Qi Zecheng simply stood to the side and walked over to glance at Xie Zhiyan.
His eyes were closed, his arm was wrapped in gauze, and the wound on his head had been treated.
He knew Xie Zhiyan was injured, but he didn't expect the injury to be so serious.
Seeing Shu Ying beside him, Qi Zecheng instinctively frowned.
If it weren't for her, Xie Zhiyan would have gone to the hospital for treatment immediately, and wouldn't have encountered a train collision on the way back.
Such a strange and bizarre thing could happen to Xie Zhiyan.
Qi Zecheng was a staunch materialist, but from Xie Zhiyan's perspective, he couldn't help but wonder if Shu Ying really had no positive influence on him.
But seeing that Shu Ying was taking care of someone, Qi Zecheng held back the words he was about to say.
Seeing Xie Zhiyan's appearance, he couldn't help but feel angry, and his anger suppressed his reason.
The words he spoke at that moment were harsh, and he didn't want to take his anger out on Shu Ying.
Qi Zecheng took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
Xie Zhiyan has gone to great lengths this time. When he learned that something had happened to Shu Ying's family, he immediately asked her to come and join the army.
He was deeply affectionate and loyal, but Shu Ying might not have been.
Although she did not remarry, she had never written a single letter over the years, nor had she ever stood firm in her stance. She had never done anything for Xie Zhiyan.
In their relationship, Xie Zhiyan was always the one making the effort.
Shu Ying is always aloof and superior, and now that something has happened, she comes to Xie Zhiyan immediately.
Qi Zecheng didn't want to comment on her behavior.
Shu Ying glanced at Wang Zhande: "The doctor said we can feed him some liquid food. You've come at just the right time. You can watch over him for a while while I go out and see if there are any suitable tools. Feeding him directly isn't very efficient."
Wang Zhande agreed: "Sister-in-law, go quickly, I'll stay here and keep watch."
Shu Ying glanced at Qi Zecheng out of the corner of her eye, nodded slightly, and did not say hello.
Wang Zhande tucked Xie Zhiyan in: "Brother Cheng, if you ask me, you shouldn't have such a big problem with your wife. The leader and your wife are husband and wife. People say that husband and wife are one. The leader is willing to drag his disabled and sick body to find your wife. This is his own decision. Neither you nor I could persuade him to stay. Maybe your wife doesn't even know. If she did know, she would definitely feel sorry for him."
Qi Zecheng sat on the sofa, looking at him with a hint of disappointment.
"Xie Zhiyan almost had to lie there and turn to ashes to receive a first-class merit award. Now, because of this woman, his promotion has been put on hold. I don't know what this idiot is thinking. I think he's been blinded by greed and blinded by beauty. Is it really worth it?"
Wang Zhande grinned: "I don't know, but if I ever meet the girl I love, I'll definitely be willing to do anything for her. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters. There's no question of whether it's worth it or not. People only weigh the pros and cons when there's a benefit involved, but how can you calculate feelings based on benefits?"
Qi Zecheng was speechless: "Go away, you can't reason with this blockhead. Sooner or later you'll fall for a woman."
Shu Ying was away for a short time. She found a hollow ceramic straw stick in her space, and then sanded it to make it into a straw cup similar to those in ancient times, so that she could easily feed Xie Zhiyan water.
"I only have one younger brother. He was perfectly fine when he left, but how did he come back like this? You fool, you treated him with all your heart, but he might not have appreciated it! Waaaaah!"
Just as Shu Ying was about to push open the door, she heard a soft, delicate voice coming from inside.
She recognized the voice; it belonged to Xie Zhiyan's older sister, Xie Wanying.
Shu Ying paused on the doorknob, surprised to find her there as well.
Shu Ying vaguely remembers that Xie Zhiyan's parents worked at the research base.
Xie Wanying used to work in a factory, so why is she in the army now?
Shu Ying gently pushed open the door and went in. Upon seeing who it was, Xie Wanying immediately squeezed out two tears, her face bearing a forced smile.
“Shuying, none of us wanted this to happen. Although Zhiyan had the accident while looking for you, I believe you didn’t do it on purpose. Your parents and I won’t blame you.”
Her words were clearly loaded with meaning, which made Shu Ying uncomfortable.
"I don't quite understand what you mean. What do you mean I didn't do it on purpose?"
Shu Ying chuckled lightly, her face showing little concern, but her words became more serious: "If people didn't know better, they would think I was the one who crashed the train. Although Xie Zhiyan's injury is indeed related to me, was it me who prevented him from going to the hospital for treatment? Was it me who made him come to us with his illness?"
Xie Wanying was speechless. She glanced to the side and said, "I... I didn't mean that. I just said that if Zhiyan hadn't been in such a hurry to find you, he wouldn't have run into this. Now the doctor says he won't wake up for a while, and as his older sister, I'm just worried."
Shu Ying closed the door, her face still displaying a polite smile, but her gaze had become even colder.
She didn't really like Xie Wanying to begin with, and their first meeting wasn't exactly harmonious.
Logically speaking, a child raised by highly educated individuals like Xie's parents should be as polite and well-mannered as Xie Zhiyan.
Xie Wanying always had a petty air about her; she couldn't stand seeing others do well, yet she always put on an air of superiority.
“If you’re really in a hurry, you should find a better doctor to treat him instead of making sarcastic remarks here. I think your so-called concern is just empty talk. Although I don’t know why you’re here, I can tell you that you can’t help at all.”
Qi Zecheng vaguely sensed the tension. They say three women make a drama, but two women were equally unwilling to give in to each other.
He looked at Shu Ying again; she had always been this unforgiving and argumentative since they met.
However, it's not appropriate for a grown man like him to intrude on a conversation between women.
Xie Wanying was almost in tears after being refuted by Shu Ying in just a few words.
She always liked to act coquettishly, and when she spoke, it was as if she had a piece of candy in her mouth: "Shuying, what do you mean by saying that? If it weren't for you, how could my brother have become like this? As your sister-in-law, I kindly advised you, but you turned around and bit me. You really are a daughter raised by capitalists. Not only do you not know how to be considerate of others, but you also always think that others have ulterior motives."
Her slender finger pointed at Xie Zhiyan, who was still lying on the hospital bed, and she questioned loudly, "You dare to say that my brother lying here has nothing to do with you? The doctor says he may not wake up for a while. How can I, as his older sister, not be worried? If he can only lie here forever, who will take responsibility for the rest of his life?"
