Chapter 66 Killing the Patient
Sheng Tingwangmo lowered his gaze slightly.
Needle? Medicine?
His sharp, murderous gaze swept over Zhao Jingyi, and he demanded, "What is this thing?"
"Tingwang, don't listen to Aunt Wang's nonsense, it was her..." Zhao Jingyi immediately retorted, "...It was Aunt Wang who wanted to give Wen Shuyi some kind of injection. I found out, Tingwang, it was me who found out. I was just about to stop her when you arrived. She...she's a bad person."
Aunt Wang has lived most of her life.
It was splashed with dirty water.
Even if the uncle can tolerate it, the aunt cannot.
"I never expected that someone so young could be so wicked. I'm not a nurse, where would I get the syringes and medicine?" Aunt Wang tried to explain to Sheng Tingwang.
He raised his fingertips.
The air suddenly became still.
Zhao Jingyi opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't dare to utter a sound.
Sheng Tingwang's steps were heavy.
His usually piercing eyes were now filled with disappointment towards Zhao Jing.
"Gu Lin and I," he said in a low voice, but each word was clear, "we grew up together, we're like brothers..."
He paused, his eyes filled with suppressed impatience for Zhao Jingyi. "You really are a disgrace to Gu Lin."
Those few words were squeezed out from between his teeth.
Zhao Jingyi's body went limp.
She wasn't alarmed that so many patients died abroad every year.
Why did she panic so much after just a few words from Sheng Tingwang?
"Brother Tingwang, let me explain..."
Sheng Tingwang didn't look again, and Zhao Jingyi's face turned pale instantly.
He strode over to Wen Shuyi's bedside and stopped.
She slept peacefully, pale and fragile.
She didn't even know Zhao Jingyi, had no grudge against her, yet she was being hurt...
He reached out, his fingertips lightly lifting the corner of the blanket.
He carefully examined the areas that were usually hidden by neat clothing.
The inner sides of slender arms, waist, inner thighs, even...
Everywhere there were shocking traces.
Some of them are due to blood stasis, and in some places, the skin and flesh are still red and swollen.
Sheng Tingwang's fingers, gripping the corner of the blanket, began to tremble uncontrollably.
It wasn't anger, but something sharper and heavier than anger, like a red-hot iron, searing the softest part of his heart, again and again.
He actually...
He made Wen Shuyi suffer such pain right under his nose.
Can't speak, can't cry out in pain, can't even frown, so they deserve to suffer this kind of abuse?
The crimson blood in Sheng Tingwang's eyes began to spread.
His chest heaved violently, like a volcano about to erupt, threatening to tear him apart.
He actually let her suffer so much, all alone and helpless.
He was completely unaware of it.
"Aunt Wang, call Dr. Gu and ask him to come over."
Suppressing his murderous rage, Sheng Tingwang, with a sliver of remaining rationality, told him to leave the matter to Gu Lin.
Gu Lin received a phone call.
Almost without delay, we drove to Jiangyang Avenue.
Aunt Wang said a few things on the phone.
He realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Why did you call me over in such a hurry..." Gu Lin saw Zhao Jingyi standing to the side, and Sheng Tingwang, whose eyes had turned bloodshot. "...I heard from Aunt Wang that...Jingyi is going to give Wen Shuyi some kind of injection?"
"Cousin..." Zhao Jingyi carefully sidled up to Gu Lin, "...It's all a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to hurt Wen Shuyi. It was that old woman, Aunt Wang, it was her..."
Gu Lin glanced at Zhao Jingyi, then quickly asked Sheng Tingwang, "...Tingwang, what's going on?"
Sheng Tingwang tossed the syringe to Gu Lin.
"You're a doctor, can you tell what's in here?"
Gu Lin glanced at Zhao Jingyi.
He pulled her close and asked, "What's in here? Are you going to tell me yourself, or should I tell you?"
"I... I told you, I didn't do it, it was that old woman, Aunt Wang..."
Gu Lin dripped the medicine from the syringe directly onto the back of his hand.
I looked down and took a sniff.
After a careful examination, he raised his hand and slapped Zhao Jingyi hard across the face. "You gave Wen Shuyi this kind of injection? Are you trying to kill her?"
"I...I told you..." Zhao Jingyi tried to argue.
Gu Lin slapped her again without any hesitation, "...Zhao Jingyi, you're a terrible person. I asked you to take care of Wen Shuyi because you're a nurse. Tingwang pays you such a high salary, and you want to kill his wife? What were you thinking?"
"I, I..."
Gu Lin felt guilty towards Sheng Tingwang.
He and Sheng Tingwang had been friends for decades.
This was all ruined by Zhao Jingyi.
"Let's take Wen Shuyi to the hospital for a check-up first. As for Zhao Jingyi, I won't show any favoritism; let's call the police directly."
Gu Lin made his stance clear.
Zhao Jingyi quit.
She hadn't expected Gu Lin to side with outsiders. "Cousin, whose side are you on? You're even calling the police? What good will it do you to have me arrested?"
"If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. I'm not your shield."
There's no room for negotiation with Gu Lin.
Zhao Jingyi was not about to obediently wait for the police to arrest her.
Taking advantage of the lull in the time it took to take Wen Shuyi to the hospital, he ran away.
……
in the hospital.
Sheng Tingwang and Gu Lin were busy giving Wen Shuyi various examinations.
Running up and down the stairs.
He really wanted to apologize to Sheng Tingwang.
He was the one who found the person.
He thought that even if it was just for the money, it was still better to be family than to hire a stranger.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingyi pulled this stunt.
The two pushed Wen Shuyi into the elevator.
Sheng Tingwang remained silent.
Gu Lin didn't know what to say.
Wen Shuyi blinked, but no one noticed.
She seemed to be floating in mid-air, being pushed around, going to do this test one minute and that test the next.
She heard two men talking.
It's so noisy.
She was sleeping very well.
Why does my whole body ache when I wake up?
Who hit her?
Wen Shuyi's fingers curled up weakly, and after struggling to open his eyes several times, he finally managed to open them a crack.
Where is this?
Is it a hospital?
Why did she come to the hospital?
"Dr. Liu just sent me a message saying that the results of my heart exam are in, and thankfully, everything is normal."
"Why would Zhao Jingyi do such a thing? Gu Lin, she's your cousin, you know her. Why? Is it because she's unhappy with me? I have no grudge against her, do I?"
"I really don't know why she did this. I've already called the police, and they'll give me the results soon. Tingwang, I'm so sorry. If I had known she was like this, how could I have recommended her to you? I really..."
"She earned more as a nurse abroad than in China. You should have asked her why she suddenly returned to China."
"It was my oversight."
Wen Shuyi's ears were ringing.
Who's speaking?
very noisy.
very noisy.
Can you please shut up?
The elevator doors opened.
The hospital gurney jolted slightly.
Wen Shuyi felt like she was carsick, nauseous and wanting to vomit.
But now she is so weak that even breathing is difficult for her.
The disinfectant smell is pungent.
Who is the man pulling the cart ahead?
Who is this person in the white coat?
Where should we take her?
Are they going to take out her liver?
Wen Shuyi shouted with all her might, but the result was... as soft as a sigh.
The perceptive Gu Lin still managed to hear it.
He stopped in his tracks and asked Sheng Tingwang, "Did you just sigh?"
"Why should I sigh?"
"Did you hear someone sigh just now?"
Could it be haunted?
It's not uncommon for hospitals to be haunted.
Sheng Tingwang replied listlessly, "Didn't hear you."
