Then, she realized that she said the wrong thing and corrected herself immediately, "What I meant was, how can you make an assumption like this? No one told me what to do, I'm telling the truth."
"Oh, the truth? What's the truth? You're not feeling well, right? Are you dizzy?"
"Yes, I think it's an after effect from the surgery. After all… you're not a doctor, you're just a nurse. It's despicable of you to experiment on me and my child."
"Ms. Yuan Fenfen, right? Nowadays, medical equipment is quite advanced. You said that you are dizzy and are experiencing side effects. You know that we need to perform a thorough exam on you, right? It's just like when murderers kill someone, they insist that they were insane. We can't just believe anything you say, and you will need proof to back up your allegations."
The patient fell silent upon hearing what Huo Mian said.
"I know that you're not like that. You were there that night, you know what happened. You were bleeding out and needed a blood transfusion. At the time no one was there to perform the surgery, and your husband knelt on the floor, begging me to do it. As the on-call nurse, I didn't want a patient to die in front of me. I only agreed to the surgery because I was confident in my skills. Moreover, I knew that if I performed the surgery, it might come back and bite me like it did today. However, I can't believe that you, the patient, would act like this as well. I don't expect you to thank me, but you can't wrong me, do you understand?"
The patient seemed moved by what Huo Mian said…
Huo Mian could tell that she was struggling…
Huo Mian continued, "I know that it's not easy being a woman. This is your second child, right? Your husband was really angry when he found out that it was a girl, and your in-laws didn't even come to the hospital to check up on you."
The patient looked up in surprise; Huo Mian's speculation was correct.
"I don't know much about your family background, but your brother kept bringing up the topic of compensation. It seems like he wants to take the opportunity to obtain a large amount of money. Your husband doesn't seem like the type to mastermind something like this. I heard that you guys hired a lawyer, so my question is this: who is instigating all of this behind the scenes?"
"I…" The patient looked at Huo Mian in awe.
Every sentence Huo Mian said went straight to her heart…
"No one instigated anything, it's not what you think."
"Ms. Yuan Fenfen, please have a heart. I don't want to say anything overbearing, but I need to tell you that the gods up there are watching. I don't expect anything in return for saving you and your child, but you wronging me today has negatively affected me and the hospital. Therefore, I hope that you can stop before it's too late. If you want compensation, I can pay you out of my own pocket. But please do not discredit the hospital. Our director is an extremely respectable man, and I don't want my so-called heroism to affect him, is that okay?"
Huo Mian knew that this family wanted nothing more than money…
If they really needed it, then she was happy to pay them if they agreed to shut the whole thing down quietly.
However, if things became worse, it would affect the hospital's reputation; then, she would feel even more guilty.
The patient seemed to be moved. With tears in her eyes, she said, "I didn't want to do this, but…"
However, before she could finish, the door was smashed open.
Then, Huo Mian saw the patient's husband by the door. He began yelling at her, "Why are you here? Are you here to threaten my wife? You're an evil nurse with no heart, I swear I'm going to sue you and this hospital. Don't even think about settling this with a few thousand yuan. Our lawyer said that the hospital has to pay us millions in compensation, or else no one's getting off so easy!"
"When you knelt on the floor and begged me to save your wife that night, your attitude was nothing like this." Huo Mian looked at the patient's husband with a cold stare.
