Chapter 439: Chapter 303 Seeking Help
Today’s military makeup coding was too much, I feel like throwing up, so just one chapter for the marriage for now, I’ll code more for the marriage tomorrow.
————————————————–
I didn’t expect that in just one month, such a dramatic change could have occurred. I rember the last ti I ca to class, the interns of 401 were looking at the female dical team mbers with eyes full of envy, but in such a short ti, it has completely reversed.
“Did sothing happen?” Chuxia asked, “Weren’t they always full of envy for us?”
Liu ijun sighed softly, “We’ve had two tests, and only Wu Jingbo, Lin ngran, and Yang Xiaoli made it to the top twenty. Only the students who pass at the end are allowed to stay, and that’s when their tails went up.”
Chuxia nodded in sudden realization, the self-enrolled students from 401 were originally temporary staff recruited to supplent internal needs, so they naturally envied the female dical team mbers with military status. Now that the playing field is leveled, naturally their ntality has changed too.
It’s said that many turning points in a person’s life require not just effort, but also luck. This is true for the mbers of the dical team like Chuxia, and even more so for the self-enrolled students of 401. They are both special products of this era.
The difference is that this batch of self-recruited staff was originally just temporary personnel for 401, but last month, they were suddenly given military status through an official docunt. What they once envied was the aura of the female dical team, but now that they have it themselves, their ntality has naturally changed.
While Luo Xiaoqiong and Liu ijun were talking, Chuxia felt soone sneaking glances at her. Following their gaze, she saw a girl with skin so pale it was almost transparent quickly lowering her head in fluster.
Noticing Chuxia’s action, Luo Xiaoqiong also looked over and said, “She’s ijun’s neighbor, her na is Hu Die, and she has been at odds with our ijun since they were little.”
Xiaoqiong is being considerate, it’s not that Hu Die and I don’t get along, she’s naturally my nesis. Whether in terms of study or looks, she’s better than in every way. Every ti my mother sees her, she’s sure to scold to the point where my nose isn’t a nose and my face isn’t a face.
When I was little, I couldn’t stand her, wishing every day that she would move away. Now though, I kind of feel sorry for her. Her dad fled across the strait, leaving her and her mom to fend for themselves, which is tough.”
Chuxia realized in surprise, “So, she was sneaking glances at you just now?”
“Yeah.” Liu ijun nodded and then pouted, “At first, she still associated with , but now with both sides in conflict, she dares not speak to anymore. Probably feeling guilty about it, she always likes to sneak glances at . I hate this kind of disloyalty the most, don’t bother with her.”
“Ah!…”
“Get up! Hurry up and get up!”
“It’s all over, we squashed them to death!”
“…”
Chuxia, Luo Xiaoqiong, and Liu ijun were startled by the sudden howling, and when they turned around, they saw several girls clumsily picking up a flattened cage from the ground, with two little white mice… squashed inside…
“What… what does this an?” Luo Xiaoqiong’s eyes widened, and she then pulled Chuxia and Liu ijun’s heads close, whispering, “Well, now the patient has been murdered, there’s no need for the test.”
“…” The two of them were silent together.
“It’s all your fault, why did you push, now look what happened, where are we going to find two sick mice?”
“Why did you hog the space and not let see?”
“You were hogging the space just now, not letting see.”
“Who didn’t let you see, it’s obviously you who dragged away and then took over the whole space for yourself.”
“…”
The ones arguing were two female students, one fat and one thin.
Luo Xiaoqiong quietly introduced to Chuxia, “Finally, it’s their own people who are in trouble. The fat one is Liu Xinghua and the thin one is Zhang Juni, both from the sa group, first and second place, and neither submits to the other.”
Seeing Professor Yuan tottering towards the classroom, the two who were arguing stashed themselves back in their seats quickly. As soon as the professor entered, he saw the flat cage and the two mice squished into pancakes, and with a howl, he leaped onto the podium, “Who did this?!”
His stern gaze swept over everyone and settled on the second group’s spot, “Whoever did this, stand up now! Otherwise, when I find out, you won’t be allowed to stay here any longer!”
“She did it!” The fat and thin girls simultaneously pointed at each other.
Professor Yuan waved his hand, “Okay, sit down. The practical class will continue tomorrow, and you two are responsible for finding two little white mice, regardless of who did it. Now, let’s continue with the content from the previous class.”
Luo Xiaoqiong pursed her lips and whispered into Chuxia’s ear, “See, this is preferential treatnt. If it were soone from our side, they would definitely be made to stand outside the door for a class period and then be reported to the higher-ups at the institute.”
Liu ijun also joined in, “He just has a particular fondness for those who excel in their studies, almost to the point of being unprincipled about it. Chuxia, I think he’s likely to take a liking to you.”
“Pay attention to the lecture.” After hearing what the two had to say, Chuxia gained so understanding of the old professor’s character. After so many years of valuing military prowess over scholarship, the old professor harbored a fanatical affection for students who excelled academically. This might also explain his particular disdain for the female dical team mbers, as he probably thought that dicine was dicine and the military was the military—why bother training soldiers without a solid foundation to beco dics?
After class, Chuxia returned to the office and recounted everything she had observed during the lecture to Song Xiaoyu.
