The villagers got busy again.
This time, no one spoke.
Before Ma Lao Er could say anything more, he was dragged away by the people arranged by the village chief.
Jiang Linchuan released Xu Xinghe's hand, pursed his lips, and couldn't help but say, "Don't hold hands in front of so many people next time."
He didn't shake him off at the time because he wanted to give Xu Xinghe strength, and also to show the villagers what he was doing.
The situation in China is not as open as in other countries, and it's not even as good as the scenes in foreign movies. We should be more careful in our daily lives, otherwise it will damage Xu Xinghe's reputation.
Xu Xinghe muttered under her breath, "Tch, why didn't you say anything when you held my hand in front of so many people at the military headquarters?"
Jiang Linchuan wanted to explain, but she waved her hand and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's hurry up and harvest. We don't have much time left."
"Um."
He strode away and returned to the area he was responsible for.
Seeing that he didn't intend to cause trouble for Ma Lao Er, Lieutenant Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed, "Commander Jiang, don't take Ma Lao Er to heart. He may have said some harsh things, but I don't think Miss Xu took it to heart. So don't be angry."
Jiang Linchuan paused.
He refrained from attacking Ma Lao Er on the spot because he was considering the bigger picture, but that doesn't mean he would let him off the hook.
The term "stinky woman" should never be used to describe Xu Xinghe.
All insults are unacceptable.
He kept working without stopping, but he had already made up his mind that he would make Ma Lao Er pay the price tonight.
He didn't care whether outsiders would have doubts.
As long as the other party cannot find evidence, it will not affect him.
Outsiders only see his rigid and dogmatic side, but they don't know that when he is on a mission, he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals and serve the national interest.
From beginning to end, he was not a truly good person.
Another group of people arrived at Hongxing Village.
The one leading them was Lian Xiao.
He went to town today and just got back. When he heard about the harvest rush, he rushed over.
Next to him was Li Xingzhou, who had just finished get off work.
Several nurses followed behind the two; they had all volunteered to help.
The nurses surrounded Li Xingzhou, chattering incessantly, their faces flushed; anyone could tell what they were thinking.
Lian Xiao despised such hypocrites the most, and snorted coldly, "I heard that Dr. Li is not in good spirits. I think you should go back, so that if he has an attack, we won't have to worry about you."
Li Xingzhou stiffened, his eyes behind his glasses turning extremely gloomy, but he quickly masked it and smiled again. "Captain Lian probably doesn't know that I wasn't mentally ill that day, but rather that I had a temporary hallucination because I took an allergy medication. As long as I don't take that kind of medication again, there won't be any problems."
After saying that, he gripped the first-aid kit tightly, his lowered eyes once again covered by coldness. "And I have to be here to keep an eye on things, so that if anyone gets hurt, I can treat them in time."
That day, he was forcibly taken to the hospital by several soldiers, and it was only under the influence of sedatives that he calmed down.
When he woke up, the hospital director, who had initially thought highly of him, directly asked him if he really had a mental illness and implied that he should return to Shanghai for treatment.
As a doctor, if I am a mental patient myself, how can I guarantee the safety of my patients?
Li Xingzhou feigned a drug allergy to induce hallucinations and then showed off his pharmacological knowledge learned from foreign materials, which finally allowed him to barely pass the test.
But he could sense that the hospital director and the other staff members were secretly watching him.
If he develops any more mental health issues, he probably won't be able to stay in the hospital. Even if he does, he won't be able to treat patients as freely as before, let alone get promoted or gain experience.
As for these young nurses, they were all very young, and they believed him after he said just a few words. They treated him as before.
The nurses all turned to look at Lian Xiao. The girl in the lead was very dissatisfied. "Captain Lian, you can't just go out and do a mission, make a contribution, and get promoted to squad leader, so you can slander Dr. Li at will. He doesn't have a mental illness, he just has an allergy. If your words get out, what kind of trouble will it cause Dr. Li if people misunderstand? Have you thought about that?"
Lian Xiao scoffed dismissively, "You believe him just because he says he has an allergy?"
The nurse wanted to say more, but he had already strode forward, too lazy to waste any more words.
Lian Xiao dislikes people who lack common sense and doesn't want to have anything to do with them, fearing that it will lower his own IQ.
He hadn't walked more than a few steps when he saw Xu Xinghe.
There was no way around it; she was just too conspicuous.
Even though she had changed into the most ordinary clothes for work, and even got a lot of mud on her face, and even had a black mark on her cheek, she was still so beautiful that people would turn their heads to look at her.
Xu Xinghe didn't care about her disheveled appearance at all. Ignoring who was talking beside her, she gave a faint smile. Her rosy cheeks made the black mark even more obvious, but it didn't diminish her spiritual energy at all. On the contrary, it made her even more radiant, exuding an enviable vitality.
It looks like a sunflower.
Lian Xiao paused slightly, then quickened his pace and came up to Xu Xinghe. "What's wrong with you? If you can't do it, then don't. You look like a little kitten."
Xu Xinghe was displeased upon hearing this and proudly pointed to the bamboo basket on the ground, "I did all of this myself. Don't look down on women."
“I’m not looking down on women, I’m looking down on you. You have such delicate skin, you might get hurt.” Lian Xiao noticed the ill-fitting gloves on her hands, and as if remembering something, he suddenly felt a little depressed. “Fine, I’m not going to bother with you anymore. Do it if you want to.”
He didn't know where his anger came from, but the thought that Xu Xinghe was now Jiang Linchuan's fiancée made him inexplicably uncomfortable.
Xu Xinghe frowned slightly as she watched his retreating figure. What did this guy mean by suddenly giving her such a cold shoulder?
However, she didn't take it to heart; Lian Xiao's appearance when they first met was still fresh in her mind.
This is also a young master who was spoiled since childhood, so it's normal for him to have a bit of a temper.
Li Xingzhou stood not far away, silently watching Xu Xinghe.
He recalled the steamed buns he was forced to eat in the cafeteria that day.
So, was it Xu Xinghe who administered the drug?
He drugged her once, so she wants to get it back?
But what kind of medicine is that?
He had never experienced such a realistic hallucination before, and no problems could be found in the examination.
However... it is rather interesting.
Li Xingzhou is now even more interested in Xu Xinghe. Where did this rich young lady who knows nothing get this kind of medicine from?
She has not only changed, but has also become more mysterious, so mysterious that people can't help but want to find out more.
Xu Xinghe also saw him, cursed his bad luck under his breath, and immediately turned around and went to another piece of land.
The harvest here is almost done, so it's time to go help out in other places.
Li Xingzhou watched her retreating figure, remaining silent for a long time.
The nurse next to him couldn't help but speak up, "Dr. Li, where should we go to help?"
Li Xingzhou came to his senses and said, "Let's go over there."
The direction he pointed in was exactly where Xu Xinghe had gone.
