Chapter 589: What’s the Matter

“What’s the matter?” The nurse followed Zhai Sheng from afar, wanting to take a few more looks at Zhai Sheng. She intended to wait until he reached the dormitory before she came up with an excuse to enter Zhai Sheng’s dormitory to pa.s.s him the medicine.

She was not young anymore. She had been a nurse for all her life, but she was not getting anywhere.

Her family was urging her to find a good man and settle down. Her neighbors and relatives also set her up with blind dates. But she would not take a fancy to those men. If she had to look for a husband, he would have to be as outstanding, masculine, and capable as Regiment Commander Zhai!

The nurse might have it all planned out, but Zhai Sheng’s sense of hearing was better than her.

Zhai Sheng had already noticed that the nurse was following him.

In fact, Zhai Sheng had noticed her as soon as she started to trail behind him.

He had thought that the nurse had something to attend to and that it had nothing to do with him. He did not expect that she would be trailing after him instead of attending to her work. Zhai Sheng did not understand the reason behind her odd behavior.

“Regiment, Regiment Commander Zhai?” The nurse blushed. She did not expect that she would be discovered even before she reached the dormitory.

“Is anything the matter?” The nurse kept quiet and stared at his face instead. It seemed as if his injuries were on his face instead of his arm.

Since Zhai Sheng had already asked her twice, there was no way that the nurse could remain silent. Her face turned bright red and she whispered shyly, “Doctor w.a.n.g has prescribed two anti-inflammatory pills for you in case you need it and has asked me to send them to you. Since I am not busy, and if it is inconvenient for you to take them with you, I can send them to your dormitory.”

“It’s inconvenient…” Zhai Sheng knitted his eyebrows. “It’s alright. All of the doctors and nurses must be very busy with taking care of the soldiers who need medical attention. I will not waste your time. You can pa.s.s me the medicine. After all, it’s only two pills. If I am unable to bring them with me, he can help me with it.” Zhai Sheng pointed to the soldier next to him.

The nurse pouted her mouth unhappily. She glared at the soldier, warning him not to thwart her plan.

The soldier was amused and angered. He stretched out his hands. “I can take them with me even if there are two rows of pills or two bottles of pills, let alone two pills. Give me the medicine. I will make sure that Regiment Commander Zhai takes the medicine.” When Regiment Commander Zhai was sleeping, it would be difficult to give him the medicine. Now that he was awake, he did not need to help him with the medicine.

The nurse was unhappy that the soldier was insensible. She pa.s.sed the medicine to him reluctantly. “Regiment Commander Zhai, is there anything that you need to ask regarding your injuries? If so, I can repeat them for you. Also, since you are injured, you have to watch what you eat as well as make sure that your dormitory is airy and well-ventilated. The damp environment is not good for your wounds. How about I go and take a look?”

“No, the sun s.h.i.+nes into my dormitory. It will not be a problem.” Zhai Sheng began to make his way back to the dormitory slowly and steadily. “Okay, you should go back to help Doctor w.a.n.g. If Doctor w.a.n.g does not have enough a.s.sistants to help him and cannot attend to the wounded soldiers in time, you will be held accountable for being derelict in your duties.”

“That’s right. You should hurry back.” Although the nurse treated him coldly, on account that she was a woman, the soldier tried to persuade her to go back to her work.

The nurse stomped her feet and left in disappointment.

“Regiment Commander Zhai, you are too popular in the army. All the nurses and the comrades from the dance department have taken a fancy to you. Regiment Commander Zhai, among all of them, who do you like?” Comrade Qiu who came yesterday seemed to like Regiment Commander Zhai as well.

“The position of the wife of the regiment commander has already been taken. You should not overstep your boundaries.” Zhai Sheng knew that other women were interested in him, but he did not care.
