Ye Wuyou raised his hand and gently stroked a strand of hair on Ning Xi's forehead. His fingertips gently stroked Ning Xi's cheek with a hint of ambiguity.

Ning Xi's face instantly became hot, her eyes opened wide, with fear and shyness intertwined in her eyes.

"Doctor Ning, you are really not right today."

Ye Wuyou's voice was low and gentle, sounding in Ning Xi's ears like a bewitching spell.

Ning Xi's lips trembled slightly. She wanted to explain but her words were incoherent: "I... Dean, I..."

Ye Wuyou stared at Ning Xi, his eyes gradually becoming cold. He grabbed Ning Xi's wrist with such force that Ning Xi couldn't help but let out a soft cry.

"I just realized now... So this is what you were thinking? You put something in my water cup, did you think I couldn't drink it?" Ye Wuyou's voice was filled with a hint of anger and disappointment.

Ning Xi was shocked. She didn’t expect that Ye Wuyou actually noticed something unusual.

"Dean, I... I have my own difficulties. Please listen to my explanation." Ning Xi pleaded, tears flashing in her eyes.

Ye Wuyou snorted coldly: "Difficulties? What difficulties can make you do such a thing? You even resorted to means like drugging. Doctor Ning, I really misjudged you."

"Dean, it's not what you think. Please listen to my explanation!" However, Ye Wuyou didn't give her any chance at all, and the disgust in his heart surged like a tide.

As a former medicine man, he has extraordinary perception and immunity to various drugs.

As soon as the water entered his mouth, he sensed something strange. While quietly spitting it out, he felt extremely chilled by Ning Xi's behavior.

"I trust you so much, but you want to drug me. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?" Ye Wuyou glared at Ning Xi and dragged her towards the door of the room.

Ning Xi struggled desperately, tears welling up in her eyes, "Dean, please listen to my explanation!"

But Ye Wuyou couldn't listen at all at this moment. He opened the door and threw Ning Xi out without mercy.

Ning Xi fell in the corridor and the door slammed shut in front of her.

She sat on the ground in a daze, tears streaming down her face.

Ning Xi hugged her knees with her hands, buried her head deeply in her arms, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

She knew she had made a mistake, but the grievance in her heart overwhelmed her.

Ye Wuyou was in the room, feeling very depressed.

He could never have imagined that Ning Xi would do such a thing.

He thought that a scheming person like Ning Xi would definitely find a way to find a new place to sleep after being thrown out by him. After all, she would always do whatever it takes to achieve her goals, just like trying to drug him today!

After Ning Xi was thrown out of the door, she was filled with despair and helplessness.

She didn't know where to go. The hotel corridors were deserted and her heart was filled with fear and guilt.

She curled up at the door, her body gradually invaded by the cold, but Ye Wuyou's angry eyes kept appearing in her mind, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.

As time went by, her body became weaker and weaker, and she finally fell into a drowsy sleep due to extreme fatigue and cold, talking nonsense from time to time.

In the middle of the night, Ye Wuyou tossed and turned in the room, unable to fall asleep.

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound coming from outside the door, like someone groaning in pain.

He was startled and got up to open the door, but was surprised to find that Ning Xi had been guarding the door and had not left.

At this moment, Ning Xi's face was flushed and her brows were furrowed. It was obvious that she had a high fever.

Ye Wuyou felt a sharp pain in his heart. He squatted down and gently touched Ning Xi's forehead. The hot touch made his brows frown even tighter.

Without any hesitation, Ye Wuyou carried Ning Xi into the room and carefully placed her on the bed.

He quickly found a towel, soaked it with cold water, and gently applied it to Ning Xi's forehead, trying to cool her down.

Looking at Ning Xi's weak appearance, his heart was full of contradictions.

He sat beside the bed, silently guarding Ning Xi, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Ye Wuyou’s thoughts began to drift away.

He recalled how Ning Xi worked diligently in the hospital on weekdays. Although she was a little mysterious sometimes, her concentration and responsibility when treating patients could not be faked.

He also recalled the time when they worked together on the operating table. Ning Xi was calm and professional at that time, and she was completely different from the fragile her at this moment.

This made him wonder whether Ning Xi was really as bad as she appeared to be, and whether there was some hidden story behind it that caused her to do such a thing.

In the confusion caused by the high fever, Ning Xi seemed to feel that someone was taking care of her.

Her lips trembled slightly, and she murmured, "Dean, I'm sorry... I didn't want to..."

Ye Wuyou heard her whisper, and his heart moved. He asked softly: "Then why did you do this? What is your reason?"

However, Ning Xi just repeated her apology in a half-asleep state and did not give him any substantive answer.

As time slowly passed, Ning Xi's body temperature dropped under Ye Wuyou's careful care.

Her brows gradually relaxed and her breathing became steadier.

Ye Wuyou's tense nerves finally relaxed slightly.

He rubbed his temples tiredly, and watched Ning Xi's condition gradually stabilize. He finally couldn't withstand the double fatigue of body and mind, and fell into a light sleep on the chair beside the bed.

The next morning, sunlight poured into the ward through the gaps in the window.

Ye Wuyou woke up driven by his biological clock. He first looked at Ning Xi and saw that she was still asleep. Although her face was still a little haggard, it was not as heartbreaking as last night.

He stood up quietly, straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, left a note to tell Ning Xi that he was going to participate in the exchange activity alone, and then quietly left the ward.

After the sound of the door closing, Ning Xi woke up slowly.

Her head was still a little dizzy, and for a moment she was in a daze, not knowing where she was.

When she got a clear look at her surroundings, the memories of last night came flooding back, and she was filled with guilt and regret.

At this time, she found the note left by Ye Wuyou and learned that he had gone to participate in a friendly exchange activity.

Ning Xi struggled to get up, washed up briefly, and hurried out.

She hurried out of the hotel and took a taxi to the hospital.

When the car arrived at the hospital gate, Ning Xi saw from afar a group of people rushing towards the hospital in an excited manner. The people leading them were holding signs with words like "Quack doctors harming people" in their hands.

Her heart tightened, and after getting out of the car, she quickened her pace towards the hospital.

At this time, Ye Wuyou was standing not far away. He had just realized that this was a medical dispute and was about to step forward to understand the situation, but the group of people had already rushed towards him like a surging tide, their eyes full of anger and hostility.

"Dean, be careful!"

Seeing this, Ning Xi became anxious and didn't care about her own weakness. She rushed over without hesitation, pushed Ye Wuyou away, and stood in front of him.
