Chapter 70 You're back too, aren't you? You're just as heavy as me...
It turns out that Gu Yan had arrived last night, but because he was worried about disturbing Zhao Shuyi and the others' sleep, he slept in the car overnight.
Hearing that he was ruining his body like this, Zhao Shuyi was extremely angry.
"Why are you like this? Can't you just stay at a guesthouse for one night?"
Seeing Zhao Shuyi's distress, Gu Yan hugged her and said, "It's okay. Our missions are much tougher than this. I am a soldier, and I must have the spirit of not being afraid of hardship or fatigue."
Zhao Shuyi snorted coldly, not wanting to talk to him.
"My wife is gone, let's go home."
The two of them lingered and packed their things all morning, taking quite a lot of time to pack. Dr. Tan had assigned Zhao Shuyi a task of reading twenty books, since she hadn't had any training for the past three days and had only played around at home.
Dr. Tan had him completely under her thumb.
Gu Yan didn't mind the trouble. He carried all those books and walked out of the house with Zhao Shuyi.
After loading everything into the car, Zhao Shuyi said she wanted to drive.
"Concerned about me?" Gu Yan asked in a smug tone.
Zhao Shuyi still didn't want to talk to him, but she didn't deny it either. She got into the driver's seat.
The car quickly drove onto the mountain road. Zhao Shuyi told Gu Yan to sleep for a while, but he wouldn't. He just stared straight at her, making Zhao Shuyi a little embarrassed. She could only say softly, "Why are you like this?"
Gu Yan found it amusing. "How am I?"
"It's always like this. You'll sleep in the small room tonight."
Gu Yan chuckled softly, as if he hadn't taken her words to heart at all.
He knew that Zhao Shuyi couldn't bear to let him sleep in the small room.
After the two bickered for a while, Gu Yan said, "I should be able to transfer to Chuncheng before the end of the year."
"Really?" Zhao Shuyi looked at him, her eyes sparkling.
Gu Yan said with a stern face, "Look ahead."
Zhao Shuyi said "oh" and immediately focused on driving. Actually, her driving skills were not bad, but Gu Yan cared about her, so of course she had to listen to him.
Gu Yan said, "After completing one or two more tasks, we should be able to get through."
Hearing this, Zhao Shuyi wasn't too happy and asked, "It's a very dangerous mission, isn't it?"
If it's not a very dangerous mission, transferring Gu Yan there now wouldn't be beneficial for him. But if it is a very dangerous mission, wouldn't he be in great danger? Would the kind of thing that happens in the book happen?
Zhao Shuyi couldn't remember what mission he had completed in the book no matter how hard he tried.
"It's not too dangerous; it's within the scope of normal missions."
The more he said this, the more worried Zhao Shuyi became, and she instructed him, "The easier the task seems, the less we should let our guard down."
She had great confidence in Gu Yan's abilities, so if something happened to him, it was likely to be an insignificant task.
Gu Yan nodded, naturally he would listen to his wife. He had been very careful on this trip and had indeed avoided several minor crises. If he had followed his usual somewhat adventurous nature, he might have come back injured this time.
Grandpa is right, you can't go wrong listening to your wife.
"I will definitely take good care of myself and come back safe and sound. I will definitely not give you a me who is missing an arm or a leg."
He always liked to tell jokes even when he was being serious, and Zhao Shuyi would hit him.
Gu Yan chuckled softly; his wife was just too adorable.
On the other side, Xu Wanqing arrived at the entrance of Chuncheng Military Region Hospital.
She couldn't wait any longer. She had originally thought that submitting her report would at least elicit some reaction, and that Zhao Shuyi would be investigated.
As a result, no news reached the family compound at all.
The family compound is too remote and poorly informed.
Ever since she learned that Zhao Shuyi had secretly returned that night, she had been itching to go back, so she insisted on coming to the military hospital to see her, thinking that perhaps Zhao Shuyi had been arrested in Chuncheng.
She can come and check the message, and then bring it back with her, right?
If nothing happens, she thinks she could become a doctor at the hospital, since she can always ask about the situation.
For some reason, every time Xu Wanqing walked to the military hospital, she always felt as if she had something very important to her there, but she could never quite grasp what it was.
Just as she was about to walk inside, she brushed past a young woman.
"Hello comrade, are you a nurse at the military hospital?"
