Liu Jincai? !
Lu Zhan's pupils widened for a moment, and his sharp eyes immediately looked at Chen Chunyan who was standing there in a daze.
Is she Liu Jincai's girlfriend? Why haven't I heard Liu Jincai mention her before?
However, the last time Liu Jincai came to say goodbye to him, he did bring Chen Chunyan in with him.
So what's going on now that Chen Chunyan flatly denies having a partner?
Feeling Lu Zhan's inquiring gaze, Chen Chunyan, who had not expected that her secret would be exposed in public, felt like a thorn in her back. Her throat suddenly became dry and she couldn't speak. Her mind raced to find an excuse to cover it up.
Lu Qiuya's words made her confused. She never expected to hear the name Liu Jincai from Lu Qiuya, and she never expected that Lu Qiuya actually knew about their relationship.
"Well, do you remember now?"
Seeing that she was speechless due to her questioning, Lu Qiuya could not hide the smug expression on her face:
"This is why I'm treating you badly. You're already in a relationship, yet you have the nerve to say you have feelings for my brother. Are you trying to two-timing someone?!"
This time Lu Zhan didn't speak, but frowned in thought -
If it is true as Qiuya said that Nurse Chen is Liu Jincai's girlfriend, then she just shamelessly said that she has a good impression of him, so this person's moral character must be questionable.
He must have a good talk with Liu Jincai about this matter.
In this situation, how could Chen Chunyan admit it? If she admitted it, it would be like slapping herself in the face. She could only bite the bullet and deny it to the end:
"Qiuya, you misunderstood. I do know Captain Liu. He and Captain Lu are from the same unit. They came to our town together to help with disaster relief. We are just acquaintances, not lovers."
"What? That Liu Jincai is in the same unit as my brother?!"
Lu Qiuya was shocked and angry, and almost jumped up in anger:
"Chen Chunyan! You are so shameless! You are actually dating my brother's comrade-in-arms and trying to seduce my brother at the same time. How dare someone like you become a military dependent? Pah!"
"You're really stubborn. What do you mean by a relatively familiar relationship? The kind where you're close enough to kiss?"
Lu Zhan's "old father" radar captured the signal of sensitive words again, and he immediately glanced at Lu Qiuya with a warning look.
But at this moment, Lu Qiuya was already so angry at Chen Chunyan's shamelessness that she didn't even realize her brother was glaring at her. She just kept talking to herself:
"Don't try to quibble. I heard and saw everything clearly in the hospital's back garden that day. The two of you were hiding behind the bushes and being affectionate. Who would do such a thing if they weren't lovers?!"
This sentence was like a thunderbolt that struck Chen Chunyan.
The person who eavesdropped on her conversation with Liu Jincai in the small garden that day was actually Lu Qiuya?!
Seeing the expression on Lu Zhan's face gradually change from suspicion to solemnity, Chen Chunyan felt anxious. If she couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation at this moment, she and Lu Zhan would have no hope in this life!
Just as Chen Chunyan was racking her brains to find an excuse, she suddenly heard Lu Zhan say:
"Old Liu..."
The word "Lao Liu" immediately gave Chen Chunyan inspiration -
Yes, there is such a big age gap between her and Liu Jincai, and their talents are not a match. It seems impossible for her to like Liu Jincai in the eyes of normal people. How could a young and beautiful girl like her choose Liu Jincai, who is like a piece of rotten wood, as her partner?
So, the problem lies with Liu Jincai!
Chen Chunyan quickly made up a ridiculous excuse in her mind, and immediately put on an awkward look, hesitant to speak, and said:
"Qiuya, you really misunderstood me!"
After she finished speaking, she covered her chest hypocritically, with a tearful expression on her face as she continued:
"I didn't want to say this originally, because Captain Liu, like Captain Lu, is a great hero of our Anfeng Town. I don't want to affect Captain Liu's reputation, but now that you've misunderstood me like this, I have no choice but to say it."
Lu Qiuya was about to open her mouth to retort her, but was stopped dead in her tracks by Lu Zhan's warning look.
Okay, she endured it!
She wanted to see how this Nurse Chen could eloquently explain the facts she had witnessed as a "misunderstanding"!
Chen Chunyan pretended to take a deep breath, as if what she was about to say was very difficult for her to say. Seeing that Lu Qiuya was about to lose her temper and curse again, she reluctantly opened her mouth and said:
"When I was in the refugee area, Captain Lu saved my life. So after I woke up, I wanted to repay Captain Lu for saving my life, so I stayed in the communications tent to take care of Captain Lu. As a result, I had more opportunities to meet with Captain Liu."
"At that time, I was very worried that Captain Lu would not wake up, and I felt very stressed. Captain Liu took extra care of me, always concerned about me, guiding me, and encouraging me. I have always respected him as a good elder brother."
"After the rescue, Captain Liu suddenly asked me if I would like to be transferred to the military hospital. I was just a nurse at the town clinic before, so I said yes with great gratitude. I just thought I had met a noble person."
"Not long after, I actually received an order to be seconded to the military hospital. On the first day I reported to the military hospital, Company Commander Liu came and took me to visit Battalion Commander Lu."
"Until then, I had naively thought that Captain Liu was a good man, but I never expected..."
Lu Zhan's eyes shifted back from elsewhere, and he spoke coldly with a solemn expression:
"What didn't you expect?"
Chen Chunyan opened her eyes wide and tried desperately to squeeze out two tears, but no tears came out after squeezing for a long time. She could only pretend to rub her eyes and continued:
"But I didn't expect that Captain Liu would come to see me again. He called me to the hospital's small garden and confessed his love to me behind the bushes, saying he wanted me to be his partner."
"I was terrified. There's such a big age gap between us, and our interests and hobbies are generational. What's more, I already have someone I like. I rejected him on the spot."
"But Captain Liu kept pestering me and refused to let me go. He said that by accepting his job offer to transfer to the military region, I had agreed to his pursuit. No matter how I explained, he wouldn't listen, and even..."
Chen Chunyan stopped talking here and swallowed her saliva unconsciously, feeling a little uneasy.
In order to prove that she was not the fickle person that Lu Qiuya described, she could only push all the problems onto Liu Jincai. However, she was not sure how much impact her next words would have on Liu Jincai, and she was struggling in her heart.
But she only hesitated for a moment, and after carefully glancing at Lu Zhan's expression, she steeled her heart and said:
"He even hugged me forcefully and tried to molest me!"
