Jiang Jingxue used a small coffee table as a table and immediately wrote three or four prescriptions, instructing her adjutant Chen to fetch the medicine right away.
"It's still early today, let me prepare a medicinal bath for you first." His leg needs to be treated as soon as possible.
Deputy Chen acted swiftly.
Half an hour later, a large wooden tub was brought in, filled with dark medicinal bath liquid. The strong, dark smell made everyone in the ward hold their breath.
Jiang Jingxue reached out and touched it.
Then he leaned closer and took a good sniff.
"You go out first, I'll take care of things here," she instructed her adjutant, Chen, who was standing beside her.
Lieutenant Chen hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping himself. Such matters of conduct between men and women had been strictly cracked down on since the founding of the People's Republic, yet this Miss Jiang was, in a sense, the major's wife…

Her snow-white, delicate hands hurriedly plunged into the appropriately warm medicine. Her hands couldn't keep up with her eyes, and she could only watch helplessly as the bag sank deeper and deeper, but her fingers seemed to touch something else.
Gu Pingwei isn't the kind of person who would keep his weapons with him even while taking a bath, is he?
Jiang Jingxue looked up suspiciously, only to see the man staring at her with eyes that looked like a wolf that had been starving for many years, its gaze eerily green!
The woman's smile suddenly stiffened.
This, this...
Just then, the ward door was suddenly pushed open.
"Pingwei, your mother asked me to come and take a look at your illness..."
