Chapter 182: Anonymous Letter
Chapter 182: Anonymous Letter
Hearing this, Yuan Xiu and Hao Jia nodded. No wonder Nurse Lin was able to get a recommendation spot; she has excellent eloquence, high awareness, and superb skills!
The two of them hid behind the wall and listened as Wang Xiaomei ran away in anger because she couldn't win an argument with Nurse Lin.
After waiting a while, the two of them came out.
Hao Jia: "Nurse Lin is really good at talking..."
Yuan Xiu tugged at her sleeve and smiled at Nurse Lin, who had just met the two of them, saying, "Excuse me, Nurse Lin, we didn't mean to eavesdrop."
Hao Jia's eyes darted around. "That's right! We didn't mean to eavesdrop, we just happened to run into you two arguing, and we were too embarrassed to come out."
Nurse Lin laughed and said, "I noticed you guys a while ago, but it's okay, I'm not blaming you. By the way, you voted for me, right? Thank you!"
"You're welcome. Just like you said, you deserved all the votes you received."
After the public review concluded, the nominations were practically set in stone, and the hospital gradually returned to its previous atmosphere. The staff, who had been somewhat agitated by the nominations, slowly calmed down and began to fully focus on their work.
Despite receiving the recommendation slots, Nurse Lin and the others did not slack off; on the contrary, they worked even harder.
Just when everyone thought the quota would remain unchanged, a document from the medical school caused a small ripple in the nursing department.
"Have you heard? Someone wrote an anonymous letter to the medical school, accusing Nurse Lin of 'being greedy for petty gains and having improper conduct'." Hao Jia ran into the pharmacy and immediately told Yuan Xiu the news.
Yuan Xiu was taken aback: "What brings you to that?"
After she said it, she quickly realized that it was probably because of the fruit and biscuits that patients or their families in the VIP ward had given her.
"Is someone making a fuss about the fruit and biscuits provided in the VIP wards?"
Hao Jia nodded: "Yes, the whistleblower letter also said that she treated patients in the VIP ward and ordinary ward differently, and that she only tried to curry favor with patients with high power... This whistleblower letter is really too much! This person is really black-hearted! Not to mention the VIP ward, nurses in ordinary wards sometimes receive some food and drinks, and some even send vegetables and fruits they grow themselves. People send these things because they see how hard the nurses work to take care of them, and now, it's been blown out of proportion."
"The person who wrote this whistleblower letter must be someone from inside our hospital!"
Yuan Xiu: "Besides people in the hospital, who else could it be?"
The two exchanged a glance and both guessed who it was.
Yuan Xiu saw Nurse Lin again that afternoon. Her expression hadn't changed much, and she was just as attentive as before when she was dealing with the pharmacy.
After the meeting was over, Hao Jia asked her, "What did the leader say about the whistleblower letter?"
Nurse Lin shook her head and smiled bitterly: "The leadership said they would investigate, so I can only wait for the hospital's investigation results."
Yuan Xiu: "Our hospital doesn't have any explicit rules against accepting gifts from patients and their families, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
She had previously used hospital regulations to refuse Mr. Cheng's services, but in fact, there was no such regulation in the hospital.
There's nothing wrong with accepting small amounts of gifts from family members; the hospital leadership is aware of this.
Nurse Lin said, "The anonymity claim is that I actively solicited it."
Yuan Xiu and Hao Jia exchanged a glance, realizing that being unable to refuse and actively asking for something are completely different things.
"Don't worry, you'll definitely get justice after the investigation is complete."
Nurse Lin sighed, "I'm not afraid of things I didn't do, and I believe the hospital can find out the truth. I'm just afraid..."
Yuan Xiu continued, "Now is the critical period for verifying the recommended quotas. Anonymous reports, although without concrete evidence, will have a bad impact if they get out. I'm afraid the medical school will have concerns and reject the application directly."
Nurse Lin nodded; this was also what she was worried about.
Whether the application is approved or not is not up to the hospital, but to the medical school's admissions office.
Hao Jia suddenly realized: "No wonder this anonymous letter was sent to the medical school. If it had been sent to the political department, we could have handled it internally without affecting the quota changes. But if it had been sent to the medical school, our hospital would have been in a difficult position."
"What did the medical school say? Did the leadership say anything?"
Nurse Lin nodded: "They just said to verify it."
Yuan Xiu patted Nurse Lin on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry too much. Our hospital is very fair and just. Even if the medical school has concerns, our hospital leaders will definitely take the initiative to fight for you."
Nurse Lin smiled and said, "Thank you."
She was quite touched, but it was the people in the pharmacy and other departments who comforted her, while quite a few people in her nursing department were secretly gloating.
They were hoping their spots would be gone so the hospital could select new nurses from the nursing department.
Anonymity has become an unavoidable topic at the hospital these past two days.
Some people speculated whether Nurse Lin had actually solicited bribes from patients.
"Are you stupid?! That's a VIP ward. Who would be so blind as to try and solicit bribes there? Do they want to die in the hospital?"
"It's also possible that it's not a VIP ward, but a patient in a regular ward."
"Wasn't she accused of discriminating against others?"
"Let's not talk about these things anymore. Anyway, I trust Nurse Lin's character."
"I believe it too, but this anonymous letter is so well-informed, it's obviously from inside our hospital. Who wrote it? It's quite scary to think about. If you accidentally offend someone, someone will report you, and you won't be able to explain yourself."
"Exactly! If I knew who it was, I would definitely avoid her."
"Who else could it be? It must be someone from the nursing department. If Nurse Lin doesn't get a spot, you can guess who will."
"Is it Nurse Zhao? I remember she came in second in the nursing department during the public vote..."
"It wasn't me!" Nurse Zhao confronted Nurse Lin, saying, "I didn't write the anonymous letter. If I'm going to compete, I'll compete fairly with you. I won't do anything underhanded."
Nurse Lin put down the medicine bottle in her hand. "I know it wasn't you. Don't overthink what people are saying."
"I can't help but overthink it," Nurse Zhao frowned. "I'll definitely find out who wrote the letter!"
She wasn't trying to help Nurse Lin out of kindness; she was simply trying to clear herself of suspicion.
If the anonymous letter accusation is really pinned on her, her reputation at the hospital will be ruined.
If you have a problem and feel that she is not worthy of being a college student, you can say so directly during a public review, but you can't resort to anonymous reporting.
Because nobody will pay attention to a backstabber.
The hospital set up an investigation team to investigate Nurse Lin's case, specifically visiting the VIP ward she was in charge of and the rooms of patients who had previously been hospitalized in ordinary wards and were under her care.
