Chapter 92: Fainted from fright
Pang Bo carried the unconscious Ning Xin and strode in.
Because they were facing away from each other, Ning Tang and Dean Gou didn't recognize who it was at first. They thought someone had been injured during training, so they quickly surrounded them.
"What happened? It's only been a few hours, and someone's already injured?"
"Quickly put him on the small bed, Dr. Ning and I will take a look at him," Dean Gou said urgently, putting on his reading glasses.
Pang Bo shook his head, looking disgusted: "What injury? We met this person when we were ambushing the Red Team at the foot of the mountain. We originally wanted to ask her if she was lost, but we scared her into fainting."
"What's even more speechless is that you would never guess who this person is."
Dean Gou looked bewildered: "The people down the mountain?"
"no."
Seeing a somewhat familiar figure on Pang Bo's shoulder, Ning Tang's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be Ning Xin...?
Ning Tang initially thought it was too much of a coincidence, but after Pang Bo put the person down and revealed that face that was so familiar it couldn't be more so, she was certain.
It means peace of mind.
Not to mention her, Dean Gou went over to take a look and was also quite frightened. As if afraid of seeing things wrong, he even took off his reading glasses and wiped them.
"Isn't this your nominal older sister? What's she doing up in the mountains? Did you two make a promise?"
But then I thought about it again, and given that everyone knows these two are at odds, how could they possibly meet in private?
Pang Bo stood with his hands on his hips, his face still showing lingering annoyance: "Who knows what happened? Anyway, Captain Xu told me to bring the person over to my sister-in-law."
"We're still busy with our mission over there and can't leave. Anyway, I've delivered the person, so we'll be going now, sister-in-law."
After Pang Bo finished speaking, he turned around and led his brothers back. Before leaving, he saw a roasted sweet potato placed at the entrance of the tent and put it in his pocket without thinking.
hey-hey.
They would be lying in wait in the deep mountains and forests for several days; this stuff was much more palatable than dry, compressed biscuits.
Ning Tang didn't see Pang Bo take her dinner away; she was currently observing Ning Xin.
She just did a quick check; the pulse was normal, but the heartbeat was very fast. He must have been frightened unconscious by Pang Bo, who suddenly appeared in the middle of the night with a green face.
suddenly.
Ningxin hummed softly, her eyelashes fluttering, as if she were about to wake up.
After a long while, when Ning Xin opened her eyes and saw Ning Tang, her face turned pale at a visible speed, and she struggled to run away.
I ran around in a panic for a long time, and my legs were as weak as noodles. I knelt down the moment I landed.
"What are you doing here?" Ning Tang blocked her way, her eyes chillingly cold.
She knew Ning Xin's personality all too well. The moment she opened her eyes, she looked like she'd seen a ghost; she was definitely up to no good again.
Ning Xin stiffened her neck, her eyes darting around, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
I was so annoyed.
I was trying to hide from that little bitch, but in the end she still found out.
If she found out that she and Brother Yanfei were planning to sabotage the training ground, Ning Tang would definitely turn around and tell Xu Qiaofeng.
Xu Qiaofeng knew that Yan Fei would never stand out in this training match and slap him in the face.
Ning Xin lay on the ground, stubbornly refusing to utter a sound despite being stared at by the two people in front of her. Her eyes kept drifting towards the tent entrance, clearly pondering how to escape later.
Seeing her guilty look, Ning Tang impatiently lifted her up from the ground: "What kind of conspiracy do you and Zhang Yanfei have?"
"Don't assume everyone else is malicious just because you're malicious yourself!"
"I came here to cheer Yanfei up because I was worried he might be tired from training on the mountain. What, you mean by 'scheme'? Ning Tang, are you out of your mind?!" Ning Xin retorted, her eyes wide. "Besides, if you can come, why can't I? What, we're both military family members, are you discriminating against me?"
Ning Tang was so angry she almost laughed.
Which military family member would run to a military training area in the middle of the night?
Moreover, Xu Qiaofeng had previously told her that this training was a secret and that they were not allowed to tell anyone, including their families.
If she takes Ning Xin to report Zhang Yanfei, she'll definitely get it right every time.
"Alright, alright, Dr. Ning, since she's fine, let's just drop it," Dean Gou suddenly said from the side.
Ning Xin's words just now almost scared him to death.
If she goes out and talks nonsense, she'll be labeled as discriminating against military families. Ning Tang will be fine, but he will be in trouble.
As soon as Dean Gou said this, Ning Tang frowned.
She could tell that the dean was afraid of trouble.
But Ningxin was clearly not telling the truth. If we let her go, who knows what kind of trouble she would cause.
