Chapter 137 Report the specific situation to Director Ma
On the other side, Director Ma paced back and forth in the office, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He was carefully considering how to communicate with Lin Sinan. His hand holding the phone trembled slightly unconsciously.
Director Ma kept thinking about how to handle this matter well, regain the trust and recognition of President Jiang, and keep his position as director.
Director Ma sat down on the chair, which creaked, as if it could not bear the heavy mood he was feeling at the moment.
He looked out the window. The sun was still shining, but he could not feel any warmth. He knew that this crisis was a major test for his career. If he could not get through it smoothly, everything he had before might come to nothing.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and secretly swore in his heart that no matter what the cost, he would do what Dean Jiang asked him to do and give himself a chance.
After calming down for a while, Director Ma sorted out his thoughts, picked up the phone and called Lin Sinan!
The phone rang "Ring, ring, ring". Lin Sinan took a look at the caller ID and found that it was Director Ma from the hospital logistics department. So he signaled to Ke Xin and went into the maintenance office to answer the call.
The phone kept ringing. Lin Sinan answered it, his voice slightly puzzled: "Hello, Director Ma?"
As soon as Director Ma answered the phone, he took a deep breath and said sincerely, "Hello, Mr. Lin Sinan, I'm really sorry. I didn't do my job right before and there was a problem with the personnel I arranged. I apologize."
Lin Sinan was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, seeming a little surprised by this sudden apology.
Director Ma continued, "I had already explained the contract details to Liu Chenyang before he went there. He should just go through the motions, sign on behalf of the hospital, and go through the formalities!"
After a pause, Director Ma continued, "Mr. Lin, please believe that I have absolutely no intention of making things difficult for you. That Liu Chenyang has someone up there, and she told me to take care of her. I had no choice. I didn't expect her to do this!"
When Lin Sinan heard this, he knew that Director Ma had not yet known the whole story, otherwise he would not have been in the mood to complain to him and would have gone to Aunt Jiang to admit his mistake long ago!
Thinking of this, Lin Sinan interrupted Director Ma's complaint and said quickly: "Director Ma, I think you should first talk to Liu Chenyang about what happened yesterday, and then discuss other things!"
Director Ma heard that Lin Sinan's tone was a little off, and asked carefully: "Mr. Lin, what did Liu Chenyang do yesterday? Can you tell me?"
Lin Sinan took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said slowly: "Director Ma, since you want to hear it, I will report to you what happened yesterday.
Lin Sinan paused and said, "Yesterday's situation is simply hard to describe."
"We treated him to a meal out of kindness, and booked a table at the most upscale Imperial International Hotel in our city. As soon as Liu Chenyang arrived, he acted so high and mighty, as if he were the king who ruled over everything and we all had to bow down to him."
"Originally, as you instructed, the contract was already prepared. Every clause had been carefully considered and reviewed by you. We just needed his signature, but he kept making things difficult for us."
"At first, he didn't even look at the contract, but just hinted at how much benefits we should give him."
He swaggered in, plopped down on a chair, crossed his legs, and leaned back heavily, his arms folded across his chest. His posture was arrogant and conceited. His eyes were erratic, but he would occasionally glance at us sideways, his mouth slightly raised in a sly smile, as if waiting for us to take the bait.
He coughed lightly before speaking slowly, "It's so hot, and I came all the way from the hospital. It's really not easy." As he spoke, he exaggeratedly wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead with his hand, glancing at us with a hint of anticipation. His tone was drawn out, a bit like a contrived complaint.
We didn't respond, and he seemed a little dissatisfied. He frowned, his brows twisted into a "川" shape, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face. He then said, "Your contract is going to be difficult to handle." After that, he shook his head and smacked his lips, making a "tsk tsk" sound, as if he was disgusted by something dirty.
At this moment, he stretched out a hand and gently tapped the table, his fingertips making a "tap, tap, tap" sound. He raised his voice and practically shouted, "If this is going to go smoothly, you have to understand the rules." His eyes revealed naked greed and insinuation, his eyeballs rolled around, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more wanton.
Seeing we still didn't grasp his point, Liu Chenyang's expression darkened, like a dark, overcast sky, terrifyingly gloomy. His lips pursed tightly, his words grumbling through his teeth: "I have some connections in this hospital, and I have a say. But for doing you this favor, I have to give you something in return, right? Otherwise, why would I bother with this?" His tone was filled with threats and pressure, as if we were already fish on his chopping block.
He paused, leaned forward, and lowered his voice to say, "Think about it yourself. If this contract is stuck with me, you will suffer a great loss." His voice was low and sinister, like a threat from hell. His eyes stared straight at us, his gaze like a venomous snake, chilling.
Then, he deliberately picked up his phone, pretending to answer it, and said loudly: "Hey, Lao Wang, last time I helped you with that matter, I can't treat you unfairly, I'll get you something good later." After hanging up, he looked at us, raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of pride and boasting, and said: "See, this kind of favor exchange is inevitable."
After a while, he started fiddling with his watch, saying, "I've worn this watch for a long time, it's old, and it's time to get a new one." But his eyes were fixed on us, with an eager and greedy look, as if saying, "Buy me a new watch quickly."
Then, seemingly casually, he said, "My lease is about to expire, and I need money everywhere. It's a headache." After saying this, he sighed heavily, the sigh was exaggerated and artificial, clearly hinting that we should give him money.
