Perspective Medical Genius Young Master-Chapter 104 Joint Liability

"Director Fang, it’s quite simple! You could ask this highly skilled Doctor Xiao how he came to know the patient named Tan Yunjing! Why is it that as soon as she arrived, she was looking for him?"

Fu Kaiyuan sat below, arms crossed and eyes filled with malice. Although he didn’t know how Xiao Yifei had come to know Tan Yunjing when Xiao collapsed, he had already made some plans against Xiao Yifei based on the discussion he had with Li Entang last night.

Just as Fang Yuan turned to look at Xiao Yifei and before he could speak, Xiao Yifei, who had been silent until now, finally opened his mouth to talk.

Xiao Yifei stood up from his chair, lazily stretched, and looked toward Fu Kaiyuan with an indifferent gaze, speaking calmly, "Indeed, I met Tan Yunjing through Old Master Jiang."

Xiao Yifei wasn’t wrong in what he said; when Tan Yunjing came to the hospital to find him, he didn’t know her, and he formally met her at the charity event hosted by Jiang Mingquan. However, other people who did not understand the situation didn’t see it that way.

"Hmph! Just as I thought! Xiao Yifei must have used Jiang Mingquan’s influence to build his reputation! I knew Xiao Yifei couldn’t possibly have the skill on his own! But he is a clever one, knowing he can’t rely on Jiang Mingquan’s favors for a lifetime! That’s why he came up with such an underhanded scheme to deceive us, just so he could get attention in our hospital!"

Fu Kaiyuan glared coldly at Xiao Yifei. He initially just wanted to stir some trouble for Xiao Yifei, but to his surprise, Xiao did indeed meet Tan Yunjing through Jiang Mingquan. At this moment, Fu Kaiyuan’s mind was filled with images of Nangong Yun taking care of Xiao Yifei, and jealousy ignited within him. "Why is it that when I politely inquire about Nangong Yun’s health she doesn’t care, yet a newcomer like this brat gets her favor!"

"However, he didn’t expect that this time Xiao Yifei went too far! It was too obvious! And we caught on!"

Fu Kaiyuan’s words finally triggered a reaction in Chen Xusheng, who turned to look at Xiao Yifei feeling worried and somewhat distrustful of him.

"Could Xiao really be the despicable person Fu Kaiyuan described? But that can’t be right! I know for a fact that Xiao truly does have some real abilities!"

Chen Xusheng felt conflicted. He didn’t understand why so many people didn’t believe Xiao Yifei and, amidst the widespread distrust, he too began to waver.

Nangong Yun stood on the stage, her beautiful face filled with urgency. She didn’t understand why Xiao Yifei would admit to meeting Tan Yunjing through Jiang Ming, but at this time, she could only feel anxious on Xiao’s behalf. Nonetheless, from beginning to end, she strongly believed in him.

But when Nangong Yun wasn’t looking for trouble, trouble came looking for her.

After scrutinizing the situation, Li Entang finally showed a confident expression, as if everything was under his control. With Wu Shancong’s accidental death, some of Wu’s authority temporarily fell into his hands. At this moment, if he could remove Nangong Yun from the circle, he would immediately become the most powerful deputy director of Shangjing People’s Hospital. And it was at this time that he finally revealed his true agenda hidden behind his targeting of Xiao Yifei.

"Since Doctor Xiao has admitted it, there’s nothing more to say, and we can confirm that Doctor Xiao has used a series of lies to boost his own position, deceiving everyone. I feel that this issue, while not being too serious, isn’t too trivial either, because after all there haven’t been any serious slip-ups, and it could be forgiven. However, we can’t help but think about Deputy Director Nangong’s earnest attempts to protect Doctor Xiao."

Li Entang’s voice emanated slowly, filled with a kindness that belied the chilling malice contained within it aimed at Nangong Yun.

"Was it Vice President Nangong who instructed Doctor Xiao to do this? Honestly speaking, Doctor Xiao indeed does not have much medical skill to speak of. Vice President Nangong seemed so eager to push Doctor Xiao forward; could it be because she thought Doctor Xiao was easy to control and that’s why she has always supported him? Are you so eager for power, Vice President Nangong?"

No sooner had Li Entang finished speaking than Xiao Yifei furrowed his brows forcefully. While attacks against him were somewhat tolerable, as he knew the truth clear in his heart, the indiscriminate accusations against Nangong Yun were something Xiao Yifei found hard to accept. Despite the fact that a future with Nangong Yun was impossible for him, her care for him was something Xiao Yifei could deeply feel.

"Vice President Li! How could you say such things? When have I ever been eager to promote Xiao Yifei? When have I ever been eager to seize power? I just want to do my job well. How can you be so reckless with your words?"

Nangong Yun, infuriated, stamped her foot. With her cool and disdainful nature, how could she possibly stoop to engage in the dirty business—the very thing that made her no match for Li Entang. With just a few words, Nangong Yun felt herself at a loss.

"Oh? How is it not you? When Xiao Yifei became a formal doctor, wasn’t it you who supported him from behind? I’ve also heard rumors from the emergency room that Xiao Yifei was the ’Divine Doctor.’ Without someone pulling the strings behind the scene, how could such rumors about Xiao Yifei come about? Add to that the absurd incident of Xiao Yifei curing lupus. Are you saying you’re not the one behind it? That’s really interesting!"

Li Entang watched Nangong Yun with amusement in his tone, speaking with a light and smiling voice.

"I didn’t! If I say there wasn’t any, then there definitely wasn’t!" Nangong Yun, out of breath with anger, shook her head vehemently and stomped hard on the floor: "You can’t frame me!"

But how could Nangong Yun’s simple defense compare with Li Entang’s seemingly well-founded arguments? The two’s dispute had the entire conference hall buzzing with noise.

"Vice President Nangong, who is so beautiful and earnest, how could she possibly do the things Vice President Li is talking about? It must be a misunderstanding by President Li!"

"That’s not necessarily true! It’s said to know the face is not to know the heart! I think Vice President Nangong’s arguments are well-founded!"

"Alas! How can there be such a mess! In my opinion, all these issues are Xiao Yifei the troublemaker’s fault! Without the strength, he still drags so many others down with him. It’s so infuriating!"

The buzz of discussion beneath the stage reached Fang Yuan’s ears, causing him to frown subtly. His gaze towards Nangong Yun held an unclear meaning, and then he picked up the microphone and spoke in a stern voice: "Enough! We are not here to discuss this matter right now! Since I’ve already returned to the country, what we are discussing now is about the handling of the Xiao Yifei incident! Let’s not talk about anything else! Now, let’s discuss what to do about Xiao Yifei."

Fang Yuan intended to temporarily shelve the matter involving Nangong Yun, so he turned to look at Xiao Yifei with a serious expression and a severe tone: "Doctor Xiao Yifei! Regarding the situation of you deceiving everyone and oppressing colleagues, do you admit it?"

However, with all the prominent doctors from Shangjing People’s Hospital present, how could Li Entang, who thought this the best opportunity to bring down Nangong Yun, possibly give up such a good moment!
