Chapter 494: Don’t Stick Needles Randomly

Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Don’t Stick Needles Randomly

Although Ling Qingxue was considered unapproachable, her popularity was by no means low.

If it weren’t for her obsession with research, with eyes only for her biological sciences, she might well have become the center of everyone’s attention long ago.

"Can’t you look further into the future?"

As soon as someone mentioned that all they could see was the goddess Ling Qingxue, someone immediately countered, "The senior from our third year is old news, we need to look to the future, understand?"

"I worked hard to get into Imperial Capital University just for Goddess Ling Qingxue. Otherwise, I would’ve gone to the university next door."

"Oh, so you had a goal. Not bad, kid."

"...But speaking of which, isn’t Shi Yaoguang a freshman? All freshmen have to undergo military training, right? Why isn’t she here?"

"I don’t know, did she take a leave of absence?"

"I don’t think so?"

As the conversation continued, someone spoke up, "Aren’t we all accounted for?"

Everyone knew how many freshmen there were.

So...

With no one missing from the count, yet Shi Yaoguang nowhere to be seen, was this a supernatural event or something else?

Of course, most people were more inclined to believe it was a supernatural event.

"Could it be that we have an extra person among the freshmen?"

After confirming that they didn’t spot the person they remembered in the crowd, doubt immediately set in among them.

Others chimed in, "It’s possible."

No sooner had they finished speaking than they saw a figure in camouflage falter and fall to the ground.

Seeing a girl fall, someone immediately cried out.

"Bei Ranran has fallen!"

Upon hearing this shout, everyone subconsciously gathered to check on her condition.

Someone quickly realized they shouldn’t crowd around an ill person.

"Give her some space, don’t use up all the oxygen."

The speaker was rather humorous, and everyone took several steps back, distancing themselves from Bei Ranran.

At this point, those who didn’t move their feet stood out.

Everyone watched as a stunning figure half-knelt beside Bei Ranran, pressing fingers to her pulse, and instinctively felt that this classmate must be able to cure Bei Ranran.

Just from her actions, she seemed to have the bearing of a great general.

However, they quickly came to their senses.

This was definitely an illusion!

The girl checking the pulse was wearing the same freshman military uniform as them, clearly a classmate.

How old were they?

Being a classmate, this girl’s age was evident, and it was impossible for her to have any significant achievements.

If she administered first aid and Bei Ranran was fine, all would be well, but if something went wrong, it could become a situation too complicated to explain away.

After this thought arose, everyone intended to speak up and dissuade her.

This time, it was still the tall and slim boy who was one step ahead.

"Classmate, don’t act recklessly!"

Lin Sizhe spoke anxiously, "We know you mean well, but if you accidentally injure her, it won’t be good for either of you. We’ll immediately notify the instructor..."

He hadn’t finished speaking when the girl lifted her head.

At military training, nobody wore masks.

As Shi Yaoguang raised her head, Lin Sizhe could clearly see her face.

He suddenly inhaled sharply.

"Hiss—"

Hearing this hiss, the others grew puzzled and looked over.

Then, a series of gasps followed one after the other.

"You, you..."

"You’re Shi Yaoguang?!"

Shi Yaoguang nodded her head.

Everyone was astounded.

Such a great beauty had been queuing with them, and they hadn’t even noticed her!

It simply defied science!

The reason Shi Yaoguang had gone unnoticed was entirely because she had deliberately lowered her presence.

She had stepped forward to help save someone.

Lin Sizhe was shocked for a good while before he finally came to his senses and anxiously asked, "You know Chinese medicine?"

Shi Yaoguang replied, "A little."

Lin Sizhe was even more shocked.

These days, there weren’t many who genuinely knew Chinese medicine.

And Shi Yaoguang actually did!

While he was still in shock, Shi Yaoguang had already diagnosed Bei Ranran’s condition.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard a cry of alarm, "Shi Yaoguang, what are you doing?"

Shi Yaoguang instinctively looked towards the source of the voice, and the others turned their heads following the sound, landing on Shi Yiqing with a disgruntled face.

Shi Yiqing had been brought over by Miao Jingjing.

Miao Jingjing expressed the manner an enthusiastic, brainless fan should, which greatly pleased Shi Yiqing.

Being satisfied, she didn’t mind cooperating with Miao Jingjing’s desire to show off to her classmates and followed her from Zhongying to this place.

But as soon as she arrived, she saw Shi Yaoguang taking the pulse of someone who had fainted.

This gave her a handle to grab onto.

She immediately called out with a look of concern for the victim.

"Shi Yaoguang, even if you want to show off, you can’t just do whatever you want, right? Do you know what the consequences could be if you mess with someone who’s unconscious? What if she ends up with some disability for life, can you afford that responsibility?"

The onlookers frowned at this remark.

Shi Yiqing’s words were a bit too harsh.

They looked at Shi Yaoguang, wanting to know her thoughts.

But Shi Yaoguang didn’t seem to have any intention of dealing with people at all.

Instead, she seemed to pull out several silver needles from nowhere and began inserting them into Bei Ranran’s face.

The crowd was stunned by her actions.

So much so that they didn’t manage to stop her in time.

By the time they realized what was happening, Shi Yaoguang had already finished.

"Shi Yaoguang, what did you do to her?"

Shi Yiqing was inwardly thrilled but her face showed disapproval.

Shi Yaoguang responded indifferently, "What does it matter to you what I did to her?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yiqing immediately put on a hurt expression, "I’m just kindly concerned. Do you know the consequences of needling carelessly? Do you know what could happen if you get it wrong?"

Shi Yaoguang continued to respond lightly: "No need to worry."

"You—" Shi Yiqing became a bit annoyed, "Can’t you stop being so childish!"

"Childish?" Shi Yaoguang looked up, as if she had finally heard something interesting, "How am I being childish?"

"You’re still asking!" Shi Yiqing huffed, pointing at Bei Ranran on the ground, "You deliberately needled her face to get attention. Isn’t that childish?"

As she spoke, her tone carried a hint of frustration, "I understand that you want to stand out, but your actions are simply harmful to others and to yourself..."

Shi Yaoguang didn’t wait for her to finish and made a gesture to pause.

"Hold on a moment."

Having interrupted her, Shi Yaoguang confidently said, "I don’t seek attention by randomly needling someone’s face."

Shi Yiqing’s face turned scornful, "You still want to argue!"

"The needles are still in her face!"

Shi Yaoguang pursed her lips, "Then I’ll remove them now."

As she spoke, she moved as if in slow motion, her fingertips touching the ends of the needles, unhurriedly removing the ones she had inserted into Bei Ranran’s face.