Song Xiaoyu sighed, “Elder Yuan has been tornted in recent years, ending up with rheumatism in both legs. He gets heart-wrenching pain just from standing for a while, yet he insisted on taking the podium himself for this course. Director Xu had no choice but to agree.”
“When Elder Yuan was young, he studied dicine in D country and truly has expertise. Aside from being a bit stubborn in character, there’s nothing else wrong with him. You should really learn diligently from him, you’ll gain a lot.”
“I will, teacher,” Chuxia quickly expressed her commitnt.
Just then, Wu Jingbo hurried over, “Director Song, may I have a mont alone with Chuxia?”
Director Song, who had a good impression of Wu Jingbo, waved a hand, “Go ahead.”
“Chuxia, I need your help.” Pulling Chuxia to a secluded corner, Wu Jingbo spoke urgently, “Cheng Guo accompanied a teacher to the operating table, and now, you’re the only one who can help him.”
“What exactly happened, explain it clearly.”
“Cheng Guo has a girlfriend nad Li Xiaoru. They’ve already submitted their marriage report and are about to get married, but today, Li Xiaoru’s mother was suddenly arrested.
The charge is harboring and abetting a criminal; it was Xiao Bingqi who turned her in. Li Xiaoru just ca to find Cheng Guo, but he wasn’t there and told instead. After thinking it over, I figured that coming to you would be the most convenient.”
After pondering for a mont, Chuxia agreed, “Alright, I’ll ask around.”
“Wait a minute,” Wu Jingbo stopped Chuxia, “I’m not one to ddle in other people’s affairs, and I know you’re not either, but after weighing this matter carefully, I still ca to ask for your help.
It wasn’t easy for Cheng Guo and Li Xiaoru to co together. Previously, Li Xiaoru was nearly assaulted by that thug Xiao Yuwen. It was to save Li Xiaoru that Cheng Guo hurriedly submitted the marriage report. I really don’t want to see any more troubles arise in their marriage plans.
However, if Li Xiaoru’s mother intentionally helped Xiao Bingqi, then she deserves to be punished. But if she had compelling reasons, I beg you to please plead with Regintal Commander Zhou on her behalf.”
“Alright.” Chuxia agreed and then asked puzzlingly, “How do you know that Zhou Mikang is in charge of this case?”
“When the Zhou family had troubles, it was the Xiao family who sched against them. Now that the Zhou family has turned the tables, naturally, they’ll want to deal with Xiao Bingqi,” Wu Jingbo stated as if it were obvious.
“Okay, I was confused. It makes sense,” Chuxia considered, “It’s not convenient to discuss this matter over the phone. Zhou Mikang isn’t the type to act rashly. I’ll go directly to him after work and ask about this issue. Tell Cheng Guo and you too, let him not worry.”
“Alright.” Wu Jingbo let out a sigh of relief, “I was just so anxious because Li Xiaoru was crying her eyes out to . But really, Regintal Commander Zhou certainly wouldn’t wrong people indiscriminately like the Xiao family father and son. I really worried for nothing.”
“You seem to have a pretty good relationship with Brother Cheng,” Chuxia teased with a smile.
“Yeah, now I treat him like my own brother,” Wu Jingbo nudged Chuxia, “I know what you’re insinuating, but keep those comnts to yourself. Just say them in front of if you must, but don’t ever ntion it in front of Brother Cheng. He’s delicate and won’t take it well. Besides, if Li Xiaoru misunderstands, I won’t be able to clear my na even if I jump into the Yellow River.”
“If you have nothing to hide, why explain so much?” Chuxia glanced at the ti, “I’ll go and inform the teacher, and then I’ll go handle this matter for you right away.”
“Thanks.” Wu Jingbo bowed to Chuxia and hurried back to his office. Li Xiaoru was still waiting there anxiously. Upon seeing her enter, Li Xiaoru stood up, her face a portrait of unspeakable concerns.
Wu Jingbo smiled reassuringly at her, “Don’t worry, I’ve already asked a friend for help. If your mother has been wronged, she will surely be okay.”
“Thank you.” Tears started flowing uncontrollably from Li Xiaoru’s eyes again. “My mother must have been frad by Xiao Bingqi. He’s retaliating because I wouldn’t listen to him or go along with Xiao Yuwen’s intentions. It must be so.”
“Alright, stop crying now,” Wu Jingbo said, sowhat headachy as he looked at Li Xiaoru, “Why do you cry so much? They say won are made of water, and you really prove that saying.”
“I’m sorry, I don’t an to cry…” Li Xiaoru wept even harder…
Wu Jingbo suddenly felt especially sympathetic toward Cheng Guo; having such a wife was a real ordeal.
In fact, what she didn’t know was that Li Xiaoru’s crying wasn’t just because her mother had been taken away—there was another, more important reason. If the matter were to be completely unraveled, she and Cheng Guo would probably no longer be able to be together.
Cheng Guo might not mind, but what about his parents? They certainly wouldn’t be indifferent to the issue. Yet she, as her mother’s daughter, couldn’t just watch her mother being tornted and wronged while she pursued her own happiness unperturbed. (To be continued.
