Chapter 327: Hiding

Did something happen to her older brother?

That was the first thought that popped into Gu Qingjiu’s mind when she heard Qi Xiaoran.

And that blood on her waist…

Could the cause of her fever be the wound?

Qi Xiaoran was probably muddled from the fever and didn’t have any reaction. All she did was to grab onto Gu Qingjiu’s elbow.

And she continuously repeated her words.

The sweat droplets on her head became denser as if she was having a nightmare.

Gu Qingjiu pulled Qi Xiaoran’s clothes apart as she took a look at Qi Xiaoran’s injury.

And she frowned immediately.

The wound had only been briefly taken care of. The white bandage which was on her waist was soaked in b.l.o.o.d.y red.

Gu Qingjiu was afraid to aggravate her wound so she did not dare to probe further.

After some hesitation, she carefully helped Qi Xiaoran lie down and felt for her phone from her bed. She then called her older brother.

“Older brother?”

“Mm, Qingjiu, what’s the matter?”

Gu Qingmo’s cheerful voice replied, but his background was slightly noisy. It was as if he was at a rowdy place.

Where could Gu Qingmo be this early in the morning?

“Older brother, didn’t you mention last time that my roommate’s older brother was actually your roommate, that Qi Yefan? Qi Xiaoran is his younger sister? There is something I need him for.”

After thinking about it, Gu Qingjiu eventually decided to inform Qi Xiaoran’s older brother.

In the military school, Gu Qingjiu never heard Qi Xiaoran mention another person aside from her older brother.

With such a serious injury, she definitely should get her older brother to deal with it.

She wanted to help but at the same time, she was afraid that she would aggravate things.

“Yefan? Yefan’s here!” Gu Qingmo was a little stunned. “I will pa.s.s the phone to him?”

After speaking, he was immediately talking to Qi Yefan.

Seeing that he could talk to him so quickly, a few of them must have been together.

“h.e.l.lo?”

After a few seconds, Gu Qingjiu heard a cold and dark voice.

The complete opposite of Qi Xiaoran’s sunny one.

Gu Qingjiu had no time to bother herself with whatever misunderstanding Qi Yefan had about her. She said directly, “Something happened to Qi Xiaoran. She seemed to be injured on her waist and is currently having a fever. I gave her medicine…”

She spoke quickly but before she could complete her sentence, Qi Yefan’s anxious voice cut her off. “Injured? How did Ran Ran get injured?”

“I don’t know. She came back very late last night. I only realized that she was having a fever this morning and found out that she was also injured.”

Gu Qingjiu tried her best to articulate clearly and quickly to not spark any misunderstanding.

‘Beep!’

Qi Yefan hung up the call directly.

Gu Qingjiu couldn’t be bothered. She said what she needed to say.

It was instead Gu Qingmo who called her back a while later. “Qingjiu, what happened? Yefan rushed out. I have never seen him like that before…”

“Her younger sister is having a fever.”

In order to prevent the news from leaking, Gu Qingjiu only talked about Qi Xiaoran’s fever.

“Oh, no wonder he’s panicking.” A fever was probably not too serious for Gu Qingmo so his tone was still casual. “Qi Yefan dotes on her younger sister so much, so definitely will get anxious if her sister falls sick. Whenever they had video calls, he would always back face us, and the few times she came over, he would always hide her and not let us see! He’s not like me!”

The moment Gu Qingjiu came, he wanted to introduce her to his roommates.

Hearing that, Gu Qingjiu became unsure whether to laugh or to cry. “Okay, okay. I will go and take care of Qi Xiaoran.”

“Sure, I’ll hang up then.”
