When the military dogs started to bite Instructor Li, the medicine was sprinkled over the top of their heads.

  Instructor Li desperately blew the whistle at them and his eyes turned red from anxiousness and cold sweat trickled down.

  Just then, the rioting dogs finally calmed down.

  They acted as if they had just recovered from a trance and even looked at each other. They had whined for quite some time before they looked towards Instructor Li with an innocent gaze.

  Instructor Li raised his hand and wiped away the cold sweat that had trickled down. He smelled the scent of medicine in the air and subconsciously looked at Zi Yi who was still on the railings.

  Zi Yi pointed at them and said, “Instructor Li, please check to see if there are any other problems with them first?”


  Instructor Li was also in a hurry. After he heard what she had said, he swiftly gave them a check.

  He did not manage to identify anything on the surface. He stroked one of the military dog’s heads, which had currently rubbed its head against his trousers and said, “Don’t worry. The higher-ups will be sending a doctor to check on you guys.”


  After that, he said to the group. “Everyone, sit.”


  All the military dogs immediately heeded his commands and sat down.

  Only then did Instructor Li speak to Zi Yi. “Student Zi, you can get down now.”


  Yet, Zi Yi furrowed her brows. She had climbed up in a hurry and not to mention there was a cut on her palms, one of her sleeves was hooked on the barb. She could not move around at all.

  Moreover, Instructor Li was present and she could not possibly ask Shadow for help.

  Zi Yi thought for a moment and decided to save herself.

  She turned around and pulled on the sleeve that got caught on the barb.

  At the same time, several cars drove past from a distance. After the car parked at the main gates, several individuals with strong auras swiftly alighted. It was evident that they were the higher-ups that Instructor Li mentioned. There was also another group of doctors that alighted from the car at the back.

  After they had alighted, they strode over in large steps.

  Zi Yi subconsciously turned her head in that direction to take a look.

  However, she did not expect for her sleeve hanging on the barb to get torn. Her hand that grabbed onto the iron railing had trembled for a second and loosened. The next second, she was headed for the ground.

  “Uk–…”


  “Student Zi, be careful!”


  Everyone got frightened at the sight of Zi Yi who was about to fall down.

  Yet, a figure quickly dashed over at that moment. His knees bent down the second before Zi Yi fell to the ground and grabbed onto her firmly.

  Zi Yi glanced at the person who caught her. It was an unfamiliar face, but his pair of eyes were ones that she had been the most familiar with.

  Zi Yi opened her mouth with the intention to call out his name.

  The man put her on the ground and asked, “Are you alright?”


  Zi Yi stared at his face and shook her head.

  The man saw her injured hand and turned to speak to the group of people who made their way over. “Her hand is injured. It needs to be taken care of.”


  One of the men who appeared to be the leader nodded. “You, go and take care of her wound.”


  Immediately after, he led the group of people towards Instructor Li.

  Among the group of people, a few of them were higher-ups and there were also several doctors.

  They did a swift examination for the military dogs.

  Zi Yi looked at the man before her and spoke in a volume only the two of them could hear. “Ah Jing?”


  Lu Jingye nodded at her in an unnoticeable way. His voice was filled with undisguised concern and heartache. “Show me your injured hand.”


  Zi Yi stretched out her hand. There was a cut across her palms and it had supposedly stopped bleeding. However, when she opened her palm, the wound was reopened and it started to bleed again.

  Lu Jingye’s eyes slightly dimmed and he said, “Wait a moment, I’ll go and get you some medicine.”


  He turned around after he said that and quickly headed towards one of the cars parked outside.

  Zi Yi watched Lu Jingye who departed quickly and made his way back just as quickly as before. The corner of her lips could not help but curl up. She honestly very much wanted to ask why he came here. In the end, she held herself back from asking.

  Lu Jingye carefully applied medicine to her wound and bandaged it. They did not converse at all in that period of time.

