Chapter 859: Unavoidable Issues

The person who spoke was Sun Hongmei, who lived next door to Zhang Xinrong.

She was the first to know about Zhang Xinrong's injury yesterday.

When I stuck my head out to look, I saw Zhu Lai Di walking with the soldiers with a sullen face.

That expression didn't look like she was worried about her son being injured. Instead, it looked like she was disgusted with Zhang Xinrong for causing her trouble.

Sure enough, she had been gone for only a short time before she came back in the evening.

Even though everyone present knew what kind of person Zhu Lai Di was, they still couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.

"Is Zhang Xinrong really her son?"

Everyone present was a mother. If anything happened to their sons, it would be as painful as cutting out their flesh. But Zhu Lai Di was different. Her son was shot and lying in the hospital, but she actually ran back.

"I'm not surprised that she came back, but I don't know who will take care of her son after she ran away? Will she go to find Chunmei?"

Zhong Juhua was not surprised at Zhu Lai Di's behavior. After all, what mother would sit at the doorstep and criticize her son for no reason?

Aren’t you afraid of ruining your son’s reputation?

The only thing that made her feel it was not worth it was Wang Chunmei. Even though she was divorced, she was still entangled with this family.

And Zhong Juhua's guess was correct.

On the other side, Wang Chunmei was stopped by someone just after she got off work.

Seeing that it was a young man in military uniform, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Sister-in-law...Comrade Wang." The young soldier's expression was a little restrained.

"Hello, comrade." Wang Chunmei nodded politely.

"It's like this, sister-in-law...Comrade Wang, I came here to tell you that the company commander is injured."

Hearing this, Wang Chunmei immediately guessed the little soldier's purpose.

Did he want her to go to the hospital to see Zhang Xinrong?

But she really didn't want to have anything to do with her divorced ex other than their children.

"If he's injured, he should go see a doctor. I'm not a doctor, so I can't help."

Wang Chunmei said in a calm voice.

Although it was expected, Yang Yizhou still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

They all heard in the barracks that the company commander was arguing about divorce with his sister-in-law.

He came here with a glimmer of hope, but he didn't expect Wang Chunmei to be so heartless.

"Comrade Wang, the company commander is in a very bad condition. He had a high fever of 40 degrees last night and kept calling your name. If possible, I hope you can go to the hospital to see him."

After leaving a few words, Yang Yizhou didn't stay any longer and just turned around and ran away.

Wang Chunmei looked at his departing back, a trace of struggle flashing in her eyes.

In the hospital, Zhang Xinrong opened his eyes blurry and saw a dazzling white.

After blinking, my vision gradually became clear.

He is not dead?

Zhang Xinrong curled the corners of his mouth, feeling relieved to have survived a disaster.

He is not dead and can still see Chunmei!

No one knows how much regret he felt in his heart when he was shot.

I regret not trying harder to win her back.

He felt very unwilling to accept the thought that if he died, she would marry another man in the future!

Fortunately, he was lucky and survived!

Zhang Xinrong wanted to grin, but it agitated the wound and he couldn't help but hiss.

"Captain! You're awake!"

Suddenly, the voice of the young soldier Yang Yizhou came from the door. He saw him holding a food box and looking at him with joy.

"Well, how long was I unconscious?"

Zhang Xinrong tried to sit up from the bed, but he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder blade.

"Be careful, I'll help you."

Yang Yizhou put down the lunch box and hurried forward to help him sit up.

"You were unconscious all night and your fever just subsided this morning."

He stayed up all night last night and was almost scared to death by him.

To be honest, their company commander is really pitiful. When others are injured, either their mother or their wife takes care of them.

But the company commander's mother only stayed here for a while, and no one knew what she heard, so she ran away in panic.

The company commander's ex-daughter-in-law, whom he had been thinking about all the time, was also very cold and had no intention of coming to see him.

"Captain, come and have some porridge. I got it from the cafeteria."

Yang Yizhou served him the porridge. Although he felt sympathy for the company commander's tragic experience, he did not show it on his face.

Zhang Xinrong had no idea that he had gone to see Wang Chunmei, and refused Yang Yizhou's offer to feed him. He endured the pain, picked up the spoon and slowly drank the porridge.

After finishing the porridge, he got up and went to the toilet.

If his shoulder hadn't been wrapped in thick gauze, it would have been impossible to tell that he was injured.

However, the situation last night was really dangerous. After guarding for a whole night, Yang Yizhou saw that his company commander was in much better spirits, so he felt relieved.

"You take a rest, I'm fine." Zhang Xinrong saw the fatigue in his eyes and pointed to the empty bed next to him.

Yang Yizhou was indeed very sleepy, but he did not refuse. "Captain, I'll take a nap first. If you need anything, just call me."

Yang Yizhou was worried and said this to Zhang Xinrong before going to bed.

"Well, go to sleep."

Zhang Xinrong had slept for a long time and was not feeling sleepy at all.

Wang Chunmei's every smile and frown flashed through his mind, and he felt sad.

There was no doubt about his feelings for her, but the gap between them still existed.

This is an issue that cannot be avoided.

Zhang Xinrong stared blankly at the window of the ward, his mind in a mess.

I don't know how much time had passed, but a familiar soft voice came from the corridor.

"Excuse me, do you know which bed the injured soldier who was taken to the hospital yesterday was in?"

It’s Chunmei!

Hearing her voice, Zhang Xinrong reflexively lay back on the bed.

But his movements were too big. How could the wound that was bandaged with great difficulty yesterday withstand such movements?

I just lay down while enduring the pain, and I smelled a bloody smell in my nose.

At the same time, there was a damp feeling under the shoulder armor.

But Zhang Xinrong no longer cared about it, because the familiar footsteps were already coming towards his ward.

Zhang Xinrong couldn't help but hold his breath.

Wang Chunmei was holding a thermos bucket in her hand, which was the one she saw Su Ranran with last time.

When she reached the door of the ward, she stopped.

There were two people lying in the ward, one of whom was the young man in military uniform who called her in the morning.

And who else could that pale-faced person be if not Zhang Xinrong?

Wang Chunmei was shocked to see that he was indeed seriously injured.

He walked into the ward carrying the thermos bucket.

"Chunmei!" Zhang Xinrong's eyes were full of excitement.

He didn't expect that she would come to see him!

"I heard you were injured. I came to see you."

Wang Chunmei had not thought about it at first, but when she heard the young soldier say that his situation was a little dangerous.

It would be inhumane for her not to come.

After all, they divorced peacefully, so it was reasonable for her to visit him.

It’s not that Zhang Xinrong didn’t notice her politeness, but the fact that she could come to see him was enough to make him ecstatic.

He was trying to sit up, supporting himself on the bed with his hands.

But this movement pulled the wound again, and he couldn't help but hiss.

Wang Chunmei looked at the fresh blood on his gauze and couldn't help but frowning.

"Don't move! I'll go call the doctor."
