Lin Yao felt that all the suffering she had endured during this period was thanks to Zhou Qiqi.
The thought of Zhou Qiqi's arrogant attitude at the military hospital made her furious.
Her head was throbbing with a mix of old and new grudges. She raised her hand and slashed out with her claws, the sharp nails digging straight for the other person's philtrum.
Unexpectedly, when her fingernail was still an inch away from Zhou Qiqi's face, her wrist suddenly felt like it was being clamped by iron clamps, and it hurt terribly.
"I can do it."
After saying this, Shen Huaichuan turned around and called to Zhao Yi, telling him to quickly get a cold towel.
His eyes were like they were filled with ice shards. Lin Yao felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her wrists were burning with pain. She immediately lost her spirit and rolled her eyes.
"If you want to come, then come."
She had no intention of treating Zhou Qiqi at all; she wished that this country vixen would never wake up.
Zhao Yi moved swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, he handed over the cold towel.
Shen Huaichuan gently placed a towel on Zhou Qiqi's forehead, and the sudden coolness made her frown.
Seeing that she reacted, Shen Huaichuan quickly pressed down hard on her philtrum with his fingernails, while also pinching and kneading it rapidly.
"pain..."
A moment later, Zhou Qiqi mumbled something, her eyelashes fluttering, and slowly opened her eyes.
Shen Huaichuan quickly grasped her hand, "Qiqi, you're awake? Where do you feel unwell?"
"I..."
Zhou Qiqi clutched her stomach. Her lower abdomen was swollen and painful, her back ached, and she felt like she had been run over by a truck. She was dizzy, nauseous, and needed to urinate. Cold sweat poured down her face.
What's even more embarrassing is that my lower body feels sticky.
As a woman, she naturally knew what was going on, and shook her head weakly, "It's nothing."
Before the words were even finished, someone shouted at the top of their lungs, "Doctor! Come quick! She's awake! Let's see what happened!"
Zhou Qiqi's vision went black for a moment. She barely managed to lift her eyes and saw that everything around her was blindingly white. The smell of disinfectant filled her nostrils. She frowned and asked.
"Where am I...?"
Looking up, she saw another annoying face, "Lin Yao?"
Shen Huaichuan said softly, "It's the military dependents' district health clinic. She's a new doctor. You fainted, so Battalion Commander Zhao and I brought you here."
She actually went to the clinic because of menstrual cramps!
Zhou Qiqi's face flushed red, and she reached out to grab Shen Huaichuan's hand, trying to get up.
"Um... I'm fine now, let's go home."
Shen Huaichuan was about to refuse, but seeing her eyes, he immediately understood her thoughts and nodded.
Little did they know that Zhao Yi would start shouting from the side.
"That won't do! How can my sister-in-law walk when she's in so much pain? Doctor! You need to take a look right now! Take her temperature, check her blood pressure, and give me a proper diagnosis! Otherwise, I'll never forgive you!"
Zhao Yi was a big, burly man. Lin Yao was initially a little afraid of him, but now she retorted confidently.
"Why are you taking her temperature and blood pressure? What serious illness could she have? It's just her period, isn't it? What woman doesn't have her period? She's not going to faint! I've never seen anyone so dramatic!"
Just now, Zhou Qiqi had been clutching her stomach as soon as she woke up. Lin Yao glanced at her and saw some bloodstains on her pants. She already knew what had happened, but she was too lazy to say anything.
When someone pressed her for answers, she simply blurted it all out, since it wasn't her who was embarrassed!
"Something's wrong? You mean..."
Zhao Yi didn't react at first, and subconsciously looked at Zhou Qiqi's lower body.
Zhou Qiqi was extremely embarrassed and wanted to hide but didn't know how. Fortunately, Shen Huaichuan stood up in time to block Zhao Yi's view.
"Go drive the car."
"Okay!"
Although Zhao Yi was a countryman, he had five children with his wife, so he knew what to do and quickly ran out.
Just as Shen Huaichuan was about to leave with Zhou Qiqi, Zhou Qiqi suddenly stopped and asked in a gentle tone.
"Dr. Lin, could you prescribe me some painkillers?"
She was in so much pain that she felt she couldn't take it anymore.
Lin Yao stood there with her arms crossed, not even lifting her eyelids, and shrugged her shoulders.
"I can't prescribe it. I just transferred here, I don't know where the medicines are, let alone whether they're expired. What if I prescribe the wrong medicine? Right, Chief's wife?"
Zhou Qiqi hadn't held out much hope anyway, and after glancing at Shen Huaichuan, she said, "Never mind then, let's go."
Seeing Zhou Qiqi's distressed state, Lin Yao felt incredibly pleased and secretly cursed.
"So you've finally met your match? Want painkillers? Dream on! I hope you're in excruciating pain!"
In the courtyard, Zhao Yi had just turned his car around when Qiu Chunfang rushed over aggressively with her son. "Zhao Yi! What are you doing!"
"Commander Shen's wife was sick and fainted, so I drove her here."
Zhao Yi gestured towards the examination room with his lip, "I'm fine now, I'm going home."
Qiu Chunfang pinched him hard.
"You're so kind! Don't you see how Shen Huaichuan's wife treated me? She practically pushed me into a cesspool!"
Zhao Yi pursed his lips.
"Isn't that just asking for trouble? Commander Shen has helped our family so much, and you still go and provoke his wife..."
"Why are you siding with outsiders? She was the one who started it on the train! And..."
Qiu Chunfang stood with her hands on her hips, babbling on and on, looking like she was about to start a fight, which annoyed Zhao Yi.
"Shut your mouth! This isn't the place to argue! Go home!"
Qiu Chunfang glared at him, and just as she was about to leave, her eyes darted around.
"You go first, I brought the child to get some medicine. This clinic hasn't been open for two months, and the medicine at home is almost expired."
