Chapter 119 The Protective Old Lady

Early next morning

Meng Qingyi slowly woke up on the sofa. She stood up, first walked forward to take a look at the old lady's condition, then glanced around the ward, but did not find Chu Jingyan.

She was just about to make a phone call when Chu Jingyan came out of the bathroom. Perhaps because he didn't get enough rest, his face looked a little dejected.

Chu Jingyan glanced at her and said, "Go wash your face. Jiang Lin will bring breakfast over soon."

Jiang Feng has rested for a while and has now started to return to work. The two brothers divided the work. Jiang Feng is still responsible for picking up and dropping off Chu Yan, while Jiang Lin is responsible for Chu Jingyan's daily life.

Meng Qingyi also looked tired. She went to the bathroom and tidied up briefly. After she came out, she had breakfast and went back to the office.

When she left, she met He Zixuan and Gu Nanjue who came to visit her. After saying hello, she hurried to the office.

Just arrived at the office, before I even sat down, Lai Yu rushed in in a hurry.

"Something happened." Lai Yu looked anxious.

Meng Qingyi was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Someone accused our hospital online of killing his child."

Meng Qingyi frowned. The doctor-patient relationship is already tense, and any slight disturbance will cause an uproar.

"Do you know who posted this?" Lai Yu frowned.

Meng Qingyi looked at her with a worried look on her face, "Who?"

"That's the man who wanted to beat his wife in our department that day."

Meng Qingyi frowned even more tightly.

"His wife was pregnant. She was supposed to be saved that day, but was only discharged from the hospital yesterday morning. No one knew what happened. When she was sent back by ambulance at noon, she had miscarried."

"For this, he made a big scene yesterday, saying that our hospital was irresponsible and asked us to pay for his child's life."

"This is simply far-fetched talk. His wife was discharged from the hospital so her physical indicators must be normal. Why is he still blaming the hospital for this?" Meng Qingyi clenched her fingers.

"You also know that netizens nowadays are all very quick to believe whatever they hear, and they start to take sides without knowing the truth of the matter."

"He is the weaker party, so public opinion is naturally on his side."

"There are still many reporters gathered at the hospital entrance."

Meng Qingyi sighed, "What's his purpose in making such a fuss?"

"From what he said, he wants the hospital to lose money." Lai Yu said speechlessly.

Meng Qingyi snorted coldly, "The responsibilities haven't even been clarified yet, and he's asking for too much?"

Lai Yu nodded, "The hospital will be very busy if it is entangled with such a scoundrel."

Meng Qingyi didn't care much about the disputes among medical personnel, nor did she pay attention to the online public opinion. After all, it was very common and someone would naturally deal with it.

These days, she goes to work as usual, and goes to the ward to take care of the old lady after get off work.

The old lady had already regained consciousness. Although she was still unable to get out of bed, her complexion was much better than before.

Meng Qingyi was on duty last night and stayed in the ward after finishing her morning shift.

Chu Jingyan had something to do, so he went to the company and left Jiang Feng to look after the child. Jiang Feng was guarding outside, and only the old lady and Meng Qingyi were in the ward.

"Grandma." Meng Qingyi scooped a spoonful of porridge and fed it to the old lady.

The old lady had just had surgery and could only eat liquid food.

The old lady smiled and enjoyed Meng Qingyi's care.

In the past few days, apart from Gu Nanjue, He Zixuan and others who came to visit, no one else came. After all, the old lady's surgery was not widely publicized.

The old lady finished her porridge and was about to lie down to rest when there was a knock on the ward door.

Meng Qingyi frowned slightly. Logically, no one should come. She glanced at the old lady, who was also puzzled. "Who is it?"

Meng Qingyi curled her lips and stood up to open the door.

"Miss Meng."

Meng Qingyi was a little surprised. The person who came was Zhong Zixuan. "Miss Zhong."

"I heard that grandma was in the hospital, so I came to visit her." Zhong Zixuan was holding a fruit basket in one hand and a gift bag in the other, with flowers in her arms. She bypassed Meng Qingyi and glanced straight inside.

Meng Qingyi looked at her and said, "Come in."

Meng Qingyi saw that she had a lot of things and wanted to help, but Zhong Zixuan pretended not to see.

Zhong Zixuan snorted in her heart with disdain. Did he really think she was the mistress of the Chu family? But she still kept a smile on her face, wearing ten-centimeter high heels and walking seductively.

"Grandma." Zhong Zixuan walked in and called softly.

The old lady leaned against the bed, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes, "Zixuan."

"What's wrong with you?" The old lady didn't finish her words, but Zhong Zixuan understood.

Zhong Zixuan smiled lightly, "I heard that grandma was in the hospital, so I came to see her."

"Grandma, are you feeling better?" Zhong Zixuan put down the fruit basket consciously.

The old lady just nodded lightly and said meaningfully, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."

Zhong Zixuan pursed her lips and suddenly turned to look at Meng Qingyi, "Ms. Meng."

"Find a vase and put the flowers in it."

Although Meng Qingyi was not used to her bossy tone, she took into consideration that she was here to see the old lady and said, "Yes."

Meng Qingyi wanted to reach out to take the flowers, but the old lady frowned and said, "No need."

"Zixuan, I have rhinitis. You can take the flowers back." The old lady rubbed her nose with her hand, "Also, I don't like roses."

Zhong Zixuan was startled for a moment, then reacted, with an unnatural smile on her face, "I was inconsiderate and forgot that grandma doesn't like roses."

Didn't the old lady like red roses the most? Or was she just not happy with how she treated Meng Qingyi like a servant and supported her?

The old lady raised her eyebrows slightly, "It's okay."

"Yiyi, don't stand there. You've been taking care of me all day and you must be tired. Let Jingyan come back to take care of the rest."

The old lady waved to Meng Qingyi with a kind tone.

Meng Qingyi was shocked. She hadn't done anything today, but she didn't reject the old lady's kindness.

"Grandma, where is my second brother?" Zhong Zixuan looked around and asked.

The old lady blinked and said calmly, "I went to the company."

In the old lady's eyes, Zhong Zixuan's purpose of coming was not to visit the patient at all. It seemed that he had other intentions.

Zhong Zixuan paused, "That's really unfortunate."

"I was thinking about making amends to my second brother this time."

The old lady was not interested, Zhong Zixuan continued: "Last time I accidentally soiled my second brother's clothes, so this time I bought him a new set and gave it back to him."

"I don't think Jing Yan will come for a while, so go and do whatever you have to do."

"Just let Yiyi pass the clothes on." The old lady had a blank expression.

Hearing this, the smile on Zhong Zixuan's face froze for a moment. After a few seconds, she smiled again, "I'm fine. I'd better wait for my second brother to come back and apologize to him in person."

The old lady frowned. It seemed that this person would not leave until he saw Chu Jingyan.

She glanced at Meng Qingyi from the corner of her eye. Meng Qingyi looked calm and didn't seem to mind at all. She didn't know whether Meng Qingyi was clear about Zhong Zixuan's intention or not.
