Chapter 280 - 280: One Was Happy, One Was Embarrassed

Shi Man Xie was definitely happy inside. Even though he did not expect this to happen he thought that this must be a chance that God gave to him to make him looked good in front of Zhu Xiao Ling. Of course, he was very worried about Zhu Xiao Ling. Yu Qi said that she should avoid walking for the time being.

Unlike how Shi Man Xie was feeling, Zhu Xiao Ling was very embarrassed at this moment. Who knew that at this age, she would be given a piggyback by a man. 'It is so embarrassing.' She kept repeating that sentence in her mind over and over again.

Yu Qi totally felt that it very funny, while she observed the man and woman that were walking beside her. The happy expression on Shi Man Xie's face and the blushing red on Zhu Xiao Ling's face was indeed a funny scene.

From what Yu Qi had been hearing, of course, it was from the gossip that the shooting club members always mumbling,  Senior Shi Man Xie liked Zhu Xiao Ling. However, he was afraid to make a move because of Yu Qi.

Now, he volunteered himself for the sake of Zhu Xiao Ling. Climbing down the mountain was indeed a difficult task and it was more difficult to do it while carrying someone on their back. But he did it for Zhu Xiao Ling.

Besides Yu Qi, the devil, Long Hui was jealous that Yu Qi was not looking at him. To make her remembered, him, he squeezed Yu Qi's hand. 

Feeling her hand had been squeezed by the devil, Yu Qi turned to look at Long Hui. Long Hui showed an unsatisfied look to Yu Qi. How could his beloved Qi Qi ignored him like this and pay attention to those other people? 

Yu Qi had indeed forgotten about Long Hui for a moment. When the man squeezed her hand, she remembered him. She turned to Long Hui. She could see the look that he was giving her. She chuckled.

Long Hui leaned closer to Yu Qi's ear. "Are you feel envious of that girl?" Long Hui whispered.

Yu Qi distanced herself. Her ears were her weak points. Envious of Xiao Ling? Why?" She could not understand Long Hui's question.

"Do you feel envious about her being piggybacked which is why you have been looking at them. I can give you a piggyback ride too."

"No. I don't." Yu Qi said in a low voice. What the heck was in Long Hui's head? To think he would make that kind of conclusion.

After a half-hour of walking, the four of them arrived at the military camp. Yu Qi told Long Hui to bring Zhu Xiao Ling to see a doctor in order to check her out further. Long Hui then instructed Shi Man Xie to bring Zhu Xiao Ling to see the military doctor.

The military doctor checked Zhu Xiao Ling's ankle. He said it was not as serious an injury on her ankle as the first aid helped her. The military doctor asked who was the one that gave her the treatment. Because Yu Qi was also present, Zhu Xiao Ling did not answer that question. She just pointed her finger to Yu Qi.

"The treatment is very precise. Even I could not determine how much strength to use. You are very impressive." The military doctor praised Yu Qi.

"I just do what's I learn from my master." Yu Qi said in humble.

"Oh. May I know who is your master?" The military doctor just asked out of things. 

"My master's name is Tang Jiang Man." Yu Qi answered.

The military doctor was frozen when he heard that name. 'What? What? What? That name! That name! That name is legendary. He is this girl's master?' The military doctor showed a shocked face when he lifted up his face and looked at Yu Qi.

'What is this mean? Why he looks so shocked? Did I do something?' Yu Qi kept asking herself. Unable to find the answer on her own, she turned to Long Hui.

"What is this situation?" Yu Qi whispered to Long Hui.

"He was shocked by hearing the name of your grandfather."

"Why?"

"Maybe that name is a legend. Every doctor respects your grandfather."

"No wonder your skills are so impressive." The military doctor finally snapped out of his own world.

"Thank you." Yu Qi smiled.

"So, is she okay, then?" Shi Man Xie asked.

"Yes, she just needs to rest properly for two more days." The military doctor explained.

"Good, then." Shi Man Xie took a breath of relief.

"Miss Zhu, you will be excused from the training for the next three days." Long Hui gave an extra day for Zhu Xiao Ling to rest.

"Okay, Commander Long." Zhu Xiao Ling accepted it. 

"I will bring you back to your room." Shi Man Xie said.

"No need. I can walk by myself." Zhu Xiao Ling rejected.

"But you must not put any weight on your ankle for the next two days." Shi Man Xie said, worried about Zhu Xiao Ling.

"It is okay for her to walk but just don't add much pressure to the legs." The military doctor said.

"See, the doctor said it is okay for me to walk." Zhu Xiao Ling stood up slowly.

"Okay." Shi Man Xie gave up but he still looked very worried about Zhu Xiao Ling.

"Let's go eat first. It is already lunchtime. I bet everyone is about to eat." Long Hui said.

So, the four of them went to the dining hall. As Long Hui said, the shooting club members were already in the dining hall. When the shooting club members saw them entering the dining hall, they rushed to them to find out about Zhu Xiao Ling's condition.

"I'm okay. I just need to rest for about two to three days." Zhu Xiao Ling answered the shooting club members' concerns.
