Chapter 679: He’s Here…
The two soldiers knew that it was unsuitable for them to stay beside the sickbed. The political commissar told them that the teachers and the school would take care of the issue so they saluted to the teacher and left.
After they left, Xia Jinyuan came in. As he walked in with his 1.9-meters tall figure, the s.p.a.ce in the infirmary seemed to compress a little.
A familiar smell wafted into her nose. Ye Jian looked up slightly at the man she just shook off. He had come back. For some reason, Ye Jian’s body tensed up when she saw him.
However, she believed that he wouldn’t say anything that would make Ye Ying suspicious.
After what happened today and yesterday, Ye Ying would know that she had changed. This change caused Ye Jian to be ahead of Ye Ying so she would definitely tell Ye Zhifan.
What would Ye Zhifan do when he knew this? He would investigate Ye Jian. He would ask Ye Ying to recall everything she knows about Ye Jian and tell him. He would try to find clues within them.
She wasn’t afraid of Ye Zhifan. Even if he knew her relations.h.i.+p with the military unit, she didn’t mind. She just didn’t want to implicate Xia Jinyuan.
This was a family matter between her and Ye Zhifan. She didn’t want other people to be affected.
She raised her head and looked at him casually. Then, she glanced towards Ye Ying’s direction. She knew that he wouldn’t say anything but she still wanted to remind him.
Xia Jinyuan thought that Ye Jian wouldn’t even look at him. As she did, the corners of his lips moved up slightly. He walked towards Ye Jian and looked at her arm.
It was red and swollen but the injury wasn’t serious.
“Doctor, can I have a bottle of iodine?” He retracted his gaze almost immediately and didn’t probe further. After taking the bottle, he walked over to the military doctor and asked, “There’s only new bottles. Are there any used ones?”
Iodine was commonly used by the soldiers. The military doctor took a half-empty bottle of iodine from the shelf beside him. “This is half-empty. Please take the cotton buds yourself.” Then, the military doctor saw the major patting the shoulders of the female student lightly.
This simple action explained why Ye Jian received that injury. Since Ye Ying was present, Xia Jinyuan couldn’t say everything. He thought that the military doctor might ask Ye Jian about her wound so he came back.
Ye Jian saw his action and understood that he was explaining to the military doctor about her injury.
They were very close to each other. His hand didn’t move for a long time. The heat from his hand pa.s.sed through her clothes to her skin. It felt a little hot.
Ye Jian was sitting upright like a real soldier. She heard Xia Jinyuan’s deep and powerful voice coming from above her head. “This can be used for normal abrasions, right?”
Special Forces soldiers who came from the Xueyu unit knew some medical knowledge. Thus, it was obvious there was a reason why he asked this. Ye Jian knew what his reason was. She pursed her lips.
He stood so close to her and his hand was still on her shoulder. Now, he asked something he already knew. Ye Jian knew his intention but she couldn’t avoid it. The military doctor and Ye Ying were still around. She could only accept it helplessly.
The military doctor didn’t suspect anything. He thought that the major was helping the young lady to ask if she could use iodine to treat her injury after she leaves the military unit. Thus, he smiled and replied, “Of course. There’s no need to be nervous. Young people have a good recovery system so small injuries heal quickly. You can apply iodine on your wound daily.”
