Xiao Jing didn’t know how long she had slept. She only knew that her body was in pain, as if her whole body had been cut open and sewn up, and then sewn up again.
The humidifier was working quietly, and the sunlight was mostly blocked by the heavy curtains.
The person with her eyes closed on the hospital bed opened her eyes silently. Her consciousness was a little confused. She stared at the ceiling blankly and fell into a state of deep thought for a moment.
Where was this place?
Seeing the pale color all around, Xiao Jing hurriedly sat up but was pushed back by the wound again.
“Awake?” On the sofa, Shen Chengfeng put down the newspaper in his hand and stared at the figure who was twisting and turning and making eyes in pain.
Xiao Jing opened the quilt in panic. What should she do? Where were her clothes?
“Don’t worry, this is a private hospital far away from the army, and no one will know your identity.” Shen Chengfeng poured a glass of water and walked forward.
Xiao Jing felt dryness in her mouth. She thought the captain was kind enough to give her a sip of drink, but before she could finish her thought, he just took the cup and drank it all up, without leaving a drop.
Shen Chengfeng continued, “You can’t go back to the army in three days for treatment for an injury like this.”
Xiao Jing said in a hoarse voice, “Captain, I’m thirsty too.”
Shen Chengfeng put down the cup, looked her up and down, and said bluntly: “Aren’t you very courageous?”
“Captain, how can you bear to mistreat a patient like this?”
Shen Chengfeng stared at her eyes in silence. It was obvious that he was replying: Do I have a conscience? I don’t have a conscience.
“Dean, is what you just said true? Did my third son really bring a female soldier here for treatment?”
“General, do I dare to report to you blindly? This morning around midnight, the Third Young Master personally carried this comrade here. At first we thought she was his comrade, but after checking, we found that she was actually a female soldier.”
“Has my third child finally come to his senses?”
The sound of conversation gradually approached from one end of the corridor.
Shen Chengfeng and Xiao Jing looked at each other.
A barely perceptible sound of the door opening was heard from the door.
Xiao Jing hurriedly covered herself with the quilt.
Shen Chengfeng turned around, still looking at the uninvited people with his stern face.
Yan Jun looked in the direction of the bed and said with a smile: “Son, what a coincidence, you are also in the hospital.”
“How did mother know I was here?” Shen Chengfeng looked at the dean without any hesitation.
The dean felt uneasy and explained, “The general heard that you were injured and came to see you.”
Yan Jun walked forward, looking around, her eyes wandering, always looking towards the bed involuntarily, as she said: “Is this comrade injured?”
“Mother, she’s not hurt. You’re worrying too much.” Shen Chengfeng blocked his mother’s eye attack without leaving a trace.
“Since I’m here, I’ll just sit for a while and then go back.” Yan Jun coughed lightly, sat on the sofa, and said with a smile: “Why doesn’t this comrade say anything?”
“I want to fall asleep.” Xiao Jing said in a deliberately shrill voice.
“….”
You could hear a pin drop in the entire ward.
Yan Jun covered her mouth and smiled, “Okay, okay, go to sleep.” Then she fixed her eyes on her son.
Shen Chengfeng said indifferently: “If you have nothing else to do, please go back.”
Yan Jun lowered her voice and asked the dean, “How is this comrade’s injury?”
The dean replied: “The external injuries are very serious. The entire back is burnt—”
Before he finished speaking, Yan Jun punched Shen Chengfeng and angrily shouted, “You know that you can’t touch anything with your hands, why did you touch the girl’s back?”
“…” The room was silent again.
The dean continued, “In addition to the burns, there are two gunshot wounds. One is a penetrating wound. Although it is not fatal, it caused excessive blood loss. The other wound is on the arm, which is not serious.”
Yan Jun stared at her son, looking disappointed in him, and said coldly: “Look at you, in this situation of fighting the enemy, even if the enemy outnumbers us, you can’t let a delicate girl fight in the front.”
“Mother, are you done?” Shen Chengfeng walked straight to the door, the implication of his words self-evident.
