Xie Mingxia went to transport cocoons, and Xie Guiqiu went to Aunt Zhang's house to learn skills. Wen Qin was the only one left at home. Facing the empty home, Wen Qin felt a rare sense of loneliness.

She could only put all her energy into solving problems. Mathematics, physics and chemistry were okay because she had a good foundation in her previous life and all she needed was a little review. However, politics gave her a headache because many of her ideas were no longer compatible with her current ones.

Changing her mindset gave her a headache.

Since no one was home, Wenqin bought a few lights for night market stalls and asked the manufacturer to fully charge them before delivery. So she didn't worry about the lighting problem at night.

While she was studying hard, there was suddenly a noisy sound outside and someone was knocking on their door.

Wen Qin quickly turned off the lights, took the oil lamp and went out to open the door. After standing at the door and listening for a while, Wen Qin quickly opened the door.

"Captain Xu, why are you here?" The old captain retired a few days ago, and Xu Jianqiang has become the captain of the Xiaxi Production Team.

"Hurry up and pack up. Mingxia is in trouble. She is in the County People's Hospital."

Wen Qin almost lost her grip on the oil lamp and turned around to push her bicycle, but Xu Jianqiang grabbed her and said, "I asked you to pack some clothes and money. The county bus is waiting for you at the intersection."

Wen Qin pushed Xu Jianqiang out as soon as she heard it: "Why pack your clothes? I have the money with me. Let's go."

After saying that, he turned around, locked the door and ran out.

Xu Jianqiang didn't hold him back for the moment, so he sighed and followed.

Wen Qin felt that the oil lamp in her hand was in the way, so she blew it out and put it directly on Yuan Hongyu's window sill, then ran away. When she ran to the intersection, she saw a Red Flag car parked on the side of the road.

There were probably only a few cars of this type in the entire Jiangcheng. Wen Qin had not expected to be sent to pick her up. As soon as she arrived, a cadre in his early 30s rolled down the window from the passenger seat: "Is this Comrade Jie Mingxia's lover?"

Wen Qin nodded: "I am, I am."

The cadre didn't say anything, but immediately got out of the car and helped Wen Qin open the back door.

Wen Qin didn't bother to be polite and went straight in.

The cadre also got into the car. At this time, Xu Jianqiang ran over and sat directly in the passenger seat.

The cadre introduced himself: "Hello, Comrade Wenqin, my name is Lian Wujin, and I am Secretary Qu's secretary."

"Secretary Qu?" Wen Qin's first reaction was the Qu Mingheng she had met at the county dinner. But she soon forgot about this guy.

"Hello, Secretary Lian. What happened to Jie Mingxia?"

"First of all, please don't worry, Comrade Wen. Comrade Xie Mingxia is not in danger of death at the moment."

Wen Qin felt relieved when she heard this: "So what happened?"

"He was shot once, but it missed his vital parts."

Even though the secretary said it easily, Wen Qin's face turned pale: "Didn't you say you were transporting cocoons? How could you get shot?"

"This..." It was dark outside, with only the headlights of this car on, but Wen Qin still felt the embarrassment of Secretary Lian.

Xu Jianqiang had been silent the whole time, but at this moment he couldn't help but turn around and say, "Secretary Lian, as long as he's okay, that's fine."

Secretary Lian coughed lightly and said, "Originally, Comrade Jie Mingxia was leading the team to transport the cocoons. Due to other reasons, he was later transferred to several checkpoints for collecting cocoons. As a result, he encountered those criminals rushing through the checkpoints..."

Wen Qin understood. Xie Mingxia was originally very safe. He was just driving a car to transport cocoons. However, he was transferred to another position because of Lian’s secretary.

It would be a lie to say that Wen Qin was not angry, but now she hadn't met Jie Mingxia yet and didn't have the heart to argue with him.

Gunshot wounds, even if they didn't hit vital parts, would the wound get infected? Would there be excessive blood loss?

Wen Qin quickly bought a bunch of external injury medicines such as Yunnan Baiyao, and stockpiled antibiotics.

Seeing that Wen Qin fell silent, even the secretary stopped talking.

Soon the car drove into the gate of the County People's Hospital.

The predecessor of the People's Hospital can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. It was a church hospital established by foreign missionaries, so the building is older than the Chinese Medicine Hospital. Even at night, there are still many people coming and going here.

There were quite a few people standing in the emergency hall at this time, and Wen Qin still spotted a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit surrounded by the crowd.

Sure enough, even the secretary took two quick steps over. The middle-aged man saw Wen Qin and hurried over. He stretched out his hand first: “Comrade Wen Qin, I’m really sorry.”

Wen Qin wanted to turn her face away, but finally held back: "Secretary Qu."

Perhaps he also knew that Wen Qin was in no mood for small talk, nor did he have the airs of a leader. Instead, he immediately turned around and led Wen Qin to the door of the ward next to him: "The bullet in Comrade Jie Mingxia's body has been removed. Since the anesthetic has not worn off yet, he is resting here now."

Secretary Lian stopped others who wanted to follow, and in the end, only Wen Qin, Secretary Qu and Secretary Lian entered the ward.

Xie Mingxia lay there with a pale face, the quilt only covering her waist, a bandage tied around her chest with faint traces of blood on it, and various wires and instruments hanging all over her body. There was also an IV on her hand.

Wen Qin's legs felt a little weak, but fortunately Secretary Qu was quick to help her avoid falling.

Wen Qin said thank you and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

At this moment, she hated herself for not studying medicine. She had the resources, but didn't know how to save people.

Wen Qin didn't dare to touch it, and just sat there. She didn't know when Secretary Qu and Secretary Lian left.

Not long after the anesthetic wore off in the second half of the night, Xie Mingxia woke up, and Wen Qin noticed it immediately.

"Awake? I'll go call the doctor."

The doctor came quickly. After a quick examination, he stood up and said, "It doesn't look like a big problem at the moment, but you may have a fever. If you have any problems, just call us."

Secretary Qu came in just as the doctor left. Wen Qin only realized now that Secretary Qu had not left.

Secretary Qu signaled Wen Qin not to stand up.

"I saw you wake up and left right away. You should have a good rest. We will give you an explanation for what happens next."

Soon everyone in the ward left.

Jie Mingxia raised his hand, and Wen Qin reached out and grabbed him: "What's wrong? Does it hurt?"

Xie Mingxia shook her head: "I'm sorry for making you worry."

His face was very pale and he spoke very slowly. Wen Qin put his hand on her face and said, "Okay, they told me everything. I'm glad you're okay. Stop talking and go to sleep. I'll be here to watch over you."

Xie Mingxia closed her eyes again, but Wen Qin couldn't fall asleep.

Secretary Qu's instructions gave her other ideas.

It seems that Xie Mingxia was injured this time because of Secretary Qu rather than Secretary Lian.

As for whether the person who injured Jie Mingxia was caught, both of them kept silent, so I'm afraid he ran away.

There was a hint of ruthlessness in Wen Qin's serious expression.

You've hurt Li Mingxia, and you still want to run away?