Although the other person wasn't wearing a white coat, judging from their demeanor and the medical book in their hand, Xu Wanqing felt that the other person must work at a military hospital.
"Hello, comrade, is there anything I can help you with?"
Qiu Jiawen looked at the woman in front of her and couldn't help but take another look. The woman was beautiful and had a gentle expression, looking like someone who was easy to get along with. Her tone of voice was also unconsciously gentle when she spoke.
Seeing that Qiu Jiawen was easy to talk to, Xu Wanqing's smile deepened. "Excuse me, comrade, does your hospital have a doctor named Zhao Shuyi?"
The other person's expression was a bit strange when they asked the question, and Qiu Jiawen became secretly alert. She asked, "Do you need to see Doctor Zhao for something?"
Xu Wanqing shook her head. "It's nothing. I just heard about Zhao Shuyi in Beijing before. I don't remember anyone in her family studying medicine. Besides, she only recently married into Yunnan Province. How did she get a job at a military hospital?"
“I was really curious, so I came to find out if she had taken someone else’s place. If so, it would be so unfair to others.”
These days, people hate things like impersonation the most. She thought that if she said that, even if the other party didn't share her hatred, they would definitely gossip about it with her.
To her surprise, the other person looked her up and down, and said without changing his expression, "You must have the wrong person. Dr. Zhao is very capable. She recently participated in our military hospital's training program and passed with the highest score."
Qiu Jiawen suppressed her anger, "If, as you say, she's someone who doesn't know anything about medicine, how could she possibly get first place?"
"How could that be?" Qiu Jiawen still didn't believe it. Could there be two Zhao Shuyis in this world? "She doesn't know any medical skills at all. I wouldn't make things up."
Qiu Jiawen's expression was already very unpleasant. "Are you lying or am I lying? I came in second place. Would I protect her?"
Xu Wanqing was taken aback. She hadn't expected that the person she randomly found was someone who had studied with Zhao Shuyi. The way Zhao Shuyi spoke so confidently seemed to be telling the truth. Xu Wanqing was even more confused.
She was completely bewildered.
Could it be that my memory is inaccurate?
Qiu Jiawen glanced at the other woman a couple more times, said nothing more, and turned to leave. But Xu Wanqing suddenly grabbed her and asked, "I'd like to ask how I can get into a military hospital to study? My mother is a doctor, and I also have some medical background. Is it possible for me to work at a military hospital?"
Xu Wanqing was unwilling to accept this and didn't believe these people. She wanted to see for herself how Zhao Shuyi knew medicine.
Qiu Jiawen looked at Xu Wanqing as if she were an idiot, wondering if there was something wrong with her mind.
Is a military hospital a place anyone can just come and go as they please?
She felt that this person must have a grudge against Shuyi and wanted to annoy her.
"I don't know either, you should ask the people inside." After saying that, she ignored the other person and left.
After leaving, Qiu Jiawen did not go directly to the family compound to find Dr. Tan, but went to the post office to call Zhao Shuyi.
Xu Wanqing felt uncomfortable being ignored like this. Actually, she wasn't usually this impulsive, especially when it came to these kinds of things, but lately, for some reason, she couldn't seem to control her temper.
When she saw Qiu Jiawen, she felt that he looked very kind, so she couldn't help but tell him what was on her mind.
Xu Wanqing knew, of course, that getting into the military hospital was no easy feat, but she wanted to know how Zhao Shuyi had managed to do so.
She believed that if she wanted to get in, Zheng Jingcheng would definitely find a way to help her, and it wouldn't be too difficult.
Although he rejected her, she was confident that she could control Zheng Jingcheng.
What's so great about working at a military hospital?
What Xu Wanqing found most unacceptable was that everyone said Zhao Shuyi's medical skills were good, praising Zhao Shuyi in every way possible.
This is clearly the treatment that should be given to me.
Xu Wanqing calmed herself down and didn't chase after Qiu Jiawen anymore. Instead, she turned around and went into the military hospital.
It was only then that she realized that the letter of complaint she had submitted earlier seemed to have had absolutely no effect.
Zhao Shuyi is not only fine, but she also has people protecting her, and she even won first place in some assessment.
How can she be so amazing?
After Xu Wanqing went inside, she took some candy from her pocket and handed it to the nurse on duty. The nurse wasn't too busy, and seeing that Xu Wanqing was giving her candy and was quite friendly, she started chatting with her casually.
