Zhang Lanxiang paused for a moment, then nodded heavily. "Fine, since this is your choice, I respect it! But don't blame me! I won't have the surgery. You'd better take care of yourself!"
Leaving those words behind, Zhang Lanxiang stormed off to the door.
"Wait a minute!"
thump!
At this moment, Zhang Zhiyuan knelt down, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Zhang Lanxiang glanced at him coldly, "Deputy Mayor Zhang, what are you doing now?"
Zhang Zhiyuan choked up as he said, "I'm not a deputy mayor, I'm just a father. I beg you, as a father, to save my daughter!!"
A man's knees are worth their weight in gold!
He couldn't just stand by and watch his daughter die!
At this moment, this is the greatest effort I can make as a father!
Zhang Lanxiang smiled coldly, "Sorry! I've seen this scene too many times. I have my own rules! If you want to save a life, you always have to pay a price. You're the one who didn't follow the rules! Don't blame me!"
In the past, countless poor people who couldn't afford surgery begged her on their knees like this.
What's the use?
The operating room is full of money; all she cares about is profit!
Zhang Lanxiang snorted and walked out.
At this moment, when everyone saw Zhang Lanxiang come out, they hurriedly went to greet her.
Liu Hua said, "Director Zhang, what do you think? Do you agree to take action?"
"Director Zhang, I beg you, you must save my daughter!" Wang Juan also came over and pleaded.
Zhang Lanxiang looked disdainful and said coldly, "I already gave Vice Mayor Zhang a chance, but he couldn't seize it. He can't be blamed for that!"
Everyone was stunned, puzzled and wondering why Zhang Lanxiang would say such a thing.
"Strive for excellence!"
At this moment, Zhang Zhiyuan also walked out of the office, looking as if he had lost his parents.
"Zhiyuan, what exactly did you say to Director Zhang? Why did Director Zhang..."
Zhang Zhiyuan took a deep breath and said with a guilty expression, "I'm sorry, Juan, it's my fault. I can't agree to Director Zhang's request!"
Require?
Everyone was increasingly confused, not knowing what was going on.
Only Yu Xiyan knew what had happened.
At this moment, she could no longer hold back. She stood up angrily and shouted, "Director Zhang wanted Vice Mayor Zhang to bend the law for personal gain in order to save her criminal husband, but Vice Mayor Zhang refused!"
"Director Zhang, you are my father's junior colleague and also my elder. I shouldn't criticize you!"
"But you were wrong in this matter!"
Yu Xiyan said righteously, "As doctors, treating and saving lives should be our top priority. How can we use our medical skills to threaten others? It's really unethical and goes against medical ethics!"
"You little girl, do you think you're qualified to criticize me?" Zhang Lanxiang smiled contemptuously.
"Don't advise others to do good if you haven't experienced their suffering!"
"Whether I save someone or not is my own right. It's neither against the rules nor the law, and you have no right to criticize me! None of you have the right to force me!" Zhang Lanxiang coldly swept her gaze across the group of people, her face arrogant.
Yu Xiyan retorted indignantly, "But you are now a doctor at our First Affiliated Hospital. Shouldn't you fulfill your duties? You have the ability to perform the surgery, but you refuse to, which is also a violation of hospital regulations!"
"So what? Get your dad to fire me?"
Zhang Lanxiang smiled arrogantly, "You don't even know who I am! I'm a VIP at any hospital, I can easily get a temporary position and earn millions every year. What are you, a mere First Affiliated Hospital, compared to those famous hospitals in Yandu? I'm an expert certified by the General Administration of Health, and I'll be nominated for academician during the Spring Festival. What can you ants do to me?!"
Arrogant!
Arrogant!
Arrogant!
Reaching the pinnacle in any field grants you the right to challenge others!
This is authority!
Especially in the Great Xia Dynasty of today, the deep-rooted hierarchy of superiors and inferiors, and the importance of seniority in determining social order, are deeply ingrained.
Morality can be set aside; power and status determine everything!
This is the source of Zhang Lanxiang's arrogance!
She's right. Even if she didn't have the surgery, even if she was fired from the First Affiliated Hospital, she could still live a very successful life!
"You!" Yu Xiyan was so angry that her pretty face turned red and she couldn't even speak. She never expected that her junior sister, whom her father praised so highly, would have such a face.
Beep beep beep!
Just then, another alarm sounded in the ICU.
"Doctor, something's wrong! The patient's condition has worsened again. The intracranial pressure has suddenly reached a high-risk threshold, and it appears to be a large-scale, multi-point hemorrhage!"
Upon hearing the medical staff's report, Liu Hua's expression tightened.
Oh no, the worst has happened, there's really no hope now!
"Yingying!"
"daughter!!"
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were sobbing uncontrollably. Wang Juan immediately knelt down before Zhang Lanxiang and pleaded, "Director Zhang, I beg you, please save my daughter!"
"Save her? Hah!" Zhang Lanxiang sneered and shook her head. "In this situation, even surgery wouldn't be enough. Blame your husband; he should start preparing for your daughter's funeral!"
Zhang Lanxiang had a look of smug satisfaction on her face, as if she were enjoying a sense of revenge.
However, at that moment, the sound of footsteps approached.
"Prepare for the worst? Not necessarily! This situation is easy to handle; surgery isn't even necessary!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
A tall and straight figure appeared!
Yu Xiyan was overjoyed, "Dr. Lin!!"
Everyone looked over, and their expressions froze.
Lin Yu's name has now spread throughout the First Affiliated Hospital. Liu Hua, who witnessed the surgery, immediately showed a look of surprise.
"So it's Dr. Lin! Vice Mayor Zhang, maybe your daughter can be saved!"
Zhang Zhiyuan and his wife were taken aback.
A master healer?
Zhang Lanxiang glanced at him disdainfully. "A young upstart, probably not even finished his internship yet? How dare he spout such nonsense! When I became an expert, you were probably still in your mother's womb!"
She knew Yingying's condition perfectly well.
With extensive intracranial hemorrhage, surgery was no longer an option, and the situation was essentially fatal.
Lin Yu remained silent, only giving her a cold glance. "You're a quack doctor, so don't spout nonsense if you have no skills. No, calling you a quack doctor is too kind. You don't deserve to be a doctor at all!"
"How dare you mock me?" Zhang Lanxiang's old face twitched with anger.
None of the graduate or doctoral students she supervises would dare to talk back to her. This young man actually dared to make sarcastic remarks on the spot. Where does he put his face?
She was so angry that she immediately raised her hand to slap him.
Snap!
However, to his surprise, he got a huge beating first.
Ouch!
Zhang Lanxiang stumbled and fell to the ground, glaring at Lin Yu through gritted teeth, "You dare hit me? Believe me, I can have someone put in a word and blacklist you! I'll make sure you can't even find a job!"
"Block me?"
Lin Yu looked disdainful and walked straight towards the ICU, leaving behind only a casual remark, "I'll settle the score with you after I've saved the child!"
