Chapter 72 7 million compensation
The next afternoon, Lin Youqian dragged Qi Xu back to Yonghe Hospital. "Let's go, let's go meet this scheming Dean Cailang."
This time, Lin Youqian, in the capacity of a soldier and assisted by police workers, requested to have a dialogue with the hospital's highest authority, the director.
"Haha, Colonel Lin, your presence is a great honor to our hospital. I have long admired you!"
The dean's surname was Fang Huai, and he was well over 50, not yet 60. He had a square face, broad ears, thick eyebrows, and kind eyes. At first glance, one would think he was a kind and amiable man.
Lin Youqian did not ask him about the hospital accident and prohibited items, but chatted with him about all sorts of things like a friend.
"President Fang has a noble character and adheres to medical ethics. I, Lin, have long admired him!"
Lin Youqian deliberately pronounced the words "noble" and "medical ethics" very slowly and heavily, and the irony was self-evident.
But Fang Huai always had a smile on his face and a peaceful expression, as if he didn't understand the irony.
"I wonder why Colonel Lin asked me to discuss this with him today? Could it be that there's some connection between our South City Hospital and the Lake City military?"
Lin Youqian's dark eyes were like a sharp scimitar, hooking straight into Dean Fang's throat.
"The military has no connection with Yonghe Hospital. But my mother-in-law is deeply involved with your hospital."
"She died in your hospital? Shouldn't you give my wife an explanation?"
Lin Youqian was trying to trick him to see his reaction.
Sure enough, a hint of fear flashed across the eyes of this kind-looking dean. But his unchanging smile remained fixed on his face, as solid as a mountain. He even pretended to be dumbfounded and asked.
"A terrible shooting and arson incident occurred in the hospital yesterday, resulting in the tragic loss of over a dozen patients. I wonder who Colonel Lin's mother-in-law is?"
Lin Youqian slowly tapped three words on the table with his fingers. "An, Yun, Xi!"
Fang Huai's expression darkened even more.
He listened to a brief report from his subordinates about An Yunxi's potion leak. But yesterday, so much had happened. He only knew that a powerful individual, while visiting An Yunxi, had discovered the leak. He had no time or opportunity to learn the details, and chaos reigned below.
Later, in order to prevent the truth from being exposed, he ordered people to light a fire in the intensive care unit. He thought that all the evidence was burned in the fireworks, but he still felt uneasy.
"Ms. An is a critically ill patient in our hospital. She has no movement awareness and cannot take care of herself. Yesterday's fire happened on the 5th floor. I'm afraid Ms. An has met with misfortune. Please accept our condolences!"
"Regarding the specific compensation issue, our hospital's legal department has already contacted the patient's family. Could it be that Mrs. Lin doesn't know about it?"
Qi Xu certainly didn't know. The hospital had already transferred the compensation to Qi Wangxing, but Qi Wangxing hadn't said a word, not even a sliver of information.
"I am my mother's legal heir, why didn't you notify me?"
Not to mention notifying him, before this, Fang Huai had no idea Qi Xu existed, and that she had married such a powerful husband. Otherwise, even if he had 100 guts, he wouldn't dare to cooperate with that person to attack An Yunxi.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Lin. Ms. An's guardian is listed as her husband, Mr. Qi. Therefore, it's reasonable for us to transfer the compensation to Mr. Qi."
Qi Xu doesn't care about money at all now, but she also wants to know how the hospital will deal with the aftermath.
"How much is my mother's compensation? I also have a share of this money."
Fang Huai gestured a number. "Seven million."
Seven million? This is an astronomical figure for an average family. No wonder the families of the deceased are unwilling to pursue responsibility.
According to the legal compensation amount, the maximum compensation for such an accident involving the injury or death of a seriously ill patient is 500,000 or 600,000 yuan. Moreover, according to official information, this accident was caused by arson and has nothing to do with the hospital, so the hospital is not responsible.
However, Yonghe Hospital not only took the initiative to provide compensation, but also provided ten times the amount of compensation. The money was received in just one day.
This is totally inconsistent with their style of work. As the saying goes, when things are out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on.
Lin Youqian patted Qi Xu's hand, signaling her to stop talking and let him ask the questions.
"Excuse me, Dean Fang, is the compensation for all the deceased patients this time 7 million?"
Of course not. The compensation for other patients is based on normal standards and is only 580,000.
The reason why Qi Wangxing was given such a large sum of money was, firstly, because that bastard had a big appetite. Secondly, because Dean Fang knew that Lin Youqian was not easy to deal with, he urgently needed to get the accident compensation from Qi Wangxing to settle the divorce agreement once and for all.
As long as Qi Wangxing signed the settlement agreement, he would not have to bear any responsibility even if the truth was revealed in the future.
Fang Huai took out a silk handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He said smoothly.
"Every patient's situation is different, so the compensation amount will vary. As for the specific amount, it is a confidential matter of our hospital and I cannot disclose it."
Lin Youqian's lips curled up into an evil smile, and his sharp and ruthless eyes made Fang Huai shudder.
He has found a breakthrough that will allow this old sly guy to show his true colors.
"I don't want to know how your hospital compensated each patient's family based on their situation. I just want to know the names and identities of all the patients involved in this accident, as well as their families' contact information. Could you please provide me with that, Dean Fang?"
Fang Huai was so angry that his face turned pale. He was a dean after all. If it weren't for Lin Youqian's powerful background, he would have slammed the table long ago.
"Colonel Lin. Patient information is confidential in any hospital and cannot be viewed by unauthorized personnel, even military officials."
Lin Youqian smiled and sat in a defiant and arrogant manner.
"Oh, really! This matter concerns human life. The police can participate openly. If Dean Fang refuses, I'm afraid it won't work!"
Fang Huai was completely confused and had no idea what he meant.
"Colonel Lin, what do you mean?"
Lin Youqian sipped his tea slowly, his tone was very slow, but extremely lethal.
"Dean Fang, didn't you go to the secret room on the fifth floor to check? There's one body missing?"
"Would you like to guess who is missing? Where is that person now? Is he dead or alive?"
Lin Youqian didn't say anything, and Fang Huai was busy cleaning up the evidence, so he hadn't noticed the problem yet. The bodies in there had long been burned to charcoal, so how could he tell who was who?
Fang Huai was already furious, and his previous kind expression gradually turned into a brutal and ferocious look.
"What do you mean by one is missing? What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?"
Lin Youqian watched him go crazy, his attitude still lazy and arrogant. Especially the mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, which almost drove him crazy.
"As a soldier, I witnessed a fire on the fifth floor of the hospital. Naturally, I couldn't stand by and watch someone die. So, I braved the thick smoke and flames to rescue a patient from inside!"
"Unfortunately, I am very powerful, wealthy, and influential. Therefore, I immediately transferred the patient to Lake City by private plane."
"Currently, the patient is being treated in a military hospital. I don't know who he is or whether he's alive or dead. Therefore, I need to get the information of all the patient's family members so they can come and claim him."
"If the military hospital's medical skills are superb and the patient is saved, it can also save Dean Fang 7 million in compensation."
"Dean Fang, tell me, isn't this a truly auspicious event?"
