The Cultivator's Reborn to 1970s-Chapter 195 - 161: Extra - for Reaching 100 Monthly Tickets

These days, Zhou Yuwei probably has sleepless nights, obsessively thinking about how to drive her away and worrying that if Mo Junhua suddenly wakes up and doesn’t see her, her year of waiting would have been in vain. Although using the rabbit analogy for Mo Junhua is somewhat inappropriate, what Zhou Yuwei is doing is exactly that; waiting for the rabbit.

She put away her miscellaneous notes, watching the two blankly.

"Sister-in-law, long time no see." This address made Chu Yang’s heart ache, recalling what had happened between them in Shanghai.

Lan Tian thought to herself, it’s been long enough, so long that she had forgotten this person’s existence.

"I heard from Nurse Zhou that Camp Commander Mo was seriously injured and hasn’t woken up yet. This time, having shared life and death experiences with him on the front line, and as his comrade, knowing about his situation I came to visit him. I hope I didn’t disturb you!"

Lan Tian shook her head, "No."

This time Zhou Yuwei changed her approach, adopting the demeanor of a demure woman, her smile radiant as she looked at Lan Tian, as if there had been no past displeasures, and lifted the fruit basket she was holding, "Lan Tian, I came here to visit Camp Commander Mo. How is he doing? Is he better?"

Before Lan Tian could answer, she carried the fruit basket to the cabinet, opened it, placed the fruit basket inside, took out an apple, took out a plate, then closed the cabinet door, opened the small drawer of the cabinet, took out a fruit knife, and sat beside Mo Junhua’s bed to peel the apple.

Her series of actions were done so naturally, as naturally as if she often did this, as if she were the mistress of this room, thus familiar with the arrangement of things inside.

Lan Tian raised an eyebrow, was this unintentional? Or was it a deliberate provocation?

Mr. Chu, next to you, isn’t he a doctor, and you’re a nurse, you should know about Mo Junhua’s situation better than I do," Lan Tian said with a half-smile, looking back at Zhou Yuwei and then at Chu Yang.

Zhou Yuwei’s face flushed, always feeling that there was an implication in Lan Tian’s words. She glanced at Chu Yang with the corner of her eye, Chu seemed not to catch the hidden messages in Lan Tian’s words, his smile gentle and elegant.

It seemed like Chu Yang knew Zhou Yuwei was looking at him, he tilted his head and smiled gently, as comforting as a spring breeze, but Zhou Yuwei felt cold inside and dared not look at him again, turning her focus intently back on Lan Tian. Had she found out about her and Chu Yang’s affair, how else could she have spoken like that?

Lan Tian remained indifferent, and after finishing speaking, picked up the miscellany to read again, paying no further attention to them. Zhou Yuwei stared at her for a while, unable to read any special expression; perhaps she was overthinking.

Zhou Yuwei bit her lip, carefully looked at Lan Tian again, "I’m sorry, Lan Tian, I somehow had no idea Cai Mingming came looking for trouble with you, I wasn’t there at the time, or I would have definitely stopped her. She’s a bit impulsive, but her heart is good. She saw me coming out of Camp Commander Mo’s room and thought you were bullying me, so... I apologize on her behalf."

"Since you’re so sincere, alright, I accept your apology." Lan Tian’s gaze was indifferent, but she candidly accepted Zhou Yuwei’s apology.

The ones at fault were indeed both of them, Zhou Yuwei even deliberately came to admit her errors, it wouldn’t make sense not to give her a chance to mend her ways, wouldn’t that seem unkind?

Lan Tian thought she was quite empathetic; see, she even forgave the person who was always trying to steal her man.

Could she also have the potential of a white lotus? Lan Tian thought self-deprecatingly.

Ah?

Accepted.

Zhou Yuwei was taken aback. Lan Tian had accepted her apology. Why? Why didn’t she react like others, denying vehemently because she hadn’t bullied her, so there was no need to apologize. The matters of the past were supposed to be buried, and both of them could remain on good terms.

Lan Tian accepted her apology, which meant that they were both at fault before. Listening to her tone, it seemed like she accepted the apology reluctantly. Zhou Yuwei suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Lan Tian glanced at Zhou Yuwei, who was so aggrieved she couldn’t speak, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

Chu Yang seemed oblivious to the undercurrents between the two women. He walked over to Mo Junhua’s hospital bed and genuinely started examining him.

Lan Tian took a glance and smiled meaningfully.

He was still at the front line when he heard Mo Junhua had been seriously injured and was in a deep coma. The medical conditions at the front line were poor—no equipment, no medicines. They had to transfer him from the front line to a rear hospital.

The higher-ups burst into laughter when they received the news, feeling even the heavens were helping. Initially intending to send Mo Junhua to Beijing for treatment, he was inexplicably transferred back to Shanghai Military District Hospital. The move was secretive, without a whisper, known only to a few high-ranking officials and the chief physicians in the hospital.

They were only instructed to treat this national hero well, without mentioning any details about the medical arrangements.

These were disclosed to Mr. Chu, who pondered over them for several days and then arranged for Zhou Yuwei to take care of Mo Junhua.

A person marked to die, his end was predetermined. The posthumous honors were trivial. Those alive would continue their lives as usual.

No one expected such a stumbling block to be so resilient. If it wasn’t for the final word from the hospital authorities that the patient wouldn’t wake up and the dragging time was just a bit longer, perhaps another two to three years, the higher-ups would have lost their patience and already made their move.

A flash of brilliance passed through Mr. Chu’s eyes, as if God himself stood with him. Every time it looked like Mo Junhua would fall into a predicament with no way out, a sudden twist would occur, catching everyone off guard.

Chu Yang was not Mo Junhua’s attending physician. According to the unspoken rules of the medical field, he had no right to examine Mo Junhua unless the attending physician agreed. Conducting an examination without permission breached medical ethics. After checking the heart rate, pulse rate, and eyes, Chu Yang did not proceed with other examinations. He had a rough judgment of Mo Junhua’s condition— the hospital’s judgment was not wrong.

This time, there could be no mistake. Everyone could rest easy.

Zhou Yuwei had prepared a whole set of explanations, yet they were futile. Seeing Lan Tian’s cold reaction infuriated her. Their relationship was doomed to conflict. Every time she saw Lan Tian, she felt unbearably humiliated and yet was unable to voice her grievances.

"By the way, I heard from a nurse named Mingming that Brother Junhua got injured while saving you. Is that true?"

Zhou Yuwei’s heart leapt violently. She wished she could give Cai Mingming a sharp slap. That big mouth of hers, always spilling secrets, never able to hold back any words. Facing Lan Tian’s icy gaze, she stiffly replied, "Yes, Camp Commander Mo got injured while saving me."

Zhou Yuwei was certain that Jiang Xiaoshan and Su Qing wouldn’t tell Lan Tian about this. Despite all the precautions, the hardest to prevent was betrayal from within, and unexpectedly, it was Cai Mingming who spoke out.

By now, the fact that Mo Junhua got injured for her sake could no longer be hidden. Zhou Yuwei didn’t want to hide it anymore. She wanted to stand proudly by Mo Junhua’s side, using repaying her lifesaver as the best excuse.

Lan Tian’s eyes suddenly turned cold. "Is this how you repay your lifesaver’s wife? You clearly know that my relationship with Brother Junhua is special. He’s been gone for years, and his family worries and misses him so much. Yet you knew Brother Junhua was injured, but you didn’t notify us at all. He was lying alone in the hospital ward with no one to take care of him. Zhou Yuwei, what are your intentions?"
