early morning.

Su Yan was woken up by Zou Jialun.

"Miss Su, wake up." Zou Jialun nudged her shoulder.

"Mmm," Su Yan responded softly, feeling her eyelids so heavy she could barely open her eyes.

Upon seeing the person standing opposite her hospital bed, her sleepiness vanished instantly.

"Dr. Zou! You've arrived?" she said, getting up and stretching her limbs.

She felt unwell all over, wondering if it was because she was tired.

Zou Jialun looked at her disapprovingly, "Why don't you get yourself a room to rest? How can you handle things if you're not well-rested?"

"It's okay, I'm used to it," she blurted out instinctively.

Zou Jialun was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "The way you're talking makes it sound like you've been in the workforce for a long time."

Su Yan knew she had said the wrong thing, but she said without changing her expression, "You came so early, did the doctor you contacted agree?"

"No." Zou Jialun's smile vanished, and he said dejectedly, "One person refused, and the other two haven't returned my calls yet."

He invited the person out of his own capacity, so it's normal for them to look down on him and refuse; that's just how reality is.

“I think the other two are also in doubt. You’d better call Jiang Jingxing,” he said.

Su Yan rubbed her eyes, pursed her lips and said, "I understand. I'll make a call later and buy some food while I'm at it."

Zou Jialun nodded and then said, "The blood clots in your grandma's head are like a time bomb, and given her age, the sooner the doctor arrives, the better."

He was just an orthopedic surgeon and didn't know much about craniotomy, but he knew it was very difficult, which explained why the doctors at his hospital were hesitant to take on the case.

Grandpa Li woke up and said, "Ayan, go out and make a call. Grandpa will take care of Leizi, Huzi, and your grandma."

Li Juan was taken to the guesthouse by Su Yan to rest last night, so she is not in the ward right now.

"Okay, I'll go make the call first."

She then looked at Zou Jialun and said, "Dr. Zou, would you mind coming out with me?"

Outside the ward.

Zou Jialun: "Do you have any other questions?"

Su Yan cut to the chase: "Brother Jiang asked me to ask you for help. I don't want the Su family members to get out of jail. Can Dr. Zou do that?"

"You can rest assured about that. Commander Jiang already spoke to me yesterday. I'll do whatever you ask for." Zou Jialun said jokingly, "To be honest, in all the time I've known him, this is the first time I've seen him care so much about someone, especially a woman."

He was telling the truth. After that phone call last night, he finally understood that Jiang Jingxing was interested in Su Yan!

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Su Yan's face as she lowered her head and said, "Okay, I understand."

Zou Jialun didn't notice her unease and continued, "I've had someone keep an eye on your grandfather's group. You can decide how to deal with them after we've settled your maternal grandmother's matter."

"Thank you, Dr. Zou," she said gratefully.

"I was just asked to do this, so if you want to thank someone, thank Commander Jiang."

Su Yan: "..." Jiang Tuanjiang, the leader of the regiment... will this ever end?

"Then I'll go make the call first."

After saying that, she turned and left.

As Zou Jialun watched her retreating figure, he couldn't help but recall the tone of Jiang Jingxing's command to him to do his job properly last night.

"Tsk."

Su Yan is only 18.

He's already 27, and this older man dating a younger woman is something I admire.

...

Su Yan found a phone booth at the hospital entrance and dialed Jiang Jingxing's number without hesitation.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the call was finally answered.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

It was a woman's voice, gentle and soft.

Su Yan frowned slightly, but still said, "I'm looking for Jiang Jingxing. Could you please give her the phone?"

After a few seconds of silence, the person on the other end spoke again: "Looking for Brother Jingxing? What's your name? What's your relationship with him?"

These words were full of sharp questioning, like checking a criminal's household registration.

Su Yan suppressed her displeasure and said calmly, "Comrade, I don't think I have an obligation to answer your question. Please hand the phone to Commander Jiang."

"How am I supposed to know who you are if you don't tell me?" the woman said irritably. "I'm hanging up if you don't tell me."

"My name is Su Yan, I'm the younger sister of his comrade-in-arms, and I have something very important to discuss with him." Su Yan said, her anger rising and her breathing becoming erratic.

The other person just sneered and said sarcastically, "What comrade's sister? I think you're just trying to use that as an excuse to pester Brother Jingxing. Let me tell you, you're dreaming!"

As soon as I finished speaking, the phone went dead.

Su Yan's face darkened, and she wished she could reach through the internet cable and slap her twice.

She called back three times in a row, and each time the call was disconnected.

Su Yan completely lost her patience and stormed out of the phone booth, cursing Jiang Jingxing to the core in her mind!

at the same time.

Beijing Military Region.

When Jiang Jingxing returned from his vacation and finished the meeting, he saw the woman sitting on his desk as he walked to his office door. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Who are you?"

Chen Yuwei had just hung up the phone when she heard the voice. She immediately turned around, got off the table, and stood properly. When she saw the handsome and tall man in front of her, her heart started racing.

Composing herself, she smiled confidently and extended her hand to the man, introducing herself, "Hello, Commander Jiang, my name is Chen Yuwei, and I am also Political Commissar Pang's niece."

Jiang Jingxing glanced at the fair hand, but remained unmoved.

"What do you need me for?" he asked.
