Chapter 11 Rounding up, I'm practically her sister-in-law
Even after Xu Qiaofeng left, the people in the office still hadn't reacted.
daughter in law?
Commander Xu's most beloved grandson got married without a word, and even has a baby a month old.
Rumors were flying everywhere that the Xu family line had ended, and even he believed them.
He secretly sent Commander Xu a lot of tonics, though he was always beaten up and kicked out. I was puzzled before...
So this rumor wasn't true at all...
Judging from Xu Qiaofeng's adoring expression just now, and his special instructions to himself, he was afraid that his suitors at the hospital would take advantage of Ning Tang.
In any case, he now has firsthand information.
The commander's granddaughter-in-law is under his command, and his great-grandson is also there. He has to take good care of them. If something really goes wrong, he won't even have enough money to lose his head!
Xu Qiaofeng had just gone out when he saw Ning Tang and Wang Yan in the corridor of the next department.
The other nurses around were initially curious about who she was, that she could be personally led by the arrogant Director Wang.
When he turned around and saw Captain Xu, his eyes immediately lit up.
Then a woman with two braids walked over leisurely, a smile on her lips, every step of hers perfectly planned.
Just as they were about to pass each other, she opened her mouth, but Xu Qiaofeng didn't even glance at her and turned away.
Zhang Jiaman, left standing there, turned ashen-faced.
"Tch, every time Captain Xu comes to the hospital, someone's like a butterfly, practically wanting to pounce on him."
"I don't know where they got the nerve. They were pulled out of the river by Captain Xu and it became a joke, yet they still come to work."
Zhang Jiaman glared at the gossips.
"What do you know? If Captain Xu wasn't interested in me, he would have just left."
“He couldn’t bear to see me die; he cared about me.”
After saying that, he stormed over to Wang Yan.
No one in the hospital knew that Wang Yan was her aunt, and that her aunt had helped her a lot to get a job at the hospital.
At the hospital, she was never allowed to call him "Auntie," only "Director."
"Director, I hate them so much!"
"Can't you just find any excuse to fire them?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Yan subconsciously glanced at Ning Tang beside her, and fearing that she might misunderstand, she turned cold and reprimanded her.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Do you own the hospital?"
Zhang Jiaman never expected Wang Yan to embarrass her in public, and her voice was extremely aggrieved: "They don't work properly, they talk badly about me behind my back!"
"I have something to do. Go to my office and wait for me. Zhang Jiaman, wait till I'm done and I'll give you a piece of my mind."
Zhang Jiaman knew her aunt was going to stand up for her, and her mood instantly brightened.
Turning to look at the silent Ning Tang, the more he looked her up and down, the uglier his expression became.
She looks so flamboyant, yet she works at a hospital.
With her bulging chest and tight-fitting clothes, her curves were obvious to everyone.
This isn't about healing the sick and saving lives; it's clearly about finding a rich husband.
Zhang Jiaman grew angrier the more she thought about it, and her competitive spirit intensified.
What if Captain Xu gets seduced by this little bitch?
Unable to resist, she retorted, "Look at the nurses in our hospital, how many of them are like you, wearing lipstick to work?"
Wang Yan was nearly scared to death. This was a relative of the commander. If she offended her and went back to complain, no one would get away with it.
She guessed that Zhang Jiaman saw Ning Tang as a competitor, so she quickly gave her a look, telling her to behave herself.
As it turned out, Zhang Jiaman didn't see it at all.
He doesn't watch what he says.
Ning Tang has always had a good temper, but she cannot tolerate being humiliated like this.
He looked up at Zhang Jiaman, his eyes no longer gentle, but cold:
"Sorry, I'm naturally beautiful, I didn't wear lipstick."
"On the contrary, you put on makeup, but it all came off because you sweated. Didn't you look in the mirror before work?"
Ning Tang's tone was calm, yet every word she spoke was piercing.
