Chapter 387 Promise to Listen to My Wife

Ye Ying raised her head from Ji Lianqi's arms in surprise, "Are you serious?"

"Yes, really." Ji Lianqi lowered his eyes, his voice was light, but his eyes were filled with worry, "Please be careful when you go out."

Ye Ying still found it hard to believe.

She didn't quite understand why his attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

Ji Lianqi didn't intend to explain, but just looked at her quietly.

Ye Ying nodded slightly, and suddenly felt the rough texture on the back of her hand. She looked at it intently, and her brows were knitted together again.

"Why is your hand like this?"

His fingers were already rotten beyond recognition, with dirt and blood embedded in the gaps between his nails, which were as short as they could be.

This made Ye Ying feel very uncomfortable, and she said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You can't dig it with your bare hands, can you? My God."

"Well, sometimes tools are useless."

"You're just a fool."

Ye Ying took out a handkerchief from her pocket, wet it with water, and cleaned the blood and dirt on his fingers bit by bit.

Finally, he sniffed and said ruthlessly: "If you don't take care of yourself anymore, I will never come back."

These words were immediately opposed by Ji Lianqi.

Her complaints were blocked by his lips.

After a moment, Ye Ying pushed him away, panting slightly, her eyes clear: "Don't think you can just fool me like this, I will do what I say!"

Every time this guy goes on a mission, he gets injured here or there, which makes her worried enough. This can't go on.

"Okay, I understand." Ji Lianqi said as he lifted the quilt and tried to get out of bed.

Ye Ying held him down and asked, "What are you going to do?"

It's late at night, he won't go back to continue rescuing people, right?

Ji Lianqi glanced at her with a half-smile and said helplessly: "What can I do? I'm going to relieve myself."

“….”

Ye Ying let him go awkwardly and helped him get out of bed. "Then I'll go with you. I'm afraid you'll die suddenly in there and no one will know."

"No need." Ji Lianqi's expression became very strange, "I'm not that weak."

He couldn't imagine that Ye Ying was watching over him while he was relieving himself.

Ye Ying knew at once that he had misunderstood her thoughts, and said with a timid look on her face, "It's okay, I won't stand by and watch you do it, I'll wait for you outside."

"...Well, okay." Ji Lianqi compromised helplessly.

On the way out of the ward and toward the bathroom, Ye Ying saw that more and more injured people were being carried in from outside.

This is the nearest hospital. The medical system has long been overwhelmed and is in a state of overload, with each ward crammed with nearly a dozen people.

The weather was cold, and some people had to be wrapped in thick quilts and lie in the corridors and in every corner where there was space for them because there were no beds available.

Looking at all this, Ye Ying was shocked.

This is only what she can see. Who knows what kind of human tragedy is happening in places she can't see.

While waiting for Ji Lianqi, Ye Ying discovered that at the end of the corridor, there were several adults lying on the ground, wrapped in quilts covered with mud.

At this time, a little girl was shaking them wildly.

These adults seemed to have no vital signs and remained motionless no matter how the little girl shook them.

At this time, the children's noisy noise seemed to attract the nurse passing by.

The nurse hurried over and pulled the little girl away from the adults. She said to the little girl with a numb and impatient expression, "Little sister, I have told you so many times! They are dead and gone!"

The little girl stopped crying and looked at the nurse with her innocent eyes.

She is still young and she cannot understand what "dead" and "gone" mean.

Seeing this, the nurse sighed deeply, her expression moved, rubbed the little girl's head and hurried away.

When Ji Lianqi came out of the bathroom, he saw Ye Ying standing there staring blankly at a certain place.

He followed her line of sight and saw the little girl as well.

"These are the people rescued from the rubble. They still had vital signs when they were brought in, but the hospital was overcrowded and many people couldn't be treated, so..." Ji Lianqi explained to Ye Ying softly.

Ye Ying held Ji Lianqi's hand and sighed softly: "This little girl is so pitiful. Her family is gone."

Ji Lianqi was moved as he looked at her profile. He suddenly pulled her up and walked towards the little girl. He fumbled in his pocket for a while and took out two packets of biscuits and gave them to the little girl.

Ye Ying recognized at a glance that this was the batch of supplies delivered by the Red Sun Food Factory.

She looked at Ji Lianqi in surprise.

Feeling her gaze, Ji Lianqi curled his lips slightly and said, "The supplies you donated have been eaten by the PLA comrades."

Ye Ying raised her eyebrows and smiled: "How do you know it was donated by me? Couldn't it have been donated by Hu Yong?"

"Because I understand you." Ji Lianqi expressed his inner thoughts without hesitation, his eyes and eyebrows were filled with a hint of tenderness, "An enthusiastic female comrade named Ye."

The little girl took the cookie and said timidly, "Thank you, uncle and aunt."

Ye Ying touched her dirty face with heartache. She really wanted to do something to help her, but she felt powerless as if she couldn't do anything. She could only turn around and leave helplessly with Ji Lianqi.

Suddenly, the medical staff came back with a large number of injured patients and hurriedly passed by them.

The white cloth wrapped around the injured person was suddenly blown away by the wind, revealing the true face underneath, a bloody mess.

Ji Lianqi covered Ye Ying's eyes with one hand, "Don't look! I'm afraid you'll have a nightmare if you look at it."

During this period of time he participated in rescue operations, he had seen all kinds of tragic situations.

Few of the people dug out from under the building were good people.

After the medical staff pushed all the people away, he let go of Ye Ying and pulled her into the ward.

The two stayed together for one night and talked a lot.

As soon as the sun rose, Ji Lianqi started to chase people away.

"Ye Ying, you should go back today! I also need to return to the front line to continue participating in the rescue. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back!"

The implication is that he doesn't have time to accompany her.

"You don't have to hurry. My original intention was to come and see you and then leave." Ye Ying looked at him reluctantly, "You go and get busy. See you in half a month!"

"Okay, then take care of yourself." Ji Lianqi looked at her deeply, turned around, and walked towards the hospital gate without looking back.

Ye Ying looked at the neat and sturdy back, her heart moved, and she shouted: "You too! If I find a new wound after you go back, you'll be kneeling on the washboard!"

Ji Lianqi slowed down his pace, turned around, raised his right hand, saluted her with a smile, and said, "I promise to listen to my wife."

Then, he quickly disappeared from her sight.

Wife? ! !

Hearing this new name coming out of Ji Lianqi's mouth, Ye Ying stood there alone, laughing like a fool.

The ironwood tree is blooming? How bizarre!
