"Us." Qin Zhenzhen met the nurse's ambiguous gaze and naturally realized what the nurse thought of her and Zhao Jun. She wanted to explain that she and Zhao Jun were just acquaintances, but after thinking about it, she felt it was unnecessary.
Regardless of what outsiders think, they know what's going on in their hearts.
After the nurse left, Zhao Jun looked shyly at Qin Zhenzhen and said, "Comrade Qin, it's okay. I can eat by myself in a bit. I can't move that hand, but I still have the other one. I can eat with this uninjured hand."
His words made Qin Zhenzhen even more embarrassed to leave.
“Zhao Zhiqing, how can you manage with only one hand… Hey, if you don’t mind, I can help you later. You can just think of me as a nurse.”
"How could I possibly accept that?"
"If you don't want to use her, that's fine." Qin Zhenzhen didn't force him; perhaps Zhao Jun simply didn't want to use her.
Just as she was about to stand up, Zhao Jun immediately said, "I didn't say I didn't want to use you, Comrade Qin, thank you."
On the other side, Luo Jingyan was feeding Xue Yanchen.
Xue Yanchen had just undergone surgery. Because the wound was on his abdomen, he couldn't move easily and could only eat liquid food for the time being. Someone specially brought him nutritious porridge, rice porridge with milk and eggs. Luo Jingyan fed him spoonful by spoonful.
He can only eat a little bit, and his body mainly relies on intravenous nutrition to maintain its functions.
When Luo Jingyan poured him water, she would secretly add some spiritual spring water to it, which would help him recover from his injuries.
Luo Jingyan hadn't seen Qin Zhenzhen return from Zhao Jun's ward, and said, "I wonder if Zhenzhen is feeding Zhao Zhiqing over there."
Xue Yanchen was secretly annoyed that Zhao Jun had too many tricks up his sleeve and acted too quickly, managing to seduce his cousin so soon.
"Why don't you go and take a look?"
"OK."
Luo Jingyan put down her bowl and went to the door next door. She found Qin Zhenzhen feeding Zhao Jun. She didn't say anything and quietly left, returning to Xue Yanchen's ward.
"That's true."
"That brat Zhao Jun!"
"Hey, don't move!" Luo Jingyan quickly went over, afraid that he would get agitated and get out of bed to hit Zhao Jun: "You are injured, remember not to move around and aggravate the wound, otherwise you will have to go into the operating room again, are you not afraid of suffering?"
Xue Yanchen gradually calmed down: "That kid moved too fast. I don't know what tricks he used. I really misjudged him. I didn't expect him to have so many tricks up his sleeve."
Luo Jingyan sat down again, picked up the rice bowl and continued to feed him: "It's just feeding you, it's not like you're offering yourself to him. Maybe he doesn't think that way. After all, Zhao Jun is also wounded and needs someone to take care of him. But judging from your reaction, do you know what's going on between them? Tell me about it."
"Zhao Jun has taken a liking to Zhenzhen. I don't know what Zhenzhen thinks of him. I told him to pursue her based on his own abilities, but I didn't expect him to be so quick."
"So you think he deliberately used some underhanded methods."
“When we were in the army, we were comrades for three years. I thought I knew him well enough and that he was a very honest person. I don’t know if I was wrong about him.”
Luo Jingyan smiled and said, "Don't think about it too much. If you want to know what happened, just ask Zhenzhen when she gets back."
Half an hour later, Qin Zhenzhen came over from Zhao Jun's ward. As soon as she entered, she was met with gossipy stares from the two people inside.
"Cousin, cousin-in-law, why are you staring at me like that?"
"It's nothing." Luo Jingyan asked her, "How is Zhao Jun?"
"Fortunately, he injured one hand and couldn't eat by himself. I helped him finish his meal, and he rested before I came back. I'm going home now, and the nurses will take care of him from now on."
Luo Jingyan observed that her tone of voice was natural, without any hint of embarrassment or awkwardness, and that her feelings for Zhao Jun were purely out of concern.
Luo Jingyan doesn't plan to go back tonight; she needs to stay here to take care of Xue Yanchen. So, she can only ask Qin Zhenzhen to take Luo Changtian back to the Shengli Brigade's educated youth settlement.
That night, Luo Jingyan slept on another empty bed in the ward.
During the night, the anesthetic in Xue Yanchen's body had long since worn off. When Luo Jingyan woke up, she saw him with his brows furrowed and his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.
She got out of bed, put on her shoes, walked over, and called out to him, "Yanchen."
He slowly opened his eyes and asked Luo Jingyan, "Did I wake you up?"
"No, you didn't make a sound. I need to go to the bathroom. Is your wound hurting again?"
"A little, but it's nothing serious."
Luo Jingyan remembered his earlier suggestion of using kissing to relieve pain, so she lowered her head and kissed his lips. The unexpected kiss, with their soft lips touching, made Xue Yanchen instantly forget the pain in his body, and he gradually became immersed in this intoxicating kiss.
After a while, Luo Jingyan got up and asked him, "Does it still hurt?"
The man's expression was somewhat perfunctory: "It didn't hurt just now."
"Does it hurt again?" Luo Jingyan suspected he was lying, but she still didn't refuse, so she lowered her head and kissed his lips again.
It was late at night, the curtains were drawn, and she had locked the ward door from the inside, not worried at all about anyone suddenly barging in.
Several minutes later, Luo Jingyan got up and went to the restroom.
The man lying on the hospital bed licked his lips, a look of satisfaction on his face.
When Luo Jingyan returned, she asked him, "Do you want some water?"
"Give me a little."
Luo Jingyan poured water with her back to him, secretly adding a few drops of spiritual spring water to the water, then inserted a straw into the quilt and brought one end of the straw to his lips.
After drinking the water, Xue Yanchen felt that the pain in his body had not returned much. After Luo Jingyan went to bed and fell asleep, he quickly fell asleep as well.