When Zhao Shuyi was mentioned, everyone praised her again, saying that Dr. Zhao was exceptionally capable, and even Director Kong recognized her abilities, saying that she had ranked first in several exams.
Hearing these words of praise for Zhao Shuyi, Xu Wanqing even felt that the Zhao Shuyi she knew might be a fake.
Suddenly, something flashed through Xu Wanqing's mind, and she felt as if she knew exactly where the problem lay.
Zhao Shuyi is definitely not the Zhao Shuyi she knows, or perhaps Zhao Shuyi is someone who has returned from a past life.
"No, no, that's impossible."
Even Zhao Shuyi in her previous life didn't have such abilities now.
Could it be that she really isn't Zhao Shuyi, but some other soul, and that Zhao Shuyi has been possessed and reincarnated?
Thinking about her own and Gao Zhiyun's family's fate, and considering the strength the other party had displayed, Xu Wanqing felt she had guessed the truth.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or depressed.
She should have caught Zhao Shuyi red-handed, but she didn't know how capable Zhao Shuyi really was. What if she couldn't beat her at all?
Then Xu Wanqing thought again that she was overthinking it. If Zhao Shuyi was really that powerful, why wouldn't she dare to come to see her? She must be feeling guilty.
Thinking this, Xu Wanqing cheered up again.
She finally caught Zhao Shuyi red-handed!
"Comrade, I'd like to ask how ordinary people like us can get a job at a military hospital? Do you know?"
The nurse, who had been speaking so kindly just moments before, looked her up and down, giving her an expression that seemed to think she was dreaming.
Meeting the other person's disdainful gaze, Xu Wanqing felt stifled, but she had to pretend not to see it and try to get information out of him.
After giving the other person some more candy, Xu Wanqing said, "Tell me about that training program you mentioned. Who is eligible to participate?"
"Training? That requires doctors recommended by the hospitals below. If you want to work at our hospital, you must first be a doctor with many years of experience, and you also need a recommender."
“But I heard that Dr. Zhao didn’t have much experience before she came to the training. She had only worked at the health clinic in the family compound for a while.”
Why is she allowed to come?
This wasn't the same nurse who had submitted the complaint letter last time. She was unaware that Zhao Shuyi had been reported before. Hearing that the other party was still inquiring, she couldn't help but praise Zhao Shuyi again.
"That's different. Although Dr. Zhao came from the clinic, he was personally invited by our military hospital because he is talented and saved a soldier. Moreover, Dr. Zhao is Dr. Tan's apprentice."
The nurse looked on with longing. "With the guarantees of several leaders and her genuine abilities, she will naturally be able to enter the military hospital. Our hospital is still short of talent. If you can demonstrate your medical skills, you might be able to get in too."
If Zhao Shuyi were here, she could only say that Director Kong had paved the way for her too well.
The nurse's words were somewhat dismissive of Xu Wanqing.
After all, only those who study medicine know how difficult it is. It's not something you can learn just because you want to, nor can you learn it in a couple of days. But there are quite a few people who daydream about it.
The nurse was almost ready to give up on talking to this person. If it weren't for the few candies, she wouldn't have bothered with him at all.
"Alright, you can find your own way now, I have to go to work."
The nurse urged Xu Wanqing to leave.
Xu Wanqing could naturally see the other party's impatience. She felt annoyed, but she had already found out what she wanted, so she didn't linger any longer.
It turns out that Zhao Shuyi came to the military hospital because she cured Company Commander Xia. The person who possessed the body must have been a doctor before.
She had to find a way to expose the other party's true colors, but what method could she use?
Xu Wanqing was a little worried, but mainly she was afraid that she was no match for her opponent.
Zhao Shuyi was unaware that Xu Wanqing had not given up on targeting her, and they had already returned to the family compound.
Having not been home to her family compound for over half a month, Zhao Shuyi wanted to rush straight to her beloved little courtyard as soon as she saw it.
Gu Yan smiled as he carried his things inside before preparing to return the car.
"You rest for a while, I'll clean up these when I get back."
Zhao Shuyi wasn't the type to leave all the work to her. As soon as he left, she started working like a busy little bee.
Hearing her voice, Xia Mulan from next door quickly came over and returned the key to Zhao Shuyi.
The two talked about some recent events. Although Xia Mulan's health had improved a lot, she still didn't like to go out for walks, so she mostly stayed at home with Xiao Liang.
