“Let go of me, I’m going to kill you, you’re a bad guy too! You’re just a demon hidden under the skin of a human being…” The girl viciously jumped at Huo Mian, struggling so hard that Chen Jie couldn’t hold onto her anymore…

Huo Mian suddenly pulled out the silver needle she carried with her and stabbed it into the back of the girl’s neck. After the anesthesia spread all over her body, she fell weakly to the ground…

“Chief, are you okay?” Chen Jie was so scared that her expression changed. Then, she ran up to Huo Mian and examined her arm.

Her right arm was injured… there were obvious bloody marks all over.

“Don’t worry, it’s just a small injury.” Huo Mian sat down and took out some iodine to disinfect her wounds.

Then, she took out some white mesh and quickly wrapped it around her arm.

“I’m sorry, Chief, I didn’t think the patient would be so emotionally unstable…” Chen Jie blamed herself.

“It’s not your fault, don’t think too much about it… this patient’s suffering from severe psychosis. Not only does she had persecutory delusions, but I also think she has multiple personalities… and maybe even auditory hallucinations. If she’s not tightly monitored, she might self-abuse or commit suicide… I have to go to a meeting upstairs, call her family and tell them to pick her up.”

“Okay, I will, Chief.” Chen Jie admired how calm and collected Huo Mian was under all circumstances.

Although a psychotic patient injured her arm, she still logical analyzed the patient’s illness… Huo Mian had high professional ethics…

When she left work, Qin Chu called to tell her that he wasn’t going home. Just as she was about to head home, Xiaowei called her.

“Mian, come and have dinner at my place. I bought a bunch of food you like, including king crab. Lingling will be here soon.”

“Okay, wait for me,” Huo Mian said. Then, she drove straight to Jiang Xiaowei’s home.

When she passed an infant shop, she bought a bunch of baby clothes and supplies.

After Xiaowei became pregnant, they didn’t hang out as much as they used to, but they were still really tight. When Huo Mian arrived, Zhu Lingling was still on her way…

“Oh my god, what happened to your arm?” Jiang Xiaowei immediately noticed Huo Mian’s injury.

“Oh… a patient scratched me.”

“Psychosis?” Jiang Xiaowei asked, and Huo Mian nodded…

“Your profession is almost as dangerous as that of the criminal police squad at the bureau… Qin Chu’s heart is going to break when he finds out.”

“He doesn’t know yet, he’s on a business trip.”

“Sit down, I’ll re-apply the medicine.”

Jiang Xiaowei dragged Huo Mian onto the couch in the living room and took out her first-aid kit.

Then, she redressed Huo Mian’s wound skillfully.

At that moment, Wei Liao sent her a video request.

Jiang Xiaowei clicked ‘accept’ and placed her phone on the coffee table.

Wei Liao: “Honey… uh… what are you doing?”

Jiang Xiaowei: “Can’t you tell? Are you blind? I’m dressing Huo Mian’s wound.”

Wei Liao: “Uh… Huo Mian’s at our place?” Then, he glanced at Su Yu, who was sitting beside him.”

Jiang Xiaowei: “Mhm, I asked her and Lingling to come over for dinner.”

Wei Liao: “Oh, then you guys eat. I was just wondering what you wanted and was going to buy you some dinner.”

Jiang Xiaowei: “No, it’s okay, you guys eat.”

After hanging up, Wei Liao glanced at Su Yu profoundly. “Young Master Su, did you see? Huo Mian’s at my place.”

“So?” Su Yu asked calmly.

“Do you want to come over to my house for dinner?” Wei Liao smiled mysteriously, but Su Yu responded, “Are you sure your wife won’t end up chasing us out?”

“Ha… of course she won’t, my Xiaowei is really gentle…” Wei Liao chuckled.

Tang Chuan, who was playing a game on his phone, immediately interrupted, “Liao, that’s such a bad lie…”

“Screw you, I’m not lying! Seriously, Xiaowei isn’t as scary as you think she is…” Wei Liao protested, but Tang Chuan and Su Yu just smiled without saying anything.

“Huh, but why would Huo Mian get hurt all of a sudden?” Wei Liao muttered to himself; upon hearing this, Su Yu’s expression changed drastically.
