The coat is a navy yellow work jacket.
There was a thumb-sized stainless steel badge on his chest with a name in red letters on a white background.
Wait, a name!
Meng Zhen was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes and confirmed the name on the work badge again: Liu Yuzhou.
Isn't this the name of the male protagonist in the period novel I read last night?!
It turns out that I didn’t just travel through time, but I traveled through a book!
Could that man just now be the male protagonist himself?
Anyway, his appearance and temperament are exactly the same as the male protagonist described in the book.
Before she could verify her guess, the curtain of the clinic was opened with a rustle, and a gentle female voice came: "It's okay if you wake up. Just take a bath to get rid of the cold."
A female doctor in a white coat walked in, walked forward, but her eyes were directed at the person behind her.
Meng Zhen then saw Liu Yuzhou following in.
Only then did I discover that there was a long cut on the side of his arm, and blood was oozing out along the wound.
He must have been scratched by a rock in the river when he was rescuing her.
The shallows of the river dam were rocky and she was hit several times when she rushed down from upstream.
Her eyes fell on the man's injured arm again, and she felt a little guilty.
The female doctor's inquiring gaze moved back and forth between the two of them, finally stopping on the work jacket Meng Zhen was wearing.
A trace of doubt arose in my mind. Captain Liu never let others touch his things, so why did he give his coat to this female comrade now?
Meng Zhen was also looking at the female doctor.
Thinking of the original book, where the protagonist's ex-wife was a doctor at the clinic, she tentatively asked, "Hello, doctor, what's your name?"
"My name is Zhang Xue."
After saying that, he took out a mercury thermometer from his breast pocket, shook it vigorously a few times, and warned her, "Put it under your armpit and hold it tightly. Be careful not to drop it."
Meng Zhen took it and clamped it as required, but his heart couldn't help beating wildly.
The person in front of you is the ex-wife of the male protagonist of the original book!
The paper people in the book suddenly appeared in reality one by one, and she was shocked.
"Comrade, can you give me the thermometer?"
Zhang Xue waved her hand in front of her eyes, trying to get her attention back.
Meng Zhen came back to his senses, put away his wandering thoughts, and quickly handed over the thermometer under his armpit.
"37.5 degrees, a low-grade fever, nothing serious."
Zhang Xue held up the thermometer and turned it towards the light, her tone gentle.
He pointed to the row of low grey houses outside the window and said, "That's the engineering team's bathhouse. Captain Liu just told them to go there. No one's using it right now. Go take a hot bath."
"Thank you, comrade."
Meng Zhen felt a little warmer in his heart. It turned out that the man suddenly disappeared because he went to the bathhouse to say hello.
I didn't expect that although he looks a little fierce, he is actually very considerate.
At the same time, she noticed that Zhang Xue used to address him as "Captain Liu", so the two of them might not be husband and wife yet.
For some reason, she felt a little relieved.
But now she faces a new problem: she has no clothes to change into.
In the end, he had no choice but to ask Zhang Xue for help.
Zhang Xue simply took out a hospital gown and gave it to her, saying:
"They've just been distributed, and no one has worn them yet. Return them as soon as your clothes are dry. The clinic only has two sets."
In those days, people were short of food and clothing, so a single piece of clothing could be worn for years. Families with many children could even have one piece of clothing for four or five children.
Meng Zhen was lucky to have arrived at the site just as the geological team was stationed. Aside from a shortage of food, all other supplies were prioritized for the team members.
As Meng Zhen was leaving with his clothes in his arms, he could vaguely hear Zhang Xue's softer voice inside the house: "Captain Liu, I'll help you with your wound..."
Thinking about the plot of the original book, Meng Zhen understood. No wonder he agreed to lend her a change of clothes so readily. It turned out he was just playing tricks on her.
However, the male protagonist's appearance is indeed attractive. Even though she has seen so many top stars in the entertainment industry and beauty bloggers in later lives, she really can't find many who are more handsome than him.
Even if a man is as cold and hard as a rock, there are still many women who want to date him.
Meng Zhen was still recalling the plot of the original book while taking a bath.
She just flipped through it last night and didn't notice many details.
But for some reason, she always had a strange feeling in her heart when she thought of Zhang Xue and the male protagonist being alone in the same space.
Without bothering to carefully examine her own psychology, she quickly took a shower and went back to the clinic.
In the clinic, Zhang Xue was fiddling with the injections in the medicine box with her head down. The transparent injection bottles collided with each other, making crisp tinkling sounds.
After finally choosing the injection she wanted, she looked up at the person next to her and said, "Captain Liu, you need to get another shot of anti-inflammatory medicine, otherwise the wound will easily get infected."
Liu Yuzhou sat on a wooden chair with a cold expression. The wound on his left arm had been bandaged. When he heard Zhang Xue's words, his eyes swept towards Meng Zhen who came in after lifting the curtain, and he said "hmm" nonchalantly.
Zhang Xue followed his gaze.
The girl, after taking a bath, had long hair draped over her shoulders, snow-white skin, and facial features so beautiful that it took one's breath away.
A hint of complexity flashed in her eyes.
The girl was in a mess just now and she didn't feel any threat to herself, but now, a sense of crisis quietly came over her.
"Wait a moment, I'll go inside and prepare the medicine."
Suppressing her emotions, Zhang Xue calmly picked up the iron plate with the injections on the table and turned to go to another room.
There were only two people left in the main room.
Liu Yuzhou raised his eyes and looked at the girl standing opposite him.
Her long, slightly curly hair hung down her back, and her cheeks lost their paleness, becoming more rosy.
Black hair, red lips, almond eyes and dark eyebrows.
