Chapter 399 I'll Accept You as My Sister



Around 2 PM, Zhang Qi arrived, and He Wan had already escorted Zhou Ting'an to the bedroom.

After the IV drip was started, He Wan looked at the sleeping Zhou Ting'an and asked Zhang Qi, "Dr. Zhang, given his current condition, can the stitches be removed tomorrow?"

Zhang Qi examined his wound and said, "Tomorrow won't work. His wound will need at least five days."

He Wan gave an "oh," wondering to herself whether she should contact Zhou Ting'an's companions during these five days.

Hanging the needle is fine with them, but the thread needs to be removed immediately.

After Zhang Qi left, He Wan was afraid that Zhou Ting'an would wake up, so she took him with her.

Yun Shudai quickly washed a plate of cherries for her so she could eat them when she had time. He Wan, holding the plate, said, "I'm carefully checking the house now, afraid that something out of place from our era might arouse Zhou Ting'an's suspicion. I can only eat these cherries in the space."

After He Wan left, Bai Muyin gave her some instructions and then hurriedly went about his own business.

On He Wan's side, Zhou Ting'an was awake for about the same amount of time as yesterday.

Looking at the IV drip above her head, she laughed and said, "Why do you always give me injections when I'm asleep?"

He Wan blinked and said, "My acupuncture skills are so-so. The reason you don't feel the pain when I prick you while you're asleep is because I'm not acupuncturist."

Zhou Ting'an thought it made sense and didn't doubt it. Watching He Wan busy herself around her, he suddenly felt that the world had never treated him badly.

Looking at the well-behaved cat at her feet and then at the snow-covered landscape outside, she suddenly had an idea, but felt it was too rash. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally said, "Comrade He, I am also an orphan, and you are also an orphan. If you don't mind my family situation, let's be like brother and sister."

He Wan paused as she poured him water, glancing at Zhou Ting'an. This suggestion was clearly beyond her comprehension: "Brother and sister?"

She has always been a person with weak family ties in both her past and present lives. Perhaps she has become so used to being alone that she has never thought about what it would be like to have another family member by her side.

Zhou Ting'an realized he had been a bit abrupt, so he quickly said, "This is just a suggestion. If you feel it's inappropriate, don't worry about it." As he spoke, he reached into his pocket and took out a pen, handing it to her and saying, "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. This pen is a trophy I won. It's for you."

He Wan took the pen and twirled it in her hand, then glanced at Zhou Ting'an. Hmm, I wonder what it's like to have a handsome soldier brother by your side.

"How old are you this year?"

He Wan's words startled Zhou Ting'an, who was initially annoyed. He then looked at her and said, "I'm twenty-one. I'm from Haicheng. I joined the army at eighteen. There's no one left in my family."

He Wan hurriedly said, "I'm sixteen this year, and my family is from Kyoto. There's not much family in my family. Comrade Zhou, do you really want to be my brother? If you become my brother, you have to protect me, love me, and take care of me. Unless it's a matter of principle, you'll have to take responsibility for your sister for the rest of your life."

Upon hearing her words, Zhou Ting'an's eyes instantly turned serious, and he saluted He Wan while lying down: "Comrade He, I sincerely want to acknowledge you as my sister."

"Okay, I really want an older brother too."

The two people's reunion was completed amidst laughter.

He Wan felt there should be a sense of ceremony for the family reunion, so she cooked two dishes that evening.

I had a potato dish with scallions, a stir-fried eggplant dish, and steamed rice.

I can't make juice, but I have winter pears and two apples.
