Chapter 33 Brother Chen~~ brought a wild woman?!

However, when she saw Su Yue getting out of the back seat of the car, the smile on her face instantly froze.

Her gaze was like two poisoned knives, fixed on Su Yue, scrutinizing her from head to toe. Her eyes first showed astonishment, then ignited with a raging fire of jealousy.

Su Yue keenly sensed the hostility in the other person's eyes.

Brother Chen?

The way she was addressed made Su Yue's heart skip a beat. She subconsciously looked up and carefully examined the man in front of her.

Tall and imposing, with broad shoulders and long legs, he wore a crisp military uniform that exuded a cold, unapproachable aura. His profile was sharply defined, his thin lips were tightly pressed together, and his entire being radiated a strong, steely presence befitting a soldier.

Isn't this the seriously injured man I pulled back from the brink of death in that abandoned old house in Shanghai last month?

He was unconscious at the time, and she only remembered a general outline. But now, this face, this physique, and this aloof and cold temperament instantly overlapped with that blurry figure deep in her memory!

And this woman called him Brother Chen.

Could he be Gu Beichen?!

My childhood sweetheart, whom I've never met and who only exists in telegrams and other people's stories?!

Su Yue's heart was instantly filled with turmoil, and for a moment she was both amused and exasperated.

This world is far too small.

Their savior and fiancée met for the first time in a deep, gun-ridden forest, when they were still strangers to each other.

What kind of situation is this?

Just as Su Yue's heart was in turmoil, the female doctor could no longer contain herself. She turned her gaze to Gu Beichen, her tone carrying a questioning tone.

"Brother Chen, who is she?"

Gu Beichen didn't even glance at her; his voice was icy cold.

"Dr. Shen, this comrade was injured in the mountains and needs treatment."

He deliberately emphasized the title "Dr. Shen," making it sound distant and official.

The woman referred to as Dr. Shen is Shen Jianguo's younger sister, Shen Qingqing.

Relying on her family's long-standing friendship with the Gu family and being a top student from Beijing, she always acted arrogantly in the hospital, convinced that Gu Beichen was hers for the taking.

At this moment, seeing that Gu Beichen had personally brought back such a beautiful stranger, her alarm bells went off to the highest level.

Shen Qingqing turned her gaze back to Su Yue, her eyes burning with a desire to pierce through her.

"Where did you bring back this strange, unknown woman?"

The question was so sharp and insulting that several nurses passing by stopped to watch the spectacle.

Gu Beichen's face instantly darkened.

"Dr. Shen, watch your words."

"This comrade was injured during the mission. Arrange for someone to examine her wound immediately."

His words left no room for argument, carrying the commanding tone characteristic of a soldier.

Shen Qingqing was stunned by his cold attitude, her face turning pale and then red.

She never expected that Gu Beichen would scold her like that for a strange woman.

Meanwhile, Su Yue, at the center of the storm, remained remarkably calm.

She leaned against the car door, watching Shen Qingqing's performance with a leisurely air, a faint smile even curving her lips.

That smile, innocent yet with a hint of provocation, made Shen Qingqing feel restless and almost lose her composure on the spot.

Soon, two medical staff members jogged over, saluted Gu Beichen respectfully, and then cautiously said to Su Yue, "Comrade, please come with us."

Su Yue nodded and followed the medical staff into the treatment room.

Gu Beichen did not follow him inside. He stood outside the treatment room, his tall figure exuding a cold aura that kept strangers at bay.

His mind kept replaying Su Yue's behavior in the mountains and the unusually neat bandage on her arm.

Those clear yet cunning eyes...

That composure in the face of danger...

All of this highly overlaps with the mysterious woman who saved his life deep in his memory.

He quietly turned his head and whispered to his adjutant, Xiao Wang, behind him, "When did Su Yue arrive?"

Xiao Wang immediately stood at attention and replied, "Reporting to the regimental commander, Comrade Su Yue arrived yesterday afternoon, and Chief Engineer Shen personally escorted her to the entrance of the family compound."

Chief Engineer Shen?

Gu Beichen's brows furrowed even deeper.

Things seemed to be more complicated than he had imagined.

