“Lend me your mentor for a while.” With that said, Momo immediately dragged Mina from her spot, ignoring all the documents that slipped off the latter’s lap. After taking a right turn, the 2 girls entered the lift, descending to the basement.

Upon reaching the carpark, Momo shoved Mina into the backseat of her car and removed her shirt revealing the once again bloodied patch of cloth on her left shoulder. “Sh*t, I think your wound re-opened.”

“Yea thanks, Captain Obvious!” Mina hissed through her gritted teeth.

Promptly removing the gauze, Momo was going to reach for the drawers in front of the passenger seat when a knock is heard on the windows of the car. F***. Momo thought to herself, getting ready to eliminate whoever that just discovered their ‘secret’. Snapping her head towards the source of the sound, she was faced with a panicking intern who keeps pointing towards Mina’s shoulder which the latter fails at covering up in time.

“Should I get rid of this Chou Tzuyu girl? She’s like a walking disaster…” Momo asked sarcastically.

“There are CCTVs around, idiot.” Mina deadpanned at her teammate. “Let’s just let her in.”

“Hey… Why are you here?” Momo asked awkwardly at the taller girl.

“Is Dr. Myoui okay? I see lots of blood… I’m so sorry.” Tzuyu said with her voice trembling, bowing repeatedly. Remorse could be seen all over her face, with her huge ears turning red.

“Come on in first.” Momo ordered, before climbing into the passenger seat in front. After settling the trembling girl down, Mina asked “Are you confident in your stitching skills?”

Giving a quick nod, Tzuyu replied “I will help you stitch that back.”

Momo then handed the intern the equipment from Mina’s car, switching on the lights and wait while Mina is being treated.

After finishing up, both Mina and Tzuyu are sweating; one due to the pain, while the other breaking in cold sweat. Without hesitating for a second, Mina pinned Tzuyu in the car, the mentor ‘warning’ (more like threatened) her intern not to tell anyone about any of these and just forget whatever that happened. Momo continued by giving the green-haired girl a death threat and shot the said girl an ice cold glare.

Maybe it’s the shock, or maybe it’s the fright, Tzuyu passed out in Mina’s car after hearing the two assassins’ threats.

“Look after this brat; I’m going back to my office before I get questioned about being MIA during work hours.” Mina said nonchalantly, before walking off with a confused Momo gaping at her. Momo wanted to refuse, but she has to keep an eye on this kid snoring away in the backseat of Mina’s precious Audi, and make sure that she doesn’t utter a word about what happened earlier.

After a good half an hour of ‘sleep’, Tzuyu woke up to a horrifying sight of Momo glaring at her. Tzuyu almost rolled off the seat, if not for Momo’s fast reaction at stopping that from happening.

“You better not utter a word of what happened earlier, you hear me, kid? Or else…” Momo sneered at the said girl while running a thumb across her neck. Gulping down a lump in Tzuyu replied “Y-Yes, ma’am!”

“Where’s Dr. Myoui and how is she now?” Tzuyu asked the murderous peach.

Snapping her head at her, Momo hissed “What did you just say?”

“Oh no, nothing! I was just wondering why am I here? I should be working and not slacking around during work hours.” Tzuyu managed to say that out without stuttering. Then she quickly opened the door of the car and scurried out, not without tripping over herself as she tries to escape the growling Momo.

Upon reaching the hallway of the cardiothoracic department, Tzuyu let out a sigh of relief.

“Hey, where have you been the past hour?” Nayeon asked from behind, making Tzuyu jump before turning to the talking girl.

“She had some business to settle in the toilet.” Mina replied for Tzuyu while walking towards the two girls. The sight of Mina walking to towards her sent a shiver down Tzuyu’s long spine.

“Oh… Do you need any medication? Diarrhoea? Digestive?” Nayeon enquired rather sincerely, making Mina burst into laughter.

“What? Just in case?” Nayeon said incredulously.

Tzuyu somehow let her guard down when she sees Mina breaking into laughter. Damn, her laugh is so cute. Tzuyu thought to herself and a small blush starts creeping onto her cheeks. Suddenly she felt a hand on her forehead. “Are you seriously sick? Your forehead is rather warm and your cheeks are red.” Mina said with her right hand still on Tzuyu’s forehead.

“See! I told you she will need some meds!” Nayeon challenged the doctor.

Seeing this sight unfold, Tzuyu quickly snapped back to reality and told the bickering duo that she’s fine. The day ended rather quickly and now Tzuyu is now on her way home in her Lamborghini.

As she enters her room, Tzuyu slumps into her bed, missing its warm embrace. Meanwhile, her thought drift off somewhere, to a certain doctor who walks like a sergeant.

Wow, her smile, her laugh, her shoulders… Before she could roam into the forbidden areas, she quickly snap back to when she was being pinned by the girl of her thoughts, giving her death threats. And that made Tzuyu shiver in fear. What is she? Why is she making me feel things…

Hoping off her bed, she quickly opened her laptop and typed Mina’s full name into the hospital browser. Reading her information and resume, something feels off... She set her mind to ask her dad about the girl later at night.

 “Dad, isn’t my mentor a little too young to be this qualified? It’s a little like she’s over-qualified to just be regular doctor in our hospital.” Tzuyu asked her dad over dinner.

Upon hearing what his daughter said, Chou Yi almost choked on his food.

“Dad, you alright? You should eat slowly.” Tzuyu asked with concern.

Shaking his head, Chou Yi replied “You should keep your distance from that doctor, I don’t know much about her yet.” Lies “But I have been digging up some info about her. She does seem a little over-qualified for her age and position she’s currently holding in the hospital.”

Well, Chou Yi has actually hired agents on Mina’s back, spying her every move and Chou Yi would definitely not hesitated to go after the girl if anything ticks him off. There’s a saying that goes: Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

Shrugging at Chou Yi’s words, Tzuyu continued “She’s actually a nice person, although she appears rather stone-cold, I like it when she smiles.” Chou Yi narrowed his eyes at his daughter’s statement.

“Seems like my princess is pleased with the mentor I’ve arranged.” Chou Yi half-teased, while the other half worries that Mina isn’t as simple as how she had presented herself to be.

“Sir, this is about Myoui Mina…” The person over the line started.
