Chapter 408 Adding fuel to the fire
It was past 9:30 in the evening when Yu Zhiming just returned to his residence in Zijinyuan when Gu Qingning brought him a steaming and fragrant casserole.
Black chicken soup!
Yu Zhiming took a look and found that in addition to a black chicken weighing about two pounds, there were also side dishes and ingredients such as sea cucumber, abalone, wolfberry, jujube, and American ginseng in the casserole.
"Zhi Ming, I stewed it for more than three hours. My grandma said that the chicken and soup stewed this way are very nutritious and delicious."
"It is especially suitable for those who are weak to replenish their vitality."
Yu Zhiming corrected him solemnly, "Qing Ning, I'm not weak, I'm just a little tired these past few days."
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "I understand, I understand. I'm just tired, not weak, hehe..."
Yu Zhiming glared at the guy and said, "Such a big casserole, I can't finish it all by myself."
"Sister, bring three big bowls over and let's eat together..."
Yu Zhiming gave Fourth Sister and Qing Ning each a large chicken leg, sea cucumber, abalone, and more than half a bowl of soup.
He bought the rest by himself.
The three of them sat next to each other at the dining table and ate and drank happily.
Gu Qingning reported: "Tomorrow, Xiaobo said that they will move into the house in Junshan Mansion to start renovations."
"Do you have any other decoration suggestions?"
Yu Zhiming took a sip of soup, swallowed the food, and shook his head. "As for the renovation, it's up to you. For me, as long as the bedroom is soundproofed, everything's fine."
After a pause, he asked again: "How much money is left in my bank account?"
Gu Qingning thought for a moment and said, "Less than 260,000."
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "Give Xiaobo 200,000 first."
"Although he said he would do the renovation for free, he probably doesn't have much money right now."
"Don't let him rip Peter to pay Paul and delay other people's renovations."
Gu Qingning, with her greasy lips and bulging cheeks, was not in a position to speak, so she just nodded.
After a while, Yu Xiangwan whispered, "Old Five, a few people came to the cafeteria today and said they wanted to top up 10,000 yuan."
"I told them they could top up 10,000, but the health check-up activity was cancelled, so I could only give them a 10-point coupon."
"They kept insisting on it and almost got into a fight."
Yu Zhiming instructed: "Sister, write a notice and post it in a conspicuous place in the store."
Yu Xiangwan sipped his soup and said, "There are notices posted inside and outside the store."
"I guess they're scalpers working for the hospital, hoping to get a spot for a checkup by making a scene."
After a pause, she chuckled and said, "Nowadays, those who come to top up are real diners."
"They all topped up in amounts of 500, 1,000 or 2,000. Twenty-five people topped up today."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "With word of mouth, the catering industry has developed at a very fast pace."
Yu Xiangwan said proudly, "Zhang Bai and I are also very confident about the future development of the small canteen and short-term rental apartments. We must work at full speed and do a great job."
Yu Zhiming gave her another chicken wing and said, "Sister, you need to eat more too."
He looked at Gu Qingning again.
Gu Qingning quickly shook her head and said, "I don't want it anymore. I'm already nearly ten pounds heavier than before."
"Oh, right..."
"My fourth cousin's uncle called me this morning and reminded us not to forget our physical examination this Sunday."
Yu Xiangwan asked curiously, "Is he still my uncle? Does that mean they haven't divorced yet?"
Gu Qingning shook her head again and said, "I haven't heard any further news about their divorce."
"However, I heard that my aunt is currently suing my uncle's mistress."
"They said they wanted to get back all the valuables that the uncle had given to the mistress over the past few years, including the car, jewelry, clothes, bags, cash, etc."
"Can it be recovered?" Yu Zhiming was a little surprised.
Yu Xiangwan explained: "Yes, it is possible."
"If one spouse gives property to another without the spouse's permission, the spouse has the right to get it back."
"There have been several court cases where wives have successfully recovered property from their mistresses."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but say with joy: "It seems that being a mistress isn't easy these days."
"In the end, there's a risk of being left with nothing and being left with nothing."
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "As the saying goes, the higher the virtue, the higher the evil. For a professional mistress, she must have kept up with the times and come up with evasive strategies..."
The three of them were chatting and unknowingly finished their chicken and soup.
Yu Zhiming was a little full, so he stayed in the living room and continued to chat and laugh with his fourth sister and Qingning.
But after a while, he received a call from Qi Yue.
"You and Director Liu Yun had a public argument?"
"Teacher, did she complain to you?"
Yu Zhiming blurted out this question and immediately felt that it was impossible.
They are not quarreling with children, so they don't need adults to judge or save face.
He asked again: "Teacher, did Zhou Mo tell you?"
Qi Yue hummed softly during the call: "She told me that, you don't have to have any opinion on her."