"I understand, Dean." Ning Tang nodded, grabbing Ning Xin's arm. "I'll take her away now, and I'll keep an eye on her until the medical mission is over."
"Are you out of your mind, Ning Tang? Do I even know you? Are we even close? What gives you the right to tell me what to do?"
"I still need to find Brother Yanfei, so let me go right now!"
Ning Xin struggled and screamed, her shrill voice attracting people from the other tents around her to come out and see what was going on.
The dean was so frightened that he quickly went over to explain.
For some reason, Ning Xin suddenly felt like she couldn't muster any strength, and the more she shouted, the more uncomfortable she felt.
She turned to look at Ning Tang beside her and said viciously, "Damn little slut, did you use some tricks on me?"
"Seeing that you're exhausted from shouting, is it considered a kind of 'treatment' to pinch your acupoints?"
Ning Tang smiled slightly, but her grip tightened.
If someone from the same Traditional Chinese Medicine department were standing here, they would definitely notice that the acupoint she placed her hand on was the Neiguan acupoint.
This acupoint can quickly calm and soothe the nerves.
But its greater use is to control the flow of qi and blood by pressing, so that the people under its control no longer have the strength to shout and make a fuss.
Almost instantly, Ning Xin felt a tingling numbness in the inside of her arm, and the strength to shout at the top of her lungs disappeared.
Unable to even stand steadily, he could only glare fiercely at Ning Tang.
"you!"
"You actually used something your mother taught you to ambush me?"
"Ambush?" Ning Tang didn't loosen her grip, but smiled sincerely at Ning Xin who was about to fall. "I was just worried that you would disturb the other comrades' rest, and there are traps and ambushes everywhere around this training ground."
“If you go out and run around again, and you faint next time, there’s no guarantee that someone will be able to bring you back in time. When you open your eyes, you might find yourself facing a wild beast or something else. Nobody can guarantee that.”
After saying that, Ning Tang pulled Ning Xin and walked outside.
I had almost no strength left in my body, and my feet felt like they were stepping on cotton.
Upon hearing that word, Ningxin felt both angry and afraid.
She knew Ning Tang was a skilled doctor, but she never expected her to be so ruthless; she didn't even have the strength to resist.
Seeing that the place she had agreed to meet with Zhang Yanfei was getting further and further away, Ning Xin was so anxious that her face turned red. She wished she could rush over and bite Ning Tang, who was right in front of her.
"Ning Tang, you just wait!"
"If Brother Yanfei knew how you treated me, he would definitely not let you off the hook!"
Ning Tang completely ignored her threats, dragged her into her temporary dormitory tent, grabbed a rope, and tied her to the bed frame.
It wasn't too tight, but it was enough to prevent Ning Xin from breaking free and running around.
I spent the whole morning on a bumpy car ride, and then the afternoon organizing medicines.
Ning Tang was exhausted and picked up her washbasin to go out for a quick wash.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Ning Xin hurriedly called out to her from behind.
"etc!"
"You're just leaving like this? Leaving me here all alone?"
Ning Tang raised an eyebrow: "Otherwise what? Should I put it in your pocket and take it everywhere you go?"
"Ning Tang! Don't change the subject." Ning Xin couldn't take it anymore. She had just run around outside and was covered in sweat, not to mention the mosquito bites. The sweat was sticking to her clothes and making her skin hurt and itch. She couldn't stand the torment anymore.
Ning said confidently, "When you come back, bring me a basin of hot water and goat milk soap, personally serve me a bath, and also get me a new set of clothes to change into."
"...?"
Ning Tang ignored her completely, turned around, grabbed the washbasin, and left.
Ning Xin's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe that she dared to leave like that. In her past life, she could easily make Ning Tang kneel down and beg for mercy with just a few words.
When she was little, I even knelt on the ground to wash her feet just to get a bite to eat.
Now that she's married to Xu Qiaofeng, she's really gotten too big for her britches and dares to ignore her words!
"Ning Tang! Come back here!" Ning Xin shouted at the top of her lungs, but after only two shouts, she remembered the soreness from the pressure points being pinched and quickly shut her mouth.
Forget it, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle.
She would never give Ning Tang another chance to come back and hurt her.
After an unknown amount of time, the tent flap was lifted again.
Ning Tang returned carrying a basin and a metal lunchbox. Although it wasn't as good as the food in the hospital cafeteria, it was already quite good to have a hot meal in this remote mountain forest.
Ningxin's eyes lit up, especially when she saw the new clothes that she had been carrying in her left hand.
Heh, she said that Ning Tang, that little bitch, doesn't have that much backbone.
