I particularly dislike it.
"Are you alright?" Leng Yingying asked, waving her hand in front of Qiao Gaoyang's eyes and looking him up and down.
She protected Qiao Gaoyang the whole time, so he shouldn't have gotten hurt.
"Huh?" Qiao Gaoyang was a little confused, not even hearing Leng Yingying's internal "tsk" of disdain. He only reacted when Leng Yingying waved her hand. "Oh, I'm fine, but you—"
"My savior! This time, I guess I've repaid you?" Leng Yingying said jokingly. She subconsciously reached out to pat Qiao Gaoyang's shoulder, initially using her injured hand, but as she raised her arm, "Ouch—"
How could we forget about this?
[Forget it, I'm already injured anyway, so looking cool is more important.]
Leng Yingying quickly retaliated, concealing her pained expression. She raised her other uninjured hand and patted Qiao Gaoyang's shoulder, speaking earnestly like an elder.
"Second brother of Dr. Su, although you are a technical talent who makes a living with your brain, you are still in the army. You still need to train when necessary, because you may encounter danger whenever you go on a mission."
“In a critical moment like just now, there’s a huge difference between having skills and not having them. You were really in danger just now…”
[With guns and knives at your disposal, and you're just standing there in a daze? If it weren't for me, you'd probably be dead twice over...]
Leng Yingying's verbal advice was very polite, but her inner complaints were anything but.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
Clearly, Leng Yingying misunderstood, thinking he was weak and helpless.
But it's not surprising that she misunderstood, since his performance was indeed lackluster—when he first encountered the traitor, he didn't have time to demonstrate his quick wit before being rescued by Leng Yingying, and later he became increasingly dazed, so it's no wonder that people would think that way.
"I understand. Thank you for what happened earlier," Qiao Gaoyang said.
He did not choose to explain.
Because explaining your subpar performance at this time will only make you look like you're making excuses. Not only will you not gain the trust of others, but you will also be seen as making excuses, and you will lose their respect.
“Your wound is still bleeding, go and bandage it quickly,” Qiao Gaoyang said.
"A minor issue." Leng Yingying smiled domineeringly, as if it were nothing to worry about.
This minor injury is nothing to me, the Queen.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
"Let's get it treated; it's not good for her to be bleeding like this," Qiao Gaoyang said. After all, Leng Yingying was injured while saving him, and he felt bad about it.
"You saved my life once before, so this counts as—"
After seeing Leng Yingying and Qiao Gaoyang return to safety, Su Yueya quickly rushed over with a first-aid kit.
"How are you? Are you badly injured? Let me see where you're hurt!" Su Yueya asked anxiously, putting down the first-aid kit and quickly pulling Leng Yingying to examine her.
[Hehe, the female lead really cares about me! It was worth saving!]
[This time, I not only repaid the female lead's second brother for saving my life, but I also made the female lead feel even more sorry for me. I'm truly a genius!]
The brother and sister: "..."
Leng Yingying actually thought this was a good thing!
Su Yueya checked and found that Leng Yingying was injured on her arm, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not a fatal location, and if handled properly, it won't have a significant impact on her.
"Sit down first, I'll treat your wound." With that, Su Yueya first used scissors to cut open the sleeve to expose the injured area, then began to disinfect, check for any fragments or debris in the wound, and then treat and bandage it.
Blood gushed out, and Qiao Gaoyang felt a pang of pity watching it.
It would have been one thing if the injury had fallen on him, but now that it had fallen on Leng Yingying, he felt a strange unease.
This is the first time he has been protected by a girl.
"Crescent Moon, is Deputy Company Commander Leng's injury serious?" Qiao Gaoyang asked.
"It's alright, it's just that I'll be living a normal life for a while, but it shouldn't leave any lasting effects," Su Yueya replied while operating the machine.
"Don't worry about it, it's really nothing," Leng Yingying said.
[If it weren't for wanting the female lead to feel sorry for me, I could have treated this injury myself. It's nothing!]
Back when she was living in the post-apocalyptic world, Leng Yingying never took these minor injuries seriously; she was used to it.
This time it was just a bit of a mishap; it was all to save Qiao Gaoyang, otherwise that traitor wouldn't have been able to hurt her at all.
Feeling guilty, Su Yueya used the best hemostatic powder on Leng Yingying, which she obtained from her personal shop without any hesitation.
"Deputy Company Commander Leng, after we apprehended the traitor, we found this on him." A soldier approached and handed Leng Yingying a small chip.
“That’s it!” Leng Yingying said.
They are still on a mission, but their mission is now complete. Next, it's Qiao Gaoyang's turn to appear.
"This is a chip, let's hurry back and decipher it," Leng Yingying urged, just as her wounds had been treated.
The group quickly went to the machines that had been set up at the back, and she handed the chip to Qiao Gaoyang.
"Thank you for your trouble," Leng Yingying said.
"It's my job." Qiao Gaoyang stopped wasting time and took the chip, immediately starting his work.
Only Qiao Gaoyang came to the intelligence team. As his skills improved, the decryption work became easier and easier for him.
Just as he had guessed, the traitor had tampered with the chip, and it needed to be deciphered again.
He was focused on operating the machine.
Many people were watching Qiao Gaoyang's movements. None of them knew how to decipher it; they were complete novices and could only watch as Qiao Gaoyang's fingers flew across the screen.
A short while later, he pressed the last button.
“It’s done,” Qiao Gaoyang said.
On the screen, a lot of information began to scroll rapidly.
This information is of great significance, no less so than that of the captured traitors.
"Wow, that's amazing! How did they crack it? I can't understand it at all. It's incredible. They just kept tapping and they cracked it?"
"Yes, it's completely incomprehensible. Such a small chip contains so much information..."
"Otherwise what? Do you really think our intelligence team soldiers are just sitting around doing nothing? They're technical experts, highly skilled personnel!"
In the past, Qiao Gaoyang would feel secretly pleased and have a great sense of accomplishment whenever he saw other soldiers' opinions of the intelligence group change after he showed off his skills.
But he felt a little guilty today, after all, he was the one who caused Leng Yingying's injury.
[You've got something...]
Although Leng Yingying didn't discuss Qiao Gaoyang's decoding efforts with the same excitement as the other soldiers, she was quite quick-witted and had plenty to say.
[I never expected the female lead's second brother to be so amazing. To have this level of skill in this era is truly remarkable!]
[He's a tech whiz, no doubt about it! I wasn't wrong when I said he was a technical talent; he's not a complete idiot!]
