Chapter 26

Cai Rongjuan had never seen such an arrogant young person. She always considered herself to have status and position in Changxing. Not to mention the younger generation, even the hospital director Gu Houyi would be polite to her. After all, she was one of Changxing's trademarks. This was simply too disrespectful.

Cai Rongjuan was so angry that she trembled all over. She found the phone number of the head of the medical department, Zhou Wenbin, and called him.

As soon as Zhou Wenbin answered the phone, Cai Rongjuan's anger hit him like a wave: "Zhou Wenbin, what kind of people do you have in your medical department? How do you usually teach your subordinates..."

"I'm in a meeting!" Zhou Wenbin quickly hung up. As soon as he hung up, his phone rang again. Zhou Wenbin decided not to answer it. Because of the last incident with Wang Dalei, he had a strong aversion to Tan Guoliang. Now, Tan Guoliang's wife was in trouble. Regardless of who was at fault, Cai Rongjuan, why are you taking your anger out on me? You don't have the qualifications to come and accuse me.

Xu Chunliang returned to the medical department. Cheng Xiaohong saw him and hurriedly went up to him: "Is Director Cai coming?"

"She can come or not, we don't owe her anything."

Cheng Xiaohong was a bit anxious: "It's very troublesome."

"What's so troublesome? We'll deal with it as it comes. First, we need to know what her demands are, and we'll help convey them." Xu Chunliang didn't want to get involved in this matter and went back to his office to continue reading.

Soon, he heard the noise from the mediation room next door. Cheng Xiaohong couldn't handle Tong Meili, who was very agitated.

"Xu Chunliang, come quickly!"

Hearing Cheng Xiaohong's plea for help, Xu Chunliang hurried over. The scene before him was shocking.

Tong Meili had climbed onto the window sill of the mediation room, pretending to jump out of the window.

Tong Meili screamed: "You are all a pack of snakes and rats, colluding with each other! You disfigured me and refuse to take responsibility. How can I live the rest of my life? I don't want to live anymore!"

Cheng Xiaohong was terrified: "Sister Tong, can we talk about it after you come down?"

"I won't come down. If Changxing Hospital doesn't give me a clear answer today, I'll jump from here."

Xu Chunliang called the security department. This time, the security department didn't dare to delay. The head of the department, Yu Xiangdong, led more than ten security guards to the scene quickly.

Xu Chunliang didn't say a word at the scene. By intuition, he judged that Tong Meili definitely wouldn't jump. She was just trying to create a bigger impact. The more she did this, the less likely she was to commit suicide. Besides, the medical department was on the second floor, and jumping from there wouldn't be fatal.

Yu Xiangdong asked for the situation and first sent a few security guards downstairs to check. Then he called Cai Rongjuan, asking her to come over quickly. If something happened, it would be very difficult to resolve.

Hearing that Tong Meili was going to jump, Cai Rongjuan naturally didn't dare to delay and hurried to the scene in a panic.

Yu Xiangdong also contacted the police. Before the police arrived, Zhou Wenbin had already rushed over. Although the medical dispute was in the cosmetic department, since she had climbed onto the window of the medical department, the medical department would also bear responsibility if she really jumped.

Xu Chunliang maintained a detached attitude. He had no good feelings towards Cai Rongjuan. You are so arrogant, why don't you just stay away?

Cai Rongjuan, who was now losing her composure, forced a smile on her usually arrogant face: "Tong Meili, come down and talk."

Tong Meili said: "Life is meaningless. I don't want to live anymore. You disfigured me."

Cai Rongjuan said: "You look fine."

"Bullshit! You are lying with your eyes open. What did you do to my eyes? One is big, and one is small. Can't you see? Are you blind?"

Cai Rongjuan, being publicly insulted, didn't dare to retort, fearing that she might accidentally provoke Tong Meili. What if she really jumped?

Zhou Wenbin said: "Ms. Tong Meili, we are all here. Come down and talk. What problem can't be discussed? What problem can't be solved? You need to tell us your demands."

Tong Meili had no intention of jumping. She just wanted to create an impact. Seeing that everyone had been mobilized, her goal was achieved. She came down from the window sill: "I can't die. If I die, won't it be a favor to you?"

Since the crisis was over, there was no need to call the police. Yu Xiangdong quickly contacted them and told them not to come. He also realized that this was just a self-directed drama by Tong Meili.

