Last Sentence

"Did you just slap me?" Xia Yinghan felt like crying.2

She stared at Xue Feihan with her watery eyes, as tears started to drip down, but she did not move her eyes away.

She wanted nothing but an apology. As long as Xue Feihan told her that he was acting too recklessly and that it was his fault, she could forgive him for what he had done, and she could be relieved.

She adored Xue Feihan, and she was aware of this feeling since she was little.

She knew that Xue Feihan did not like her back, but at least, she was his Junior Sister! It was not her fault for what happened today. She was just concerned that he was going to take the blame for Huang Xuan. Xue Feihan was also a doctor, and he should not have some bad rumor coming to him.

Xue Feihan looked at Xia Yinghan with a frown.

He had gained back rationality, but he still had no expression of regret on his face. He was looking at Xia Yinghan with a look of blame.

"You should not have done that." Xue Feihan said with determination. "You have ruined Huang Xuan's respect for you."

He shook his head.

He looked at Xia Yinghan as if he were talking with a very total stranger.

Huang Xuan was the youngest among the three. She could be reckless, but she was not ruthless. Yinghan should know about this.

Huang Xuan needed respect and approval from Yinghan. So why was she not aware of this point at all? Why was she hurting Huang Xuan in this way?

Xue Feihan kept shaking his head. He was totally disappointed in Xia Yinghan.

"It was her!"

"No, it wasn't!" Xue Feihan said with determination.

Then came the sound of door knocking.

It was The Dean.

The Dean sighed at the sight of them three, saying nothing.

Instead, he walked directly to Huang Xuan.

"Invasion is happening at the border, and there is a battle going on. We have many wounded soldiers. and most of the doctors in the army are just ordinary doctors. We need some imperial doctors and other doctors there right now, Huang Xuan, are you willing to be at Jiayu Pass, the border?" the Dean asked.

Before she answered the question…

The Dean was still concerned about his students, so he added. "If you are not willing to be in the military, The Empress Dowager is asking you to be the female doctor in the court, serving her at Cining Palace, you can make a choice."

The Dean had a very complicated feeling in his heart.

Huang Xuan was reckless, but she was a skillful doctor. If she was able to save a lot of soldiers, he would very much like her to be there, but he was feeling unwilling to let her go.

Life in the military was different from that in the capital. The life there was difficult and all were men. Huang Xuan was a female doctor after all.

"Xuan, just go to the court!" Xue Feihan said anxiously, "Isn't that always your wish? Now is your chance! The Empress Dowager hasn't been feeling well, but she will definitely get better with your help."

Huang Xuan shook her head.

She did have the wish of being in the court, but now she had lost the wish.

Jiayu Pass was a great choice.

She looked up at the Dean. "I will join the army."

The Dean was surprised too. Huang Xuan might be a reckless girl with many drawbacks, but she was, after all, his student!

"You are already packed, so come with me. The army is leaving soon." The Dean said with a gratified tone.

Huang Xuan nodded, then she grabbed her luggage.

As she passed Xia Yinghan, she paused. "Senior Sister…."
