Chapter 2072: Chapter 1945: Tattling
"Oh oh oh, hello, hello." Vice President Zhao quickly reached out his hand to shake Deputy Director Qiaoās hand.
Although Qiao Yutong was unwilling, she still politely extended her hand: "Hello, my name is Qiao Yutong."
"Qiao... could it be Director Qiao?" Vice President Zhao didnāt know Qiao Yutong, but he had heard of her name.
"Itās me." Qiao Yutong nodded awkwardly, turned around, and glared fiercely at Song Xiaodong, nudging his ribs with her elbow, and stomped hard on his leather shoe.
"Mr. Song, Director Qiao is mad, canāt you calm her down?" Vice President Zhao saw Qiao Yutong like this and quickly said to Song Xiaodong.
"Alright, okay, Tong Tong, I was wrong!" Song Xiaodong immediately bowed his head and asked for Qiao Yutongās forgiveness.
Qiao Yutong originally thought Vice President Zhao didnāt know her, but it turned out he might not recognize her, yet heād heard her name. This was great, now people would know that Deputy Director Qiao from Minghe City Police Department was dating Song Xiaodong.
Who knows what kind of impact this might cause.
"Vice President Zhao misunderstood, Song Xiaodong and I are just normal friends." Qiao Yutong quickly explained to Vice President Zhao.
"Of course, of course, I get it." Vice President Zhao had an expression as if he understood.
Seeing the situation spiraling out of control, Qiao Yutong simply gave up and annoyedly said to Song Xiaodong: "Let go of me, I donāt want to talk to you."
The mannerisms and attitude were exactly like a girlfriend mad at her boyfriend.
"Mr. Song, this is Doctor Zhang from our hospital, he is a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, coming from a long lineage." Vice President Zhao introduced the young doctor accompanying him to Song Xiaodong.
"Hello." The two shook hands to greet each other.
"Itās getting late; letās head out now." Vice President Zhao said to Song Xiaodong.
"Alright,"
"Are you going to a meeting? Iām not going, Iām heading back." Qiao Yutong pouted, refusing to move.
"Donāt be like that, Director Qiao, please accompany me. If you leave like this, how could I feel good? Iāve inconvenienced Director Qiao to come all the way here, I must take you to dinner for peace of mind." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"You do have some conscience." Qiao Yutong replied.
"Letās do this, Director Qiao will accompany me to the meeting, and then Iāll treat you to dinner."
"Then youād better wrap up the meeting quickly; Iām already hungry."
"Sure, worst case, Iāll sneak out halfway."
"Letās go then."
Song Xiaodong drove Qiao Yutong, while Doctor Zhang drove Vice President Zhao.
"Lucky we didnāt bring Lin Suāer." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"Why?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"Todayās meeting is at the Health Bureau." Song Xiaodong replied.
"Isnāt the meeting about discussing chickenpox treatment? Of course, it should be held at the Health Bureau." Qiao Yutong was puzzled.
"Both hospitals and the Health Bureau are like painful places for Suāer." Song Xiaodong said.
"Huh?"
"Lin Suāer refused the upper managementās compensation decision at the Health Bureau and got dismissed." Song Xiaodong explained.
"Well said, Suāer has a spine of steel!" Qiao Yutong praised Song Xiaodong.
"Qiao Qingtian likes people who are stubborn and persistent." Song Xiaodong mocked.
"If your wife hears you calling her stubborn, youāll be in trouble tonight! Iām going to tell Suāer right now!" Qiao Yutong picked up her phone, preparing to tattle to Lin Suāer.
"No, no, no, Director Qiao, Qiao Qingtian, youāre noble; how could you do such a petty thing!" Song Xiaodong begged Qiao Yutong.
In the other car, Doctor Zhang and Vice President Zhao were talking.
"Vice President Zhao, I have something to say." Doctor Zhang said as he drove.
"What is it?" Vice President Zhao closed his eyes, relaxing in the passenger seat.
"Does Song Xiaodong really know how to treat illnesses?" Doctor Zhang asked Vice President Zhao.
"Donāt talk nonsense." Vice President Zhao angrily reprimanded Doctor Zhang.
"How am I talking nonsense? Youāve seen the prescription he wrote, is that a medical prescription? The pharmacology and medicinal properties are completely off; besides being horribly bitter, it has no other effects, does it?" Doctor Zhang said to Vice President Zhao.
"Donāt worry about it, Song Xiaodongās medical skill is way above yours and mine. Many people in the city, province, and even Beijing know about Song Xiaodong. Donāt you think he knows that prescription canāt treat chickenpox? He told me the prescription was deliberately made to taste bad, the real effective part was the medicine pills he made." Vice President Zhao told Doctor Zhang.
"Vice President Zhao, if Song Xiaodong is so skillful, why does he have to come to our hospital? Why do you bring him to attend seminars?" Doctor Zhang continued to ask Vice President Zhao.
"I have my plans, donāt worry about it. Rest assured, your title will be granted as it should be, no need to worry." Vice President Zhao replied, impatiently, with closed eyes.
"My family has practiced Traditional Chinese Medicine for generations, never seen such chickenpox, nor have I seen prescriptions like his in TCM. I find something off about this. Why canāt I treat the chickenpox, but he, someone clueless about pharmacology, can?" Doctor Zhang continued.
"Enough, thereās always someone better. Mr. Songās skills are exceptional, youāre still young." Vice President Zhao looked at Doctor Zhang, shaking his head.
"Xiaodong, I wonāt head up for the meeting, what if someone recognizes me." Qiao Yutong didnāt want to go upstairs.
"Alright, just wait calmly for me." Song Xiaodong replied to Qiao Yutong with a smile.
