Chapter 52 From now on, even if I'm talking to a dog, I won't pay any attention to him.

However, this unfamiliar face bore no resemblance to his father.

Who exactly is he to her Su family?

Su Meng felt as if she were trapped in a fog, vaguely seeing a outline but unable to see the whole picture, and desperately wanting to tear everything apart.

Little did she know, her thoughts had been observed by the man beside her.

After reading her heartfelt words, Huo Zhenhua was taken aback, but also felt a hidden excitement.

So, she should be willing to go to the military region now, right?

Can……

"Xie Mian is a native of our military region and I have never heard of him having any connection with Shanghai."

These people underwent political vetting when they joined the army.

Huo Zhenhua couldn't bear to see the young girl's hopes dashed, so he told her the truth.

Hearing him say that, Su Meng calmed down.

She firmly believed that Xie Mian was a member of her Su family.

His bloodline characteristics cannot be faked.

"Oh! He's so badly injured, he probably can't go on the mission, right?"

Her intention was to ask Xie Mian whether he should return to the military region to report for duty or go home to recuperate.

Huo Zhenhua thought she was asking about something, so he turned his head to examine her, his facial features tightening, and warned in a cold voice: "This is not something you should be concerned about, Dr. Lin."

He deliberately emphasized the words "Dr. Lin," his gaze becoming deep and his aura suddenly rising.

Su Meng once again felt his sharp gaze and commanding tone, and she felt completely uneasy.

She tried to control her emotions and turned to leave.

I'm so angry!

That scoundrel must be a reincarnation of a hedgehog spirit, covered in thorns.

He was constantly on guard against her, as if he was afraid she would dig up his ancestral graves.

She shouldn't have talked to him.

snort!

From now on, even if I talk to a dog, I won't pay any attention to it.

Dr. Cheng looked at this person and then that person with suspicion, trying to minimize his presence.

He couldn't understand why this soldier's expression changed so quickly.

From gentle to stern, it's like a Sichuan opera face-changing act.

strangeness!

Fortunately, the somber atmosphere was quickly broken.

"Commander Huo, you're back!"

As soon as Wu Yanru opened her eyes, she saw Huo Zhenhua's back and happily ran over, "Are you thirsty? I'll get you some water."

Huo Zhenhua remains consciously deaf.

He glanced at Su Meng, who had turned and left, his brows furrowed.

This was the third time she had turned away coldly without saying a word.

Huo Zhenhua was very annoyed. Ignoring Wu Yanru's chatter beside him, he turned and walked away.

Wu Yanru panicked and tried to grab his wrist, but only managed to grab his belt that was sticking out from his waist. "Commander Huo, you haven't had any water yet."

Huo Zhenhua stared at her hand expressionlessly and said coldly, "Let go!"

The voice was as cold as icicles hanging from the eaves in the dead of winter, sharp and chilling.

Wu Yanru was startled and immediately let go, tears welling up in her eyes, feeling wronged. "I just felt sorry for you, how could you be so cold-hearted..."

Before she could utter the next four words, she looked up and met the man's cold gaze. Startled, the words swirled in her throat, like a fishbone stuck in her throat.

Before she could even swallow her saliva, his solemn and earnest words rang out above her head, "Comrade, my mission is to defend my country and my homeland. I have no time for sentimental matters. Please have some self-respect!"

When he said "Please have some self-respect," he glanced, intentionally or unintentionally, at the woman who had squatted back down and was whispering to herself, and his expression visibly darkened.

Su Meng, oblivious to everything, took a book from Dr. Cheng and flipped through it. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she blurted out, "How dare you carry it with you?"

This is a foreign language medical book, which was probably smuggled back from abroad.

Unaware of Dr. Cheng's background, Su Meng hurriedly handed it back, saying, "If someone sees this, my future will be miserable."

Dr. Cheng smiled wryly: "Don't be so easily frightened; no one will see."

I showed it to you because I trusted you, since you just heard you highly praising his theory.

Su Meng felt a surge of warmth in her heart. After hesitating for a while, she accepted the gift. "Thank you! I will return it to you as soon as possible."

