Chapter 183 The soldiers were too enthusiastic
Du Ruoxia was truly too formidable; Commander Zhou had no choice but to admit defeat.
Commander Zhou witnessed her performing surgery on Liu Wang, and only then did he realize what a truly miraculous doctor was.
As Du Ruoxia was packing up the equipment, Commander Zhou also came over to help her.
"Dr. Du, on behalf of the soldiers, thank you for coming to help."
Despite being a division commander, Commander Zhou treated Du Ruoxia with great kindness.
"Commander Zhou, there's no need to be so polite."
Du Ruoxia smiled faintly; she didn't say anything more or try to curry favor.
After the two had tidied up the scene, Du Ruoxia suddenly spoke up.
"I also want to thank you for what happened with Liu Haitao."
Du Ruoxia's sudden thanks surprised Commander Zhou.
He quickly waved his hand, but his smile was very bright.
"Our military does not allow special treatment."
"If I really have to say it, I should thank you for giving me this opportunity!"
"Liu Haitao has returned to the grassroots level and is now receiving the treatment of a new recruit. I want to undergo the same training as them."
“If he really has the ability, I don’t need to kill him. Let him rise from the bottom, and that will also win people’s respect.”
Du Ruoxia was just asking casually, but Commander Zhou continued talking with great interest.
He not only talked about Liu Haitao's current situation, but also about some of his basic information.
"What happened to Liu Haitao's wife and children after he stopped being a company commander?"
Since things had come to this point, Du Ruoxia couldn't help but ask another question.
"Liu Haitao is not a company commander, so he naturally cannot live in the family compound. His original house has been taken back, and his wife and children have returned to their hometown."
It must be said that Du Ruoxia was very satisfied with this outcome.
Commander Zhou only stayed in the infirmary for a short while before leaving.
When he returned, he discovered that the entire unit was talking about Du Ruoxia.
A morning passed quickly, and after several hours of work, Du Ruoxia suddenly felt hungry.
She was still thinking about how to resolve the situation at noon when Yang Zeyan arrived.
"Xiaxia, are you done with your work?"
Yang Zeyan leaned against the door of the infirmary and smiled at him.
He walked over against the wind and snow, and the moment he opened the door, he brought with him a chill.
A thin layer of snow covered his head and body, making him look even more aloof.
But he had a bright smile on his face, and he looked upright and masculine.
"Just finished."
Du Ruoxia turned around abruptly upon hearing his voice.
Yang Zeyan's tall and straight figure appeared before her eyes.
Du Ruoxia's heart skipped a beat. This man was stunning no matter when or where you saw him.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the army canteen for a meal."
Most soldiers eat all three meals a day at the military base; only officers go back to cook dinner.
The army's canteens are divided into two types, one of which is where ordinary soldiers eat.
The food was all cooked in large pots, with generous portions and lots of meat and vegetables, but it wasn't very refined.
The officers ate in a small canteen, where they ate small pot dishes with a wide variety of options.
Whether they are officers or soldiers, they have to train non-stop every day, which results in a huge drain on their energy.
Everyone here is a master at eating; each one can eat more than the last.
Family members are usually not allowed to come to the military base for meals, but Du Ruoxia actually took over the position of military doctor, so she was able to come for meals.
Yang Zeyan was worried that she wouldn't know where the cafeteria was, so he took the initiative to come and invite her.
Du Ruoxia thought to herself, "Don't let this man's burly appearance fool you, he's surprisingly thoughtful."
She was brought in at the last minute, which can be considered a mission undertaken in a time of crisis.
Yang Zeyan thought of even these details in such a short time, which shows how much he cared for Du Ruoxia.
“Great! I’ve never been to a military mess hall before, so I’ll go with you to see it today.”
Du Ruoxia had a bright smile on her face and said some very supportive things.
Seeing that no one was around, Yang Zeyan quietly took her hand.
Although Du Ruoxia remained indoors, her hands were extremely cold.
Although Yang Zeyan had come from outside, his hands were warm.
His large palm enveloped Du Ruoxia's small hand.
His rough, calloused fingers gently caressed her fingertips.
Du Ruoxia felt a tingling sensation in her hands.
Yang Zeyan took her to the army canteen.
Many comrades greeted them warmly.
Yang Zeyan has been in the army for many years. Although he is not very old, he has a very high rank.
When everyone saw Du Ruoxia, they all called her "sister-in-law".
Hello.
Hello.
The soldiers were so enthusiastic that Du Ruoxia's face became stiff from smiling.
"Alright, alright, let's go eat."
It was only after Yang Zeyan came to her rescue that Du Ruoxia breathed a sigh of relief.
The two chose their dishes and sat down to eat together.
Yang Zeyan has limited lunch break time, so he eats very quickly.
Du Ruoxia usually eats very politely, but today, influenced by him, she also ate faster.
Even so, after Yang Zeyan finished his meal, Du Ruoxia only ate half of it.
"If you're busy, you can go back first."
Du Ruoxia felt a little uncomfortable under Yang Zeyan's gaze, and immediately started to shoo him away.
"It's not time for my break yet, and I'm not as busy as you think."
Yang Zeyan smiled slightly at her, resting his chin on his hands. He first looked at Du Ruoxia's small face, and then his gaze was drawn to her small mouth.
Last night, I kissed him right here. It was so fragrant and soft, and the kiss made him feel hot all over.
Yang Zeyan couldn't help but let his mind wander, and sure enough, he felt hot all over again.
When Du Ruoxia finished eating, she looked up and saw that Yang Zeyan's tanned face was mixed with a little red, which looked very strange.
"Yang Zeyan, what are you doing?"
Du Ruoxia squinted and asked in confusion.
"No, it's nothing. I have training this afternoon, so I won't go back with you."
Yang Zeyan felt exposed and immediately couldn't stay in front of her any longer.
He practically fled when he left.
Du Ruoxia looked thoughtfully at Yang Zeyan's slightly disheveled back.
Unexpectedly, Yang Zeyan stepped into a snow pit because he was walking too fast.
If he hadn't reacted quickly, he probably would have fallen to the ground by now.
Du Ruoxia covered her mouth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
In her view, Yang Zeyan has always been the epitome of maturity and composure.
I never thought that someone as composed as him would stumble one day.
It's like a monk suddenly eating meat; some preconceived notions are broken, and it feels very novel.
Du Ruoxia saw several more patients in the afternoon.
This time it wasn't a fall that caused injury, but rather the sudden drop in temperature that caused several soldiers to catch severe colds.
They had been enduring it all because they didn't want to become a burden.
Now that I've heard that Du Ruoxia is a highly skilled doctor, I'm even more eager to see her.
Du Ruoxia took their pulses and prescribed Chinese medicine for each person based on their condition.
