Chapter One Thousand and One: Speaking English is My Pride
As dusk approached, Tang Ruoxue showed up at the isolation hospital with a silent look on her face.
The exhausted Ye Fan sat on a bench in the corridor, drinking water and asking the woman:
"Did you get a tetanus shot?"
"Come here and check my pulse.
He was always thinking about the wound on Tang Ruoxue's wrist. After treating the serious patients in the afternoon, he ran out to look for Tang Ruoxue.
As a result, Tang Qiqi informed Tang Ruoxue that she had something to do and went out.
This made Ye Fan feel a little anxious, blaming the woman for not paying attention to the wound. It was such a big deal that she should just get an injection before leaving.
"The isolation hospital ran out of tetanus shots, so I went to the disease control hospital to get a shot."
Tang Ruoxue forced out a smile and responded:
"Don't worry, I'm fine. You don't have to worry. I'm an adult and I can take care of myself no matter what."
"By the way, how is the patient's condition?"
Seeing Ye Fan almost collapsed, Tang Ruoxue had a touch of pity in her eyes, and wanted to step forward and touch Ye Fan's head, but finally stopped abruptly.
She didn't get close to Mark, sat down on the bench opposite him and asked, "Do you need me to do anything else?"
"Thirty-six patients, twelve of them are in serious condition of zombie disease, but Nianhua and I have controlled their condition."
Although it felt like Tang Ruoxue was deliberately keeping a distance from herself, Ye Fan didn't think much about it. He poured a sip of soda water and said:
"The remaining 24 people will be treated tomorrow. As long as the situation no longer mutates, we are confident that they can return to normal."
"It's just that you need a period of rest after treatment, otherwise you will easily get irritated and get sick again."
Ye Fan comforted Tang Ruoxue: "You don't have to worry about them, I will make them get better. Just concentrate on dealing with Tang Hailong."
"Rather than dealing with Tang Hailong, I hope these patients recover."
Tang Ruoxue's pretty face had a hint of loneliness: "I have made too many mistakes, it's time to accumulate some virtue."
Ye Fan was slightly startled: "Gathering virtue?"
"I have harmed so many people, and I should make up for it."
Tang Ruoxue reacted immediately and forced out a smile: "By the way, isn't the patient suffering from hydrophobia? How could he become a zombie?"
"I seem to remember answering you this question."
Ye Fan looked at the woman and whispered:
"It may be that there has been no medication for this month, or it may be the sequelae of Tiantang Health Wine. The specific results will take some time to investigate."
"Ruoxue, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel like you're a little lost?"
"Are you too tired after having tetanus, or are you too mentally stressed these days?"
Ye Fan's eyes flashed with confusion, he stood up and sat next to Tang Ruoxue, trying to grab her hand and feel her pulse.
"I guess I'm too tired after a long day of work."
Tang Ruoxue shrank her hands like lightning, and stood up to cover up:
"Ye Fan, I'm sorry. I was bitten this afternoon and my hand is a bit conditioned by outsiders."
"But I'm really fine, you don't need to see a doctor for me."
She raised another smile: "You must be tired after treating so many people. Take Nianhua and the others back to rest. I will have someone pick you up tomorrow."
Ye Fan always felt that this woman was weird, but he didn't have the energy to think too much. He was so tired that he was holding on to the wall.
There were twelve patients, each of Nian Hua was responsible for two, and Ye Fan was responsible for six. He used the "Six Paths to Conquer Demons" acupuncture six times, which had already exhausted all his strength.
If it weren't for the support of the Tai Chi Sutra, Ye Fan would probably have collapsed in the ward.
He nodded slightly and then followed Tang Ruoxue to the elevator.
When he just turned the corner, Ye Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. He saw a man and a woman lingering at the door of Ward No. 1, the old man with a red nose.
Although the other party was also wearing protective clothing and a mask, his sneaky look made Ye Fan take a few more glances.
The woman with short hair looked through the glass window of the door and took pictures inside with her mobile phone.
The lean man looked around and then fiddled with the locked door with a paper clip.
"Click——"
When the phone flashed, Ye Fan was shocked.
Tang Ruoxue also turned around in an instant and shouted to the two of them: "What are you doing?"
The two of them were obviously shocked, and they didn't expect that their actions would be noticed by others.
They took advantage of the shift change to sneak in, and they were wearing protective clothing, so they shouldn't arouse others' suspicion.
But they looked at each other and quickly calmed down.
The short-haired woman shrugged and said in English: "Sorry, we don't understand what you are saying?"
Hearing the other party pretending to speak English, Tang Ruoxue frowned slightly and shouted in English:
"I said, what are you doing here?"
The short-haired woman sneered and replied in English: "We are here to visit relatives, what's wrong?"
"This is an isolation hospital."
“You must make an appointment to visit!”
"And you said you were visiting relatives. Who is your relative? What is his name? When was he sent in?"
Tang Ruoxue recovered from the confusion about her pregnancy, her pretty face sank and she asked the two of them questions repeatedly.
The reason why these patients were taken advantage of by Tang Hailong was that their families sold them to Tang Hailong as chess pieces and made some money along the way.
It's too late for them to abandon these burdens, so how can they come to visit the patients whether they are alive or dead?
"Who are you? What right do you have to question us?"
The short-haired woman was stunned at first, and then said tit for tat: "You don't look like a policeman, let alone a doctor. What right do you have to ask us?"
The lean man also shouted with a straight face: "Don't meddle in other people's business."
They looked very unhappy and seemed to blame Ye Fan and Tang Ruoxue for disturbing their good deeds.
Ye Fan frowned and glanced at the two people. Although the other person was wearing a mask and couldn't see his true face, his temperament and adaptability were beyond the comparison of ordinary people.
Especially the short-haired woman, whose figure looks petite and whose protective clothing is out of place, gives people an aura of agility, like a volcano that is about to erupt at any time.
"Do not talk nonsense!"
At this moment, Tang Ruoxue coughed and pointed at the phone in the woman's palm: "Delete the photo."
"Photo? What photo?"
The short-haired woman swooped and hid her phone:
"Don't say I don't have a photo. Even if I have a photo, why should I give it to you?"
She looked at Mark with contempt: "It's not your turn to dictate what we do."
"This is an isolation hospital, and all patients' privacy should be kept confidential."
"And this floor has been reserved by us to treat a group of special patients, so we have the right to refuse non-family members and unofficial visits or photos."
Ye Fan explained patiently: "We don't know your identities, but we still hope that you will cooperate to avoid any unpleasantness."
He hadn't spoken English for a while. Just to solve the problem, he had to work hard to organize a verbal response.
"If you say you can't shoot, you can't shoot. Who do you think you are? Are you interfering with our freedom?"
The short-haired woman snorted disdainfully at Mark: "Zhan Feixiang, let's go!"
The lean man also nodded: "Okay, Mu Xiangxi."
After finishing speaking, the two ignored Ye Fan and Tang Ruoxue and walked towards the elevator with their hands in their pockets.
Tang Ruoxue tilted her head slightly: "Stop them!"
Tang Qi waved his left hand, and several Tang bodyguards immediately surrounded him.
Seeing that her way was blocked, the short-haired woman became furious and shouted in Chinese: "You try to touch us?"
Ye Fan sneered: "You can speak Chinese, why are you pretending to be a foreigner?"
"I have obtained the citizenship of Eagle Country."
Mu Xiangxi's face turned cold: "Since noon the day before yesterday, my aunt is no longer from China. Speaking English is my pride."