He was just putting on a brave face; he was afraid that she would go back and complain to Brother Yanfei, and then he would take his anger out on her.
Ning Xin tilted her head back, her eyes full of disdain: "This food is so bad that even a dog wouldn't eat it. I don't care. Go outside and ask around to see who brought biscuits. You can exchange your money with them."
Ning Tang placed the metal lunchbox on the table, and the steam from the food, along with its aroma, wafted out, making one's mouth water.
She didn't even glance at Ning Xin, found a stool to sit down, and lifted the lid.
A spoonful of stir-fried greens, two pieces of stewed potatoes, and a small half piece of braised pork.
Ke Ningxin glanced at it and turned her head away in disgust: "This kind of simple food is not worthy of me eating? I have fish, shrimp and meat with every meal at home. Go and find me something else!"
Are you daydreaming?
Ning Tang picked up the only piece of meat in the pot, and the aroma of the meat instantly filled the room. She slowly took a bite before looking up at Ning Xin.
"Whether you eat or not is none of my business. I'm just hungry. I'll eat, change my clothes, and go to sleep."
The moment the words fell.
Ning Tang acted as if Ning Xin had completely disappeared from the room, eating heartily, the sound of her chewing particularly noticeable in the quiet tent.
Ning Xin's stomach had been growling with hunger for a long time. She swallowed hard as she smelled the aroma of the food, but she still snorted coldly with a look of disgust on her face.
She said, "Tch, as if nobody cares about your lousy food."
"Even if I starve to death here, I will never eat this kind of shabby food."
Ning Tang ignored her and focused on eating.
After finishing the last bite of rice, he even cleaned up all the soup in the lunchbox.
She packed up the empty lunchbox and got up to leave.
Ning Xin was surprised that she had actually finished everything, leaving nothing for herself. Her face flushed with anxiety, and she couldn't help but shout:
"Stop right there! I'm thirsty, get me a glass of water right now!"
"Pour it yourself." Ning Tang pointed to the water bottle in the corner of the tent. "There's water in the bottle, but no cup. Use the enamel basin I used to wash my hands to drink from it."
"You, you, you!"
"You vicious slut! No one in the whole world is as vicious as you!" Ning Xin was utterly devastated.
She couldn't believe that Ning Tang would dare to insult her like that.
That enamel basin was filthy. She saw Ning Tang trying to suppress her disgust when she washed her hands, and she was ashamed that Ning Tang dared to let her use it!
Ning Tang couldn't help but roll her eyes.
How stupid is this person to not understand what is being said?
Without a cup, drinking straight from the mouth would spill everywhere, and asking her to use a ceramic basin to catch it would be an insult.
Ning Tang didn't explain, turned around and left, leaving Ning Xin alone in the tent, stomping her feet in anger.
Ning Xin stared at the enamel basin, then looked at the kettle beside her, her throat so dry it felt like it was about to burst into flames.
But the thought of that troll being so filthy made her feel nauseous.
After finally getting past her mental barrier, Ning Xin suddenly remembered that Ning Tang had tied her hands with a rope and she couldn't move at all!
In her past life, Ning Tang would never have dared to treat her like this.
Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, she could get them the next day just by begging her mother.
But now, Ning Tang not only humiliated her in front of everyone, but also made her squat here unable to move, just like a prisoner.
When has she ever suffered such injustice?
Just as Ning Xin was about to burst into tears, footsteps suddenly came from outside the tent.
She looked up abruptly, thinking it was Ning Tang returning, but instead, a strange man entered. He was very tall, and his face was completely painted green.
Ning Xin was so frightened she almost screamed.
When the man saw that she was about to scream, he quickly came over and covered her mouth with his hand.
Annoyance flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his voice, saying, "Don't call out, it's me."
Hearing the familiar voice, Ning Xin's eyes lit up: "Brother Yanfei, is that you!"
Zhang Yanfei released her grip, glanced warily at the tent entrance, and lowered her voice: "Keep your voice down! I went through so much trouble to get around the sentries, how did you end up tied up here by Ning Tang?"
The moment Ning Xin saw him, her grievances welled up instantly, and her eyes reddened: "Brother Yanfei, Ning Tang bullied me! Not only did she not give me food, but she also made me drink water from a dirty basin and tied me up like a prisoner!"
As she spoke, she even pouted and acted coquettishly.
Zhang Yanfei almost vomited, but when he thought that he was able to regain his position thanks to Ning Xin, he could only suppress his disgust and reach out to hug her.
He deliberately softened his voice: "Okay, don't be angry."
"Poor little thing, you've suffered so much."
Ning Xin, with tears in her eyes, said, "Brother Yanfei, please let me go."
