Dean Wu glanced at her approvingly and said, "Very good, then you can go back now, and when this matter is satisfactorily resolved, I will ask Secretary Sun to inform you to come back to work." ”

Tang Xiao shook his head and said, "Dean Wu, I won't leave the hospital, but I won't be a turtle with a shrunken head." ”

Dean Wu asked incredulously, "Doctor Tang, what do you mean by this?"

Tang smiled and said lightly: "Dean Wu, I think I have made it very clear, I will return to my own post and do what I have to do, instead of running away." ”

Dean Wu put the tea cup in his hand on the table heavily: "You don't even give me face as the dean?" Doctor Tang, if the hospital needs you to come forward, why should I let Secretary Sun stay outside and bring you over as soon as you show up?"

Tang smiled and said, "Dean Wu, I am very grateful for your arrangement, but——"

"Doctor Tang," Dean Wu interrupted Tang Xiao, and said in a stern tone, "It's not impossible to let you go back to work now, but do you know what kind of situation you are facing now?"

Tang Xiao's eyes were calm and calm, and he looked back at Dean Wu fearlessly: "No matter what the situation, I will face it." ”

Dean Wu was secretly shocked, he didn't expect this slender and delicate little woman to have such courage. After all, do you still underestimate her...... However, as the old saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but he, the head of the first hospital, can't let her hit the muzzle.

"Dr. Tang, I'm afraid you're underestimating the current situation. Dean Wu said slowly, "You have also seen the family members of the patients wearing linen and filial piety at the entrance of the hospital, but do you think this is all there is to it? They are far more difficult than you imagined, including now, there are still relatives of patients outside your office. The patients on that floor have now been urgently moved to the branch hospital, why? Because they are not only surrounding, but also smashing and looting, can you imagine?"

Tang Xiao's eyes widened slightly, and he secretly clenched his fists and said, "I'm sorry, dean, it's me who caused trouble to the hospital." ”

Dean Wu waved his hand and said, "It's not your fault, I heard the doctors and nurses present about the operation, and you don't have the slightest problem." ”

For Dean Wu's unconditional trust, Tang Xiao felt a little grateful in his heart: "Thank you for trusting me. ”

Dean Wu said, "I trust you, but that doesn't mean the public will believe in you. Dr. Tang, I still say the same thing, you should avoid the limelight first. ”

Tang Xiao insisted: "Dean Wu, I can't do this, if I leave, how will the family hospital deal with those troublemakers? I don't want to drag everyone down because I'm alone." ”

Dean Wu sighed and said, "Doctor Tang, you are a weak woman, tell me how you plan to deal with those troublemakers? Among these people, not only Guo Dazhi's family members, but even professional doctors. I'm afraid they won't give up easily. ”

Tang smiled and said, "If that's the case, I can't go." ”

Dean Wu said, "Doctor Tang, let me tell you the truth, Dr. Zhu has already planned to carry this matter. When the time comes, as long as you say that you did not perform this operation yourself, no one will naturally embarrass you. ”

Tang Xiao was really surprised this time, she looked at Dean Wu in disbelief and said, "Why?"

Dean Wu frowned and said, "What, why?"

Tang Xiao's voice was very eager: "Why does the hospital want Dr. Zhu to bear the blame? I don't agree! This matter has nothing to do with Dr. Zhu, and the chief surgeon is obviously me, so why should I let Dr. Zhu take responsibility? This is not fair!"

"Doctor Tang, I can tell you that this was brought up by Dr. Zhu himself. Dean Wu said.

Tang Xiao was stunned.

Why?

Why did Dr. Chu make this decision?

As if seeing the doubts in Tang Xiao's heart, Dean Wu said: "Actually, I don't know why Dr. Zhu did this, if it is not a family or a reason, if it is a friendship between colleagues, it will not be to this point." But Dr. Tang, whatever he was for, I hope you don't live up to his kindness. After all, from the perspective of the hospital, I don't want an excellent doctor like you, who has great achievements in the future, to be badly affected by this unwarranted disaster. ”

"What about Doctor Zhu?" Tang Xiao suddenly raised his voice and said with an excited expression: "Then can Doctor Zhu die in vain in this incident? What about his future?

