Chapter 20 These are wolves that came following the scent!
Looking into the girl's clear eyes so close to him, and listening to her soft yet coherent words, Lu Zhanming felt an increasingly strong, unfamiliar stirring in his heart.
The moment her fingertips left his wrist, he even felt a pang of reluctance.
His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he gave a low "hmm," but his gaze remained fixed on the object.
Gu Dongguo watched from the sidelines, his teeth aching with urgency; the sense of crisis in his heart had already broken through the ceiling!
Lu Tuan's eyes and attitude are definitely suspicious!
His baby even seriously treats patients!
This silly girl, does she even know what this wolf in front of her is thinking?
Just as the atmosphere in the ward was becoming awkward, and Gu Dongguo was frantically scratching his head, trying to find an excuse to interrupt this dangerous doctor-patient conversation,
"Knock knock knock".
There was a knock on the ward door.
The knocking was neither too loud nor too soft, carrying a hint of probing.
Gu Baobao subconsciously turned her head to look at the door. Gu Dongguo and Lu Zhanming also looked over at the same time.
The door was gently pushed open a crack, and then a face with a simple, honest smile and a slightly nervous expression peeked in.
He was a young soldier, carrying a net bag of canned yellow peaches.
"Commander Gu! We heard your sister is here, so a few of us comrades... came to see you and, by the way... meet our new comrade!"
As the young soldier spoke, his gaze involuntarily drifted towards Gu Baobao.
When she met Gu Baobao's curious gaze, her face flushed red instantly, and she stammered a little.
Behind him were two or three other equally young officers or soldiers, each carrying something in their hands: fruit, canned goods, malted milk powder...
Everyone craned their necks to look inside, their eyes sparkling with obvious curiosity and...excitement?
Gu Dongguo's heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.
Sure enough, the lead soldier pushed open the door, and the others followed him in single file.
The small double room suddenly felt a bit crowded.
When their gazes all fell on Gu Baobao, who was sitting by Lu Zhanming's bed and turned her head at the sound, they were all on her.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment!
The sound of inhalation was clearly audible!
The young men stood frozen in place, as if they had been put on pause, their eyes wide open, mouths slightly agape, forgetting to put down the gifts they were holding.
What did they see?
The afternoon sunlight slanted through the window, and a ray fell precisely on the girl.
She wore simple light blue clothes, and her skin was so white it was almost transparent in the light, with a warm, pearly glow.
Her long hair was tied into a loose braid that hung down her shoulder, with a few stray strands sticking to her smooth forehead.
Her features were exquisitely perfect, but what was most captivating were her eyes, as clear as a mountain spring.
She looked over with a hint of doubt, her long eyelashes fluttering, as if she could see right into one's heart.
They had been skeptical of Xiao Zhou's exaggerated claims, thinking they were somewhat overblown.
But now that I've seen it with my own eyes... that kid Zhou's description was far too conservative!
How is this any better looking than the leading actors of the performing arts troupe?
This isn't even on the same level!
Su Xiaoyu is beautiful, radiant, and a dazzling flower on the stage.
The one before me... is like snow on a mountaintop, like the moon in the forest—pure, clean, and untouched by worldly dust!
A beauty that makes one's heart tremble at first glance, a beauty one dares not desecrate.
In the ward, you could hear a pin drop.
Only the suddenly audible, slightly heavy breathing of a few young men and the uncontrollable pounding of their hearts could be heard.
Good heavens... I've actually seen a living celestial being!
Gu Dongguo looked at his comrades, who had instantly turned to stone, and then at his younger sister's bewildered and innocent face.
Finally, his gaze swept over the hospital bed next to him, where Lu Zhanming's face had visibly darkened, and his eyes were so cold they could drop ice crystals...
He closed his eyes in pain.
It's over.
Now, it's not just a matter of one wolf.
These are wolves that came because they smelled the scent!
Meanwhile, his tender and delicious little cabbage was completely unaware that it had become the focus of the wolves' attention.
She was blinking her big, expressive eyes, looking at the group of uninvited visitors with a puzzled expression!
Gu Dongguo had already heard his grandmother's ancestral, slick rolling pin.
Back in my hometown in Northeast China, thousands of miles away, a buzzing, eager-to-pursue tremor emanated...
The air in the ward is about to be filled with a new storm.
Our little miracle doctor, Gu, is still completely oblivious.
Commander Lu's low-pressure tactics have successfully shifted from single-target attacks to area-of-effect coverage.
The real show has only just begun.
