My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 283

Ning Ran finally managed to eat her lunch in peace after all that trouble.

She would never have imagined lunch to be able to cause so much trouble.

Life was truly hard.

Nan Chen stayed by her side and watched Ning Ran finish her lunch before he left willingly.

He actually did have an important meeting and would have been late if he didn’t leave now.

Zou Gang actually stayed away after Nan Chen left.

Ning Ran finished her lunch and took a relaxing afternoon nap before starting to take her medicine again.

Her fever was completely gone, and she was feeling energized already. Ning Ran really felt as if she was ready to leave the hospital. If she spent any more time there, she might go crazy.

At that very moment, Zou Gang was in the hospital director’s office and was looking at his uncle with a stunned expression.

“What? Why do I have to be fired? What did I do wrong?”

“You know very well what you did,” The hospital director said darkly.

He had hired his nephew so that he could have his own confidante in this hospital. He thought it would be more convenient, too, for things to get done around here.

However, his nephew was way too reckless. He had only just started working here, but he had managed to piss off the least agreeable person in Flower City.

“What did I do? I didn’t do anything. I’ve been working hard, just like you asked me to. I’m the youngest doctor in the hospital, so I wanted to work hard and not let you down.”

“You’ve already let me down! Do you know how much trouble you’ve gotten me into? I don’t even know if I’ll be able to keep my position at this hospital! Stop feeding me your empty words and just quit. Give me your letter of resignation and I’ll approve it immediately. Then, from today onwards, you’re no longer part of this hospital. Just get out of my hair!” The hospital director snarled.

“What exactly did I do? Uncle, can you just tell me outright? I really didn’t do anything!” Zou Gang really had no clue what he’d done wrong.

“You didn’t do anything? Didn’t you go and offend that female patient in the VIP hospital ward?”

“Oh, you’re talking about her? I heard she was an actress and she was pretty, too, so I just talked to her for a bit. What’s the problem? Is it a crime to treat a patient nicely? Did I break the rules just because I spoke to a female patient for a little bit? Where does it even say in the rules that speaking to a female patient is wrong?” Zou Gang said, unhappy.

“Do you know who that female patient is?”

“I think her surname is ‘Ding’.”

“Then are you aware of who booked the ward for her?”

“No. Is it that important?”

“The ward is under Jiang Zhe’s name! He’s the number one assistant of Nanshi Corporation! Someone from the Nan family even visited personally! I don’t know how that woman is related to the Nan family, but I know that we can’t afford to piss off anyone that has to do with them!”

“The Nan family? Nanshi Corporation?” Zou Gang seemed like he was finally beginning to understand.

“So you do know Nanshi Corporation. Then why did you still bring this upon yourself?”

“I heard about the Nan family being the number one richest family in Flower City, but what does that have to do with us? We’re a hospital. It’s not like we’re under the Nan family, either. What can they do about me?” Zou Gang was still angry.

“How childish and immature of you! Our hospital is a joint venture. Nanshi Corporation is a majority shareholder, which means they are the true owners of this place. Even I’m just a worker under them! Good job; you have pissed off the big bosses. All you can do now is leave. If you don’t leave, even I’ll be dragged into your mess!” The hospital director shouted angrily. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“Uncle, are things really that serious? You’re exaggerating, aren’t you?”

“It’s more serious than you could even imagine! I’ve already got the respective notice from them. There’s nothing we can do now. You’d better leave right now. If you don’t leave right now, I’ll have to leave too!”

Zou Gang didn’t know he would have caused so much trouble by simply flirting with a patient. He would never have expected such a thing.

“Uncle, I met someone who seemed pretty standoffish in the ward just now. He was dressed in a black suit. Was he a shareholder, too?”

“Was he dressed in entirely black, with even a black shirt? Was he also expressionless, almost like a mannequin?” The hospital director asked in surprise.

“Yeah, that’s him. I think he came to pass lunch to the female patient. He was all haughty and kind of intimidating…actually, really intimidating,” Zou Gang recalled.

“You’re worse than I thought. Did you actually butt heads with him?” The hospital director asked in shock.

“Kind of. He was the one who gave that female patient lunch at the same time that I did, and I wanted her to eat the lunch I made while he wanted her to eat the lunch that he brought. We argued a little, and then this big guy came in and dragged me out. We didn’t really argue a lot, nor was it really serious. Is that guy some kind of big shot?”

“He’s not just ‘some big shot’, he’s the last person on Earth you should have pissed off! That’s Nan Chen!”

“Nan Chen?”

“He’s the boss of Nanshi Corporation right now. Did you try to steal his girl from him? Are you crazy?”

Zou Gang finally realized how much trouble he had gotten himself into.

“Can’t I just apologize to him? Uncle, I really don’t want to resign yet. I just started working here. If I just resign like this, it’ll seriously affect my future job opportunities.”

“Apologize? He’s not the kind of person you can meet whenever you want. You don’t even get to try apologizing at this point!” The hospital director yelled.

“No, it’s not impossible! He’s really close to that female patient. He might visit her again. As long as we keep watch on that ward, we’ll get ahold of Nan Chen! Once he appears, I’ll apologize to him. As long as I’m sincere enough, I’m sure he’ll accept my apology. Once he forgives me, I won’t have to leave anymore. Then you’ll be fine too, Uncle.”

The hospital director sort of understood where Zou Gang was coming from.

He had gone to extreme lengths to get his nephew into this hospital so he could have a confidante in the future.

As the hospital director, he always had to worry about whether he would get replaced. That’s why he had to know everything that was going on in every department of the hospital.

In order to do that, he had to have people he trusted in each department.

This nephew of his was young and skilled as well as good-looking. He was also particularly good at smooth-talking women.

With Zou Gang working under him, he could have an even firmer grip on his position.

That was why having Zou Gang in the hospital was important to the hospital director.

“What if Nan Chen doesn’t come? Actually, even if he does come, what if he doesn’t accept the apology?” The hospital director asked in worry.

“I know what to do. Uncle, maybe we can go and beg that female patient for help! Women are soft creatures. If we go directly to Nan Chen, he might not forgive us, but if we go and beg for forgiveness from the female patient, I feel like she’ll accept our apology. If she helps me with Nan Chen, then I won’t have to go. It started because of her, anyway, so if I apologize extra sincerely, she’ll definitely help me out.” Zou Gang had a new idea.

The hospital director actually saw sense in what Zou Gang had planned.
