An hour ago.

After leaving Old Master Qi's ward, Ling Wenchen had been deep in thought about something.

That's why he has different feelings for Jiang Yuyan.

He could have confidently told Ling's mother that he had handed everything over to the country and had no time or energy to talk about personal feelings.

Before that incident, he only regarded Jiang Yuyan as a good younger sister in the eyes of his friend.

Other than that, I have no other thoughts.

After what happened between Ling Wenchen and Jiang Yuyan, he thought that Jiang Yuyan was really willing to do such a thing in order to stay in the Lin family and take advantage of his identity.

What was he thinking back then?

Anger mixed with resentment towards his friend.

His friend saved every penny and sent all his salary back to his sister; this was something everyone in the army knew.

When Ling Wenchen learned Jiang Yuyan's true colors, besides disappointment, he also felt guilty for hurting her.

Although she had false feelings for him and used him, the woman ultimately suffered in this matter.

and so--

Ling Wenchen went back and pondered for a long time before taking gifts to the Lin family to apologize in person, only to be told that she had already been kicked out by the Lin family.

He was a little lost at the time, but he couldn't help wanting to know about her situation and how she was doing.

What should she do if someone bullies her, etc.?

The more he paid attention to Jiang Yuyan, the more he couldn't take his eyes off her, and the more he wanted to give her something better.

He was extremely worried when he heard about what had happened to her biological family.

I really want to help her solve this problem.

However, before he could take any action, he heard that Jiang Yuyan had already resolved the matter perfectly.

This was the first time Ling Wenchen had truly come to understand his friend's younger sister; she was indeed intelligent, brave, and loyal.

Even though she's not even 20 years old and has just returned to her biological family, she's willing to go to great lengths to rescue her brothers whom she doesn't even know.

Ling Wenchen knew what she did afterward and was very happy that her family was gradually getting better.

When exactly did he change his attitude towards Jiang Yuyan?

And why did he change his mind after hearing that she was willing to come to the border despite her health just to talk to him, and even give up on letting him know that she was pregnant because of his "attitude"?

However, Ling Wenchen felt that he was completely innocent.

If Jiang Yuyan knew that he had been thinking about how to confess his feelings to her, would this misunderstanding have been avoided?

The more Ling Wenchen thought about it, the less he could contain his emotions that were about to erupt.

He turned his wheelchair and walked straight to the cliff edge at the back door.

A group of people stopped them at the back door.

"You cannot go in here, comrade, please move to another place."

"I am the deputy commander of the East District Border Regiment. Comrade Yanzi is under my protection. I need to keep a close watch on her at the scene. Comrade, please let me in. I have already reported to the division commander."

Ling Wenchen took out his military officer's ID card and unfolded it, his attitude very firm.

He knew there was nothing he could do right now, but he didn't want to just wait idly.

He could wait for Jiang Yuyan to return as close as possible to her, and only by seeing that she was safe and sound could he finally relax after these past few days.

The two soldiers guarding the back door looked at each other in bewilderment.

After saluting him, they had someone lead him inside.

It wasn't that they let him in so easily, but rather that the instructors had said that as long as he didn't do anything else extreme, he could do whatever he wanted without being stopped.

Coincidentally.

Ling Wenchen stopped right above the cave entrance on the edge of the cliff.

He suddenly saw something flying up, and his actions outpaced his thought process.

Without a second thought, he stepped over the wheelchair and firmly grabbed the basket. It was because of this glance down that he saw Jiang Yuyan, her head hanging low and huddled in the basket, her life hanging in the balance.

Jiang Yuyan seems to be in a deep sleep, completely unaware of anything. Even with their violent shaking, she shows no signs of being awake.

His lips were pale and colorless, dry and chapped, as if he hadn't drunk water in a long time.

"Whoosh!"

A heavy force came from under the basket, almost pulling Ling Wenchen down with the basket.

"Ahhh—"

Ling Wenchen clung tightly to the tree trunk with his feet and gripped the edge of the basket with both hands, struggling to grab Jiang Yuyan inside.

