There was no other way but to report the matter to Dean Ni.

Upon hearing this, Ni Hongcai immediately said that sending Jiang Xinjia was nonsense!

“I thought Dr. Qiao hadn’t signed up. Since she was willing to go, why wasn’t she chosen, but Dr. Jiang instead?” Ni Hongcai asked, his tone quite dissatisfied.

Director Lu is sweating, can we blame him for that?

"Dean, the vice dean said..."

After hearing this, Ni Hongcai cursed, "That old Zhou!"

"So, Dean, what is the final list?"

Director Lu has become shrewd. He doesn't make the decision himself, but lets the dean make the choice. That way, even if Zhou Deming comes to him later, he can say it was the dean's idea.

Besides, Qiao Xinruo has also stated that she accepts fair competition, so isn't it still because Jiang Xinjia herself can't compete with her?

"Let Dr. Qiao go," the dean decided.

The following day, news came from the medical standby team.

Su Yueya was greatly surprised to find that Qiao Xinruo's name was on the list, instead of Jiang Xinjia, who had previously received a lot of attention.

"Xinruo, how did you manage to do that?" Su Yueya asked curiously.

Yesterday, Qiao Xinruo told her not to come along, which made her very curious. She never expected things to go so smoothly.

Normally, it would be simpler to have an open selection process where ability speaks for itself. But this time, there was no assessment or competition. Once you registered, the HR department finalized the list.

“I went to see Director Lu and told him that if we were going to hold a selection process, we should just make a list directly. If it’s not my name, I won’t recognize it, or I won’t let you go. Anyway, I don’t feel comfortable letting you go with Jiang Xinjia.”

"Xinruo, are you threatening Director Lu?" Su Yueya stared wide-eyed, looking terrified.

That's incredibly audacious!

Although Qiao Xinruo spoke politely, the underlying meaning was nothing short of a threat.

Su Yueya never expected her younger sister to be so bold!

"How did I threaten him?" Qiao Xinruo asked, feeling wronged.

Looking at Su Yueya's shocked expression, she thought her sister was so cute, just like a rabbit, easily startled.

"I was stating facts and explaining the reasons."

"This kind of mission is different from other missions. After all, it is a mission for soldiers, and there may be danger to their lives. Under such circumstances, sending that good-for-nothing Jiang Xinjia is, I think, Zhou Deming is trying to make her go crazy with the credit!"

There were only the two sisters in the office, and Qiao Xinruo spoke much more directly.

Su Yueya's eyes widened even more, and she covered her mouth with an incredulous expression.

Then she subconsciously looked towards the office door.

fine……

Su Yueya clutched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, no one else was passing by.

If these blasphemous words were heard...

She didn't even dare to think about it!

“Xinruo, don’t talk nonsense. How can you call Vice President Zhou by his name? And you even said that Dr. Jiang is an incompetent fool…” Su Yueya’s voice trailed off.

"What's wrong with that? A name is meant to be called. What's wrong with me saying his name? Besides, I've cleaned up Jiang Xinjia's messes countless times before. What's wrong with me saying a few words to her?"

Qiao Xinruo may not want to dwell on these things, but that doesn't mean she's a fool.

Under reasonable circumstances, it's negotiable for her to contribute more or do something for the hospital, including giving Jiang Xinjia opportunities to gain exposure and recognition.

But this time, since it concerns Su Yueya, she's not so easy to talk to.

"Alright, alright, stop talking now." Su Yueya was terrified and decided that she and her sister could talk about these things privately after leaving the hospital.

Never say this in the hospital; if someone overhears you, it could easily cause trouble.

"Is it really necessary... I'm just stating the facts, not making things up." Qiao Xinruo said confidently, without a hint of guilt.

Su Yueya was extremely impressed.

The final list has been confirmed, and the four members of the medical standby team are: Qiao Xinruo, Duan Chenyi, Su Yueya, and Gao Haomiao.

The four members will depart in two days. The military will arrange vehicles to pick them up from the hospital. They only need to bring their own luggage, as well as spare basic equipment and medicines.

That evening, Su Yueya told Lu Zhengjun about it after she got home.

"They didn't say anything before because they weren't sure if I'd be selected, but the notification came out today, and my name is on it. I'm leaving in two days..."

To be honest, she didn't feel anything when she signed up, but now that she has to explain to Lu Zhengjun, Su Yueya feels particularly reluctant.

Doesn't this mean I have to be separated from Lu Zhengjun for a while?

In the past, when Lu Zhengjun went out on missions, she felt the house was empty every day. Now that she is the one who has left, she doesn't feel much better. She always feels particularly troubled.

"That's the situation right now. I don't know exactly where we're going. Our mission is to provide medical support," Su Yueya said.

Lu Zhengjun nodded. He accepted it quickly, after all, he was more familiar with this kind of thing than Su Yueya.

He fully supports Su Yueya's desire to participate in the mission.

"Yueya, go ahead and do it. My only request for you is to come back safely." Lu Zhengjun held Su Yueya's hand tightly.

Su Yueya and the others are not soldiers, so they don't need to risk their lives for a mission.

"As for why you don't know much about the situation right now, it's because of the mission's confidentiality; we certainly won't tell you much about it."

"It's probably because there aren't any suitable hospitals near the mission location. With only military doctors, they might not be able to handle the workload. There might not be enough medical resources, and we're worried that if soldiers have an accident and need immediate medical attention, there might not be the necessary conditions. You should just go and stand by."

Lu Zhengjun tried his best to downplay the danger, but he knew the situation was serious.

The fact that a medical standby team can be arranged indicates that the conditions for this mission may not be so good, and there is a certain chance that danger may occur.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't worried at all; after all, she was my wife.

But as a soldier, he naturally had to support his wife.

"I know, I will definitely protect myself and come back safely."

Su Yueya understood this feeling all too well.

Just like her usual request of Lu Zhengjun, there was nothing else but peace and safety.

"By the way, Xinruo will be going with you too. You two sisters must look after each other and be alert. If anything seems wrong, be sure to seek help immediately," Lu Zhengjun instructed.

“Okay, I know what to do.” Su Yueya nodded.

She also had a plan in mind.

Ensuring her own and her sister's safety is paramount; if the situation becomes critical, she still has room to save her life.

Of course, try to avoid using the space if possible, since she can't explain it.

But if it comes at the cost of life, then no secret is more important than the safety of one's life.

"Then you should get some rest. I won't push you these next couple of days so you can conserve your energy and get back into shape," Lu Zhengjun said.
