Seeing a group of reporters suddenly appear, Zheng Hairong and the others were also taken aback.
However, Zheng Hairong had seen such scenes many times and found it nothing unusual. He figured they must have heard about their hospital saving a critically ill patient and wanted to interview and report on it.
Straightening his white coat, Zheng Hairong approached with a smile, "I didn't expect your news to be so well-informed."
The leading reporter sneered, "Naturally, otherwise, how many more victims would be deceived!"
Just as Zheng Hairong was about to introduce Chen Fan to the reporters, his expression froze, and he looked at the reporters in confusion, "What are you talking about? Deceived?"
Several doctors and nurses exchanged bewildered glances, not understanding why these reporters were saying such things.
The reporter coldly asked, "Or else? I have a few questions for you. Please answer truthfully. Does your hospital have the conditions to perform cranial surgery? Were there any violations of procedure before the surgery? Were detailed examinations performed on the patient? What is the patient's current condition?"
Hearing the reporter's questions, Zheng Hairong finally understood that these people were not here to interview them about saving a critically ill patient, but to cause trouble for them!
As a surgical authority in Jiangcheng City, Zheng Hairong had seen all sorts of situations. He retorted, "As reporters, I also have a few questions for you."
"Question us?" the reporter asked disdainfully.
"First, what evidence do you have to prove we violated procedures? As reporters, you are slandering without evidence, and I can sue you for defamation. Second, we performed surgery on the patient with the consent of the patient's family. Where did we deceive anyone? Third, the actions of our doctors do not require your explanation."
Concluding, Zheng Hairong added, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, the patient has been out of danger after the surgery. If it weren't for our Director Chen's timely diagnosis of the patient's condition, the patient might not have survived until now!"
"What did you say? The patient is fine?" The reporter's expression changed, showing surprise.
Zhang Wei hadn't said that just now. He had confidently stated that the patient was doomed. How could they be fine?
At this moment, a gurney was pushed out of the operating room.
On the gurney was the daughter of the middle-aged couple.
"Daughter, daughter," the middle-aged couple rushed to the gurney, their eyes welling up with tears again.
"Dad, Mom."
A faint voice slowly sounded.
This voice belonged to the daughter of the middle-aged couple.
To help the girl wake up sooner, Chen Fan had specifically instructed the anesthesiologist to use a lower dose of anesthetic, promising to finish the surgery as quickly as possible.
Moreover, the girl was young and in good physical condition, so she was already close to waking up when they were preparing to leave the operating room.
Hearing her parents' voices just now, the girl finally opened her eyes.
"She's awake, my daughter is awake!" The middle-aged man trembled with excitement.
This also proved that Chen Fan's diagnosis just now was correct.
Thinking about how he had almost missed the best time to save his daughter, the middle-aged man broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't imagine the dire consequences if he had listened to the lawyer.
The reporters standing in front of everyone were stunned, looking at each other in bewilderment.
Zhang Wei had said the patient was definitely in trouble, so how could she be lying on the gurney now, seemingly having undergone a successful surgery?
"Do you reporters have any more questions?" Zheng Hairong asked coldly.
"This..." The leading reporter's face was full of embarrassment.
"Heh, Director Chen, how was the surgery? Was it successful?" Suddenly, a figure walked over from not far behind the reporters.
It was Zhang Wei, who had been watching from the sidelines earlier.
He hadn't seen the patient wake up, but he had seen the middle-aged man crying emotionally. In his opinion, the surgery must have failed, and the girl had passed away, which was why her father couldn't control his emotions.
He was now coming over to add insult to injury to Chen Fan and the others.
Especially Chen Fan and Zhao Qianqian, those two scoundrels had dared to hit him. He wanted these reporters to expose them and ruin their reputations!
Everyone's gaze turned to Zhang Wei.
The reporters also stared at him with unfriendly expressions. If they hadn't been misled by this Zhang Wei, they wouldn't have found themselves in such an awkward situation, and might even have been sued by the hospital for defamation!
"Husband, it's, it's that lawyer!" The middle-aged woman recognized Zhang Wei at a glance.
The middle-aged man wiped the tears from his face, then angrily walked towards Zhang Wei with the middle-aged woman.
Seeing the middle-aged couple approaching him, Zhang Wei looked triumphantly at Chen Fan, "Director Chen, I told you your hospital's medical conditions were not good, but you insisted on operating. You even hit me. Alas, something has happened now, hasn't it?"
Then Zhang Wei turned his gaze to the middle-aged man, "You should also accept your fate. The dead cannot be brought back to life. But don't worry, I can be your plaintiff's lawyer for free. I will definitely make them all take off these white coats! And I will also get the hospital to compensate you a considerable amount of money!"
The middle-aged man approached Zhang Wei with a look of fury.
"Slap!"
With a loud sound, the middle-aged man raised his hand and slapped Zhang Wei directly across the face.
Zhang Wei was stunned. His smug expression instantly froze on his face, and he looked at the middle-aged man in disbelief.
"Are you crazy? I was helping you, and you hit me?!" Zhang Wei recovered and angrily questioned the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man pointed agitatedly at the hospital bed behind the crowd, "Help me? How dare you say you were helping me?!"
"Do you know that because of what you said just now, the hesitation I had almost cost me my daughter!"
Zhang Wei frowned and looked at the middle-aged man with confusion, "What do you mean? If you lost your daughter, you should blame these unscrupulous doctors. Why are you hitting me?!"
"Lawyer Zhang, if you're not blind, take a look yourself," several reporters said with grim expressions.
Zhang Wei then noticed that the reporters seemed to be looking at him with strange expressions and complexions.
He then took a few steps forward curiously and looked at the figure of the girl on the hospital bed behind the crowd.
The girl's hair had been shaved, and her head was bandaged, but when he saw that the girl had opened her eyes and was looking at him, Zhang Wei's eyes widened in disbelief.
"This, how is this possible?! She, how did she wake up?!" Zhang Wei exclaimed.
"You, you black-hearted lawyer, fortunately, we didn't listen to you. If it weren't for Director Chen's serious and responsible attitude, insisting on us operating, my daughter might have been gone!"
"What are your intentions? We don't even know you, why would you try to harm my daughter!" the middle-aged woman cried out loudly, and her fingernails clawed at Zhang Wei's face!
