Xu Chunliang smiled at her, indicating that everything was fine, and asked her to wait outside.
Cheng Xiaohong had no choice but to leave first.
Zhao Xiaohui glared coldly at Xu Chunliang: "Speak quickly, I don't have time to waste on you."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Before I went to Nanjiang, I visited you at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital."
Zhao Xiaohui frowned: "Is this meaningful?"
"It seems it has been a whole week. If you wanted so-called justice, you would have exposed this matter long ago."
"Do you think I don't dare?"
"Of course you dare, and your profession determines that if you expose this matter, the impact would be significant, causing incalculable losses to Changxing."
Zhao Xiaohui said, "You know that. Before I completely lose hope in Changxing, you'd better agree to my conditions."
"You are a smart person and very well aware that once this matter is exposed, you will never get the compensation you expect."
"I don't care."
"You might not care about money, but what about your reputation? A well-known host being admitted to the hospital due to an ectopic pregnancy would certainly become a hot news item in Dongzhou. By the way, you haven't married yet, right?"
Zhao Xiaohui was taken aback. Before this, she had never taken Xu Chunliang seriously. What could a young man do? But when Xu Chunliang said this, she suddenly realized that he had found her weakness.
"It's a different era now. I have a fiancé, and we are getting married next year."
Xu Chunliang said, "You are somewhat in the entertainment industry, and you can't be unaware of the public's gossip. The public is most interested in such matters. If they don't know, it's fine, but once it spreads, all sorts of versions will come out."
"What do you mean?"
"Things may not develop as you imagine. If someone uses this matter to create negative news, the impact on you would be significant."
Zhao Xiaohui glared at Xu Chunliang. Xu Chunliang smiled at her, and this smile became incredibly annoying in her eyes. She really wanted this guy to get out of her sight immediately, but she ultimately suppressed this thought.
"Changxing will suffer greater losses."
Xu Chunliang glanced toward the kitchen, where Zhao Xiaohui's mother was eavesdropping. Zhao Xiaohui also noticed and angrily said, "Mom, do you have nothing else to do?"
The old lady, who was very wary of her daughter, quickly hid in the kitchen.
"Changxing is a public entity, and you are a private individual. No matter how great the loss to Changxing, the public will bear it. If your reputation is damaged, you will have to bear it yourself. Your industry is special; a small matter can ruin a person's future. Miss Zhao, you are so young and excellent, and you will surely have a bright future. If this matter affects your future, wouldn't it be a loss?"
Zhao Xiaohui bit her lip. This guy was too difficult to deal with. She should have had a lawyer present. She still resisted: "I believe everyone will distinguish right from wrong."
"Miss Zhao, you will understand in the future that right and wrong are not important. Not everything needs to be argued to the death. In the end, both sides will be hurt, and the losses will be mutual. What's the point for you?"
Xu Chunliang lowered his voice: "To be frank, your relationship with Chen Jianxin is not as good as you say. These days, even married couples can betray each other, let alone you who haven't even registered your marriage. What if..."
Zhao Xiaohui's face turned pale. Xu Chunliang's words completely threw her off balance. What had this guy discovered? What was he hinting at?
Xu Chunliang was initially just suspicious, but seeing Zhao Xiaohui's expression now, his suspicions were almost confirmed. There was no need to point it out. If Zhao Xiaohui insisted on a fight to the death, he had a strategy and knew where to start.
Zhao Xiaohui finally calmed down and lowered her voice: "What do you want?"
Xu Chunliang said, "I am not interested in Miss Zhao's private life. I just want to give you and Changxing a fair deal. The conditions you proposed, our hospital can basically agree to, but we hope you can make appropriate adjustments to the amount based on the actual situation. Miss Zhao, as the saying goes: don't use all your power, don't enjoy all your blessings, don't take all the advantages, and don't use all your intelligence."
Zhao Xiaohui bit her lip hard. Xu Chunliang's words felt like heavy punches to her heart.
Xu Chunliang leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked confident. He believed he had completely controlled the situation.
After a fierce internal struggle, Zhao Xiaohui finally said, "One million yuan."
Xu Chunliang shook his head. The concession was significant, but not enough to satisfy him. Three million and one million were both exorbitant demands.
Zhao Xiaohui sighed, "Forget it, thirty thousand, according to your hospital's terms."
Xu Chunliang still shook his head.
Zhao Xiaohui was taken aback, "Don't be too greedy!" She thought, "You tell me not to take all the advantages, but now you are clearly taking advantage of me."
Xu Chunliang said, "Thirty thousand is not much for you, and Changxing can accept it. Since I came here, I can't leave empty-handed. Perhaps we can become friends in the future."