She also mentioned that Xiao Liang's paintings had improved and that he had grown taller.
It's clear that she's quite satisfied with her current life.
Zhao Shuyi didn't try to persuade her to go out. Given the current situation outside, going out too often might not be a good thing.
"By the way, I saw that Company Commander Zheng's wife come looking for you earlier. I felt that she was deliberately trying to lead me to discover that you don't know medicine."
It was Xu Wanqing again; Zhao Shuyi was speechless.
"I scolded her, and then she left."
Xia Mulan asked, "Do you have some kind of conflict with her?"
Zhao Shuyi didn't know how to describe her relationship with Xu Wanqing. She couldn't say they weren't friends. Actually, they were friends before, but they definitely weren't friends anymore.
"We practically grew up together," Zhao Shuyi said, without adding anything else.
Now, there's a grudge!
"Don't pay attention to her. As long as she doesn't climb over the wall into our house, it's fine. She's a bit scheming, Mulan. Be careful when you're with her."
She wasn't afraid of anything else, but she was afraid that Xu Wanqing would find a way to get close to the people around her.
To be honest, there wasn't any real conflict between the two of them. I did report her family before coming to Yunnan Province, but that was because she wanted to harm people first.
But Xu Wanqing shouldn't know about this, so why is the other party always watching her?
However, there was no reason for the other party to target the original owner in the book.
It's really hard to guess.
The two had just started talking when a young soldier came over and said, "Comrade Zhao has your phone number. He wants you to call back in half an hour."
Where did my phone come from?
Zhao Shuyi was surprised, as she rarely left her phone number outside.
Logically speaking, no one should be looking for her for anything. Could it be that something happened at the hospital?
Sure enough, the young soldier said, "They came from the military hospital."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shuyi became somewhat anxious.
"Go answer the phone first," Xia Mulan urged her.
"Okay, when Gu Yan comes back, please tell him, Sister Mulan."
We might need to borrow the car later.
Zhao Shuyi hurriedly followed the young soldier, fearing that something bad might have happened. The only people she could think of besides Qiu Jiawen were Dr. Tan. Fortunately, she had returned with Gu Yan, otherwise she would have worried that something might have happened to Gu Yan.
When the time came, she called the other party and found that it was indeed Qiu Jiawen on the other end. However, Qiu Jiawen did not have any other important matters to attend to.
But it's related to Xu Wanqing again.
“I remember the last time you were reported. Although I don’t know who that person was, I felt that she was talking strangely. She implied that you didn’t know medicine, and she seemed to have ill intentions.”
"I understand, thank you. If she approaches you, just ignore her."
Qiu Jiawen hung up the phone hastily after confirming that Zhao Shuyi was alright; making a phone call these days isn't cheap.
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Shuyi still felt a bit upset.
She really didn't know how to describe how she felt.
Xu Wanqing's targeting of her is truly relentless. Could it be that in her untold memories, the original owner of this body killed her entire family?
At this moment, Zhao Shuyi felt that this was just a world in a book, and the logic of the world in the book was probably beyond her comprehension.
She bumped into Gu Yan on the street. Seeing that she looked dejected, Gu Yan quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "What happened? Are you unhappy?"
It was perfectly fine when I came back just now.
Zhao Shuyi glared at him but didn't say anything.
She felt that it was very likely that Gu Yan was the culprit.
If it weren't for Gu Yan, Xu Wanqing probably wouldn't feel so resentful.
Xu Wanqing must have been interested in Gu Yan's qualities from the very beginning, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to harm the original owner of this body and then come to Gu Yan to marry him. In the book, Gu Yan refused, but he did indeed attract Xu Wanqing.
Gu Yan realized that Zhao Shuyi's anger was directed at him. He raised an eyebrow, stepped forward, and put his arm around Zhao Shuyi's shoulder. "What's wrong, honey? What did I do wrong? How did I make you angry?"
"Just tell me what you think, and I'll change it right away."
Zhao Shuyi glared at him, annoyed. "All you do is try to make people happy. I told you I don't want to talk to you anymore."
"If I'm going to comfort someone, it's only you. I'm not comforting anyone else. What's wrong? Tell me. Don't ignore me."
Although it wasn't the first time Zhao Shuyi had seen Gu Yan act coquettishly, she still found it somewhat amusing, and her mood finally improved.
