Chapter 227

"So..." Before Song Huan could finish speaking, she suddenly felt her hand that hadn't yet loosened its grip on Qin Wei being stuck. She reflexively grabbed Qin Wei's wrist and twisted it behind her back into a handcuffed position, completely restraining her.

Qin Wei immediately let out a painful cry.

"What are you doing! Let her go!"

Li Hanming, who was originally sitting in the team watching Song Huan demonstrate and chat happily, suddenly noticed something was wrong. He got up and ran over to push Song Huan away to make her let go.

But years of combat experience meant her body reacted before her mind could make a judgment. The only thing Song Huan thought of in that instant was the tragic ambush situation from when she was executing a mission many years ago.

By the time she came to her senses, Qin Wei was already lying on the ground painfully clutching her arm.

Song Huan felt a little regretful, it was all her fault, perhaps Qin Wei had just wanted to pull her up to stand...

"Sis Wei, Sis Wei what's wrong with your arm?"

Li Hanming knelt on the ground to help her up but was stopped by Song Huan.

Song Huan didn't say anything. She knelt on one knee to check Qin Wei's injury. Based on experience she simply judged it as a dislocation, but whether there was any other damage could only be determined after further examination. "Go to the infirmary."

Song Huan was just about to pick her up when the boy in front of her snatched Qin Wei first.

"Don't touch her, I can do it myself."

Li Hanming's tone was cold. He carried Qin Wei and ran to the infirmary almost at a sprinting pace.

"Zheng Qiancheng continue the assessment! I'll go take a look!"

Seeing Zheng Qiancheng who had just left coming back, Song Huan yelled at him before jogging away.

"What's the situation?"

Zheng Qiancheng scratched his head in confusion. He'd only gone to the door to pick someone up. How did things get so lively after he came back?

"Instructor Zheng? Where's my kid?" Li Yao who was at the side asked.

...

"Doctor! Doctor please come take a look at her!"

Although Qin Wei didn't weigh much, having to run such a distance while carrying her still expended a lot of energy. By the time the doctor took Qin Wei from him, Li Hanming felt his legs go soft. If not for leaning against the wall he would've sat down on the floor.

The doctors on duty were military doctors well experienced in dealing with sprains and injuries. Li Hanming didn't even get to explain what happened before the doctor had already judged that the most urgent need for the patient was to relocate her joints.

But there was only one doctor on duty. The doctor could only ask Li Hanming to help.

"Let me do it."

Song Huan had also rushed over. Seeing Li Hanming still panting for breath, she patted his shoulder signaling for him to rest first while she would go into the infirmary to help.

Reaching the door she heard painful whimpers coming from inside. Song Huan took a deep breath and walked in, routinely saluting the doctor before bending over to firmly press Qin Wei onto the sickbed according to the doctor's instructions.

Qin Wei was already furious to begin with. She didn't even have time to react before her arm got twisted like this. The pain kept hitting her in waves, she couldn't think at all.

But upon seeing Song Huan, she knew that her current state was all because of her.

She wanted to yell at Song Huan to get lost, she wanted to scold her, but she couldn't get the words out from the pain. All she could do was glare at Song Huan through gritted teeth, with tears pooling in her eyes.

Seeing her like this made Song Huan feel awful inside too. She shouldn't have treated Qin Wei like that in the first place. If she hadn't called Qin Wei up, she would probably already be on the way to that party by now.

"Hold her tight, don't let her move."

As the doctor spoke, he pressed down on one of her shoulders with a hand while firmly grasping her arm with the other.

With a loud snap, the pain intensified again briefly before subsiding.

The doctor heaved a sigh of relief. This kind of relocation was trivial to him. Everyone training here got banged up sometimes.

But she was still a girl after all, looking soft and delicate. Seeing her like this he couldn't help but feel a little bad.

The doctor looked at Qin Wei with a sigh. While helping to secure her arm with a bandage, he said:

"Not bad girl, looking delicate but enduring the immense pain from relocating without crying."

At that moment Qin Wei had a bellyful of anger and was in no mood to appreciate the doctor's words. She threw the doctor a dirty look before glaring fiercely back at Song Huan:

"Let go of me then get lost ..."

Song Huan also didn't dare provoke her further. She got up and moved to the side, softly saying:

"Qin Wei... I'm sorry..."

The doctor walked over to fetch some bandages while securing her arm and reminded:

"Alright, go get an X-ray to check for other injuries.

If there are any, return to Beijing to arrange for surgery or further treatment. If not, then go home to recuperate for a few days. Dislocations may seem trivial but the aftermath if not nursed properly is irreversible."

