High fever caused the metabolic enzymes in the body to be inactivated, resulting in a decrease in appetite. Only porridge and soup would not easily cause nausea, and it could also promote the patient’s appetite and increase nutritional intake.
Xia Jinyuan followed the doctor’s instructions strictly. At the same time, he also ate porridge with Ye Jian.
He was packing the papers and notebook. Ye Jian looked at his hands and frowned.
He had changed to a new sterile gauze. If it was really as he said before that it was just a few small wounds, they would not need to be bandaged like this at all.
Also… Ye Jian seemed to have thought of something. Her relaxed expression tensed up.
When he applied medicinal oil on his back before this, he had used the back of his hand instead of his palm!
Ye Jian pulled the blanket away and got off the bed.
Xia Jinyuan was quicker than her. She had just grabbed the corner of the blanket when he came over with the notebook. “Don’t step down from the bed. We’ll leave the hospital at 11 o’clock at night and head to the second training base. Lie on the bed and rest for a few more hours.”
The fever had subsided and the flush caused by the drug allergy had faded. She could be discharged after a 12-hour observation.
They didn’t have much time to waste. The training progress and time couldn’t be changed because of personal reasons. If Ye Jian hadn’t suffered from an allergic reaction to drugs, she wouldn’t have been sent to the hospital in a helicopter for emergency treatment.
It was normal for them to be sick when training.
Ye Jian grabbed his wrist and looked at him coldly. “It’s serious, right?”
“A little. I didn’t wear my combat gloves when I climbed the ladder of the helicopter. I got injured by the rope.” Looking at her expression, Xia Jinyuan knew that he couldn’t hide it anymore. Hence, he told her the truth.
He told Ye Jian the truth and she felt relieved. “You need to treat your wounds as soon as possible to avoid making things worse when you’re training in the scorching heat of the desert.”
“Don’t worry and lie down on the bed obediently. I’ll go to the canteen.” As he lowered his head, a feather-like soft kiss landed on the tip of her nose. “I’ll be back soon. Take these documents. I’ll go out and get the doctor to come over to take a look. Put the documents under the pillow and keep them properly.”
All the training materials and schedules were military secrets. Other than the relevant personnel, no one else was allowed to read them.
Ye Jian counted 16 sheets of paper. There were pictures, notes, and detailed deployment information.
There were also two notebooks and a map of the desert. She hid all the information under her pillow.
Xia Jinyuan’s smile deepened.
She had always been very meticulous, and it was very reassuring to let her handle things.
After Xia Jinyuan left the ward, Ye Jian, who was wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, immediately got up from the bed. She took out her military backpack from under the bed, loosened the knot, and took out her combat clothes.
If she left at 11 o’clock, she would have to pack up and leave at around 10 o’clock. However, she liked to prepare in advance, so she packed up now.
The doctor who came in with two nurses saw that the patient who was supposed to be lying on the bed was now dressed in the same clothes as a male soldier. She stood tall and straight beside the bed like a pine tree. She looked valiant and exceptionally energetic. It was impossible to tell that she was still sick.
When the two nurses saw Ye Jian in her military uniform, they felt that she was special.
It was rare to see female soldiers in 1999. However, it was the first time they saw a female soldier as beautiful as a star from Hong Kong or Taiwan.
“So cool! It’s such a refreshing sight.”
“She’s so energetic and pretty. Her facial features look like they were painted.. She’s so beautiful.”
