A few of them were talking about something in the office. Lu Xingzhi stopped midway to pick up the phone. After picking up the phone, his entire being became cold and gloomy.
“What’s the matter?”
Even the chief could feel how terrible Lu Xingzhi’s mood was.
“Colonel Ye brought his wife and son to the hospital and made my wife pass out from anger.” Lu Xingzhi almost gritted his teeth as he said those words. “Good job. We’ll wait for him here. He went to the hospital to make my wife pass out from anger before he was willing to come back here.”
Lu Xingzhi did not say anything else. He looked at the chief, then at Zhou Junmin. “I’ll call my family to ask about the situation.”
Then, Lu Xingzhi left the chief’s office and went outside. He did not go far. He called Jiang Yao back from the corridor. The chief did not wait for him. He also called the hospital to ask about the situation.
Then, Lu Xingzhi left the chief’s office and went outside. He did not go far. He called Jiang Yao back from the corridor. The chief did not wait for him. He also called the hospital to ask about the situation.
Jiang Yao answered the call. Jiang Yao told him how Colonel Ye had brought his son to kneel before her so that she would forgive him. She also did not hide that she pretended to faint to avoid doing that.
When Lu Xingzhi heard that Jiang Yao did not faint from anger, his cold, ghostly aura shifted. However, Colonel Ye’s behavior undoubtedly fueled the situation further.
Lu Xingzhi was on the phone with Jiang Yao outside. The chief also asked about what had happened at the hospital, so he had a general idea about it.
The chief’s doctor friends in the hospital reported that Doctor Jiang had fainted because of Colonel Ye and his family. Doctor Jiang’s family had shouted and chased Colonel Ye and his family away. They did not know what had happened in the room, so they could not say much about that.
After the call, the chief sat there and tapped on the book with the tip of his pen. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Xingzhi, who was at the door.
He was near the door, so everyone in the office could still hear his voice.
Therefore, the chief could tell he was on the phone with his wife. Since Lu Xingzhi did not rush to return to the hospital, it meant that Jiang Yao was fine.
The chief suspected Lu Xingzhi’s wife must have faked fainting. Based on his understanding of Doctor Jiang, he knew she was not so delicate. He knew no doctors were called to Jiang Yao’s room after Colonel Ye and his family left. Jiang Yao’s family did not call for a doctor either.
It had only been a short while, but she could still talk to her husband, Lu Xingzhi, on the phone. Therefore, Jiang Yao’s mental state must have been fine.
Therefore, no matter how he thought about it, she did not seem like someone who had fainted from anger.
However, even if the chief had guessed it, he would not expose her.
He felt that Colonel Ye had underestimated Lu Xingzhi’s wife. He thought Doctor Jiang was as easy to manipulate as other ordinary women, so it would not be difficult to ask for her forgiveness.
However, Jiang Yao was not an ordinary woman. It would be difficult for anyone to ask for forgiveness from a woman with a similar temperament to Lu Xingzhi.
However, the chief did not care about Colonel Ye. Even if he wanted to help, he could not stop Colonel Ye’s family from seeking death. Colonel Ye’s son and daughter had caused trouble for their father. Then, Colonel Ye did not act appropriately when dealing with the situation.
The higher-ups had already tacitly agreed to let Lu Xingzhi handle that matter on his own.
Lu Xingzhi would exert as much pressure as he could on Colonel Ye. It would depend on Colonel Ye’s competence to deal with that..
