Chapter 626: There's something going on between them.

Lu Ye and Bai Zhi lingered in the county town for a while, and it was already evening when they returned home.

When we arrived at Wang Yumei's house, it was quiet, and it seemed that no one was home.

Bai Zhi asked Lu Ye, "Is Company Commander Zhou seriously injured?"

Lu Ye replied, "It's not very serious. The bullet went through the flesh but didn't hit the bone. He'll be fine after the surgery and some rest."

Although Lu Ye described it casually, as if it were just a minor scrape, Bai Zhi's heart clenched upon hearing it.

For these soldiers, bullets piercing through flesh were a trivial matter.

She looked at Lu Ye with mixed feelings and couldn't help but sigh.

"Your job is too dangerous. Every time you go out, someone gets injured."

Last time it was Ye Qingbai, and this time it's Company Commander Zhou.

This made Bai Zhi very uneasy.

She looked at the man in front of her, her heart heavy. To put it bluntly, she didn't know when he would get hurt again, or even lose his life.

Looking at his wife's somber face, Lu Ye patted her head and comforted her in a light tone, "It was all an accident. They were just too careless."

"Bullets have no eyes; you can't dodge them even if you're careful."

This was by no means an accident.

No matter how careful you are, you can't avoid getting hurt when you're in a dangerous situation.

"You're a deputy battalion commander now, are you going to keep going on missions?" Bai Zhi asked, leaning against him.

As a deputy battalion commander, who is supposed to be in a management position, why is he frequently sent on missions?

"No, occasionally."

Lu Ye looked at her and chuckled, "Don't overthink it, it's okay. This is normal work. People sometimes fall down on the street."

Bai Zhi was speechless. "Look at what you're saying, how can those be the same?"

Regardless, Lu Ye's safe return this time has put her mind at ease for the time being.

Lu Ye rested for one day and went back to work the next morning.

Bai Zhi has nothing to do today, so she plans to stay home and organize some prescriptions.

Around noon, I ran into Wang Yumei outside the door. She was coming back from the hospital to pick up some things.

Because of what Wang Yumei said yesterday morning, Bai Zhi completely lost any goodwill towards this person.

To put it bluntly, she's selfish.

When Wang Yumei saw Bai Zhi, she greeted her again, "Dr. Bai, you didn't go out?"

"Yeah, I didn't go out."

Bai Zhi casually asked, "How is Company Commander Zhou?"

"The doctor said it was a superficial injury, and I can go home to recover after a few days of rest."

Judging from Wang Yumei's expression, Zhou Jianmin's injuries should not be serious.

Before entering the room, she couldn't resist asking Bai Zhi some gossip, "Dr. Bai, is your cousin dating that Dr. Shen?"

Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow after hearing her words, "Who told you that?"

Wang Yumei explained, "I saw them eating in the hospital cafeteria together, and they were behaving quite intimately. I guess they must be dating."

"Maybe, I'm not sure."

Even outsiders can see that something's wrong between them, so perhaps the two of them really are...

Although Bai Zhi said this, she was already convinced that the two of them were probably really going to have a relationship, and she was very happy to see this result.

If Ye Qingbo and Shen Qian can really be together, she sincerely wishes them well.

They are both people who take relationships very seriously.

I liked people I shouldn't have liked before, and I suffered for so long without getting any response.

They should go see other sights.

........

Ye Qingbai called Bai Zhi over the weekend, saying he wanted to come over for dinner.

Bai Zhi asked with a smile, "Cousin, are you alone? Is Chen Qian coming? I'm not cooking if she doesn't come."

"Then ask her, how am I supposed to know if she's coming or not?"

Bai Zhi spoke forcefully, directly giving him the task, "I'm just asking you, can you bring her home for dinner? If she doesn't come, you shouldn't come either."

"you……"

Bai Zhi hung up the phone; she knew Ye Qingbai would definitely come.

So, let's go grocery shopping happily.

She's practically family to Ye Qingbai, so he's bringing his future girlfriend home. She has to treat her like family.

Be a great wingman.

This made Shen Qian feel valued.

She's been so busy lately that she hasn't cooked a proper meal at home in a long time, so she's going to have some fun with everyone today.

Once her clinic opens in a few days, there won't be as much time for family gatherings at home.

While she was preparing the fish after buying groceries, someone knocked on the door.

When Bai Zhi saw the two people appear at the door, she feigned surprise, "Oh my, what brings you two here together?"

Ye Qingbai, however, bluntly exposed his mistake, "Didn't you tell me to ask Shen Qian to come along?"

Bai Zhi rolled her eyes.

"Come in quickly."

"Xiao Zhi, what are you cooking?" Ye Qingbai went to the kitchen first.

His favorite thing to do every week was to come to Bai Zhi's house for a free meal.

Bai Zhi replied,

"I'll stir-fry some vegetables and then make braised fish for you."

Seeing that Ye Qingbai's arm had returned to normal, she asked, "Cousin, how is your arm recovery going?"

Ye Qingbai stretched his arms a couple of times and said, "I've recovered and can go back to work now without having to go to the hospital anymore."

As he said this, he involuntarily glanced at Shen Qian.

"I want to express my special gratitude to Dr. Shen during this period. If it weren't for her dedicated treatment, my arm wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

Ye Qingbai's tone was somewhat ambiguous.

Shen Qian awkwardly avoided his gaze, her expression aloof. "Why are you thanking me? I didn't do any rehabilitation for you."

"You are my attending physician, so of course I should thank you."

Seeing their awkwardness, Bai Zhi chuckled and prepared to cook. "You two sit and watch TV for a while, and peel this garlic while you're at it. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare."

Shen Qian didn't peel garlic with him, but followed Bai Zhi into the kitchen.

"Let me do it for you."

Seeing that she was deliberately avoiding Ye Qingbai, Bai Zhi smiled and teased, "The atmosphere between you and my cousin seems a little off to me."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qian's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly retorted, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Bai Zhi: "It's my intuition."

"Then your intuition is wrong."

She asked Bai Zhi, "Is there anything else I can help you with?"

Bai Zhi pointed to the vegetables on the cutting board and said, "Chop the vegetables."

Shen Qian. After visiting Bai Zhi's house several times and watching her cook, she became more and more adept at it herself.

Lu Ye returned just as the meal was almost ready.

When Ye Qingbai saw him, he couldn't help but complain, "Why are you so busy? You have to go to the military base on the weekend?"

"I went to the hospital."

Lu Ye and several colleagues just visited him at the hospital.

"Is Company Commander Zhou alright?"

Lu Ye replied, "I'll be discharged tomorrow."

"How did Company Commander Zhou get injured? Did he also suffer an unexpected setback like me?"

Ye Qingbai's tone conveyed a sense of balance, as if he had found a kindred spirit.

Lu Ye denied it, saying, "No."

Bai Zhi prepared a sumptuous meal and announced that the furniture factory workers would come to install the medicine cabinet tomorrow.

"Once all the furniture is in place and the medicinal herbs are ready, we can start preparing for business."

She sighed, "That's true, but everything is ready yet, the time for the right opportunity hasn't come."

Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Ye Qingbai knew what she meant by "east wind."
