Love So Sweet

720 I’ll Show You the Way

While Teacher Shen was interrogating the others, Fu Chen carried Bai Xi Xi on his back, wanting to look for the infirmary.

Fu Chen was holding Bai Xi Xi’s legs securely as he climbed up the stairs. The look on his face was serious. Fu Chen was walking around hurriedly to get to the infirmary.

It made Bai Xi Xi who was piggybacked worried that she might fall. Subconsciously, Bai Xi Xi tried to hold Fu Chen’s shoulder tighter.

At this time, Qi Zheng was most concerned about Bai Xi Xi’s legs. He was worried that if something happened to her legs, Bai Xi Xi would not be able to play basketball anymore.

Therefore, Fu Chen wanted Bai Xi Xi to get early treatment so that Bai Xi Xi could continue to play the sport she liked the most.

However, the moment he arrived at the top floor, Fu Chen finally realized something important: He did not know where is the infirmary located...

Fu Chen stood at the top stairs while staring ahead. His brain was working hard, trying to remember if he knew this place...

Bai Xi Xi pursed her lips as Fu Chen stood at the top of the stairs for a long time.

Actually, Bai Xi Xi was finding it awkward for her to be carried piggyback by Fu Chen.

.....

She was worried that she might fall. Therefore, Bai Xi Xi has been holding Fu Chen’s shoulder tightly.

Their closeness made her shy as she had never been this close with a boy her age.

Most of all, Bai Xi Xi did not want to be a burden.

Seeing that Fu Chen was standing in place for a long time made her anxious. Bai Xi Xi patted Fu Chen lightly on the shoulder and spoke, “That... Fu Chen... Am I too heavy? Just put me down. I can walk.”

Fu Chen snapped out of his thought when he heard Bai Xi Xi’s voice. Worried that she might fall, Fu Chen chose to hold Bai Xi Xi a little tighter. “Don’t move around.” He warned as Bai Xi Xi wriggled to get off his back. “Otherwise, you might fall.”

Sensing the anxiousness in Fu Chen’s voice, Bai Xi Xi finally stopped moving around.

Fu Chen inhaled a deep breath. He adjusted Bai Xi Xi on his back and coughed. “Class Monitor, I just realized that I don’t know where the infirmary is.”

There was a long silence before Bai Xi Xi’s laughter echoed in the hall.

Fu Chen was embarrassed for a few seconds. Then, he also thought that this situation was a little funny and began to chuckle as well.

But... Bai Xi Xi’s laughing voice was too close to his ear. Fu Chen thought that her voice sounded nice and his face turned a little red.

Bai Xi Xi who often had a serious look on her face had a beautiful smile and melodious laughter.

At this time, Fu Chen was glad that Bai Xi Xi could not see his face. Perhaps she would think that he was being weird if she saw the look on his face.

Finally, Bai Xi Xi broke the silence between them. “Alright then. I”ll show you the way. Just... don’t walk around too fast.”

Bai Xi Xi pointed out the direction to the infirmary slowly.

This time, Fu Chen was no longer as anxious, or walking too fast. Fu Chen decided that taking his time to carry the Class Monitor on his back was also good.

He liked hearing the sound of her voice and the warmth on his back.

Then, he wondered if this would make him sound a little selfish.

After walking around for a while, they finally reached the infirmary.

The school’s nurse who was in charge of the infirmary raised her head when she heard some movement.

Seeing that Fu Chen was walking into the room while carrying someone on his back, the nurse quickly stood up.

“Hello,” Fu Chen greeted politely.

“What’s wrong?” The nurse walked over to look at the student behind Fu Chen. “Student Bai Xi Xi?”

Bai Xi Xi was quite well-known among the teachers and staff in the school. Previously, she had also helped to bring a few students to the infirmary. Therefore, it was not strange for the nurse to recognize her.

It was just that... this was the first time that the nurse saw someone carrying her in.

“I might sprained my ankle,” Bai Xi Xi said.

The nurse pointed to the bed on the side. “Quickly, put her on the bed.”

Fu Chen followed the nurse’s instructions and placed Bai Xi Xi gently on the bed.

The moment her weight was no longer behind him, Fu Chen could not help but feel a sense of loss.

But that feeling quickly disappeared and was replaced by worry again when he saw the school’s nurse was checking on Bai Xi Xi’s injury.

He stood at the side while watching them with a serious look in his eyes. It was as if Fu Chen did not want to miss anything as the nurse was checking on Bai Xi Xi.

“Does it hurt?” The nurse asked as she touched Bai Xi Xi’s ankle.

Fu Chen raised his head to look at Bai Xi Xi’s reaction and saw the little frown between her brow.

“It hurts a little bit.” Bai Xi Xi heaved in relief when the pain was not as much as she thought it would be.

The nurse continued to check on Bai Xi Xi’s injury with Fu Chen watching them.

After a while, the nurse finally retracted her hands. “Fortunately, it wasn’t sprained that badly. I think it would be better after resting for a couple of days.”

“But, she can’t seem to get up after that fall. Is she really alright?” Fu Chen asked with concern.

The nurse went to check on Bai Xi Xi again. “Mmm...” She turned to Fu Chen and flashed a smile. “It’s alright. I’ll go and take the ice for her. Classmate, can you stay here and look for your friend for a while? If there’s anyone coming to look for me, tell them that I went to pick up some ice.”

Fu Chen nodded and watched as the nurse leave.
