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

After an hour of emergency treatment, Xia Dazhi was ultimately left in the intensive care unit. Xia Qiuran, being a medical staff member, made an exception and allowed her to visit him.

Xia Dazhi lay pale on the hospital bed, his chest heaving violently, and with his last bit of strength, he gripped Xia Qiuran's hand.

"Go home, go home."

"Dad, let's go home once we're cured," Xia Qiuran replied, her eyes also welling up with tears.

"Let's not treat him anymore, Xiaoran. Let's go back to the commune. Dad is so old, it's not worth spending so much money on treatment. You're still young, you must not go astray because of money."

Xia Dazhi's cloudy eyes were like old window paper covered with dust, and the original light in his eyes had become dim. Tears of guilt flowed down the fine lines at the corners of his eyes.

Although Xia Dazhi was just an honest farmer with no special skills, Xia Qiuran had never seen him cry so sadly before. It was all because of Bai Yunyun's words, which made her father think that she had done something immoral to raise money for medical treatment.

"Dad, Bai Yunyun is just talking nonsense. I have money, and I earned it all myself, honestly and openly," Xia Qiuran quickly explained.

Xia Dazhi simply shook his head. Just as Bai Yunyun said, Xia Qiuran was only a reserve soldier in the army; how could she possibly earn that much money in such a short time?

"Don't try to comfort me. No matter what, you're still my good daughter. I just hope you won't do that again. It's not a long-term solution. You should find someone to settle down with."

"After Dad is gone, you must not do that again, otherwise Dad will not rest in peace in the afterlife."

As a father, instead of helping his child, he became a burden to her. Now, Xia Dazhi's eyes are filled with heavy self-blame.

Finally, as if he had made a decision, he closed his eyes. The indicators on the instrument remained abnormal, and Xia Qiuran could not resolve his inner conflict no matter what she said.

With such severe injuries, if one loses the will to live, even a miracle worker would find it difficult to heal.

It seems that only if Bai Yunyun explains herself and admits that she is lying will her father be able to fully believe that she did not do those things.

Xia Qiuran wiped away her tears and ran out quickly.

When they found Bai Yunyun, she was talking to Bai Xia in the office, with Lu Zhenghan sitting next to her.

At this moment, she couldn't care about anything else and walked straight towards Bai Yunyun, glaring at her fiercely with anger in her eyes, but still trying to maintain the last bit of rationality.

"Dr. Bai, please come out with me for a moment."

Bai Yunyun was taken aback. Of course, she understood why Xia Qiuran had come to find her. She swallowed nervously and then tidied her bangs with her hand.

"Xia Qiuran, just say what you have to say here. We probably don't have much to talk about."

"Dr. Xia, what are you doing? Can't you see we're talking? Don't you think it's impolite of you to barge in like this?" Bai Xia thought Xia Qiuran was coming for Lu Zhenghan, so her face immediately turned cold and she scolded her.

"Xia Qiuran, you can say whatever you want here."

Lu Zhenghan glanced at Xia Qiuran and then said.

He knew the two had always been at odds, but since he hadn't seen Bai Yunyun do anything today, he decided to figure things out before making a judgment.

"Okay, then I'll say it right here. She got my father into the emergency room. I want her to go and explain to my father right now that everything she said before was a lie."

Xia Qiuran didn't hide anything and solemnly said it in front of everyone.

Bai Yunyun rolled her eyes and snorted coldly behind Lu Zhenghan.

"Xia Qiuran, what did I say wrong? Your father's surgery is indeed very expensive. I just mentioned it casually and he overheard it. How can you blame me?"

When Lu Zhenghan was there, she only spoke lightly, without revealing all the harsh words she had said at the time.

Lu Zhenghan had only just heard that Xia Qiuran's father was hospitalized here, and he didn't expect that such a thing would happen before he even got there.

After hearing all this, Xia Dazhi had a general idea of ​​what was going on. He figured that Bai Yunyun's mention of the surgery fee had caused Xia Dazhi to become agitated.

He had just come to Bai Xia because he wanted Xia Qiuran to end her internship early, and Bai Xia had agreed that as long as Xia Qiuran finished her shift today, she would sign the internship certificate. So, no conflict could happen today.

"Xia Qiuran, I'll go and explain to your father that there's no need to worry about medical expenses. Is that alright?" Lu Zhenghan suggested, not wanting to escalate the conflict further.

"No, she's the one who caused this trouble; she has to explain herself."

Xia Qiuran's attitude was very tough. She stared at Lu Zhenghan with sharp eyes and showed no intention of backing down. After speaking, she stared straight at Bai Yunyun, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes.

"I'll ask you one more time, are you going or not?"

Bai Yunyun glanced at Lu Zhenghan out of the corner of her eye and vaguely sensed a hint of tension between them. She lowered her head, rolled her eyes, and when she looked up again, her eyes were already filled with tears. She leaned towards Lu Zhenghan unconsciously and pretended to be weak.

"Commander, I'm scared. This really isn't my fault. I just told the truth, and I didn't know Xia Qiuran's father was unaware of the medical expenses."

A look of disgust flashed across Xia Qiuran's eyes. Bai Yunyun's tone was so disgusting that she felt like vomiting. How could someone lie so naturally?

Her father was still waiting, and she didn't have time to explain further. Besides, it was Bai Yunyun's fault to begin with, so there was nothing to explain. She hurriedly grabbed her arm and tried to pull her out.

"Come with me."

"What are you doing? I'm not going. This has nothing to do with me."

Bai Yunyun looked extremely frightened, tears welled up in her eyes, her weak voice trembled with sobs, and she timidly grabbed Lu Zhenghan's sleeve.

"Commander, I didn't say anything. The cost of the medicine was exactly what it was. I didn't lie to anyone."

Bai Xia, being an old fox, naturally saw through the current situation. Lu Zhenghan's failure to directly help Xia Qiuran meant he was siding with his niece, so she quickly lowered her stance and showed weakness.

"Dr. Xia, I know you are a highly skilled doctor, but everything should be done reasonably. You can't be so unreasonable."

With just one sentence, Xia Qiuran was placed in the position of making trouble out of nothing, and the words implied that Xia Qiuran was wrong.

"Xia Qiuran, I understand how you feel right now. I'll go and explain to your father. I promise I'll make sure everything is clear."

Seeing that Xia Qiuran had lost her temper, Lu Zhenghan stepped forward and stood in front of Bai Yunyun.

Xia Qiuran saw this as Lu Zhenghan standing up for Bai Yunyun.

She gripped Bai Yunyun's sleeve with one hand, her knuckles turning white from the tension, and a surge of suppressed anger rushed to her head.

Xia Qiuran suddenly realized that the reason why Lu Zhenghan suddenly disliked her and treated her coldly was because of Bai Yunyun.

But it would be better to just say it outright. Why hide it? Would she really stop him?

"Commander, she said so many vicious things, causing my father to be injured a second time and lose his will to live. Shouldn't we ask her to clarify things? Is that too much to ask?"

Xia Qiuran's expression was serious, but she still held a glimmer of hope for Lu Zhenghan, hoping that he could distinguish right from wrong as before, or at least bring Bai Yunyun to the ward to confront him.

However, Lu Zhenghan did not answer immediately, and tried to comfort Xia Qiuran.
