The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

Jiang Yuyan wasn't angry after being scolded; instead, she looked at Ling Wenchen, who was equally puzzled.

Before she could speak, Ling Wenchen spoke first, his face showing a mixture of confusion and speechlessness.

"Hey...where did this guy come from? Do I know you? You just barged into my ward like that?"

Seeing that she was wearing a nurse's uniform, his eyes turned cold. "Judging by your attire, are you a nurse at the base's infirmary? Does being a nurse give you the right to ignore patients and casually enter other people's rooms?"

The nurse opened her mouth, not expecting to be so rudely criticized by Ling Wenchen, and her face showed grievance.

Before she could even begin to voice her grievances, Ling Wenchen impatiently interrupted her, "Who is your head nurse? Call her here. I need to ask her if nurses at the base can freely enter patients' rooms?"

The nurse panicked immediately. "Deputy Commander, I... I didn't mean any harm. I was just worried about you being injured alone with no one to bring you food. I was afraid you'd go hungry, so I went to get you some food right after my shift. I didn't expect—"

As she spoke, she glared fiercely at Jiang Yuyan.

She felt that this woman, who appeared out of nowhere, had stolen her chance to deliver food, and that she must be a cheap woman who had fallen for the deputy commander's position and was throwing herself at him.

Jiang Yuyan's innocent expression

She secretly rolled her eyes in her mind. Is this never going to end?

One by one, they all thought she was someone special to Ling Wenchen.

With so many people hostile towards her, do you believe she'll actually grant their "wishes" on the spot and become their true rival in love?

Ling Wenchen, standing to the side, was unaware of her thoughts; otherwise, he would have been unable to suppress the excitement emanating from his lips.

He was now sternly reprimanding someone, "What do you mean you didn't expect it? Is it that you really didn't expect it or that you didn't want to?"

Also, you're a nurse at the base's medical station. How does the base treat wounded soldiers? Others may not know, but as a nurse, surely you know?

At the border, whether at the southern or eastern base, wounded soldiers on the front lines are treated with the same level of care and consideration.

Not only are their food, clothing, and shelter provided free of charge, but the health centers are also required to do their utmost to save them, regardless of the resources required.

The nurse clearly realized what was happening; her previously aggrieved expression instantly turned pale. "I, I..."

Just then, the head nurse, who had heard the commotion, came in. She was a plump, auspicious-looking middle-aged woman named Yan Mei, who was warm-hearted and responsible.

Head Nurse Yan frowned as she looked at the young nurse who was crying in front of the patient.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here? Didn't you get off work? Why are you still here? Is this a place for you?"

The nurse named Xiaoxiao was startled, not expecting Head Nurse Yan to come.

"I--"

Ling Wenchen interrupted her, looking at Head Nurse Yan, "Is this the head nurse here? May I ask, are the nurses here allowed to freely enter and leave patients' rooms?"

Upon hearing this, and glancing at Xiaoxiao who was weeping beside her, Head Nurse Yan understood everything.

Feeling uncomfortable inside, she outwardly replied dutifully, "Don't worry, Deputy Commander, no one from the clinic can freely enter or leave a patient's room."

"As for Nurse Xiaoxiao, I will handle her strictly according to the clinic's regulations; a demerit will definitely be recorded—"

Nurse Xiaoxiao panicked, crying as she tugged at Head Nurse Yan's arm, "Head Nurse, I was wrong. I made a small mistake because I didn't know the situation. It doesn't have to be a demerit, does it?"

Being given a demerit not only means your file will be kept, but it will also mean you'll never have a chance to find a good job again.

"You know you were wrong now? What were you doing just now? Let me tell you, it's too late," Head Nurse Yan said sternly.

Seeing her still standing there motionless, his anger flared even more. "What are you still standing there for? Is a demerit not enough? Should I change it to a major demerit?"

The next second, Nurse Xiaoxiao hurriedly ran out the door without even saying goodbye to the head nurse.

