Late in the night.
The patients in the critical care ward, one by one, began to show new symptoms.
"Quick! Hurry and send them over, the Princess ordered them all to be burned! Hurry!"
The patients started to have diarrhea.
All contaminated clothes and utensils, after being sent out, were gathered and burned to ashes.
The critical care ward reeked of foul odors.
Everyone felt as if they were living in hell.
Whether this was what the Princess called an improvement, no one knew. In any case, the entire latter half of the night was a living hell in the critical care ward.
"That woman actually took off her mask and stayed with everyone? Isn't she afraid of getting infected herself?"
When the news was sent back, Chu Minghao frowned, his face filled with disgust. "The ward is so foul-smelling, and she can still stay there. As expected, they are all dirty people!"
His dislike for Chu Qianli grew even stronger!
To gain a little good reputation, she didn't even care about her own life. Was this woman naive or foolish?
"Mr. Lan, don't you think that woman is too ridiculous? From this prince's perspective, she must have been accustomed to hardship in the past to be able to stay with those smelly patients."
"And Feng Ye Xuan... someone as divine as him, because he got too close to Chu Qianli, has also become so vulgar and unbearable. It's simply laughable that he can still stay in the critical care ward!"
By staying with those dirty patients, they too had become dirty and unbearable.
The thought of the patients' filth made Chu Minghao feel so nauseous that he almost vomited everything he had eaten the night before.
Just thinking about it made him so disgusted, he couldn't imagine how Feng Ye Xuan and Chu Qianli could endure it.
Did they really stay with the patients all night?
He looked at Lan Fan.
Unexpectedly, Lan Fan showed no smile. Instead, his brows were furrowed, lost in thought.
"Mr. Lan?" For some reason, seeing Lan Fan's expression, Chu Minghao suddenly felt uneasy.
"Sir, what are you thinking about?"
Lan Fan's train of thought was interrupted. He raised his eyes and glanced at him.
At this moment, Chu Minghao was lying on the soft couch, wrapped in a blanket.
It was already the early hours of the morning. The reason they hadn't slept yet was because the critical care ward had caused such a commotion tonight. They were all waiting.
They were waiting for Chu Qianli to handle the situation, and if she couldn't, they would take over.
As long as the patients in the critical care ward dared to escape, Chu Minghao would immediately dispatch his guards to kill any escaping patients without mercy.
They absolutely could not let them escape to other villages and spread the epidemic.
But they didn't expect that until now, even though everyone was desperate, because that damned Chu Qianli was willing to take off her mask and be with them, they had all become obedient.
However, now, most people probably didn't want to escape because they were too sick to do so.
"Your Highness, what are your plans?" Lan Fan, lost in his own thoughts, looked serious.
Seeing his expression, Chu Minghao immediately became serious as well.
He cleared his throat before saying, "This prince is preparing."
"Oh?" Lan Fan raised an eyebrow. "May I know how Your Highness plans to proceed?"
"Currently, the critical care ward is in chaos, and the patients' conditions are worsening. Sir, you've heard it just now."
It was said that they were vomiting and having diarrhea, and some were unconscious. It was likely that many would not survive until tomorrow.
"If there is a large-scale death of patients in the critical care ward, this prince will immediately send people to burn down the entire critical care ward!"
