Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Resentment

Since Song Xuan had made up her mind not to admit to this matter, she wouldn’t waver on this issue no matter what.

Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Gu Qixiao’s expression shifted slightly. "This is indeed my fault. I also hope it’s not you. Song Xuan, don’t let me down."

There was a steadfastness in his gaze as he looked at Song Xuan.

But Song Xuan dared not meet his eyes.

She had orchestrated this for so long—there was no way she would let Ji Yu get away with this so easily.

However, the public opinion online remained consistently critical.

When Ji Yu picked up her phone, she saw that Lu Xingchen had spoken up on her behalf.

"Brother, there’s no need for any of you to intervene in this matter, not even Lu Xingchen. He’s being attacked online, let alone the rest of you."

She couldn’t afford to jeopardize the company’s stock value.

Ji Yuanzhou frowned. "But..."

"No buts, brother. I know very well that the people behind this are targeting me. I won’t let you all bear this risk with me."

She had to find out who was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Soon, the police sent a notice, requesting Ji Yu to make a personal appearance at the station.

When Ji Yu arrived, both the police and Tang Tang’s family members were present.

Seeing Ji Yu, their emotions visibly flared up.

"It’s you who ruined my daughter!"

Ji Yu avoided their attempts to grab her. "Please take a good look at the report before saying anything. I don’t know what happened to your daughter, but I can assure you there was no mistake in my work."

This was the confidence Ji Yu had in her own skills.

The police adhered to Ji Yu’s previous suggestion and conducted an analysis. The results confirmed that the girl was indeed the biological daughter of Tang Tang’s parents.

"Their biological daughter? Do they only have this one daughter?"

"Their younger daughter, Tang Xin, passed away in September last year." They had investigated everything thoroughly.

It was clear that they had anticipated this situation for some time.

Ji Yu frowned. "If that’s the case, I request an injury examination for this so-called Tang Tang. Wounds can tell their own story. The age of the injuries on her face can be tested."

A surgery done two years ago, with issues arising much later—it couldn’t possibly be traced back to her.

Hearing this, Tang Tang’s parents grew even more agitated. "You just don’t want to compensate my daughter, do you? What kind of sin did my daughter commit to encounter such a heartless doctor as you?"

Ji Yu frowned, unable to understand their hysterics. "I’m merely protecting my rightful interests. You don’t believe what I say, and I don’t believe what you say. The only fair solution is to rely on testing."

But, unfortunately, they seemed incapable of grasping this logic.

As they moved as if to push Ji Yu, she remained composed. "Go ahead and try. But let me remind you, I’m pregnant. Think carefully before you act."

They were older, she was carrying a child—surely she warranted some consideration.

Old, weak, pregnant, or disabled—she fit at least one category.

At this, they hesitated, casting uneasy glances at Ji Yu.

"You young lady, since you’re about to be a mother, you should understand how it feels when a child suffers. How could you do something so cruel?"

Ji Yu raised an eyebrow. "Then you should start by telling me—is this person truly Tang Tang? Are the scars on her face really from my hospital? If so, why didn’t you come to me about it back then?"

She could admit to this matter.

But they would need to provide evidence.

Her demand was that simple.

They seemed incapable of understanding her words, leaving her no choice but to wait and see how they’d respond.

The police also suggested conducting an injury examination.

"My daughter is already like this, and you still want to humiliate her further? If she does something foolish because of this, what will we do then?"

The elderly couple wept bitterly, evidently having prepared in advance for this show of tears.

But, unfortunately, their tears held no weight for Ji Yu. "What you said is quite funny—her emotional hurt counts, but what about mine?"

She couldn’t understand the logic of these people.

"Let’s proceed as discussed earlier. If this person is indeed Tang Tang, and the scars were caused by another hospital, I will fully cover all subsequent expenses for her treatment."

There was no need to turn this into such a spectacle.

Seeing that Tang Tang was about to be taken away, her parents rushed to grab the police officers.

"If you dare take my daughter away today, I’ll go online and tell everyone you’ve all been bribed by Ji Yu. Let’s see how you’ll deal with that!"

The elderly couple, uncaring of their own dignity, was prepared to make a scene.

Witnessing this, Ji Yu realized that even without an injury examination, it was already apparent that something was off.

"Since you refuse, why not just tell me who put you up to this? For now, we can set aside Tang Tang’s charges of intentional harm. But are you aware of the price you’ll pay for slandering me?"

They likely had no understanding of the consequences of their actions.

But Ji Yu wouldn’t allow herself to be bullied so easily.

"My reputation is one thing. Then there’s the hospital’s financial loss. You should know that our hospital’s reputation has always been stellar. With the damage you’ve done, someone has to compensate for it."

Ji Yu laid out the accounts, one by one.

The elderly couple looked dazed and overwhelmed, the sheer size of the potential financial repercussions finally sinking in.

"You’re spouting nonsense! This whole thing is obviously your fault! Your hospital is despicable!"

"Then come with me for an injury assessment. Isn’t that an easy decision to make?" Ji Yu remained seated, watching their reaction, curious as to how long they could hold out.

"There’s no point in continuing like this. You have two options to choose from."

Which path to take would depend on whether they had the clarity to weigh their choices.

Hearing this, their expressions darkened further.

Apparently, they were reluctant to face such substantial financial losses.

But conducting the injury examination would expose everything as well.

"What gives you the right to drag me into an injury examination? We have the medical records from back then. Do you still want to deny them?"

At this, Ji Yu couldn’t help suspecting that there was a mole in the hospital—how else could such records go missing?

"Rest assured, your evidence will remain intact. I only want to know when the scars on her face were caused. Is that so difficult?"

With current technology, determining such things was practically effortless.
