Although these two people were a little anxious, they did not seem to be panicking. They must have received the news that the injuries were not serious.

Lai Yunlong's eyebrows were about to stand up: "Why are you here?"

Su Hongmei, who was behind him, obviously did not expect that Zhou Ruoyu would appear in Lu Qinchuan's ward earlier than her. She could not hide her contempt and looked at Zhou Ruoyu angrily.

Zhou Ruoyu was so angry that she almost laughed: "Platoon Leader Lai, Lu Qinchuan and I are a legal couple with a marriage certificate. Is there anything wrong with me being here?"

It’s Platoon Leader Lai, it’s Platoon Leader Lai again. It’s bad enough that that scoundrel Company Leader Zhu keeps mentioning “Platoon Leader Lai” all the time, but now there’s another country bumpkin, which really makes him furious!

"This is a hospital ward. Only medical staff can take good care of Old Lu. Go back quickly before it gets dark."

Lai Yunlong was very angry and just shouted at Zhou Ruoyu to chase her out without any hesitation.

Su Hongmei pursed her lips and smiled silently. She smiled when Lai Yunlong told her that nothing had happened between Lu Qinchuan and his country bumpkin child bride.

The wife of the military district chief was her second aunt, and she saw her precious niece crying and laughing because of emotional torture.

He just shook his head helplessly: "What if nothing happened? It has nothing to do with you. Lu Qinchuan and his country wife are already married, so don't think about anything else."

"Second Aunt, this just proves that Lu Qinchuan is a man worthy of my pursuit. There was no emotional foundation between them to begin with. It was his stubborn and feudal parents who forcibly tied them together. This is kidnapping, a crime! Since I like him, I must win him over!"

Su Hongmei was known for her arrogance, but she seemed to be obsessed with Lu Qinchuan. The chief's wife became stiff: "Strive for him, how do you strive for him? Hongmei, wake up, he's already married!"

Su Hongmei smiled sweetly, but a hint of coldness reached her eyes: "After getting married, you can also get divorced. I, Su Hongmei, am a woman of the new era. I don't care whether a man is divorced or not."

The chief's wife had no choice but to pat her on the shoulder. "It'll fade with time, but don't dwell on it or risk getting her divorced. I'm telling you straight, your mother entrusted you to me, and I absolutely cannot let you find a divorced man!"

Su Hongmei snuggled into the arms of the chief's wife and started to act coquettishly: "Aiya, Second Aunt, I just said it casually because I was unwilling to give in. Look how scared you are..."

But Lai Yunlong was still waiting for her to go to the hospital to see Lu Qinchuan, so she had no choice but to lie: "Second Aunt, I've thought it through. I won't dwell on it anymore. Lao Lai said there was a wildfire in Shepherd Valley yesterday, and there may be injuries. I'd better go to the hospital to check it out. After all, my uncle still wants to fight for that head nurse position for me."

The chief's wife looked at her swollen eyes with doubt and asked, "Have you figured it out so quickly?"

"Really? Second Aunt, I'm a career woman."

Su Hongmei hugged the chief's wife's arm and shook her left and right, acting like a spoiled child. The chief's wife had no choice but to say, "Then go ahead. I'll ask the driver to take you there."

With Lai Yunlong's explosive news, Su Hongmei was now full of fighting spirit. They were both women, and if she and that woman were put side by side, she didn't believe Lu Qinchuan would choose that country bumpkin.

Zhou Ruoyu did not refute, nor did she want to talk to this couple with ulterior motives, so she held the basin and stood in front of the door, blocking the two of them with her body.

"Caring for patients is Nurse Su's specialty. You just came from the countryside and don't know anything about this. Get out of the way!" Looking at his vicious expression, he was almost going to attack Zhou Ruoyu if she didn't get out of the way.

"Hey, hey, hey—" Nurse Xiaolin's voice rang out from behind, "What's going on with you? The regimental commander has issued an order that no outsiders are allowed into Captain Lu's ward. How did you just barge in? Get out now!"

Her already round eyes became even rounder, and she stared at Lai Yunlong and Su Hongmei who sneaked in.

Su Hongmei is a nurse in the internal medicine department and rarely comes to the surgery department. However, since they are in the same hospital, she is acquainted with Nurse Kobayashi.

She smiled and walked forward and said, "Nurse Xiaolin, please go do your work first. I'll help you with your shift for a while."

Although Lu Qinchuan wasn't a top officer, he had made significant contributions, so it was only natural that he would be assigned a dedicated nurse. Therefore, Nurse Xiaolin almost exclusively served Lu Qinchuan. Su Hongmei noticed this when she came in.

Xiao Lin, however, showed no appreciation and even rolled his eyes. "Su Hongmei, let me repeat again, the regimental commander has issued an order that no one other than Captain Lu's family members are allowed into the ward. Is it that I didn't understand, or that you didn't understand?"

Su Hongmei hit a snag, nearly choking. She thought to herself, "When I get promoted to head nurse, I'll be the first one to deal with this Xiaolin!"

Seeing Xiaolin's refusal to accept his toast, Lai Yunlong's tone became even more anxious: "You little nurse dares to shout here? I'm really tired of my job!"

Xiao Lin was not afraid at all. He puffed out his chest and said, "I dare not disobey the order given by the regiment commander. If you two refuse to listen to my advice, then I will have no choice but to report it to the dean and have him come and ask you to leave!"

Su Hongmei tugged at Lai Yunlong's collar, signaling him not to force his way through. She said sullenly, "Since there's an order, we won't embarrass Xiaolin. However, Captain Lu still has a task for Platoon Leader Lai. Look at this..."

She deliberately spoke in an awkward manner, hesitating as she observed Xiaolin's expression. After all, her thoughts weren't as complicated as Su Hongmei's, and she was truly afraid of delaying Captain Lu's mission, so she looked hesitantly at Zhou Ruoyu.

Zhou Ruoyu sneered in her heart. So what if Bai Yueguang wanted to see him? It didn't prevent her from hiding under the big tree of Lu Qinchuan to enjoy the shade. She could be considered to have done some good deeds.

The thought flashed through her mind, and she just pursed her lips, holding the basin and silently making way for the two to go in.

"Old Lu!" Su Hongmei's eyes couldn't help but turn red when she saw Lu Qinchuan lying on the hospital bed. In her eyes, Lu Qinchuan was tall and mighty, but now this man had fallen down, with layers of gauze wrapped around his chest, and his left leg was cast and hung high.

Biting her lower lip, Su Hongmei tried her best to hold back her tears. Thinking of what Lai Yunlong had said to her, she felt that Lu Qinchuan was suffering overwhelming harm both physically and mentally.

When Lu Qinchuan saw that it was her, he looked away, but he saw Zhou Ruoyu walking out with a basin.

Why did she go out? Didn’t she know that Su Hongmei had always had fantasies about her man?

A slight sense of loss came over him, and he closed his eyes, avoiding looking at the two anxious people in front of him.
