Chapter 127: Chapter 127 She Took Sleeping Pills
Tang Yuxiu felt a wave of irritation listening to Xiang Linghao’s words.
He looked at the unconscious Gu Yan. Everything she said was true; she was only trying to gather medical expenses for her father.
And he, not only did he not believe her at all, but he also treated her so horribly! Now, her lying here was entirely his doing!
Gu Yan’s expressions at the time flashed through his mind; she was very desperate and disappointed.
What on earth had he done!
For the first time, Tang Yuxiu felt regret.
Xiang Linghao noticed his odd expression, seemingly understanding a bit of the situation, knowing that this young woman’s current condition probably had something to do with Tang Yuxiu.
"Step aside for a moment, let me take a look at her."
Tang Yuxiu moved a few steps to the side, but his eyes remained fixed on Gu Yan’s face.
Xiang Linghao reached for her forehead to check her temperature, but Tang Yuxiu’s gaze suddenly became incredibly sharp, as if to pierce his hand.
Xiang Linghao abruptly stopped two inches away from her forehead, then withdrew his hand, turning to Tang Yuxiu with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "I’m just checking her temperature, is there any need to be so hostile? I’m a doctor, I have no other thoughts about your woman."
"Hmph." Tang Yuxiu snorted coldly, "Bring the thermometer, is it necessary for you to check it by hand?"
Xiang Linghao curled his lip, wondering how this woman could endure someone like him for long without shaving years off her life.
Tang Yuxiu rudely snatched the thermometer from his hand, glaring at him displeasedly, "Turn around."
Xiang Linghao felt a sense of melancholy; he had given him an oral thermometer, not one placed in clothing, yet he still had to turn around, ridiculous!
Under Tang Yuxiu’s fierce gaze, Xiang Linghao reluctantly turned around, thinking to himself, one day if you fall into my hands, I’m keeping grudges, I’ll torment you to death!
Tang Yuxiu had no idea what he was thinking, placing the thermometer in Gu Yan’s mouth, fixing his gaze on her.
After a while, he took out the thermometer and handed it to Xiang Linghao. Xiang Linghao glanced at it and said lightly, "She has a fever, thirty-nine point eight degrees, quite severe."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuxiu frowned, "Is the reason she can’t wake up due to the high fever?"
Xiang Linghao suddenly looked at him like he was an idiot, "The girl is sleeping, but the high fever is partly to blame."
Tang Yuxiu returned the look as if he were looking at an idiot, "Who sleeps so deeply they can’t be awakened with a shake."
"I say, Young Master Tang, are you pretending not to know, or do you really not know? Didn’t you see the sleeping pills with the cap off on the bedside table? She took sleeping pills!"
Startled, Tang Yuxiu turned around and grabbed the sleeping pills from the bedside table, anxiously checking how many were left inside, that woman actually took sleeping pills! It made him furious!
Xiang Linghao slowly said, "Don’t worry, don’t panic, she didn’t take much, just four or five pills. When we give her an IV, we’ll add some medication to dilute it a bit, she’ll probably wake up after a day and a night."
Tang Yuxiu glared at him, "A day and a night?" Does it need to be that long?
Xiang Linghao was speechless, "Young Master, she took sleeping pills and has a high fever, I guarantee by tomorrow afternoon she’ll be waking up!"
"Tomorrow afternoon?" Tang Yuxiu squinted his eyes slightly, "It’s already past midnight, technically it’s a new day, and she still has to sleep until tomorrow afternoon?"
Xiang Linghao felt exasperated, "Alright, alright, I was wrong, I meant this afternoon, OK?!"
Only then was Tang Yuxiu slightly satisfied.
