Then he heard footsteps again, and was surprised to see the door unlock and Tao Yu appear before him.
She said coldly, “Why aren’t you applying the medicine? Are you trying to extort money from me when the inspection team arrives? You’re my area’s prisoner, and I’ll be held responsible.”
Yue Linze glanced at her, “Since you’ll be implicated, why would Old Chang be so kind as to give me medicine?”
Tao Yu was momentarily stunned, then replied without changing her expression, “Because he’s like a mentor to me. If I make a mistake, it means he didn’t warn me properly, and he’ll be punished too.”
Yue Linze found her lying skills amusing but didn’t expose her, instead continuing the conversation, “I see. Seems like a good opportunity to mess with a prison guard. Looks like I definitely won’t be applying this medicine.”
… suit yourself. Tao Yu gave him a stern look, brought a small stool from outside, and sat by the door, staring blankly at the door panel.
Yue Linze looked at her strangely, “Why did you come back?”
“Afraid you’ll go crazy,” she said abruptly.
Yue Linze was stunned for a moment before understanding the context, realizing she believed his earlier scare tactic. He couldn’t help but laugh, “Little prison guard, if you remain this naive here, you might get eaten alive.”
Tao Yu gave him a sidelong glance, “Thanks for the warning.”
Then she fell silent. Yue Linze stretched and lay back down, acting as if Tao Yu wasn’t even there.
Tao Yu sat there and began to feel a dull pain in her chest. She frowned and entered the solitary confinement room.
Yue Linze didn’t move, watching her with his peripheral vision. When she came towards him, he raised an eyebrow. Seeing her pick a bottle from a pile of medicines, he had a vague guess.
Just as he was about to sit up cooperatively, he saw her efficiently pour out a pill, pop it into her mouth, swallow it, and immediately return to her stool.
Yue Linze, who had expected her to apply medicine to him, was left speechless.
Don’t pretend nothing happened, I just saw you peeking.” Tao Yu narrowed her eyes, applying medicine for him herself. This bastard was actually staring at her, with a suspicious look!