The nurses around couldn't help but chuckle. Zhang Jiaman was quite pretty, but her eyebrows were a mess.
She had to draw her eyebrows every day before going to work, and she made them very thick. When she sweated, they would smudge and look like she had been punched from a distance, but no one dared to say anything.
Zhang Jiaman instantly bristled and reached out to grab Ning Tang's clothes.
Wang Yan was so frightened she almost lost her mind. She quickly pulled the person away and slapped her on the back several times.
"I see you don't respect me, the director, at all!"
"Come with me right now, I need to have a serious talk with you, young comrade!"
As he spoke, he pulled Zhang Jiaman toward the office.
He gave Ning Tang an apologetic smile, but no matter how you looked at it, it seemed like he was a sycophant.
Ning Tang wasn't stupid; she had already figured it out.
The reason Zhang Jiaman is so fearless is probably because she has a close relationship with Director Wang. She talks about teaching him a lesson, but who knows what she says behind his back once the office door is closed.
"Xiao Ning, I have something to do today. Come back tomorrow and I'll show you around properly."
Ning Tang smiled and nodded, neither humble nor arrogant: "Then, Director Wang, I'll be going now."
Before even entering the hospital, not wanting to make a scene and cause trouble for Grandpa and Grandma Xu, she turned and walked outside after saying that.
As soon as Ning Tang disappeared, Wang Yan let go of Zhang Jiaman's hand.
She was both heartbroken and angry: "You stupid girl, do you know who Ning Tang is backing? If we offend her, our hospital will have to be completely reshuffled!"
"That flirtatious look of hers, she's probably some big boss's mistress!" Zhang Jiaman said dismissively, her eyes full of disdain.
Wang Yan quickly covered her mouth.
His chest heaved with anger, and he pointed at Zhang Jiaman's nose, muttering, "Don't drag me down with you when you're courting death."
"Mistress? That's Commander Xu's relative. Captain Xu personally escorted her to the dean's office just now, and even the dean was very polite to her. But you, you went up there and started a fight. You really think I have too much time on my hands!"
Zhang Jiaman then panicked.
I just couldn't stand it, but now I find it pleasing to the eye.
No wonder Ning Tang is so beautiful; she's a relative of Captain Xu.
After she marries into the family, she'll see them all the time; how awkward will that be?
"Auntie, was Ning Tang's visit to our hospital also arranged by Commander Xu?"
"Of course, the dean's idea was to arrange for her to study in our internal medicine department first. I was just helping her get familiar with things, thinking that she would definitely remember me when she became successful. Who would have thought that you would suddenly appear and cause me trouble."
Should I come to the internal medicine department?
Being in a good position gives her an advantage; she has to seize this opportunity.
Zhang Jiaman's eyes lit up, and she clung to Wang Yan's arm, pleading, "Auntie, why don't you give Ning Tang to me? I'll take care of her."
"What kind of trouble are you trying to cause now?"
“What can I do? She’s a relative of Captain Xu, but with a different surname. She should be from the mother’s side. Once we get married, I’ll be her sister-in-law.”
"You'd better give up on that idea. Captain Xu is a perfect son-in-law; he's not for you."
Zhang Jiaman, however, didn't listen and was making her own plans.
If she could win Ning Tang over to her side and take good care of her, and get her to speak well of her to Captain Xu, then maybe Captain Xu would see her good qualities.
Then she can find an opportunity to get closer to Captain Xu. When the time is right, and given her beauty, there's no doubt Xu Qiaofeng will be attracted to her.
Zhang Jiaman shared her thoughts with Wang Yan.
Wang Yan frowned, feeling a little wavering in her heart.
After all, if a high-ranking family like the Xu family could really get involved, their descendants for the next three generations would have no worries about their future.
"Let me make this clear from the start: if anything happens to Ning Tang, you and I will both be fired."
"Don't worry, Auntie, as her sister-in-law, I will definitely take good care of her."
