Chapter 748 – Scolding the District Party Secretary!

Morning.

First Hospital.

“Stop pushing! Stop! My legs!”

“Move in an orderly manner! Stop pushing!”

“Those in front! Stop blocking the way! Move aside!”

“Stop pushing! What’s the rush?! There’s no earthquake!”

People were rushing out of the hospital into the open-air carpark. There are no high-rise buildings nearby, and people evacuated there. A few hundred people had filled it almost immediately. Some nurses were standing by the side, and some were pushing beds and patients there. A few injured were being treated under the sun.

A while later, people from the District Government arrived.

The District Party Secretary Wang Anshi had brought his men there. He was commanding the rescue efforts nearby when he heard about the hospital. Along with him are the Organization Department Chief Xie Qingrong and Public Security Bureau, Chief Wen Wei.

“Move aside!”

“Make way for Party Secretary Wang!”

“Make a path!”

Wang Anshi and his men entered the hospital’s compound.

Director Sun and other hospital staff rushed over to greet him. “Secretary Wang, Chief Xue, Chief Wen.”

Wang Anshi pointed at Director Sun and shouted. “What are you doing?! Who asked you to evacuate the patients?! Where do you want them to evacuate to?! Huh?! Your house?!”

Director Sun replied. “Dong Xuebing, Director Dong, who ordered the evacuation.”

Wang Anshi frowned. “Dong Xuebing had asked you to evacuate the hospital?! Did he get permission from the District Government?!”

“Cracks had appeared on the walls of the hospital.” Director Sun points to the main building. “Director Dong is afraid the building might collapse and shouted for everyone to evacuate. This is not my idea.”

Wen Wei looked at the building. “Which building doesn’t have cracks now? These cracks are nothing.”

Xue Qingrong shouts at Director Sun. “Nonsense! Why didn’t you stop him?”

“I tried….” Director Sun felt helpless. “Look at the situation now. I….”

Wang Anshi, Wen Wei, and the rest were frustrated. Dong Xuebing kept giving them trouble. Although Dong Xuebing had slightly impressed them by risking his life to save others yesterday, he still hates him. He had made a mistake by opposing Dong Xuebing and Geng Yuehua to take earthquake precautions and evacuate the residents. He is trying to make amendments through the rescue efforts. Now, Dong Xuebing is trying to mess everything up again.

How can the hospital dump their patients on the streets?!

Who is going to settle the lodging of the patients?! What about the hospital equipment and medicine?! What about the risk of infection?

The patients might die, which will increase the District’s death toll. Some hospitals in the District have collapsed and can’t accept patients. The District needs First Hospital’s medical support, and Wang Anshi cannot afford to evacuate the patients.

Wang Anshi immediately order. “We can’t have the patients outside! Get them back into the hospital now! Nonsense!”

Director Sun immediately asks the patients and hospital staff to return.

Many people were frustrated by the order.

“Is this a joke?!”

“We had just evacuated from the hospital, and you all are asking us to go back!?”

“The building has cracks everywhere?! How can we go back?!”

Wang Anshi looked at them and shouted with a loudhailer. “I am District Party Secretary Wang Anshi! The cracks in the building will not cause the building to collapse! We will inform you all to evacuate if there is danger! Go back now!”

Xue Qingrong and Wen Wei also started to persuade those patients.

They are the District Leaders, and people believe them.

A few patients got up unwillingly and walked back to the hospital.

Dong Xuebing, overseeing the evacuation in the hospital lobby, saw and heard Wang Anshi. F*ck! What’s the problem with you?! You don’t believe me when I warned you all about the earthquake. You even sent the District Public Security Bureau Officers to force our residents to return home! You are responsible for the high casualties and deaths! The residents died because of you! Now, you are sending the patients back into the hospital to die! How many more people do you want to kill because you want to stabilize the situation?! Is saving the trouble and stabilizing the situation more critical than their lives?!

Many patients and nurses stopped when they were running out of the hospital.

“Eh, look there. Why are they standing up?”

“Are they coming back? I overheard someone saying something.”

“Is everything fine now? Are we not evacuating now? I had brought everything with me….”

