Chapter 155: Failure to Meet Expectations
"I know you are Captain Zhang's wife. The so-called power is no longer worth mentioning to you."
At that moment, Wei Chenglu, who had been relatively calm, finally changed his expression.
"How do you know about your relationship with Captain Zhang? Who told you?"
"Is this kind of information surprising? My family members are also cadres. Isn't it normal for them to know about important people around them and their families?"
Ruan Chuxia shrugged indifferently.
"Besides, I think you know who my husband is, right? After all, it's not a secret."
After hearing this, Wei Chenglu's face was slightly stunned, and he pursed his lips and fell into silence.
Her expression was complicated.
After a moment, she stood up, picked up her bag, and said, "That's all for today. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me."
She prepared to get up and leave.
Ruan Chuxia was about to notify the next patient to come in for treatment and called out Cheng Meifang's name when Wei Chenglu suddenly turned around and said seriously, "Doctor Ruan, are you free on Sunday? I'd like to invite you to my house to sit down and chat alone."
Then she added another sentence, as if she was worried that Ruan Chuxia would misunderstand or be unwilling to go.
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to work for free. We can discuss the compensation."
In fact, even if there is no extra compensation, it is not a big deal in Ruan Chuxia's mind.
Especially because she is Captain Zhang's wife.
Once the other party makes an invitation, even if it is just a polite remark, she will not easily refuse.
"No problem. Where is your home? I can just come find you when the time comes."
She nodded and agreed readily.
"Just come with our nanny Cheng Meifang," Wei Chenglu replied. "You don't need to bother anyone else. With her around, you won't get lost."
…
The next person called was Cheng Meifang.
Her purpose today is to have a follow-up examination.
As soon as she walked into the door of the clinic, she smiled and greeted Ruan Chuxia warmly.
"Oh, Xiao Ruan, it's really thanks to you that I'm recovering much better now! If I had known the effect would be so obvious, I should have listened to your advice and started this treatment earlier."
Ruan Chuxia responded with a smile upon hearing this.
"This isn't my credit. It's mainly because you cooperated well. If you didn't actively exercise, doctors alone wouldn't be able to help you recover so quickly."
"That's right!"
Cheng Meifang nodded repeatedly, and said with a slightly proud tone, "From that day on, I have been insisting on doing the rehabilitation exercises you mentioned, without missing a single day. But Lao Wang is different..."
As she spoke, the joy on her face was gradually replaced by a hint of loss, and her voice became lower.
When she mentioned her husband Wang Huapeng, she couldn't help but frown.
Although Wang Huapeng had promised to actively cooperate with the treatment when he came to see the doctor last time.
But his training and medication were sporadic and he did not follow a complete treatment plan at all.
Because of this, the results always fall short of expectations.
Thinking of this, she blurted out, "Xiao Ruan, you are a professional doctor. Lao Wang has always been very stubborn. Do you have any good ideas to make him take his medicine on time and be more obedient?"
She paused, then added another sentence.
"He's not very willing to come now, saying it's useless. Xiao Ruan, do you think there's any other way?"
This question really stumped Ruan Chuxia.
She's just a doctor, not omnipotent.
"Well..." She hesitated and spoke with a slightly uneasy tone, "This has to be agreed to by Brother Wang."
She paused, trying to make her words clearer.
"No matter how many solutions we come up with, it all comes down to whether he's truly willing to change. If he's unwilling to cooperate, no matter how hard we try, it's all in vain."
Cheng Meifang was sitting opposite and after hearing what Ruan Chuxia said, she did not ask any further questions.
Instead, she sighed quietly. In fact, she also understood this truth.
"Forget it, I won't say anymore."
She waved her hand slightly and said in a different tone.
"Besides coming here for a follow-up visit today, I also wanted to ask if you and Zhiyu came to my house for dinner tonight?"
She said with a smile on her face.
"After all, you've cured my illness, so I can finally put my worries to rest."
He paused and continued.
"Plus, the New Year is coming soon, so Lao Wang and I thought we could have a meal together. It would be lively and add some atmosphere to the New Year."
She hadn't said anything else yet, as she had received so many things from Ruan Chuxia.
I would feel really bad if I didn't treat her to a meal again.
Even though her family was living in poverty and she had to calculate the price of tofu before buying it at the market, she was unwilling to owe anyone a favor.
This debt of favor weighed heavily on her heart, and she would only feel at ease after it was settled.
"Sister-in-law, you are too polite..."
Ruan Chuxia subconsciously wanted to refuse.
She never likes to trouble others.
"Don't talk so much, just tell me whether you are free or not!"
Before she could react, Cheng Meifang grabbed her hand.
She is usually gentle and easy-going, but at this moment she rarely shows her strong side.
"have……"
Ruan Chuxia had just opened her mouth but hadn't had time to finish her words.
Before she could finish, Cheng Meifang made the decision.
"Okay then, it's settled."
"It just so happens that Miss Wei gave me a day off today. I'll go get the medicine and then go back to cook."
When she said this, a look of relief appeared on her face.
Wei Chenglu is a very particular person. She doesn't like others calling her sister or aunt, as she thinks it's a bit tacky.
Cheng Meifang has long been accustomed to this, so she usually calls her "Miss Wei" in a proper manner.
Seeing that Ruan Chuxia agreed, Cheng Meifang stood up with a satisfied smile on her face and her tone became lighter.
"Then I'll be leaving first. Remember to come over for dinner later."
…
By the time all matters were dealt with, it was already late.
Ruan Chuxia worked another half hour of overtime today and was so busy that she almost forgot about time.
When she returned to the doctor's office, she found it deserted.
My colleagues have left one after another.
The only remaining light illuminated Zhou Lin who was sitting in the corner.
He was writing something on a piece of paper with his head down, looking extremely focused.
"Director Zhou, why haven't you finished get off work yet?"
Ruan Chuxia walked closer and greeted Zhou Lin with a smile.
Hearing her voice, Zhou Lin raised his head from behind his desk and his eyes fell on her.
"You're working overtime until this hour. If I don't work harder, I'm afraid I'll be fired tomorrow, right?"
After hearing this, Ruan Chuxia had some idea in her mind.
The number of patients here has been increasing recently.
In contrast, the number of patients in Director Zhou's clinic has decreased significantly.
Although the salary of the medical office is mainly based on basic salary.
However, the monthly performance bonus and year-end share are linked to the number of patients seen.
However, she knew in her heart that the patient specifically asked her to see the doctor.