"How can I possibly recuperate?"

It was then that Li Hanming finally caught his breath. He shoved the door open and walked in. Seeing Qin Wei's pitiful state he felt his throat choke up and was on the verge of tears. But he still forced himself to stay composed as he said:

"Sis, your flight has been delayed to the next one. Get your company to arrange transport to the airport now. Call the airport VIP clinic on the way to schedule an X-ray. Get it done as soon as you land, the results will be out right on time. This saves the most time without affecting anything."

After listening, even the doctor felt it was going overboard:

"Rest here in the infirmary today. In her condition she shouldn't be going anywhere."

Li Hanming wiped his nearly overflowing tears and spread open his hands towards Song Huan asking:

"Give me your phone, I know you have one."

Song Huan looked up at him:

"What do you want it for?"

"To contact her company and the airport, I know the procedures for making appointments since whenever we have back-to-back schedules and get injured this is what we do."

Seeing her lack of response, Li Hanming grew a little impatient. "Hurry up and give it to me!"

"The doctor said her condition means she can't go. Let her rest here, I'll contact her manager later. Getting injured, health comes first not some party. You should go back to train..."

"Song Huan, stop assuming you know better."

Li Hanming gritted his teeth.

"Yes, I heard from classmates you're very capable and only handle big deals. But I find your self-righteous attitude so annoying.

To you it may just be a performance but to her it's something she earned through her own hard work. She has to treasure every opportunity, do you know how hard it is to get recognized by large-scale events like this?

Do you know how difficult her road here has been? Do you know how hard it was living penniless while being scolded? Do you think it feels good being sabotaged but having to act like nothing happened?!

Do you think you're depriving her of an opportunity? Why don't you consider that you are ruining her prospects!"

"Little Han, it's not that bad. And...it's not entirely her fault either."

Qin Wei gently said to him. Her mind had gone blank from the pain earlier but was clear again now that she thought it over. While it was Song Huan who caused this, she wasn't completely blameless herself.

She had let her temper get the better of her wanting to one up someone like Song Huan. Who could've expected Song Huan to react even faster than she anticipated.

Even in that moment she could sense that Song Huan had acted on instinct. And to be honest, Song Huan hadn't used much force either, she had just been unlucky to dislocate her arm from a simple turn (ToT)>

The doctor stood up after securing her arm properly. His expression wasn't too good. Looks like it still hurts a lot.

"Sis Wei..."

Li Hanming realized he hadn't controlled his emotions. He shouldn't have been like this. Whenever it concerned her he'd always forget about managing his feelings...

"Li Yao should have arrived. You've met him before, go inform him of the arrangements you just mentioned. I'll tidy up in the dorm then head over immediately."

Although Qin Wei spoke softly, Li Hanming heard everything clearly. He nodded silently then hurriedly wiped his tears before jogging downstairs.

"Was it worth it?"

Although yelled at by Li Hanming, Song Huan's emotions remained unaffected without even an "I didn't mean it" utterance.

At the special forces base for so many years, being part of the most specialized troop executing missions and killing without batting an eye or quickening pulse, not to mention the anger of a child.

"There are just some people you don't want to disappoint..."

As Qin Wei slowly walked towards the door, she still didn't forget to turn back and say to Song Huan:

"I did suddenly pull you. Self defense is understandable but you went overboard. I have to consult the lawyers if your actions count as excessive self defense.

If so, medical fees, nutrition fees, emotional damages, loss of wages etc you won't escape any of it. Not only that I will also lodge a formal complaint against you. I want you discharged early to roll out of here with your luggage!"

"Impressive that you still have the energy to scold people badly injured. Such temper, incredible."

The doctor input her medical record while snarking.

"It's my fault, my fault, my fault," she pulled my arm, and I don't know how... forget it, it's my mistake, Captain Yang, don't hold it against a little girl."

Song Huan also breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the military doctor, "Speaking of which, Captain Yang, how come you're here? Have you been demoted in the few days I was away?"

"You girl, your mouth is too nasty. The kids in your team have nasty mouths too, no wonder the male soldiers I introduce to you keep their distance...got sidetracked...

I'm here to talk to you about something, and to see an old war buddy at the same time. Who would've thought he got the runs today and made me fill in for him for half a day..."

He took off his mask and shook his head,

"My skills are rusty. It took so much effort just to relocate this. You're asking for trouble, using all your skills on ordinary people? Just you wait to get punished when you're back with your team!"
