Chen Fan, however, stopped him. "Forget it. That kid won't dare to bother me again. Besides, you took their money and then beat them up. If this gets out, it will be Da Xiong's loss."
Brother Hu chuckled sheepishly and scratched his head. "Mr. Chen is right. I really didn't think of that just now."
"Go on with your work. We'll play here for a while and then head back. We have to go to work tomorrow," Chen Fan instructed.
Brother Hu nodded quickly and then led everyone away from the private room.
Since they had to work the next day and were medical professionals, they only drank some cocktails and finished their activities before midnight.
As everyone went back to rest, on the way back to the rental apartment, Qin Minmin mentioned that she would be returning to Mingzhou City tomorrow as there was still some work to be done.
Chen Fan's face lit up upon hearing this. This was probably the best news he had heard all day, as he finally wouldn't have to sleep on the sofa anymore.
As expected, the next morning, Qin Minmin, who usually slept in, surprisingly woke up early.
The three of them had breakfast together. After bidding farewell to Chen Fan and Qin Shuran, Qin Minmin drove away.
Chen Fan and Qin Shuran then drove directly to the mental hospital.
However, before Chen Fan could reach the hospital, he received a call from Luo Yongtang. He said that there was an emergency expert consultation at the First Hospital. A middle-aged man had argued with his wife yesterday and drunk an entire bottle of Paraquat.
Ma Siyuan from the First Hospital had specifically called him to invite Chen Fan to participate in this expert consultation.
Hearing that someone had drunk Paraquat, Chen Fan was immediately alarmed. That pesticide is highly toxic. Unless one prayed to have bought fake medicine, the mortality rate is one hundred percent.
Chen Fan had no experience in treating poisoning, and he was unsure if his medical skills would be effective for such a patient.
However, this was a matter of life and death, so Chen Fan naturally would not refuse. After dropping Qin Shuran off at the hospital entrance, he drove to the First Hospital.
Upon arriving at the First Hospital, Chen Fan heard continuous construction sounds.
He looked up and saw that the hospital was installing protective nets on every floor-to-ceiling window.
Chen Fan knew that the sudden installation of protective nets was definitely related to Xiao Ran's fall from the hospital building.
"Chen Fan?!" Just as Chen Fan entered the outpatient building and was about to head to the thoracic surgery department for the expert consultation, a voice suddenly called out to him.
Chen Fan looked to the side with some confusion. He saw a middle-aged man with a dejected expression and messy hair, holding a cardboard box, staring at him with anger.
Chen Fan didn't recognize the man at first. However, inside the cardboard box the middle-aged man was holding were many office supplies. At the very top was a group photo. When he saw the image of a young man in the photo, his brows furrowed. "You are, Vice President Xiao."
The person who called out to Chen Fan was none other than Xiao Ran's father, Xiao Jianyang.
Xiao Jianyang gritted his teeth and walked up to Chen Fan. "Chen Fan, what did you say to my son that day when you came to the hospital, causing him to fall from the building!"
Chen Fan said calmly, "His death has nothing to do with me. It can only be said that he brought it upon himself. Even if he hadn't fallen, he hired someone to kill me. The law would have caught up with him."
"Heh heh, brought it upon himself. Well said, 'brought it upon himself.' Do you know that he is also my son, Xiao Jianyang's son! My only son!"
"He merely hired someone to kill a slut. What evil deeds had the wife of a thug done? My son was merely eliminating a scourge for the people. Can her life be compared to my son's life?!" Xiao Jianyang's emotions became agitated.
There was no pain greater than losing one's son. Xiao Jianyang wished he could strangle Chen Fan to death on the spot to avenge his son.
Chen Fan's expression also turned cold. "The mistakes she made were not for your son to judge. Moreover, she was also a mother, and she had an unborn child in her womb!"
"What good can come from a child born to a degenerate? I worked hard to raise my son for over twenty years. Now, my son is gone, and my job is gone. The culprit for all of this is you, Chen Fan!" Xiao Jianyang glared at Chen Fan with rage, and a tear rolled down his cheek, falling onto the smiling face of Xiao Ran in the photograph he was holding.
Chen Fan was somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected that Xiao Jianyang would also be fired from the hospital because of this incident.
After all, Xiao Jianyang was the most likely person to succeed the dean at the First Hospital.
"Chen Fan, I will make you pay the price," Xiao Jianyang said, and then walked towards the hospital exit.
Chen Fan frowned slightly, watching Xiao Jianyang's receding figure, and could only sigh.
If Xiao Ran hadn't hired Da Xiong to break his leg in the first place, if Xiao Ran hadn't hired someone to kill Da Xiong's wife and child, perhaps none of this would have happened.
But Chen Fan knew it was too late to say anything now.
Glancing at the clock in the hospital lobby, Chen Fan didn't dwell on it any longer and hurried towards the thoracic surgery office of the First Hospital.
Today, almost all the experts in thoracic surgery and respiratory medicine in Jiangcheng had come to this office.
Around the central conference table, many young doctors stood, conversing with each other. These were doctors studying under the experts and were considered their disciples. Experts usually brought their favorite disciples to such consultations to provide them with learning opportunities.
This was Chen Fan's first time attending such an expert consultation, so he didn't know this and didn't contact Xia Yiting.
Before the expert consultation began, all the experts were resting in the adjacent lounge.
Through the glass door of the lounge, Chen Fan saw only old men inside and decisively did not go in.
He then scanned the office and noticed that the conference table had signs that read 'Expert Seat.' Seeing that no one was sitting in the chairs, he walked over.
The moment Chen Fan sat down in a chair by the conference table, the previously noisy office gradually fell silent. The students who had accompanied the experts all turned their gaze towards Chen Fan.
"Whose student is this? How can he be so ill-mannered? That's the expert seat, how can he sit there?"
"Looking at his age, he's probably just graduated from college. We are residents and still dare not sit here, yet he dares to plop himself down in the expert seat. He's truly bold."
"I'm afraid his teacher will scold him severely when he sees him later."
"Click!"
At that moment, the door to the lounge opened, and all the experts in thoracic surgery and respiratory medicine from Jiangcheng City walked out.
Everyone looked on with amusement. No one went to remind Chen Fan that this was the expert seat and not a place for students like them to sit. They all seemed to be waiting to see Chen Fan make a fool of himself.
