Almost at the general, Nancy was a bit stuck, thought for a moment before saying, "The operation they wouldn't dare to do so easily, didn't I also take the risk to instruct, and didn't the operation succeed? !"
Her rebuttal left Eric speechless and turned his face away.
Seeing him in a bad mood, Nancy couldn't help but grin. "Don't act like a child who can't get candy. Don't worry, you'll get better."
When Nancy went out to get her medicine, Ben glanced at her back and looked at Eric carefully, saying, "Colonel, I think Dr. Nancy is very confident about your recovery. You should trust her."
"You're talking too much? !" The straight gaze was directed at Ben, who shrank his neck and was too shy to speak.
In that second of silence, Eric's mood hit rock bottom. He was still young, and if he could never stand up again, it would surely be a heavy blow to his military career.
Good-for-nothing!
He suddenly remembered that during training he had cursed his subordinates coldly and ruthlessly.
Now it was he himself who had become a good-for-nothing.
Eric's eyes turned cold, and his heart grew colder bit by bit.
"There are three bottles of drips to get. Do you want to sleep or watch TV? !" Nancy came back with a white plate, and after skillfully giving Eric the needle, looked up and asked him again.
Eric didn't say a word. He tore off the tape she had stuck halfway and pulled the needle off the back of his hand. "For a loser like me, the outcome is the same whether treated or not. Why waste medical resources?"
"You..." Nancy frowned. "You're a loser, then what am I? And what about those who are in a daze all day and don't even know what they are doing? ! What are they? !"
Nancy looked at him seriously, her expression stern. "The reason you got hurt was precisely to protect a peaceful place. You know how many of these people you protect don't even know why they are alive, but you still take responsibility for them and sacrifice for them."
Taking a deep breath, Nancy's eyes were a little moist. "Do you think you're a good-for-nothing, do you think you're not capable of sacrificing for these people and keeping them safe, or do you really think you're a good-for-nothing and shouldn't become a serious casualty for them? !"
Nancy's words made Eric's face sink, and that fierce battle rushed back into his mind...
Frontier town...
The criminal gang that was being pursued by the invincible First Legion was finally in trouble, the extermination plan was perfect, but in the final clearance operation, a few villagers who suddenly broke in were captured as hostages, Eric ordered the hostages to be safe, but unexpectedly...
The village here has been dealing with the criminals for years and sometimes cooperating with them, and has gained a lot of benefits from them, and naturally has no good impression of Eric and the others, while the nearby villages have long been corrupted to the core.
Due to a miscalculation of the villagers, Eric and his group were passively led to an unknown minefield in the area. None of the more than twenty comrades who were with them escaped unscathed, and most of them were wounded to varying degrees.
Nancy was unaware of the situation, but Eric remembered it clearly.
Looking at the glint in his eyes, Nancy thought he was angry about what she had said. "Maybe I've gone too far, but that's the truth. Nobody is really a good-for-nothing unless they really don't know their own worth."
Seeing him looking straight at her, Nancy continued nervously, "I believe that even if you are recovering, you can still bring other value to this society with your excellent mind and experience."
"Really? !" Silent lips, Eric's face stern, "Am I valuable to you too? !"
"You can't say that." Nancy frowned, not understanding what he meant.
However, Eric continued coldly, "I think I know what I am worth to you. As a doctor who is too young and has little experience, I am worth to you for the reputation of treating serious and difficult patients."
The calm and realistic words made Nancy blush. "I don't think that much. I just hope that all the patients I'm dealing with get good health. Maybe you don't believe it, but that's what I think. I can't think that much about anything else."
Eric's cold gaze made her take a step back, nervously picking her hands.
Seeing her standing in front of him like a primary school student, Eric wouldn't let it go. "In the operating room, you are so arrogant that you completely forget your identity as a internship doctor and come forward to point fingers at a group of experienced old doctors, not to prove it?" !"
"I didn't," Nancy shook her head, sensing he was teasing her. "Your injury is too serious. They've been discussing for too long. I got anxious and stepped forward. We can wait, but you can't."
Nancy was stunned when she said that.
How could she forget that throughout the entire operation, Eric remained awake and his eyes were still sharp, even though the pain was unbearable.
How could this man not have waited...
Nancy's face turned pale, and her gaze towards him became a little timid.
"Are you afraid of me? !" Eric pressed on with his eyes, and Nancy shook her head. "I'm not afraid of you, but I hate you. I've never seen such a brave person. You're the first, and I believe you'll be the last, so I don't believe you'll make it this far."
With a slight flicker in his eyes, Eric's face tightened.
She... Why should she trust him? !
While he was in a daze, Nancy quickly went to fix the needle for him, then gently patted his hand, her eyes as gentle as water, "Be good, trust me. I don't expect you to trust me as much as I trust you, but I will do my best to take care of you and help you recover faster."
Looking down at the white tape that held the needle in his hand, Eric's black eyes were slightly lowered, and the side lines of his face were stretched out.
"You're amazing, Dr. Nancy," Ben, who had been staring blankly, gave Nancy a thumbs-up as if he had come to his senses. "You don't know that the colonel was in a bad mood last night. I didn't dare to persuade him or pull him. I scared him all night."
Ben's exclamation was met with a cold, straight look from Eric.
With an awkward cough, Ben quietly moved aside pretending to be a decoration, and Nancy looked at him, smiled, and shook her head.
When Eric had closed his eyes to rest, Nancy took out her phone and quietly sent a text message to Ben under the same roof, "What did he do last night?" !"
"Oh, don't mention it. I was just close to breaking down the hospital." Ben quickly replied to her, adding a terrified emoji.
With a sneer, Nancy asked again, "Why didn't I hear about it? !"
Ben rolled his eyes at her from afar and replied quickly, "When you tap your back, you'll naturally see it."
