Chapter 154 Where there is light, there is also darkness.
The old man in the Tang suit didn't want to say much at first, but seeing Gu Nan and Su Niannian's reactions...
I knew then that these two had already figured out what was going on.
He then gestured for Zhou Qishan to close the ward door and stand guard at the door.
"You've all noticed that Commander Tan has a problem, haven't you?" the old man in the Tang suit said in a low voice.
Su Niannian and Gu Nan both nodded.
"It's probably similar to what you're thinking. There really is someone who wants to harm the old man. According to my analysis, it started when the old man was injured; they wanted to get rid of him."
"But the old man was tough and survived. They probably wanted to get rid of him during his surgery, but their people couldn't even get into the operating room."
"Now let's focus on this," the old man in the Tang suit said, pointing to the IV drip hanging on Chief Lu.
"Now that the people and evidence have been taken away, what should we do?" Su Niannian asked, puzzled.
"Little girl, you're too naive. Even if we don't give it to him, we can't keep it. Evidence can always be cleared away."
“Once the old man wakes up and his condition stabilizes, I’ll take him back to Beijing first. The security there is more comprehensive, and there are more of our own people there.”
“With the old man here, I’m really afraid that he might lose his life if I’m not careful.” After saying this, the old man in the Tang suit took a deep look at his old friend lying on the hospital bed.
Su Niannian and Gu Nan exchanged another glance.
Su Niannian could understand that a person in a high position was in a dangerous situation, with villains around him who wanted to harm him.
Fortunately, I have completed the surgery perfectly, which will ensure Chief Lu's health to the greatest extent possible in the future.
Gu Nan felt somewhat guilty, blaming himself for not staying in the army and for not staying by Commander Lu's side, leaving him to face danger alone.
Gu Nan's hands hung at his sides, clenched into fists, the veins on his wrists bulging, his nails digging into his flesh.
But Gu Nan seemed to feel no pain.
Seeing their reactions, the elderly man in the Tang suit suddenly smiled.
"You may be too young. Things in this world are not as simple as they seem on the surface. Where there is sunshine, there is shadow. What you see today is only a small part of the story."
“What he has endured and experienced is beyond your imagination.” The old man in the Tang suit suddenly became serious.
Yes, isn't this always been the case in this world?
Su Niannian noticed that Gu Nan was very tense and hadn't eaten for a long time.
Although Su Niannian has food in her space, she can't just take it out so openly.
"I'll go out and buy some food. You must all be hungry," Su Niannian said, getting up to leave.
Zhou Qishan stopped him.
"You're just a young girl, you don't know this place well, I'll go." Zhou Qishan didn't dare let outsiders go buy it now.
It's better to buy it yourself.
Moreover, what the old man in the Tang suit just said... Could it be that among the five experts I found, there are also those who want to harm Chief Lu?
Zhou Qishan thought back carefully.
I didn't find anything. It seems I've been away from the tense environment of the military for too long, and my nerves have become desensitized.
Zhou Qishan left the hospital to buy food.
Only the elderly man in the Tang suit, Su Niannian, and Gu Nan remained in the ward.
A short while later, Chief Lu woke up again.
Su Niannian hurriedly came to Chief Lu's side.
"You can't move your body right now. Is there anything that hurts you?" Su Niannian asked Chief Lu.
"It's alright." Chief Lu forced a smile.
Then he turned his head to look at Gu Nan and his old friend.
"Who's here?" Chief Lu's voice was a little hoarse, but he still looked at the old man in the Tang suit and asked.
“It’s Tan Wen,” the old man in the Tang suit said, without looking directly into his old friend’s eyes.
"Tan Wen'a..." Commander Lu said, letting out a long breath.
It seems like accepting a fact that one doesn't want to accept.
The conversation between the two was very concise, but Gu Nan and Su Niannian were both incredibly clever.
The matter has been largely clarified.
The ward fell silent.
It is obvious that Chief Lu knew that someone might try to harm him after the surgery.
Of course, it's impossible for him to do it himself; there will always be a scapegoat to take the blame.
Therefore, it is especially important to find someone to catch this scapegoat.
It was Tan Wen, someone he had carefully taught and mentored.
Therefore, Chief Lu was naturally also feeling bad.
Two more days passed, and with the blessing of Su Niannian's spiritual spring water, Chief Lu's condition had improved significantly.
"Little Su, your Chinese medicine is truly amazing! The Chinese medicine that old man gave me before was all bitter, but yours tastes sweet." Chief Lu's nerves and body have recovered quite well.
"That's right, I added the best ginseng and brown sugar too," Su Niannian said with a smile.
The name of the spiritual spring water cannot be revealed, its medicinal effects can only be attributed to ginseng, and its sweetness can be attributed to brown sugar.
"Little Su is really something, so willing to invest in this old man like me. You should learn from her." Chief Lu's words were clearly directed at the old man in the Tang suit.
Because Su Niannian knew her maternal grandfather's surname, she never asked, and the old man in the Tang suit never told her either.
In the last two days, the old man in the Tang suit finally told Su Niannian and Gu Nan his name.
Bai Xuesong.
"You're really talking nonsense. You've eaten so many good things from me, and yet you say such things?" Old Master Bai looked a little aggrieved.
"Fine, you're all good, you're all good, okay?!" Chief Lu said helplessly. This man was old, but he was like a child.
We still need to coax them a bit.
"But little Su is really amazing. At such a young age, she actually managed to perform my surgery. I went into the operating room with the determination to die." Chief Lu thought to himself, Su Niannian is truly outstanding.
Great.
However, Gu Nan, whom he had taught, was just as excellent and capable.
These two little ones are truly a match made in heaven.
I want to live a few more years to witness these two little ones get married and have children.
"Please don't praise me, but don't forget not to let anyone know that I had surgery," Su Niannian said with a smile.
In fact, Chief Lu did not understand why Su Niannian, with such superb medical skills, would hide her abilities.
If this skill could be acquired and he became a military doctor, he could save countless lives.
Pity.
However, this is the girl's own choice, and as an outsider, there's nothing I can do to interfere.
As long as they are happy.
"Let's arrange our return to Beijing tomorrow. It'll be safer to go back sooner than here," said Old Master Bai.
Chief Lu reached out to take the apple that had just been peeled, but Old Master Bai ignored him and started eating it himself.
