The younger sister mistakenly identified her brother when visiting relatives and was kissed by the c

"As long as she's sincere to me now, as long as she's a good person, why should I hold grudges about the past? Besides, what your friend went through is usually not one person's fault, but mostly the fault of the bad guys. In life, who hasn't encountered a few bad people or taken a few wrong turns? As long as the person is still the same, nothing else matters."

Hearing those last few words, Qiao Xinxin's eyes welled up slightly. The huge stone that had been hanging over her heart, making it hard to breathe, finally settled completely at that moment. The suffocation and fear that had been weighing on her heart for days vanished in an instant.

But then, reason returned, and she immediately realized that her eager questioning earlier was far too obvious and too suggestive!

She quickly lowered her head, trying to hide her flushed cheeks, and hurriedly added, "Oh... I see. Well, then you soldiers must all think about the same thing, right? If my friend knew your opinion, he should... he should be able to rest easy."

After she finished speaking, she herself felt that her attempt to make amends was too dry and awkward, and it was simply self-deception!

Looking at her adorable, "I'm hiding something" expression, Lu Baizhou rubbed his fingers together at his sides, forcibly suppressing the urge to ruffle her hair, and nodded seriously in agreement: "Yes, that should be it."

Qiao Xinxin breathed a slight sigh of relief, but she still felt her face burning like fire, and her heart was still pounding. She really didn't dare to stand there and talk to him anymore.

She quickly and abruptly changed the subject, pointing to his bandaged arm and saying rapidly, "Um... Brother Lu, you need to be careful with your arm injury too! You should go back and rest well, and remember not to overexert yourself. Teacher Lin... yes, Teacher Lin should still be waiting for me in her office, I need to go in and study first!"

"Okay, go ahead, don't keep Minister Lin waiting." Lu Baizhou nodded, his eyes deep.

Qiao Xinxin felt as if she had been granted a pardon. She turned around and, like a rabbit being chased by a big bad wolf, quickly walked towards Lin Zhengping's office. She walked extremely fast, not daring to even look back.

Lu Baizhou stood there, watching her fleeing figure, and finally couldn't help but chuckle softly. The laughter was deep and pleasant, resonating in his chest.

This silly girl, she can remember everything she read when she's reading medical books and she's incredibly smart, how come she's so confused when it comes to her own affairs? She doesn't even remember that the man from that night was him?

On the other side, when Qiao Xinxin ran into Lin Zhengping's office, the blush on her face had not completely faded, and her breathing was a little unsteady.

She sat down abruptly in the chair, picked up the glass of cold water on the table, took a sip, and took several deep breaths before she could finally calm her heartbeat and appear to have returned to normal.

Lin Zhengping was writing a lesson plan when he glanced up at her, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Why is your face so red? Is it very hot outside?"

"No, no!" Qiao Xinxin quickly lowered her head, pretending to seriously flip through the "Compendium of Materia Medica" on the table. "I just ran over here. I was in a bit of a hurry and got hot."

Lin Zhengping saw through her intentions but didn't say anything, and didn't press the matter further. He took out a piece of paper covered in writing from the drawer and pushed it in front of her: "Now that you've grasped the basics, today we'll start teaching you some simple compounding logic. These are some basic formulas for common external wound medicines used in our troops. Take a close look at the combinations on this paper, then think about them yourself and tell me what you think their characteristics and advantages are."

Qiao Xinxin steadied herself, took the paper, and glanced at it. Three prescriptions were written on it in pen, all for external use. Each prescription contained only four or five ingredients, but a quick glance revealed the brilliance of the combinations—the exquisite pairing of those seemingly ordinary herbs…

The office of the military medical department had a faint smell of disinfectant mixed with traditional Chinese medicine.

Qiao Xinxin sat quietly in front of the old wooden table, holding three thin prescription papers in her hand.

She lowered her head, her bright eyes scanning the lines of medicine names, her mind racing.

After a long while, she finally raised her head, cleared her throat, and said to Lin Zhengping, who was standing to the side, "Teacher Lin, I noticed that this first prescription uses mostly cooling herbs like honeysuckle and forsythia, which can reduce internal heat. I'm thinking it's specifically for treating sores and inflammation caused by heat toxins, right?"

"Look at this second prescription. Goodness, it has a lot of strong blood-activating and stasis-removing herbs like safflower and notoginseng. At the end, it also has a special herb to 'guide' the medicine to the wound. This is definitely for soldiers to treat bruises, sprains, swelling and pain."

"As for the third prescription, the herbs in it have very strong astringent properties, so it should be specifically used to quickly stop bleeding and help the wound scab over and close up sooner."

Lin Zhengping was drinking water from an enamel mug when he heard Qiao Xinxin's words. He was so surprised that he forgot to swallow and his eyes lit up.

He slammed his teacup down on the table, nodding repeatedly in praise: "Excellent! Truly excellent! Xinxin, you're a real medical prodigy! Although you haven't formally learned how to take a pulse or diagnose and prescribe medicine yet, just by recognizing the properties of these herbs, you can guess the purpose of these prescriptions with remarkable accuracy. Your comprehension is incredible! Your next task is simply to memorize these three basic prescriptions, as well as all the extended prescriptions derived from them, until you know them by heart and can recite them backwards!"

Qiao Xinxin felt quite pleased with her teacher's praise. Being obedient and hardworking, she didn't hesitate and carefully reviewed the three prescriptions several more times.

She silently recited the instructions in her mind, memorizing the dosage and proportions of each medicinal herb.

Only when he could close his eyes and recite the three prescriptions from memory without missing a single word, confirming that he had truly memorized them, did he carefully fold the precious pages neatly and tuck them into the faded coarse cloth bag he carried with him.

In order to thoroughly understand what she had learned today, Qiao Xinxin was in no hurry to leave.

She stayed in the military medical department for another hour or so, sitting there and repeatedly reviewing the pharmacology knowledge that Lin Zhengping had taught that day in her mind, like watching a movie. It wasn't until lunchtime, when her stomach started to rumble in protest, that she stood up and respectfully said goodbye to Teacher Lin.
