"Xiao Tian, hurry up and go!" Guo Linqing urged.
Lin Xiao Tian nodded and followed her out.
Actually, he didn't know what to say. There was no need to explain anything to Xia Qingling, was there?
But he still followed her out.
Now, only Guo Linqing was left in the room.
Guo Linqing felt extremely guilty.
Wasn't she breaking them up?
And the other person involved was her best friend.
She felt incomparably ashamed.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiao Tian quickly caught up with Xia Qingling.
"You don't need to say anything, I saw it all," Xia Qingling said indignantly.
Seeing that Xia Qingling was angry, Lin Xiao Tian didn't want to seek trouble, so he remained silent.
But seeing Lin Xiao Tian's demeanor, Xia Qingling became even more furious.
"Hey! Why aren't you saying anything?"
"Didn't you tell me not to speak?"
"You... Lin Xiao Tian!"
"Do I need to say anything?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
Xia Qingling stopped and glared at Lin Xiao Tian. "No!"
They walked together for a while. By the time they reached the entrance of the residential complex, Lin Xiao Tian invited Xia Qingling into the car. They were both heading to work.
Xia Qingling initially wanted to refuse, but there was only one bus stop nearby, and it was quite isolated. Getting a taxi would surely be troublesome, so she got into the car.
Inside the car, neither of them spoke. It wasn't until they were close to the National Medical Hall that Xia Qingling finally spoke.
"How far have you two gone?" Xia Qingling asked.
She had a demanding tone, but Lin Xiao Tian couldn't possibly answer that he and Guo Linqing had slept together, right?
"Don't you want to ask what we were doing just now?" Lin Xiao Tian reminded her.
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingling gritted her teeth in anger.
"Lin Xiao Tian, do you take me for a fool?"
"Then do you know what we were doing?"
"Lin Xiao Tian, you're such a pervert!"
"Why are you cursing me?"
"I'm cursing you, you pervert!"
Xia Qingling cursed for a while, and only after she had vented her anger did she notice something strange.
She knew that Lin Xiao Tian was not the type of person who liked to share such things. If that was the case, why would Lin Xiao Tian specifically mention it?
Could it be that they weren't doing "that"?
"Hey! What exactly were you doing?"
"I was detoxifying her."
"Detoxifying? What do you mean?"
"Guo Linqing was poisoned. The poison was the same one Dong Lin used on you last time."
"What?"
At this, Xia Qingling's eyes widened.
"Lin Qing is poisoned? Who did it?"
So, Lin Xiao Tian roughly explained the whole incident to Xia Qingling.
But upon learning that Guo Linqing had gone through such a dangerous ordeal, Xia Qingling was filled with rage.
"Cao Yun Tian! That lunatic!"
"Did he do anything to Lin Qing?"
"Did he?"
"That scoundrel, I'll kill him!"
One moment, Xia Qingling was a bit resentful towards Guo Linqing because of her situation with Lin Xiao Tian. But now, all she felt was worry for Guo Linqing.
Lin Xiao Tian did not mention his own intimate encounter with Guo Linqing, as it concerned Guo Linqing's personal matters. However, this led Xia Qingling to believe that Cao Yun Tian had done something to Guo Linqing.
After all, she had experienced the effects of that drug herself.
If the poison took effect, the victim would be completely unable to resist anything done to them.
"Don't worry... Lin Qing is fine, she was just a little startled. Cao Yun Tian couldn't do anything, and I arrived in time." Lin Xiao Tian omitted a great deal of detail.
Xia Qingling had a high opinion of Lin Xiao Tian's medical skills, and the people in her family said the same.
Therefore, when Lin Xiao Tian said this, Xia Qingling didn't doubt him.
"That's good! That's good!" Xia Qingling breathed a sigh of relief.
But what followed was deep guilt.
Guo Linqing had gone through such a dangerous ordeal, and she had been blaming her.
On the way, Xia Qingling continuously asked Lin Xiao Tian about Guo Linqing's current condition.
With the help of her family, even if she were poisoned, she could still receive treatment. However, the treatment process was very costly. Guo Linqing came from an ordinary family, and Xia Qingling couldn't help but worry.
"Lin Xiao Tian, you better cure Lin Qing, or I won't forgive you," Xia Qingling threatened.
Lin Xiao Tian helplessly spread his hands. "I know..."
Unknowingly, they had already arrived at the National Medical Hall.
Lin Xiao Tian asked Liang Xu to go back first, and he entered the National Medical Hall with Xia Qingling.
When Xu Qinghe saw Lin Xiao Tian and Xia Qingling get out of the same car, his eyebrows shot up.
What's going on?
Why was it Xia Qingling again?
Who exactly had Lin Xiao Tian gotten involved with?
Just as Xu Qinghe was wondering, Lin Xiao Tian suddenly called out to him.
"Director Xu, you're here at the perfect time. I have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Lin Qing asked me to help her take a day off. She's not feeling well today."
"Lin Qing?" As Xu Qinghe said this, his gaze instinctively fell on Xia Qingling.
"Director, I can vouch for it. Lin Qing is indeed sick today and cannot come to work," Xia Qingling added, thinking that Xu Qinghe suspected Lin Xiao Tian's words.
But she didn't know that Xu Qinghe wasn't concerned about the leave at all. He was just puzzled as to why Xia Qingling would vouch for Lin Xiao Tian. Shouldn't she be jealous?
Xu Qinghe was confused, but he still responded, "Okay, I understand."
After returning to the National Medical Hall, it was another busy morning.
In the afternoon, Guo Linqing also arrived. The three of them met at the entrance, but Xia Qingling, with great concern, took Guo Linqing's hand.
"Are you feeling any better?" Xia Qingling asked.
"I'm fine, it's all thanks to Xiao Tian," Guo Linqing replied.
"Hmph! Why thank him? He must be secretly pleased!"
Xia Qingling was completely unreserved in front of Lin Xiao Tian.
Lin Xiao Tian was accustomed to Xia Qingling's personality and didn't take it to heart.
Just as the three of them were talking, someone called out to Lin Xiao Tian.
Lin Xiao Tian turned his head and saw that the person who had arrived was Dong Lin.
Seeing Dong Lin appear, Xia Qingling couldn't contain her anger.
"You scoundrel, how dare you show your face here?"
"Qing Ling, it's all my fault. I was bewitched. I came here this time to apologize to you."
"No need, I don't accept it!"
After saying that, Xia Qingling pulled Guo Linqing's hand and walked inside.
Dong Lin took a few steps to catch up, but upon seeing Lin Xiao Tian, he suddenly stopped.
Lin Xiao Tian had no interest in Dong Lin. He was no longer afraid of the Dong family, so he ignored Dong Lin and turned to leave.
But Dong Lin called out to Lin Xiao Tian again.
"Lin Xiao Tian... no, Mr. Lin!"
"Is there something you need?" Seeing Dong Lin's humble demeanor, Lin Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel intrigued.
"That... Mr. Lin, I've come specifically to ask for your forgiveness. I was foolish before. I promise, from now on, I will never bother you and Qing Ling again!"
