Lin Yu suddenly understood. "Sis! You're so smart! You even thought of this!"
"Of course I'm smart, no need to praise me! Come and eat!"
"They're here!"
As Lin Anran had predicted, Yang Duo stopped bringing snacks to everyone in the next three to five days, and people began to complain again.
A group of burly men surrounded the thin woman. "Yang Xue! What happened? Where are your snacks today?"
"Yes, I'm sorry! Everyone, we're running out of supplies."
"We don't believe it! There were definitely several big bags of snacks that day, how could they be missing? You didn't deliberately hide them so you wouldn't share them with everyone, did you!"
"Yes! You know what happened that day yourself. We saved your life. What? You don't plan to repay our kindness?"
Yang Xue quickly waved her hand, tears welling in her eyes, "No, no! We really have none left. We've already given you so many supplies these past few days, and we're out of them too!"
The man in the lead loudly asked the crowd behind him, "Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it!"
He raised an eyebrow and, thinking himself very cool, flicked his bangs. "See? Nobody believes you. Why don't you open the car door and let everyone check?"
"Yes! Let's check it!"
Yang Duo's face turned deathly pale, and she collapsed to the ground.
"Duo'er!"
Having just finished his work, Xu Hu wanted to have a self-heating hot pot, but as soon as he got closer, he sensed something was wrong.
He rushed forward and caught Yang Duo, who was about to fall to the ground, and said, "Why are you all here? Why are you bullying Duo'er, a girl!"
"Who bullied her!"
The man was also wronged. They only said a few words and didn't even touch her, yet she collapsed. They were really good at pretending!
"If it weren't you, there's no way Duo'er would be lying on the ground!"
Now, this group of people were truly left speechless, unable to express their bitterness.
"Who touched her! That hypocrite! Today I've truly experienced the taste of green tea from the Biluochun brand. What bad luck!"
"Yeah! Yeah! What an absolute white lotus! We just came to ask her a few questions, and she's already acting like this! How could she possibly be qualified to join the base's superhuman squad!"
"What's all the noise about? Aren't you all going to rest?"
Chen Chao's appearance was perfectly timed, and everyone fell silent.
He glanced coldly at the woman who had collapsed in Xu Hu's arms, his brows furrowing slightly. "Why did she faint? Su Xing, get someone to check on her!"
"Okay!"
After a long wait by everyone, Su Xing appeared with a beaming smile on his face, accompanied by his mother, Lin Ma.
The serious Chen Chao softened his expression. "Hmm? Girl, it's you?"
Lin's mother suppressed her excitement and said earnestly, "I'm a doctor, and I have to step forward at this time. We can't delay that girl's treatment!"
She looked intently at the woman who had collapsed into Xu Hu's arms, and the little voice in her heart jumped with excitement. This is wonderful!
This is my first time seeing melons up close like this, I'm so nervous!
Jiang Rong stood on the outside with a mournful expression. "I can't see anything. I also want to see it up close. Sister Wanwan is so unreliable this time. She didn't even take me!"
Lin Yu chimed in, "Yeah! Yeah! Mom didn't even bother to bring us in."
"You brat!"
After being slapped by his father, Lin Yu stood behind Lin Anran looking aggrieved.
Lin Anran smiled helplessly, "Alright! Stop fooling around, let's watch the show!"
Lin's mother solemnly took the frail woman from Xu Hu's arms, "Don't worry! Captain Xu, I'm licensed to work!"
Feeling uneasy, Xu Hu received a warning look and could only gently release the woman, waiting quietly to the side.
Lin's mother examined her eyes and mouth with her hands, her face grave.
Everyone held their breath, wondering if they had really caused trouble! But they really hadn't made a move!
Lin's mother slowly got up, and Xu Hu quickly stepped forward, "How is she? Is she alright?"
Lin's mother shook her head and sighed.
Xu Hu's eyes widened. "What's wrong with her? Why are you shaking your head? Please save her!"
Hearing this, the person lying on the ground seemed relieved, and their tense hands gradually relaxed.
Chen Chao also looked puzzled. "What's wrong? Girl, can't we save her?"
"Oh no, you've misunderstood, she's fine, Rongrong! Quickly, get me a needle!"
Lin's mother called out to Jiang Rong, who was standing in a daze in the distance, her tone anxious.
What are you standing there for, woman? Come watch the show!
"Ah! They're here! They're here!"
Jiang Rong excitedly squeezed in, holding the silver needles that Lin Anran had just handed her.
"Here you go, Wanwan."
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the needle, and they couldn't help but shiver.
It's so long and so thick, are you sure it will work?
When Lin Ma saw the thick silver needles, she twitched her lips. This was too ruthless!
But I like it!
She took it and gestured over the woman's head on the ground, causing Xu Hu's eyelids to twitch.
"Will this work? Don't hurt Duo'er!"
Lin's mother looked displeased. "It won't hurt your Duo'er. Don't talk and bother me!"
Xu Hu was filled with anger but dared not vent it, so he could only stand aside and watch nervously.
"Alright! I'm going to start the acupuncture!"
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the needle, and no one noticed that the woman on the ground had her hands clenched tightly into a fist.
The needle slowly pierced her skin, and Yang Duo could no longer bear it, crying out, "Ah!"
Lin's mother immediately stopped the woman who was moving around, "Don't move, be careful not to misalign the needle."
Startled, Yang Duo froze, tears streaming down her face.
"All done!" Lin Ma pulled out the silver needles and looked at everyone with a proud expression.
"See! I told you I could save them, but it turned out I couldn't!"
Those who had just been wrongly accused breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yang Duo, you're finally awake! Your captain almost framed us to death! Quickly explain what happened to him!"
"Yes! Yes! How did she suddenly faint? Everyone thought we did it!"
Yang Duo's face was deathly pale, and her voice was weak, "No, I accidentally fainted. I'm sorry, I've wronged everyone!"
Not wanting to waste any more time, Chen Chao gave a perfunctory reply and turned back to his car.
Lin's mother casually brought up what had just happened, "Little boy, why did you faint? Did something happen to you?"
Let me tell you, some things can't be bottled up. Your captain's here, right? It's better to deal with things properly, otherwise it'll easily hurt your health!
Reminded by this, Xu Hu asked, "Yes! Duo'er, what just happened? Tell me."
"No, it's nothing."
The man next to her couldn't hold back any longer, "What do you mean there's nothing? She said she wanted to repay our life-saving grace, but she only sent supplies for two days, and today she says there's nothing left!"
"If you didn't want to give it, you shouldn't have given it in the first place! Now you've only given it for two days and you're already saying you've saved our lives? I think you're just playing us!"
"Yes! Yes! They're just playing us!"
