The Golden-Eyed Life of a Security Guard

At the entrance of the People's Hospital lobby, where people were coming and going, two grown men started arguing, which quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Gu Yuebai disliked being watched by others. Moreover, he and Lin Wei had nothing going on, but because Li Jue was jealous, he was unintentionally dragged into the emotional vortex between the two of them, which made him even more uncomfortable.

He coldly watched Li Jue's irrational roar and said indifferently, "Dr. Li, first of all, let me make this very clear: I have no connection with Dr. Lin. She came to learn acupuncture, and I taught her medicine, nothing more. Secondly, I understand your feelings. I, too, have had my love taken away from me before."

Gu Yuebai took a slight step forward, looking directly at Li Jue with an arrogant and unyielding expression. "However, Dr. Li, the crux of the matter still lies with you, with Dr. Lin. Today, I have made myself very clear. In the future, I hope Dr. Li will not make any more unreasonable demands."

The words "unreasonable" completely ignited Li Jue's anger. He waved his hand, pointing his finger at Gu Yuebai, almost poking Gu Yuebai's nose.

"I'm being unreasonable? If you hadn't come to the hospital, would Lin Wei have ignored me? It's all because of you. Your appearance has changed Lin Wei's heart."

Just as Li Jue was going hysterical, Lin Wei walked out of the hall, bypassing the naturally separated crowd. She walked to Gu Yuebai's side, but not to his actual side.

However, that seems to have already indicated an attitude.

She stared at Li Jue, her eyes filled with undisguised disgust, and said to him in a stiff tone, "Li Jue, what are you doing? Ever since I came to the People's Hospital, you've been following me around like a shadow, bothering me every day."

"We're all in the same hospital, and sometimes I don't want things to get so ugly. We see each other all the time, so I'm trying to save you some face. But since things have escalated, I might as well make things clear. Li Jue, get this straight, I'm not one of yours. Who I talk to and who I'm with is my own business."

As soon as Lin Wei finished speaking, the air froze completely. All color drained from Li Jue's face; his eyes were fixed on Lin Wei's exquisite features, filled with despair.

"No, no, Xiaowei, I... I love you..."

"But I don't love you!" Lin Wei glanced at him coldly. "Also, don't call me Xiao Wei anymore. We're just colleagues. There's no need to call me that so intimately."

These words seemed to plunge Li Jue into hell, and his love for Lin Wei turned into utter heartbreak at that moment.

"No, no, no... I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." Li Jue fled from the hospital as if he were running away.

Lin Wei glanced at Li Jue's retreating figure and gently bit her lip.

Gu Yuebai turned around and saw Song Lan in the hall, looking at him.

He smiled wryly, said nothing, turned around and went back to the hall, walking up to Song Lan.

Song Lan threw herself into Gu Yuebai's arms. Her faint fragrance always intoxicated Gu Yuebai.

Gu Yuebai gently stroked Song Lan's light brown, smooth hair and caressed her beautiful back.

"Did I do the right thing?"

"Um."

Song Lan nodded gently, making a very soft nasal sound.

Lin Wei, standing outside the hospital gate, witnessed the two embracing intimately and felt a pang of sadness. She rushed into the lobby and quickly went upstairs.

This little incident ended quickly.

Gu Yuebai continued to dedicate herself to treating the patients.

A few days later, Gu Yuebai cleared the Yin energy from all the patients' bodies. Some patients with mild symptoms gradually recovered and were discharged from the hospital after taking a few doses of traditional Chinese medicine.

In the dean's office in the main building, Xie Huayi and Zhang Jing stood side by side. Through the glass wall of the office, they could clearly see that people were walking out of the hospital one after another, all looking healthy and happy.

Zhang Jing breathed a sigh of relief. "Great, everything is moving in a positive direction. The patients are finally receiving treatment one after another, and we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

However, Xie Huayi's expression was somewhat gloomy. He said with a hint of regret, "This matter has caused a national sensation, and the central government has called several times to inquire about it. If our hospital had handled this matter on its own, it would have been a huge boost to our reputation. The name of Yuncheng People's Hospital would probably have been known and recognized by the people of the whole country."

Zhang Jing knew exactly what Xie Huayi was thinking.

In his position, political tasks were far more important than actual medical ethics.

For Xie Huayi, he cares more about who handles the matter and whether it benefits the hospital.

"Your position determines your thinking," Zhang Jing understood, there was nothing he could do about it.

"The hospital director doesn't need to force things. At least, our hospital didn't hold back in this incident; we did our best. The higher-ups can see it, the people can see it, and our reputation has been established."

Xie Huayi gave a wry smile; that was all he could think of.

Zhang Jing thought for a moment and then offered a suggestion: "Old Xie, if you really care that much, I have an idea."

"What are your thoughts? Tell me." Xie Huayi turned around, pulled Zhang Jing to sit down on the leather sofa, and poured him a glass of water.

"The hospital has a system for hiring external experts, right? You could just give him that position, publicly announce that he's an external doctor for the hospital, and have Gu Yuebai come to the hospital every week or month to see patients, wouldn't that solve the problem?"

"Brilliant! How come I didn't think of that? Your method is very reliable, I'll do it right away." Xie Huayi's worry turned to joy, and his spirits lifted.

"Wait, Lao Xie, he doesn't have a professional qualification certificate yet. I think you should go to the Municipal Health and Family Planning Institute and get him one first."

Zhang Jing said, pulling Xie Huayi, who was about to run away.

"Oh, it's nothing. I'll let the Health and Family Planning Institute know and have them send a copy over."

This is the power of upper management. Certificates that some people work hard for years to obtain are simply a matter of a word in their eyes.

Just as they reached the door, Xie Huayi turned back. He pulled Zhang Jing aside and said hesitantly, "Well, I think you should talk to him about this. You're closer to him, so it'll be easier for you to discuss it."

Zhang Jing pointed at Xie Huayi and jokingly mocked, "You old Xie, you just can't bring yourself to do it, you have to put on airs. Fine, fine, you're the dean, I'll listen to you. I'll go and talk to him."

Xie Huayi wasn't embarrassed at all. He said seriously, "We're both hospital directors, so there's no hierarchy between us. I'm doing everything for the good of the hospital, you understand."

Coincidentally, Zhang Jing also had something to discuss with Gu Yuebai. Now that the hospital's treatment was over, Gu Yuebai would probably be leaving the hospital soon.

Things should be done sooner rather than later. If Gu Yuebai leaves, his plans will be ruined.

No, he has to go quickly, otherwise it will be even more difficult to say many things once the person leaves.
