Chapter 464: Chapter 464: Sister-in-Law is Good

After confirming that all the examinations showed no issues, it was a relief—this little girl indeed didn’t have any serious problems.

"Are you injured anywhere else on your body?"

The little girl nodded:

"It seems like the skin on my back is also scraped, it burns painfully."

Since they were facing each other, the condition of her back wasn’t visible.

"Come, turn to the side a bit, let me take a look."

The two gentlemen actively averted their gaze, and Lu Jing didn’t delay, gently lifting the girl’s clothes.

Upon inspection, there was a large scrape on her back, and there were quite a few tiny grains of sand lodged in the wound—it was no wonder she was crying out in pain.

Lu Jing felt very sorry for her but couldn’t just leave it be:

"I’ll clean your wound first, otherwise it could get infected. It’ll hurt a lot, can you bear it?"

How could she possibly bear it?

Even grown men might not endure it.

Jiang Ye seemed to anticipate the need and opened the medical kit, taking out a stack of gauze and handing it over.

After Lu Jing received it, he unwrapped the gauze, then handed it to the little girl:

"Bite down on this."

Otherwise, it might be too painful, and she could hurt herself.

Once the girl bit down on the gauze, Lu Jing had already prepared the disposable tools:

"Jiang Ye, come help."

At such times, one certainly wouldn’t mind the difference between men and women.

Jiang Ye, albeit reluctantly, still obediently stepped forward.

However, he only used his hands to hold down the girl’s shoulders to ensure she wouldn’t move around later.

The couple didn’t need to say much to each other. A single exchange of glances conveyed their thoughts clearly—they were perfectly in sync.

The girl trembled nervously all over, and Lu Jing kept reassuring her:

"Little sister, don’t be nervous, it’ll be over soon."

"Mhm, please be gentle, Sister..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lu Jing had already begun.

"Ah!!!"

Suddenly, the girl’s cries of pain could be heard far and wide.

Jiang Ye had to exert some force to hold the girl down, otherwise, she might have bolted.

The first touch of the antiseptic cotton to the wound was extremely stimulating.

But gradually, after being applied several times, it seemed she became numb to the pain—her screams grew fainter and fainter.

There were quite a lot of little grains of sand in the wound, and Lu Jing meticulously removed them one by one with tweezers.

Being skilled in orthopedics and used to frequent surgeries, his hands were very steady, accurate, and quick.

Dealing with tiny grains of sand was nothing for him.

In about twenty minutes, all of the girl’s external injuries had been treated.

Lu Jing was sweating profusely, mainly because the girl kept crying out in pain, which was nerve-wracking.

Afterward, treating the two men proved to be much less stressful and considerably easier.

Grown men wouldn’t scream out loud; if the pain became unbearable, they might groan a bit at most, but large beads of sweat fell continuously from their faces, and the veins on their bodies bulged.

Jiang Ye watched his wife’s quick hands with a sense of pride.

Look, that’s his wife there!

Impressive, isn’t it?

If possible, he really wanted to show her off to the whole world.

Of course, such a childish thought could never be said aloud. He could only secretly entertain it in his heart.

In total, it took less than an hour to treat all three of them, around forty minutes or so.

If they hadn’t been so cautious with the little girl at the beginning, they could have finished even earlier.

When everything was dealt with, and the fire brigade had completed their accident investigation and reports, preparing to return to base,

Lu Jing packed up the medical kit. The three injured were aboard the traffic police car, and what happened next was no longer Lu Jing or the fire brigade’s concern.

"Sister-in-law, good job!"

Now that the team members had finished their tasks, they also relaxed and greeted Lu Jing one by one.

"Thanks for your hard work!"
