Chapter 660: Truly Unable to Distinguish Right from Wrong

He truly never expected that Ma Lanhua would dare to come to the hospital to cause trouble.

After closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, he said: "Director, Comrade Liu, I apologize. With such an incident occurring, it is my fault for not managing my family member well. No matter how you handle it, I have no objection."

Hearing her husband speak this way, and seeing his face full of dejection, Ma Lanhua also realized the matter had escalated seriously.

Some onlookers who didn't understand what was happening asked quietly: "What is going on?"

Among the crowd, those who knew the situation vividly recounted the incident that happened in the canteen yesterday: "You don't know, recently family members have been complaining about missing ingredients. Because of this, some family members even had verbal altercations due to suspicion, but no one expected that the true culprit behind the scenes was Director Hu's mother-in-law."

"Could it be that Director Hu isn't feeding her?"

"This matter cannot be blamed on Director Hu. You should discuss the matter itself and not say things without basis."

"Heh, so you know Director Hu's family matters very well?"

"Everyone in the family compound knows how precious Director Hu's current wife is to him. The family's financial power is in Ma Lanhua's hands. If she couldn't eat her fill and went out to mess with the patients' kitchen, that is Ma Lanhua's own business as his own daughter; how can it be counted against Director Hu?"

"Those words do make some sense."

"Why are you in such a hurry, arguing with everyone so red-faced and frantic?"

"I naturally cannot stand you people falsely accusing others."

Someone in the crowd made a quiet 'tsk' sound: "What you are thinking in your heart, only you probably know."

"I said that day when I was stewing fish soup in the patients' kitchen, I always felt there was much less of it. I kept thinking I had delayed time in the ward and the fire on the stove was too strong, boiling it dry. Now it seems it was clearly someone who stole and drank it. This is truly disgusting."

"Exactly, haven't you heard? That old lady directly used a ladle to drink from someone else's pot."

"Her own mother did such shameless things, and she truly doesn't know how she has the face to come here to cause trouble?"

Since Ma Lanhua refused to cooperate, Director Hu had to step up himself. In front of everyone, he recounted the incident that happened in the canteen that day, and then repeated what he had said to Ma Lanhua afterwards: "It is my fault for not doing the ideological work with my family member, causing her to harbor resentment and run here to cause trouble. I am truly sorry to everyone."

With the full story of the incident clarified, Liu Chuxue then handed the person over to Director Hu: "I have safely handed her over to you. Whatever happens afterwards has nothing to do with me; do not think about framing me."

Upon hearing these words, Director Hu's face burned with even more shame.

Someone in the crowd of onlookers said quietly: "Fortunately, this Miss has a quick mind. If she had bumped into Ma Lanhua, and if Ma Lanhua had suffered any miscarriage, it would truly be impossible to clarify. Even if someone came out to testify and explain clearly, she is still disgusting to deal with."

"Exactly, Ma Lanhua was probably just here to frame someone."

"Her own mother did shameless things, yet she still feels wronged. She truly cannot distinguish right from wrong."

"Director Hu is truly pitiful. Who would have thought that marrying a young wife would also cost him his future prospects? It is truly a pity."

Hearing the discussions of the people around her, Ma Lanhua's face turned deathly pale.

She looked at Director Hu: "I, I didn't mean to."

But as soon as she said this, many people burst into loud laughter: "Look at what she said. 'Didn't mean to.' If it were intentional, wouldn't she be holding a knife to kill someone?"

These words were somewhat cutting to the heart.

Ma Lanhua, perhaps driven to anger, shouted at that person: "Wang Sangyu, shut your mouth."
