Chapter 14 Injured



My leg is cramping.

After lifting Ji Dongdong up, Shi Qi endured the severe pain and continued to swim towards the shore.

Li Zhu, the soldier who jumped into the water behind them, swam to their side.

Shi Qi handed Ji Dongdong to him and said quickly:

"The child is choking on water, hurry to the shore and perform CPR."

Li Zhu understood what she meant, nodded immediately, and swam quickly to the shore with the child.

Li Zhu exercises every day in the army, and his physical fitness is countless times better than that of his original owner who was lazy and ate at home all day.

If it weren't for Shi Qi's excellent swimming skills, he would not be able to keep up with Li Zhu's speed on his return journey.

Even so, when she swam back, she was behind Li Zhu and tried her best, but she was still far behind him.

As they approached the shore, Shi Qi became exhausted and could no longer swim, and his face began to turn pale.

Seeing this, the sharp-eyed military wife shouted to the people nearby to pull her up, and quickly jumped into the pond to pull her ashore.

After Li Zhu carried Ji Dongdong ashore, a large group of military wives immediately surrounded him.

Jiang Ling even rolled and crawled to check Ji Dongdong's breath.

Unable to find out how to vent the child's anger, Jiang Ling was completely stunned. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

There was a sudden scream on the shore.

Shi Qi endured the pain in his legs and walked forward with gritted teeth. He saw that Li Shi had already laid the child down and was quickly cleaning the foreign objects from Ji Dongdong's mouth and nose.

When she found that Li Zhu was following the correct procedure to save people, she did not go forward to interrupt him.

Artificial respiration, chest compressions, everyone around stared at Li Shi's movements and dared not make a sound.

For five or six long minutes, everyone present was heartbroken.

It was not until the child coughed that everyone finally let go of their worries.

As Ji Dongdong opened his eyes, Shi Qi's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

Ji Dongdong spat out four or five mouthfuls of dirty water.

When he opened his eyes and saw so many people surrounding him, he was so scared that he burst into tears and kept calling for his mother.

Tears washed away the mud, leaving black marks on his little face, and because his throat had just choked on water, his crying voice was hoarse.

Jiang Ling woke up and heard her son crying. She rushed over, hugged the child and cried with regret.

Shi Qi felt a sharp pain in his head, and he looked at Jiang Ling and said:

"Sister-in-law, the child just woke up. You'd better take him to the hospital."

There is a health center nearby. Shi Qi was worried, so he told Jiang Ling to go to the hospital.

When the other military wives heard this, they echoed:

"Yes, yes, Jiang Ling, please stop crying. The child just died. His lungs might be soaked with water. Take him to the city hospital right away."

Jiang Ling was crying so hard that her face was red. When everyone reminded her, she started to get nervous again and ran out with her child in her arms.

Other military wives ran after them to help, and a large group of people dispersed.

The little boy who started crying while sitting on the shore was also taken back by his mother for questioning.

Shi Qi wrung the water out of his clothes, thankful that he was wearing a shirt and pants today.

Otherwise, all of them would be gone after this trip.

There were not many people left by the pond, and Li Zhu, who had just taken the child from Shi Qi, was still there.

When Li Zhu found her wringing clothes, he immediately turned around, grabbed his vest and walked into the yard.

We are all in the same military family compound, so we should avoid suspicion when necessary.

Now, there were only a few military wives watching the fun by the pond.

Seeing Shi Qi in such a mess, the military wives rarely gave him a good look:

"Sister Shi, hurry back and take a shower and change into clean clothes. Be careful not to catch a cold."

Another military wife took over:

"Yes, thanks to you today. If you hadn't pulled Ji Dongdong out in time, something terrible would have happened."

"Nothing, I just happened to be passing by.

Sisters-in-law, I'm leaving first."

Feeling sticky and uncomfortable, Shi Qi smiled and responded twice, without talking to anyone for long, he ran home quickly.

Got home, just a little better.

Gu Chijin was hungry and was about to cook while dragging his injured leg.

Seeing her coming back soaking wet and covered in black mud, he frowned subconsciously: "Did you fall into the river?"

Their house was far from the pond, and although there was a lot of commotion over there, Gu Chijin didn't hear a single sound.

Shi Qi went into the bathroom to wash his hands. When he came over to boil some water, he mumbled, "Something happened just now, so I went down to the pond."

Gu Chijin stared at her in confusion.

The pond outside the military family compound was specially opened up a few years ago to grow lotus roots.

Why did she go to the pond for no reason?

Could it be that if you want to eat lotus roots, you should go to the pond to catch them?

But it is clearly not the season for harvesting lotus roots.

Before Gu Chijin could figure it out, Shi Qi had already walked up to him:

"Please move aside. I'll boil some water and take a bath. I'll cook after that."

Seeing the man standing there without moving, she frowned.

"If you're hungry, just take an apple from the backpack.

I went to town yesterday and bought it just for you, but I forgot to tell you when I left this morning."

As he spoke, Shi Qi walked over Gu Chijin and started to boil water in a kettle.

Gu Chijin was a germaphobe. When he smelled the stench of mud on her body, he stepped back in disgust and made room for her.

Shi Qi didn't notice when Gu Chijin left the kitchen. He found some clean clothes and put them in the bathroom, and turned on the water.

His body was covered in mud, and there was duckweed from the pond clinging to his pants.

After touching his hair, Shi Qi was afraid that the water was not enough to wash it clean, so he carried another bucket of water into the bathroom and closed the door.

There was a small window above the toilet. She raised her hand to open the window, letting the cool breeze in, and then began to take off her clothes.

Gu Chijin ate an apple, listened to the sound of water splashing in the toilet, and touched his nose awkwardly.

That's strange.

In the past, when this woman showed her affection and asked for sex with him, he didn't respond.

Right now, just hearing the sound of bath water makes me feel ashamed of eavesdropping on other people's privacy.

What the hell.

After washing his hair, Shi Qi straightened up and looked at himself in the small mirror. He made sure that it was clean before taking the soap and continuing to shower.
