Guan Xun and Political Commissar Xu ran a long way away before Gu Qingqing came back to her senses and stumbled after them.

Hit by a bullet?!

Her mind went blank and she didn't dare to think of anything. She just wanted to see him as soon as possible.

Inside the clinic, everyone was in a hurry. The blood-stained gauze was carried out several times. Zhao Ze picked out a bullet head and placed it on the tray beside him.

After he put down the tweezers, his hands trembled slightly: "Captain Chu has lost too much blood. He needs a blood transfusion."

Guan Xun rolled up his sleeves and said, "Hit me!"

Zhao Ze, as a military doctor, had also donated blood to the captain, so he naturally knew his blood type. He shook his head and said, "Your blood type is A, and Captain Chu is O. That won't work."

He felt panicked as he looked at the man lying on the bed with a pale face and closed eyes, but he was a doctor and could not show it, otherwise others would only become more panicked.

"Is there anyone with type O blood?" Guan Xun looked around with bloodshot eyes. "Guards! Go find them! I don't believe that there is no one with type O blood in such a large army!"

"Platoon Leader Gu has type O blood," a military doctor suddenly said, "Has Platoon Leader Gu returned?"

"He's still at the front..."

"Hit me!" Gu Qingqing looked at the pale-eyed man lying on the army green iron bed and suppressed the fear in her heart: "My brother and I have the same blood type."

Knowing what kind of person Gu Qingqing was, this girl had never done anything unreliable, Zhao Ze did not verify it, and came directly to draw blood: "Captain Chu can't wait any longer, Qingqing, you have to bear with it."

A total of 400 milliliters of blood were drawn. Gu Qingqing felt a little dizzy. Zhao Ze gritted his teeth and said, "Not enough!"

"Brother Zhao, keep smoking." Her voice was a little weak.

"No more smoking." Guan Xun didn't expect this young comrade to be so brave. He frowned and said, "Go and call all the officers and soldiers who stayed behind in the corps! Do a blood test."

"It's too late!" Zhao Ze looked at the blood bag that was about to empty. The man on the bed showed no sign of waking up, and his face was anxious.

"Brother Zhao, don't hesitate, hit me!" Gu Qingqing simply rolled up her other sleeve and looked at him firmly.

Zhao Ze looked at her deeply, then looked at the man on the bed, and finally stopped hesitating.

This time, one hundred milliliters were transfused. The person on the bed moved his fingers. Zhao Ze breathed a sigh of relief and put away the syringe.

Wiping the sweat off his head, he said, "The wound is infected. I will have a fever tonight. I will be fine as long as I can get through tonight."

Guan Xun stood by the bed, lifted his coat and sat down: "I'll stay here to watch over him, you guys go do what you need to do."

There are many wounded soldiers retreating from the front line, but there are not enough people, and they are all waiting for treatment.

Zhao Ze nodded, and when he passed by Gu Qingqing, he gently patted her shoulder, bent down and whispered: "When you go back later, find An Nian and ask her to make some sugar water for you to drink."

Gu Qingqing stared blankly at the man lying on the bed, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses: "Thank you, Brother Zhao."

“It should be.”

There were only four people left in the room. Political Commissar Xu glanced at his old partner, tapped him on the back to comfort him, and then strode out the door.

Guan Xun appeared calm on the surface, but the veins on his hands resting on his knees were visibly bulging.

Fortunately... Fortunately.

The roots of the Chu family are still in his hands.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Guan Xun gathered his thoughts, turned around and waved to the girl sitting on the chair behind him.

"Good boy, come here."

Gu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and after making sure that she was being called, she stood up and walked to Guan Xun's side.

Her complexion was not much better than Chu Dai's. Thinking of how she didn't frown when she had her blood drawn just now, Guan Xun looked at her with a softer gaze: "Sit down, uncle wants to talk to you about Chu Dai."

Gu Qingqing sat down next to the bed as she was told, and listened to Guan Xun slowly and carefully recount all the details about the man on the bed.

"Adai is the son of my old leader. You should have guessed his father, the commander of the Southern Military Region, Chu Yuan."

"This child has been stubborn and arrogant since he was young. He always acts like he is the boss and he is too arrogant."

"He used to be even more rebellious, but after A-Yan got into trouble, he became more restrained."

"Ayan is Bai Rong's biological brother. He and Commander Chu's youngest son Chu Zhao grew up in the same compound and joined the army together."

Guan Xun's eyes were somewhat distant as he spoke. When he mentioned these children, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise: "I watched these children grow up. A-Yan is quiet and steady, A-Zhao is lively and outgoing, and A-Dai... A-Dai is like an eagle soaring in the sky, with the arrogance of a teenager, looking down on everything, and a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger."

"Among these children, the one I trust the most is A-Yan, and the one I worry about the most is A-Dai. I'm afraid he'll cause trouble."

"But I didn't expect that this child has never caused any trouble for me or his father. He seems to be more well-behaved than all the other children in the compound."

"Adai's mother died early. She had a severe hemorrhage and died during childbirth. His father was fighting on the front line at the time and didn't have time to come back."

Gu Qingqing listened carefully, her soft eyes falling on the thin face of the man on the bed.

"Adai's mother was born into a good family. She was the daughter of the Governor's Mansion. Later, she followed her father, a soldier, and suffered a lot. Chu Yuan, my old leader, also rose from a soldier to a military leader step by step, and then to his current position. He got there through great military exploits and countless deaths."

