Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 405

"I thought they were informed immediately by the platoon. Why did they only arrive now?" For the past few days, Jiang Yao was busy taking care of Lu Xingzhi and Colonel Lin, and basically handed the responsibility for Sergeant Ge over to the medical staff of the hospital.

Wu Pengxin was just about to speak when Major Zhu arrived. He probably heard their conversation as he continued, "Sergeant Ge's mother is yet another difficult character to deal with."

Major Zhu had nothing but pity in his eyes when Sergeant Ge was mentioned. He was a reliable man, competent, socially adept and had overall good character. The only mistakes he made was being born into the Ge family and had Sun Cuimei as his wife.

That was probably the end of Sergeant Ge's career. This incident had a very bad impact on the platoon. Even though Major Zhu tried his best negotiating with the platoon to pay for Sergeant Ge's hospital charges, the superiors decided to discharge Sergeant Ge once he was nursed back to health.

With Sergeant Ge's current rank, it was evident that he would not land any good-paying job even with the platoon pulling strings behind the scene.

"We called his family the day the accident happened. However, his mother told us that they did not have enough money to buy the train tickets needed to come here. They wanted us to lend them a hundred yuan as ticket money. We pooled the money and sent it their way, wanting them to come over as soon as possible. If only we knew they would arrive so late!"