Dong Xuebing glanced at his watch. The aftershock was two minutes away, and most of the staff and patients had evacuated. This group is the last.

Dong Xuebing shouted through the loudhailer. “Continue moving! Don’t stop!”

Zhan Rourou had walked out with a patient. “Director Dong, Party Secretary Wang is here, and I heard him asking everyone to return to the hospital.”

“Ignore him!” Dong Xuebing scolded. “Just listen to me and leave!”

Some staff and patients were shocked by Dong Xuebing’s ferocious look and quickly ran out of the building. But a few patients hesitated.

It’s less than two minutes.

Dong Xuebing cursed and went forward to drag two patients out of the building. “Run! Get out of here!”

Many people saw Dong Xuebing’s anxiousness and became nervous. They stopped hesitating and started running out.

Outside of the hospital.

The ones returning to the hospital met the ones running out.

“Don’t come out. District Party Secretary had asked us to return!”

“What?! The building looks like it might collapse anytime.”

“Are you sure?! Who told you that?”

“A Leader inside asked us to run. He looks anxious, and I don’t think he is lying.”

“That is Director Dong. I know him. He was the one who published the article warning everyone about the earthquake.”

“What?! He is Dong Xuebing?! The one who predicted the earthquake?!”

“The District Government had ignored his warnings, and they were caught off-guard when the earthquake happened. I think we should trust Director Dong.”

Over a hundred people stopped outside the hospital entrance. They were hesitating and not knowing what to do. They were scared to return to the hospital because of their previous experience. They would rather believe the building might collapse than go back.

“Hurry up and leave this place!” Dong Xuebing shouted at the entrance.

Wang Anshi, Xue Qingrong, and the rest heard him, and their face changed.

Wang Anshi stormed forward. “Xiao Dong! Are you trying to create more trouble?! Who gave you the permission to evacuate the hospital?!”

Wen Wei added. “Dong Xuebing! The situation now is a mess, and you should stop adding more problems for us.”

Xue Qingrong shouted at everyone. “Return to the hospital now! Stop standing here! You all need to be in the hospital for treatment! The hospital will not collapse!”

The patients and staff hesitated and didn’t know who to listen to.

Wang Anshi’s face turned green, and he shouted to Wen Wei. “Get all the patients back into the hospital!” He walked towards Dong Xuebing with Xue Qingrong.

Dong Xuebing ignored them and continued to drag a patient out. He turned back and shouted. “Is there anyone else inside the hospital?!”

A nurse walked out from a corridor. “Everyone had left. Zhan Rourou and Xiao Ting are moving some equipment.”

Dong Xuebing quickly shouts the loudhailer. “Xiao Zhan! Stop moving the equipment! Come out now! Hurry!”

The aftershock will happen in less than a minute.

There’s no more time!

Suddenly, there’s a commotion outside. The District’s Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Wu Liang, Executive Deputy Mayor Shen Fei, and other District Leaders had arrived. “What happened?”

Forty seconds left.

Wang Anshi walked up to Dong Xuebing. “Dong Xuebing! What the hell are you trying to do?! Do you want to make the situation worse!? Get back to your ward now!”

Dong Xuebing looked at Wang Anshi coldly. “The building is going to collapse! How can I go back to the ward?!”

“Who told you the building is going to collapse? Stop talking nonsense!” Wang Anshi points at Dong Xuebing. “I am ordering you to return to your ward immediately!”

“F*ck you!” Dong Xuebing swore. “I will not stop you if you want to die! But I will not allow any residents to die because of you!”

Wang Anshi turns pale.

Xue Qingrong got mad. “How dare you scold others?!”

“I am f*cking scolding you all!” Dong Xuebing shouted. “The building is full of massive cracks, and you all want those patients to return?! Get lost!” Dong Xuebing turned back and shouted. “Xiao Zhan, come out immediately!”

A few nurses ran out of the hospital with medicine and equipment.

Less than twenty minutes left.

Everyone is shocked by Dong Xuebing’s cursing.

People had heard of rumors of Dong Xuebing being fearless, but only a few had seen it. This is the first time people have seen it. How can he ask the Party Secretary to get lost!

Dong Xuebing had scolded the District Party Secretary!

This guy is always offending others.
