Then,

she saw Qin Feng carrying a rather pretty girl on his back, walking toward her.

Moreover,

that girl had turned her head and pressed it against Qin Feng's back,

giving the impression of a fairly intimate relationship.

Seeing this scene,

Xu Qin's body stiffened slightly,

and then she inexplicably felt a bit angry.

Although what happened yesterday,

Xu Qin and Qin Feng had both tacitly agreed not to mention,

and Xu Qin had also believed in her heart that it was merely her momentary loneliness that led to such an absurd incident with Qin Feng.

Yet,

when she saw with her own eyes,

Qin Feng carrying another girl,

and that girl resting securely against Qin Feng's back,

Xu Qin's heart suddenly felt as if it were soaked in a jar of century-old aged vinegar.

Seeing Xu Qin,

Qin Feng quickened his pace.

Yu Zhouzhou on his back seemed to sense something,

looked up,

and saw a beautiful female doctor ahead staring at Qin Feng and herself,

so she hurriedly lifted her head and tried to keep some distance from Qin Feng.

Arriving before Xu Qin,

Qin Feng said directly: "Doctor Xu, student Yu Zhouzhou has sprained her ankle. Please take a look and see if it's serious."

"Understood."

Xu Qin replied with a blank expression,

asked Qin Feng to place Yu Zhouzhou on a chair,

then squatted down and began to slowly touch Yu Zhouzhou's foot,

while Qin Feng stood aside, watching silently.

"Student Yu Zhouzhou, does it hurt here?"

As Xu Qin spoke, she pressed Yu Zhouzhou's ankle.

Yu Zhouzhou frowned but only nodded.

Seeing this, Xu Qin pressed several more spots in succession.

After seeing Yu Zhouzhou nod each time,

she finally stood up: "Student Yu Zhouzhou, the problem is somewhat tricky."

"Judging from your pain response, it shouldn't be a simple sprain or dislocation; there might be a slight hairline fracture."

"How about this: come with me to the school clinic to get a CT scan and check the specific situation."

Yu Zhouzhou thought for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Doctor, may I ask, will it cost money?"

Xu Qin was slightly surprised.

She looked at Yu Zhouzhou but did not answer immediately.

In fact,

although the Qingbei school clinic distributes various medicines to students for free and performs related examinations for free,

yet,

examinations such as CT scans and color ultrasound involve medical costs and are all chargeable,

only relatively speaking,

the school's fees might be cheaper than those of regular hospitals.

The reason Xu Qin did not answer immediately

was that she saw embarrassment on Yu Zhouzhou's face.

Although at this moment, she could not judge Yu Zhouzhou's true situation from her clothing and appearance,

Xu Qin still guessed that

Yu Zhouzhou must be a child from a poor family,

which was why, when encountering an emergency, the first thing she worried about was whether it would cost money.

Regarding this,

Xu Qin, as a doctor, could do nothing to help,

because Xu Qin was not the actual school doctor and had no special authority to grant fee waivers.

So,

Xu Qin frowned and looked at Qin Feng, then gave him a glance.

Seeing Xu Qin give him a glance,

Qin Feng understood instantly,

and then immediately said: "Zhouzhou, Doctor Xu is here to provide support and doesn't know the specific details. Actually, our school clinic does not charge for CT scans, and all follow-up treatments are also free."

"That's good."

After hearing Qin Feng's words, Yu Zhouzhou clearly became less tense.

Seeing this, Qin Feng,

turned to Xu Qin and once again hoisted Yu Zhouzhou onto his shoulders, then asked: "Doctor Xu, shall we go to the school clinic now?"

"Mm."

Xu Qin murmured in reply, her expression growing even more grim.

From the medical station to the school clinic,

it took nearly ten minutes,

but with Xu Qin present,

Yu Zhouzhou, on Qin Feng's back, remained silent.

Meanwhile, Xu Qin deliberately caused trouble,

deliberately slowing her pace,

turning what should have been a ten-minute walk

into a journey of over fifteen minutes.

Yet,

Qin Feng's expression showed nothing but ease,

as if carrying Yu Zhouzhou for fifteen minutes meant nothing to him.

Arriving at the school clinic,

Xu Qin first explained Yu Zhouzhou's condition to the medical technician,

then whispered a few additional instructions,

and only then,

did she and Qin Feng carry Yu Zhouzhou into the CT room.

While Yu Zhouzhou underwent the CT scan,

Xu Qin turned to Qin Feng and asked: "Qin Feng, your girlfriend?"

"No."

Qin Feng answered sharply,

then smiled at Xu Qin and retorted: "Jealous?"

"No."

Xu Qin frowned and shook her head in denial.

Not wanting to admit it means she does!
