Chapter 148: Sorry, mistaken identity! (Please subscribe)
Chen Cang greatly admired the design of the receptionist’s uniform.
Today was Fu Yufang’s day of unveiling her new appearance, and Xiao Tianhua had arrived at the hospital early, even bringing a special gift.
Zhang Zhixin had also come early to the hospital. More anxious than Chen Cang, after all, he owned the hospital – if there were any issues, Chen Cang could flee, but he couldn’t…
Even though Chen Cang had performed well in the surgery, ultimately, the results could only be judged after recovery.
This wasn’t like sculpting—it was what it was.
After all, this was a person!
Recovery had to take place, and many complications might not emerge nght away.
That’s why Zhang Zhixin took such extensive facial reconstruction very seriously.
Fu Yufang sat there a bit nervously, feeling uneasy.
Xiao Tianhua smiled and reassured her, “Fangtang, don’t worry, in a moment, you’ll definitely be pleasantly surprised!”
“I was even more nervous than you at that time!
in the midst of their talk, Xiao Tianhua took out a delicate mirror: “I’ve prepared a gift for you. When you open your eyes, you’ll see it right away.” Chen Cang personally picked up the scissors and began to cut the bandages, just at this moment, hurried and anxious footsteps climbed the stairs and came to Zhang Zhixin’s side, whispering, “Dr. Zhang, someone is asking for you!” Zhang Zhixin paused and turned, saying, “Ask him to wait a moment.” Xu Rou said with nervousness, “The person came with Mr. Hu.”
Upon hearing about Mr. Hu, Zhang Zhixin faltered slightly, nodded, and hurriedly went downstairs.
Though Zhang Zhixin managed Zhixin Plastic Surgery Hospital, the true backer was Mr. Hu; plainly speaking, his boss.
Rushing downstairs to the reception room, Zhang Zhixin saw Hu Chuanjin sitting there, smiling and chatting jovially with a man.
By comparison, the man was visibly shrewder and more formally dressed than Hu Chuanjin—in casual clothes and towering in height, he certainly had a handsome presence.
Their conversation seemed very relaxed, suggesting that he was someone of significant status—a tycoon of sorts.
Zhang Zhixin greeted them with a smile, “Mr. Hu, you’re not too busy today?” Hu Chuanjin stood up and responded with a smile, “I came to see how the hospital is doing and to look in on you.”
-It’s been a while since my last visit, and I didn’t expect the hospital to be doing so well. Zhixin, all the credit goes to you. You deserve a higher salary for your hard work as the director.”
Zhang Zhixin also started to laugh.
At that point, Hu Chuanjin introduced, “This is Mr. Guo Yongliang, the owner of Meilin Supermarket in Anyang City. Mr. Guo, this is the Zhang Zhixin I told you about.”
Guo Yongliang stood up and approached, extending his greeting to Zhang Zhixin.
“Hello, Director Zhang!”
Meilin supermarket was a major chain in Anyang City with four or five stores.
Even though Zhang Zhixin was curious about the reason for Guo Yongliang’s visit, he still smiled and shook hands.
It was at this moment that Guo Yongliang said slowly, “I’m here to see my wife today. I was away on a business trip for a week, and when I returned home and couldn’t find her, I learned that she had come here to undergo plastic surgery, which made me very angry.”
“She was fine as she was; why did she need to get plastic surgery? Now she’s just causing trouble for me, isn’t she?’
Hu Chuanjin chuckled, “All women have a bit of vanity, and nowadays, plastic surgery is so commonplace. Who wouldn’t want to give it a try?”
Guo Yongliang sighed, “It’s not about that… Hu, as you know, my parents are traditional, old revolutionaries. They can’t tolerate such things in their conservative eyes! They’re too traditional to accept this!”
“Besides, I’m not ignorant about cosmetic surgery. And I’m not shy to say that when I’m idle, I like to watch live streams online. You see those girls looking so fresh and lively, but up close, what have they actually done? Just a fusion of silicone and hyaluronic acid! Especially once they take off their makeup, it’s unbearable to look at!”
“And plus, I’m a businessman. Fangfang often accompanies me to various events. If her surgery makes her look unrecognizable, where would I put my face?”
Hu Chuanjin nodded and said, “Yeah, the older generation can’t accept this, but you should also try to understand Fangfang.”
“All women have a desire for beauty. You’re so successful, and often out on trips, watching those young girls on live streams at home. What do you think Fangfang feels? She’s worried you’ll neglect her as she gets older, isn’t she.
