Previously, when they first met, it was at the relief station. Wang Tong was wearing her military uniform.
Now, Wang Tong had donned a white coat, making her face appear even whiter and more delicate. Her tall and slender figure exuded a sense of coldness, making most men hesitate to meet her gaze.
Lu De Min looked at Wang Tong with a steady gaze, his confidence undeterred by her excellence. It was this self-assured look that had left a deep impression on her. Of course, Lu De Min was incredibly handsome.
Lu De Min smiled and said, "Yes! Comrade Wang Tong, I wanted to ask for your help."
I saw the news in the newspaper. Next year, the country will be holding its first College Entrance Examination since its founding. I plan to take the exam.
I heard you’re the only college student in the relief station. I thought, those who love reading, those who excel in their studies, are usually fond of books. Maybe you have some reference books I need. So, I have the audacity to ask for your help!"
Upon hearing Lu De Min’s intention to take the upcoming exam, Wang Tong’s eyes lit up, revealing a look of admiration:
“You’re planning to take the national college exam? That shows ambition! Comrade Lu De Min, you guessed right, I still have some textbooks and reference materials! What kind of books do you need? Just tell me and I’ll help you find them!”
Lu De Min was overjoyed that Wang Tong was willing to lend him books. He pulled out a slip of paper from his pocket, listing the names of some textbooks.
Wang Tong took the paper and looked at it, a beautiful smile gracing her lips. “Your handwriting is quite nice! I have most of the textbooks you need. If there are any missing, I’ll help you find them!”
Lu De Min was moved by her kindness. “Comrade Wang Tong, thank you!”
Wang Tong waved her hand and said earnestly:
“Don’t mention it! I completed my studies during the war and know how difficult it is to pursue education. I also admire those who are driven to learn. Since you enjoy reading and have the ambition to go to college, I’m willing to make you my friend. Feel free to ask me for help in your studies.
I will do my best to support you in your learning. If you can get into college next year, I will have contributed a college student to the nation, a testament to my contribution to the country, a source of my pride!”
Lu De Min was deeply touched by her words. His admiration for the beautiful nurse surged. He realized Wang Tong was not only beautiful but also possessed exceptional character.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Wang Tong felt a little uncomfortable under Lu De Min's gaze, her face flushed with a faint blush.
Lu De Min said sincerely, “Comrade Wang Tong, thank you! You’re great! From now on, we’re friends!”
“You still call me comrade!”
“What should I call you then?”
“You’re so silly! I’m older than you, you can call me Tong Jie or Wang Tong, either is fine.” Wang Tong smiled slightly.
“Then I’ll call you Tong Jie.”
“Alright!”
Wang Tong noticed everyone around them looking at them and said, “I have things to do. I’ll be busy now. I’ll find all the textbooks and send them to the Military Control Station. Or I can send them to the relief station, which do you prefer?”
Lu De Min thought for a moment and replied, “Send them to the Military Control Station then. I go there for daily reporting, but I might not be assigned to help at the relief station.”
“Okay! I’ll get the textbooks to you at the Military Control Station as soon as possible. I have to go now. See you later!”
“Thank you, Tong Jie. See you later!” Lu De Min waved goodbye to Wang Tong.
However, Lu De Min didn’t immediately leave the hospital. Instead, he went to the old man’s ward to visit him.
Lu De Min had learned from Wang Hui that the old man was not a disaster victim. He fainted on the street next to the relief station this morning and was brought to the station for treatment, mistakenly classified as a disaster victim.
Lu De Min walked into the ward.
Grandfather Sun De Xiao had already woken up. He was sitting on the bed, his complexion not good, but his eyes were bright and piercing.
Lu De Min thought, How strange.
Lu De Min quickly walked over, supporting him with one hand and said with concern, “Grandpa, you’ve just recovered from a serious illness. You’re not feeling well. Don’t sit up. Lie down and rest! Are you hungry? I’ll get you something to eat!”
Unexpectedly, a surprising scene unfolded.
Sun De Xiao didn’t lie down. Instead, he grabbed Lu De Min’s bones with his hands, becoming increasingly excited as he felt them.
“Haha! Heaven’s will! Heaven’s will! As the saying goes, those who survive great calamity are blessed. I never expected that I, Sun De Xiao, whose life was nearing its end, would encounter a rare training prodigy! Little brother, I want to pass down all my martial arts to you…”
Oh! Lu De Min was completely dumbfounded.
