The Chief Minister’s Ferocious Wife

Chapter 91 - 91 Not Gonna Let It Slide



91 Not Gonna Let It Slide

The medical hall was dead silent.

Those who echoed the tongue-lashing at Zhao Chuchu earlier bowed their heads and pretended that they had never said those words.

Zhao Chuchu turned her gaze at the doctor in charge. “I remember all of you who joined in the admonishment. Don’t you ever think you can escape this by pretending nothing has happened! Apologize now, or don’t regret it later… Make your choice.”

The doctor in charge reddened, contending. “Isn’t it normal that we won’t believe the words from a girl your age? Childbirth has always been life-threatening. Besides, that woman appeared to have stopped breathing already just now. I was just hoping they could rest in peace…”

“You couldn’t save someone, but you would stop others from doing so as well? Doctor, that was two human lives! Even if you weren’t capable, it didn’t mean others couldn’t do it! Shouldn’t you apologize for starting defamation against me when you didn’t know the truth?”

“The fact that you saved them was nothing but a fluke. Why would you have to be aggressive like this now? Young lady, it’d be good for your well-being if you didn’t drive me into a corner.”

“So, does that mean you won’t apologize at all? It serves me right to be accused when I was saving lives. Doctor, being a senior doesn’t make you right by default.”

“Y-You… think you’re peerless just because you saved someone by chance? Young lady, medical skill has nothing to do with luck! If I have to say, no one in Yuanjiang County has better skills than me! I’d suggest that you go easy on others.”

Not only was the doctor would not admit his fault stubbornly, but he would also presume on his seniority.

The rest of the people also thought that Zhao Chuchu was being impertinent for someone of her age.

So, they parroted the doctor and admonished, “Young lady, no one can escape the suffering of illnesses and diseases. If you offend Doctor Tian now, you’re essentially cutting the chance to ask for favors from him in the future.”

“Doctor Tian is indeed the best doctor we have in our county. If he thought the woman couldn’t be saved, so be it. No one knows what sort of way you’d used to save them. Who knows if the woman would die later and all you could save was only the child? A motherless child is forlorn. Letting the child reunite with its late parent would be better!”

“Sigh. Young women nowadays think they are capable just because they got lucky. Doctor Tian, we believe in you. We witnessed it earlier and knew you didn’t refuse to save the parturient woman on purpose. She stopped breathing, after all. Who knows why a certain person is cornering you relentlessly like this? I guess she’s going after the money?”

Upon hearing that, the countenance of the child’s father turned red. “This young lady is someone I’m greatly indebted to! I won’t let you speak of her like that!”

Zhao Chuchu played a smile and asked, “So, I take it that the rest of you won’t apologize as well?”

The crowd condemned Zhao Chuchu for not being lenient and accosted the doctor.

Zhao Chuchu turned to look at the owner. “Do you agree with them?”

The owner mumbled, “Young lady, it’s good that you’ve saved the patients. It was a misunderstanding just now. Now that it is all cleared up, why don’t we let bygones be bygones?”

At that, Zhao Chuchu nodded. “Well, if you say so.”

Someone sniffed. “Isn’t it good that you know your place? Why did you have to stir up—”

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Chuchu interrupted. “But I’m not going to let it slide. I’ve remembered all your faces.”

After hearing her declaration, fear struck all of their hearts for reasons unknown.

“I heard that a pregnant woman is suffering from difficult labor. Is she still alive?” An elderly doctor carrying a medicine box on his back could be seen panting while making his way through the crowd. “Hey, how’s the pregnant woman… Eh? Chuchu, what are you doing here?”

Everyone’s eyes were on him. Wasn’t he Doctor Lu?

Did he know Zhao Chuchu?

Doctor Tian then questioned with a stern look. “Lu, what is your business here at Spring Medical Hall?”

Doctor Lu paid him no heed and approached Zhao Chuchu. “You’ve saved the pregnant lady, right?”
