At the hospital.
Jiang Yue accompanied Yao Hua inside for her check-up.
Lu Jingnian and others outside asked Jiang Zheng, who was beside him.
"How did you end up going to the police station with Lao Yu?"
"Haven't you been staying with Duan Suyao these past two days?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zheng sighed, "I went to the regimental headquarters to complete some formalities today. When I came out, I ran into Lao Yu and Uncle Yu. Uncle Yu told me that Hua Hua had an accident, so I went with them."
"Have you completed all the formalities?" Lu Jingnian then asked.
Jiang Zheng is about to be discharged from the military, and he has been going through the procedures since returning from Kyoto.
However, his situation is more complicated and takes a while.
"No, it will take another month."
After Jiang Zheng finished speaking, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it to his lips before remembering that he was in a hospital. He then pursed his lips and put the cigarette back.
"Have you thought about what you'll do after you leave the military?" Lu Jingnian asked.
After Jiang Zheng retires from the military, they will definitely arrange a job for him, but Lu Jingnian knows Jiang Zheng too well, and he will definitely refuse.
"I haven't decided yet." Jiang Zheng smiled as he said this, "but I want to start my own business."
"I can give you a suggestion."
Lu Jingnian looked at Jiang Zheng and said, "I'll have a good talk with you in a couple of days."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zheng nodded almost without hesitation, "Okay."
Even if Lu Jingnian doesn't say this today, he will find Lu Jingnian in a couple of days. Jiang Zheng has always felt that Lu Jingnian really chose the wrong career. If he hadn't joined the army and had started his own business, no one could have matched him.
After the two finished speaking, Jiang Zheng glanced at Political Commissar Yu, who was standing at the door of the examination room, walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "Hua Hua is fine now."
"Try to think positively. With your qualities, even if you and our Huahua aren't meant to be, you won't have to worry about finding someone to marry you."
His words were like stabbing the political commissar in the heart.
"Hua Hua didn't say she didn't want me."
Commissar Yu glared at Jiang Zheng. He was already so anxious, and this guy was still trying to stab him in the heart. He might as well not be brothers with him anymore.
"If I were Hua Hua, I wouldn't want you."
Jiang Zheng pursed his lips. He didn't mean to stab Lao Yu in the heart. Regardless of what Hua Hua and Lao Yu said at the police station, after leaving the police station, Yao Hua kept pulling Jiang Yue along. Anyone with eyes could see that she was deliberately keeping her distance from Lao Yu.
Moreover, based on Jiang Zheng's understanding of Yao Hua, after such an incident, she definitely wouldn't choose to be with Lao Yu again.
It wasn't that she disliked Lao Yu anymore, nor was she blaming Lao Yu for this incident; rather, she didn't want Lao Yu to become a laughingstock.
"Don't provoke him."
Lu Jingnian walked over and gently patted Political Commissar Yu on the shoulder. "Old Yu, Jiang Zheng didn't mean to provoke you. He just wanted to prepare you mentally."
Jiang Zheng could see Yao Hua's plan, so how could Lao Yu not see it? He just didn't want to admit it.
"I know."
Commissar Yu gritted his teeth, his expression one of extreme pain.
"I promise I'll leave after I take her home."
He can give Yao Hua time, he's willing to wait as long as it takes, but to accept that Yao Hua doesn't want him anymore, I'm sorry, he really can't accept that.
Soon, Jiang Yue helped Yao Hua out of the examination room and said to the three men at the door, "Hua Hua's wounds have been treated, and there are no other problems."
We can go home now.
Political Commissar Yu tried to help Yao Hua up, but Yao Hua clung tightly to Jiang Yue, giving him no chance.
Jiang Yue glanced at Political Commissar Yu standing next to Yao Hua and said, "Political Commissar Yu, it's getting late, there are no more cars for you to go back to the battalion headquarters."
"Come back with us and stay at our house for the night. Return to headquarters tomorrow."
"I……"
Political Commissar Yu looked at Yao Hua, but seeing that she wasn't looking at him, he said dejectedly, "No need, I can find a way back myself."
Yao Hua clearly doesn't want to face him right now.
He can go back first and go to the Jiang family early tomorrow morning.
Hearing his answer, Jiang Yue sighed inwardly, glanced at Yao Hua leaning against her, and continued, "It's so late, and there are no taxis left. How are you going to get home?"
"Let's go home together first. We'll all be worried about you going home alone so late."
The "everyone" she mentioned included Yao Hua.
It was Yao Hua and Jiang Yue who suggested that Political Commissar Yu stay at the Jiang family's house tonight.
Otherwise, Jiang Yue wouldn't have said those things.
Commissar Yu was so focused on Yao Hua that his brain was practically shutting down, and he completely missed the meaning behind Jiang Yue's words, leaving him extremely hesitant.
He definitely wanted to go to the Jiang family's house, because that way he could see Yao Hua a little longer, but he was also afraid that if he really went, Yao Hua would avoid him even more.
Seeing that the political commissar was still hesitating, Lu Jingnian said to him directly, "Don't worry about it. You won't be able to get a taxi at this hour. Just listen to Yueyue and come back with us first."
Lu Jingnian understood the meaning behind Jiang Yue's words.
After returning to the Jiang family home from the hospital, Jiang Yue gave Lu Jingnian a few words of advice and then followed Yao Hua back to her room.
She definitely wouldn't feel comfortable leaving Yao Hua alone tonight.
This way, Lu Jingnian won't have to make up excuses to avoid sleeping with her.
Lu Jingnian stood in the living room, watching Jiang Yue and Yao Hua leave. He pursed his lips and looked at Jiang Zheng and Political Commissar Yu, "Would you two like to come out for a drink with me?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zheng immediately said, "Let's go, I also want to have a drink."
He's been quite troubled lately because of his discharge from the military and Duan Suyao's situation.
After Jiang Zheng finished speaking, he tugged at Political Commissar Yu: "With Yueyue by your side, Huahua will definitely be alright."
