Chapter 5: The wounded man



Suddenly, Jiang Ci heard a faint sobbing sound.

She thought she had misheard, so she turned over, but the suppressed sobs became even clearer.

Jiang Ci opened her eyes, half-stood up and looked over, and saw that the person crying was Zhou Miao.

She leaned closer, frowning as she asked, "Why are you crying?"

Zhou Miao cried so hard she could barely breathe, her voice weak, "Waaah... Mother... it hurts..."

pain?

Jiang Ci immediately grabbed her forearm, but it felt very hot.

Jiang Ci quickly asked, "Where does it hurt?"

Zhou Miao couldn't pinpoint where the pain was, but her crying only intensified.

Jiang Ci touched her head; it was alarmingly hot.

Jiang Ci immediately realized that the person was in pain due to a fever. Without thinking further, Jiang Ci picked up the person and glanced at Zhou Yang, who was sleeping soundly on his back.

She patted Zhou Yang's little butt and said, "My sister has a fever. I will take her to the medical station. You stay at home and sleep well. Don't run around."

The man who saw clearly, known as Big Brother Yu, glanced at Zhou Miao who was crying in Jiang Ci's arms.

"Okay, you go ahead, I'll go and keep an eye on things."

"Thank you, Brother Yu!"

Jiang Ci thanked her profusely, then, without further ado, carried Zhou Miao and rushed to the medical station in the dark.

The doctor and the educated youth at the clinic all lived here. The lights at the clinic were still on. Jiang Ci didn't pay much attention and rushed in, shouting, "Doctor, my daughter has a fever!"

Under the light, the doctor was bandaging a man covered in blood. The man was still awake. Even though his body was covered with wounds, he endured the pain without making a sound while being cleaned.

Hearing the noise, the man raised his eyes and looked towards the door.

Jiang Ci met the man's gaze, paused in her steps, and stopped abruptly.

The man sat up abruptly from the hospital bed.
