Being a villain in apocalyptic writing

The round-faced girl was the first to react.

She hugged Jiang Ye tightly, her voice trembling slightly: "It's okay, it's okay..."

A girl brought a basin of water and a towel, someone took out her unwashed clothes from under Jiang Ye's bed, and someone pulled the curtain on this side.

The only man, Li Fuping, was asked to go outside by several girls.

The girls present were all relatively young, and although they all had injuries, none of them had ever faced such a situation.

But surprisingly, they managed to do everything smoothly without any discussion.

The round-faced girl hugged Jiang Ye and kept repeating "It's okay, it's okay...", trying to give her some strength.

A girl with twin ponytails brought a chair and helped Jiang Ye, who was lying limp on the ground, to get up.

When they were about to help Jiang Ye take off her clothes, the latter stretched out his hand and silently stopped them.

A silent refusal, or request.

The girls with twin ponytails discussed quietly, "Then you can do it by yourself, we will wait outside. If you need help, just knock on the basin three times, okay?"

Jiang Ye nodded slowly, his voice hoarse and unpleasant: "I'm sorry to trouble you..."

"No!" The round-faced girl's eyes were slightly wet, "We are all girls... No..."

Jiang Ye remained silent.

The two men stepped out, and the curtain was drawn from the outside, completely blocking off this corner.

Several girls were standing outside, and the sunlight cast their shadows on the light grey curtains.

Jiang Ye raised his head and saw this scene.

Her eyes were still red, but her face was calm, showing no trace of her previous embarrassment.

She quickly packed herself up and waited for another three minutes before lowering her head and saying in a hoarse voice, "It's OK."

The curtain was pulled open, and someone took out the basin and garbage. The round-faced girl wanted to take away the dirty clothes, but Jiang Ye stopped her: "Please... let me do it myself."

The other party paused, then smiled naturally and said, "Then I will help you take it out?"

Jiang Ye was silent for a while, then slowly let go of his hand.

The other girls tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again. They sat near Jiang Ye and chatted with each other.

It’s strange to say, if it weren’t for Jiang Ye’s incident, none of them would have taken the initiative to break the ice.

Jiang Ye lowered her head. When someone prompted her to speak, she responded in a low voice. When no one else did, she remained silent, and it was obvious that she was in a bad mood.

Li Fuping came in from outside and felt somewhat guilty when he saw her like this.

But he couldn't turn Luan Ning over, nor would he give up surveillance just like that, so he could only stand at the door and watch from afar.

We will stand here until evening.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Luan Ning finally rushed back from the banquet. After chatting with Zeng Huixing, he went into the ward to check on the patient as usual.

Li Fuping told what happened during the day with a bitter face.

After enduring for a long time, he finally said, "This girl...there's really nothing suspicious about her. Her legs...ah. From yesterday till now, she hasn't even had a sip of water...After this incident happened today, she still insisted on dragging her legs to wash clothes. She kept apologizing this afternoon. She's a very polite girl..."

"I understand, Uncle Li. Thank you for your help today." Luan Ning listened to him quietly and patted his arm gently. "Go and have a rest first."

"Hey...should I come over tomorrow?"

Luan Ning shook his head: "I will make other arrangements, don't worry."

After seeing Li Fuping off, Luan Ning entered the ward and checked on the conditions of other patients one by one before finally walking to Jiang Ye's bedside.

The latter was seen with his eyes closed quietly, breathing steadily, and there were traces of tears on his face.

Luan Ning moved her lips but didn't say anything.

He stood quietly for a while, then turned around and walked into the inner room to get the silver needle and returned.

Luan Ning put down the needle bag and said to Jiang Ye: "You still need acupuncture today."

The clear voice was a little lowered, as if covered by a layer of mist, but the words were clear enough for people to hear clearly.

But the latter was still sleeping soundly and did not respond to him.

"Excuse me." Luan Ning sat down and rolled up her loose hospital gown trouser legs.

Jiang Ye's eyelashes moved, and she finally opened her eyes, her vision clear.

Luan Ning was taking out the needle, and seeing this, he asked, "Do you want to sit up?"

Jiang Ye nodded and stood up. Luan Ning put the pillow next to her under her.

"Doctor Luan knows I'm awake?"

"Yeah." Although Luan Ning was exhausted from dealing with Hu Jing for the entire afternoon, he still inserted the needles quickly. "It's not difficult for a doctor to tell the difference."

"Watch your breathing?"

Luan Ning smiled: "That's the reason."

Jiang Ye nodded and didn't ask any more questions. It was not appropriate to be too curious about her character tonight.

Luan Ning picked out the golden needle and asked again as he inserted it, "Do you feel any tingling?"

"No." Jiang Ye shook his head and noticed that the acupuncture points he chose this time were different from those he chose last night.

"Yeah." Luan Ning responded lightly, and then continued, "Hu Jing will have someone send a wheelchair tomorrow."

Jiang Ye blinked and didn't respond.

"Come to the pharmacy tomorrow and help me sort out the herbs, right?"

This means that they are not going to let Li Fuping continue to monitor them.

"...Okay." Jiang Ye didn't show it on his face, and didn't ask any more questions. He just agreed in a low voice.

Luan Ning pursed her lips: "Today..."

He took a long time to finish his words, and Jiang Ye thought he was deaf for a moment.

But seeing that he acted more like the one who was embarrassed today than she did, she couldn't help but laugh. She controlled the expression on her face and prepared to respond.

But Luan Ning suddenly found a breakthrough. He asked, "Have you eaten today?"

"...Cough." Jiang Ye was choked by his breath, "No."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at comforting people." Luan Ning said, "It's my fault today. There is a toilet next to the pharmacy. Later you..."

He spoke three sentences at a time, stumbling: "Anyway, what happened today... will not happen again. Your leg will get better if you persist in treatment... so..."

Jiang Ye secretly raised an eyebrow and waited patiently for his next words.

Luan Ning inserted a few needles into her fingers and face before continuing, "So don't, don't go without food or water, you won't be able to handle that..."

Perhaps because of guilt and concerns, Luan Ning was a little hesitant when talking about this simplest medical advice.

People eat grains and cereals, and eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are the most basic needs.

But Jiang Ye's lower body was paralyzed, and he had already lost many abilities that ordinary people should have. Today, because of his precautions, he suffered such a thing for no reason. Luan Ning's heart was not as calm as he appeared.

And this was exactly the effect that Jiang Ye wanted after enduring hunger and performing for a whole day.

She didn't expect to completely dispel Luan Ning's suspicion, but with what happened during the day, she at least had a reason to be alone.

"I see." Jiang Ye lowered his head and did not ask any more questions. He just said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. There are so many things going on in the clinic today, and you still have to worry about me."

The needles on her face trembled as she spoke, making the miserable look she wanted to appear even more comical.

But Luan Ning didn't notice this. Hearing this, he paused while inserting the needle and said seriously, "No."

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ye asked, "Do I need to carry anything to sort out the herbs?"

"Yes." Luan Ning said in a clear voice, "But you can rest tonight."

Still resting?

Jiang Ye smiled bitterly: "I don't know why, I've been drowsy from time to time these two days, and I've slept enough."

"I used the medicine." Luan Ning did not hide it. "Deep sleep can help the superpowers recover their mental strength, and it can also help you recover from your wounds."

Jiang Ye felt a little nervous.
