Chapter 334: Listen to Little Zi
Since they had found the people, Y Base had directly dispatched helicopters to fetch them back.
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye sat there and looked at Dou Xiangling, who was standing outside the operating room, while she paced around in anxiety. Zi Yi called out to her. “Cousin.”
Only then did Dou Xiangling turn around and look at her.
Zi Yi stood up and went over to her side and pulled her down to take a seat. She then put the warm water Lu Jingye had prepared in her hands and said, “Cousin, there’s no use worrying. Take a rest first.”
Dou Xiangling nodded and lowered her head to take a sip of water.
Zi Yi said, “Cousin, I’ll be returning to XX Base shortly. Do you want to go back with me?” She was worried about Feihu.
Dou Xiangling shook her head and said, “Teacher Zhang got injured because he was trying to save me. I cannot leave right now.”
Zi Yi thought for a moment and decided to ask, “Cousin, what exactly happened?”
Dou Xiangling briefly explained to her the situation back then. “A few students were frightened by the wild animals and ran outside the base. Teacher Zhang and I went out to search for them. However, the moment we came outside, we encountered a large wave of wild animals.
Everyone was frightened at that time and I originally wanted to run back to the base. However, I didn’t expect to run in the wrong direction out of panic and encountered a landslide following that. At that time, I accidentally met with a small landslide and Teacher Zhang broke his leg in order to hold onto me.”
Speaking of this, Dou Xiangling lowered her head and she looked at the cup of water as she fell into a trance.
Zi Yi looked at her and opened her mouth. She originally thought about saying something, but she swallowed the words that came to her in the end.
Just then, Dou Xiangling recalled something. “Yiyi, today seems to be your birthday?”
Dou Xiangling nodded her head in realization and revealed an apologetic expression. “How could I have forgotten about this.”
“Cousin, this isn’t important.”
“How could it be unimportant?”
Dou Xiangling hastily put the cup of water by the chair and held onto her hand. With an expression of chagrin and regret, she said, “Yiyi, I originally planned to celebrate your birthday with you by your side today. I didn’t expect…”
Speaking up to here, she looked towards Lu Jingye and guessed. “Mr. Lu is here to celebrate your birthday with you?”
Zi Yi glanced at Lu Jingye sitting next to her and responded with a yes.
Dou Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief. “After everything ends, I’ll pay you back a birthday celebration.”
Zi Yi nodded. “Okay.”
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye left the Y Base very quickly. When they returned to the military dog training camp in XX Base, the downpour that continued for several days had finally stopped and the skies cleared up.
At that moment, Instructor Li and Li Xia were squatting in the yard and no one talked.
Instructor Li looked calm, but the rim of his eyes was reddish, while Li Xia was wiping her tears that fell out.
When they saw Zi Yi and Lu Jingye making their way over, they stood up together.
Zi Yi hastily asked, “How’s Feihu?”
Instructor Li and Li Xia looked towards Lu Jingye at the same time, and they were shocked by his n.o.ble and imposing aura.
Instructor Li did not ask anything and merely told her. “The operation has been ongoing for several hours but there doesn’t seem to be any signs of them coming out.”
The military training base had an operating room specially built. After they fetched Feihu back, they entered the operating room and had been inside since then.
Zi Yi took a step forward and headed inside. “I’ll go and take a look.”
Instructor Li called out to her. “Student Zi, don’t be anxious. Let’s wait some more.”
Zi Yi furrowed her brows.
Just then, Lu Jingye walked to her side and said, “Let her go in.”
Instructor Li was actually stunned by Lu Jingye’s aura. Before he managed to speak out, Zi Yi had already walked inside.
Li Xia stood by and dared not utter a single word.
Lu Jingye explained. “Yiyi knows medicine.”
Instructor Li looked at him and moved his mouth, but he did not know what he could say at that moment.
It just so happens that Leader Zhang and a few other leaders had arrived at this time.
When Leader Zhang saw Lu Jingye, he was also momentarily surprised. He walked over in large strides and asked, “Little Lu, where’s Little Zi?”
“She went in.”
Leader Zhang was just about to say something and Lu Jingye repeated himself. “She knows medicine.”
Leader Zhang thought about Zi Yi’s capabilities and swallowed the words he was about to say.
However, Lu Jingye was not from the base and he had to give everyone an explanation for his sudden arrival. Thus, he said, “I know you’re worried about Little Zi as her family member, but you can rest a.s.sured that since the child has been sent to my place…”
Lu Jingye suddenly tilted his head and looked at him.
Leader Zhang suddenly could not continue speaking.
He thought of his previous promise to him and said wryly, “Little Zi is someone who places importance on loyalty. I heard that her cousin was trapped in the mountain and she insisted on going there herself. Was there anything I could do?”
He tried to push the blame off of himself as much as possible. If the G.o.d of Wealth says that he would cancel the supply of precision equipment for their base, where could he possibly find help?
Lu Jingye looked away and s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the operating room as he said to Leader Zhang, “Little Zi went in to help. They will definitely chase her out. Go and say something.”
Leader Zhang stiffened for a moment. Under the gazes of everyone else, he started walking inside the operating room.
Zi Yi walked inside the operating room and knocked on the door before she directly opened the door and went in.
At that moment, Feihu’s breathing was barely perceptible as he lay on the operating table while several doctors were operating on him.
Everyone turned to look in her direction with the sound of the doors opening.
When they saw it was a young girl who walked in, one of them rudely said, “Student, please go out.”
Zi Yi stood by the door and looked at Feihu’s condition. “I’m here to help.”
“You’re unable to help.”
Zi Yi’s expression was taut. She talked about Feihu’s current condition and said, “With how you’re connecting its bones, even if he can walk in the future, he would be unable to stay in the training camp. Feihu is still young and he does not wish to leave now.”
Her words caused the expressions of several doctors to sink.
It was considered good if they could even connect Feihu’s legs. Yet, the student standing by the door was so arrogant and even said she could let Feihu remain!
Just then, Leader Zhang’s voice, which did not seem to accept any forms of rejection, sounded. “Let Little Zi partake.”
Everyone looked at Leader Zhang and the attending doctor furrowed his brow as he said with a dark expression, “Leader Zhang, this operation is not a joke. ”
Leader Zhang also had a dark expression on his face. “I know.”
He then looked at Zi Yi. “Student Zi, are you able to guarantee that you’ll be able to cure Feihu’s legs?”
“Yes. I won’t be the one operating. It would do as long as they cooperate.”
Her words infuriated the doctors even more. In the training camp. They were capable of treating both humans and dogs and their medical skills were much better than those of ordinary doctors. Yet, they still needed an outsider to teach them how to operate?
No matter how they heard it, it sounded like a joke.
Leader Zhang knew the thoughts of those doctors. He then thought of Lu Jingye standing outside and said with a stern expression, “Listen to her.”
Having said that, he remained there without moving a single inch.
“This is an order.”
Even though the doctors were uncomfortable deep down, orders from the higher-ups could not be gone against. They could only swallow their anger and listened to Zi Yi as they continued with the operation.
However, a while later…
The group of doctors who were originally unwilling had all gathered their attention.
A few hours later, the operation ended and the attending doctor came over to Zi Yi as he asked excitedly, “Student Zi, did you study veterinary medicine in the past?”
Zi Yi nodded, “Yes.”
“For real? That’s what I thought too! Let’s go and discuss how we can have Feihu recover better after the operation!”