"I think I've been targeted by Xu Wanqing."
Zhao Shuyi felt that she couldn't keep this from Gu Yan. The other party might really be targeting her, and they would definitely cause trouble, since the report had already been sent to the office of the director of the military hospital.
She told Gu Yan everything about what had happened: she had been reported at the hospital, and when she returned, Xia Mulan told her that Xu Wanqing had been loitering around their neighborhood, and that Xu Wanqing had gone to the hospital today and spouted nonsense.
Gu Yan's expression grew increasingly grim as he listened.
He hadn't expected the other party to go to such lengths.
That's not right.
Gu Yan suddenly remembered the way Zhao Shuyi had glared at him earlier.
What does this have to do with him?
Did Zhao Shuyi think that Xu Wanqing had her eye on him?
On second thought, Gu Yan felt like he was being stuck to a leech, which was a bit disgusting.
“Wife, this has nothing to do with me. I’ve never seen her. She only came to talk to me that night and said some strange things, but I ignored her.”
Hearing this, Zhao Shuyi became even angrier.
"She even comes to see you at night, what does she mean by that?"
Zhao Shuyi didn't think that the other party was still thinking about Gu Yan. After all, Zheng Jingcheng was the male lead, and his family was well-off. They were already married, so Xu Wanqing didn't need to.
But the other person is really annoying.
It would be a miracle if Gu Yan knew what that meant.
He didn't dare to hide anything and told Zhao Shuyi everything Xu Wanqing had said to him that night. He had a good memory and remembered almost everything.
Zhao Shuyi's face grew darker and darker as she listened. It sounded like the other party really did have feelings for Gu Yan.
She glared at Gu Yan again.
Flirting with other women!
Gu Yan was helpless. He took her home and comforted her for a long time before he calmed her down, but he felt increasingly disgusted with Xu Wanqing.
As the clouds cleared and the rain subsided in the evening, Gu Yan and Zhao Shuyi began discussing Xu Wanqing's matter.
"Wife, what do you want to do with her?"
We definitely can't let Xu Wanqing cause any more trouble. Originally, as long as she could live a good life in the family compound, once the two of them were transferred to Chuncheng, they would no longer have much contact and could live their own lives.
But Xu Wanqing didn't seem to think that way; she had a lot of ulterior motives.
Even if they go to Chuncheng, the other party might not let them off easily. Rather than passively waiting for Xu Wanqing to cause trouble, it's better to take the initiative.
Zhao Shuyi looked at Gu Yan and said, "I think there's something fishy about her marriage to Zheng Jingcheng. Could you investigate this?"
The Zheng family is a respectable family. When they want to find a wife, wouldn't they consider the woman's character and family background?
Besides her face, what does Xu Wanqing have left? She has lost the family and good reputation that people care about most these days. She is even a second-time bride who has been married to some of the people in the committee.
Why would Zheng Jingcheng marry her?
Is this the preordained destiny of the male and female protagonists?
But it didn't take long for Zhao Shuyi to learn what had happened the next day.
Gu Yan had already sent people to help investigate.
After seeing what happened, they both had the same thought.
This must be a trap set by Xu Wanqing.
Secretary Zheng probably sent Zheng Jingcheng to Yunnan Province because he was worried that Xu Wanqing would cause trouble in Beijing and bring trouble to the Zheng family.
Zhao Shuyi really didn't know what to say. In this way, it would be really difficult for them to deal with Xu Wanqing from this angle.
If we were to do that, we would probably offend the Zheng family.
I'm not afraid, but there's no need to.
In the afternoon, Gu Yan went to work, and Zhao Shuyi's group of girlfriends came to chat with her again.
Zhao Shuyi naturally steered the conversation toward Xu Wanqing, and then heard about some things Xu Wanqing did in the family compound. She heard that Xu Wanqing was generous and polite to people, and had a pretty good reputation. She was even helpful to others, helping children and the elderly.
The elderly people, in particular, had a very good impression of her.
Zhao Shuyi almost rolled her eyes when she heard the praise for Xu Wanqing.
"By the way, I heard from Lao Wang the other day that she seemed to want to go to the clinic to help process medicinal herbs. She said she had studied it before, but Lao Wang didn't want to teach new people, so he refused her."
Everyone is quite curious about this.
Zhao Shuyi was also a little surprised. Why did she feel that the other party was doing it because of her?
