Chapter 64: Had No Face to Show to Others
When Gu Qingjiu woke up, the sky outside was close to warm orange light.
And it felt as though someone was walking back and forth beside her.
And there were voices as well.
“She’s been unconscious for so long. When do you think she will wake up? Oh my gosh, it’s my first time seeing a girl hurting this much from period cramps. Did you see? It shocked even our Young Master He. Isn’t she something?”
“I think if you continue to talk behind his back like that, he won’t let you off easily.”
Two voices; one rough and another gentle.
They were both voices that Gu Qingjiu was used to.
Her eyelids trembled open, and she found out that she was in the infirmary.
Someone was sitting by her side and was casually munching on an apple. This figure looked familiar… she then suddenly realized that it was Huo Yingcheng.
Nan Yingxuan turned around to see that Gu Qingjiu had opened her eyes. He smiled. “You’re awake?”
Huo Yingcheng turned around to look at her upon hearing that.
Gu Qingjiu felt a little disconcerted for the first time.
She was sure that the reason she was there was she fainted from the pain.
But to have these two men watching over her, it held a strangeness hard to describe.
And why was Huo Yingcheng in the infirmary for the entire day!?
Didn’t he have anything else to do?
Gu Qingjiu was already conscious enough to realize that the two men in front of her probably knew about her embarrassing situation.
Pursing her lips, she spoke in a soft voice, “Commander Huo, Doctor Nan, how long have I been unconscious for?”
“Qingjiu, you lass. You fainted for quite a while. Did you know that the instructor himself carried you here earlier in the morning? And your dorm mate was crying so badly because of the shock, and I just managed to convince her to go to the canteen to get you some food.”
“…”
That was definitely Yu Bao’er.
But what she didn’t expect was that Instructor Chen carried her there! Gu Qingjiu felt even more embarrassed.
So that would mean that everyone knew?
Thinking about how she had fainted because of her painful cramps made Gu Qingjiu feel more uncomfortable.
Nan Yingxuan held a syringe with medicine. Seeing how embarrassed she was, he explained, “If it hurts bad, you should immediately have yourself checked in the hospital since there are benefits in training in the camp as well. I already did a basic check on you and it shows that your constitution is poor. Since you’ve just entered the camp, your body is still unfamiliar with all the intense training; hence, the pain is massive this time around. You probably haven’t fainted because of this before, have you?”
Gu Qingjiu nodded. “This is my first time fainting because of the pain.”
“It will get better next time, especially when you’ve improved your constitution. It’s your poor health that made it feel so painful. Avoid things which are raw or spicy next time and the pain would gradually stop.”
Although what Nan Yingxuan was saying was simply a doctor’s advice, him saying it in front of other people present was still awkward for her. Even more so when Huo Yingcheng chuckled, and he commented, “Qingjiu you lass, you have no idea. Your Chief Instructor was around too when we carried you over here. When he found out that you fainted because of period cramps, it befuddled him.”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
She wanted to die.
Or didn’t want to wake up.
“Commander Huo, I think you can keep your voice down. Qingjiu is a girl.”
Nan Yingxuan softly reminded Huo Yingcheng, and the latter immediately shut his mouth. “Oh, I’m sorry…”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
There was nothing else she could say.
This was the first time since her rebirth that she felt like she had no face to show to others.
