Chapter 2989
2989 Men And Women
Someone once said that wars were meant to be fought by men. But the strong female soldier in front of them used her strength to carry the responsibility of fighting for the glory of the country.
Wars were no longer fought only by men but all soldiers.
Soldiers didn’t differentiate between men and women.
Li Jinnian, who was on guard, stepped on the bushes with his military boots. The soles of his feet made clicking sounds. His expression was as cold and silent as the cold stones on the peak of a snow mountain.
Before Ye Jian could reject him, Xia Jinyuan picked up Ye Jian’s waist. Li Jinnian bent down and picked up her legs. G3 had already quickly unbuckled his backpack and taken out the wet cloth. Big Shark and Big Eel immediately took it and spread it out. Xia Jinyuan and Li Jinnian carried Ye Jian and placed her on the wet cloth.
“You focus on the task at hand. We have ten minutes of rest.” Xia Jinyuan’s expression didn’t look too good either. However, no one could tell from the paint on his face. They only knew that his voice was extremely tense as if he was enduring something.
Li Jinnian, whose jaw was tense, said in a low voice, “Massage her left leg. I’ll massage her right leg to relax her muscles.”
Xia Jinyuan nodded and said to the team members beside him, “Let’s massage each other to relax. There are two more tough battles in the day.” One was a battle with the SFS border defense forces, and the other was the last position to attack or defend.
Ye Jian felt a little awkward. They were giving her a massage. She was being given special treatment.
She wanted to say something, but when she saw the expressions of the two captains, Ye Jian revealed a rare trace of fear.
It was better for her to be sensible and not say anything now.
She was wearing a jungle combat camouflage uniform. There were constrictions at the bottom of her pants so they could be easily stuffed into her military boots. She loosened the hem of her pants and pulled them up her thighs. Although she was wearing a pair of tight pants underneath, the bloodstains on her knees were obvious.
The bloodstains were not small. They stained her entire knees.
“Your knees are injured.” G3 took a look. His gravel-like voice became even hoarser. “Your pants are stuck tightly to the wounds…”
“Give me the scissors.” Xia Jinyuan raised his hand. Sparrowhawk immediately took out a pair of sharp scissors from his sanitary bag and handed it over. Xia Jinyuan took the scissors and stared at Ye Jian’s knees coldly. He didn’t raise his head and just said in a hoarse voice, “I need to deal with it. Bear with it.”
Li Jinnian pressed Ye Jian’s legs tightly and looked up at his cousin. “Sometimes, enduring for a moment will only cause you more pain in the future. You shouldn’t have endured it from the start. We’ve been trying to stall for time, so we could’ve treated your wounds.”
The calm Demon King was angry.
Facing her cousin’s suppressed anger, Ye Jian could only smile bitterly. “At that time, I only felt pain and didn’t know that I was bleeding. If I knew, I would’ve treated my wounds.”
“Saluk and the rest were pushing too hard. At that time, it was a beach raid. I only wanted to break through the blockade. I didn’t expect that I would bleed. If I had known I was bleeding, I wouldn’t have endured it.”
She really didn’t know. If she did, she wouldn’t have tolerated it.
Then, she looked at Xia Jinyuan, who was holding scissors and starting to cut the knee area of her dry pants. Ye Jian explained, “We’re all at the last sprint. I know the severity of the situation.”
“She didn’t notice it. If she did, she would’ve gotten her wounds treated.” Xia Jinyuan, who had his head lowered, finally spoke. Although his voice was tense, it wasn’t as cold as before. “Bear with it. It’ll hurt a little.”
