Chapter 832: The Bias of Memory
She would occasionally lift her head to glance at Qin Jian standing beside her, a sense of happiness welling up within her.
Qin Jian also noticed Cheng Yu’s gaze and slightly turned his eyes. Their gazes collided in the air, with the joyful emotion in Cheng Yu’s eyes slightly revealed, and her cheeks gradually took on a thin blush.
Qin Jian’s brows furrowed slightly, and his mouth formed a straight line, "Teacher Cheng, you keep looking at me, do you have something to say to me?"
"I..." Cheng Yu was caught off guard by Qin Jian’s question, her mind racing to arrange the words she planned to say to Qin Jian, "Staff Officer Qin, there were some things I didn’t recall at the dinner table, but now while walking, they are coming back to me, bit by bit."
"Oh? Let’s hear them," Qin Jian’s eyes were somewhat enigmatic.
Cheng Yu stopped in her tracks, her gaze resting on Qin Jian’s handsome and resolute face, "I want to ask, Staff Officer Qin, are you the platoon leader who sacrificed himself to save me on the China-Vietnam Battlefield years ago? I vaguely remember that he also had the surname Qin."
"No!" Qin Jian denied it, "There are many people with the surname Qin. I am not the platoon leader you’re looking for."
"Why? I remember... I remember clearly that it was you... Platoon Leader Qin, you were that platoon leader." Cheng Yu’s emotions became somewhat agitated.
Clearly, the person in front of her was him, so why would he refuse to admit it!
"I am certain it wasn’t me!" Qin Jian looked at her with a cool gaze, "If your lifesaver were me, why would I refuse to acknowledge it?"
"Qin Jian, were you injured in the head during that battle? Is that why you can’t remember many things? Look at me, look at my face! I am the medic Cheng Yu from back then! Have you forgotten? On the battlefield, when there was no anesthetic, you used a sharp knife to dig out the bullet with your bare hands! If I am not mistaken, there should be a scar near your shoulder," Cheng Yu closed her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "The right arm! The wound is on the right arm! Do you dare let me see it?"