"Is she working so hard because she wants to get a job?" someone said.
Everyone looked at Huang Ying.
Huang Ying waved her hand, "She didn't come to me to tell me, so I don't know. Anyway, we don't have any work for her here. The clinic can hire another nurse, but it depends on what Dr. Wang says."
In the past, Dr. Wang could complete his work without any help, so it's unreasonable for him to suddenly be assigned a task for someone else.
Everyone chimed in with their own comments, and the matter was quickly brought up. However, Zhao Shuyi felt increasingly uneasy. She thought that Xu Wanqing might really want to study medicine and then go to the military hospital to oppose her.
She's really bored.
At that time, Xu Wanqing had just returned from Chuncheng and arrived at the family compound.
She only found out yesterday from asking the nurses that Zhao Shuyi and the others had returned yesterday.
She heard that when Zhao Shuyi came back, everyone would go to chat with her.
If I were there, I could definitely sneak in and go along, and maybe even find out some information.
Now that the other person is back, I'm not there, and I've missed this great opportunity.
Xu Wanqing was very upset.
However, she wasn't angry, after all, she now had leverage over Zhao Shuyi, and she didn't take Zhao Shuyi seriously at all.
However, after entering the family compound, she still wandered around and, sure enough, heard that several of Zhao Shuyi's aunts and sisters-in-law who were close to her had gone to Zhao Shuyi's house.
Xu Wanqing really didn't understand why Zhao Shuyi, with her arrogant personality, had anything to talk about.
But then she realized that the Zhao Shuyi of today was not the Zhao Shuyi she used to know. The other person had a different soul, and might have become more talkative.
I really should go and meet them when I have the time.
Xu Wanqing wasn't in a hurry. Instead, she went home to tidy up first, and then went to Zhao Shuyi's house around lunchtime.
Sure enough, the sound of people chatting had disappeared from her house.
This time, Xu Wanqing remained calm. She knocked on the door and waited for Zhao Shuyi to open it.
Before anyone even opened the door, she could already smell the rich aroma of food wafting from inside, and she couldn't help but swallow.
Who is cooking?
Xu Wanqing remembered that both Zhao's mother and Zhao Shuyi were good cooks, but Zhao Shuyi, that pampered young lady, didn't like to cook.
Hmph, now she has another weakness to exploit.
Zhao Shuyi faintly heard a knocking sound, but when she listened carefully, the sound disappeared.
She was cooking when she heard another knock on the door.
Zhao Shuyi quickly checked the fire, then hurriedly ran out, opened the courtyard gate, and saw Xu Wanqing. This time, she rolled her eyes thoroughly.
"Is there something you need? I'm cooking, why are you dropping by during mealtime?"
Before Xu Wanqing could speak, she was choked up. She glared at Zhao Shuyi and said, "I'm not here to freeload."
"Isn't this perfect? What brings you here? Tell me."
Xu Wanqing crossed her arms and looked at her, thinking that the other person resembled Zhao Shuyi, yet was also somewhat different from Zhao Shuyi.
Zhao Shuyi is usually just as arrogant, but her arrogance comes from deep within her and isn't so obvious.
She felt that this person was definitely not Zhao Shuyi.
"Is there something you need? If not, I'm closing up shop."
"Hey." Xu Wanqing pushed open the door, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Aren't you going to invite me in for a bit?"
Zhao Shuyi felt that she might have some problems.
"I don't really want to invite you in; we're about to have dinner at home."
Don't you have any idea whether you're well-liked or not?
Xu Wanqing didn't expect her to have this attitude, and even the look in her eyes changed when she looked at her.
Do you really want me to talk to you here?
Hearing that this implied he might say something he shouldn't, Zhao Shuyi laughed.
"What, is there something you know you can't tell outsiders?"
Seeing her confidence, Xu Wanqing felt a little uneasy, but she did not give up her idea. After all, if she had such a secret, she did not think that others could guess it.
"You're not Zhao Shuyi, are you?"
As she said this, she stared intently into Zhao Shuyi's eyes. If Zhao Shuyi's eyes flickered even slightly, she would know whether Zhao Shuyi was the same person or not.
Zhao Shuyi didn't react at all, but just looked her up and down and said, "Am I deaf or are you out of your mind? If I'm not Zhao Shuyi, who is? Are you?"
