696 Poison

“You look nervous.”

As Qin Xi spoke, she stared into the nurse’s eyes. The nurse was afraid that Qin Xi would notice something. She kept thinking of a plan to escape.

“I…”

As soon as she said the word, she immediately realized something. She cleared her throat and said in a relaxed tone, “You must be mistaken. I’m not nervous. I just feel a little cold. You’re the patient’s family, right? Then hurry up and go in to check the patient. I’m sorry, I’ll have to leave first.”

As she spoke, she was about to walk past Qin Xi and leave.

Qin Xi narrowed her eyes and immediately blocked her way. “Wait, I still have something to say. Why are you leaving so soon?”

A trace of panic flashed across the nurse’s face, but she still smiled and said calmly, “I’m sorry. I’m very busy with work and don’t have time to waste. Please be understandable.”

The nurse calculated the time in her mind. Seeing that it was almost time, she wanted to leave the scene as soon as possible, but how could Qin Xi let her go so easily?

Xia Tangxin was alone in the ward. Although she looked a little haggard, there was a happy smile on her face.

As soon as Han Shi entered, Xia Tangxin rolled her eyes and said angrily, “Why is it you? Where’s Xi? Are you the only one here?”

Han Shi looked at the old lady’s pale face and slightly purple lips. He frowned and looked at He Xu. “Why do I feel that something is wrong? Deputy Dean He, come and take a look. Old Madam Xia’s lips don’t look right.”

He Xu quickly walked over to take a closer look. In the end, he broke out in cold sweat and quickly shouted at Qin Xi, “Young divine doctor, come and take a look. Old Madam Xia seems to be poisoned.”

Qin Xi’s eyes narrowed. She immediately grabbed the back of the nurse’s neck and dragged her into the house. Then, she threw her to Han Shi. “Watch her. This person is up to no good.”

Han Shi nodded. He grabbed the nurse and pressed her against the wall.

The nurse struggled and scolded angrily, “Let go of me. What right do you have to treat me like this? Let go. If you don’t let go, I’ll shout that you are molesting me.”

“Molesting you? Do you think you’re worthy of being molested by me?”

Han Shi did not even look at her, as if he had seen something dirty.

At this moment, Qin Xi suddenly said solemnly, “She’s indeed poisoned. Moreover, this poison is very rare. It’s a poison extraction from a snake. This poison won’t kill people immediately. Instead, it will only take effect after more than ten minutes.”

She suddenly looked at Xia Tangxin, who was already pale with fear. “Tangxin, did she eat anything or get an injection just now?”

Xia Tangxin immediately reacted. She pointed at the nurse who was pressed against the wall by Han Shi and said, “She just gave Grandma an injection. She said that it was anti-inflammatory, so I believed her. I didn’t expect…”

He Xu’s face instantly darkened. He looked at the nurse. “What? How is that possible?”

Qin Xi sneered and said, “Nothing is impossible. If you don’t believe me, you can search her body.”

He Xu did not want such a hideous thing to happen in the hospital. He strode to the nurse’s side and rummaged through her pockets.

The nurse screamed in fear, “Ahhh, someone is molesting me. Help!”
