This was the first time Ruan Ruan had ever seen Huo Haocheng so hesitant. Seeing that he didn't want to talk, she continued to eat her food in small bites.
After watching Huo Haocheng take the two people from the accident site away, Su Yanqiu and Lin Qingyuan, seeing Deng Yi's distressed expression, gloated, "Someone's doomed..." and then quickly chased after him.
Seeing the group of people suddenly leave, Sun Hongxin was confused. Did Huo Haoshen and Ge Xiaotian have any connection?
"I don't quite understand what's going on. Should I believe it or not?" Sun Hongxin wondered. "Are all the special forces in your Independent Regiment this unstable now? Should I ride in the same car as Huo Haoshen on the way back?"
This was the first time Sun Hongxin had encountered something like this, and now he didn't know whether he should ask Huo Haocheng to have dinner with him.
"Uh, I was just joking. How could two guys be together? Right? Let's go eat first." Faced with Sun Hongxin's questioning look, Deng Yi felt he had really gone too far this time. When he mentioned two guys, his confidence clearly wavered. After all, there was a real couple in their team! So his tone softened, and his subsequent words sounded even weaker.
Forget it, I won't explain anymore. Think whatever you want.
"Whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll still get stabbed," he said, trying to bolster his spirits before heading into the cafeteria.
Sun Hongxin, who really couldn't understand it, glanced at Deng Yi's back, then looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, which was good; it couldn't be that he was possessed by an evil spirit. He could go inside to eat. He followed Deng Yi inside.
Ruan Ruan and Dr. Jiang watched the four people enter one after the other, each with a different expression. They then glanced at Huo Haocheng beside them, and at Huo Haoshen and Ge Xiaotian, who couldn't shut up while eating. Ruan Ruan and Dr. Jiang exchanged a look, both seeing confusion and bewilderment in each other's eyes.
"What happened to you?" Ruan Ruan asked, looking at the group.
They spent the whole day outside treating other people's injuries. They only went into the temporary ward once to change the dressings for the commander, the mayor, and the bureau chief. Despite so many people coming and going, they didn't hear any bad news from anyone.
Judging from their appearance, something seems to have happened. Did they encounter something outside?
"No, it's nothing." Faced with Ruan Ruan's question, Deng Yi looked guilty, while the others looked on with amusement. When Huo Haocheng looked up at them, he had a complicated expression.
Several people, so many expressions, and judging from Deng Yi's behavior, the problem lies with him. Ruan Ruan and Dr. Jiang really couldn't understand what could have caused Deng Yi, who was always steady and knew how to act with discretion, to make others look like this.
"Did you do something to betray Sister Jingyan?"
"Did you meet someone else you like here?"
Ruan Ruan and Dr. Jiang's questions came up together. If it weren't for this, they really couldn't think of anything else Deng Yi might not want them to know.
Moreover, judging from Su Yanqiu and Lin Qingyuan's amused expressions, it means that Deng Yi's problem is related to them, and they are afraid that they will find out. Thinking about it this way, the only person they can think of is Gu Jingyan.
After all, it was they who brought Deng Yi and Gu Jingyan together.
"No, no, how could I possibly like anyone other than Jingyan? Sister-in-law, you can't just say things like that." Dr. Jiang's words startled Deng Yi, who broke out in a cold sweat. He looked around to make sure Gu Jinghe wasn't there before he felt a little relieved.
"What is that?" Since it wasn't related to Jing Yan, they felt that Deng Yi had nothing to be afraid of.
"Let the captain talk to you guys later. Let's eat first." Joking aside, he really couldn't say what he just said in front of Huo Haoshen and Ge Xiaotian.
After quickly finishing their lunch, they told them "I'm full" and hurriedly left.
Standing in the sun, Deng Yi let out a big sigh of relief, fanned his face with his hand, glanced behind him to make sure no one had followed him, and then went back to rest with peace of mind.
"This is inexplicable!" Ruan Ruan and Dr. Jiang both expressed their incomprehension of Deng Yi's behavior. What couldn't a grown man say, and why did he have to ask Huo Haocheng to tell them?
When Huo Haocheng heard Deng Yi call him captain, he chuckled to himself. "Captain when there's trouble, Huo Haocheng when there's nothing else."
Seeing that Huo Haocheng had no intention of saying anything, they knew they wouldn't get to see Deng Yi make a fool of himself today, so they quickly finished their meal and went back to rest.
After everyone left, Huo Haoshen started talking to Ruan Ruan about serious matters. "We've almost finished training the people in Yuncheng. You asked me to ask Yunye about this before. He said that he only wants to stay with his grandfather right now. Around the time after the New Year this year, the old man fell at home alone. I heard it was quite serious. Yunye even took leave to go home and take care of him for half a month. Later, when the old man got better, Yunye brought him over with him."
After that, he asked Dr. Zhang to examine the old man. Later, a few of us also went to visit the old man. At that time, he needed to rest in bed. After several months of recuperation, he had almost recovered. However, being old, he didn't really want to live in the family dormitory. Before I left, Yunye had already sent the old man back to his hometown.
Huo Haoshen quite liked Yunye. He was ruthless, daring, and quick to remember things after hearing them only once. Although he hadn't had much formal education, he had read quite a few books and knew a lot. If it weren't for what happened at home and Ruanruan's attempt to get him to study, which he refused, he might have achieved great things in the future.
