Chapter 80: Doctor Shen’s Authority

Yu Wanqin frowned and asked, “Did you follow the dietary restrictions after returning home?”

The woman spat viciously, “Don’t you dare pin this on us! We didn’t give the child anything to eat! It’s you, this unethical doctor, who misdiagnosed our child!”

“If anything happens to my son, I’ll make you pay with your life!” The man’s eyes were bloodshot as he charged forward, attempting to attack Yu Wanqin.

Fortunately, several male doctors intervened and stopped him.

“Rest assured, if there really is a problem, we will definitely give you an explanation! Please calm down first—saving the child is the priority!”

Two doctors tried to step forward to administer emergency treatment to the child, but the couple blocked their way.

“No! I don’t trust your hospital anymore. What if you make my child worse? Today, I demand an answer—we insist that this unethical doctor be fired!”

“That’s right! Not only that, but you also have to compensate us!”

The two shielded the child, refusing to let anyone near. They paid no attention to the child’s weak breathing, focusing solely on causing a scene.

Yu Wanqin’s brow furrowed tightly, her expression turning cold. “If you don’t trust us, transfer to the city hospital. If you keep delaying like this, the child might really be in life-threatening danger!”

But the couple refused, insisting on compensation.

Some family members who had been treated by Yu Wanqin couldn’t stand it any longer and spoke up in her defense.

“Doctor Yu is highly skilled—there’s no way she made a mistake! Let the doctors examine what’s really going on. Don’t delay the child’s treatment!”

At that moment, Old Mr. Lin and Old Mrs. Lin, having heard the news, eagerly pushed their way into the crowd.

Without asking for details, as soon as they heard that Yu Wanqin had harmed someone, they immediately put on a pained expression, bowing repeatedly to the family and the onlookers. “We’re sorry! We apologize to everyone! It’s our fault for not keeping our daughter-in-law in check! She’s just a country woman who can barely read—she doesn’t know how to treat illnesses at all! It’s all her fault! Our Lin family apologizes to you!”

Upon hearing this, the crowd’s expressions turned peculiar.

Those unaware of the truth couldn’t help but wonder: if even her in-laws said so, could Doctor Yu really be incompetent?

Hearing that she was just an illiterate country woman, the couple became even more agitated.

“Great! We worked hard to earn money to come to your hospital, and you send a country woman to fool us? What, do you think our lives as ordinary people don’t matter?”

Some doctors who knew the truth tried to explain, but the couple refused to listen.

The situation grew even more chaotic.

Old Mrs. Lin pointed directly at Yu Wanqin’s nose and cursed, “You jinx! I knew you couldn’t handle such delicate work! You just hog the position without doing anything useful! Hurry up and give this job to Weiwei! Weiwei is a proper nurse! You should go back home and farm!”

Without even waiting for Yu Wanqin to defend herself, she eagerly turned to the quarreling couple and said, “Brother, Sister, don’t worry! We’ll make her give up this job! We’ll pay whatever compensation you demand—just please don’t sue…”

She was determined to pin the blame squarely on Yu Wanqin!

Yu Wanqin’s eyes turned cold. “The situation hasn’t been clarified yet!”

Old Mrs. Lin glared at her viciously, gritting her teeth as she said, “What more is there to investigate! It was your pretending to know what you didn’t that killed someone!”

Old Mr. Lin chimed in, “Go find Dean Su right now and tell him you’re quitting! Let Shen Wei come back! Don’t you even look at yourself? You know exactly what you traded to get this job, you shameless woman. The fact that I, an old man, still tolerate you is out of our kindness!”

The insinuation in his words was heavy, and immediately, whispers broke out all around.

Yu Wanqin trembled with rage at this twisted, shameless accusation.

Furious to the point of laughter, she met their gaze with icy calm. “How I got my job is perfectly clear to The Organization! It’s not your place to slander me here!”

“…As for this child, I am absolutely certain there was no issue with the surgery!”

She turned to a female doctor she was on good terms with. “Could you please call the police for me? I believe right and wrong will be clear, and the police will give me justice!”

That doctor knew her skills and didn’t believe it was her fault either.

Shooting an indignant glance at the others, she turned and hurried off to call the police.

The child’s mother panicked as soon as she heard about calling the police.

Eyes darting nervously, she rushed forward to block her. “Don’t you dare leave! Who knows if you’re really calling the police or just bringing in reinforcements!”

“You’re the one who messed up the treatment! No one leaves until you give us an explanation today!”

The man, having produced a kitchen knife from somewhere, stood guard with a menacing glare.

The onlookers gasped in fear, no one daring to move.

Just as the argument reached a stalemate, Shen Xinyun passed by gracefully in her high heels.

When she saw Yu Wanqin, the jealousy and anger in her eyes were impossible to hide.

This country woman, and a used-up divorcee at that, had ruined her carefully laid plans last time.

And made Gu Yanbin treat her so well, so gently!

How could she, who had pursued Gu Yanbin for over a decade, not be jealous?

Shen Xinyun couldn’t help but stop and listen for a moment. Hearing Old Mr. Lin say that Yu Wanqin had gotten into the hospital through shameless means, a mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips.

No wonder!

She pushed through the crowd and walked in. Without even looking closely at the child, she assumed an authoritative stance.

Casually, she remarked, “Such acute deterioration post-surgery is most likely a complication caused by improper surgical technique or medication errors during the operation.”

She raised an eyebrow, her sharp gaze fixed on Yu Wanqin. “Doctor Yu, as a doctor, it’s better to be rigorous. You can’t shift the blame onto the family.”

Her words were like a royal sword handed to the troublemaking family, who grew even more arrogant. “Hear that! Even your own doctor says so! It was you who caused this!”

“Someone like you doesn’t deserve to be a doctor! Pay up and go back to farming in your hometown!”

Those around who didn’t know the truth also looked at Yu Wanqin with suspicion and condemnation.

Even the other doctors hesitated.

After all, Doctor Shen’s medical skills were well-known to all, and she came from a family of doctors—she wouldn’t speak carelessly.

Compared to Yu Wanqin, who had only arrived recently, Doctor Shen’s words clearly carried more authority.

The doctor who had been insisting on calling the police now wavered.

With that, no one stepped forward for Yu Wanqin anymore.

Yu Wanqin’s expression turned cold.

She hadn’t expected that a single casual remark from Doctor Shen could make people disregard the truth and turn her into the target of everyone’s criticism.

“Aunt Shen, you’re lying! You didn’t even look closely at the injured person!”

Tongtong, carrying her small military-green backpack, had somehow squeezed her way into the room.

The little girl spread her arms like a protective mother hen, standing in front of her mother, her big eyes glaring angrily at the crowd.

Pointing at the little boy on the bed, she spoke loudly and clearly: “Little brother wasn’t made worse by Mother’s treatment! Yesterday, Mother stitched the wound on his arm, but now he has a fever and is breathing heavily—it’s a problem with his throat and lungs! Look, his neck is a bit red here, like he choked on something or had an allergic reaction! It has nothing to do with where Mother did the stitches!”

She had only been away for half a day, and these people had already started bullying her mother!

Big bad guys!

Yu Wanqin felt as if the clouds had parted.

She turned to the family members again, her gaze sharp as she stared at them: “Did you give the patient something he shouldn’t have eaten? Or use some folk remedy powder? You’re lying!”
