The aloof military doctor arrives at the unit, and the tough guy can't sit still.

Zhong Wenmei then brought a small mirror and placed it in front of Xia Qiuran.

Xia Qiuran saw in the mirror that her lips were slightly flushed, and when she touched them gently, they felt a little painful.

In the storage room, the scene of giving Lu Zhenghan artificial respiration unconsciously surfaced in her mind, and the tips of her ears suddenly turned red.

Zhong Wenmei noticed Xia Qiuran's unconscious expression and immediately leaned over with a gossipy look on her face.

"Why are you getting shy? Did someone kiss your lips? Tell me, how far have things progressed between you and Commander Lu?"

Zhong Wenmei's eyes were full of curiosity.

To inhale like that, you must use a lot of strength.

Thinking about this even at the brink of life and death is truly thrilling.

"What do you mean 'kiss'? He got burned by something inside."

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to check on the commander."

Xia Qiuran's ears turned even redder. She replied and turned to get out of bed.

But after taking only a few steps, I still felt dizzy.

Zhong Wenmei quickly helped her up.

"Are you alright? I just checked on Commander Lu, he's fine. You should rest a bit more."

Xia Qiuran paused for a moment, "I'm fine, just walk slowly. He went through so much danger because of me, I won't feel at ease if I don't go and check on him."

Xia Qiuran walked much slower this time, and Zhong Wenmei was completely baffled by what she was saying.

Aren't you two in a romantic relationship? Why do you feel so distant?

They must have kissed, and he felt embarrassed, so he said those things on purpose.

It must be like this.

Xia Qiuran arrived at Lu Zhenghan's ward and found a room full of people gathered around his bed.

She stood at the doorway, watching Lu Zhenghan lean against the headboard from afar, his lips pale and his complexion not looking good. Her heartstrings tugged at her.

Electric shock damages the heart and blood vessels, and inhaling so much thick smoke would be unbearable even for someone with an iron body.

"Commander Lu, Yuan Qiaoling has been detained at the station. We just need to complete the chain of evidence before she can be sentenced."

In the ward, Director Yu Zheng of the Public Security Bureau spoke first.

"Thank you for your trouble, Director Yu." Lu Zhenghan's jawline was tense, a cold, hard curve appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with icy frost.

At this moment, a short man of medium build standing nearby pushed up his glasses and stepped forward somewhat embarrassedly.

"Commander Lu, look at this mess. It's all my fault for not managing things properly. I will definitely strengthen the management of the other teachers when I get back."

"Principal Wen, this is not your fault. It is Yuan Qiaoling's own dishonesty. It has nothing to do with you or the school."

Lu Zhenghan did not say much about the apology from Wen Liangcai, the principal of the medical vocational school.

If he hadn't known Yuan Qiaoling beforehand, none of this would have happened. Ultimately, Lu Zhenghan could tell whose fault it was and wouldn't drag others into it just because he was injured.

"Alright, I'm fine. Everyone go about your business. You don't need to stay with me."

Seeing Xia Qiuran standing at the door, Lu Zhenghan's expression gradually softened, and he quickly spoke.

"Okay, Zhenghan, then we won't disturb your rest any longer."

After they had finished explaining the situation, the two said goodbye and left the ward together.

Only Zhou Guangming remained in the room, sitting on a chair by the bed with his brows deeply furrowed.

There's really no need to discuss this anymore; anyone with eyes can see who's right and who's wrong.

However, Yuan Qiaoling's mother had saved Lu Zhenghan's father after all. She had just spoken to Lu Zhenghan's grandparents on the phone, and the two elders also wanted to calm things down first and wait for them to arrive before making any further decisions.

"Zhenghan, Yuan Qiaoling's mother and your grandparents are on their way. Let's wait until they arrive to discuss the final decision regarding Yuan Qiaoling."

Zhou Guangming pursed his lips several times, unable to bring himself to say the words of urging him to forgive, and could only try to comfort him.

"Uncle Zhou, Yuan Qiaoling has made a serious mistake this time. She's trying to kill someone to silence them. There's no point in pleading for her."

Seeing Zhou Guangming's troubled expression, Lu Zhenghan had already guessed what he was going to say and answered seriously.

"Yes, I'm also very angry about this. If anything happens to you, I will absolutely not let her off the hook."

"But your father's side... after all, his mother saved his life, and Yuan Qiaoling has visited them frequently over the years, which puts the old chief in a difficult position."

Zhou Guangming's voice was not loud, and his tone clearly lacked confidence.

Lu Zhenghan's pale face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, his voice was devoid of warmth, and a dark flame was always faintly burning in his eyes.

"Uncle Zhou, if she only wanted to harm me, I could forgive her this time to make up for the debt of her mother saving my father. But now she has harmed more than just me. I have to give Xia Qiuran an explanation."

"But Zheng Han, putting aside official business, isn't it all because Yuan Qiaoling likes you too much and is unwilling to see you with Xia Qiuran, that she's been blinded by jealousy?"

Zhou Guangming continued, but couldn't help thinking to himself that Yuan Qiaoling's actions were extreme due to jealousy, but her age and status were still a factor. Being too young inevitably leads to impulsive actions, and insisting on severe punishment would be too inhumane.

Lu Zhenghan's eyes suddenly darkened, like the sky before a storm.

"Uncle Zhou, these are not reasons for her to harm others. Even if Xia Qiuran forgives, it should be out of her own free will, not a choice she makes under duress."

"Besides, someone like Yuan Qiaoling may appear obedient and docile on the outside, but she is actually more venomous than a snake. If she is not severely punished this time, she will likely harm others in the future."

Seeing Lu Zhenghan's resolute attitude, Zhou Guangming said no more. Such a thing would be hard to forgive even for anyone, and he shouldn't force anything.

"Alright, Yuan Qiaoling really went too far in this matter. I won't try to persuade you anymore. I'll bring them over once the old commander arrives. You haven't seen each other for a long time, and they miss you."

After saying that, he walked out and saw Xia Qiuran waiting at the door.

Zhou Guangming sighed deeply and then said.

"Xia, you've been wronged today."

"I'm not wronged, Political Commissar Zhou. It's just that the regimental commander was really dragged down by me this time. Comrade Yuan wanted to kill me, and the regimental commander was in great danger to save me. After he went into the storeroom, someone threw an electrified wire into the room. I was able to escape death this time thanks to that aunt who was knocked unconscious but stubbornly stood up."

"If she hadn't brought people over, the commander and I would definitely be lying in the morgue on the basement floor right now."

Xia Qiuran's eyes were calm and her tone was unhurried, without a trace of complaint, as if she were not the one who had just been murdered.

After speaking, he appeared emotionless and even very magnanimous, but in reality, he clearly recounted all of Yuan Qiaoling's misdeeds.

Zhong Wenmei just briefly told her what happened after she fainted.

The plump auntie also came to the hospital for treatment. When the police were taking her statement, Zhong Wenmei clearly heard the plump auntie say that when she went to find the keys, she was hit from behind with a stick, and then she didn't know anything. She didn't know how long it was before she woke up and saw smoke coming out of the storage room. She didn't care about her wound and quickly ran to call for help.

The wire that Lu Zhenghan had disconnected was probably put back in by Yuan Qiaoling.

If locking her in the storage room was out of jealousy and a momentary impulse, then knowing that Lu Zhenghan was inside and still trying to kill her again, then it's not as simple as just jealousy.
