Zhu Yanqiu was worried that Fang Feifei would leave him because of his family conditions, so he wanted to make great achievements on the battlefield. That way, even if Fang Feifei found out about the truth later, she wouldn’t leave him that easily.
Zhu Yanqiu lied to two women at the same time. He deceived Zhu Suniang out of malice in order to get money from her. Meanwhile, he deceived Fang Feifei out of goodwill. He did everything he could to keep Fang Feifei by his side because he loved Fang Feifei.
However, currently he had no way to hold a gun since he had gotten injured on the first day that he stepped onto the battlefield. Furthermore, he had even been saved by Zhu Suniang, His feelings were extremely complicated.
He felt that the heavens really were unfair. He didn’t have any areas in which he excelled but Zhu Suniang, that ignorant woman, had already become a military doctor.
Zhu Yanqiu was inwardly quite angry. Zhu Suniang was someone of the Zhu family. She had been raised by the Zhu family, yet she decided to rebel as soon as his parents passed away and stole all of the Zhu family’s money. And now she was even flourishing in her career.
What a shameless woman!
Ning Shu was currently treating a soldier’s wound when she felt a scorching gaze. She turned around and found that Zhu Yanqiu was currently glaring at her with a very resentful look, his eyes red.
Ning Shu scoffed, then continued with her work. Zhu Yanqiu was simply used to venting all his feelings on her.
More and more wounded soldiers were brought in, and the battle line was still receding nonstop. This showed that the frontline wasn’t doing well. From the start, the enemy had strong firepower and their weapons were even stronger than theirs.
Ning Shu’s simple operating room had also been moved back. As they were enacting the retreat, above them, the air force continued to shoot wildly.
This piece of land has also fallen into enemy hands. Even though they had already invested a lot of soldiers’ lives, they still hadn’t been able to stop the footsteps of the aggressors. Ning Shu suddenly felt that a single individual’s strength seemed so miniscule. Even if she was a task-taker, she couldn’t do anything in the face of the rolling wheel of history.
What Ning Shu wanted to do was simply to do her best to save as many people as she could. Every single person saved was one additional person. She didn’t have the ability to define fate and change the entire war situation with a flip of her hand after all.
Ning Shu opened her chest and found that there weren’t much medicinal powder left, but the number of wounded was only increasing. She became very worried. If things went on like this, sooner or later, she’d completely run out of medicinal powder.
She had to come up with a way to tell the higher ups about this. The higher ups kept saying that resources were tight, but if too many soldiers die, she as the military doctor would have to take responsibility.
Ning Shu had to worry about a lot of things every day. As long as a soldier’s heart hadn’t stopped beating, she had to do her all to save him.
She really wished that she had a helper. Right now, she was having to do everything, even all the trivial things.
Ning Shu reported this to Tang Zheng since he had said that she could go to him for anything. As long as it was something beneficial to the army, he would try his best to make it happen.
Ning Shu told Tang Zheng that she needed a helper to assist her in bandaging the wounds of the soldiers and soon Tang Zheng brought over a young girl. The girl looked young and seemed fifteen or sixteen at most. Her name was Xiao Tong.
Later, once Ning Shu got familiar with this young girl, she learned that this young girl had been raped by Japanese devils and there had even been more than one. However, fortunately, she had been rescued.
Ning Shu taught the young girl how to wrap gauze and taught her a lot of basic knowledge, so Xiao Tong usually called Ning Shu master.
When Ning Shu saw her like this, she decided to just teach her everything she knew. It was truly a time of great difficulty for the nation. Even if an individual’s power was miniscule, accumulation of miniscule power would still become enormous.
Now that she had a helper, her work became much more relaxed. She left most of the trivial tasks for Xiao Tong to handle.
During this period of time, Fang Feifei had already gained a slight reputation as a war reporter. Many newspapers used her photos of the battlefield, but Zhu Yanqiu hadn’t made any progress. Since he had been injured, he had to spend a long time recovering, so all he could do was watch Ning Shu busily work every day.
