Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 514: Is 405 Dabao a fool?
Chapter 514: Is 405 Dabao a fool?
Erwang’s wife, upon hearing Xiaofeng’s words, started arguing again, "In any case, there’s something wrong with the food you serve, so you should cover the surgery expenses. If my man’s health deteriorates after the surgery, you’ll have to take responsibility too."
After all, it just so happened that her husband fainted at their place; if it had not been the case, she wouldn’t have been able to pin the blame on them, would she?
"Auntie, what you’re saying is not reasonable. We’re in business, and if it’s our responsibility, we will certainly take it. But if it’s not, we can’t just accept the blame for nothing, right? Didn’t you say you wanted to call the police or sue us? If you’re really thinking that way, I suggest you do it; after all, that would be fair to both you and me, wouldn’t it?"
The other party might have eaten spicy food, which could have caused appendicitis, but this doesn’t necessarily point to a problem with Gourmet City. It’s just that his own constitution is not suited for spicy food, and he ate it anyway, resulting in discomfort.
It’s like someone with stomach problems, who can’t handle stimulating or hard-to-digest food. Yet they eat it and turn around to blame the business for selling it to them.
As soon as Erwang’s wife heard Xiaofeng’s words, she was furious and couldn’t help but blurt out some harsh words: "You shameless thing. I see you making so much money at such a young age; that must be dirty money. Don’t think I’m afraid of calling the police, if I do, you better...."
But she didn’t dare to go on.
Because she saw that the other person’s expression had darkened, and their gaze had turned cold and frightening. Faced with such intimidating eyes, she didn’t dare to speak the rest of her mind. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"Auntie, you’d better watch your words. This isn’t the countryside where you can say whatever you want. This is a hospital, a place of civility, not for throwing tantrums. If you really want compensation, go ahead and call the police. Let the police decide how much Gourmet City should compensate."
This isn’t a charity; they won’t just give compensation because someone demands it.
After saying that, Xiaofeng turned to Zhao Xi and said, "Since uncle is not in serious trouble, you wait here until he comes out. If this auntie wants more compensation, let her call the police. I definitely won’t agree to the amount she’s just throwing out there."
Zhao Xi nodded, "Okay, I’ll handle it."
Zhao Xi also understood that Xiaofeng didn’t want to argue with this unreasonable woman anymore. She seemed like the type to take advantage of others; she’d demand as much as she could.
To just give whatever she asks for is, of course, out of the question.
Seeing Xiaofeng walk away, the auntie panicked a bit, "You can’t just leave, what about my man? You can’t just ignore it, can you?"
"Big sister, I’m right here, aren’t I?" Zhao Xi quickly replied, "I’m here, that’s enough, right?"
"I’m telling you, a hundred won’t do. You have to give at least five hundred." The auntie couldn’t really go to the police, but she wasn’t willing to settle for only a hundred yuan either.
"Big sister, let’s not talk about this now. We’ll see after uncle comes out." He could still make decisions within a few hundred yuan range.
It was like paying for some peace and quiet.
After leaving the hospital, Xiaofeng looked up at the sky and took a deep breath, then smiled faintly. This is life. No matter what job you do, you’ll always encounter different situations.
Xiaofeng checked the office accounts for the past few months, which were pretty good. Performance was stable, with a steady upward trend.
When she got home, Su Peng was also back.
Talking about the day’s events, Su Peng asked Xiaofeng’s opinion: "The incident was caused by Su Zhiyuan, probably trying to stand up for his sister. Considering that Su Zhiyuan is still in school, I didn’t call the police."
"Zhiyuan used to be such a good kid, how could he suddenly do something like this?" He Ximei had a positive influence on Su Zhiyuan, at least better than Hu Xiulan and her husband, a sensible child.
"Ever since his sister’s incident, there’s been a lot of gossip in the village. He’s heard too much and it has inevitably affected him. Their family has agreed to pay compensation as long as we don’t call the police." Su Peng didn’t want to ruin a teenager’s life over this.
At this point, Su Peng asked Xiaofeng, "Sis, do you think I did the right thing?"
"Su Zhiyuan is under eighteen and still in high school; it’s indeed inappropriate to call the police. As long as his family realizes their mistake, we are willing to extend this act of kindness." Xiaofeng wasn’t about to ruin someone’s future.
