Once Qiao Xinruo sets her mind on something, she will definitely do it. So no matter how difficult it was, she always carried Zhou Jinglan on her back and had no intention of giving up.

"Hold my neck and save me some energy," Qiao Xinruo said.

Zhou Jinglan felt that it was already very improper of him to be lying on the girl's back, and now he was even putting his arms around her neck... He was really embarrassed.

"Hurry up! My mom said that when you're being hugged, you should hold onto the person hugging you so they can save some effort," Qiao Xinruo said again.

Zhou Jinglan then hugged Qiao Xinruo's neck, feeling quite embarrassed. He felt incredibly close to the goddess...

Looking down, he noticed that the goddess's open collar revealed a patch of skin on her neck with an indescribable pattern, like a birthmark. He couldn't help but stare at that birthmark for a long time.

“Your mother knows a lot,” Zhou Jinglan said.

“Of course, my mom is a soldier, she’s amazing!” Qiao Xinruo said proudly.

"Wow—soldiers!" Zhou Jinglan thought it was amazing. So women could be soldiers too. Were all soldiers' daughters goddesses? Why were they so amazing as well?

“You’re too thin. You need to eat more rice and meat to grow taller and stronger,” Qiao Xinruo said.

Actually, speaking less can conserve energy, but not saying anything makes the time and journey seem very long and difficult to endure, so she would occasionally say a few words to the little boy.

Zhou Jinglan silently remembered the goddess's words.

Eat more rice and meat, grow tall and strong, become very powerful, join the army, and become a soldier...

The road was so long, and the goddess carried him on her back, leaning on a small wooden stick, and walked forward step by step with determination. She walked for a long time, and Zhou Jinglan stared at the birthmark for just as long.

In a daze, Zhou Jinglan felt as if he had reappeared in the forest where he had fallen. He was in so much pain, it seemed to be a thousand times, ten thousand times more painful than when he twisted his ankle.

Will his luck be as good this time as it was before?

The goddess has appeared again...

Will she save herself again?

Zhou Jinglan completely lost consciousness, his head falling heavily to one side.

"Battalion Commander Zhou?!" a soldier beside him cried out in panic. "Doctor, what happened to Battalion Commander Zhou? Has he been killed?! Battalion Commander Zhou! Battalion Commander Zhou!"

Qiao Xinruo almost went deaf.

"Calm down, he's just passed out," Qiao Xinruo said, placing her hand on Zhou Jinglan's neck and feeling the pulse in his veins. "Don't worry, he's not dead."

The soldier breathed a sigh of relief, then anxiously asked, "How is it? Can our Battalion Commander Zhou be saved? Is this the right way to handle it?"

“No,” Qiao Xinruo said.

Once she actually started dealing with the situation, she realized that Zhou Jinglan's condition was much more serious than it appeared, that is, more serious than she had predicted.

If he stays here, he can only receive the most basic treatment, and the hygiene here is substandard. Zhou Jinglan will not only fail to wake up, but may even become infected, and in the end, there will be no cure.

If he is to give birth, he must be transferred to the hospital immediately.

“I can only provide basic treatment here. More intensive care cannot be done here; the conditions are insufficient. He must be taken to the hospital,” Qiao Xinruo said.

“I’ll take care of it!” the soldier said immediately.

No matter what, we must save Battalion Commander Zhou's life; we must not let him sacrifice himself.

The situation on site was left to other soldiers to keep an eye on.

"I'll go see if there are any other seriously injured patients. Since they're going to be sent to the hospital anyway, I'll send them all together," Qiao Xinruo said.

She hurried to find Xu Luxin and Mu Nanbai, and learned that the others were not in too serious condition. They could be treated here simply and then sent away together later. So she didn't waste any time delaying Battalion Commander Zhou's life-saving time.

The soldiers quickly brought a vehicle, and together with the others, they carried Battalion Commander Zhou into it. Qiao Xinruo also went into the vehicle.

"I'll leave this place to you. I need to keep an eye on things over there. Battalion Commander Zhou is badly injured." Before leaving, Qiao Xinruo gave Xu Luxin a special instruction.

"Don't worry," Xu Luxin said.

Once in the car, Qiao Xinru kept a close eye on Battalion Commander Zhou's situation.

"Which hospital is the nearest one? We—"

"Go to the military hospital." Qiao Xinruo interrupted the soldier and made the decision directly. "Go to the military hospital immediately. He is seriously injured. Ordinary hospitals may not meet the standards."

The military hospital that Qiao Xinruo mentioned was the same military hospital where she and Su Yueya had previously worked.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers realized that Battalion Commander Zhou's condition was critical. They were not professionals and did not know how to provide emergency treatment, so of course they had to listen to the doctor.

“My sister is a very skilled doctor. Battalion Commander Zhou’s injuries are very serious. I’m afraid I can’t handle it alone. It would be best to call my sister along.” After thinking for a moment, Qiao Xinruo still mentioned Su Yueya.

If she could be sent to the military hospital, the operating room door would be closed, leaving only her and her sister. Then, when they administered anesthesia to Battalion Commander Zhou, the matter of the location shouldn't be exposed...

Otherwise, even if he were sent to a military hospital, it would be difficult to save Battalion Commander Zhou, given the hospital's own strength and resources.

Thinking about how the little girl Zhou Jinglan threw out cried and begged her to save her uncle when she went to explain the situation to Xu Luxin, she felt uneasy.

"Your sister?" the soldier asked, puzzled.

“Yes, my sister is also a military doctor in the medical department. You can contact the medical department that is providing support directly, find Su Yueya, explain the situation to her, and she will understand,” Qiao Xinruo said.

She trusted the unspoken understanding between her sister and herself; all she needed to do was give her a heads-up.

The soldiers were all surprised, because they knew that Qiao Xinruo was no ordinary person.

When the troops from the south came to provide support this time, they specifically requested Qiao Xinruo and Su Yueya because the two sisters were well-known.

I thought both of them were here, but now I know that only Qiao Xinruo came, and Su Yueya didn't.

There must be some special circumstances.

"Listen to Dr. Qiao, go and contact them immediately and explain our current situation."

"good!"

Since Qiao Xinruo said we need to find someone, then we must.

After saying all this, Qiao Xinruo stopped worrying about how to make contact. She had just noticed that Battalion Commander Zhou's pulse was not right and seemed to be weakening, so she immediately began CPR.

Throughout the journey, Qiao Xinruo did her best to save Battalion Commander Zhou.

"Battalion Commander Zhou, you must hold on!"

"battalion commander!"

Two soldiers around her kept shouting encouragement, which made Qiao Xinruo's head spin.

Unable to contact Su Yueya directly, they could only try to contact the medical department.

The medical department received the notification, inquired about the situation, and then informed Su Yueya.

"Dr. Su, Dr. Qiao has contacted us saying that one of the soldiers on this mission was seriously injured and couldn't be treated on the front lines. They are currently being transferred back and will be sent to a military hospital. You may need to assist Dr. Qiao."
