Chapter 303: Chapter 303: Too Much of a Big Shot_1
Although that’s what he thought in his heart,
having their suggestion rejected by their daughter left the old couple feeling extremely displeased.
They were thinking about finding something else to nitpick about.
Aha!
Liang Xin looked around and suddenly thought of a plan.
She crossed her legs, starting to find fault with a dissatisfied air.
"Incompetent people just can’t be relied upon! My daughter is sick, shouldn’t she be staying in a top-tier hospital’s luxury ward?"
"Look at this place, what kind of dump is this? Small and low-grade. The medical level isn’t up to par, and the service is lacking."
"It’s just too shabby! How is this fitting for my daughter, the chairman of a conglomerate? I must give that waste a piece of my mind!"
"With no money for a good hospital, you can’t let my daughter suffer this indignity!"
Knowing her mother was making a fuss again, Su Yueru shook her head, "Mom, this hospital is owned by Ye Fei. We have our own hospital, why would I go somewhere else?"
"What? This hospital is owned by Ye Fei?"
Su Wanli stood up, his face showing disbelief.
"Yes. Haven’t you seen that the hospital’s name includes mine?"
"We thought it was a coincidence, and after all this time..."
Suddenly realizing something, the expression on Su Wanli’s face immediately soured.
"Yueru! That waste knows nothing about running a hospital. If you’ve invested in it, isn’t all the money going down the drain?"
Liang Xin, equally infuriated, stamped her foot, "You child, how could you not discuss such a big decision with us?"
"Investing such a sum in that waste is like giving gold to dung beetles. Do you have too much money and nowhere to spend it?"
Su Yueru sighed heavily, "Dad, Mom. The money for the hospital was all invested by Ye Fei himself. Not a penny from the Su family was used."
The parents refused to believe it, shaking their heads repeatedly.
"Where would that loser get so much money to open a hospital? If it wasn’t for your secret help, it would have been impossible!"
Su Yueru, not wanting her parents to keep looking down on Ye Fei, tried to explain, "It really has nothing to do with me. Remember last time Ye Fei provided key intelligence to the War Department and received a reward? That’s what he used for the investment!"
Actually, that’s what Ye Fei told Su Yueru as well.
But mention of this made the old couple even angrier.
Slam!
Su Wanli slammed the table, "Oh, so now that waste has gotten bold! He received such a large sum of money and didn’t even give a word to the family, just presumptuously used it all up?"
Liang Xin also fumed, "Exactly! Do they think we, the old couple, are dead? What audacity!"
Su Yueru said seriously, "Dad, Mom! The money Ye Fei earned with his life. How he wants to use it is his freedom, and we have no right to interfere!"
"And, Yueru Medical Hall is Ye Fei’s property, with absolutely no connection to the Su family! So please don’t even think about it."
Seeing that their daughter was firm in her stance, the old couple abandoned the idea.
They then spoke with disdainful and dismissive tones, "Oh my! Yueru, what do you take your parents for? That small clinic isn’t even as big as our company’s bathroom. Do you think we would covet it?"
"That’s good."
After saying this, Su Yueru wanted to stand up and step out for a moment.
Then remembering that the ensuite bathroom had broken down that morning, she went to the communal one in the hallway instead.
No sooner had Su Yueru left the room than Liang Xin couldn’t hold back her disdain, "See what I mean, what a lousy place, even a private toilet is in disrepair."
"With such poor conditions, it can hardly compare with the big hospitals in the city!"
Su Wanli also joined in to criticize, "Exactly, and just look at who the dean is. With that loser’s capabilities, if he could manage a hospital well, I’d write my Su surname backwards!"
While they were talking, Li Mingzhen came to make rounds.
Noticing that Su Yueru wasn’t in the room and there were two strangers present, Li Mingzhen muttered curiously, "Where is Mrs. Ye?"
"Gone to the public restroom!" Liang Xin replied irritably.
"May I ask who the two of you are?"
"Tsk, you don’t even know who we are, and you still have the nerve to work here?"
Seeing that the two were quite aggressive in their talk, Li Mingzhen felt displeased, but still maintained tremendous restraint.
"I am all ears."
Liang Xin huffed, standing tall, "We are the real bosses of this hospital!"
A twinkle of amusement flashed in Li Mingzhen’s eyes, "As far as I know, there is only one boss of Yueru Medical Hall, a promising young man by the surname of Ye. May I know your distinguished surnames?"
Su Wanli snorted, "That Ye you’re talking about, that’s our family’s useless son-in-law! So now you know our distinguished surnames!"
Li Mingzhen hastily offered respect, "So it’s Mr. Su and Mrs. Su! Apologies for the oversight."
Liang Xin scrutinized Li Mingzhen from head to toe, and noticing his white lab coat, her eyebrows furrowed, "Are you a doctor?"
Although Li Mingzhen felt annoyed with the two of them, for Ye Fei’s sake he still tried to be very polite.
"Indeed."
"What’s your age, if I may ask?"
"I am seventy-three."
"Seventy-three?!"
Su Wanli exclaimed in shock, gnashing his teeth in anger.
"No offense, but at your age, can you still practice medicine properly? Aren’t you afraid of misdiagnosing someone and causing trouble for the clinic?"
After berating him, Su Wanli turned to complain to Liang Xin.
"I’ve always said that Ye Fei is good for nothing but trouble, haven’t I? There you have it."
"Is he blind or does he have a brain defect, hiring someone your age to treat people? That’s just waiting for a disaster to strike. And then our Su family will have to clean up his mess!"
Liang Xin nodded vigorously in agreement, and then dismissed Li Mingzhen with a wave, "You don’t need to come to work tomorrow, you’re fired."