Nurse Yan shook her head in disappointment. "Sorry to disturb the deputy commander's meal. Please continue eating." With that, she turned and left.

There were two people left in the ward.

Ling Wenchen felt awkward. He cautiously glanced at the expressionless woman and tentatively whispered, "..."

"Yu Yan? Shall we eat now?"

Jiang Yuyan found his cautious demeanor both amusing and bewildering.

She knew that Ling Wenchen was only being kind to her because of Brother Lin.

Besides that, he might also feel guilty and want to make amends to her, which is why he took such good care of her.

Upon hearing that he had a fiancée, Jiang Yuyan was momentarily bewildered.

Everything she had thought about before was shattered by the word "fiancée," and it also shattered her long-held self-righteousness.

Although she was pregnant, she considered everything except Ling Wenchen, which was unfair to him.

If she were to tell him she was pregnant even knowing he had a fiancée, it would be unfair to him and his future fiancée.

Besides, she wouldn't do such a thing. How is she any different from a bad woman who destroys other people's families?

Watching Jiang Yuyan leave, Ling Wenchen's gentle expression instantly turned into a frown, his eyes filled with confusion.

Why did he feel that Jiang Yuyan had become much more unfamiliar with him just a moment ago?

Even though she was right in front of him, Ling Wenchen felt that she was very, very far away from him.

Why?

Did he do something wrong unintentionally that made her angry?

Or is she hiding something from him?

Ling Wenchen couldn't understand or guess what was going on, and felt anxious and helpless.

He wanted to tell her as soon as possible that he really liked her, with marriage in mind.

However, there are many things to do now, many things haven't been investigated yet, and there are still threats around her. We can't keep her in such a dangerous place forever.

Yes, he needs to recover his health as soon as possible, resolve the issues here as soon as possible, and get her back to her comfortable place as soon as possible.

Back in her dormitory, Jiang Yuyan had no idea that even the unconscious expression she made made Ling Wenchen think so much, and thus accelerated the investigation and resolution of the border issue.

Just as I was about to rest, there was a knock on the door.

Who is it?

"It's me, open the door," Master Qi called out.

Jiang Yuyan opened the door, looked at the large and small bags he was carrying with suspicion, and quickly stepped forward to take them, but he dodged her.

Upon entering the room, Master Qi placed the large and small bags on the table and opened them for her one by one.

"Hey, this is a sour fruit, a local specialty. I heard it's very sweet, you should like it too, so I had someone buy some for you to try later."

"And this is canned yellow peaches, canned oranges, and canned hawthorns. I didn't know which one you preferred, so I had someone buy some of them."

"And...blah blah blah..."

Jiang Yuyan looked in surprise at the pile of snacks on the table.

Yes, it's snacks, or rather, little treats for her now.

"Wow, Master, you're the best to me! Hehe, I like all of these things, they look delicious, thank you Master!"

She casually picked up a sour fruit, popped it into her mouth, and crunched it down. The sweet and sour taste instantly won her over, and she didn't find it sour at all.

He ate one after another until he reached the fifth one. Only after seeing Master Qi's dumbfounded expression did he realize that he had eaten a little too much.

She chuckled awkwardly, "Master, would you... like some?"

Master Qi took a step back and shook his head. "Don't you find it very sour?"

Just smelling the sourness of the fruit made his mouth water; there was no way he could eat it, absolutely no way.

Jiang Yuyan shook her head, "No, it's not sour at all, it's delicious, Master—"

"No, I'll give you the things, I should go back now."

Master Qi quickly walked to the door, but just before leaving, he remembered something and turned back. "Oh, right, another batch of new 'goods' is coming in tomorrow. You can take a look then."

This "goods" are not the same as that "goods".

Jiang Yuyan understood immediately and gave him a thumbs-up.

At that moment, she was unaware that the newly arrived batch of "goods" was part of a scheme targeting her and her master.
