Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 542 - 541: How Are You Even a Director?

"Station Head Guo, Wu Shiyi says she's busy tonight and can't make it! I think she's doing it on purpose, hmph, thinking that just because Liu Manman is out of the picture, you wouldn't touch her!" When Liu Manman blamed Wu Shiyi for refusing Xiao Shanshan's request, Xiao Shanshan had already sashayed into Station Head Guo's office, fuming as she tattled on her.

Station Head Guo leaned back in his big chair, resting his hand on his protruding beer belly, squinting his eyes, not saying a word, leaving others guessing what he was thinking.

"Station Head Guo, won't you say something? If it really doesn't work out, I think we should replace her too. That way I don't have to see her and get annoyed," Xiao Shanshan said, sticking closer to him as he remained silent, her voluptuous curves rubbing against his arm.

"Alright! If Wu Shiyi is busy, just find someone else. How about Dong Qiantong?" Station Head Guo suggested, giving Xiao Shanshan's pert and round backside a pat.

Xiao Shanshan, seeing that Station Head Guo was reluctant to make a move on Wu Shiyi, dared not say more. She hummed in agreement, then got up and left his office, swaying her serpentine waist as she went.

As soon as Xiao Shanshan left, Station Head Guo's face turned stormy and unpleasing to look at.

As the head of the station, he felt insulted by Wu Shiyi's refusal to accompany him to the dinner. It was a slap in the face, a challenge to his authority.

However, the "Happy Girl Voice" program was a major highlight for the provincial station, even making Jiangnan Province a leader in entertainment programs nationwide, not to mention the advertising revenue it brought in – a veritable cash cow. Therefore, even though he was quite annoyed, Station Head Guo couldn't afford to make a move on Wu Shiyi after having taken down Liu Manman.

Otherwise, if he were to mess up the program, it would surely have a significant impact on his political achievements and reputation.

It was precisely because of this that Wu Longcai had the leverage to negotiate with him before. Otherwise, as the station head, a single order would have been enough to replace Liu Manman with Xiao Shanshan – what would be the need to go around and cut his budget?

…

"We need to leave an hour earlier this time!" In dorm room 203, He Guizhong was shaving his beard in front of the mirror as he spoke.

"Alright, alright, you're going to shave your chin raw if you keep going," Li Chenyu pushed He Guizhong away, deliberately styling his hair in the mirror, while Lu Lei stood behind Li Chenyu, coolly tossing his flowing "mane" in front of the mirror.

"Come on, let's go. If we don't leave now, we'll only have the back seats left," He Guizhong put down his electric razor and hurried the two who were preening in the mirror.

"Wow, time really flies, huh? Let's go then," Li Chenyu checked the time, realized it was indeed late, and immediately stopped fixing his hair, then headed out the door.

"Hey, boss, what are you still sitting there for? Let's go, or we'll end up sitting in the back again." The three of them were about to leave when they noticed that Ge Dongxu was still sitting in the dorm room, indifferent, so they paused to call him again.

"You guys go ahead, I've got something on tonight and won't be joining," Ge Dongxu said.

"No way, boss, you're skipping the foreign lady's class again. I'm telling you, she's really pretty, really sexy. Just listening to her speak English is a treat!" Li Chenyu and the others, seeing Ge Dongxu wasn't moving, turned back to persuade him.

"I really have something on, you guys go ahead," Ge Dongxu said.

"Alright! It seems like you've truly lost hope in Professor Wu and are unwavering in your commitment!" Li Chenyu said.

"Scram!" Ge Dongxu glared and snapped in annoyance.

"Haha! Got nervous, did you?" The three of them laughed loudly as they ran out of the dorm, leaving Ge Dongxu behind shaking his head.

Having made plans with Wu Longcai and the others, it wasn't long after Li Chenyu and his friends left that Ge Dongxu also left the dorm.

Upon reaching the school gates, he hailed a taxi and headed straight for Wanghu Hotel.

Wanghu Hotel, the lobby's café and leisure bar.

Wu Shiyi and Liu Manman, wearing tea-colored sunglasses, were having coffee with Wu Longcai and occasionally glancing at the lobby entrance.

As Brother Xu was treating them to a meal, they naturally arrived a bit early.

It's just that Brother Xu didn't like to be ostentatious, and since their identities were somewhat sensitive, they otherwise wouldn't be sitting in the café and leisure bar waiting, but standing at the entrance.

While Wu Longcai and the others were waiting for Ge Dongxu in the café and leisure bar, Station Head Guo, sporting a beer belly, walked into the lobby accompanied by Xiao Shanshan and Dong Qiantong, along with a few of the station's leaders.

Xiao Shanshan, with her sharp eyes, immediately spotted Wu Shiyi and the others and deliberately sauntered over, then in a coquettish voice greeted them, "Oh my, if it isn't Director Wu, Wu Shiyi, Liu Manman, what a coincidence to see you here too."

Seeing that the station's leaders were also present, Wu Longcai and his company couldn't very well ignore them, so they got up to greet Xiao Shanshan and then specifically left the café to greet Station Head Guo and the other leaders at the lobby entrance.

"Wu Shiyi, what is the meaning of this? Xiao Shanshan told me you had something on tonight and couldn't come. Is this the thing? Do you mean to say that you only need to listen to Director Wu? This is just sheer lack of organization and discipline!" Station Head Guo didn't pay any attention to Wu Longcai; instead, he sternly reprimanded Wu Shiyi with a dark face.

Station Head Guo had already been a bit angry during the day and had reassured himself privately that perhaps Wu Shiyi really had an urgent matter and couldn't get away. However, catching Wu Shiyi dining with Wu Longcai and Liu Manman, and doing so quite by chance, the anger Guo felt was no longer containable.

This was an outright challenge and contempt for his authority!

No sooner had Station Head Guo spoken than the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became tense.

For someone in Station Head Guo's position to say such things in front of several leaders of the station, it definitely counted as an utterly damning indictment, a matter of great severity.

"Station Head Guo, you've misunderstood. It wasn't like that..." Seeing Station Head Guo utter such grave words, Director Wu couldn't help but feel a bit panicked, and he hurriedly explained.

"Misunderstood? What did I misunderstand? Wu Longcai, how are you fulfilling your role as a director? Don't think that just because you have some accomplishments, you can start putting on airs. Our provincial station won't tolerate this sort of behavior! Return immediately, and both of you write a self-criticism report!" Station Head Guo's expression grew even more unsightly as he interrupted Wu Longcai, refusing to hear any explanations.

"Station Head Guo, I haven't been putting on airs. When Xiao Shanshan told me there was a dinner tonight, I already had plans with a friend, and moreover, this matter doesn't involve Director Wu's responsibilities!" Seeing that Station Head Guo was demanding not just her but also Wu Longcai to write a self-criticism report, Wu Shiyi felt she had implicated Wu Longcai involuntarily and so spoke up boldly in defense.

However, Wu Shiyi's explanation only added fuel to the fire for Station Head Guo; his real annoyance was not with Wu Shiyi, but with Wu Longcai.

Because within the station, he, Station Head Guo, was the true leader, yet now, it was clear that in Wu Shiyi's eyes, Director Wu occupied a higher position than him, Station Head Guo.

This was something Station Head Guo would never allow to happen!
