Chapter 203: The 8_1 She Doesn’t Know
"Bro, your comrades from the army are here to visit you." Seeing He Teng open his eyes, He Zhilan stepped aside, allowing his comrades to come forward. Kang Xing’s loud voice amused Zhilan so much that she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
"Squad leader, why did you leave standing tall and return on your back? The doctor just said that you’ll need at least three months to recover before returning to training. A lot of us envy you, you know!"
"Envy your ghost!" Niu Rang gave Kang Xing a contemptuous look, secretly thinking, is this guy a fool? Who’d envy someone who’s suffered so much injury?
Feeling mocked, Kang Xing touched the tip of his nose, muttering, "I was just trying to lighten the mood, worrying that sister-in-law would feel bad seeing squad leader like this." He then approached He Zhilan, excitedly saying, "Sister-in-law, do you know? Our Squad Leader He displayed great bravery this time. Although two people were injured in the process, the mission was still excellently completed. The team has awarded our squad leader a first-class merit!"
Whether or not it was a first-class merit, Zhilan was in no mood to rejoice. If he had come out of it unscathed, she would have been delighted for He Teng. However, he had suffered so much for it, the price for this merit was just too high.
To go back to training in just three months, He Teng would have to be in his best condition, not taking into account the worst-case scenario the doctors had foreseen.
Nevertheless, even though her heart was not in it, He Zhilan did not let it show on her face. She smiled at the two of them, then said she was going off to wash fruits for everyone. She asked them to stay in the ward with He Teng for a while.
