CHAPTER 586: CHAPTER 586: A LUMP IN THE THROAT

To say I don’t envy that would be a lie only ghosts would believe.

"Wow, that’s great!"

The Nurse Director was sitting right next to her, admiringly expressing her envy.

Lu Jing blushed slightly before leaning close to the Nurse Director’s ear and whispering,

"Don’t worry, they are merely nominal private lawyers hired by my husband."

At those words, the Nurse Director got excited,

"Really?"

"Mm!"

If that were the case, then there couldn’t be anything better.

After all, we’re all just workers, who has the ability to find private lawyers so quickly?

Even if you try to find one, you’d hardly get this level.

With this, there was genuinely no need to be too tense anymore.

The Nurse Director turned to Dr. Jia, who was sitting on the other side, and they began to murmur softly.

Visibly, Dr. Jia’s previously sullen face gradually softened, and he even seemed to have smiled a bit.

Finally, his gaze turned towards Lu Jing.

Lu Jing nodded.

Although we’re not colleagues from the same department, there was a mutual understanding among us.

For a moment, everyone comprehended the situation.

On the family’s side, however, some were starting to get edgy.

So, these lawyers weren’t on the same side, huh?

But they knew each other.

Some of the more timid ones had already started to beat a quiet retreat.

They were just called in after all, of course, with the promise of a reward.

But now, when push came to shove, they backed off.

Because, in the end, no one wants to be the one left holding the bag.

Lu Jing’s group seemed even more calm now, less tense.

Afterward, the formal discussions began.

There was almost no need for anyone to speak; whenever the family proposed a demand, the lawyers from both sides were enough to tackle it, and if that wasn’t enough, there were police officers present.

The group would only speak when specifically needed to answer a question.

Everything was entirely left to the lawyers.

Those in the hospital’s legal department were, as expected, all standing on the side of the hospital’s interests, and didn’t really protect the medical staff that much.

This scene was somewhat disheartening for everyone.

Thankfully, Old Hu and Old Huo were there.

They not only confronted the family members making outrageous demands but occasionally engaged in heated arguments with the opposing lawyers, turning red-faced and loud.

This didn’t look like the solemn atmosphere of a police station at all.

It was no different from a marketplace.

"Family members, you should understand something: the child died due to the severity of the injuries, not because of the doctors!

And as to how the child got injured so severely, I believe the forensic assessment will soon provide an accurate answer!"

The family members couldn’t accept that.

The middle-aged man got agitated and stood up from his seat abruptly,

"What nonsense are you talking about? If not them, then who else? Our child was fine when we first brought him to the hospital.

Right, this female doctor was the first to see him, wasn’t she?

Why didn’t she notice the problem at the beginning?

If it had been discovered in time, wouldn’t our child be safe?"

Sigh!

Just as expected.

We anticipated that the family would pick on us.

And really, it was spot on.

Lu Jing felt a knot forming in her throat, wanting to say something but couldn’t speak; in the end, her gaze turned to the family members on the side.

How to put it?

It was just, still quite unbelievable.

After a long pause, just as she was about to speak,

Suddenly, ’bang’, the door of the conference room was opened again from the outside.

Hmm?

Who could be standing at the door if not Captain Jiang?

Seeing Jiang Ye in that instant, Lu Jing felt thoroughly reassured.
