On the day Lu Zheng met Qiao Zhen, his mind was filled with wild and unrestrained thoughts.
She was the untouchable dream from his youth.
She is also the existence he wants to possess n...
Upon seeing that the person who came was Tang Yue, Qiao Zhen frowned unhappily, but did not pay attention to it and continued to question Shen Yan.
"So, who is the person who wants to kill me?"
Hearing this, Shen Yan smiled and muttered to herself, "How should I know?"
Qiao Zhen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tang Yue beside her and made up her mind.
"Miss Shen, if you have nothing else to do, please leave now."
Qiao Zhen's face turned cold, and she pretended that she didn't have a bad relationship with Shen Yan.
Shen Yan snorted coldly. She naturally knew what Qiao Zhen was trying to hide, but she didn't want to expose him. So she nodded and left the ward.
After watching Shen Yan leave, Qiao Zhen finally had the mind to focus her attention on Tang Yue.
"Miss Tang, I wonder why you've come so suddenly?"
Qiao Zhen glanced at Tang Yue, noticing the panic in her eyes, but simply smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Tang Yue's heart pounded with fear as she listened to their conversation, but she maintained a calm demeanor on the surface.
"It's nothing. Weren't you poisoned? I came to see how you are."
Hearing Tang Yue's somewhat perfunctory greetings, Qiao Zhen also gave a perfunctory smile.
"I'm fine, I've almost fully recovered."
"Oh, so did you call the police after you were poisoned?"
Qiao Zhen didn't rush to answer. Instead, she looked up at Tang Yue and asked ambiguously, "Why is Miss Tang so concerned about this? I've been poisoned. Shouldn't you call the police?"
Tang Yue quickly tucked a stray hair behind her ear and smiled, saying, "What are you saying? I was just concerned because I think even if you were poisoned, it's not a big deal. There's no need to bother the police for everything."
Qiao Zhen sneered, "So Miss Tang means she doesn't approve of me reporting this to the police?"
“I didn’t mean that…” Tang Yue’s face showed some panic, and her tone contained barely suppressed caution and care: “I just felt that we shouldn’t waste public resources.”
Qiao Zhen was amused by his theory and said, "I understand all of that, but calling the police is something I've already decided to do, so Miss Tang doesn't need to worry about me."
After hearing this, Tang Yue was too lazy to argue with him. She just chuckled twice and made an excuse to leave: "I understand. I hope Miss Qiao recovers soon."
Qiao Zhen simply nodded without replying, her eyes fixed on the direction Tang Yue had left in, sensing that he wasn't that simple.
Although Qiao Zhen's work is usually very demanding, fortunately, she has always been in good health, and the doctor said she can be discharged from the hospital in a few days.
Qiao Zhen wanted to be discharged from the hospital now, but Lu Zheng kept forcing her to stay for a few more days. She was too lazy to argue with Lu Zheng, since she was on paid leave anyway.
Last night, the nurse suddenly brought over a medicine bottle and told Qiao Zhen to get an IV drip.
At first, Qiao Zhen didn't pay any attention.
"Ms. Qiao, this is the IV drip you'll be getting tonight. Could you please give me your hand?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen obediently handed her her hand, while fiddling with her phone with her other hand.
For some reason, Qiao Zhen glanced at the medicine bottle next to her and frowned.
Logically speaking, he has already recovered and doesn't need any medication. He originally thought it was just something like calming the nerves and maintaining health.
But the names of the medicines on the list didn't seem to be health supplements to him at all.
Qiao Zhen withdrew her hand and quickly searched online for the uses of the medicine.
He was shocked to discover that the drug was actually used for anesthesia!
Although anesthesia is not fatal, injecting such a large dose as an IV drip can be very risky and could be fatal.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Zhen's hand trembled, and her phone flipped over.
Looking at the nurse next to her, Qiao Zhen suddenly felt like she was being chased by an assassin, and she got out of bed in fright.
"What are your intentions?" Qiao Zhen asked, frowning.
The nurse looked bewildered, even a little panicked: "What happened to me, Miss Qiao?"
Seeing his reaction, Qiao Zhen assumed he was feigning ignorance and snorted coldly, saying, "Stop pretending, I can see right through you. Tell me, who sent you?"
The nurse, still puzzled, asked in a trembling voice, "Miss Qiao, what are you talking about?"
Qiao Zhen carefully examined the nurse in front of her. Seeing her frightened expression, she felt that the nurse did not intend to harm her.
"Take a look at the medicine bottle in your hand," Qiao Zhen gestured to her.
The nurse looked over at the sound and was shocked when she saw the label on the medicine: "Why is it an anesthetic?"
Seeing the nurse's reaction, which didn't seem fake, Qiao Zhen sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.
Did you encounter anyone when you were getting the medicine bottle?
The nurse was startled and didn't dare to think too much about it: "I don't think so."
Seeing the nurse's bewildered expression, Qiao Zhen sighed. There was no point in pressing the nurse for answers now, so she could only say, "Call your head nurse over. I have something to ask her."
The nurse didn't dare to delay and quickly ran out to call the head nurse.
Because Qiao Zhen was staying in a VIP ward, which the hospital took seriously, the head nurse quickly came to the ward.
"Hello Ms. Qiao, is there any problem?"
The head nurse looked at Qiao Zhen with a smile on her face, but seeing Qiao Zhen's cold expression, she felt a little uneasy.
"I'm almost discharged from the hospital, so why do I need an IV drip now?"
Seeing Qiao Zhen's aggressive demeanor, the head nurse pursed her lips guiltily.
"It's like this, Miss Qiao, your body is still quite weak, so you need further rehabilitation. We're giving you an IV drip for your health."
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen didn't get angry but laughed, picked up the medicine bottle next to her and asked, "Is this what you mean by thinking about my health?"
Seeing the glaringly obvious anesthetic drugs on the table, the head nurse's smile vanished: "Ms. Qiao, this must be a misunderstanding..."
"Misunderstanding?" Qiao Zhen laughed. They really thought she was a fool.
"Then explain to me what you mean by misunderstanding."
Hearing this, the head nurse wiped the sweat from her forehead guiltily and said, "It must be that the nurse accidentally took the wrong one."
After saying that, the head nurse looked at the nurse next to her with a disdainful expression and hit her hard on the head: "Look at what you're good at!"
"I didn't!" the nurse retorted, tears welling in her eyes. "She was perfectly fine back then. I don't know why she turned out like this when I was giving Miss Qiao an IV."
"If it's not your fault, is it mine? If you're wrong, you should have the courage to take responsibility."
The head nurse frowned, grabbed the nurse's ear, and scolded her harshly.
The nurse was also stubborn, and seeing that the head nurse was trying to shift the blame onto him, he retorted with dissatisfaction.
"I told you, if I didn't do it, I didn't do it. If you continue to falsely accuse me like this, I'll resign immediately!"
"If you want to resign, that's great! I'd love to have you. Do you think we need you?"
When the head nurse saw that the nurse was about to resign, she quickly agreed.