Guo Yongliang shook his head, “Old Hu, the plastic surgery hospital is yours, and I won’t say much, just talking about the issue at hand. The purpose of my visit today is clear, I want to consult about the possibility of getting the surgery reversed. I know I’m late and that Fangfang has probably already finished the procedure, but I mean, even if she can’t get back to exactly how she was before, at least make it similar enough so that my parents would think she’s just wearing makeup. Don’t go shaving bones and adding nose implants, creating a whole bunch of changes! We don’t want her ending up neither human nor ghost, and having my mom not even recognize her when she gets home.” Zhang Zhixin was startled. How could you reverse that? Did you think it was like editing a picture? Just click ‘undo’, and it’s done?
“This isn’t an easy fix. Miss Fu Yufang underwent a minor procedure, a lot of excess skin has been cut, and after all, a knife was used. Reversing the changes would be a bit difficult!”
At these words, Guo Yongliang’s face immediately darkened.
Hu Chuanjin also fell silent. Performing plastic surgery for these people was troublesome and brought a lot of issues.
The room fell quiet for a moment.
Zhang Zhixin hadn’t expected that this plastic surgery would bring about such a predicament. It wasn’t easy earning rich people’s money.
Last time I did surgery on Xiao Tianhua, someone threw manure over it, and now with Fu Yufang’s surgery, here comes Mr. Guo.
These people really are hard to serve!
This is the reality of private hospitals.
If you were in the provincial second hospital, no matter what happened, someone would have your back. You wouldn’t be troubled over such incidents; the hospital would certainly stand up for you.
After a while, Zhang Zhixin said, “How about this, Mr. Guo. The surgery is already done. Why don’t you go up and take a look at Miss Fu’s current results If you’re not satisfied, then we can discuss ways to fix or adjust whatever needs to be changed. What do you think…?
Hu Chuanjin nodded and added, “Director Zhang makes a good point. Mr. Guo, let’s go have a look anyway. We opened our doors to do honest business, not to swindle people. If you truly aren’t satisfied, I, Hu Chuanjin, assure you, I will take full responsibility for this matter!”
Hu Chuanjin couldn’t possibly push the responsibility onto Zhang Zhixin at this point; doing so would mean the end of their operation.
At this, Hu Chuanjin stood up: “Let’s go, Mt. Guo, since you’re already here, let’s go up and have a look.”
After some thought, Guo Yongliang nodded and followed them.
Zhang Zhixin led the group to the fifth floor where the high-end VIP wards were located. Pointing to a room ahead, he said to Guo Yongliang, “It’s this room here!”
Guo Yongliang nodded, pushed the door, and entered. But after a brief moment, he was taken aback, turned around, and came out, “She’s not in this room?”
Zhang Zhixin immediately froze. I just left, how could I have remembered wrong? He checked the room number, and it was definitely this one!
Just then, a sharp voice rang out, “Guo Yongliang, get back here!”
Guo Yongliang was stunned!
That voice was all too familiar. Who else could it be but his wife?
But clearly, his wife wasn’t inside, was she?
Fu Yufang was furious. Seeing Guo Yongliang enter, she had a moment of joy, thinking he came to check on her out of concern. But to her surprise, he quickly glanced at her, then hurriedly closed the door and walked away, as if he was calculating something!
This infuriated Fu Yufang. Good for you, Guo Yongliang! Saying you’re out at a meeting for a week when in reality you’re escorting some floozy to get plastic surgery!
Seeing me and then running away!
Thinking I didn’t see, right?
With these thoughts, Fu Yufang yelled out, “Guo Yongliang, get in here!”
Guo Yongliang hurriedly pushed the door and entered again, gazing at the elegant woman in front of him, he was dumbfounded.
“You… you are? Are you Fangfang?”
Fu Yufang snorted coldly, “Me, Fangfang?! Pretending not to know me, aren’t you? Having such a grand old time that you forgot about home, huh? Fine! Guo Yongliang, you’ve got some nerve, acting all guilty, huh? Coming to the plastic surgery hospital to meet someone, and you didn’t expect me to be here! Now I really want to see who you, Guo Yongliang, have been seeking behind my back!”
After finishing her words, Fu Yufang got up, slipped on her sandals, and stormed out, carrying the unmistakable aura of a legitimate wife confronting a mistress, with that kind of background music.
Upon hearing this, Guo Yongliang was completely dumbfounded and quickly pulled Fu Yufang back in with a hug.
He hurriedly explained, “Oh, Fangfang, you’ve got it all wrong, I just came to see you. I heard you were getting plastic surgery and was worried something might go wrong, so I rushed back from out of town to check on you!”
“You don’t believe me, ask Director Zhang!”
Fu Yufang glared, “You’re still trying to justify yourself! I really misjudged you, Guo Yongliang. Who am I getting plastic surgery for? You heartless creature!”
