Fang Yuying was furious. She whipped her head around to face Chi Yun’er. "You orchestrated this, didn’t you?"
"Chi Yun’er, you’re so vicious! It was just a few rumors about me and Jiang Yihua going around the hospital, and you used your connections to get me kicked out?"
Mrs. Jiang pulled Chi Yun’er behind her and sneered. "Fang Yuying, are you still so incapable of telling right from wrong?"
"This has nothing to do with Yunyun. Everyone knows she’s not like you, sitting on the sidelines with your meager skills."
"She’s so busy she doesn’t have a moment to spare. She wishes she could use the time she spends eating and sleeping for work. Where would she find the time to listen to gossip? Who knows what disgusting mess the Fang family has cooked up this time!"
"It was I—the mother of Jiang Yihua, one of the people involved—who couldn’t stand it anymore. I’m the one who dragged her here to get an explanation. In fact, if I hadn’t brought it up, she probably would have never known about any of this."
"Who do you think you are, to be worthy of her attention?"
"Besides, what do you mean *we* schemed against *you*?"
"All I did was call your parents here to expose your lies and put an end to your daydream of marrying into the Jiang Family. Who would have guessed you people had so little class you’d shamelessly start a brawl?"
The crowd nodded in agreement. "That’s right. Nurse Director Guo was right. If you had any decency, would you be brawling like this?"
"It’s just dogs biting dogs, and now you’re blaming someone else for letting you off the leash..."
It dawned on the crowd that this was true. If the hospital hadn’t fired Fang Yuying and put a stop to these rumors, how disappointed would the Jiang and Chi Families be?
If anyone could just use public opinion to torment others in the future, would the hospital ever know a day of peace?
They had to make an example of her. Fang Yuying was the chicken being killed to warn the monkeys—a restless hen who hadn’t even had time to warm her nest!
The onlookers couldn’t help but take it as a warning. They were here to work hard and earn an honest living for their families, not to just coast by.
They couldn’t let a moment of foolishness and greed ruin them and drag their families down, too!
Besides, with so many patients and their families watching, could they really let everyone think the hospital hired any and every scoundrel?
Seeing that the tide had turned against her, Fang Yuying slumped to the ground in defeat.
Only now was she filled with regret.
