Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Miss Xia, a nurse in the ward called out, pausing her actions and stepping back as Xia Wan hurried in.

Xia Wan arrived at Xia Ruts bedside and gently examined her condition. What medications have been administered? she inquired, eyeing the tray beside Xia Rus bed.

We havent administered any medications today, the nurse replied softly.

Xia Wans eyebrows furrowed slightly. She gave the nurse a brief look and said,

Okay, thank you. You may leave for now.

After a moments hesitation, the nurse made her way out of the ward.

Chen MO, who had been standing at the door, watched the nurse leave before stepping further inside. Did you find anything? he asked.

Xia Wan, focused, placed her hand on Xia Ruts wrist, checking her pulse. She remained silent for a while before finally releasing her hand.

Please, everyone, step outside, she said to Doctor Li and Chen MO, who were closely following her actions.

Without hesitation, Doctor Li turned and left the ward.

Lets keep the ward clear for now, Xia Wan advised as she pulled back the blanket from Xia Ru.

Understanding, Chen MO nodded, said a quick Okay, and followed Doctor Li out, gently closing the ward door behind him.

Xia Wan retrieved silver needles from her bag and carefully placed them at several acupuncture points on Xia Ruts arms, wrists, and chest. She then waited in silence.

A few minutes pa.s.sed before a voice echoed from the doorway. The head of the

County Central Hospital has arrived.

They cannot enter at the moment, Chen MO stated, arms crossed, leaning against the door.

Blocking the door like this could delay the rescue! Every minute counts in saving the patients life, an anxious, unfamiliar voice protested.

That doesnt change things, Chen MO replied firmly.

Another voice, softer this time, attempted to persuade, Perhaps you could step aside to let us a.s.sess the patient?

Standing here like this, if the patients condition worsens, it would be akin to costing a life! the first voice argued again.

Were handling it. No need for concern, Chen MO insisted, unwavering.

Doctor Li, what should we do now? the gentler voice seemed to seek advice from Doctor Li.

You specifically asked us to come, but now that were here, were not even allowed to see the patient

Dont worry, Director w.a.n.g, Ill discuss it with him, Doctor Li attempted to soothe the other party, though he himself was unsure of how to convince Chen Mo.

Chen MO remained steadfast, refusing entry to anyone without Xia Wans permission.

Outside the ward, a tense atmosphere prevailed, while inside, Xia Wans expression grew increasingly grave.

Xia Rut s condition seemed more serious than a mere fainting spellit appeared as if shed been drugged or even poisoned.

After examining Xia Ru, Xia Wan couldnt immediately identify the cause of her fainting and rapidly weakening breath.

If it was a potent poison, there should have been some indicators, yet it seemed as if she had simply pa.s.sed out.

If the situation persisted, Xia Ru might tragically lose her life in her sleep.

Without a clear solution, Xia Wan focused on slowing the progression of the poison.

Ten minutes later, a faint color returned to Xia Rus cheeks, and Xia Wan exhaled deeply in relief.

She rose and opened the door from inside.

Chen MO instantly reacted, turning to face Xia Wan and inquiring, How is she

Xia Wan nodded towards Chen MO, then addressed Doctor Li, Could you please gather everyone in the conference room? I have questions to ask. Certainly, Doctor Li nodded, then turned to address the other doctors present, Gentlemen

Xia Wan glanced at them and asked, Are you from the Central Hospital?

Yes, one of the doctors, his face serious and stubbled, grunted in response.

Another doctor, younger in appearance, adjusted his gla.s.ses and said, Miss, leave the patient to us. You can trust us; we are professionals

Theres no point in talking to her. Shes already delayed our rescue efforts. If the patient doesnt survive, shell be held responsible, the stubbled doctor interjected.

Director Zhu, thats not fair. Theyre not familiar with emergency procedures; thats why there was a delay, the younger doctor intervened, trying to calm the situation..
