Chapter 19 — Return to Xiangnan Military Region

"I'm really injured, I want you to look at it for me." Tong Dinh Nien pulled up his sleeve, revealing red teeth marks on his arm: "Tu Khanh, before I couldn't bear to attack you." Mai Tu Khanh glanced at the pale bite mark and smiled slightly: "A little rubbing alcohol and it's gone, not even a scar. If work is delayed because of this 'injury', it's better to write a discharge form and return home early." She didn't leave any emotion behind in her words. Tong Dinh Nien clenched his eyebrows and stood up: "Do you have to speak so sharply?" After a while, he took a deep breath, his tone softened: "Today I came to apologize. Last night I drank too much, if I scared you... I'm sorry." "Yesterday I argued with Tieu San about marriage, I couldn't help but think of you..." "Tong Dinh Nien!" Mai Tu Khanh immediately interrupted in a serious voice: "In my heart, Tieu San is my future, it has nothing to do with me. Now saying these words, I'm afraid of Chu Tri." Law reported that you were drinking alcohol against the regulations, or was he afraid that Tieu San would know that you were harassing a female comrade in the middle of the night?" Tong Dinh Nien was like a deflated balloon, his face was sometimes white and then blue: "Tu Khanh, I just don't want such tension between us. After all, I used to be your fiance." Mai Tu Khanh chuckled, her eyes full of mockery: "Fiance? You're not even worthy." Before he finished speaking, the clinic door suddenly made a "squeak" sound. Chu Tri Luat stood at the backlit door, his military uniform was neat, his cold eyes glanced at Tong Dinh Nien: "I heard that Camp Commander Tong is injured, do you need my help?" Tong Dinh Nien's whole body trembled, he quickly grabbed the bandage on the table to cover the bruise at the corner of his mouth, bowed his head and left in a hurry. As he passed by, Chu Tri Luat suddenly leaned in front of him, lowered his voice and warned: "Tong Dinh Nien, don't let it happen next time." This time he endured, but next time he won't be so gentle. The clinic became quiet again. Mai Tu Khanh bowed her head to rearrange the medicine box, then saw Chu Tri Luat calmly sitting in the examination chair, placing his right hand on the table: "Doctor Mai, please register for the examination." She was stunned: "What do you feel unwell?" Chu Tri Luat slowly rolled up his sleeves, revealing his red and swollen knuckles: "Yesterday, I hit someone too hard and dislocated my joint." Mai Tu Khanh choked for a moment. Chu Tri Luat's right knuckle was clearly bruised, and the swollen area was still slightly scratched. She immediately grabbed his hand, her fingertips gently rubbing the wound: "Why didn't you say it sooner? Yesterday you should have applied ice!" Chu Tri Luat laughed at her worried reaction: "Yesterday I was only worried about seeing if you were injured, who cares about this?" He gently shook his wrist, the corner of his lips curled up with a bit of mischief: "Besides, beating him once felt good, worth it."Mai Tu Khanh was both angry and sad. Quickly rummaged through the medicine box to get a bottle of homemade herbal oil. This is the medicine she brought from the village, used to treat injuries very effectively. She applied the medicine and gently massaged the swollen area: "If it hurts, you should say it, don't try to bear it." Chu Tri Luat looked at her trembling eyelashes, his breathing became heavy: "It doesn't hurt." Don't say your hand is swollen, before training for a dislocated joint, he didn't even moan a word. If it weren't for wanting to see her, he probably wouldn't have gone to the infirmary for such a small injury. Mai Tu Khanh didn't know what he was thinking, only carefully examining the wound did he feel reassured. "It's done, take this medicine and use it. Rest for two days and the swelling will go away. You don't feel any other discomfort, do you?" Chu Tri Luat shook his head, suddenly turned his hand back, and smiled: "There are no other wounds, just a little pain, can you blow for me?" Mai Tu Khanh's ears turned red and glared at him: "How old is Captain Chu, still asking for help." blow?” Chu Tri Luat unashamedly raised his hand: “Why not?

When I was little, my mother always comforted me. Dr. Mai must not be biased." The morning sunlight shined on his face, making the hard lines become gentle. Mai Tu Khanh's heart trembled slightly, as if controlled by someone, she lowered her head and gently touched her lips to the palm of his hand. The pungent smell of medicinal oil mixed with the cool scent of soap from his body made her dizzy. Chu Tri Luat stiffened, her throat slid up and down clearly: "Tu Khanh, you just now were..." That light kiss didn't seem to fall on her hand, but touched straight to her heart. Mai Tu Khanh tried to stay calm, tidied up the medicine box, her ears were red enough to bleed: "Didn't you tell me to blow it for you?" Just this once!" A moment later, Chu Tri Luat walked out of the medical room, his face red. Vuong Phuong and Truong Thuy were passing by clearing medicine, and couldn't help but whisper: "Your face is really red! I'm not mistaken, team leader Chu is blushing!" "It's true that it's difficult for a hero to pass the beauty barrier, team leader Chu has been 'conquered' by Dr. Mai this time!" But there are people who are happy and there are people who are miserable. On the other side, Tong Dinh Nien had just returned to the office when he saw Tieu San sitting on the chair.