Dean Wu said solemnly: "Dr. Zhu himself is not as talented as you in medicine, if this matter can be satisfactorily resolved, it would be best if Dr. Zhu will not be affected in the future, but in case the situation is out of control and Dr. Zhu loses his qualifications, I will also arrange for Dr. Zhu to do other work in the hospital, such as directly entering the administrative level." I think Dr. Chu would be satisfied with this arrangement. ”

"No...... How can this be. Tang Xiao muttered with a disappointed expression, "Should ordinary medical skills be sacrificed in vain, if you can persist to this day, Dr. Zhu must want to be a good doctor in his heart." What's more, Dr. Chu has been working so hard......"

"Doctor Tang, don't be emotional. Dean Wu's serious voice sounded, "Think about it carefully, for patients, if they lose a good doctor like you, who is extremely talented and can definitely go further in the future, is it a great loss? If you stay in the medical field, will you be able to overcome more difficult surgeries and help more patients to relieve pain? I can think of these questions, and Dr. Chu can probably think of them too. As far as I know, Dr. Zhu has always admired you in medicine. If you quit because of this incident, it will be even more difficult for Dr. Chu to accept. ”

Tang Xiao shook his head and said, "No one should be sacrificed. Dean Wu, I'm sorry, I really can't accept this arrangement-"

"Jingle bell bell...... Jingle Bell Bell ......" The landline on Dean Wu's desk suddenly rang loudly, and the conversation between the two had to be temporarily suspended.

"Old Tang, I tried my best, but she didn't agree, I think you have to persuade her personally about this. Dean Wu said to the person on the other end of the phone.

Tang Xiao was stunned when he heard this, and sure enough, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to say something, and Dean Wu quickly handed the receiver to Tang Xiaoxiao, "Doctor Tang, your father called." ”

Tang Xiao slowly stepped forward and silently took the earpiece from Dean Wu's hand.

She didn't know what to say to her father, she had the impression that they hadn't spoken for a long time, and the last time Tang Zhentian talked to her, it was because of her newspaper incident.

I'm afraid she'll let him down and angry again this time.

Although Tang Xiao didn't say a word, Tang Zhentian on the other end of the phone had already begun to roar.

"Tang Xiao, you get back to me immediately! You are not angry, you are really uncomfortable to make such a fuss!!Get back!!Did you hear it?!"

“…… I'm not going back. After a long time, Tang Xiao said lightly.

"What did you say?!Tell me again!!"

"Dad, I'm not going back, I'll solve my own affairs by myself, and I won't bother you. ”

Tang Xiao's voice was not loud, but his tone was extremely resolute.

"It's against you!!" Tang Zhentian's roar was like thunder through the earpiece, Tang Xiao remembered that when he was a child, if he did anything that was not in line with Tang Zhentian's wishes, he would also yell at her like this.

At that time she was very afraid of him, always trembling, timid and humble, as soon as he began to roar at her, she could not help but tremble and give in unconditionally.

It was as if the shadow still hung over her head. Maybe it was her instigation, even at this moment, she was a little weak and her heart was like a drum, but she told herself - Tang Xiao, you have grown up, it is time to make decisions for yourself. Don't be afraid, Don laughs.

"Dad, I'm not going back. You dissipate your anger, you didn't care about me before, and you shouldn't care about me now. ”

Tang Xiao said quietly.

Tang Zhentian on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent, and after a while, Tang Zhentian said in a stern tone: "Tang Xiao, you come back, let's talk." I couldn't see you for half an hour, so I went to the hospital to look for you in person. If you don't want outsiders to see the joke, you'd better come back to me!"

Tang Xiao was about to say something, but he heard a loud "pop" on the other end of the phone, and it seemed that Tang Zhentian threw the phone angrily.

Tang Xiao smiled helplessly, and Dean Wu patted Tang Xiao's shoulder and said, "Doctor Tang, you better go back quickly, I heard that your father has not been in good health recently, and you don't want him to get sick, right?" ”

Tang Xiao was stunned, Tang Zhentian has always been in good health, not depressed, as the director of a private hospital, he often does the surgery himself, and he does most of the day's surgery, in Tang Xiao's memory, Tang Zhentian seems to be a giant who will never stand.

