Chapter 175 I Scare You

Perhaps she had guessed something in her heart, but in this situation she did not say it directly, but chose to remain silent.

"Captain Fu, you seem to be injured on the back?"

Li Liping shifted her attention to Fu Yanlin who was standing silently beside her.

There was indeed an inconspicuous but worrying wound on his back, obviously scratched in the chaos just now.

"I'll arrange for a doctor to see you."

She spoke in a calm tone, but her heart was still concerned about everything on the front line.

At this time, Qiao Jin, who had been standing quietly by the side, took the initiative to speak: "Dean Li, why don't you let me handle it for him. At this moment, there must be an urgent need for more people to carry out the treatment work, especially to provide necessary medical examinations for the fellow villagers who have just rushed here from their hometowns to take refuge."

Li Liping carefully looked at the two people standing in front of her, with both approval and a bit of pity in her eyes.

"Okay, that's Doctor Lao Qiao. Just find an empty room to bandage him first. I'm using the first, second and even third floors as a temporary shelter for the villagers in the disaster area."

There was a hint of helplessness in her words, but they were also full of trust in her colleagues.

"But it is said that the drug used to prevent diseases has strong side effects. Some people have reportedly developed liver dysfunction and hematopoietic cell problems. I don't think you two used that drug, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, before Fu Yanlin had time to react, Qiao Jin rushed to say, "I have received that kind of reagent injection treatment before."

Her words were firm and steady, even though her heart was already surging with emotions.

Hearing this, Li Liping, who had originally had a gentle expression, suddenly became solemn.

"Then when this emergency mission is over, you should go to the hospital immediately for a comprehensive blood test. Only by determining your health condition as soon as possible can we take appropriate treatment measures to intervene."

Her tone was serious yet caring.

"Okay, I will do the relevant checks as you suggest."

Qiao Jin nodded and agreed, her voice revealing calmness and determination.

After Li Liping left, only two people were left in the room, looking at each other in silence.

Fu Yanlin's gaze never left Qiao Jin's face, and the guilt and self-blame were so strong that it seemed as if it was about to overflow.

Seeing this, Qiao Jin could only open her red lips and slowly speak out her heart: "Fu Yanlin, this is not your fault, and you don't need to bear too much guilt for it."

She tried to calm the other person's anxiety with a gentle voice.

But he didn't seem to be able to forgive himself so easily. That deep and powerful voice sounded: "But the most important thing for you now is to go to the hospital for a detailed physical examination as soon as possible to confirm whether you are really affected by those side effects."

Their words were filled with the deepest concern for each other's safety.

"no!"

Qiao Jin refused firmly, her tone full of unquestionable determination, "I feel fine now, let me help you with your wound first. Fu Yanlin, you have helped me so many times, this time let me take care of you."

She knew very well in her heart that if she didn't do this, her guilt would become heavier and harder to let go.

Fu Yanlin was silent for a moment, his eyes lingering on her face with complicated expressions.

He knew that she did this to relieve her psychological burden.

Although he didn't quite agree in his heart, in the end, he nodded gently and respected her choice.

When they arrived at an empty ward, Qiao Jin quickly opened the medicine box beside the bed and began to check if there were any necessities missing.

"Fu Yanlin," her soft voice echoed in the silent space, "Can you take off your shirt first? Then I can see the injuries better."

Hearing this, the man who had been watching her did not move immediately, but just sat quietly on the hospital bed. His eyes were gentle yet powerful, as if he could directly feel her inner uneasiness and tension through space.

Then, at the moment when she turned her back to organize the tools, he had already taken off his clothes very consciously and neatly, revealing the strong body formed by years of rigorous training.

Whether it's the angular, muscular chest, the tight and powerful forearms, or even every blood vessel on the neck and shoulders that can be clearly seen under the light...

Every detail shows the strength and charm of this man.

At this moment, even though Qiao Jin, who had had many experiences of being alone together, couldn't help but take one more look. An uncontrollable ripple arose in his heart, and his heartbeat seemed to be disturbed by this sudden scene.

She had to force herself to look away and try to control her emotions so that the other party would not notice her loss of composure.

There was no need for too much action embellishment. Fu Yanlin just wore military pants and bare-chested, quietly waiting for her next instruction. Such a scene would shock anyone and make them stop.

In order to conceal the subtle changes on her face at the moment, and also hoping to adjust her mood and get back on track as soon as possible, she first took a few deep breaths to calm herself down as much as possible.

After calming down a little, Qiao Jin slowly stepped forward, stretched out her hand and began to carefully clean every tiny or obvious wound for him.

Although she was careful enough, the whole process still took quite a while due to the large number of them. Every slight sound when the cotton swab dipped in disinfectant touched her skin made her feel distressed.

Perhaps he noticed her overly caring attitude towards him and felt a little embarrassed. The man who had been looking at her with a gentle smile suddenly said, "No need to be so cautious. I'm not hurt. Don't worry."

Although the words were light, they were enough to relieve some of her pressure.

However, before Qiao Jin could answer, he suddenly raised his hand and grasped her right hand, and with some irresistible force, he guided it to move behind her, obviously wanting to guide her to pay attention to and treat the possible scars there...

This sudden move left Qiao Jin completely unable to react.

She was startled and panic suddenly surged in her heart. She instinctively wanted to retract her hand, but it was too late. The cotton swab in her hand inevitably touched the injured skin on his back.

Qiao Jin couldn't help but scream, "Fu Yanlin, how could you do this! Don't you know that this will make me worried?"

There was a hint of reproach and concern in her voice.

Fu Yanlin turned his head and stared at her quietly with gentle eyes. His eyes seemed to have magic, making people feel inexplicably at ease: "Qiao Jin, did I really scare you? I'm sorry, I didn't expect to make you so nervous."

His tone was very gentle, with a hint of apology.