"The old leader had a stubborn temper and gave all the good things to Adai's mother. When he found out that Adai's mother died of childbirth, he refused to let him take a look at little Adai even though his mother held him in her arms. After handling the funeral, he went back to the battlefield."

When Gu Qingqing heard this, her eyes were filled with heartache and her chest ached.

"Adai has been stubborn since he was young and refuses to give in, but he is sensitive and can see through what others are going to do. He also knows that his father doesn't like him."

"This silly boy loves to argue with his father. His father wanted him to be a civilian in the Southern Military Region, but he refused and brought Ayan to the Construction Corps, saying he wanted to work under me."

When talking about Bai Yan, Guan Xun's eyes were filled with pity: "These two brothers would rush to wherever there was a battle, and would rush to the front without caring about their lives."

"Chief," Gu Qingqing asked softly, "How did Bai Yan... die?" She heard the conversation between Bai Rong and him that night. Bai Rong seemed to blame Chu Dai for her brother's death, and he also felt very guilty.

"This is not A-Dai's fault," Guan Xun glanced at the person lying on the bed and lowered his voice, "The enemy had a sniper lying in ambush. When A-Dai discovered it, it was too late. He didn't have time to remind A-Yan."

Gu Qingqing suddenly realized.

"Qingqing." Guan Xun said with a warm smile, "Can I call you that?"

"Of course." Gu Qingqing said quickly.

"Adai is a rebellious person. It will take a lot of effort to tame him."

Guan Xun lowered his eyes and looked at the man's white hand, with veins crisscrossing. He reached out and held it: "Qingqing, have you heard of the eagle-cooking?"

As soon as Gu Qingqing returned to the military compound, Xu Nian brought her a bowl of sugar water and watched her drink it before he felt relieved.

"Sister Anian, thank you." She forced a smile.

Xu Nian just patted her on the back gently, shook his head and said nothing.

Sun Shufen also brought over two white flour buns and shouted loudly: "Qingqing, eat something quickly. How could you bleed so much blood at once? It will hurt your body. Tomorrow I will ask your uncle to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to get some big bones for you to replenish your body."

"Thank you, auntie." Gu Qingqing didn't take the white flour steamed bun: "You can save it for Xiaotu and Xiaoxu." It must have been saved on purpose.

"We don't need this food." Sun Shufen insisted on giving it to her: "Silly girl, you are just stubborn. There are so many soldiers in the Corps, they are young and strong and don't lack blood. Why do they have to pick on you and beat you alone? This military doctor Zhao is really..."

Halfway through her speech, Sun Shufen realized that Xu Nian was still beside her.

Scolding someone else's man in front of her... Sun Shufen thought about it and decided to forget it. She smiled awkwardly: "Qingqing, eat quickly. I have to go back and coax Xiaoxu to sleep."

"You should go back soon." Gu Qingqing was about to send her to the door, but was stopped by Sun Shufen.

"Just take a good rest. Don't worry about me. It's just two steps away."

Sun Shufen went back in a flash, Xu Nian pursed her lips and said, "Qingqing, you should have a rest. If you need anything, come to the next room and call me."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Nian."

"No trouble."

"Squeak——" was the sound of the door closing.

Gu Qingqing turned off the light, sat at the head of the bed, took a bite of a white flour steamed bun, and put it aside.

Let’s eat it tomorrow.

Thinking of Gu Qinglie on the front line and Chu Dai who was dying in the sanitation center, she really lost her appetite.

She reached out from under the pillow and took out the photo. The edge of the photo paper had begun to curl. She reached out to smooth it out, her fingertips falling on the man's lazy brows.

His temperament in the photo is completely different from that in real life. In real life, he is more stern and you can't help but shudder when he looks at you. He makes you feel very oppressive.

But when he and Gu Qinglie sat opposite her to eat, he was like a sword that had been sheathed, all its sharpness gone, leaving only a sense of lazy arrogance.

Gu Qingqing is becoming increasingly confused about how many sides this man has and which one is the real him.

Captain Guan said that he has been stubborn and proud since he was a child, and the only way to tame him is to spend time with him.

Then just endure it.

Gu Qingqing thought.

Sooner or later he will be tamed.

She didn't sleep well that night. The next morning, after eating the two white steamed buns left on the table, she went to wash up and then went to the toilet.

Chu Dai had already woken up. He sat by the bed. Bai Rong sat next to him with porridge in her hand and tried to feed him. He stretched out his right hand with a bandage around his wrist and said, "Give it to me."

"Brother Adai!" Bai Rong was angry and avoided him from touching the bowl: "You can't move now. Military Doctor Zhao said that you can only feed her."

Chu Dai glanced at her indifferently and withdrew his hand.

"Let Zhao Ze feed me."

Gu Qingqing, who had just come in, happened to hear the man's weak voice, and her anxious heart finally settled down.

Zhao Ze came over with the IV bottle and stood by the bed to change the man's dressing. He also saw Gu Qingqing and thought: "You are the bullet that blocked Qinglie's way. He should be the one to feed you."

"But he's still commanding at the front. How about letting Sister Qingqing feed you?"

Gu Qingqing felt the indifferent gaze from the man on the bed, and her heart tightened.

He was actually blocking bullets for his second brother?