The rain outside was pouring down harder and harder, like the Milky Way bursting its banks.

It should have been a time of bright, warm morning sunshine, but the sky was as gloomy as if dusk were falling.

Dr. Cheng also took out a book and sat down beside her. "Take your time reading! I don't know when it will be open to traffic."

Su Meng pinched the corner of the page with her fingers and glanced at the other person, who had written "Cheng Wangshu" on it.

Cheng Wangshu?

His name reflects his personality; he has a gentle and scholarly air about him and is a thoughtful and easy-going person.

She pursed her lips slightly and opened the book to read.

At this moment, Wu Yanru ran over, looking aggrieved, "Dr. Lin, why would he do this?"

It was hard and smelly, even smellier than the rocks in a latrine.

Su Meng looked at her in surprise, not understanding why she would complain to her.

She's dressed as a man now.

Wu Yanru continued smacking her lips, "Do you think I should continue?"

Su Meng quickly closed the book in her hand, her eyes darted around, and a mischievous smile crept onto her lips. "Continue! As the saying goes: sincerity can move mountains."

If he remains unmoved, then he'll have no regrets, won't he?

Whenever she felt a little relaxed, that man would throw cold water on her mood.

He didn't like women, so she encouraged Wu Yanru to keep pursuing and pestering him.

hehe!

She is just that kind.

Wu Yanru rested her chin on her hands, nodding her head slightly, her eyes brightening again. "You're right! The long march has only just begun, I can't back down."

Then she leaned closer and said, "You guys are gay, can you give me some advice on how to win him over?"

Su Meng: "...I don't know."

She can't afford to create more bad karma.

"If you really can't warm it up, look back and see if there's one that suits you."

Cheng Wangshu gave her a few strange looks, and only after watching Wu Yanru walk away thoughtfully did she ask in a low voice, "Are you very familiar with them?"

Su Meng shook her head, "We were just strangers who met by chance!"

Cheng Wangshu smiled.

He wasn't a talkative person and quickly turned his attention back to the book.

Time flies, and another day has passed in the blink of an eye. The landslide area has finally been cleared and secured.

As the whistle sounded, the train emerged from the tunnel and plunged into the continuous rain.

Su Meng was worried about Xie Mian, so she stayed in the third carriage to take care of the patient.

After Huo Zhenhua returned to his sleeper car, he saw Wu Yanru sitting upright beside him. He paused for a moment, then turned and went to the dining car.

Xie Mian saved him; he should go and help take care of the little girl.

However, when he found the food cart, he learned that the little girl had been taken away by Wang Qinglin.

He walked back to the carriage in silence and saw that Wang Qinglin seemed to be waiting for him.

Before he could speak, Wang Qinglin said first, "Commander, here's a steamed bun for you."

Only when he smelled the aroma of food did Huo Zhenhua realize that his stomach was empty.

"You brought back the little girl that Xie Mian was with?"

Wang Qinglin: "She wanted to see Xie Mian, so I sent it over."

Huo Zhenhua paused in his chewing motion. "Alright!"

It's normal for children to be clingy to adults.

But when he saw the little girl clutching Su Meng's clothes while she slept, he raised an eyebrow in surprise and looked back and forth between them several times.

He exclaimed, "She really knows how to charm people."

He didn't believe Su Meng was a kind-hearted person. Could it be that Xie Mian really had a relationship with her?

Huo Zhenhua secretly made a mental note of it, intending to investigate it carefully.

The sound of rain is the best lullaby. He leaned back in his chair and finally closed his eyes in exhaustion.

Su Meng lulled the little girl to sleep, and as she listened to her magical snoring, the words on the book gradually became blurry and indistinct, and her eyelids drooped uncontrollably.

After an unknown amount of time, a tremendous force pushing them back and a screeching sound of brakes jolted everyone awake.

Su Meng caught the little girl who almost fell and whispered soothingly, "Little Qi, it's okay!

Fortunately, both sides of the hospital bed were carefully bound with wooden sticks to make simple handrails, which reduced the risk of the injured person falling due to inertia.
