "Where are the medical police? Where are the security guards? Come here quickly, take them away, and make sure they complete their resignation procedures and leave immediately."

The medical police officers who had been waiting at a distance rushed over and each of them pulled the nurse up from the ground and pushed her out.

"Let's go quickly."

"What's all the fuss about? Let's go."

The nurse stumbled a couple of steps as she was shoved, then angrily turned to Xu Ying and yelled, "Xu Ying, you deserve to marry a divorced man, you deserve to be played like a fool by him, and you deserve to be over thirty and still unable to have a child!"

Another joined in the cursing, "That guy from the Su family must only be with you because he's after your Xu family's power. You bully us because you're powerful and influential. Sooner or later he'll use you and abandon you like your first man did. You deserve to be unloved by any man your whole life..."

The head nurse was terrified.

He strode over and slapped one of them across the face.

"Shut up, all of you! It was wrong of you to take the money, and then you let people in and almost killed a patient. Do you think you'll get away with it if Comrade Xu doesn't pursue the matter? Just dismissing you is already a light punishment. According to hospital regulations, your behavior will be reported to all the major hospitals in Beijing. Do you know what a report means?"

The head nurse glared at the two angry girls with a look of utter disappointment. "This means you'll never be able to work in a hospital again, never be nurses again, and you'll be completely cut off from this profession! If Comrade Xu really wants to use his power to bully people, you and your families will be ruined for life! Do you even want to have a job in the future?"