Zhao Xiaohui had no desire to be friends with him. This guy was a devil, and he had her figured out. Zhao Xiaohui was smart, and Xu Chunliang was clearly determined to achieve his goals. She had no chance of winning against him.
Zhao Xiaohui said, "Friends?"
Xu Chunliang nodded: "Mutual help. You help me solve this problem today, and I will sincerely help you when you encounter trouble in the future."
Zhao Xiaohui looked at Xu Chunliang, wanting to say she didn't need his help, but she didn't have the courage to say it. Although it was only their second meeting, she felt this person was not simple. He was right; thirty thousand was not much, and she had already given up three million. Why should she fuss over thirty thousand? Giving up a small part of the benefit to gain a friend she didn't understand?
Zhao Xiaohui realized this was a gamble. How much was this friend worth?
Twenty thousand? Ten thousand? The numbers in her mind were quickly rejected. Once she decided to make a concession, her mindset suddenly became calm. She lowered her head, thought for a moment, and when she looked up again, her eyes were as calm as a lake in autumn: "Since we are friends, I'll leave this matter to you to arrange."
Xu Chunliang smiled brightly, impressed by Zhao Xiaohui's intelligence: "Rest assured, I will handle it according to the standard, not necessarily to your satisfaction, but I can guarantee fairness."
Zhao Xiaohui sighed, "Men's promises are often not kept."
Xu Chunliang took out his phone: "Add me on WeChat, let's have a drink sometime."
No one thought Zhao Xiaohui could be convinced so easily. Even the hospital director, Zhao Feiyang, thought this matter was quite difficult. As long as it could be resolved, spending fifty thousand was acceptable.
The outcome of the matter left everyone speechless. Zhao Xiaohui made a significant concession, reducing the compensation from three million to thirty thousand.
Cheng Xiaohong shared this good news with others, emphasizing that Xu Chunliang had resolved the matter with his charm, joking that even a popular female host couldn't resist him.
Xu Chunliang's exceptional ability highlighted the incompetence of others. Huang Lide was particularly embarrassed, and even more so was the deputy director, Yan Huiyi, who had feigned illness to avoid responsibility.
When he heard that Xu Chunliang had successfully resolved the dispute, Yan Huiyi's illness miraculously recovered. After hearing the report, he praised Xu Chunliang highly.
Facts speak louder than words. Huang Lide and Yang Zhenggang had to admit that Xu Chunliang indeed had a knack for handling medical disputes. They discussed repeatedly but couldn't figure out why Zhao Xiaohui had suddenly changed her attitude, which was completely unscientific.
They also secretly asked Cheng Xiaohong, who was even more confused. Although she went with Xu Chunliang to see Zhao Xiaohui, the change in Zhao Xiaohui's attitude happened during their private meeting. She didn't know what had happened and asked Xu Chunliang, who simply replied that he had reasoned with her and that Zhao Xiaohui was a reasonable person.
The medical department had to handle new disputes almost every day, all of which were similar, differing only in scale.
Yu Mo felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders when she heard the final resolution. This dispute had been like a mountain on her heart, and if it hadn't been resolved, she would have been on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Yu Mo admitted that she was primarily responsible for this dispute and apologized to Zhao Xiaohui.
Although the matter with Zhao Xiaohui was resolved smoothly, the hospital could not treat it as if it had never happened. Yu Mo's performance and position allowances for six months were deducted, and the same was done for the ultrasound doctor, Cao Jing, who was also responsible. Cao Jing had already passed the intermediate exam and was waiting for the hospital to hire her, but the hiring was delayed due to this matter.
The head of the functional inspection department, Wang Zhaogang, was also responsible and had his performance and position allowances for two months deducted.
No one protested. Yu Mo, upon learning that Xu Chunliang had resolved the matter, was filled with gratitude and specially asked her sister, Yu Li, to organize a dinner to invite Xu Chunliang.
Although the outcome of Zhao Xiaohui's matter was relatively ideal, Zhao Feiyang saw the hidden dangers in Changxing from this incident. He personally led the formation of two quality control groups, planning to conduct a one-month quality control inspection throughout the hospital. Deputy Director Qin Guoliang was appointed as the head of the first quality control group, and the medical department, as an indispensable part of the quality control work, also had someone selected for the quality control group.
This person should have been the head of the medical department. Everyone thought that since Xu Chunliang was currently in charge of the medical department and had successfully resolved Zhao Xiaohui's dispute, it was natural for him to be selected for the quality control group. However, when the list was announced, it was Huang Lide who was selected, even making Huang Lide himself doubt if the leadership had made a mistake.