Dean Wu sighed at this time and said, "People are old. ”

Tang Xiao lowered his head and said, "I know, thank you Dean Wu for your concern." ”

"Go ahead, don't keep your dad waiting too long. Dean Wu said with relief.

Tang Xiao took a taxi to the downstairs of the Tang family's community, looked up at the familiar window, and sighed softly.

The weather was overcast and it seemed like it was about to rain. Tang Xiao gathered the beige knitted cardigan on his body, raised his feet and walked upstairs.

Tang Xiao took a deep breath and rang the doorbell, and soon, the door was opened, and her stepmother Li Yan stood at the door and said with a smile: "Yo, rare guest." ”

Tang Xiao didn't bother to say anything more to her, glanced at her and walked straight inside.

Tang Zhentian sat on the sofa in the living room, his face was gloomy, and he looked like a black cloud pressing down on the city.

"Dad, I'm back. Tang Xiao said as he stood a meter in front of him.

Tang Zhentian snorted coldly and said, "I still know to come back." ”

Tang Xiao was silent.

Tang Zhentian said in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on with the operation?"

"The operation was a success. Tang smiled and said lightly.

"Success?" Tang Zhentian sneered, "The operation was successful, but the patient died, Tang Xiao, you are a good doctor!"

Li Yan sneered next to her, Tang Zhentian swept over with a cold look, Li Yan didn't dare to laugh, but said: "I heard that people's family members have gone to the hospital, oops, smile, you have lost your father's face this time!"

Tang Xiao said calmly: "It's none of your business. ”

"Yo, what did you say?" Li Yan didn't follow, pouting and said, "You kid, I'm your mother anyway, what's none of my business?"

Tang Xiao lowered his head, and a faint and almost imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "I didn't be a mother who pry her best friend's wall." Why do you put gold on your face? ”

"Tang Xiao!" Tang Zhentian slapped the coffee table suddenly, causing the cups and cups on the coffee table to make a noise, "Apologize to your mother!"

Li Yan stared at Tang Xiao hatefully, but a smug and pitying smile appeared on her face-

It's as if she's a grasshopper she can crush to death with her feet.

Tang Xiao bit his lip and said, "I won't apologize." Dad, if it's okay, I'll go first. ”

"You dare!" Tang Zhentian let out a loud shout.

Tang Xiao looked at Tang Zhentian, his eyes were indifferent, but he was tired: "Dad, to be honest, I don't know what you asked me to come back for." Is it interesting just to scold me? Or to let me be ridiculed by her? ”

Tang Zhentian stared at Tang Xiao, as if he wanted to have a seizure, but he endured it, Tang Xiao waited for a new round of storms, but the result was unexpected, Tang Zhentian waved his hand at Li Yan and said, "You go back to the room first." I'll talk to Tang Xiao alone. ”

Li Yan was a little unwilling, but she didn't dare to disobey Tang Zhentian's words, glared at Tang Xiao and went upstairs.

Only Tang Zhentian and Tang Xiao were left in the living room. Tang Xiao was silent, just hoping that Tang Zhentian would finish his seizure soon and return to the hospital soon.

"Tang Xiao, do I owe you Tang Zhentian in my last life? I gave birth to such an unfilial daughter as you. Tang Zhentian said with emotion.

Tang Xiao grinned, feeling that Tang Zhentian's words had a very comedic effect.

Who owes whom?

Instead, she thought that she owed Tang Zhentian, Li Yan, and Tang Mi a lot of debts in her previous life.

Seeing that Tang Xiao didn't speak, Tang Zhentian continued: "I know that you have not been close to me since you were a child, and your character is ...... I don't get close to anyone, I Tang Zhentian has no father-daughter relationship with you, and I don't force it. But I'm at this age, and I want to have someone to inherit the mantle. Tang Xiao, I can't look down on you anywhere else, but the medical skills have inherited me, and even your Dean Wu has praised you several times in front of me. ”

Tang Xiao'an listened quietly, and a large list of ellipses appeared in his heart, only to feel that Tang Zhentian's words were too much to complain, and he didn't know where to spit out.

