Chapter 1262: Chapter 1262: This is Just the Beginning

An Hao’s slow narration was, by now, a form of torture to Ma Mei.

She could already guess what An Hao was about to say! The patient was likely to wake up soon, and once awake, could very well identify her!

Regardless of whether the patient had seen her pull out the tubes, it was already a tremendous ordeal for Ma Mei.

An Hao saw cracks gradually forming on Ma Mei’s face, a sign that her mental defenses were slowly being breached. If she could break down soon, An Hao wouldn’t even have to wait any longer.

"Dr. Ma, do I need to continue telling you the rest?" An Hao said with a smile curving her lips, "After all I’ve said, you might say, what would it matter if the patient woke up? He couldn’t exactly identify you! Actually, I discovered something quite interesting. Do you want to hear it?"

"What do you really want to say, An Hao?" Ma Mei was already overwhelmed, feeling as though a massive stone was pressing against her chest, making it hard to breathe.

"What’s wrong?" An Hao studied Ma Mei’s expression closely and laughed, "Dr. Ma, are you feeling unwell? Your complexion doesn’t look good."

Zhang Lanxiang might not fully understand their conversation, but from their expressions she could discern who was in control.

It appeared that An Hao was the one with the upper hand.

Although Ma Mei tried to appear calm and composed, Zhang Lanxiang could see that her inner world had collapsed! Completely disarrayed!

"I’m fine. Don’t trouble yourself over me," Ma Mei said through gritted teeth, "You’re really ridiculous. This matter has nothing to do with me. Why tell me all this?"

"Is deceiving yourself enjoyable?" An Hao mercilessly exposed her, "I know these past days have been rough for you! But this is just the beginning! There are harder times ahead waiting for you."

Ma Mei, infuriated by An Hao’s inexplicable confidence snapped, "Who do you think you are? What right do you have to lecture me on things here and there? As I said, I’m not the one who pulled out the IV! Do you find it amusing to suspect me? "

"If it wasn’t you, why so anxious?" Zhang Lanxiang retorted sharply, "Looking like this, whoever you say you didn’t do it to, nobody will believe you."

"I..." Ma Mei was a mess of nerves, very agitated. Having practiced medicine for so many years, she had never encountered a situation like this, and this intern was not someone easily dealt with. She was truly in a predicament now.

How could things have turned around so drastically in just a single day?

"Forget it. I don’t want to discuss this matter with you anymore. Today is a good day since Captain Zhang got promoted to Major. I don’t want to talk about such a disheartening topic on such a joyous day." Ma Mei dropped a line, wishing to end the topic quickly.

If the conversation continued, she was sure to go mad on the spot.

"Fine. If we’re not discussing it, then we’re not discussing it," An Hao also felt she had said enough, the mental pressure she crafted was already heavy enough, and the remaining days would definitely be fearfully lived through by her.

An Hao felt a surge of thrill just thinking about it! It wasn’t that she was cruel or bad! She was forced into this corner, she had to protect herself!

"Ma Mei, are you still going to help me cook?" Zhang Lanxiang asked Ma Mei.

"Sister-in-law, let me do it? Look at Dr. Ma’s complexion, it’s terribly awful. She surely won’t be able to help you cook. I bet it won’t be long before she says she’s uncomfortable and has to leave first," An Hao said with a laugh.