Xu Wanqing never expected that she would deny it so firmly. Could it be that she guessed wrong?
She didn't believe it.
Zhao Shuyi clearly doesn't know any medical skills.
"Don't deny it, I know you're not Zhao Shuyi. Where did you hide Zhao Shuyi? Tell her to come back!"
"Are you crazy?" Zhao Shuyi said and tried to close the door, but the other person clung to it tightly and wouldn't let go, looking like they were determined to fight to the death.
"What are you afraid to admit? You dare to do it but you're afraid to admit it?"
"Zhao Shuyi doesn't know any medical skills at all. How do you know medical skills and do so well in the military hospital, always getting first place in the assessments? You're not her at all. Admit it! Even if I don't have this evidence, I have other evidence!"
"Are you crazy? Do I need to report to you whether I have medical skills or not?"
Zhao Shuyi glanced at her with a half-smile.
"However, thank you for the compliment."
Fortunately, Zhao Shuyi had anticipated her tricks, so she wasn't entirely unprepared.
If Xu Wanqing had rushed up to question her earlier, Zhao Shuyi really couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't have given herself away.
Xu Wanqing had already dragged things out for so long that Zhao Shuyi had enough time to come up with a response and some coping strategies.
"How could someone who knows absolutely no medical skills learn medical skills so quickly, including acupuncture, massage, prescribing medicine, and even suturing? Who are you trying to fool?"
Zhao Shuyi remained completely calm and said, "Just because you don't have any talent for medicine, does that mean everyone in the world should be mediocre and incompetent?"
Xu Wanqing was so angry at her words that she almost had a heart attack. She meant that her achievements were due to her high talent, which Xu Wanqing did not believe.
"I don't believe you. Stop pretending. You simply can't have that ability!"
Zhao Shuyi crossed her arms and looked at her coldly, saying, "I'm really curious. If there's any conflict between us, there really isn't. Why do you always pick on me? It was the same with Gao Zhiyun back then. Even though you were in a mess with him, you still insisted that I be with him."
Why do you always have to cause trouble for no reason?
"Are you really that bored?"
Xu Wanqing didn't know why Zhao Shuyi suddenly brought up this matter, but it was all in the past, and she certainly couldn't admit it.
"What do you mean by 'unclear'? I didn't have an unclear relationship with him. You were the one who agreed to date him, but then you turned around and married the officer. You were the one who was fickle."
"You're talking nonsense about this. Do you think no one saw it? Why do you think Gao Zhiyun would be willing to give me the pen he was going to give you?"
Xu Wanqing's pupils contracted.
How did she know that the pen was originally meant for her? Besides what Gao Zhiyun told her, was there any other reason?
Why did Gao Zhiyun tell her?
Xu Wanqing suddenly thought of Gao Zhiyun's feelings for her during that time. Could it be that he wanted to be with her too much and revealed the matter to Zhao Shuyi?
During their argument, he let slip that he wanted to use a pen to shut Zhao Shuyi up.
That's why Zhao Shuyi got angry and retaliated against them.
That must be it!
Xu Wanqing suppressed her panic, unwilling to lose face in front of Zhao Shuyi, "It's all because you're stupid and we've fooled you."
As she spoke, a somewhat eerie smile appeared on her face.
"Do you remember that pink dress with lace trim you gave me before? Let me tell you, that dress you gave me was absolutely hideous!"
"I've hated you ever since that dress. You always act so superior, looking at people with that condescending expression!"
Who wants to be your friend?
Zhao Shuyi looked at her without changing her expression.
“I think you’ve really lost your mind. I’ve never given you a pink dress with lace trim. The first dress I gave you was a blue plaid dress. At that time, you said it was the first time you’d worn such a pretty dress, and that I treated you better than your mother.”
"Now that I think about it, your praise was utterly hypocritical."
"They want it all, and then pretend to be virtuous after taking the benefits!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Wanqing almost lost her composure.
How would Zhao Shuyi know this? It was something that happened when they were in elementary school. If Zhao Shuyi even knows this, then she is still the same Zhao Shuyi!
But if she is still the same Zhao Shuyi, how could she have changed so much?
How could you know so much?
"You're back too, aren't you?"
"You've come back just like me, haven't you?"
Xu Wanqing was almost obsessed; this was the only guess she could come up with.
"You're back."
