317 Chapter 317. Don’t Mention it Again
Li Zhen’s expression softened as he said, “Remember to take your medicine when you return after dinner. You sound much better than you did this morning.”
Zhuang Xian laughed lightly, not minding the old man’s teasing words. She nodded obediently and agreed to her grandfather’s instructions.
“It’s good to be young. After your physical fitness became stronger, your tonsils, which were caused by a cold, improved quickly! Hahaha.” Lei Cheng chuckled.
He looked at the old chief Li Zhen’s face, which had been sullen the entire afternoon, and finally smiled. He slowly let out a long sigh of relief in his heart!
As Zhuang Xian listened to Lei Cheng’s words, she raised her head and looked at him indifferently. Thinking about the ‘young’ he had mentioned, Zhuang Xian turned her head and looked at Mo Qian beside her. Mo Qian should be 27 or 28 years old this year!
Zhuang Xian didn’t expect Mo Qian to be looking at her. When her eyes met his, she was stunned.
Mo Qian saw the girl looking at him in a daze, and he raised his eyebrows slightly. He asked with slight doubt, “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”
Zhuang Xian returned to her senses and shook her head. “No.”
As she spoke, she exhaled. After sizing Mo Qian’s expression, she asked again, “I see that your complexion has indeed improved. Have you taken the medicine you need to take before the meal? If there’s anything on your body that’s uncomfortable, please tell me now. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait until the next acupuncture treatment!”
‘After going back, I won’t be able to use my phone again,’ Zhuang Xian added this reason in her heart.
Hearing this, Mo Qian nodded his head lightly, his beautiful Phoenix eyes slowly showing a hint of inquiry.
He looked at the gauze on Zhuang Xian’s face and said gently, “So, you’ve decided to go back and continue your military training? But you haven’t recovered from your injuries. Aren’t the rules of your Academy a little too rigid?”
“I’m wonderful now. Don’t worry about me anymore! Of course, I have to go back. Otherwise, it would be too unfair to the other students.”
As Zhuang Xian spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Li Zhen, then turned to Mo Qian. She pursed her lips and added, “Alright! From now on, no one is allowed to mention this matter. I’ve already decided, and I won’t change my mind.”
Li Zhen, “Hehe.”
Mo Qian looked at Zhuang Xian for a long time and sighed softly. He said gently, “Alright, since you’ve already decided, I won’t say anything more. If you need my help with anything, remember to let me know. I’ll help you.”
The atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became a little more charming after Mo Qian’s words. Li Zhen saw through it but didn’t say anything. He just smiled and ate the food in front of him.
The food at Blue Eagle Base was indeed pretty good. Staying here until Zhuang Xian and Li Qin’s military training ended seemed like a good choice! The highly respected old chief, Li Zhen, thought.
Lei Cheng’s intuition told him that he had been forced to show off his affection. Hence, he quietly observed the conversation between Mo Qian and Zhuang Xian. His eyes flashed with a kind of gossip that he did not realize!
Zhuang Xian looked at Mo Qian for a long while. After some thought, she evasively nodded her head.
Under the current circumstances, it would be a little unreasonable if she didn’t give Mo Qian some face!
After all, Mo Qian had just done her a huge favor!
Even though Zhuang Xian had never thought of asking Mo Qian to help her with these things, now that the deed was done, she couldn’t possibly turn against him and repay him with resentment, correct? That was indeed a little too outrageous.
There were times when Zhuang Xian couldn’t do anything to Mo Qian! She even began to think that with such an excellent and gentle man like Mo Qian, she should wait until she was 18 and become an adult and then directly submit to him! Now that she had such strong backing, was she afraid she couldn’t take revenge?
Zhuang Xian lowered her head as she ate, thinking about all these random things. Her intuition told her that she had fallen for him.
Naturally, Mo Qian did not know what Zhuang Xian was thinking. Throughout the dinner, he cared for Zhuang Xian without making a sound. At least, the food in Zhuang Xian’s mouth was light and mild, without any discomfort.
