Yan Yueyue muttered under her breath, "If you're not going, I will. Coward!"
"Hey, wait for me!"
No matter how hesitant Xiao Shuyuan was, he couldn't let a woman take risks.
At least when they were discovered, he could hold off for a while.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
The bodyguard standing guard at the ward door stared at them warily.
His eyes seemed like infrared rays. Any hint of unease in their expressions would surely be detected.
"We're here to change the medicine," Yan Yueyue said calmly.
"I've already informed the nurse station this afternoon that there's no need to come for medicine - changing. Didn't you receive the notice?" the bodyguard probed.
"We were on a ward - round with the doctor. We didn't hear from our colleagues," she replied naturally, then took out the watch hanging on her chest. "It's been a while since the last medicine - change. What if the patient inside has some symptoms that aren't treated in time? Can you take the responsibility?"
The bodyguard was stumped by her question and stood there stunned.
Su Minghan had only told them not to let outsiders get close, but hadn't mentioned whether nurses should be allowed in to check on Tian Danni's condition.
Thinking it over, what she said made sense.
"In that case, we'll go back first. Don't say I didn't warn you if something goes wrong," Yan Yueyue said, then was about to leave with Xiao Shuyuan when she was called from behind.
"Wait," the bodyguard said doubtfully. "You can go in."
"But this man has to stay."
Xiao Shuyuan froze and looked at Yan Yueyue with a pleading look.
"Okay. It'll only take a minute or two. I'll be out soon."
She calmly walked into the ward under the watchful eyes of four or five bodyguards.
Beep, beep.
The sound of the electrocardiogram machine was especially prominent in the empty ward.
Yan Yueyue took out the pre - prepared syringe and injected the medicine into the drip bottle.
Her heart was pounding wildly. She was extremely nervous.
"What are you doing?"
Tian Danni's voice suddenly rang out, scaring Yan Yueyue so much that she almost screamed.
"Ah, I'm a nurse from the hospital. I'm here to check on your condition," Yan Yueyue said nervously, sweating on her forehead. "How do you feel?"
Tian Danni shook her head slightly. Her head was terribly dizzy.
Especially her throat. It felt so dry and hoarse that even saying one more word seemed like a struggle.
"Have a good rest. I hope you'll recover soon," Yan Yueyue said some polite words, then quickly left with her hands in the pockets of her white coat.
"All done?" the bodyguard asked warily to confirm.
She swallowed hard. "Yes. The patient has woken up. We'll go and call the doctor for a further check - up. There shouldn't be any major problems."
"… Okay, thank you."
The bodyguard watched their figures until they disappeared from sight, then opened the ward door to check. There was indeed no abnormality.
Yan Yueyue grabbed Xiao Shuyuan's hand. She let out a sigh of relief when they turned the corner. "Oh my god! I was scared to death!"
"What happened?" he asked in a low voice.
"Just as I injected the medicine, Tian Danni woke up!"
Xiao Shuyuan gasped in shock. "Did she see it?"
"No. She was still dazed and hadn't fully come to her senses. She didn't see it."
"What medicine did you inject?"
He looked at her in a bit of panic, afraid it was something deadly.
Yan Yueyue's eyes curved into a smile. "You're really afraid I'd kill her off?"
"Then I'll kill you first! How dare you doubt me!"
Suddenly, a scolding voice came from behind.
"Which department are you two from? Making so much noise in the corridor. Is this proper?" The head - nurse's eyes were filled with anger.
Xiao Shuyuan immediately stepped in front of Yan Yueyue and apologized.
"We didn't mean to."
"I've never seen you two before. New interns? Answer my question!" the head - nurse squinted and observed them carefully.
Yan Yueyue stepped out from behind him and said rudely, "Do we have to answer whatever you ask? Ugly hag!"
"You, what did you say?!"
"Run!" Xiao Shuyuan grabbed her hand and rushed towards the stairs.
"Stop! Do you hear me!" The head - nurse stood at the top of the stairs and shouted down, afraid of disturbing other leaders and patients.
The bodyguards heard the commotion and trotted over.
"What's going on? Making such a fuss!"
"Ah, ah, I'm really sorry. Those two nurses just now…"
"Nurses?"
The bodyguard got goosebumps. "What about the nurses?"
The head - nurse was so scared that tears welled up in her eyes. "They, they seem to be two interns. I've never seen them before. I just wanted to ask them something, but unexpectedly, they ran away!"
"Damn it!"
He suddenly realized something. "You go and call the doctor. We'll go after them. There mustn't be any mistakes!"
"Okay, okay!" The head - nurse could only nod obediently.
Xiao Shuyuan and Yan Yueyue hurriedly took off their white coats, stuffed them into a pre - prepared garbage bag, and then threw it into the trash can after riding their electric scooter away.
Watching the speeding vehicle, the bodyguard gritted his teeth in anger.
"Damn it!" he cursed, then immediately started to compose a message.
Just as he was about to send it, he noticed the time.
After thinking for a while, he returned to the hospital in indignation.
Reporting to Su Minghan at this time would be like walking into a trap. It would be better to go back to the hospital first and see how Tian Danni was doing before drawing a conclusion.
The sun rose in the early morning.
Day - students of the university were streaming into the campus one after another.
"Yueyue? Where did you go last night?"
Xiao Shujing looked at Yan Yueyue who had just entered the dormitory and asked curiously.
"Ah… I went out for a late - night snack with A Yuan, so I didn't come back."
"Luckily the dormitory aunt didn't do a roll - call. Otherwise, you'd definitely lose some credits."
"Hehe, I'm really lucky."
Although Yan Yueyue pretended to be calm on the surface, she was extremely panicked inside.
She didn't know if last night's prank had been discovered.
But even if it was discovered, she'd take the blame alone.
She had long disliked Tian Danni and just wanted to teach her a lesson.
Just as Xiao Shujing was about to say something else, her phone rang.
The smile on her face bloomed instantly, and her voice became extremely gentle.
"Hello, Minghan?"
These two words were like a hammer hitting Yan Yueyue's heart.
She froze on the spot, not daring to move.
She pricked up her ears, trying to hear what was said.
"What? No way," Xiao Shujing gasped.
Oh no. It was completely over this time.
Just from her expression, Yan Yueyue could guess that the thing had been exposed.
Yan Yueyue hung her shoulders and slumped onto the chair.
Since it had been discovered, she might as well accept her fate.
When she planned this, she had already anticipated the worst outcome. Besides, what she did was just a small prank and had nothing to do with endangering someone's life.
"Yueyue, come here," Xiao Shujing said with a gloomy face.
"What's up?" Yan Yueyue pretended to be innocent.
"Tell me honestly. Where did you and Shuyuan go yesterday?"
