"It's fine, I'll use another restroom as well," Wang Chao said.
After saying that, he passed by Shen Bing and quickly approached the toilet, sniffing it and his expression darkened.
Indeed, there was that smell in the bathroom.
He carefully searched and found a tiny amount of powder on the toilet seat.
He hurriedly rushed out of the bathroom and found Shen Bing.
"You just used the restroom, why did you come out so quickly?" Shen Bing looked at Wang Chao with a puzzled expression.
"My business can wait, but right now the most important thing is, did you sit on the toilet seat when you used the restroom just now?" Wang Chao asked.
"I used the restroom, but I didn't sit on the toilet seat. Did I sit on the floor or something?" Shen Bing replied, questioning.
"That's not good. You're likely to have been affected. Take a shower quickly," Wang Chao urged.
"What affected? What are you talking about?"
"Somebody infiltrated our room and sprinkled powder on our bed, shoes, toilet seat, and many other places."
"Powder?"
Shen Bing's expression also changed upon hearing this.
Wang Chao walked to Shen Bing's bed and wiped off some of the thinly scattered powder, handing it to Shen Bing.
The powder was a pale yellow color, very similar to human skin. It blended with the golden luxury bed sheets, making it almost impossible to distinguish.
Moreover, this cruise ship was specially tailored for the wealthy, with gold-plated toilet seats, making the powder even less noticeable.
Shen Bing's face darkened upon seeing the powder. "Who did this?"
"I don't know either. The powder wasn't there when we first came in, but it appeared after we returned. Someone must have sprinkled it while we were on the deck."
Wang Chao handed Shen Bing a tissue and wiped off the powder in his hand. He said, "I don't have any silver or gold needles with me right now, so I can't perform acupuncture treatment for you. You need to take a shower immediately, and remember, take a cold shower."
Without hesitation, Shen Bing took out a change of clothes from the suitcase and headed to the bathroom.
Not long after, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.
"I hope it works. If I had known this would happen, I would have brought the silver and gold needles with me," Wang Chao sighed bitterly.
He originally thought it was just a business trip and didn't expect such a situation. Now he could only hope that Shen Bing didn't absorb much of the True Love Powder. Otherwise, if it triggered a reaction and he couldn't find the silver and gold needles, he would have to resort to massage and acupressure.
Just then, the sound of running water stopped in the bathroom.
Wang Chao anxiously asked, "President Shen, how do you feel now?"
A weak voice came from the bathroom, "I... I can't. I feel so hot all over, burning up, and my head is spinning."
"Wang Chao, what should we do now?"
Wang Chao's expression turned grim upon hearing this. He said, "First, dry yourself off and put on your clothes. We'll go to the ship's doctor to see if they have any medicine or silver needles for treatment."
"Okay."
Shen Bing's voice was weak as she replied, followed by the sound of movement.
Bang!
Just as Wang Chao was waiting, there was a sudden sound of a fall from the bathroom, along with Shen Bing's cry of pain.
"President Shen!"
Wang Chao's heart skipped a beat, filled with worry. He immediately opened the bathroom door and rushed in.
Inside the bathroom, Shen Bing had fallen to the floor, curled up, with her clothes not properly worn, revealing her fair skin.
"Heavy breathing~~"
Shen Bing's hair was damp, her face flushed, and her skin had a sickly pink hue.
She gasped for breath, her eyes filled with fear as she weakly said, "Wang Chao, my head is spinning. Please... help me..."
Wang Chao's heart sank when he saw this.
Oh no!
Shen Bing was indeed poisoned!
Looking at Shen Bing, there was no improper desire in his eyes, only deep concern for her.
He considered himself not a virtuous gentleman, but he wouldn't take advantage of someone in such a weak state.
Shen Bing was poisoned and in such a vulnerable state. If he took advantage of her at this moment, would not he be worse than an animal?
Wang Chao went outside and found a large bath towel from the cabinet. He walked into the bathroom and draped it over Shen Bing's body, covering the most important parts securely.
He also found a towel and gently dried Shen Bing's hair.
After doing all of this, he carefully lifted Shen Bing in his arms and walked out.
At this point, Shen Bing's breathing became more rapid, her body temperature higher than expected, and she was running a fever. Her heartbeat was also getting faster.
"President Shen, hold on. You must maintain your consciousness. I'll take you to the ship's doctor immediately."
Wang Chao's expression changed, and he held Shen Bing even tighter as he rushed out.
This powder is even more powerful than anticipated!
If they didn't find silver needles for treatment soon, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As he spoke, he pushed open the door and entered the corridor.
"Divine Eye!"
Without hesitation, Wang Chao activated his Divine Eye, gathering surging Genius Qi into his eyes, making his vision incredibly sharp and transparent. Under the scrutiny of his Divine Eye, everything in the cabin became transparent, and he knew everything that was happening.
Soon, he found the location of the ship's doctor and quickly dashed towards it.
Swift as a leopard!
In just over ten seconds, he crossed hundreds of meters and arrived at the door of the ship's doctor.
This was the room where the ship's doctor worked. It was spacious, with a ward, a sofa, and even a companion bed, more luxurious than a hospital room.
The interior decoration was also exceptionally luxurious, and even the uniforms of the ship's doctor and nurses were unique.
Even the ship's doctor and nurses had exceptionally good looks. The male doctor was tall, handsome, and imposing, while the female nurse was gentle, beautiful, and graceful.
"Where are the silver needles?"
Carrying Shen Bing, Wang Chao rushed in, his eyes sharp as lightning, scanning everything in the ship's medical room.
Inside the ship's medical room, there were three female doctors, one male doctor, and eight nurses.
When they saw Wang Chao and Shen Bing enter, they all stood up.
The female doctors and nurses had solemn expressions and were about to step forward. At this moment, the only male doctor stood up and said in a deep voice, "All of you, leave. Let me handle this."
"Director, but..."
The female doctors and nurses were all taken aback.
This action seemed to go against the rules.
"I am the director. I have the final say here. All of you, leave," the male director emphasized.
The female doctors and nurses looked at each other, but in the end, they didn't dare to speak and left directly.
After seeing the female doctors and nurses leave, the director said to Wang Chao, "The patient is ill, right? Bring her in."
Wang Chao walked in and placed Shen Bing on a hospital bed, asking, "Do you have silver needles?"
The director glanced at Wang Chao and said, "I am the doctor. Just hand the patient over to me. I'll treat her. Now, you should leave too."
"I should leave too?" Wang Chao frowned.
Shen Bing's condition was clearly abnormal. She was not properly dressed, only covered in a bathrobe.
According to common practice, this kind of situation should be treated by female doctors and nurses, while male doctors should step aside.
Yet, this director had dismissed all the female doctors and nurses and now wanted to drive him away. What was his intention?
"I said, we'll treat this patient. You will only disrupt our work by standing here. Please leave immediately!" the director uttered sternly.
His attitude was strong, arrogant, and he did not even give Wang Chao a chance to speak.
While speaking, he even tried to push Wang Chao, wanting to push him away.
Wang Chao's expression turned cold, and he immediately grabbed the director's hand, his voice icy, "What are you trying to do?"
