Chapter 102: Seeing Wei Guo, Weimin

~8 min read 1,477 words

"This afternoon... thank you for covering for me in front of my parents. I apologize for your scar; it was my mistake."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Things are in the past. You don't care if I accept your apology, right? Go back and have a good meal with your friends. Let's pretend we never knew each other."

At this time, a female soldier who followed over said coquettishly: "Ya, Platoon Leader Li, a hero on the battlefield, still cares about such a small scar? There are many big-headed soldiers in the field hospital who are missing arms and legs. What is this? Besides, what's wrong with a man having a scar? That is a man's medal."

Li Xuewu heard her say this about his comrades in the hospital and directly retorted: "Doctor Tong, right? My brain was unclear at the time. My comrade-in-arms said I was moving around in pain. You gave me anesthesia, but it didn't work. Finally, you advocated direct suturing. You were among them, right? I want to ask why the anesthesia didn't work?"

This made Doctor Tong blush, but Gu Ning's face turned pale.

Li Xuewu didn't want to settle accounts with them anymore and said: "I'll just assume you were afraid of damaging my nerves and didn't dare to use anesthesia."

"We are all down from that place. The hurdle in my heart has passed. I don't want to mention this topic again. Also, you said scars are a man's medal, but have you seen any man willing to hang a medal on his face?"

Gu Ning felt some guilt in her heart. At that time, their batch of medical students had just graduated and were pulled to the front line.

The teacher said that the front line could best temper medical skills and courage, so this batch of people went to the front line to assist military doctors in doing some basic medical treatment, including suturing.

When studying in medical school, they mostly practiced techniques on corpses, and the hurdle that must be passed to learn medicine is to use knives and needles on real people.

One is to temper courage and overcome the fear of human nature, and the second is to temper technology. In a field hospital, all kinds of surgical cases can be encountered.

The classmates in the same line all found opportunities to practice, and the teacher also assessed them, but she always missed the wounded who needed suturing by running around.

It was hard to catch one, so how could she let go? In the field hospital, it was chaotic, so Li Xuewu was the patient Gu Ning snatched, the first patient she did suturing on a living person, and a patient with facial trauma who was moving around.

"Tian A Jiang Lin"

At that time, Tong Yan gave Li Xuewu an injection, but took the wrong medicine. It wasn't anesthesia. Tong Yan was afraid of taking responsibility, so she said Li Xuewu was resistant to anesthesia and couldn't be given any more for fear of accidents, persuading Gu Ning to hold Li Xuewu down and suture him directly.

The first time she did suturing, she encountered such a tricky patient. How much ability could the nervous Gu Ning exert?

Coupled with Li Xuewu's unclear consciousness, Gu Ning was also scratched by Li Xuewu's wildly waving arms. Finally, it was the comrade who sent Li Xuewu who held Li Xuewu down, and Gu Ning sutured him.

Looking at Li Xuewu's unwilling eyes, he must care very much about his face, but this afternoon, Li Xuewu spoke about this matter calmly in front of her parents, which was considered a conclusion with her.

Especially through her mother's questioning, Gu Ning had an understanding of Li Xuewu's other side, and she felt very guilty inside. Otherwise, with Gu Ning's character, she wouldn't apologize to others.

Gu Ning had checked Li Xuewu's documents. This face would look very good without this scar. Now it's like porcelain with cracks, repaired, but it's not as good as the original.

Gu Ning nodded and said: "I can only say sorry. You can mention any compensation you want, and I will try my best to satisfy it."

Li Xuewu looked into Gu Ning's eyes and said: "Since you and I have no fate in this life, let's fulfill each other."

Gu Ning nodded after hearing this, turned around, and led her colleagues back.

After returning to her seat, she didn't look at Li Xuewu again, responding to a young man in a cadre suit beside her, appearing neither close nor distant.

You pretend not to understand, and I pretend to be relaxed. Missing is missing. People, after all, must have some character.

The female military doctor who interrupted just now "hummed" and pouted: "What's so arrogant? Isn't it just going to the front line? Not even letting people talk about it."

At this time, the young man talking to Gu Ning asked: "Who is that? How is he even more arrogant than me? I'll go and meet him."

Saying that, he was about to stand up to find trouble.

Gu Ning grabbed the young man and said: "Seeing Wei Guo, don't provoke him. It's none of your business. Your brother is coming today."

The young man looked at Li Xuewu's build, then looked at the scar on his face, and sat down very obediently, muttering: "I'll listen to you, but don't scare me with my brother. I'm not a child anymore. Besides, my brother..."

Before he finished speaking, another person entered the door.

National defense green, military overcoat, cadre leather boots, took off his hat, revealing a handsome face.

Thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad face, high nose bridge, looking very noble.

Seeing this person enter, the few people at the table all stood up and greeted politely.

"Brother Weimin came late. Sister Ning is waiting anxiously."

The young man who was shouting earlier relied on the good atmosphere at the dinner table to tease the person who came in.

This Weimin was only twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, more mature than anyone at the table, and spoke very experiencedly.

"Sorry to keep you brothers and sisters waiting for a long time. Just sent the chief home, delayed by something. Thank you all for coming to welcome me."

"Brother Weimin is polite. We all grew up together. It's been three or four years since we met. It should be."

"That's right, that's right."

Weimin organized everyone to sit down, and he sat in the seat his brother gave up, sitting next to Gu Ning.

Seeing that Gu Ning's face was a bit cold because of the words of the person who was teasing just now, Weimin whispered a greeting.

"It's been three years. Are you okay? Waiting anxiously?"

Gu Ning barely smiled slightly and said: "Very good. We just arrived, nothing of the sort. Fork is just teasing."

Looking at the distant and polite Gu Ning, she was still the same as before, not close or distant to anyone, even though he was the soul of the younger generation in the courtyard at that time.

He was young and liked to play around at that time. Now that he thinks about it, it's better to be steady and conservative, even if it's a bit cold.

Back then, Gu Ning also worshipped him, but he was...

For more than three years, he couldn't even count how many letters he wrote to Gu Ning, but there wasn't a single reply.

This time he returned, he must seize the opportunity.

Weimin smiled and said: "That's good."

After Weimin finished speaking, he organized everyone to order more dishes and serve wine. The atmosphere at this table suddenly became lively.

Li Xuewu only stared at that side for a glance and didn't look again, but talked about past interesting things with Lin Tingting.

Sometimes a joke made Lin Tingting cover her mouth and laugh, patting Li Xuewu with her hand.

Ever since he had this face, Li Xuewu rarely contacted girls, feeling a little inferior. Seeing that Lin Tingting didn't care about his face, he let go.

While chatting and laughing, he took the opportunity to hold Lin Tingting's hand, which earned him a big eye-roll from Lin Tingting, but there was no big reaction.

I know your heart...

Li Xuewu's technique of climbing the pole was first-class. Although he didn't say words of confession, he set the tone for the first date.

After all, there is a first time, there will be a second time.

Li Xuewu looked at Lin Tingting, raised his drink cup, and toasted with Lin Tingting: "Today is our first official date. May we have luck falling from the sky, unexpected surprises, miracles appearing out of nowhere, and getting what we wish for after all kinds of hardships." ===== CHAPTER 103 =====
