Chapter 95 Border Guard Mulan

"Uncle Li, please take care of yourselves. I'll be back in a while."

Xia Zhi felt a warmth in her heart; it makes all the difference when someone cares about you.

They chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up. After having breakfast with Shen Hangzhi, Xia Zhi went to the bank.

She saved a little and kept some on her person. The banks in town weren't very convenient, so she still needed to have cash.

After they came out, the two went to the hospital on their way.

Shen Changming has fully regained consciousness and is currently drinking porridge.

"Xia is here, Xia. Thank you, Grandpa Shen." Shen Changming's breath was weak and his speech was not very fluent.

"Grandpa Shen, please recover from your injury first. We can talk about this later."

Shen Changming nodded at her, then looked at Shen Hangzhi beside her with a faint smile on his lips.

Even without saying a word, you could tell he was in a good mood.

After sitting for a short while, there was a knock on the ward door, and an elderly man wearing a Zhongshan suit and leaning on a cane walked in, leaving the people behind him outside.

Xia Zhi looked at the white magnolia behind him.

Bai Huaye stepped forward and offered a few simple greetings, but Shen Changming was unable to reply, so Shen Taishan, who was standing nearby, took over.

After chatting for a while, Bai Huaye steered the conversation toward Xia Zhi.

"Miss Xia, could you please take a look at my granddaughter?"

"Grandpa Bai, you're too kind." Xia Zhi said and walked to Bai Yulan's side.

Bai Yulan stretched out her hand; her slender hand had very little flesh, and you could even see some clearly visible needle marks.

All eyes were on her.

Qin Beishan, who had just arrived at the door, looked at the situation inside and was surprised to find that the woman who had been unkempt yesterday seemed like a completely different person when she came to see a doctor.

She exudes an attractive charm.

Qin Beishan followed his father, Qin Wang, inside silently, and the others nodded to each other in greeting.

A few minutes later, Xia Zhi let go of her hand. "It can be cured, but it might take a while."

Without a second thought, Bai Huaye excitedly replied, "It would be great if it could be cured! It would be great if it could be cured! I just don't know how long it will take? Three years? Five years? Or... ten years?"

Bai Yulan hadn't recovered from those two words yet; she had seen far too many people shake their heads over the years.

I never imagined that I would hear the words "I can be saved" in my lifetime.

"It won't take that long, within two years."

Birch Leaf took a deep breath. Two years...

Over the past twenty years, he has consulted countless Chinese and Western doctors, but she said it took two years?
He couldn't believe it, but the example of his old friend Shen Changming was right in front of him.

Xia Zhi frowned and said, "However, I will be going home in a few days. I can't stay here for more than two years. If Grandpa Bai trusts me, I can take Sister Bai back with me."

Bai Huaye hesitated. His granddaughter hadn't traveled far from home in recent years due to health issues.

Shen Changming, standing behind Xia Zhi, spoke up for her, "Old Bai, let Lanlan go. Xia is Beiting's wife, and Old Li is there too, so it'll be fine."

Upon hearing the name Beiting, Qin Beishan felt like crying. He had enjoyed over twenty years of glory, only to have it all ruined by this couple.

A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!
Qin Wang's lips twitched, and he looked at his son, who looked sullen, with a sympathetic gaze.

This kid is acting strangely early in the morning, practicing boxing in the yard before dawn.

It turned out that he had been taught a lesson again, and after learning that it was related to the Shen family, he also brought his men.

It turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

A few years ago, this brat was beaten so badly by Lu Beiting that he was bedridden for half a year, and now he's being beaten by his wife...

He's completely lost face.

"Grandpa, I'll go. It's only two years, it'll be quick." Bai Yulan stepped forward and took Bai Huaye's hand. She felt it was worth it to go to the border for two years to cure her illness.

"Alright," Birch Leaf finally relented.

Xia Zhi then noticed Qin Beishan kicking the wall in the corner.

Seeing her confusion, Shen Hangzhi whispered, "This kid was beaten up by Bei Ting a few years ago."

Xia Zhi bit her lip, suppressing a laugh, "Then he's quite lucky."

After greeting them a few times, Qin Wang looked at his good-for-nothing son in the corner.

"Qin Beishan, what are you doing there? Hurry up and apologize to Lanlan and Miss Xia."

Qin Wang then had the Ganoderma lucidum that had been auctioned the day before brought in.

"Lanlan, please accept this as a small token of your uncle's appreciation."

Xia Zhi touched the tip of her nose and looked to the side.

Bai Yulan looked at Bai Huaye pleadingly. Bai Huaye looked at the large Ganoderma lucidum and finally accepted it, but returned the gift.

Qin Wang looked at Xia Zhi and asked her about Lu Beiting's illness.

"Miss Xia, I heard some time ago that Bei Ting was seriously injured. How is he now?"

Xia Zhi answered honestly, "Okay, I'm doing rehabilitation at home."

Upon hearing this, Bai Huaye trusted Xia Zhi even more. Although Lu Beiting's injury was a secret, these old guys knew it all too well.

When the group came out, there happened to be a newspaper vendor at the hospital entrance.

Xia Zhi paused, narrowing her eyes, feeling a sense of foreboding.

"Newspapers for sale! Border guards Hua Mulan and Xia Zhi have arrested several criminals in the past two months..."

Xia Zhi: "..."

Birch Leaf immediately exclaimed, "Ah! I knew I'd forgotten something. Oh, it's this. I'm getting old; my memory isn't what it used to be."

Qin Wang also came to his senses and looked at her admiringly, "Miss Xia is truly a heroine who is no less capable than any man."

"Grandpa Bai, Uncle Qin, it's not that exaggerated. Uncle Li is giving me credit. Actually, it's not entirely my achievement. Everyone helped."

Qin Wang raised an eyebrow. That old bastard Li Jianguo still has people calling him Uncle Li?
Furthermore, it's not surprising that Li Jianguo would accept this military command without question.

Qin Beishan, deeply affected, lagged behind, his mind constantly replaying what the woman had said the day before.

Calling him a good-for-nothing makes me feel like I really am a good-for-nothing in comparison.

It's one thing that he can't compare to Lu Beiting, that country bumpkin.

Why can't he even compare to a woman now?

Qin Beishan thought angrily, then took a newspaper from the vendor; it was full of Xia Zhi's achievements.

It tells how she single-handedly fought off two smugglers on the mountain and helped loot things buried there.

Then they rescued women and children from a group of kidnappers, and that's another story.

Then, they keenly discovered the enemy's motives, allowing them to prepare in advance, and subsequently wiped out a group of criminals in one fell swoop.

After reading it, Qin Beishan fell silent. No one would dare to fake something like this, especially not someone as rigid as Li Jianguo.

So, is she really that amazing?
Qin Beishan gripped the newspaper tightly in his hand, a thought he had never had before becoming unusually firm.

He also wanted to join the army; he didn't want to be a good-for-nothing who relied solely on his family.

Qin Wang glanced at his son out of the corner of his eye and raised an eyebrow slightly.

Has this brat finally figured it out?

If I had known it would go this smoothly, I should have let Lu Beiting beat him up a few more times.
