Lin Haoran frowned. “Only your hand is scalded, but Xiaoyu’s entire face is affected! If it’s serious, her face might be disfigured! No matter what the cause was, you shouldn’t be this vicious!”
“I’m vicious?!” Gu Yan already knew what sort of person Lin Haoran was. Hence, she wasn’t even that upset when she heard the accusation. A smile bloomed on her face, but it didn’t contain any warmth.
“Captain Lin, your precious little sister used boiling water to injure my face. Why don’t you call her vicious?”
Lin Haoran was stunned and looked back at the crying Lin Xiaoyu.
Lin Xiaoyu stiffened and immediately denied it.
“I didn’t! I wasn’t holding my water bottle steadily, and you just threw your water tub at me!”
She was the one who received a much serious injury! She will be firm in claiming Gu Yan intentionally harmed her.
Shen Nana only instructed her to throw boiled water at Gu Yan’s hand. That way, Gu Yan wouldn’t be able to participate in the shooting competition tomorrow. By then, she can even pretend it was an accident.
For Lin Xiaoyu, she didn’t care at all whether the Logistics Department could win or not.
She had no sense of belonging within the department anyway.
Now that things had escalated to this degree and her face seemed to be ruined, she couldn’t let the opportunity go to waste.
Gu Yan had to be blamed for this incident!
Lin Xiaoyu hated Gu Yan for making her good friend Guo Rou withdraw from her.
Moreover, her face was burning with intense pain. If she ended up disfigured, what should she do?!
Thinking about this, Lin Xiaoyu cried out even harder.
The nurse quickly reminded, “Comrade Lin Xiaoyu, stop crying. It would infect the wound on your face. What if it leaves a scar?”
“What? There would be scars on my face?” Lin Xiaoyu was taken aback and wailed even harder.
The medical staff looked at each other.
‘Is she even a soldier?’
Her face wasn’t disfigured yet though.
‘Why is she crying so much?’
But then, Lin Xiaoyu was Lin Haoran’s sister, so they couldn’t voice out their thoughts.
Lin Haoran looked at the miserable state of his sister. His expression turned unnatural.
He looked disappointedly at Gu Yan.
“Comrade Gu Yan, I don’t know what enmity you have with Xiaoyu, but I can’t forgive you for hurting a fellow soldier like this.”
“Captain Lin, you said one thing right. I can’t ever forgive Lin Xiaoyu for hurting a fellow soldier like that!” Gu Yan stood firmly.
Lin Xiaoyu looked at Gu Yan with hatred. “My injuries are worse than yours. What evidence do you have to prove that I hurt you intentionally?”
Gu Yan stopped the doctor from fixing up her hand. She raised it and said, “What right do you have to say your injuries are more serious? Only your face was affected. The area might be wider, but it’s only a second-degree burn. It’s slightly red and painful, but there aren’t any blisters. That’s because, after you threw the water at me, I blocked it with my tub. It’s winter right now. When the water landed back on your face, the temperature dropped. Therefore, the degree of your burn would be lighter. My hand was holding the tub then and had contact with the water first. There are blisters now. It’s a third-degree burn.”
Thereafter, Gu Yan looked at Doctor Yan and asked for confirmation. “Am I right, Doctor Yan?”
