Lin Yuexi quickly stood up and took a step back. A hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She stretched out her hand to stop the woman's impulsive behavior, and shouted at the same time: "Who are you and why are you looking for me? Calm down first and talk nicely!"
But at this time, the woman was already overwhelmed by anger and could not listen to Lin Yuexi's words at all.
She stared at Lin Yuexi with her eyes, as if she wanted to eat her alive, and said loudly, "I am Li Mingyuan's wife Zhou Xiu. You seduced my husband, how can I speak properly..."
After Zhou Xiu finished speaking, she suddenly stretched out her hands, trying to grab Lin Yuexi's collar. Lin Yuexi nimbly dodged to the side, and she missed, and her body staggered forward a few steps due to inertia.
The patient was so frightened by this sudden scene that his face turned pale, his body trembled involuntarily, and he hid aside in panic.
Seeing that his grab missed, Zhou Xiu became even more angry and pounced on Lin Yuexi again with his teeth and claws bared, cursing all kinds of unbearable words.
Seeing Zhou Xiu rushing towards her without any reason, Lin Yuexi knew that it was impossible to reason with her, so she had to be on guard.
The moment Zhou Xiu rushed over again, she dodged sideways and quickly looked around, trying to find something to protect herself. After all, she didn't want to hurt anyone.
Her eyes fell on a pile of heavy medical books on the desk. Taking advantage of the gap in Zhou Xiu's attack, she quickly reached out and grabbed one, and smashed it hard on the ground in front of Zhou Xiu.
There was a muffled "bang" sound. Zhou Xiu was startled by the sudden noise and paused subconsciously.
Lin Yuexi seized this brief opportunity and said loudly: "Zhou Xiu, let's talk it over nicely. If you keep making trouble like this, I will call the police! If things get out of hand, it will be bad for both you and me!"
However, Zhou Xiu had completely lost his mind at this moment. He ignored Lin Yuexi's warning and rushed forward again, roaring.
Just when Zhou Xiu was about to touch Lin Yuexi again, the office door was pushed open and several nurses heard the noise and rushed over to check the situation.
Seeing the chaotic scene in the room, the nurses were stunned at first, then they reacted and quickly stepped forward to grab the woman.
Although the woman struggled hard, several nurses worked together to control her.
Lin Yuexi then breathed a sigh of relief, tidied up her slightly messy hair and clothes, and said to the nurses: "Take her to the empty room next door first, and don't let her affect other patients."
After the nurses took the woman away, Lin Yuexi walked over to the trembling patient and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, it's okay now. I'm sorry to have scared you."
The patient nodded with a slight tremor, and said with a hint of fear in his voice: "I... I have never seen such a scene. I was scared to death."
Lin Yuexi patted the patient's shoulder gently and said, "I'm really sorry. We didn't do our job well and let you encounter this. Please sit down and rest for a while. I'll pour you a glass of water."
Having said that, Lin Yuexi turned around, picked up the kettle, poured a cup of warm water and handed it to the patient.
The patient took the water, drank a few sips, and calmed down a little.
Lin Yuexi looked at the patient and asked with concern: "Are you feeling better? If you still feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me."
The patient put down the glass and said, "I'm just a little nervous, but otherwise I'm fine. Why did that woman do that just now?"
Lin Yuexi sighed helplessly and said, "I'm not sure either. Maybe she has some misunderstanding or a knot in her heart. When she calms down, I'll talk to her and get things clear."
After saying that, he continued to ask about the patient's condition!
Lin Yuexi had just finished looking at the patient's medicine when there was a knock on the office door. Dean Zhao walked in, saw the situation inside the room, and asked, "What's going on? I heard someone is causing trouble here?"
Lin Yuexi briefly recounted what happened. Dean Zhao frowned and said, "How about this! Comrade Yuexi, you don't need to see the doctor today.
This situation today cannot happen again. It will affect the normal order of the hospital and the patients. Go and find out about Zhou Xiu's situation and why she did this."
Lin Yuexi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."
Lin Yuexi came to the empty room next door and saw Zhou Xiu sitting on a chair. She was no longer as excited as before, but still looked angry and dissatisfied.
Lin Yuexi walked up to the woman and asked softly, "Can you calm down and talk to me now? Why do you think I have a relationship with your husband Li Mingyuan?"
"Lin Yuexi, don't act so innocent. It's all spread out there. It's said that when he was in Qinghe Township, you pestered Mingyuan and asked him to take you back to the city.
Later, your parents married you to Lu Cheng, but you were unwilling to accept it and secretly dated him outside. Lu Cheng found out, and then you went to the army and didn't come back for five years." The woman said bitterly.
When Lin Yuexi heard this unfounded slander, she was initially filled with anger, but her past experiences made her calm down quickly. She knew that confronting this woman at this moment would only make the situation more difficult to handle.
She took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Xiu with a firm and gentle gaze, and said slowly: "It seems that you have heard a lot of rumors, but these are not true.
Back in Qinghe Township, it wasn’t me who paid for Li Mingyuan, but Li Mingyuan used sweet words to trick me into doing his laundry and cooking, and even cheated me out of food. ..."
"I don't believe it. When Li Mingyuan and I were arguing this morning, he said, 'If he had married you back then, he wouldn't have to live this life now...' He also said that you liked him very much back then, and if Lu Cheng hadn't intervened, you would have been his wife a long time ago.
Also, ever since I came back from the county hospital that day, he has been punching and kicking me. I have bruises all over my body..."
After Zhou Xiu finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and sure enough, both of his arms were covered in bruises and purples.
When Lin Yuexi saw this, she cursed the man in her heart.
She looked at the wound on Zhou Xiu's arm, feeling angry at Li Mingyuan's behavior, but also sympathetic to Zhou Xiu's experience. She said in a softer tone: "Sister Zhou Xiu, I understand that you are very angry and aggrieved now, but Li Mingyuan and I really don't have the kind of relationship you think.
What happened back then is not what you heard. Li Mingyuan...he may not be as good as you think."
Zhou Xiu was slightly startled, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but she still said stubbornly: "Then why did he say that? Why did he do this to me?"
