Chapter 381: Full of Anger
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Zhaoyong saw Chu Qingzhi and instinctively took a step back. It wasn’t that he was afraid, but standing together with Chu Qingzhi felt too much pressure.
Hearing footsteps, Ji Hongshan turned to look and couldn’t help but be stunned. He was amazed. Chu Qingning was already considered beautiful, but he didn’t expect to see an even more beautiful girl. Who was she?
Jiang Zhaoyong quickly pulled Ji Hongshan aside, realizing that if he angered this girl, she might slam him against the wall.
Ji Hongshan, looking at Jiang Zhaoyong, wondered why he was being pulled.
Smelling the blood, Chu Qingzhi wrinkled her brows almost imperceptibly. She walked to the bedside and asked, “What happened to him?”
Jiang Zhaoyong, as if facing a superior, tensed his body and replied, “He accidentally fell from the stairs. We initially intended to take him to the school’s doctor, but he insisted on coming to find Chu Qingning.”
Chu Qingning looked at the two of them, puzzled. Too shy to look at Jiang Zhaoyong, her gaze finally fell on Ji Hongshan. “What does this have to do with me?”
Ji Hongshan couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Xu Jizhou. He fell from the stairs due to depression from being rejected by Chu Qingning. However, the girl didn’t even know him. “He is Xu Jizhou.”
“???” Chu Qingning looked confused. She didn’t know him at all!
Jiang Zhaoyong started to be narcissistic again. Look, Qingning only had him in her heart. She didn’t care about Xu Jizhou. She didn’t even ask for his name.
With this thought, he felt even more delighted. His gaze towards Chu Qingning became even more fervent.
Chu Qingning felt as if a beam of light was shining on her. Initially, she could maintain her composure, but later on, her movements became stiff.
After checking Xu Jizhou’s pulse, Chu Qingzhi said, “He fell quite severely, internal bleeding, a slight fracture in the left forearm. However, it’s not life-threatening.”
It sounded painful, and Ji Hongshan quickly said, “Miss, please treat Brother Xu. We won’t be stingy with the consultation fee.”
Chu Qingzhi nodded. Rumors and gossip about Chu Qingning had nothing to do with Xu Jizhou. “Wait a moment, let me prepare the herbs.”
Chu Qingning didn’t want to stay in the same room with Jiang Zhaoyong. She was nervous, so she quickly said, “Fifth Sister, 1’11 go with you.”
Ji Hongshan hurriedly said, “Miss Qingning, please help Brother Xu clean the blood off his face. He looks pitiful like this.”
Most girls were soft-hearted. Brother Xu was injured because of this woman. Why not take this opportunity to let them spend more time with each other? What if they fell in love with each other over time? Anyway, Miss Qingning was a doctor. No one would gossip.
Jiang Zhaoyong was the first to disagree. “Men and women should not get too close. Qingning can’t clean him up.”
Naturally, Ji Hongshan sided with his close friend. “Miss Qingning is a doctor, and doctors treat illnesses and save lives. Why should gender matter here?”
Jiang Zhaoyong, unable to come up with a counterargument, opened his mouth, then closed it again, holding in his frustration.
Chu Qingning, after hearing Ji Hongshan’s words, couldn’t refute it. “Wait a moment; 1’11 go prepare the necessary items.”
Disinfectant alcohol, cotton soaked in lightly salted water, bandages, and even cotton swabs—anything that could be used in medicine was prepared and stored in a cabinet in the next room.
After Chu Qingning left to get the items, Jiang Zhaoyong glared at Ji Hongshan. “What do you mean by this?”
Ji Hongshan suddenly reacted and looked Jiang Zhaoyong up and down. “Who is Miss Qingning to you? Why are you so agitated?”
Jiang Zhaoyong didn’t know how to reply. Saying that Chu Qingning had him in her heart or that he liked Chu Qingning would affect her reputation.
He looked displeased. “It has nothing to do with you.”
“It has nothing to do with me, but it has to do with my brother.” Ji Hongshan pointed at Xu Jizhou. “She’s the girl my brother likes. You can’t interfere.”
Jiang Zhaoyong was really unhappy. “What does it matter to me if your brother likes her? Even if 1 interfere, what can you do to me?”
Ji Hongshan was speechless. “You…”
Jiang Zhaoyong’s face turned cold, his tone carrying a hint of chill. “Let me tell you, I brought you here. Don’t repay kindness with enmity.”
Ji Hongshan softened his tone a bit. “We appreciate you taking us here, but this is a different matter.”
Jiang Zhaoyong ignored Ji Hongshan’s words. “After dealing with the injury, quickly take him back. Don’t linger here, bothering everyone. Qingning doesn’t have time to attend to so many people.”
Ji Hongshan didn’t want to argue with Jiang Zhaoyong, considering that he had helped them. So, he took a step back. “If the doctor says it’s okay to leave, we’ll leave.”
Jiang Zhaoyong snorted and sat down on a nearby chair.
Chu Qingning, carrying the medical tools, overheard their conversation while standing at the door. However, she pretended not to hear and walked into the room as if nothing had happened, helping Xu Jizhou clean up the blood.
She was a bit puzzled. She was sure she had never met Xu Jizhou. How could his friend claim that he was interested in her?
Jiang Zhaoyong found the scene of Chu Qingning helping Xu Jizhou with the bloodstains annoying, so he turned his face away, refusing to look.
Ji Hongshan glanced at Jiang Zhaoyong and felt a bit worried. Jiang Zhaoyong was the Martial Top Scorer, while Xu Jizhou was just a student. The competition wasn’t in Xu Jizhou’s favor.
After worrying for a while, he gave up. Let’s leave it to fate.
Carrying a tray, Chu Qingzhi entered the room. The tray contained crushed herbs and four wooden boards over half a meter long.
She placed the tray on the table next to the bed and said, “Qingning, this is the first time you’re dealing with a fracture patient. Watch how I handle it.”
“Okay.” Chu Qingning quickly arranged the medical tools and approached to observe how Chu Qingzhi bandaged Xu Jizhou.
Chu Qingzhi moved Xu Jizhou’s left arm to the bedside. They could clearly see a slight distortion in his small forearm, where a part protruded irregularly, forming an irregular shape on the skin.
“The raised position is the location of the fracture. Gently pinch it with your hands.”
Chu Qingning was a bit scared, but she gathered her courage and touched it. “Sister Five, I can feel it…”
“Yes.” Chu Qingzhi explained seriously, “Based on the severity of bone injury, it can be divided into complete fractures and incomplete fractures… Incomplete fractures are generally less severe, such as hairline fractures or greenstick fractures.”
“This one is a greenstick fracture. The local bone skin is torn but not completely broken.”
Chu Qingning nodded. “Fifth Sister, 1 understand..”
