On the night the Shanghai socialite accompanied the military officer, he broke his vow.

Chapter 85: Draw a cigarette every time you see it

Jiang Peng refused without hesitation, practically writing "Don't even think about getting involved" on his face.

Fearing that Wang Fang would come after him again, Jiang Peng quickly quickened his pace and headed up the mountain.

He was truly afraid of Wang Fang.

This person can turn black into white.

Previously, after Wang Fang confessed her feelings to Jiang Peng and was rejected, Jiang Peng still treated her as a colleague and did not avoid her like a wolf or tiger as he does now.

The reason he's avoiding Wang Fang now is because she's a terrible rumor-monger. He was just having a normal work-related conversation with her, but it got twisted and distorted when it reached other people's ears.

It was as if there really was something between him and Wang Fang.

They initially thought a colleague had misunderstood their relationship, but upon inquiring, they discovered that Wang Fang herself had spread those rumors!
Jiang Peng emphasized this point several times, and Wang Fang readily agreed on the surface, but behind his back she acted completely differently.

Jiang Peng was speechless and started avoiding Wang Fang from then on.

Can't you afford to hide if you can't offend him?
Someone in the crowd chuckled, instantly radiating sarcasm.

"Wang Fang, Dr. Jiang's attitude is already clear enough, isn't it? Why are you still bothering her?"

"Exactly, you can't force a relationship. If you want to get married, just find someone else. Why are you so hung up on one person?"

Two female doctors couldn't bear to watch any longer and kindly offered a few words of advice.

"It's none of your business!"

Wang Fang glared at the two of them and stormed off.

The two female doctors, whose good intentions were misunderstood, curled their lip and became even more disgusted with Wang Fang's eager-to-please attitude.

The more eager someone is to please another, the more they will be looked down upon. However, since it was Wang Fang's own wishful thinking, they will never say another word about it again.

Wang Fang, who had just been complaining about the slippery road, lowered her head and walked a long way in a fit of anger until she was panting heavily before slowing down.

She looked up and saw Lin Xiaoxiao and Song Jinyue walking in front of her.

Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's laughter from ahead, Wang Fang tightened her grip on the medicine box, a deep resentment flashing in her eyes.

If it weren't for Lin Xiaoxiao, why would Dr. Jiang be avoiding her?
That despicable Lin Xiaoxiao has embarrassed her time and time again; this time she won't let her get away with it!

Thinking of this, Wang Fang approached Lin Xiaoxiao with a hateful expression.

Just as she was about to pretend to slip and push Lin Xiaoxiao to the ground, Song Jinyue happened to notice her action when she turned her head unintentionally.

"Xiaoxiao, watch out!"

Song Jinyue quickly pulled Lin Xiaoxiao closer to her, causing Wang Fang to miss her target and fall to the ground.

"Ouch!"

Wang Fang cried out in pain.

This time, my foot really slipped.

Before she could react, Song Jinyue squatted down in front of her with a stern face and grabbed her collar.

"If you want to go crazy, go somewhere else. Don't have any funny ideas about Xiaoxiao. Do you know that if you had pushed Xiaoxiao just now, she could have fallen off the mountain?"

This mountain road was already rugged and uneven, and now that it's rained, it's even more slippery, making it extremely dangerous. I never expected that Wang Fang, that idiot, would actually try to push Lin Xiaoxiao.

Song Jinyue's almond-shaped eyes, clear and bright, were now as cold as a deep pool, and she exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Wang Fang was stunned when she saw Song Jinyue get angry for the first time.

In her mind, Song Jinyue was a gentle and elegant young lady. She never expected that Song Jinyue would grab her collar in front of everyone!

Looking at Song Jinyue's aloof face, Wang Fang belatedly recalled her exploits of infiltrating the human traffickers' hideout and taking them down one-on-one. Knowing she'd met her match this time, she unconsciously swallowed hard.

"I-I didn't mean it!"

Song Jinyue: "...I'm not blind. You'd better keep your shady schemes to yourself. If I find out you're targeting Xiaoxiao again, don't blame me..."

Before Song Jinyue could finish speaking, Lin Xiaoxiao, who had come to her senses, rushed forward and slapped Wang Fang across the face twice.

"You, Wang Fang, actually tried to harm me? You've really got some nerve! Just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean you can take me for a cat!"

"I'm warning you, who you like has absolutely nothing to do with me. Don't bother me with men anymore, or I'll beat you every time I see you!"

After saying that, Lin Xiaoxiao took Song Jinyue's arm.

"Jin Yue, let's go. I have trypophobia and I hate being around people who are cunning!"

After Lin Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she glared angrily at Wang Fang.

She hadn't reacted at first, but now, looking to the side, she didn't dare to imagine what would have happened if Jin Yue hadn't grabbed her.

She was afraid of pain and valued her life. The thought of Wang Fang succeeding just now terrified her so much that her hair stood on end.

The others looked at Wang Fang, who was lying on the ground after being slapped twice.

Why do I feel a little good?

With Wang Fang no longer causing trouble, everyone focused on their journey and soon arrived at the cave where the villagers were taking shelter from the rain.

Upon seeing Song Jinyue and the others carrying medicine boxes, a man who looked to be in his fifties excitedly came forward to greet them.

"Are you comrades who came to help? I am the village chief of Dahe Village. Thank you for your hard work."

"This is what we should do, village chief. How many wounded are there in total?"

“Our village has a total of 125 people. I just counted them, and 86 of them are injured. There are also children with colds and fevers. Please help them get medical treatment as soon as possible.”

As the village chief spoke, he led the doctors to the cave.

The cave was not a large space, and more than 120 people were crammed together, leaning against the stone wall and dozing off, looking exhausted.

"Everyone, wake up! The army has sent a doctor to save us! We're saved!"

Upon arriving at the cave, the village chief clapped his hands, waking up the dozing villagers.

"The doctor is here! The doctor is here! We're saved!"

The crowd, who had been feeling listless, instantly became excited upon seeing the doctors in their white coats.

"Doctor, please save my daughter. She has had a fever since last night and it hasn't gone down yet."

The woman holding the child in her arms saw Song Jinyue and the others as if they were her saviors. Just as she was about to pick up the child, Song Jinyue strode forward.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll get the child checked right away."

As she spoke, she squatted down in front of the older woman and, while taking the little girl's temperature, her gaze swept across the faces of the villagers.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. Although this rainstorm is fierce and natural disasters are unstoppable, the leaders of the army have been paying close attention to the surrounding situation. After learning that Dahe Village was hit by floods, they immediately sent us to come and provide assistance."

"More than 20 engineering corps comrades are already repairing the river dam. Once the floodwaters recede, everyone can go home."

"We brought enough supplies with us this time to ensure that everyone has enough to eat. You can rest here and recover well, and give the engineering corps comrades some time."

"Until the river dam is repaired, we doctors will stay with everyone. If anyone feels unwell, please let us know immediately."

The gentle yet powerful tone of voice instantly roused the dejected crowd.

"Don't worry, comrade! We will cooperate with the medical treatment, stay here and recover well, and we will definitely not cause you any trouble!"
