Chapter 152: Gentle Land
Chen Zhu bit her lower lip, knowing full well that she had nothing to rely on. Fortunately, she still had Huo Jinzhi's trust.
"The ingredients of the medicine I have are still unclear, but it will definitely heal his wound. I don't need to harm him." Chen Zhu spoke hesitantly, and couldn't help but look at Huo Jinzhi.
The gentle trust in those bright black eyes soothed the restlessness in her heart: "What's listed on the ingredient list may not be true. The medicine in your hand has obvious signs of fraud, but more specialized research equipment is needed to detect it."
Zheng Linger wanted to slap Shen Zhuyi in the face. This woman said so much nonsense shamelessly, but didn't she have any evidence?
"If what you said is true, we will find a way to further refine it, but if it is false, it will waste a lot of manpower and material resources, and you will have to go to jail for life." Commander Zhou had been on the battlefield for a long time, so of course he recognized that this was the most commonly used painkiller. At this moment, he spoke to Chen Zhu with a stern face.
This straightforward threat made Shen Zhu's eyes light up, and he seized the opportunity: "I am willing to bear the consequences, but I also hope to be allowed to join the research team."
She could also consider using the cutting-edge equipment from later generations in her space.
Since her rebirth, she has only used the space to store things, which is such a waste.
"You?" Zheng Ling'er's face was full of sarcasm, and she looked at Chen Zhuyi with a scrutinizing gaze. "You didn't just spread rumors for this opportunity, did you?"
This look, this expression, seemed to directly convict Chen Zhu.
"Before the drug analysis is fully completed, I don't need any money. Just let me join. I am confident that I can make changes in the shortest possible time!"
Chen Zhuyi is not particularly short of money. What she needs is an opportunity to prove herself. Staying on the small island as a teacher is good, but this kind of peaceful life is far from her ability.
"Okay, I will report this matter to my superiors immediately." Commander Zhou agreed without hesitation, with a subtle glimmer of fire in his eyes.
Zheng Mingguo, watching their antics, couldn't help but interrupt, "Are you crazy? Old Zhou, she's just a little girl. She probably can't even recognize all the words above, and yet she's spouting nonsense like that?"
Chen Zhu lowered his eyes and looked at the English beside him, and read it out fluently and smoothly. Even Zheng Linger knew some of the professional words and phrases because she had the need to learn in this area.
Her eyes widened: "How can you know so much?"
"I'm lucky. I've studied relevant foreign literature, and the translations of several medicines are different from our domestic ones. If you are willing to trust me, I can stay here and be a translator for everyone." Chen Zhuyi was not proud of himself, but recommended himself.
Huo Jinzhi will have to stay here to recuperate, so it's a good opportunity for her to find something to do. Only when she proves her ability will Commander Zhou feel at ease, right?
"I need to find someone else to test your ability." Zheng Mingguo took a deep breath, but he was already 80% confident in Shen Zhu's ability.
His silly daughter's jaw dropped, which showed how frightened she was by this woman who appeared out of nowhere.
"Of course." Chen Zhuyi was not afraid of any challenge and agreed with a smile.
"However, summer vacation is coming soon. Before I officially join the experimental group, I hope I can go home for a while."
"This requirement is not high. As long as you can pass the examination of our doctors, you will be able to move freely. We don't have to lock you up." Zheng Mingguo agreed with a smile.
Huo Jinzhi pretended to cough twice, revealing a trace of fatigue, and covered his wound again: "I don't know why, but my wound hurts slightly. Is there something wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Linger rushed over and wanted to check. Zheng Mingguo grabbed his daughter's hand and waved to Ye Xumei: "Okay, since you trust this female comrade's medical skills, let her help you."
Zheng Linger struggled as hard as she could, but still couldn't break free from her father's hands. She could only leave, and as she walked out she continued to complain, "Brother Huo is not in good health, I should have been watching over him!"
"You have been taking care of his health during this period. Could there be any bad situation?" Zheng Mingguo rolled his eyes in annoyance and pointed out sharply.
Young people just want to be alone with the girl they like, and there is no need for them to be the bad guy.
After the people in the ward gradually dispersed, Shen Zhuyi began to remove Huo Jinzhi's bandages. Huo Jinzhi, who was calm even in the face of danger on the battlefield, was a little nervous. He reached out and pulled Shen Zhuyi's hand: "The wound has healed a lot."
"How can I change the dressing for you without looking at the wound?" Chen Zhuyi said as a matter of course, with a hint of coldness in his black eyes.
"It doesn't look good." Huo Jinzhi said this, but he loosened his grip and let Shen Zhu look at his wound.
There were many deep and shallow scars on the man's well-muscled body, and even traces of gunshot wounds. Chen Zhu brushed them away one by one with her soft little hands, with some heartache in her eyes, and Huo Jinzhi's body trembled slightly.
"It's not good-looking to begin with, it's not worth it to scare you." Huo Jinzhi advised, then grabbed Chen Zhuyi's hand again, slightly increasing his strength, as if trying to restrain his surging emotions.
"It looks pretty good. They're all your medals." Chen Zhuyi replied softly, admiring his ability even more. He added, "Okay, it's time to apply the medicine. How can I apply it if you're holding me back?"
The powder was sprinkled on Huo Jinzhi's body, and he felt a tingling pain all over his eyes, which gradually spread from his waist and abdomen to his heart. He couldn't help but take a breath. It wasn't the pain, but he felt that the movements of those small hands were becoming more cautious, and he sighed in his heart.
The land of humanity and gentleness is the tomb of heroes.
He didn't understand what it meant before, but now, if he could always be treated so gently by Chen Zhuyi, he would be willing to do it even if he got hurt every day.
"Alright." Chen Zhu bandaged him up again, tying a beautiful bow. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "You trust me so much. If I prepare poison for you, what will you do?"
"You won't." Huo Jinzhi's tone was firm, full of pure trust.
The dark eyes reflected Chen Zhuyi's face, filled with cherishment and tenderness, which instantly made her teasing words disappear completely. A blush appeared on her face again: "I'll go outside to ask about the situation, you have a good rest."