  After he was done with taking care of her wound, he looked up and said to her, “I’m here to see you.”


  With just a single sentence from him, Zi Yi could identify how much he had longed for her.

  Due to the excessive longing, he had deliberately used a disguise to transform into another person’s appearance, just to come over and take a look at her.

  “I’ll come to see you again when everyone leaves.”


  Zi Yi’s lips slightly curled up. The moment he took back his hands, she held onto them for a moment.

  Just then, Lu Jingye spoke in a normal volume. “Your wound is not considered too deep. But you should not touch water in the following days.”


  Zi Yi heard the sound of footsteps from behind her and nodded her head as she turned around.

  The person who walked over was Doctor Zhang.

  Doctor Zhang asked Lu Jingye, “Doctor Chen, have you taken care of Student Zi’s wounds?”


  “Yes.”


  Lu Jingye took the leftover medicine and bandages after that and turned around as he headed towards the car parked outside.

  Doctor Zhang did not doubt him at all. She walked over and glanced at Zi Yi’s bandaged hand and asked in concern, “Student Zi, hopefully, those military dogs did not frighten you?”


  Zi Yi originally planned to shake her head in disagreement but she suddenly changed her mind and nodded. “They frightened me.”


  “Student Zi, do you know exactly what happened? Why did those military dogs suddenly turn aggressive?”


  “I don’t know.”


  Zi Yi looked up at the group of people who were currently in a conversation and said to Doctor Zhang, “Doctor Zhang, we should make our way over too.”


  Doctor Zhang nodded and both of them walked over there.

  At that moment, Instructor Li was explaining the whole process of the sudden aggressive behavior of the military dogs.

  “At that time, I heard something amiss and so, I went to check on the place they were resting at. I did not expect them to break through the fence and run out. They kept barking at the sight of me and wanted to dash outside. I nearly could not stop them at that time.”


  He then looked at Zi Yi who made her way over and added, “Fortunately, Student Zi distracted them away and prevented them from dashing into our living accommodations.”


  Everyone looked towards Zi Yi.

  Zi Yi spoke up with a calm expression. “In order to attract them and prevent them from running amok, I ran for nearly ten minutes. In the end, my stamina and legs could not take it and so, I climbed up the railing.”


  Even though the situation she encountered back then seemed to be very serious, when everyone imagined the scene, they could not help but feel like laughing.

  But fortunately, everyone had endured.

  One of the middle-aged higher-ups said to her, “Student Zi, you’ve worked hard.”


  Just then, several doctors made their way over after they were done with the examination. One of them said, “They should have consumed something by mistake earlier, which led to their aggressive behavior. However, what they ate by mistake had been detoxified afterwards.”


  One of the middle-aged higher-ups asked in a stern voice. “Who was responsible for bringing their food?”


  “It’s me and my classmate.” Zi Yi recounted the whole process of when she went to collect the dog food.

  Doctor Zhang testified for her.

  The middle-aged man remained silent for a period of time before he said to another person, “Go and check at once!”


  “Yes!”


  After the person left, the middle-aged man asked again, “Who gave them the antidote?”


  Instructor Li looked puzzled. “I don’t know either. When Little Zi climbed up the railing, they dashed towards my direction when I came closer. I didn’t expect to smell a medicine scent in the air when I was about to get close to them. Following that, all of them seemed to have woken up.”


  Instructor Li’s explanation caused the higher-ups to look at each other, as if they had thought of something. They then said to Instructor Li, “Since the military dogs have calmed down, wait for the doctors to examine their living areas first. You can take them elsewhere to take a rest.”


  “Yes!” Instructor Li whistled at the military dogs and led them away.

  The middle-aged man looked at Zi Yi while his eyes sized her up. A few seconds later, he said, “Student Zi, go and take a rest first. Thank you for your hard work tonight. If your hand hurts tomorrow, take a day off.”


  Zi Yi nodded and turned to walk inside.