Hearing Zhao Shuyi's words, Xu Wanqing truly believed that she had guessed the truth, and a smile appeared on her face. However, Zhao Shuyi simply bypassed her and ran behind her.
Xu Wanqing turned around and saw Gu Yan tidying up Zhao Shuyi's slightly messy sideburns.
He asked gently, "What are you talking about?"
Zhao Shuyi shook her head and said, "It's nothing, just some trivial talk. Dinner is almost ready, go wash your hands and get ready to eat."
The two entered the courtyard together, completely ignoring Xu Wanqing at the gate.
After they walked out for a while, Xu Wanqing could still hear Zhao Shuyi's somewhat affectionate and coquettish voice, which sounded really grating.
But she stood alone at someone's door, and no one paid any attention to her. It was embarrassing, so she could only leave in a daze.
Inside the kitchen, Gu Yan was glared at by Zhao Shuyi again.
"Have you left yet?"
Gu Yan hurriedly ran out to take a look.
"They're gone."
Then he was glared at by Zhao Shuyi again. Gu Yan said innocently, "She didn't come to see me."
"You still won't admit your mistake?" Zhao Shuyi kicked him.
"Stop fooling around. What will she say to you if the food spills?"
Gu Yan felt that Xu Wanqing was indeed quite annoying, but he didn't know what she was trying to do.
It seems the two of them had a rather unpleasant conversation.
Gu Yan was also somewhat relieved, at least Zhao Shuyi didn't get into a fight.
But if the other party continues to harass them like this from time to time, it is indeed quite unpleasant.
"Should I go and tell Company Commander Zheng?"
They generally prefer to talk to men to solve problems, especially since he is not good at dealing with girls and is not very willing to do so, and is also worried that Zhao Shuyi will overthink things.
“What can you say to him? I think if he were really capable, he wouldn’t have been manipulated by Xu Wanqing.”
Gu Yan thought about it and agreed. Instead of pinning their hopes on others, they should find their own solutions.
"If all else fails, we'll expose what she did in Beijing. I believe that once everyone knows what she did, she won't have the face to continue making trouble. That should be enough to make her suffer."
When she's busy with her own things, she probably won't have time to bother others.
Zhao Shuyi, however, did not quite agree with his idea. The reason why the female lead is the female lead is that she must be tenacious.
It's just that the female lead's purpose has now involved herself, which makes people somewhat disgusted.
Unless you can pin her down and kill her in one go.
But the things the other party did weren't quite to that extent.
"If all else fails, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. If she really dares to do something, then we'll be able to catch her red-handed right away."
Gu Yan frowned. "But what if she does something we can't predict?"
He felt that Xu Wanqing was very strange. She was like some of the extreme people he had encountered during his missions. If she did something that they couldn't handle, they wouldn't have time to regret it.
"I'm not afraid."
At least Zhao Shuyi could guarantee that her life would not be affected, so she wasn't really that scared.
But Gu Yan was afraid; she was afraid that the other party would hurt her.
"In short, I'll still have someone help investigate. You must be careful in the hospital and try not to do anything alone. I'll tell Uncle Ying and make sure she doesn't bother you at the hospital."
Gu Yan didn't want to publicize anything else for the time being, but he could tell everyone about Xu Wanqing's mother's situation, at least to prevent Xu Wanqing from actually having the opportunity to enter the military hospital.
Given Zheng Jingcheng's connections, getting someone into the hospital should be very easy.
If Zheng Jingcheng really has something on her, then she might actually be able to get in.
Gu Yan didn't want such a thing to happen. Even if the other party couldn't do anything to Shu Yi, it would still be annoying if she appeared in front of Shu Yi all day long.
"I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely be careful."
After hearing Zhao Shuyi say this, Gu Yan looked at her, and Zhao Shuyi casually said, "You too."
Gu Yan moved his lips, but ultimately didn't ask any more questions.
He had grown accustomed to Zhao Shuyi's instructions.
Zhao Shuyi seemed to anticipate that he would encounter some danger outside, which made Gu Yan more cautious about the upcoming mission. If he could go, he hoped that he could participate in it.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Zhao Shuyi, but if he didn't do it himself, someone else would.
Since he knew there were risks, he shouldn't have run away from them.
So the next day, Zhao Shuyi heard Gu Yan say that he would be very busy recently and that Zhao Shuyi should take good care of herself at the military hospital.
"Going out on another mission?"
