Chapter 93 Huo Jingyuan is seriously injured!
As the music began, the curtain slowly rose, and Wen Ci and Yu Qing stood on the left and right sides of the stage, with seven or eight drums placed on a stand on the stage.

Wen Ci held her water sleeves, and when the curtain reached the top, she smiled and flicked them out in rhythm with the music. The flowing water sleeves were very obedient in Wen Ci's hands.

The audience was shocked when the water sleeves struck the drum surface.

They didn't stand in front of the drum to strike it; their bodies were about a meter away from the drumhead, and they struck the drumhead with their long water sleeves.

The makeup on their faces was also different from that of the female soldiers in the cultural troupe.

Although they were dancing, the beauty marks under their eyes were particularly eye-catching, and even soldiers who had seen Yu Qing before couldn't quite recognize whether the person on stage was actually Yu Qing.

A soldier from the Fifth Regiment asked, "Brother Xue, who is our sister-in-law?"

"The one on the left is my sister-in-law, and the one on the right is Dr. Yu."

"What?! It really is Dr. Yu on the right! She's so beautiful!"

The family compound also praised it highly.

"Wen Ci is so beautiful! She looks like a fairy descended from heaven in this dress, as beautiful as an angel!" Zhu Jing and the others praised her without any reservations.

"Yeah."

After the song ended, Wen Ci and Yu Qing held each other's hands and bowed to all the audience members before the curtain slowly descended.

Yu Qing gritted her teeth, looked at Wen Ci with sincere eyes, and said nervously, "Wen Ci, even if I get punished by my superiors, I have to tell you."

Seeing Yu Qing's expression, Wen Ci frowned. She had a bad feeling, and her heart was pounding wildly for some reason.

The joyful expression on Wen Ci's face faded, his throat bobbed, his eyes deepened, and he slowly asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

"Commander Huo is seriously injured and is currently unconscious. I heard this from the dean's office. He has been rushed to a hospital in Beijing."

Beijing, as the capital, ranks first in the country in terms of medical care.

"how come?!"

Wen Ci's eyes were filled with disbelief. Was the probability of getting injured on a mission really that high?!

"From what I overheard, it was a city on the frontier that experienced a citywide riot, resulting in heavy casualties. It was only after a fully armed army was dispatched that the riot was quelled."

Wen Ci's lips trembled slightly: "Then, then Huo Jingyuan belongs to which category?"

"Huo Jingyuan should be one of the first troops stationed there, which is why he is unconscious..."

As if a string had snapped in Wen Ci's mind, her eyes went numb, and she shook her head, forcing a smile to comfort herself: "It's okay, Huo Jingyuan is the strongest soldier king in the Northwest, he will definitely be able to turn bad luck into good."

Tears welled in her eyes, but she quickly regained her resolve.

"I have to go to the capital."

"I'll accompany you."

The Northwest is far from the capital, and it would take three or four days just to travel by slow train. Yu Qing held Wen Ci's hand and comforted her, "I'll take my annual leave and go to the capital with you."

She has been in the Northwest Military Region for less than a year.

She was not good at talking and only had colleagues around her. She had only known Wen Ci for a short time, but Wen Ci was the first friend she made after coming to the Northwest Military Region.

After stepping off the stage, Wen Ci didn't bother to change out of her flowing sleeves. Holding them tightly, she scanned the playground but couldn't find any members of the Youth League Committee.

Suddenly, Wen Ci remembered Xue Li's strange behavior of avoiding her during the day, so she hurriedly ran to the area where the Fifth Regiment was located and directly asked, "How is Huo Jingyuan now?"

She was certain that Xue Li knew about Huo Jingyuan's situation!
Xue Li's movement of greeting him froze instantly. He opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak. The other brothers in the Fifth Regiment noticed that something was wrong.

"What's wrong? Wasn't the commander on a mission in the new city?"

"What do you mean by that, sister-in-law?" Then, everyone's eyes fell on Xue Li, and the man sitting next to Xue Li nudged him with his elbow, "If you want to know any inside information, tell the brothers."

Sweat poured down Xue Li's forehead, but he forced a smile and said, "It's a mission in the new city. The commander is all-powerful, what could possibly happen to him!"

As he spoke, Xue Li stood up from his seat and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I have something to talk to you about."

Wen Ci lowered his eyelids slightly: "Okay."

Arriving near the military camp building, Xue Li looked around to make sure none of his comrades were there, then sighed, "Sister-in-law, how did you know Brother Huo was injured?"

"Never mind how I know, how is he doing now?"

Xue Li shook his head: "I don't know. All I know for now is that Brother Huo is seriously injured, and the Youth League Committee asked me to contact my family to ask my grandfather to come out of retirement."

"Your grandfather?"

"My grandfather was a top-level director at the Beijing Military Region Hospital."

After becoming a hospital director, most doctors will transition from technical to administrative roles, and their surgical skills will gradually weaken due to a lack of exposure to surgery over the years. The most skilled doctors are still those who spend their entire careers on the front lines.

The Youth League member looked anxious. He had just come downstairs when he saw Wen Ci and Xue Li. He said anxiously, "Wen Ci, you should go back and pack your things right now. I will send someone to escort you back to the capital."

Wen Ci: "..."

Hearing the voice from the Youth League Committee, Wen Ci's heart skipped a beat. "Is he going to die?"

"You're still in surgery, but Minister Jiang wants you to return to Beijing!"

As a minister, Jiang Zhenjun immediately contacted an expert he knew to come to the hospital after learning that Huo Jingyuan was injured. Huo Jingyuan was ostensibly his son-in-law.

Moreover, Chief Huo is highly respected!
Although he has passed away, his only grandson must be taken good care of.

Wen Ci said, "No need to pack anything, I can leave now."

The Youth League Committee member said calmly, "You'll be staying in Beijing for at least two months this time, so you should go home first and pack all your and Comrade Jingyuan's things."

According to the hospital, if he's lucky, Huo Jingyuan will be fine and can be discharged in two months at most. If he's unlucky, he might remain in a coma for several months, and if he's really unlucky…

"I see."

Wen Ci returned home dejectedly, taking clothes out of the closet and packing them into her bag. Suddenly, a red object fell out of her pocket.

I reached out and picked up the marriage certificate.

When she opened the marriage certificate, she saw that her photo with Huo Jingyuan was a composite of theirs, showing the girl's innocent face paired with the man's handsome face.

They look more like siblings than a couple.

Suddenly, a tear fell onto the marriage certificate, and tears streamed uncontrollably down Wen Ci's face as she reached out and touched the face in the photo.

She hasn't taken a photo with Huo Jingyuan yet.

They haven't officially held their wedding banquet together yet.

Wen Ci took a deep breath, her voice trembling. Once Huo Jingyuan recovered, she would fulfill these small wishes one by one.

Xue Li waited for Wen Ci outside the courtyard in his car. Yu Qing, pulling her luggage, knocked on the car window and said, "May I go to the capital with Wen Ci?"

Xue Li rolled down the car window: "The hospital agreed?"

Jiang Ye nodded: "I took half a month off, plus used more than ten days of annual leave in advance, so I have a month to spend with Wen Ci."