If only we could get a little closer.

If he got just a little closer, he could grab Jiang Yuyan—

Again--

"ah--"

caught!

Ling Wenchen's eyes lit up, and he immediately let go of the basket on his back and grabbed Jiang Yuyan instead.

They moved incredibly quickly, as if afraid that if they hesitated even a moment longer, someone else would steal her away.

He suddenly pulled her up through gritted teeth, hugged her waist tightly, and dragged her back to safety.

The commotion attracted the attention of patrolling soldiers, who were shocked to see the woman suddenly appear.

Ling Wenchen held the person without moving, his breathing somewhat unsteady.

"This is Comrade Yanzi. Go and inform the regimental commander that we have rescued Comrade Yanzi. Let him unleash his full power and capture all the villains inside."

The patrolling soldiers looked at Ling Wenchen's hands, which were covered in blood and bleeding profusely, yet he remained expressionless and held his comrade tightly in his arms. They admired him.

"yes!"

"Deputy Commander, should we take this comrade to the hospital as soon as possible? And your hand—"

His words awakened Ling Wenchen's rationality.

"Yes, yes, Yu, Comrade Yanzi urgently needs medical attention, I—"

Ling Wenchen was about to stand up with the person in his arms, but his feet wouldn't move, accompanied by a faint, throbbing pain.

"Could you please take Comrade Yanzi to the hospital for me? Thank you so much!"

Watching Jiang Yuyan's figure disappear into the distance, Ling Wenchen was filled with regret at that moment.

Why did he have to get injured at this particular time?

Why is he so useless?

If he were a little more skilled and a little more careful, wouldn't he be the one who rescued Jiang Yuyan now?

When Ling Wenchen rushed back to the hospital,

The emergency room door wasn't even open yet, and even Old Qi, who hadn't fully recovered, was dragged over to wait.

The division commander arrived immediately upon receiving the news and immediately saw Ling Wenchen, whose hands were dripping blood.

"you......"

"Hey, Deputy Commander, what are you doing? Quick, quick, get a doctor! Someone's injured here."

Regardless of Ling Wenchen's consent, the instructor insisted that the doctor bandage him.

Once it's done,

Ling Wenchen turned his wheelchair and parked it at the closest possible distance to the emergency room entrance, waiting.

Lost in thought, he suddenly heard a cold snort beside him and looked up.

Faced with Old Master Qi's cold face,

"What are you doing? Trying to play the victim and make my apprentice worry? Or are you looking for death?"

Ling Wenchen snapped out of his daze, glanced at the closed door, and said, "I... I didn't—"

"I just forgot, I absolutely didn't mean to worry her. This time I was useless, I didn't protect her properly, and she got hurt like this—"

Old Qi interrupted his self-pity.

"What? You want to give up now that you've encountered a little setback?"

"Or are you trying to tell me that you have no ability to make her happy, and that we should stop bothering you?"

Ling Wenchen immediately shook his head.

"I don't."

"I absolutely did not mean that. I... I'm sorry, I was too upset and said the wrong thing, please forgive me."

Ling Wenchen was truly afraid.

He feared that there might be some misunderstanding between him and Jiang Yuyan, which would eventually lead to them drifting apart.

The mere thought of that outcome filled Ling Wenchen with panic and dread.

Old Qi snorted coldly.

Whether something is true or false isn't determined by what you say, but by what you do.

"I won't be as soft-hearted as that silly girl. If you dare to be even slightly rude, don't blame me for breaking you up."

Ling Wenchen opened his mouth as if to say something, but the door to the emergency room opened.

Immediately, everyone looked at the doctor who had come out, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.

Doctor: "Comrade Yanzi's condition is not good."

"She is severely dehydrated, has low blood sugar, is somewhat malnourished, and also—"

The doctor paused here, looked at the people present, and decided to hold back.

"I'd like to say the rest to Comrade Yanzi's family. May I ask who among you is her family member?"
