Chapter 107: Three Days of Isolation Bliss

  Finally made it to the end of the roll, Xia Xi Xi trudged back to the classroom with heavy footsteps, and before she even entered the door, Sun Qingyuan stopped her: "Xia Xi Xi, why is your face so red? Are you running a fever?"

  His face showed a hint of worry, but his tone didn't reveal any concern. XiXi replied in a low voice, "I'm not feeling well, I'll just put down my things and head to the infirmary."

  "Put the things at the door, don't bring a fever into the classroom, there are so many people in the class, what if the flu spreads, who will take this responsibility?" Sun Qingyuan subconsciously took two steps back, his evasive action was too obvious, as if the other person was the source of the disease.

  Xia Xi originally was surprised by the class teacher's meticulous observation, and at a glance, she discovered her abnormality. However, what followed was not consolation but being blocked outside the classroom, without even a single symbolic sentence of concern. The grievances in her heart suddenly rose up.

  It's just a flu, not some kind of highly contagious disease. Why treat her like the plague? It's not like she wanted to catch a cold. She thought indignantly, tossing her book at the classroom door and heading in the direction of the infirmary.

  Zeng Yu happened to be coming in the opposite direction, and seeing her gloomy expression, she stopped and asked: "Where are you going?"

  "Some people have gone to the infirmary with a fever." Xi Xi covered her mouth, avoiding letting her breath come into contact with Zeng Yu. Although she was dissatisfied with Sun Qingyuan not allowing her to enter the classroom, in her heart, she understood that at this critical moment when the flu was raging on, no one could avoid the virus.

  Once you have a fever, you will be isolated and sent home until the fever is gone and you are cured. The high school curriculum is already tight, and with the intense competition in the key class, no one wants to miss this flu season.

  "I'll go with you." Zeng Yu put the backpack that was originally in his hand on his shoulder and reached out to hold Xi Xi's arm.

  "It's okay, I don't need it."

  "No way!" Xia Xi and Sun Qingyuan exclaimed in unison.

  "Xia Xi, you can go by yourself. Zeng Yu, return to the classroom. I have something else to say later. The flu situation in our class must be strictly controlled and prevented. Do you think Type A influenza is a joke? Do you know how many cases there are nationwide now?" Sun Qingyuan said sternly.

  Zeng Yu was intimidated by Sun Qingyuan's aura and obediently returned to the classroom. As he turned around, he secretly rolled his eyes at Xi Xi, pouting his mouth and showing a helpless expression.

  Although Sun Qingyuan's attitude was somewhat inhumane, his measures to prevent and control the flu were flawless, and Xi Xi also knew that she shouldn't have emotional reactions to her class teacher's handling of the situation.

  But getting sick always makes people extra sensitive and vulnerable, a few inhumane words can make Xia Xi feel hurt at this time, she dragged her heavy footsteps, step by step towards the medical room, her brain was dizzy and confused, but the chilling feeling made her fever even more unbearable.

  The sunlight is vast and endless, but she can't feel even a hint of brightness. The kind of desolation that comes from being abandoned by the whole world, with no way out, makes her so sad that she's almost suffocating.

  The doctor in the clinic was still the same young doctor as last time. Xi Xi greeted him and thought to herself: She, who had always been strong and healthy, had become a frequent visitor to the clinic this semester, and was almost familiar with the doctor.

  Her last reaction to getting stitches was too intense, it's hard to be forgotten, the doctor on duty obviously still remembered her, with a hint of familiarity in his tone: "What's wrong again?"

  This "again" word is really frustrating for Xi Xi, from a young age she rarely took medicine, and it's only been a month since school started, from external injuries to internal ones, they've all happened.

  "It's a fever." XiXi said in a low and depressed tone.

  The doctor on duty listened to her symptoms and smiled. He wore a blue medical mask, with his eyebrows and eyes curved upwards: "Take your temperature, if it's over 37.5 degrees, don't bother checking, just let your parents take you home for isolation. You're not simple, huh? You can even get such a fashionable disease."

  "Isn't it said that doctors have a benevolent heart? How can you be so cruel?" Xi Xi was infuriated by his few words, which were unrelated to the matter at hand, and protested in a hoarse voice. Where did this quack doctor come from? Not only does he not treat patients, but he also mocks them. It seems that not only are the teachers' teams overflowing with talent, but even the medical staff is producing weirdos.

  The young doctor laughed even more happily, handing the thermometer that had finished detoxifying to XiXi, and teasingly said: "I'm not gloating over your misfortune, you guys just exercise too little, have poor physical fitness, and suddenly come down with an infectious disease, one after another."

  "Who says it's infectious? I just have a common cold, not that A flu!" Xi Xi let out a weak hum of protest.

  "Alright, now 80% of the colds are variants of H1N1, just that the virus has weakened and the symptoms have alleviated. You're lucky, you might be among the last batch of people to be isolated and sent home."

  "I'm really lucky." XiXi gritted her teeth, she didn't want such good luck. This semester's homework was much harder than last semester's, and it was already a bit of a struggle. If she were to be isolated at home for a few more days, the difference would be huge.

  These days, due to the influenza A, there are many people coming and going in the infirmary. On the same long bench, just for taking temperature, two people sat down, Xi Xi sat next to a tall boy.

  He overheard the doctor's conversation and couldn't help but interrupt: "It's true, being isolated for three days is a blessing. These few days haven't been sick, but many people want to be isolated and go home. Others can't even get an appointment, but you managed to get one right away. I look at your face and it looks like you have good fortune."

  What a joke, getting the flu is such an unlucky thing, and it's actually related to physiognomy and good fortune, where did this come from, it's like a living treasure, can go tell jokes about it.

  "Classmate, which class are you from? You look so delicate and refined, with a unique temperament, I bet you're a liberal arts major's soft girl?" The boy continued to chat up, his round doll-like face breaking into a smile that left two dimples, looking quite festive.

  "No." Xi Xi was feeling unwell due to a fever and really didn't have the mood to bother with him, so she simply replied with two words.

  "Wow, I'm shocked! There's actually such a beautiful girl in the science class!" The boy exclaimed exaggeratedly.

  "Song Yue, if you try to flirt with my girlfriend again, next time I'll directly hit your face with a basketball!" A familiar voice came from the doorway, Chen Yan walked in with big strides, his expression was somewhat hasty, but his tone remained calm and indifferent.

  The hem of the white shirt fluttered in the wind, like a flock of white doves. His handsome face had sharp contours, and his robust shoulders carried Xia Xi's backpack. He appeared in her line of sight, just like a hero from ancient Greek mythology, surrounded by an aura of light.

  Chen Yan's gaze softened on Xi Xi for a moment, then turned sharp towards Song Yue: "You've used all your little cleverness to flirt with girls, if you'd devoted just a bit of it to basketball, you wouldn't be stuck as a substitute player on the school team."
