Chapter 22 — On my first day as Director, I was kicked out of the cafeteria by the resident doctor

Chapter 27 In the second week after the Provincial Health Center was approved, To Nha Lam made another move. But this time it's not a video. Han Man came in early in the morning, his face very complicated.

“Director Co, To Nha Lam posted a long article online, titled 'Apology letter'."

“Apology letter?”

"She said in the article, the previous video was somewhat exaggerated and one-sided. She admitted that her degree was indeed not up to the standards of attracting talented people, and her test scores were also really not good. She said that at that time, she was influenced by emotions so she did irrational things."

“She took the initiative to apologize?”

"It seems so. But halfway through the article, the tone changed, she said a paragraph."

Han Man gave me the phone. Original text by To Nha Lam:

"I did a lot of wrong things, but I want to say, I'm not the only one at fault. During my internship, Director Phuong Tri Vien helped me a lot, and also gave me a lot of expectations that I shouldn't have. If it wasn't for him over and over again making me feel 'with him here, I don't have to be afraid of anything', I wouldn't have turned out like I did later. I'm sorry for my mistakes, but I also hope that everyone deserves to be held accountable." All responsibilities can be faced.”

I put down the phone.

"This is not an apology letter. This is the final stab."

Han Man nodded.

“She's dragging Director Phuong through the mud.”

"It's not like being dragged through the mud. Director Phuong is already in the mud. She's telling everyone that Director Phuong is not a simple victim."

“Do I need a response?”

"No need. But I'll tell Phuong Tri Vien to take a look. Let him decide for himself whether to say anything or not."

That afternoon, after reading the article, Phuong Tri Vien posted a paragraph on his social network account. There are only three correct sentences.

"What To Nha Lam said is true. During the stage when she was just starting out, I did not fulfill my responsibilities as an instructor, on the contrary, I also sent out false signals. That is my fault, I accept all criticism."

The direction of online public opinion has changed again. This time, there are no more factions, but strange unity. Almost everyone said the same thing: "This is the end of this story." Below To Nha Lam's article, the comment with the most likes is:

"You're brave, he's straightforward. Now it's time for you two to go your separate ways."

To Nha Lam never posts new articles again. Her account then silently changed its name, and her profile picture changed to a white flower. Someone said she went to work at a private clinic in another province. Some people also say she quit her medical career and switched to another field. I'm not going to inquire. Her life is her own business. Han Man later told me that on the evening of the day Phuong Tri Vien posted those three sentences, he sat in his office for a long time.

“The security guard said he wouldn't leave until 11 o'clock.”

“What does he do?”

"Review my previous surgical tapes. Watch from the first case to the last."

I did not respond. There are detours and he has to go all by himself.
