Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss

Chapter 636: Chapter 610: Acquaintances and Wandering Doctors

“She’ll be fine. We all care about her so much. She’ll be fine.” The man comforted the insincere woman.

Xiao Qian clearly heard a snort from the teacher beside her.

This snort basically expressed an intellectual’s inner pride and disdain, and Xiao Qian could even imagine her teacher’s gesture of raising her middle finger and spitting disdainfully in her mind.

This old lady could be quite cute at times.

“Hello, may I know if the young girl is out of danger now?” Professor Liu approached them and asked.

“Who are you?”

“I’m a psychology tutor from Beijing Normal University, my name is Liu Linlin, and this is psychologist Chen Xiaoqian, she’s also my student.”

After getting the certificate, the title of psychologist is now justified. Hearing the teacher introducing herself like this, Xiao Qian guessed that the teacher might want her to treat Weiwei.

“Do I know you?” Ye Daqian asked in confusion.

“I was the one who called you. I’m a radio host, Weiwei called me, and we are very concerned about her condition now.” Xiao Qian answered.

“I see, Weiwei is undergoing emergency treatment now, we—” Before Ye Daqian could finish his sentence, the middle-aged woman beside him interrupted.

“You people better not try to use my daughter to increase your ratings! If you want to interview us, you have to pay! Don’t think you can fool us, my daughter works at the radio station too!”

Professor Liu found it both ridiculous and amusing.

“I think you’ve misunderstood us. We are not here to interview you. My student and I are both psychologists. According to our initial diagnosis, Weiwei might be suffering from depression. We want to see the child and see if there’s anything we can do to help. Although she can be treated at a mental hospital, the child may have a different connection with my apprentice, which might serve as a breakthrough to better understand her inner thoughts.”

Knowledge of depression was still limited in this era. It was not until last year when a well-known artist jumped off a building that people realized there was such an illness that could lead people to commit suicide. But for many people, depression seemed far away from them.

Even worse, some people only know about depression but don’t understand it, thinking that as long as one is strong-minded and open-minded, they won’t commit suicide, which is incorrect.

Upon hearing Professor Liu say those three words, the middle-aged man was startled.

The middle-aged woman reacted quickly, immediately putting on a sharp and sarcastic expression.

“Oh~ I see, so it is the smell of money that brought you here. Go away, we are not treating her, and even if we do, we won’t choose you!” She turned her head to address her man, “These people are just like quack doctors from the Jianghu world, just like a pyramid scheme; they come to your door to swindle money. What tutor? People who lecture in direct sales also call themselves tutors!”

Oh dear! Professor Liu was collapsing inside.

She had been practicing medicine for many years and in this relatively uncharted territory in the domestic field, people were always eager to seek her out through connections. Everywhere she went, people respectfully addressed her as Professor Liu. This was the first time she had been called a quack doctor, and equated with pyramid schemes.

For Professor Liu, this was downright humiliating.

“You’ve misunderstood us; we don’t charge money; we just want to see the child.” Professor Liu tried to explain.

The woman immediately revealed an expression of seeming to understand everything, looking at Professor Liu and Xiao Qian disdainfully.

“The medical treatment is free, but you’ll make her take medicine, right? And that’s not free, is it? You just want to make money! You people are so desperate for money that you’ve even used the tricks from pyramid schemes. You’re out of date!”

Professor Liu was truly seething. Even the best of manners would run out.

“Depression does require medication, but we’re not the ones prescribing it, it’s the Psychiatry Department! The money doesn’t go to us!”

It’s so hard to reason with family members of the patients like this.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“It’s an old trick. You’re in cahoots with the Psychiatry Department. When we buy medicine, you get a commission! Let me tell you, I work in the medical equipment sales business, and I know all about what goes on in hospitals!”

“If it’s just moderate depression, medication only costs a dozen or so yuan a day. What kind of commission can we get from that!” Professor Liu couldn’t suppress her anger anymore.

“Ha, you just want us to undergo examinations, do all sorts of tests from head to toe, and spend thousands of yuan. Let me tell you, you won’t get a penny’s worth of advantage from us!”

Seeing that Professor Liu was becoming furious, Xiao Qian held her back, signaling her not to get angry.

“Can we just take a look at the child? I’m Meiwei, and she’s my listener.”

“You want to use our family’s Weiwei’s story on the radio, don’t you? Let me tell you, you can’t fool me with your tricks. You want to take advantage of our Weiwei? Show me the money! Don’t radio stations have informant fees? My daughter works at the radio station, we know all about it!”

Professor Liu looked at the woman, who was dressed in name-brand clothes and seemed to be articulate and capable. Why was it that every time she opened her mouth, it was about money?

When she heard that she was a saleswoman for medical equipment, it became somewhat clear where this money-focused characteristic came from.

If it wasn’t for the patient inside, she’d really want to give this woman a couple of slaps. To her, it seemed that human lives were less important than informant fees!

At the crucial moment, Xiao Qian was still the best. She winked at Professor Liu, “Teacher, you know the dean of Shilongshan Mental Hospital, right? Didn’t he recently need to purchase some medical equipment? How about this, let us see Weiwei, and I’ll introduce you to them? Here, look at my work permit. I’m not lying.”

Professor Liu was stunned. When did Old Wang need to buy equipment?

Xiao Qian tugged at her sleeve, and Professor Liu quickly nodded, “Yes, there is such a thing.”

Hearing this, the woman immediately took out a business card holder from her pocket.

“Look what a mess this has become. I’m just too eager to get treatment for the child. This is my business card. My name is Lu Zhi, and I’m the regional agent for Kensney International Brand Medical Equipment. I’ve visited Director Wang several times, but he never met me. Do you know him well?”

The skill of a saleswoman who can talk to just about anyone had been brought to its peak by her.

“Of course, we’re close! Director Wang had previously come to my teacher’s house for academic exchanges. He even snatched several ribs from me! Doesn’t he have a very bad temper and a loud voice? There’s a mole here?” Xiao Qian gestured at the corner of her mouth.

Lu Zhi immediately beamed, as if she could see her big order floating over.

“There’s no time for this nonsense!” Ye Daqian interrupted impatiently. The patient was still undergoing emergency treatment, and he found the performance of these people very distasteful.

Xiao Qian pulled Lu Zhi over and gave Professor Liu a look. Professor Liu then began to talk separately with Ye Daqian about information related to depression. She mentioned several symptoms, and Ye Daqian nodded repeatedly – yes, the child had been like that recently.

Meanwhile, Xiao Qian calmly chatted with the slick saleswoman, talking about everything but when she would introduce her to the dean.

A suave female saleswoman was easily led astray by Xiao Qian. It was too easy for a psychologist to lead people on, even top salespeople were no exception.

As Ye Daqian and Professor Liu discussed the child’s condition, a person came running from the other end of the corridor.

With disheveled hair and a flustered look.

“Mom! How’s my sister?”

Xiao Qian recognized her at a glance.
