The second watch has passed.

"I'm not the patient's son, I'm his son-in-law!"
After moving the chair and blanket over to the nurses' station and dropping this line on two nurses, Zhou Mikang turned and went back to the ward. With his keen hearing, how could he not hear the two young nurses' giggling whisper?
He's the son and Jing Zhe is the son-in-law? Hmph! It must have been that damn Jing Zhe doing it on purpose, trying to take advantage of him? No way!
The regimental commander Tongzi had cleared things up, which was quite refreshing, and the two little nurses stood dumbstruck for a while and wished they could bury themselves under the nurses' station.
The girls of this era were tender-skinned, and even if they wanted to marry into a good family or had their eyes on someone, they wouldn't be like some women of later times, brazenly rushing in to snatch them away.
