Ma Dandan watched Xia Enruo walk into the ward and quickly followed.

As soon as she came in, she saw Xia Enruo preparing to make the bed. She covered her nose, walked to the window, and started cursing.

"Pfft, if you can't take care of yourself, you should go home and rest. You've made the whole house stink, it's disgusting. You're shameless and love to cause trouble for others."

Hearing what the nurse Ma Dandan said, Xia Enruo, in an effort to ease Gu Shaoxuan's embarrassment, echoed her sentiments:

"I'm so sorry, nurse. It won't happen again. I had some things to do today and he couldn't take care of himself in bed. Don't worry, I'll clean up right away."

When Ma Dandan saw that Xia Enruo was still speaking nicely to her and wasn't angry at all, she immediately felt that Xia Enruo was just like Qiao Huizhen had said—a bully at home and a good-for-nothing. So she simply spoke even more harshly.

"Next time? How am I supposed to give him an IV next time? He'll pee again while on the IV? Do you really think our hospital is a toilet? If he can't take care of himself, he should go home. He shouldn't die in my ward. It's just bad luck to see him like that. And you call yourself a soldier? Soldiers are all like this."

Xia Enru frowned upon hearing Ma Dandan's words. This little nurse's words were far too harsh today; the sarcasm was excessive.

She glanced at Gu Shaoxuan and saw him looking at her with his face flushed red.

"Xia Enruo, I really couldn't hold it in anymore, so I had to get five IV drips at once. My lower abdomen is so bloated and uncomfortable."

Gu Shaoxuan looked at Xia Enruo and said.

Five bottles of fluid? This was the first time Xia Enruo had ever heard of such a thing. Five bottles of fluid for one IV drip? In her previous life, even when her employees were injured in a car accident, they had never received so many IV drips. No one could withstand that.

Seeing that Xia Enruo still didn't say anything, Ma Dandan got even more excited and simply walked to the bedside, pointed at the two of them, and started yelling at them.

"What's wrong with five bottles of IV fluid? If you're afraid of dying from IV drips, then get out and go home. I think you'll die even faster at home. You'll probably be dead in less than two days, you short-lived bastard."

Xia Enruo was utterly fed up with these foul words. At first, she treated Xia Enruo with respect because she was a ward nurse, after all, medical work is hard. But now she's taking advantage of her and thinks she's easy to bully.

She turned around and slapped Ma Dandan hard across the face, the sound echoing throughout the room. Ma Dandan staggered back a few steps, stunned, and covered her face, crying out:

"You...you actually dared to hit me!"

Xia Enruo strode forward, and before Ma Dandan could react, she slapped her again, this time with even more force, until her own palm went numb.

After finishing her sentence, Xia Enruo quickly grabbed Ma Dandan's hair, stared into her eyes, and said:

"What? Do I need to pick a day to beat you up? You've eaten shit today and you're talking so foul, so I'm going to beat you up."

Seeing Xia Enruo's expression change, Ma Dandan immediately snapped and shouted:

"Fine, you hit me? I'm going to report you to the boss."

Xia Enru grabbed Ma Dandan by the hair and walked directly towards the door. Ma Dandan fell to the ground in pain from having her hair pulled.

You don't need to go to the leader; I'll take you there myself. Who do you think you are, daring to talk like that?

Xia Enruo gritted her teeth and forcefully pulled Ma Dandan up, cursing:

"You keep a close eye on him. This soldier you call spineless is a member of the People's Liberation Army who was injured in the line of duty while fighting drugs. All the city leaders know this, and now you're cursing him to die."

I'd like to go with you to find the hospital director and ask him if the nurses here are there to serve war heroes. Besides, you had five IV drips at once. I need to ask the attending physician what kind of miracle drug he used that required so many to cure my husband's injury.

"If your hospital doesn't give me an explanation today, I'm not going to stay here. I'm going to the Health Bureau to find the director and ask him, is this how the city hospital treats patients to death?"

Ma Dandan suddenly became frightened. She never expected Xia Enruo to be so formidable. She had really met her match this time. If her superiors found out, she would definitely be criticized or even lose her job. She burst into tears.

Xia Enruo, having experienced so much in her past life, still couldn't see through Ma Dandan's cowardly nature and bully the weak. Keeping her around to continue causing trouble would only result in more patients getting hurt.

She dragged Ma Dandan outside. Ma Dandan was shorter than her, but perhaps because she was furious, she felt like she had inexhaustible energy today.

The two reached the door, their commotion attracting the attention of medical staff and patients' families in the corridor. Xia Enruo looked at the crowd and said loudly:

"Brothers and sisters here, look at this! My husband is a soldier. He was hit by a car by a criminal while on duty and can't get out of bed. Even his superiors praise him as a combat hero."

Today, the nurse in charge of my husband, Ma Dandan, gave him five bottles of IV fluids at once while I was out. My husband couldn't hold it in and wet the bed. Instead of asking for help, she started cursing and telling us to go home and wait to die, and that we were short-lived ghosts.

You be the judge! How can a war hero be so mistreated in a hospital after being injured? Have you no humanity?

Upon hearing Xia Enruo's words, the onlookers immediately became angry and began to berate Ma Dandan.

"Combat heroes are role models for us to learn from. How can you talk to them like that and tell them to die?"

"That's right. The People's Liberation Army soldiers stepped forward in a time of crisis and were injured, yet they were insulted like this. I think she is utterly wicked."

"I've seen this nurse before. She's always arrogant and never speaks kindly. If you ask her a question, she'll talk back to you. Her service attitude is really bad."

"If you ask me, we should fire her. Otherwise, if one of our own family members falls ill and ends up in her hands, we'll be tortured to death."

"Exactly, they're truly heartless."

...

The crowd chatted amongst themselves, while the doctors and nurses nearby remained silent. They knew that Ma Dandan was usually quite domineering, and many patients who came to see her were usually obedient and scolded without daring to talk back. Today, they had truly run into a tough nut to crack.

Qiao Huizhen saw a crowd gathered outside Gu Shaoxuan's ward and, seeing the commotion, went over to join in. She thought that Gu Shaoxuan and Xia Enruo had made a fool of themselves and were being laughed at, so she was very excited and kept pushing her way inside.

As everyone berated her, Ma Dandan buried her head in her hands, tears streaming down her face. Suddenly, she saw Qiao Huizhen and quickly said:

“It’s not my fault, it was hers. Dr. Qiao told me that it wouldn’t matter if I had to get three more bottles of saline solution. It wasn’t my idea to do it.”

In order to free herself, Ma Dandan dragged Qiao Huizhen out.

Qiao Huizhen was stunned. Seeing everyone staring at her, their eyes filled with anger, her mind went blank. She was panicked and confused, unsure whether to leave or stay. Her face alternated between pale and flushed.
