Chapter 89 Leg Injury Relapse

Although Xie Xiangyang didn't know Song Zhihe, he guessed what role he played.

I couldn't help but think of the person I met at the school gate last time.

I was silently worried for Zhou Zhengting.

At the same time, I also felt that it was not worth it for Zhou Zhengting.

During this period, Zhou Zhengting's leg injury relapsed and he underwent intermittent rehabilitation in the military academy for more than a month.

Now I can participate in training normally.

However, the person who caused his leg injury to relapse came to eat Western food with others.

Thinking of this, Xie Xiangyang couldn't help but reveal the fact that Zhou Zhengting's leg injury had relapsed.

"Old Zhou, I'll open it when we get back. Your leg injury has just healed with great difficulty, so make sure it doesn't relapse."

Zhou Zhengting glared at him, but it was too late to stop him.

Sure enough, I heard that Zhou Zhengting's leg injury relapsed.

The string of worry that had been secretly in Jiang Qingyue's heart suddenly broke.

At the same time, I immediately figured it out.

No wonder he heard the nurse's voice on the phone before leaving the country.

No wonder Zhou Zhengting never came to see me again after that.

It turns out that he has been undergoing rehabilitation during this period.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't tell what her mood was at the moment, but she felt very uncomfortable.

She knew very well how Zhou Zhengting's leg injury relapsed.

Jiang Qingyue lowered her eyes and glanced at his legs, her throat feeling a little dry.

I want to say something, but I don't know how to start.

Zhou Zhengting saw what she was thinking and quickly whispered to comfort her, "Don't listen to what Old Xie said, it's not a big deal, I was just too tired from training, I'm completely fine now, really."

In front of so many people, especially in front of Jiang Weidong, Jiang Qingyue didn't know what to say.

He just hummed softly.

When the food came, Zhou Zhengting took the steak he ordered and cut it into small pieces.

He placed it in front of Jiang Qingyue and said, "Why have you lost weight recently? Eat more meat to replenish your body."

Jiang Weidong, who was standing by, couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw how attentive he was.

Anyway, he now thinks Zhou Zhengting is not good in every way.

He is inferior to Song Zhihe in every way.

Then he said unhappily, "Platoon Leader Zhou, my sister is not a three-year-old child. She knows what she wants to eat and what she doesn't want to eat. She has her own hands and feet. You don't have to worry about her."

Zhou Zhengting's outstretched hand froze, and he laughed dryly, "I'm just worried that she'll be picky about food."

Zhou Zhengting didn't know how he had offended him.

But he is Jiang Qingyue's brother, and nothing can be done to him.

Seeing the tension between the two, Jiang Qingyue could only symbolically fork a piece of steak and said, "Thank you, Comrade Zhou. You can eat some too."

After saying that, he picked up some of his own portion and gave it to Jiang Weidong.

"Third brother, you eat too."

Because of the undercurrent of conflict between the two, Jiang Qingyue felt extremely tired during the meal.

Halfway through the meal, I went to the bathroom to get some fresh air.

After coming out of the bathroom, Jiang Qingyue looked down and didn't see Zhou Zhengting standing next to her, and almost bumped into him.

Zhou Zhengting directly pulled the man to hold him, "Be careful, you don't even look at the road when you walk."

Jiang Qingyue looked up at him and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Wait for you, I have something to tell you."

Jiang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then silently walked to the window of an empty corridor.

"Zhou Zhengting, I didn't know your leg injury relapsed. I'm sorry, if it weren't for——"

"Jiang Qingyue, I didn't come to you to hear this."

"......"

"Liar, last time you said you would call me when you got to the countryside, but I waited for so long and there was no call."

"Zhou Zhengting, don't be like this."

Seeing her cold look, Zhou Zhengting felt heartbroken.

After not seeing each other for so many days, he had been secretly wondering if Jiang Qingyue would miss him a little bit.

I have thought more than once whether our relationship could be slightly improved after we meet again.

When they were setting up the stall together in the afternoon, Jiang Qingyue was already very relaxed in front of him.

But just as he was about to take another step forward, she immediately picked up the shield and used it to block herself.

Zhou Zhengting suddenly felt dejected, "I know, I won't say it next time."

Jiang Qingyue nodded, turned around and went to the front desk immediately, intending to settle the dinner bill first.

But the waiter told me that someone had already paid the bill.

Jiang Qingyue looked at Zhou Zhengting with a puzzled look on her face, "Didn't we agree that I'll treat you if you owe me a meal?"

Zhou Zhengting hummed lightly, "Next time, I just paid for it. Next time, please treat me alone."

Jiang Qingyue refused and wanted to ask the waiter how much it was and planned to return the money to Zhou Zhengting.

But Zhou Zhengting was already holding back a ball of anger, and he pulled her away from the front desk, "It's ok for the guy surnamed Song to invite you to dinner, but it's not OK for me to invite you, right?"

Jiang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then closed her eyes and said, "It was Third Brother who invited us last time. In addition to Editor-in-Chief Song, there was also his friend named Gu who went to help him last time."

Zhou Zhengting immediately understood.

It turned out not to be what he thought.

It turned out that the guests were invited because of Jiang Weidong’s incident last time.

Zhou Zhengting felt extremely regretful and coughed lightly, "Indeed, I should have invited him. He is an outsider and he came out to help, so I really need to thank him. You don't have to be so polite in front of me. Save the money for your own use later, okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Qingyue didn't wait for her to speak.

The remaining three people in the restaurant have also walked out.

Jiang Weidong nodded to Zhou Zhengting, and then called out to Jiang Qingyue, "Little sister, it's getting late, we should leave."

Seeing that the two seemed to have something else to say, He Tiantian directly pulled Jiang Weidong over.

“No hurry.”

Jiang Qingyue glanced at Zhou Zhengting and said, "Then let's go back first. You and Comrade Xie should go back early as well! Drive slowly on the road after dark!"

Zhou Zhengting moved his lips, wanting to say something else.

But because so many people were there, I had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, I'll go back then."

After leaving, Zhou Zhengting remembered that he had forgotten the most important thing.

I forgot to ask Jiang Qingyue which building she lives in and her dormitory number.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Qingyue probably wouldn't give it to him.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly, stepped on the accelerator and headed towards the suburbs.

After Zhou Zhengting left, Jiang Qingyue also planned to leave.

"Third brother, you take Tiantian back. I'll go home directly."

"Okay, be careful on the road. By the way, I'll give you the money for the meal."

Jiang Qingyue shook her head helplessly, "No need, when I came out to pay the bill just now, Zhou Zhengting had already rushed to pay in advance."

Jiang Weidong was puzzled. "Why is this guy rushing to pay? We don't even need him for a meal. Really?"

He Tiantian, who was standing by, saw this and pushed Jiang Weidong. "Alright, I think you drank too much just now. Qingyue, don't pay attention to him. We're leaving first."

"Okay, go slowly on the road."