Tong Meili sat back on the sofa. The tea had already cooled, and she asked Cheng Xiaohong to get her a new cup of water.

Zhou Wenbin talked with Yu Xiangdong and asked him to take the security guards outside. He didn't want to make too much noise and cause a stir in the hospital, which would lead to criticism. He understood that today's incident was already big enough, and the hospital director must have known. He didn't know how he would be criticized later.

Closing the door of the mediation room, Tong Meili looked at Cai Rongjuan and said: "Director Cai, you are really busy."

"I have always been busy with work. Is it meaningful to cause such a disturbance?"

"It's not meaningful. Life is meaningless. If I die one day, it will be your fault. Even if I turn into a vengeful ghost, I won't let you go."

Cai Rongjuan shivered. She had never realized how difficult Tong Meili was to deal with.

Zhou Wenbin advised them to stay calm. The main purpose of the meeting was to resolve the problem. Tong Meili could directly state her dissatisfaction in front of everyone.

Tong Meili said: "How many times do I have to say it? She made a surgical mistake, and my double eyelids are now uneven. Since the surgery, my eyes have been itchy and painful, and my vision is blurry. I can't even close my eyes. My life has been ruined by her."

Cai Rongjuan refused to admit her accusations: "Where are they uneven? If you think there was a problem with the surgery, you can get an expert to evaluate it. If the evaluation confirms my responsibility, I won't avoid it."

"Who doesn't know that you are all in cahoots? Your evaluation is not credible."

"If you don't trust our hospital's evaluation, you can go to the city or even the province. If you still don't trust the provincial evaluation, you can find a more authoritative institution. Whether it was a surgical mistake is not up to you to decide." Cai Rongjuan stood her ground on professional grounds.

Zhou Wenbin, who was also a surgeon, though not in the cosmetic field, believed that Tong Meili's double eyelid surgery was successful. There was no unevenness. The itching, pain, and blurred vision were subjective feelings that needed to be verified.

"Ms. Tong Meili, what are your specific demands?" Zhou Wenbin wanted to understand Tong Meili's bottom line. In most medical disputes, the majority of patients demand compensation. He guessed that Tong Meili would be the same.

Tong Meili sneered: "What do you mean? Do you think I am deliberately extorting your hospital? Seeking compensation? My family is not short of money." She raised her hand and showed her jade bracelet: "This bracelet is worth more than your lifetime salary."

Cai Rongjuan glanced at it and thought it wasn't that valuable. She also liked jade, and this bracelet was indeed of ice quality, but the price wasn't exaggerated. From her interactions with Tong Meili, this woman was vulgar and from a nouveau riche family. Her husband was in the construction business, a typical nouveau riche. But to say that a bracelet was worth her lifetime salary? That was underestimating doctors. In reality, Tong Meili's family might not be as wealthy as she claimed.

Zhou Wenbin asked: "What are your specific demands?"

Tong Meili said: "I want Changxing Hospital to admit the surgical mistake and the irreparable damage it has caused me. I want the person responsible to publicly apologize and compensate me for all the physical and mental losses caused by this surgery, and I reserve the right to pursue further responsibility!"

Zhou Wenbin took a deep breath. This woman was clearly well-prepared. She didn't mention a specific amount, but from her words, it was clear that she was seeking a significant sum.

Cai Rongjuan believed that Tong Meili was deliberately causing trouble. She had performed countless double eyelid surgeries with almost no mistakes. Tong Meili's surgery should have been successful. To say that she disfigured her was ridiculous. Given her original appearance, how much damage could she have done?

Concerned about her reputation, Cai Rongjuan refused to take responsibility. She coldly said: "Tong Meili, if you insist on this, you can get an evaluation. If that doesn't work, you can sue us."

Tong Meili said: "Is this your hospital's attitude? I've heard that Changxing's medical ethics are low, and now I've experienced it."

Cai Rongjuan said: "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving. I have patients waiting for me." She stood up to leave, but Tong Meili grabbed her: "Don't think you can leave until we resolve this!"

Cai Rongjuan, who was not one to be pushed around, shouted: "Let go!" She shook her arm, and Tong Meili's hand was thrown off. Unexpectedly, Tong Meili's jade bracelet flew out of her hand and shattered on the ground.

Everyone present was stunned. Tong Meili screamed, knelt down, and picked up the broken bracelet, heartbroken: "Cai Rongjuan, you will compensate me for my bracelet!"
