Chapter 985: Chapter 985 Brother-in-law is Too Shameless Chapter 985: Chapter 985 Brother-in-law is Too Shameless No one expected Luo Ziling to suddenly call out Zhang Guodong for an apology.

Zhang Guodong himself did not expect it; therefore, when Luo Ziling approached him and abruptly asked the question, he was stunned on the spot.

“Just now you said I was a brat who hadn’t grown my full set of hair and told me not to join the excitement. Now, I’ve proven with my own medical skills that you were looking down on me with a dog’s eyes,” Luo Ziling angrily rebuked Zhang Guodong before making his demand, “A true man admits his mistakes and apologizes when he speaks wrongly. I hope you apologize to me in front of everyone.”

“You… you’re going too far,” Zhang Guodong was infuriated, “Don’t think that just because you have some medical skills, you can humiliate me!”

He actually called him out for looking down on people with a dog’s eyes, and in front of so many people at that. Naturally, anyone would get angry–most people are like that; they don’t think it’s too much when they insult or humiliate others, but when the same is directed at them, they find it excessive and become furious.

“So, it’s only allowed for you to humiliate me, but I can’t retaliate?” Luo Ziling looked at the furiously defeated Zhang Guodong with a mocking face, “You question my abilities in front of all these people and even tried to drive me away. You think that’s completely reasonable, so it’s also reasonable for you to publicly apologize to me. Today, I need your apology!”

“Don’t push me too far,” Zhang Guodong glared at Luo Ziling with embarrassed anger, “I was just considering the safety and welfare of the patient, it wasn’t directed at anyone in particular.”

“I’m demanding an apology also for the safety and welfare of the patient,” Luo Ziling said with a sneer, “Your foolish actions just now nearly cost the lives of so many critical patients. Is it so hard to apologize for your stupidity? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll get angry and stop treating these people? If that happens, they’ll still be in critical condition, and you’d still be the murderer responsible for their lives.”

Wu Mingyun stood beside Luo Ziling, watching with the attitude of a spectator, not trying to dissuade Luo Ziling from his aggressive stance.

Zhang Guodong was his rival, and the two had a bad relationship. Naturally, Wu Mingyun was pleased to see Luo Ziling clashing with Zhang Guodong and making him look foolish.

A deputy director from the Health and Family Planning Commission who had stayed in the hospital had intended to thank Luo Ziling for his assistance and hoped he could continue helping with treatments. He did not expect Luo Ziling to come out and clash with Zhang Guodong, demanding an apology.

Hearing Luo Ziling utter such threatening words, the deputy director couldn’t stand it and hurried over to mediate. “Doctor Luo, it was just a misunderstanding. Everyone is cautious out of fear that the problem won’t get solved; caution is essential. Please understand. And don’t make such aggravated statements–treating and saving lives is the duty of a healer, don’t you think? Director Zhang was also considering the bigger picture; that’s why he might have caused offense. The incident is in the past, and you should not hold onto it. We will strive to get you more recognition for your work.”

“I want his apology,” Luo Ziling replied, then looked at the others in the conference room, “and the apologies of those who attacked me just now. I nearly fainted from exhaustion treating the patients just now, and all you did was flap your lips–is that not excessive?”

Yang Qingyin and Yang Qingye were peeking from the doorway and were surprised to see Luo Ziling be so stubborn.

“Sis, my brother-in-law is really stubborn, isn’t he? This is like slapping these people’s faces in public,” Yang Qingye whispered to Yang Qingyin. “Do you think they will apologize? Hehe, if they don’t apologize, would brother-in-law just wash his hands off this?”

“Why so much nonsense?” Yang Qingyin, who was worried about Luo Ziling, huffed impatiently.

Yang Qingye had no choice but to shut up.

“Director Zhang, is it really that hard to apologize?” Wu Mingyun added fuel to the fire in a timely manner, “You really were in the wrong just now, and all Doctor Luo is asking for is an apology. How did you guys treat Doctor Luo earlier? If it were me, faced with so many people objecting and not letting me treat the patient, I’d turn around and leave, refusing to put up with this and not take the risk. Now that Doctor Luo has temporarily solved a big problem for us, he just needs your apology. Is that so difficult?”

“I’m sorry,” it was the deputy director of the Health and Family Planning Commission who sensed that something was amiss and immediately apologized to Luo Ziling, “I apologize for any offense caused just now, and I hope you can forgive me. I hope you will continue to help with the treatment and do your utmost to save these people’s lives.”

With the deputy director taking the lead in apologizing, Zhang Guodong could no longer hold his ground. Hesitating for a moment, he finally opened his mouth and apologized to Luo Ziling: “Doctor Luo, I really am sorry for earlier, I offended you, and I hope you can forgive me.”

“Actually, apologizing is quite easy to do,” Luo Ziling laughed lightly, ignoring Zhang Guodong.

The other doctors who had previously insulted Luo Ziling also came forward one after another to apologize to him.

“Actually, I just wanted to save face,” said Luo Ziling after accepting everyone’s apologies, pointing at Yang Qingyin and Yang Qingye who were peeping from the doorway, “My girlfriend and my future brother-in-law came with me. They had to watch me being bullied by so many of you, almost driven away. It was really embarrassing for me. If I didn’t regain some face, I might end up single. So, I’m sorry everyone, haha!”

“Damn, I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as my brother-in-law,” Yang Qingye’s mouth dropped open when Luo Ziling pinned all the blame on them, “How thick-skinned must he be to say something like that?”

“If dad was still around, he’d definitely demand an apology on his behalf,” Yang Qingyin snorted, “That’s just his nature, absolutely must have face. Whoever bullies him, he must get revenge. Of course, he can often endure it when a beautiful woman bullies him, like how Ouyang Huihui treated him, he didn’t really do much about it.”

Yang Qingyin’s words were indeed revealing, Luo Ziling couldn’t tolerate being bullied by others, except when it was a beautiful woman.

After getting to know Ouyang Huihui, there were many entanglements between them, and she bullied him several times, but Luo Ziling never completely fell out with Ouyang Huihui. In Luo Ziling’s heart, most of a woman’s actions are forgivable, let alone the actions of a woman who cares about you.

A sentimental heart ran rampant in him; after all, he had seen so few beautiful women when living in the small mountain village.

That’s all because of the lack of maternal love since childhood!

At this time, the atmosphere in the meeting room changed again.

Luo Ziling walked up to several traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who had mocked him earlier and said coldly, “I know you specialize in Chinese medicine and perhaps have high titles, but I think both your professional knowledge and medical ethics need improvement. Who says young people can’t master excellent medical skills? I started learning medicine at the age of five, so I’ve been in practice for fifteen years, practicing various acupuncture skills every day and studying many medical texts. Don’t think that just because you’re older, you can belittle others. Experience is important, but the willingness to delve deeper and learn more is even more important. If you truly understand the great acupuncture skills, you should know that these patients can be cured with the Taiyi Acupuncture Method, Burning Mountain Fire, and Piercing Sky Cooling. Sadly, you’ve been wearing the title of experts in vain, unable to make any real difference, and it is indeed embarrassing for you.”

The room fell silent in an instant, nobody expected Luo Ziling to be so arrogant, daring to publicly reprimand people, especially several well-known experts in the Chinese medicine sector.
