Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 110: How Did His Sister’s Personality Suddenly Change?
"Oh my! How can these wounds heal so quickly? Not only has all the pus been drained, but they’re not even inflamed, and they’ve scabbed over."
Everyone exclaimed in astonishment and joy. In less than 24 hours, the recovery of their wounds was at least three to four days ahead of the norm.
The wound on Su Xiaoxiao’s hand, in particular, had already mostly scabbed over. After the doctors reapplied the medicine and rebandaged the wounds, they left.
Once the doctors left, Fan Yunping excitedly looked at Su Xiaoxiao, then at Su Hongchen. "Comrade Su, your sister is truly remarkable! The doctors at our military hospital are still clueless, and here you two are, almost healed."
Su Hongchen proudly smiled, "My sister has always been exceptionally bright from a young age. That’s why our parents dote on her so much."
Seeing how well the brother and sister got along, the several leaders smiled as well. "Alright, young man, you’re quite lucky. Your sister has saved you twice. As for the cost of the medicine, I’ll write an application when I get back today. But you’ll have to wait for your medical examination before we can process the reimbursement."
Su Hongchen agreed with a smile. When a leader made a promise, it was unlikely to be a problem. Besides, in their current situation, they would have the money soon.
Seeing that he was agreeable, Fan Yunping’s expression became a bit conflicted as she looked at Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao was momentarily puzzled by her gaze, then she guessed that Fan Yunping wanted to say something.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t speak directly, though. Instead, she first thought about the promotional value of the prescription. She then heard Fan Yunping speak somewhat in a tone with a bit embarrassment, "Young Comrade Su, could you share your prescription with the country? Rest assured, we won’t take it for free. As long as you and your brother recover, even if the prescription can’t be widely promoted, I’ll apply for certificates and bonuses on your behalf."
Su Xiaoxiao agreed without hesitation, "Sure!"
“Really? Thank you so much, Young Comrade Su!”
Fan Yunping was overwhelmed with emotion at the unexpected ease of this conversation, and his eyes were filled with approval and admiration when he looked at Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao added with a sweet smile, "If this prescription can be used for more people, it’s better than keeping it to myself."
Then, after a few seconds of contemplation, she continued, "Actually, we can try using more common ingredients instead of those rare, centuries-old medicinal herbs. This way, we can detoxify the body and treat common internal injuries."
Su Xiaoxiao spoke while writing down both formulas and handed them to Fan Yunping. The man accepted them earnestly, placing the documents into his pocket. He expressed his gratitude, saying, "Young Comrade Su, rest assured, I will immediately relay your words to the professors at the military hospital, and we will follow your method."
"Good!" Su Xiaoxiao cheerfully responded.
Fan Yunping made a mental note to send the prescription for research, and after a brief conversation, he hurriedly left the ward with the other military leaders.
However, just five minutes later, there was another knock on the door.
"Come in," Su Hongchen said.
Looking at the unfamiliar doctor who entered, he furrowed his brow and asked, "Doctor Chen, what brings you here?"
Doctor Chen wasn’t in charge of their medical condition; she usually appeared during routine inspections with the hospital director.
Clearing her throat, Doctor Chen straightened her back and said, "I came to inquire about Young Comrade Su’s prescription."
As soon as she said this, the already quiet room seemed to freeze. The three of them stared at Doctor Chen, who was trying to act clueless.
Feeling the tension in the room, Doctor Chen blushed and said, "Young Comrade Su’s prescription has incredible effects on wound healing. Judging by your current recovery, it’s clear that it’s also helping repair your internal organs. So, I thought that Young Comrade Su might consider sharing the prescription. All our doctors could work together to study it and develop better medicines for the treatment of other patients."
Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled by her request, asking with a quizzical expression, "Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes individualized treatments based on examination and diagnosis. You are aware of the value of the ingredients I used, and changing them to common ones would be of no reference, would it?"
Doctor Chen became anxious when Su Xiaoxiao declined her request, saying, "We can spend time looking for alternative ingredients. Even if we can’t find perfect substitutes, having an extra prescription for reference would be beneficial."
"We’re not obligated to share it," Jiang Yexun coldly refused.
While traditional Chinese medicine wasn’t currently in vogue, Jiang Yexun knew that many old, century-old formulas were family treasures protected by the nation. It was impolite for someone to request access to them without a valid reason.
Doctor Chen used a moral argument, "This is for the greater good. As relatives of Captain Su, you should also raise your awareness."
Was she trying to morally manipulate them?
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and responded with a hint of sarcasm, "Even if I were to share the prescription, it wouldn’t be for you but for the country. Do you really think that the leaders in the military don’t recognize the value of this prescription?"
Doctor Chen immediately froze at her words, unable to hide her disappointment.
Jiang Yexun, with a deep and completely devoid of warmth look in his eyes, observed her and scoffed, "Some people are both foolish and malicious, always trying to deceive others."
Doctor Chen felt embarrassed and frustrated but was unable to retort in the face of the stern and icy glances from both men. She clenched her teeth and left the room dejectedly.
Su Hongchen withdrew his gaze and looked at his sister, who was proudly flaunting her victory with a shake of his head.
But then he turned his serious and caring gaze to Jiang Yexun, asking, "You’ve only been in the countryside for a little over two months. What exactly happened?"
He didn’t allow anyone to speak ill of his sister, but he understood her personality better than anyone. She was soft and stubborn, somewhat spoiled, and she had a certain level of pride. Choosing a village boy like Jiang Yexun was already quite unbelievable.
Now, acting like this to save face even when being confronted by outsiders, it was nothing like his sister.
A person like Pan Yongsheng wouldn’t be enough to trigger such a massive change in her personality.
But Su Hongchen didn’t doubt that his sister had changed to such a degree.
The little actions she made, the tone and expressions unique to her, were challenging to disguise. Furthermore, there was no advanced technology for such a transformation.
Su Xiaoxiao’s smug expression suddenly froze, and she avoided meeting her brother’s eyes.
Not wanting to press his sister too hard, Su Hongchen turned to Jiang Yexun. "I know my sister well, and this isn’t like her. She’s delicate and somewhat proud. The way she acted just now, especially in front of outsiders, being so bold and savage in her defiance... it’s just not her. Pan Yongsheng, the guy from the production team, would never be able to provoke her like that. So, what happened?"
Jiang Yexun didn’t want to force an explanation from Su Xiaoxiao either, so he remained silent and allowed her to speak for herself.
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression changed as she heard her brother’s words. Her triumphant demeanor suddenly turned stiff, and she looked around, locking eyes with Jiang Yexun.
Even though her brother was present, she didn’t hold back and snuggled up to Jiang Yexun’s back. "You don’t need to say anything. I’ll explain."
He was quite straightforward in his speech. It would be fine when arguing with others, but if he didn’t tone down his attitude about the events in the team, he might drive her brother crazy.
"Su Xiaoxiao!" Su Hongchen warned with his voice.
"Don’t worry, if he’s too harsh on you, I’ll take you to another room," Jiang Yexun assured her.
However, the two little bunnies hopping on his solid back almost made his heart jump out of his chest.
