Chapter 1164: A Little Helper
When he heard the people in the army address Ning Shu as Doctor Zhu and saw that they seemed to respect her, he felt like there were countless ants crawling in his heart.
He really wanted to tell these people that this woman wasn’t a respectable person at all, that she was just someone who had been sold to be a servant ever since she had been a child.
Furthermore, from start to finish, this woman ignored him as if he was just air. She completely disregarded him. Fang Feifei was also busy every day with taking photos and only came to take care of him once the battle ended.
Whenever Zhu Yanqiu saw Ning Shu, he’d feel very uncomfortable, and whenever he saw Fang Feifei, he’d also feel uncomfortable, because Fang Feifei was now already ahead of him. He didn’t have anything left anymore, so he was scared that Fang Feifei would leave him.
But his injury… Zhu Yanqiu pressed his lips together and resolved to head to the battlefield next time. If he kept squandering time like this, even Zhu Suniang would become more capable than him.
Fang Feifei returned while holding her camera. When she saw Zhu Yanqiu’s gloomy expression, she asked, “Does your shoulder still hurt?”
Zhu Yanqiu hid his dark expression and reached out to wipe Fang Feifei’s face since there was mud on her face. “It’s good that you’re ok, I’m always worried about you all the time.”
“I’m fine,” said Fang Feifei as she played with her camera. “I took a lot of photos again today. These photos are all evidence of the invaders invading our country.”
Zhu Yanqiu smiled. “Feifei, you’re amazing.”
Fang Feifei smiled sweetly at Zhu Yanqiu, then glanced at Ning Shu who was busy with treating a soldier’s wound. As she watched Ning Shu treat the wound while explaining the process to Xiao Tong with a stern expression, her gaze flickered.
Ning Shu basically had to work until midnight every day, and this was even with Xiao Tong’s help. Xiao Tong was a quiet child. Perhaps it was because she had suffered a lot at a young age and it made her feel a little inferior. However, she was very energetic in doing work and often poured tea and water for Ning Shu.
Ning Shu had fasting pills so when she got really hungry, she would just take a fasting pill, hence she always gave Xiao Tong half of her food. Being a military doctor was very physical work. She wouldn’t be able to hold up if she didn’t have enough physical strength.
Ning Shu’s actions practically angered Zhu Yanqiu to death. He was Zhu Suniang’s husband! Even if he couldn’t be said to be her husband, he was still her young master! Not only did she ignore him most of the time and didn’t get him anything to eat, she treated an outsider better than him!?
Zhu Yanqiu wanted to explode at Ning Shu, but he had to take into consideration his health. He still needed her to treat his wound, and no matter who you offended, you shouldn’t offend the doctor. After all, no one could guarantee that he wouldn’t get injured on the battlefield.
When Ning Shu saw that Zhu Yanqiu was glaring at her with red eyes again, looking constipated, she was very speechless. She turned to Xiao Tong and said, “Go to sleep. There’ll be even more to do tomorrow.”
Xiao Tong nodded, then asked Ning Shu, “Master, want me to get you some water to wash up?”
Ning Shu waved dismissively. “Just go to sleep, there’s no need to do these things.”
In this kind of situation, who had the time to worry about whether they were clean were not? Ning Shu could even smell the sweat on her body, but she only needed to guarantee that her hands were clean. The rest could just be endured.
