Chapter 680 - You Need To Be Mentally Prepared
“I understand. Thank you.” A smile finally appeared on Xia Jinyuan’s indifferent face. He knew how uncomfortable Ye Jian was so he moved his hand away.
It was a sudden contact and a sudden departure. Ye Jian suddenly felt a huge sense of relief. The air was filled with the mint smell from his body but she couldn’t care about it now. She took a deep breath silently.
At this moment, Ye Jian suddenly realized that it was more difficult to interact with this dangerous man with other people around.
As for that half-empty bottle of iodine, Xia Jinyuan didn’t take it. He took the new bottle and left. Before he left, he smiled elegantly at Ye Jian.
The military doctor didn’t sense anything amiss. He just thought that the major was taking care of Ye Jian. “He’s quite thoughtful. Give me your hand. We’ll clean the wound first.”
There was nothing Ye Jian could say. Xia Jinyuan was always able to let other people believe that he was doing a good thing when in fact, he was doing something bad.
Since it was a work-related injury, the military doctor didn’t probe further. He used saline to clean the wound carefully and found a small pustule. Military doctors were always cautious when attending to wounds caused by bullets.
After covering the wound with gauze, the doctor said softly, “It’s not a big wound but there might be a scar. You need to be mentally prepared.”
The scar wouldn’t be as big as the one on her back. Ye Jian wore her uniform and smiled at the doctor. “No problem. Thank you. I’ll come and find you again tomorrow.”
After Teacher Xiao told Ye Ying that her parents would be reaching soon, she walked towards Ye Jian. “When did you get hurt? None of the teachers knew that you were hurt.”
“I didn’t get hurt during the military training. I injured myself accidentally. The wound is a little inflamed so I came to find the military doctor,” Ye Jian smiled as she explained. After what happened during the past two days, all the teachers in the military unit probably knew who she was.
Teacher Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when she knew that Ye Jian wasn’t injured during military training. Then, she inquired about her injury.
“It’s not a big problem. The inflammation isn’t serious. She will be able to recover within five days.” The military doctor wouldn’t tell the teacher the real cause of the injury. Possession of guns needed to be authorized by the government. Since Ye Jian was injured due to work, the military doctor would help her hide the truth. “It’s not serious. It became inflamed because she didn’t take care of it at the start. She just needs to change her gauze again tomorrow.”
“After that, she can take the gauze off three to five days later and apply iodine on the wound daily.”
Teacher Xiao was relieved after hearing the doctor’s answer. Ye Jian was an important student. She mustn’t be careless. She spoke to Ye Jian kindly, “Take good care of yourself. If you need anything, you can look for me. Hurry up and have your meal. Have a good rest today. You need to wake up early tomorrow.”
Ye Ying felt a little angry when she heard this. Teacher Xiao didn’t comfort her even though she was lying on the sickbed. Yet, she worried so much about Ye Jian when her injury wasn’t even gotten during the military training.
“Teacher Xiao, I want to take a walk outside. I feel uncomfortable lying down.” She was fine anyway. She just wanted to escape so she came to the infirmary and laid on the bed. After Ye Ying finished speaking, she placed her hands beside her and prepared to get up.
Teacher Xiao knew that she had a conflict with Ye Jian at the shooting range so her face turned black. “Where do you want to go? I’ll accompany you.”
