At the peak of it, Qiao Qiao started crying, trembling lightly in his arms.

Qin Shaonan held Qiao Qiao tightly with one arm, while with the other, he gently wiped away the tear streaks on her face with the back of his hand.

Qiao Qiao looked at Qin Shaonan, remaining silent, still in a daze, just curling up in his embrace, feeling his warmth.

If only life could always flow so quietly and peacefully!

It reminded her of the times when her father was still around, she felt this happy and content.

...

A week later, in the middle of the night, a fierce battle lit up the entire sky like daylight.

The flames leapt up to the sky, and Qiao Qiao felt her blood boiling as she watched.

She thought that if she could really become a military doctor in the future, a sense of pride arose in her heart.

The walkie-talkie in her hand continuously relayed messages from the front lines, reports of victory, one after another, the entire Blue Team was more spirited than ever, even the medical team seemed to be on fire.

The sound of horns and gunfire filled the sky, lasting for three whole hours, finally bringing to an end a large-scale ten-day joint ground-air military exercise.

The Warhawk Team led by Qin Shaonan achieved an indelible accomplishment throughout the exercise!

After a while, he returned to the Blue team’s camp, holding the Blue Team’s flag in his hand.

In an instant, the crowd surged, applause and cheers erupted, drowning the entire forest.

This battle was extraordinarily significant for the special forces.

Last time, due to Captain Hu’s jet crash, they were utterly defeated and several soldiers were lost.

The cause of the sudden jet crash was still under investigation by the military and the aircraft manufacturer, without satisfactory explanations given to them yet.

To this day, Captain Hu was still busy with the matter and didn’t participate in the exercise.

For a long time, a dense fog hung over the entire special forces unit.

Some even thought they were incompetent, blaming it on their own mistakes causing the accident.

This military exercise, this victory, vented out all the frustration pent up inside.

Therefore, they were happier than usual, some even cried.

Qiao Qiao couldn’t get close to Qin Shaonan, hearing someone crying, she was suddenly moved and felt like crying herself.

It wasn’t until Qin Shaonan called for silence that everyone calmed down.

Qin Shaonan looked at Qiao Qiao, "Was it you who treated Qin Shaojin’s wound last time?"

Qiao Qiao looked at Qin Shaonan, quickly standing at attention in standard military posture, "Reporting to Captain Qin, it was me."

Qin Shaonan said, "Come with me and help treat his wound again, it tore open."

Qiao Qiao replied, "Understood, Captain Qin."

She saluted him with a standard military salute, then followed Qin Shaonan and Qin Shaojin to the tent.

Yu Zimu and Shen You watched on.

Yu Zimu nudged Shen You’s shoulder, "Look at Brother Nan, acting like a seasoned veteran, just finished the battle and going back to the tent to continue the cannon fire."

Shen You, "..."

————Yunqi Academy————

Inside the tent,

Qiao Qiao opened up Qin Shaojin’s wound, it was fine, with no tear at all.

Qin Shaojin, "..."

He was already grateful that this time his second brother didn’t rough him up too much.

Qiao Qiao changed his dressing and re-bandaged the wound, then looked at Qin Shaonan, "Are you hurt?"

Qin Shaonan, "No."

Qiao Qiao looked at him, his face was a bit dirty, but it added more to his masculinity.

Qin Shaojin sat on the side, noticing the exchanged glances between the two, he felt a bit overwhelmed.

Dating seriously, his second brother is really terrifying!

He lightly coughed, "I’m stepping out for a bit, nature calls."
