They didn’t pay much attention to Wen Xi, who had just sneaked into the meeting room, because each of them had times when they just wanted to stay in bed in the morning or were delayed by something on the way to work. Many people had entered the door late before.

However, there were some people who often liked to keep an eye on Wen Xi. The female doctors and nurses who tried to find trouble with her clearly saw her entering. Naturally, they would not let go of the opportunity to attack her.

As for why these people were looking for trouble with Wen Xi, it was naturally because she had a ‘good husband’!

“Yo! Look who’s late for the Monday meeting. Does Dr. Wen really think that the Cardiovascular Surgery Department is her home? Our Director came twenty minutes earlier, and you’re putting on such a big show by coming late! Why? Do you think that if you become Mrs. Chen, Director Chen will always protect you? Why don’t you take a good look at where you are!”

“That’s right! All of us came here in advance to prepare for the meeting. Aren’t you ashamed to come so late? Hmph! Director Chen has always been the most impartial person. He will not be biased and protect you! Don’t even think about using the fact that Director Si is your mentor to do whatever you want. Our hospital is not a place without any rules! Since you dare to be late for the meeting, we will definitely not agree to it. You will go and reflect on your actions in front of the whole hospital later!”

Wen Xi didn’t pay much attention to these two women who were very unpleasant to her eyes. She found a seat at the back and looked up at them after she sat down.

“Even if I’m really late, what does it have to do with you? Did I delay your flight? Or did I press on your lungs? We’re all colleagues, and we see each other every day. Can you not always find fault with me? It’s sickening! Even if you guys aren’t tired, I’m tired.”

Wen Xi’s face was smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes. She was tired of helping Chen Ze block these rotten peach blossoms and had enough of these womens’ indirect targeting toward her.

If it weren’t for Renxin’s excellent salary and treatment, which could also give her parents a lot of face, Wen Xi really didn’t want to continue working here. Now, whenever she saw anyone or anything related to Chen Ze, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, as if there were ants gnawing on her flesh and blood.

Listening to Wen Xi’s unusually swift and straightforward response, Ding Min was directly stunned on the spot. She didn’t expect Wen Xi to refute her so directly.

She widened her eyes and stared straight at Wen Xi. If it weren’t for Nurse Liu, who was standing beside her and poking her white coat, she would have reacted. She raised her hand and pointed at Wen Xi, wanting to say something, but before she could say the word “You”, she was pulled away by the other doctors beside her because Chen Ze, who was sitting in the main seat of the Conference Room, had spoken!

“Everyone, quiet down. The meeting will now begin. Head Nurse Yang, please report on last week’s work at the nurses’ station.” Chen Ze’s slender and well-proportioned fingers were holding a pen as he gently made a knocking gesture on the table, opening his mouth to speak in a deep voice.

No one knew whether it was intentional or not, but his words directly interrupted the argument between Ding Min and Wen Xi, who were in the same department.

This was the first time something like this had happened to her. She couldn’t help but look up at the man in the main seat, but her stare didn’t linger for long.

She casually flipped open the notebook in front of her and looked at the notes she had written down before this. Many of them were about Chen Ze, which ruined her mood again. Thinking that it was time to change this notebook, Wen Xi was a little bored and started playing with the pen in her hand.

Wen Xi couldn’t be blamed for being distracted for a while. She really wasn’t in a good state!
