Su Hongmei saw this subtle little action and felt that Lu Qinchuan had been wronged. The urge to snatch Lu Qinchuan back from the country woman became stronger and stronger.

"Qinchuan," Lai Yunlong checked Lu Qinchuan's injuries, then glanced at the door with a gloomy face and said, "Let's ask Nurse Su to take care of you. She just came from the countryside and can't tell east from west, south from north, so she can't take good care of you."

Su Hongmei caught a glimpse of a red dress coming in from outside the door, and she followed Lai Yunlong's words and said, "Yes, Qin Chuan, you have been injured so many times over the years, and I took care of you every time you were hospitalized. You are a patient, and I am a medical staff. It is only natural that I should do my duty."

Although she was facing the door sideways, she was able to accurately control the volume of her voice to be audible to Zhou Ruoyu. Zhou Ruoyu ignored her and Lai Yunlong as if they were air, and walked to the bed with the basin.

The dirty clothes in the basin were gone, replaced by towels soaked in warm water. While washing them, she looked at Lu Qinchuan with a smile: "Nurse Xiaolin ordered that we should scrub them. Should we wait until you finish the task or should we scrub them now?"

Su Hongmei's face turned pale. "You're just kidding! He's covered in wounds. How are you going to clean them? Besides, you're not a nurse. Do you know how to avoid wounds?"

Having finally caught someone wrong, Lai Yunlong naturally couldn't miss the opportunity: "The local people have already sent a banner to the military headquarters. He is now a meritorious officer of the military region, and even the military chief has ordered him to be protected. How can we let a clumsy and untrained random person take care of him! Stop making trouble here and go out and rest."

Zhou Ruoyu pursed her lips and said nothing, her hands still moving, still washing the snow-white towel, her wet eyes only looking at Lu Qinchuan.

Lu Qinchuan spread his hands towards her, clearly wanting her to help him wash.

I guess you're a wise boy!

Zhou Ruoyu was secretly proud of herself, at least she didn't lose face in front of Bai Yueguang. She wrung out the towel, deliberately twisted her waist and walked to Lu Qinchuan, lifted his hand, and wiped it finger by finger.

Lai Yunlong saw that Su Hongmei's face looked strange, and this was really not the place to quarrel, so he pulled Su Hongmei out of the ward first.

Furious, Su Hongmei immediately met Nurse Xiaolin's unfriendly gaze. She walked straight to the nurse's station, knocked on the table, and said, "Xiaolin, please write a report and switch positions with me. I will be in charge of Captain Lu's ward!"

With such an air of demeanor, he seems to think of himself as the dean?

Without even raising his eyelids, Xiao Lin spun the pen in his hand quickly. "I'm doing a good job, so why should I ask for a transfer? If Nurse Su wants to change, she can just ask the director herself. Why would she ask me?"

"you!"

Su Hongmei was treated like a rich lady by everyone in her department, and had never endured the cold words from this young girl. But she was so angry that she was dizzy and couldn't find any words to retort for a moment, and her body began to tremble slightly.

Lai Yunlong pointed at Xiao Lin and said, "Everyone in the military region knows that Nurse Su and Lu Qinchuan are a perfect match. Even if you don't apply for a transfer, the director can still transfer you. Then you'll be the one crying!"

"Nurse Xiaolin," Zhou Ruoyu leaned over and asked in a low voice, "If he needs to urinate or defecate these past two days, does he have to do it in bed?"

Xiao Lin stood up and nodded emphatically: "Yes, you must clean it thoroughly after each use to avoid infection of the wound."

Su Hongmei lost her composure. Didn't they say that nothing happened between them? Then how could she be asked to do the job of cleaning private parts?

The previous few times he was hospitalized were all due to injuries to his arms and other parts of his body. This was the first time he had to lie in bed with one leg hanging high. If Zhou Ruoyu helped him wipe his private parts, and they were a legitimate couple, wouldn't it be quick for them to get into the same bed together?

Zhou Ruoyu retracted her head and gently closed the door inside the house.

Su Hongmei glanced at Lai Yunlong with resentment. Lai Yunlong, understanding her intention, rushed to the door and stretched out his hand to stop Zhou Ruoyu from closing it. "Wait a minute, I have something else to report to you privately."

Zhou Ruoyu looked back at Lu Qinchuan, then came out with the basin. Without even looking at Su Hongmei, whose face was as pale as a ash, she went straight to the bathroom.

"Old Lu, we're from the same place and we're classmates. I simply cannot stand by and watch you get schemed against. I'm telling you, Zhou Ruoyu's heart isn't with you at all. She must have heard Xiaohua mention your promotion in the army, and that's why she persuaded your parents to bring her here to force you to get married!"

Lai Yunlong slammed the door shut, lowered his voice, and consoled him in a deep voice, as if he was thinking about him.

Lu Qinchuan's hands and face had just been wiped by Zhou Ruoyu with a warm towel, and he felt very comfortable. Although his body still hurt, he was in a good mood. It was just that Lai Yunlong really spoiled his mood.

"Laolai, what do you mean by that?" He frowned, his face full of unhappiness.

Lai Yunlong pulled a chair over and sat down beside his bed. "Don't blame me for being so cold towards you, my child bride. I never thought your parents would be so anxious to send her here. Let me ask you, do you know why they sent her here so urgently?"

Lu Qinchuan pursed his lips, and his already stern face was now covered with a layer of ice. His cold gaze made Lai Yunlong hesitate for a moment.

But he also has to think about himself. Only if he can help Su Hongmei get Lu Qinchuan can he rise to the top.

After a moment of contemplation, he finally spoke: "I guess you don't know, but the village chief's surname is Gu, right? Do you still remember his only son, Gu Changhong?"

"Of course." The coldness in Lu Qinchuan's tone remained unchanged.

"When you left, that kid was so tall, but now he's about 1.8 meters tall. He's said to be a decent-looking guy. His family has connections, and he's said to have relatives who are high-ranking officials in the capital."

After sniffing heavily, Lai Yunlong glanced at Lu Qinchuan's cold expression again, but his dark eyes were so calm that he felt scared, and his voice suddenly became a little tighter.

"Gu Changhong has been coveting your child bride for a long time. He once used a middleman to talk to your parents, saying that you also disagreed with the marriage and could cancel it and promise it to the Gu family instead. You know your father's temper. Once he's made up his mind, no one can change it. He even scolded the middleman, kicked him out, and threw him out."

"The day before she came to the army, Gu Changhong asked her to meet him by the pond, and she went. Who knows what happened between them? She fell into the pond..."

When Lai Yunlong said this, his eyes were filled with disgust. The sudden appearance of Zhou Ruoyu, this woman, definitely blocked his career path. It was so hateful.
