In the end, Du Yuanyi chose to bet on this 60% chance.

After Lin Suisui instructed them on what they needed to prepare, she waited for the two medical officers to prepare the herbs and related things while taking out the tools she had brought with her.

She dipped the blade in the liquor and carefully disinfected it with flames.

She did the same with the needles. She prepared everything methodically. It was also because of her composure that Du Yuanyi, who was feeling uneasy, relaxed a little.

As he watched Lin Suisui’s calm attitude and her skilled movements, he couldn’t help but suspect her identity again.

Did such a skilled doctor need to take the risk to travel all the way to the north to settle down?!

“No matter how good her medical skills are, she’s still a woman.” As if seeing the scrutiny in Du Yuanyi’s eyes, Pei Qian had already answered Du Yuanyi’s question before he could speak.

Du Yuanyi’s original suspicion instantly disappeared because of Pei Qian’s words.

That’s right. No matter how good her medical skills were, she was still a woman!

She wasn’t qualified to become an official doctor. Other than women themselves, very few people were willing to accept a woman treating them!

On the other hand, without so many restrictions in the private sector, she had more opportunities to treat patients. He was the one who was thinking too much about it.

Lin Suisui fed Du Yuanruo half a bowl of anesthetic medication. After Lin Suisui used a silver needle to confirm that Du Yuanruo had completely fallen asleep, she began to treat his injuries again.

After cutting off the necrotic flesh, she stabbed a silver needle into an acupuncture point to stop the bleeding. Then, she carefully helped Du Yuanruo repair his seriously damaged arm.

The needle that Lin Suisui used to suture Du Yuanruo’s wound was an ordinary embroidery needle. As for the thread, it was Du Yuanruo’s hair that she had pulled out and used to suture after boiling it with strong wine.

Not to mention ordinary people who were not proficient in medicine, even the two medical officers standing at the side were dumbfounded.

“Otherwise, what should I use?!” Hearing the doctors’ mutterings, Lin Suisui responded calmly, “How many shark silk and fish lines can be produced every year?!

Sometimes, it’s not even enough for those nobles. What about the ordinary people and the injured soldiers on the battlefield? When repairing wounds, this is the simplest and easiest material to obtain.”

Lin Suisui’s movements were very fast. The damaged meridians were quickly repaired. Even his flesh and skin were repaired.

No matter how fast Lin Suisui was, when the last stitch was done, it was already dawn.

“Alright, the rest will depend on him!” Lin Suisui bandaged Du Yuanruo’s wound again. Then, she turned to look at Du Yuanyi and instructed in a low voice, “To prevent tearing his wound, don’t do any intense exercise these few days. If it tears again, his arm will really be crippled!

His injuries were a little serious. He still had to survive high fever.

Please take care of him, Mr. Pei.”

As Lin Suisui spoke, she wanted to stand up, but because she had been working hard all night and was exhausted, she staggered a little. Lu Ze quickly took two steps forward and picked her up.

“Mr. Pei, there’s no need to worry about the rest. Let me bring her back to rest first.”

Without waiting for Pei Qian and Du Yuanyi to speak, he turned around and strode towards the entrance of the tent!

“Your question was ridiculous. I’ve already said before that our refugee camp is quite peaceful now! But you guys are petty and think that I want to harm you guys! Yet you won’t let me patrol and protect the area you live in!

“Your brother was sleeping in the tent, but then he was moved to the wilderness outside. If not for Qian He’s inspection, he would have been eaten by the wolves until only his skeleton was left!”

Pei Qian waited for Lu Ze to leave with Lin Suisui before turning to look at Du Yuanyi, who had a heavy look on his face, with disdain. “Mr. Du, instead of thanking my subordinate for saving your brother’s life, you’re suspecting me. Aren’t you taking things too far?!”

“If it wasn’t you, who could it be?!” Du Yuanyi suddenly looked up and stared at Pei Qian. “My brother had just been brought out and thrown into the wilderness when Qian He appeared with his men and saved him!

Don’t you think this is all too coincidental?!”

“Where’s the evidence?! If you want to accuse me, show me the evidence! Otherwise, you’re repaying kindness with ingratitude! Although we have different political views and the people we care about are different, it’s not to the point where we have to fight to the death!

“Besides, if I was really the one who attacked, I would have thrown you out without anyone knowing. Is your useless brother worth all that effort?!”

Pei Qian wasn’t angry. He just slowly stood up from the round chair and walked over to pat Du Yuanyi’s shoulder gently as he said in a low voice, “You’re a smart person. There’s no need for me to waste my breath here!”

“Pei Qian, if you kill me today, our two families will completely fall out! You’re not that stupid, and neither am I!

You’re just forcing me to bring my brother back to the capital!”

Du Yuanyi raised his hand to block Pei Qian’s hand that was still on his shoulder and replied with a cold smile, “Alright, I lost this time. I admit defeat!”

“But we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. Pei Qian, you’ll fall into my hands one day!”

“This is really a deep misunderstanding!” Pei Qian sighed with annoyance as he raised his hand and gestured to Qian He, who handed a letter to Du Yuanyi.

“I asked you to bring your brother back to the capital for your own good!

If you knew what your brother had done along the way and what he wanted to do next, you would probably think that his injuries were the blessing of the Du family!

Otherwise, you, Du Yuanyi, will lose more than just your pride! Your entire clan will be executed!”

Du Yuanyi looked at Pei Qian skeptically, but he didn’t refuse the letter that Qian He had delivered.

He knew his good-for-nothing brother well. It was impossible for him to do anything sinister. He wasn’t that capable and bold!

Therefore, his first reaction was that Pei Qian must be hoodwinking him!

However, when he opened the letter and took a look, his face immediately turned ashen from shock, and a metallic taste filled his throat. Although he tried his best to suppress it, he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood…
