Chapter 1861: Questioning

There was only one light switched on in the ward, and it quietly illuminated a corner of the room with warm light. The general special care unit was not as well-decorated as the intensive care unit. There was equipment that made one’s heart tremble just by looking at it, but the few green potted plants on the windowsill added some gentleness to the snow-white ward.
Ye Jian didn’t enter the ward directly. Instead, she chose to stand outside and watch quietly. Uncle Chen hadn’t been sleeping well. If she went in, she would wake him up.
Ye Jian retracted her gaze and lowered her head to wipe her tears. She thanked the responsible guard sincerely. “Thank you for your hard work during this period of time. Go back to your room and rest with your comrades. I’ll guard this place.”
“It’s our duty to take care of the old squad leader. You don’t have to be so polite.” The guard was very young as well. He was around 23 or 24 years old. He felt a little embarrassed when Ye Jian was being so polite to him. He said shyly, “We in Class Three are taking turns. Our comrades in the morning shift will arrive at 7 am. We can go back and rest when the time comes.”
“…We don’t need to rest. The three of us can stand guard as well. You can ask me anything you want to ask. My comrades and I were always around after the old squad leader was hospitalized. We know the old squad leader’s condition better than our other comrades.”
It was her fault that she was not allowed to leave her post.
The ordinary special care unit arranged for them was very humane. It was similar to a one-bedroom ward. The only difference was that the one-bedroom ward was smaller, but it could allow the family members to rest in the living area while taking care of the patient.
It turned out that there was still a foldable bed. However, they had moved it out and placed two wooden stools that did not have a backrest there.
Although there were high stools, it was obvious that they were just there for decoration. The guards had never sat on them before. The plastic wrap on them was still intact without any traces of friction.
Ye Jian took out the plastic stool and started to ask about Principal Chen’s situation during this period of time. Another guard stood outside the corridor.
“He was indeed in a dangerous situation on the first day after being transferred from the Southern Province. All his organs were failing. The first thing we did when we received the old squad leader was to send him to the emergency room.”
As soon as she heard this, Ye Jian’s heart tightened. Her hands that were placed on her knees were clenched into fists. Organ failure was life-threatening… When she wasn’t around, her family member was experiencing a battle of life and death.
“The old squad leader’s will to live is very strong. He survived two big risks. The experts later said that it was a miracle that he survived.
“The former squad leader overcame the two big risks and survived the most dangerous week. Now, he’s able to say a few words to us… Before this when the squad leader woke up during the day, he would only open his eyes slightly without saying a word.”
Ye Jian’s eyes turned red again but she didn’t cry anymore. Uncle Chen said that as a soldier, they should rather bleed than cry. She didn’t want Uncle Chen to see her crying when he woke up.
She could not disappoint those who wished her well.
Although people lived their lives for themselves and she understood that they were responsible for their own lives, they still needed to take care of their loved ones and live for them.
“During the most dangerous week, the old squad leader survived. However, his organs were damaged and there was still a possibility of complications. Even so, the risk is low.. To be safe, he stayed in the ICU for another week before the experts confirmed that he could be transferred to a normal special care unit.”
