"Thank goodness she's out of danger!" Ye Zhinan heaved a long sigh of relief. "But her calf needs to be treated as soon as possible, or..."
Suddenly, she felt a tight grip on her hand and immediately stopped speaking.
"Let's go back first!"
Qin Yihuai somehow found a wooden board. He and Liu Dongxing carried Liu Ruonan back together.
On the way, Ye Zhinan was already calculating how to treat the injury.
Stop the bleeding, set the bone, and suture the wound.
The girl was vain and mustn't have any scars!
These techniques couldn't be achieved in this era. To save the girl's life, the top priority was to send away the two flustered family members so that she could get some surgical materials from her space.
But how should she put it?
Just as she was wracking her brains, Wang Zhilan suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Miss Ye, everyone says you're extremely skilled in medicine! Please save my daughter!"
She was hoarse and her eyes were bloodshot.
"Go boil some hot water first. We'll do our best!"
Qin Yihuai's clear voice came, like a sedative, which relieved Ye Zhinan and gave the Liu couple a reassurance.
"With Constable Qin and the others here, let's not get in the way."
It was still Liu Dongxing who came through at the critical moment. He helped Wang Zhilan up and walked out the door.
"I'll wait outside."
Before Ye Zhinan could ask him to leave, Qin Yihuai had already walked out.
This man knew her better than her own self.
Pulling herself back to reality, Ye Zhinan glanced at the pale girl on the bed. She quickly took out the surgical equipment from her space and found two universal blood packs.
After a flurry of activity, she slumped to the ground.
She knew that in the past, a surgical operation required the cooperation of several people!
Now she could only rely on Red Bull and Snickers.
Ye Zhinan took a short break and didn't dare to delay for a moment. She quickly called the people outside.
"Sister Wang, come in and help Ruonan tidy up!"
After saying that, her vision went black and she fainted. Fortunately, a pair of strong hands behind her caught her in time.
The sun was shining brightly when Ye Zhinan was woken up by the strong sunlight.
"My field!"
She jumped out of bed. As soon as she stepped out of the room with one foot, she tripped over something and almost fell.
"You're already an adult. Why are you still so careless? As a girl, do you really want to get hurt again?"
Han Xiangmei was holding two bowls in her hands. Her tone was reproachful, but her eyes were full of concern.
"Both of you drink this bowl of sugar water first."
Only then did Ye Zhinan notice that the culprit who had tripped her just now was standing up, patting the dust off his body.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Qin Yihuai respectfully drank up the bowl of soup.
"It tastes really good!"
He didn't even forget to flatter!
Ye Zhinan let out a soft snort and wasn't willing to lag behind.
"Thank you, Mother! I have to go check on the field!"
"No need. The field is fine. Constable Qin has helped your brother clean it up."
Han Xiangmei deliberately emphasized the words "Constable Qin", and her eyes were a bit softer than before.
"I'm going to check on Liu Ruonan!"
Ye Zhinan said and then ran away, but she felt someone closely following her.
"Didn't you sleep all night?"
Looking at Qin Yihuai's dark eye sockets, her heart fluttered slightly.
"I took a little nap, but then you stepped on me and woke me up! Judging from the strength, you should be okay now."
Ye Zhinan rolled her eyes at him, and the flutter in her heart was suppressed.
"What could be wrong with me? I'm just tired from the operation."
"Operation?"
Ye Zhinan realized that she had spoken too quickly and immediately changed the topic.
"The weather in the northern border is really changeable. It was windy last night, but now the sun is shining brightly. Will it snow heavily the day after tomorrow?"
It was just a joking remark, but unexpectedly, it came true.
Qin Yihuai frowned slightly, but when Ye Zhinan looked over, he returned to normal.
"The northern border is different from other places. The environment changes unpredictably, so it's not easy to have a harvest in a year."
"It seems that the road ahead will be long and difficult!"
Ye Zhinan lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her head.
"But crisis also means opportunity!"
Qin Yihuai stared at the smiling woman in front of him and was momentarily dazed.
This smiling face was like a red plum blossom in the cold winter, not afraid of the cold, bright and charming, injecting warmth into his cold heart.
At this moment, a commotion came from ahead. The two looked at each other and quickly ran into Liu Dongxing's house.
The house was in a mess. Liu Dongxing and Wang Zhilan were holding the excited Liu Ruonan.
"Miss Ye, you're just in time. Please take a look at Ruonan!" Wang Zhilan pleaded with tears on her face.
Ye Zhinan quickly walked over and heard Liu Ruonan muttering.
"I won't marry! I won't marry!"
She looked at the two elders in confusion, seeking an explanation, but the next second she understood.
"Your leg is okay!"
"Wasn't I supposed to be lame?" Liu Ruonan said in surprise.
She was different from ordinary women. With a boyish personality, when she woke up and saw her calf wrapped tightly in white cloth, she thought she would have to rely on crutches for the rest of her life. So her strong self - esteem didn't allow her to be a burden to her sweetheart, and she urgently wanted to break off the engagement.
After hearing the reason, Ye Zhinan liked this girl even more, but she still felt something was off.
She patted her chest and promised, "You're not lame at all, and there won't be any scars. I'll definitely make sure you get married in style!"
"Are you serious?"
Liu Ruonan was already very happy to hear that her leg was okay, but she suspected Ye Zhinan was boasting about the scar - free part, but she was too embarrassed to question her.
"Miss Ye, I'm already grateful enough that her leg can be saved!"
"You should rest well first. I'll come to remove the stitches in a few days!"
Ye Zhinan first comforted Liu Ruonan. They would know the result when the stitches were removed.
After leaving the Liu family's house, Qin Yihuai saw that she had a gloomy face and tried to persuade her.
"Even if there are scars, the Liu family won't blame you."
He thought Ye Zhinan was worried about the boast she had made, but actually she was thinking about something else.
"You arranged Ruonan's marriage, right? Why haven't I seen the groom - to - be?"
At a time like this, it was the best opportunity for the man to show his determination and express his love, but not only had he not shown up, he had also let the woman bear the consequences.
Ye Zhinan gave the man a big negative score in her heart.
Actually, the man had come as soon as he heard the news. When Liu Ruonan was in a coma, he had come to check that she was out of danger and then left due to propriety.
Qin Yihuai didn't refute. He admitted his mistake and calmly explained the situation.
After hearing his explanation, Ye Zhinan realized that she had wrongly blamed him.
"I was just too worried. Don't blame me!"
She lowered her head to admit her mistake. As she fidgeted with the hem of her skirt, she noticed a big tear in the hem of his clothes.
Suddenly, the scene of her grabbing randomly before fainting yesterday flashed through her mind, and her face turned red.
At this moment, Chen Zhenhai ran over from afar, out of breath.
"Boss, I finally found you!"
After standing still, he saw Ye Zhinan beside him.
"Miss Ye, are you feeling unwell? Why is your face so red?"
After Chen Zhenhai said this, Qin Yihuai immediately turned his head and stared at the woman beside him, then punched Chen Zhenhai.
"Why did you come here? What happened?"
