Chapter 531: Sent to the Infirmary

Amid the sounds, resulting from her fidgeting, Qi Xiaoran was the first to open her eyes.

She always had keen senses in the late night. With the two bunks linked, she could sense movement in the lower bunk.

Since the lights were already out in the dormitory, she turned on the torchlight function on her phone. She then used it to illuminate the lower bunk.

The light illuminated Gu Qingjiu’s deathly pale face.

Even if the lighting was white, to begin with, Qi Xiaoran could still see that something wasn’t quite right with Gu Qingjiu’s countenance.

She got up and went down to the lower bunk. Upon closer look, she saw that sweat had covered Gu Qingjiu’s forehead.

She reached out a hand and realized that Gu Qingjiu’s collar was drenched in sweat. It appeared that she was soaked in water or something.

Even her forehead felt extremely hot.

Was Gu Qingjiu running a fever?

Qi Xiaoran froze. She wasn’t expecting this because Gu Qingjiu was still alright before they went to bed.

Qi Xiaoran remembered that her fever previously was because of her injury. But Gu Qingjiu didn’t seem to have any injuries on her…

But since it was an urgent situation, Qi Xiaoran sat down beside Gu Qingjiu and softly called out her name, “Gu Qingjiu, Gu Qingjiu.”

As Gu Qingjiu responded with a hum in a dream-like state, her countenance suddenly turned awful.

As though it took her much effort to even respond with that hum.

Gu Qian and Chu Lian, who were sound asleep by the side, were startled awake.

Chu Lian sat up with her eyes narrowed. Finding the light in Qi Xiaoran’s hands piercing, she blocked it out with her hands. “Xiaoran, what’s the matter?”

Qi Xiaoran said in a low voice, “Gu Qingjiu seems to be running a fever.”

Moreover, it seemed more serious than her condition before.

She reached out to touch the bed underneath Gu Qingjiu’s body, and she realized that the girl’s cold sweat had already soaked it wet.

Judging by the volume of sweat, she was afraid Gu Qingjiu would collapse from this.

“Fever?”

The shocked Gu Qian instantly snapped awake and got out of bed. Without even putting on her shoes, she edged closer to look.

Indeed, she saw that Gu Qingjiu’s face was terrifyingly pale.

Despite her keen senses, she didn’t even open her eyes to look at Qi Xiaoran and Gu Qian when they came over to crowd around her.

“Her state is too terrifying. This won’t do. We’ve got to send her to the infirmary immediately.”

Gu Qian wiped her forehead. Behind her, Chu Lian also quickly put on her shoes and got out of bed.

“Why is she suddenly running a fever? The weather hasn’t changed yet, so she shouldn’t be running a fever.”

Chu Lian didn’t understand why it was happening.

Although they were slowly transitioning to a new season these past few days, the temperature change was gradual. With such weather, Gu Qingjiu shouldn’t be catching a fever that easily, especially that she was one who underwent training at a military school.

“Let’s stop talking about this since it already happened.”

Gu Qian urged her, “Let’s quickly send Qingjiu to the infirmary. Look at how dehydrated she is now. Who knows what would happen if we send her there any later.”

As they spoke, Qi Xiaoran picked up her military jacket from the clothes rack and put it on. She then lowered her body and pulled Gu Qingjiu up from the bed.

“Ooh…”

The uncomfortable sensation of being pulled made Gu Qingjiu let out a sound of protest.

Qi Xiaoran lowered her body and carried her on her back. “I’ll carry her over there. You guys inform the teacher in the infirmary.”

The infirmary doctor couldn’t possibly be waiting around for students at this hour.

But they would sleep in the infirmary.

Looking at the time, it was one in the morning.

From the looks of it, Gu Qingjiu probably had been feeling terrible for a while now.

If it wasn’t because she kept fidgeting, Qi Xiaoran might have not gotten up to check.

“Okay, sure.”

The duo responded. The three hurriedly sent Gu Qingjiu to the infirmary.

There were no lights along the way, so Gu Qian illuminated their path ahead with her phone.