"Your sister Tang Mi, she has been pampered since she was a child, she can't suffer much, and she is not the material for studying medicine, only you can take over my hospital in the future, you listen to me, don't be strong, this matter should be held by outsiders, you stay well, and after a few more years, when I retire, my position as the dean is yours, and when the time comes, Tang Mi and Li Yan will have to count on you to support them." ”

Tang Xiao: "......"

Tang Zhentian thinks that his arrangement is very reasonable, which not only satisfies Tang Xiao, but also enables Tang Mi and Li Yan to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives, and he, the eldest parent, can't be more fair! ”

Tang Xiao looked up at Tang Zhentian and said with a smile: "Dad, after all, your arrangement sounds good." ”

Tang Zhentian saw Tang Xiao's rare smile, and he was immediately in a good mood: "Work hard, you will be the youngest hospital director in Chengbei in the future." ”

Tang sneered and said, "So, I have to continue to be a cow and a horse for Tang Mi and Li Yan for the rest of my life, right?"

"What do you mean?!" Tang Zhentian glared at Tang Xiao, his eyes were very terrifying.

Tang smiled and got up and said, "Speaking of which, you still think about them." When did you ask me if I would like to?"

Tang Zhentian said angrily: "The hospital is going to give it to you, what are you still dissatisfied with?!"

Tang smiled and said, "I'm not rare. You give it to Tang Mi. As the saying goes, take people softly, if I really become your so-called dean, I'm afraid that every penny I earn will be used for the two ancestors, Tang Mi and Li Yan, Dad, you really think about them, you really love them. Unfortunately, my mom and I never had this blessing. Therefore, I will not be able to inherit your mantle. ”

Tang Zhentian snorted coldly: "Tang Xiao, you have the same virtue as your mother." I don't know what it means to take it when I see it!"

Tang Xiao finally got angry, she stared at Tang Zhentian and said: "Yes, my mother and I don't know how to accept when you see it, if your so-called "accept when you see it", even if it is a bone that you give, I have to pick it up and gnaw it, and then help your junior and junior children take care of the home!"

"You!!" Tang Zhentian trembled, reached out and picked up the teacup next to him and threw it towards Tang Xiao: "You get out of here!!"

Tang Xiao didn't dodge, and let the teacup smash straight into her chest like that.

It was as if someone had punched her in the face.

It hurts.

She was a little out of breath from the pain.

"Smack-"

The teacup fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

It's like the sound of a broken heart.

If the heart is broken, there will be a sound.

Tang Xiao took a deep breath, smiled lightly, and said, "Okay, I'll get out of the house mellowly." ”

"Tang Xiao, if you get out of this door, you will no longer be my daughter Tang Zhentian in the future!" Tang Zhentian said angrily.

He felt that he had done his best enough to Tang Xiao, but he didn't understand why she was so disobedient?

Since she was a child, she has been yin and yang, not as innocent and lively as ordinary little girls, especially in the comparison of Tang Mi, she is as young as a little old lady with a stomach full of worries.

He didn't like this eldest daughter.

No adult likes a child like that.

But he didn't know how the child, who didn't look like a child, became like that.

Who wouldn't want to be innocent, lively and cute?

However, only children who are carefully cared for by their parents, who are helped when they fall, who are coaxed when they cry, and who are hungry and who are handed candy are qualified like that.

Innocent, lively and cute, not every child has the right.

If a person has suffered injustice since she was a child and is forced to be strong, how can she be innocent, lively and cute.

How can she pretend to be innocent and cute in front of her father, who doesn't care about her so much and betrays her mother?

Tang Zhentian hated Tang Xiao, but he never thought that the reason why Tang Xiao became like that was that he had the most unshirkable responsibility.

Tang Xiao glanced at Tang Zhentian and said indifferently: "Okay, over the years, since my mother was kicked out by you, when have you ever been your daughter." ”