"Zhou Mo also told me that this matter has become a hot topic in several groups within the hospital."
"The main thing is that the content was a bit outrageous."
"Some people say that if you threaten Director Liu by pointing your finger at her, she'll have no chance of continuing her position as department director."
"You have to get her off."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but grin and said, "Who would make up such nonsense? How could I possibly say such a thing?"
Qi Yue said slowly on the phone: "Zhou Mo has already told me the details of the dispute and the whole story."
"Director Liu was at fault in this matter, and I shouldn't have questioned your medical ethics and sense of responsibility."
"But, Zhiming, you shouldn't question her ability and qualifications to be the department director."
Yu Zhiming defended himself, "Teacher, there's no good talk in an argument. Besides, why can she take advantage of her seniority to accuse me and not allow me to fight back?"
"That doesn't make sense."
Yu Zhiming asked again, "Teacher, didn't you tell me to only take one step back?"
"If someone is so tactless as to push your luck further, don't be lenient and even take back the step you took earlier."
Qi Yue replied with a depressed tone: "You are really quick in applying what you have learned."
"The problem is, Director Liu is not only your colleague, but also a senior expert in the hospital and your medical predecessor."
"Your relentless and unyielding attitude will make people think you're cocky and overconfident, completely forgetting your own business."
Yu Zhiming was unconvinced and said, "So what if she is a senior?"
"Do I have to obey her arrangements and endure her anger and bullying?"
Qi Yue on the other end of the phone was speechless and helpless.
Not to mention the early years, medical predecessors almost had the same authority as teachers and fathers, and the younger generations could only obey and do as they were told.
Even now, a senior medical expert and department director asks a young doctor to help him with his work.
The young doctor will not only not think that this is harsh treatment, but will also think that it is recognition and cultivation, and will work tirelessly to complete the tasks assigned by his medical predecessors.
The problem is that Yu Zhiming is not an ordinary young doctor.
Yu Zhiming's solid medical skills and rapidly growing reputation make him a unique figure in Huashan Hospital.
Even Dean Li Yao has to treat Yu Zhiming with caution.
Qi Yue himself also needs to adjust his attitude towards Yu Zhiming and cannot simply treat him as a student.
There are some things he needs to discuss with Yu Zhiming.
However, Liu Yun was rather stubborn and continued to order Yu Zhiming around and assign him tasks as usual.
This undoubtedly made Yu Zhiming, whose status had increased dramatically and who was now different from before, feel uncomfortable and resistant.
"Zhiming..."
Qi Yue introduced her over the phone, saying, "Director Liu was a great beauty when she was young, and she was also very outstanding in all aspects."
"Let's put it this way, she has been spoiled all the way to now."
"This also led her to develop a strong and somewhat unbridled work style, because everyone else would give in to her."
Qi Yue added, "Of course, Director Liu is not being unreasonable. He knows his limits."
"Otherwise, the hospital leaders wouldn't trust her with the management of such a large and important gynecology department."
Yu Zhiming said slowly: "Teacher, not everyone gives in to her and accommodates her."
Qi Yue sighed softly, "This time, she has truly learned a lesson from you."
After a pause, Qi Yue said seriously, "Director Liu's work style and personality must have caused a lot of people to accumulate dissatisfaction and resentment."
"If your dispute with her is exposed like this, it's very likely that some people will fan the flames and stir up trouble."
"Perhaps Director Liu's position as department director is really a little unstable."
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "Teacher, if this dispute is the reason she lost her position as department head, the fundamental reason is also her own ability and leadership problems."
"I won't take the blame for this."
"I can only be considered an external factor. The decisive factor is still the internal factor."
Qi Yue said angrily: "Your external factor is as fierce as a hurricane, making it difficult for people to cope with it."
After a moment of silence, Qi Yue said with distress, "Let's wait and see how far this matter will develop after this night of fermentation."
"Zhiming, you also have an idea in your mind."
"Don't wait until tomorrow when someone tries to trick you into saying something and then you rashly express the wrong attitude or say the wrong thing..."
After finishing the call with Teacher Qi, Yu Zhiming faced the concerned gazes of his fourth sister and Qing Ning, and briefly recounted what happened in the evening.
He finally said, "It's just a small dispute, not a fundamental conflict."
Gu Qingning said seriously, "A dispute that could potentially lead to the relocation of department heads is no small matter."
"Zhiming, this matter has really become a big deal. It's not good for her, and it's not good for your reputation either."
"I'm sure many people will think you're arrogant, conceited, and don't take your medical predecessors seriously."
Yu Zhiming said casually, "Let them think whatever they want. I don't depend on them for survival."
"They're really unhappy. It would be better if they didn't come to me for treatment..."
