The director lifted his eyes, looking at Flossie Wright’s frank and composed expression, he couldn’t help but step forward, emotionally grabbing Flossie’s hand, his eyes filled with tears, "Comrade Flossie Wright, thank you for your magnanimity, really, thank you this time!"
That might be a bit too intense.
Her hands were suddenly grabbed by the other party. Flossie’s brow twitched slightly, and she nonchalantly pulled her hands free, responding casually, "Don’t mention it."
"Ah," sensing Flossie’s obvious movement, the director realized his own impropriety, his smile failing to conceal his embarrassment, "I apologize."
Actually, the director is a seasoned figure, having interacted with the brigadier many times. Logically, he should not have reacted this way when seeing Flossie. However, the event in the morning was a big fuss. Within a few hours, all major leaders from their unit had arrived, even the brigadier came with a grim face.
Originally, it was just about the "criminal". However, while he was adjusting the situation, he heard Glenn Hutchinson "accidentally" mention the matter of Flossie, a cook, being "forcibly" pushed to be a hostage by the doctors and nurses. As a result, the brigadier was furious at the time, teaching and criticizing their hospital director a lesson while pointing at his nose. Before leaving, he sternly stated—
If the forgiveness of the cook was not obtained, he would accuse the doctors and nurses who had incited the trouble of "intentional instigation of murder" in court!
The director, who didn’t know the truth, agreed and sent away the brigadier. He immediately called all the doctors and nurses to a meeting in the conference hall. Except for those on duty, everyone else was criticized for a full two hours. Especially the nurses and doctors who participated in it were the most severely criticized, they completely lost face both inside and out.
More importantly, their salary was deducted for three months.
After the director had vented his anger, he handed over the mission of "obtaining Flossie’s forgiveness" to this director. The director, with a heavy responsibility, was heartbroken. He came up with this idea, picked a large number of unemployed people to wait outside until Flossie came out, then apologized together.
For this reason, the director had stood here with them for more than an hour, truly admiring how difficult it was for the soldiers who had to hold a military posture or undergo training.
The director, who had originally prepared a large pile of words to persuade Flossie to forgive them, just said an opening remark when he saw Flossie calmly shook her head and said "it’s fine". For a moment, the excitement in his heart was simply indescribable, and the goodwill towards Flossie increased manifold, making him feel admiration wherever he looked.
In these days, there are really not many soldiers with such outstanding character......
Of course, if he knew that Flossie didn’t take them seriously at all, there’s no telling if his view of Flossie would change entirely.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll go first."
Flossie looked at the director’s increasingly eager gaze and naturally wanted to stay away a bit. After telling him, she didn’t linger and went straight on the road back.
The director, still in pure appreciation mode, only reacted two seconds after she finished speaking. By that time, Flossie had already walked a few steps, and it wasn’t good for him to stop her again, so he could only watch her figure leave helplessly.
"Someone come over," it wasn’t until Flossie’s figure disappeared from view that the director beckoned to the side, swapping the closest doctor, "Go see if the banner is ready. Make sure, by the evening at the latest, send a few people to deliver it together. Remember, make it grand!"
"Understood!" The doctor was unfortunate enough to be one of those who had yelled at Flossie. He had already deeply regretted his previous actions and immediately responded loudly to those words.
