His eyelids twitched, and his tightly closed eyes slowly opened.

Facing the people gathered around her bed, Tian Tian gripped the sheets tightly, her voice hoarse with fear, "Where...where am I?"

Teacher Yue held her hand and gently explained, "Sweetie, don't be afraid. This is the nursing home's infirmary."

"The infirmary?" Sweetie repeated, breaking free from Teacher Yue's hand and raising her arms to hug her head.

Seeing her cowering in fear, muttering to herself, all the teachers panicked.

There were no injuries on his body, so why did he have such a strong shock reaction?

What happened during the time they disappeared? No one present knew.

Teacher Yue was worried that Tian Tian might hurt herself due to stress, so she reached out and wrapped her arms around her, holding her tightly in her embrace. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

He gently patted her back, and with each soft word of comfort, Tian Tian gradually calmed down and stopped resisting, pushing Teacher Yue away.

Seeing that she had calmed down, the doctor at the nursing home silently came to the bedside. "Little girl, I'm the doctor here. Now, please cooperate with me so I can examine you, okay?"

There's nothing wrong with her body. If we get checked, wouldn't it be discovered that her fainting spell was faked?

After thinking it over, Sweetie shook her head vigorously and hid her body further behind Teacher Moon.

"Sweetie, the doctor isn't a bad person. He's examining you for your own good, so you need to cooperate with the doctor's examination." Teacher Yue held Sweetie's hand, trying to persuade her.

But Sweetie knew perfectly well what was going on, so how could she change her mind because of a few words from her?

"No, I don't want it!"

Sweetie pushed Teacher Moon away in protest, her arms and legs swinging wildly in the air.

Her foot struck Teacher Yue's chest forcefully, and the pain in her chest forced her to bend over.

Seeing this, Teacher Wang quickly pulled Teacher Yue away from Tian Tian.

She's now refusing the doctor's examination, and we can't force her to undergo it.

"If you don't want to get checked, then you don't have to," Teacher Wang said to Tian Tian. "But if you feel unwell anywhere, you must tell your teacher or doctor immediately."

Hearing this, Tian Tian calmed down once again. She looked up at them and said, "I want to go home, I want my mom!"

Her sudden request put everyone present in a difficult position.

Teacher Yue had initially decided to contact her parents, but was persuaded and stopped by the other teachers. Now that Tian Tian is asking for her mother again, she looks back at her colleagues, feeling lost and unsure what to do.

Contacting the parents is essential. Regardless of whether they were physically injured, they all suffered psychological trauma during their school field trip.

The teachers looked at each other, but no one spoke up, offered any opinions, or made any decisions.

"I want my mom!" Sweetie threw off the covers and stubbornly got out of bed.

No one expected her to be so stubborn, and the teachers quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"Don't worry, the teachers will call your mom first. You wait here patiently for your mom." After saying this, Teacher Wang held Tian Tian's arm and winked at Teacher Yue Liang beside her.

I have no choice but to make this call!

Teacher Yue took out her phone from her pocket and found Ruolan's phone number in the class group.

The phone call went out, and the infirmary fell silent instantly.

After a series of busy tones, a gentle female voice came through.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Sweetie's mom?"

"I am, are you?"

"I am Teacher Moon."

In the living room of the Gu residence, Ruolan felt a sudden tightness in her chest as the other person introduced themselves. She gripped her phone tightly and hesitantly asked, "Is...is something wrong with the two children?"

The sound drifted out, and under Teacher Yue's gaze, the other teachers all looked away.

As the homeroom teacher, Ms. Yue Liang couldn't escape even if she wanted to.

"Sweetie and Cuteie's mom, something did happen to them. But don't worry, neither of them is injured. It's not easy to explain over the phone. Would it be convenient for you to come to the nursing home now?"

"Okay, I'll go now. Could you please send me the address?"

"Okay, then we'll talk when we meet in a bit."

After hanging up the phone, Teacher Yue breathed a sigh of relief. But seeing Mengmeng still unresponsive on the hospital bed, her heart jumped again.

As a teacher, she had no idea what had happened to the two children. How was she supposed to explain this to their parents?

Teacher Yue turned her gaze to Tian Tian. She squatted down by the bed, one hand resting on the edge of the bed. "Tian Tian, ​​do you remember why you fainted? And where did you go while you were gone?"

Sweetie acted as if she couldn't hear, ignoring Teacher Moon's questions.

"Sweetie, is there something you can't tell your teacher?" Teacher Moon reached out to stroke her body.

Sweetie suddenly lay down, pulled the blanket over herself, and remained silent, ignoring any questions or expressions of concern from those around her.

Seeing her so reluctant to talk about what happened during her disappearance, the teachers couldn't help but imagine all sorts of bad scenarios.

The nursing home is not located in the city center, and compared to the school, it is somewhat remote. Although the air is good due to the many trees planted around it, it also makes it easy for bad people to take advantage of the situation and find hiding places.

The two girls had been missing for about an hour, during which time many things could have happened. Furthermore, when they reappeared in public, they were covered in mud and unconscious.

Teacher Yue nervously clutched the hem of her clothes, occasionally biting the fingers placed in front of her.

"You all should go out first. With so many people surrounding her and so many questions, it's easy for her to feel overwhelmed and become unwilling to speak," the doctor said.

The atmosphere inside was too oppressive, and many teachers had long wanted to go out. However, there hadn't been a suitable opportunity, and no one had taken the lead. Now, hearing that they could go out for some fresh air, the teachers said nothing and quickly headed outside, afraid they wouldn't be able to leave again soon.

Teacher Yue looked at the doctor and asked, "Shall I stay and keep them company?"

"Let's go out first," the doctor said, pulling on Teacher Yue's arm.

Still worried about them, Teacher Yue reassured Tian Tian before leaving, "I'm right outside. You can call me anytime you need anything."

Sweetie remained lying flat on her back, without responding.

Seeing this, the doctor exerted a little force with his arm and led Teacher Yue Liang out of the infirmary.

"Let's go," the doctor said to Tangtang, who had been leaning against the door.

Tangtang's gaze was fixed on the hospital bed where Tiantian was.

Was she just laughing?
