Chapter 83 Xie Shuangshuang exploded
He Mingzhou frowned.
He found Xie Shuangshuang particularly inexplicable.
He said that if he didn't use those drugs, they didn't work, so what was the point of her being so unreasonable?
"Miss Xie, please don't worry. I might know a little about the reason behind this."
A soldier quickly stepped forward, first glancing at He Mingzhou's expression before turning to Xie Shuangshuang and saying, "Miss Xie, the medicine you sent back then never reached the deputy division commander. It's likely that someone didn't know it was specially sent to the deputy division commander and took it directly to the infirmary. The doctor there found the medicine to be quite effective and gave it to everyone."
"The deputy division commander did use the medicine you sent, but he really didn't know who prepared those medicines. He always thought they came from the infirmary."
These words made Xie Shuangshuang's expression much better.
"So that's how it is..."
A blush crept onto her face: "It's my fault too. I was a little embarrassed at the time, and I was afraid that people would gossip about you, so I would just leave the medicine and go. I thought you would know."
He Mingzhou was completely baffled.
"Since Miss Xie has such good medicine, she can just send it to the infirmary, which would benefit everyone. Why does she insist on saying it's a gift for me? What do I need to know?"
He Mingzhou then took out his wallet and said, "How much is that medicine? I'll give it back to Miss Xie."
Xie Shuangshuang's eyes welled up with tears after hearing He Mingzhou's words.
"Congratulations, Mingzhou!"
She screamed, stopping He Mingzhou from taking the money, and said with a face full of grievance and resentment, "Don't you really understand what I mean?"
Are you playing dumb with me?
Xie Shuangshuang, as a girl, was able to act so boldly because she knew she had a powerful background.
She believed that the person she liked would never reject her.
Even He Mingzhou was the same.
But she didn't expect that He Mingzhou hadn't shown her any difference back then, and he wasn't even surprised by her special trip to come after him.
This was unacceptable to Xie Shuangshuang.
She didn't believe that anyone in the world could resist her advances.
He Mingzhou must be afraid that others will say he wants to live off a woman, which is why he deliberately keeps his distance from me.
Yes, that's right, that must be it!
"You all go out first."
Xie Shuangshuang decisively spoke up, trying to drive everyone else away.
Everyone turned to look at He Mingzhou.
He Mingzhou's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly.
"Miss Xie, what exactly do you want?"
“You’re in charge of transporting supplies this time, so I hope you can focus your attention on this matter. Now that you’ve arrived ahead of schedule, shouldn’t we start preparing for the return trip immediately? After all, the sooner we get back to the island to distribute supplies, the less likely everyone will go hungry.”
The others echoed He Mingzhou's words, "Yes, yes."
"I'll go and get a boat ready now; it'll take us several days to get back."
"Now we can take inventory of the supplies, and once we've confirmed everything is in order, we can load them onto the ship and prepare to depart."
Xie Shuangshuang listened to everyone talking about supplies, and no one had asked her anything. Xie Shuangshuang's face turned red with anger.
"We've worked so hard to deliver supplies to you, and you won't even give us a break?"
"Is this how you treat your guests?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's face turned pale.
"Miss Xie, that's not what we meant..."
"Yes, Miss Xie, we just want to finish the mission as soon as possible..."
Xie Shuangshuang snorted coldly, and was about to speak when she heard He Mingzhou say, "Then please get some rest, Miss Xie. We'll discuss the transportation of supplies back to the island tomorrow morning."
"Everyone, please leave. Let Miss Xie get some rest."
After saying this, He Mingzhou left without giving Xie Shuangshuang a chance to speak, leading the others out in single file.
"Why--"
After Xie Shuangshuang realized what was happening, she wanted to chase after them, but there were so many people that she couldn't just shout loudly, as that would be too rude.
"Why is He Mingzhou so cold to me? Does he really have no recollection of me at all?"
Xie Shuangshuang returned to her room with a wronged expression.
Xiaoling, her good friend who came with her, said, "How could that be? You are Xie Shuangshuang. Everyone knows how noble your status is. He Mingzhou should be happy to have your favor."
Xie Shuangshuang said dejectedly, "But he actually tried to give me money just now. He doesn't want to accept anything from me at all."
"Men, of course they all care about their image, and with so many people around just now, he must have been worried about what others would say."
"How about we go find He Mingzhou and have a proper talk after everyone has rested?"
Xie Shuangshuang really wanted to have a good talk with He Mingzhou. Holding Xiaoling's hand, she said with a look of relief, "It's a good thing I brought you along, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do."
Xiaoling rolled her eyes, smiled, and said, "Shuangshuang, you're too kind. We're best friends."
Xie Shuangshuang laughed along, "Yeah! Don't worry, when we get back I'll tell my dad to arrange a good job for your brother."
Xiaoling's smile deepened: "Actually, Shuangshuang, you don't need to be like this. My brother isn't very capable either; he's really not good enough for the job Uncle arranged for him."
Xie Shuangshuang said confidently, "I said he's a good match, and that's it. Don't worry, my dad has a lot of power. He'll definitely arrange an easy and lucrative job for your brother."
Xiaoling wiped away non-existent tears: "The luckiest thing in my life is meeting such a good friend as you."
"Shuangshuang, you're so good to me."
Xie Shuangshuang waved her hand: "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Have someone keep an eye on things. If He Mingzhou gets lost, we'll go find him directly."
"Okay, I'll go arrange it right away."
Xie Shuangshuang sat on the bed, thinking that He Mingzhou had become more composed and handsome, and more attractive than before. She couldn't help but look forward to the days when the two of them would be together.
Being loved by a man like He Mingzhou must be incredibly blissful, right?
Xie Shuangshuang's husband should be a true hero like He Mingzhou!
She looked down on all those cats and dogs!
He Mingzhou will definitely be hers too, because no one else is worthy of He Mingzhou except her!
Xie Shuangshuang thought this through and waited patiently.
Xiaoling returned shortly afterward and told her that everyone else had gone off to do other things, and He Mingzhou had gone back to his room alone.
"This is the perfect opportunity!"
Xie Shuangshuang jumped to her feet: "I'm coming over now."
Xiaoling quickly followed, saying, "I'll keep an eye on them for you."
The two of them ran to He Mingzhou's door, only to find He Mingzhou leading a very beautiful girl out of the room.
He even straightened the girl's clothes, and the two seemed quite intimate.
Xie Shuangshuang immediately exploded.
Who is that woman?