The treatment room.

The nurse in charge of cleaning the wound unwrapped the gauze from Su Yue's arm and gasped when she saw the deep, bone-revealing wound.

But when she saw the treatment around the wound, she let out a soft gasp of surprise.

"Huh?"

The doctor next to him leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

“Dr. Liu, look,” the nurse pointed to the edge of the wound, “this wound was treated so professionally. The bleeding was stopped thoroughly, the wound was cleaned very well, and even the bandaging technique… was more skillful than mine.”

Dr. Liu adjusted his glasses, observed carefully for a moment, and also showed an incredulous expression.

This is definitely the work of a professional!

Outside the door, Shen Qingqing was still unwilling to give up. She walked to Gu Beichen's side and put on a concerned look.

“Beichen, who exactly is this girl? Her background is unknown. How could you just bring her back to the military region? Also, do you know that the rumors are going around the family compound right now? They're saying... saying you've been bewitched by a vixen from Shanghai and that you have questionable morals…”

She lowered her voice, every word she uttered was provocative, trying to label Su Yue as having improper conduct.

Just then, the door to the treatment room opened.

Su Yue came out. Her arm had been re-bandaged with clean gauze. Her face was a little pale, but her eyes were still bright.

She happened to hear Shen Qingqing's last words and paused in her tracks.

She didn't look at Shen Qingqing, but instead stared directly at Gu Beichen, her eyes filled with a hint of amusement and disdain.

"Commander Gu, this is Su Yue."

She spoke, her voice cool and aloof.

"I heard you're very busy with military affairs and probably don't have time to pay attention to these 'rumors' in the family compound?"

A single sentence, seemingly casual, struck Gu Beichen's face like a slap.

This was not only a rebuttal to Shen Qingqing, but also a questioning of him, the regimental commander, for not being able to manage his own territory.

Gu Beichen's brow twitched violently.

Su Yue.

These two words were like a bullet, striking his brain precisely and causing chaos.

The fiancée who sent him a telegram saying she was going to "market research." The woman whom the old man of the Shen family personally escorted to the family compound. The woman whose strange skills and ruthless actions in the mountains made him secretly tremble.

It's the same person?

He suddenly turned his head, his sharp gaze sweeping over Shen Qingqing. His eyes were so cold that Shen Qingqing shivered.

"Dr. Shen."

He spoke again, his voice now filled with suppressed anger and an undeniable warning.

"My fiancée will not tolerate anyone slandering her."

"From now on, I don't want to hear any more gossip about her. Keep your mouth shut."

boom!

These words came as a bolt from the blue.

Shen Qingqing's face turned deathly pale instantly, all color drained from her. She staggered back a step, staring at Gu Beichen in disbelief.

Not... fiancée?

Could this woman be the one Gu Beichen has never met since childhood, his betrothed?

The nurses who were watching the commotion were all stunned. Their gazes toward Shen Qingqing changed, becoming filled with pity and amusement.

This is really like kicking a hornet's nest. Calling someone a vixen to their face is practically asking for trouble.

Gu Beichen ignored the petrified Shen Qingqing and turned to Su Yue, his tone softening slightly but still probing.

"I'll take you home."

He was struggling intensely inside.

This woman is Su Yue, his nominal fiancée.

But deep down, he had secretly fallen for the woman who had saved him in Shanghai.

He even considered that after finishing what he was doing, he would go and talk to his family to break off the engagement.

But now, it seems that these two identities are about to overlap in one person.

This left him feeling incredibly conflicted and torn.

He had to figure out whether the Su Yue in front of him was the same Su Yue as the real Su Yue.

Moreover, this woman seems to have a secret. She is skilled in martial arts and also knows medicine. Could she be an enemy agent?

Just as Gu Beichen was preparing to take Su Yue away and find a place to "interrogate" her properly.

Outside the hospital gate, a black military sedan screeched to a halt.

The car door opened, and an elderly man with gray hair but a sprightly spirit stepped out quickly.

It was none other than Mr. Shen Congwen.

As soon as he got off the car, he anxiously scanned the crowd, muttering to himself.

"Where is my precious goddaughter? Where is she?"