Yan Jun stood up and walked towards the bed. She stood beside the bed, slowed down her tone, and said gently: “Comrade, take good care of your injuries. It’s okay. Our Shen family will take care of it. You just stay in the hospital. If this kid messes up again, tell the dean and he will report the situation to me immediately. Although my son is rough and doesn’t understand the ways of the world, our Shen family is a wealthy family after all, and we will definitely take care of it.”
Seeing that she didn’t reply, Yan Jun tried to pull off the quilt persistently.
But Xiao Jing pulled the quilt hard. She knew that Admiral Yan Jun knew her, and said hurriedly, “I know, I know.”
Yan Jun nodded contentedly, “Then you should take good care of your injuries. When you are well, come to our house to sit down. We can sit together and talk about your ideas.”
“Mother!” Shen Chengfeng emphasized.
“Got it, got it, I’ll leave now.” Yan Jun once again looked deeply at the figure that was deliberately hiding on the bed, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
The dean followed Yan Jun out of the ward.
Yan Jun suddenly stopped and whispered into the dean’s ear: “Do you think the wound on the female soldier’s back might be related to my son? Ahem.” She raised her eyebrows, hinting.
The dean pushed up his glasses and replied uncertainly: “It’s possible. After all, she was wearing the Third Master’s clothes when she came to the hospital.”
“Wearing my son’s clothes?” Yan Jun was shocked. “My third son doesn’t even let others touch his things, let alone wear them.”
“So this was an emergency, and I felt I must inform you immediately.”
Yan Jun put on her sunglasses, and raised her lips, “I will remember this achievement for you.”
“Yes, sir.”
The ward returned to silence, and Xiao Jing quietly poked half of her head out.
Shen Chengfeng stood at the head of the bed with an expressionless face.
“Oh my god, Captain, why are you standing here?” Xiao Jing stroked her chest and looked closely at the pair of eyes full of resentment, almost frightened to the point of incontinence.
Shen Chengfeng leaned down and got closer. Then he said, “Given my mother’s temper, all your information will be on her desk within three days.”
“…”
“Is it surprising? Is it exciting?”
“…” Xiao Jing was about to hide herself under the quilt again.
But Shen Chengfeng pulled back her blanket and said coldly, “Military rules are not a joke. If your behavior is exposed, not only will you be punished, but the Xiao family and I will also be held responsible. If you don’t want to harm a group of people because of your behavior, then behave yourself.”
Xiao Jing blinked her big eyes in grievance, “Captain, is this my fault?”
Shen Chengfeng stood up straight, looking down at her condescendingly. His proud look and eyes told her: Can you blame me?
Xiao Jing secretly twisted the quilt, wondering whether she should raise her middle finger to express her anger, but then she thought about the captain’s sultry personality. What if he suddenly lifted the quilt?
Shen Chengfeng poured a glass of water and handed it directly to her. His rude look seemed to be saying: If you don’t drink it, I’ll force you to drink it.
Xiao Jing hurriedly drank a few sips, but because she drank too quickly and too violently, she choked, “Cough, cough, cough, cough.”
Shen Chengfeng took out a tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth lightly.
“…” Xiao Jing paused and stared at her captain with blinking eyes.
Shen Chengfeng said: “Have a good rest and return to the camp in three days.”
After saying this, he stood up, threw off his military coat and left the scene with a wild and unruly arrogance.
Shen Chengfeng closed the door of the ward and stood alone in the empty corridor. A cool breeze blew past and the incandescent light above his head shone down hotly. He turned his head to look at the window at the end of the corridor and pressed his heart involuntarily.
“Team leader.”
Shen Chengfeng suddenly put down his hand, turned around, and stared at the figure who got out of bed on her own initiative.
Xiao Jing propped herself on the door with one hand and pointed at the wound on his head. “I just saw your wound. Don’t you need to treat it?”
“It’s just a minor injury.”
“Team leader.”
“Um.”
“Thank you.” Before she finished speaking, Xiao Jing closed the door of the ward.
The room became quiet again. For some reason, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated and her face felt hot.
Outside the door, Shen Chengfeng stood still. He then raised his hand and touched his forehead, which seemed a little hot. Could it be that the wound was infected?
