376 Chapter 376. Luo Fei’s Questioning
Of course, this was no longer a strange thing to Zhuang Jie. It was a sad and tragic thing!
Fortunately, the place where they trained today was not far from the camp. Luo Fei ran with Zhuang Jie in his arms. His hands were already weak and numb when he put Zhuang Jie on the stretcher bed.
Even a strong man like Luo Fei, who trained daily, could not carry such a living person. After coming down from the mountain, he did not have any reaction. He was mighty, but he wasn’t some superhuman.
As he watched the two doctors carry Zhuang Jie into the tent, Luo Fei heaved an imperceptible sigh of relief. He looked at the blood stains on his chest and clothes, as well as Ye Xin’s hands that were covered in blood, and his heart sank.
He turned around and sat on the chair in front of the tent. He lowered his head and asked in a low voice, “Haven’t you always been good friends with Zhuang Jie? Why didn’t you reach out to help her when she fell? If you had just reached out to pull her, she wouldn’t have fallen so hard and might not have suffered such a serious injury!”
As Luo Fei spoke, he looked at Ye Xin and asked with a puzzled expression, “Even if you’re not friends, you should be classmates, right? After so many days of sharing joys and sorrows, can’t you feel a little compassion? Or perhaps, you don’t even have a heart?”
Ye Xin seemed to have been triggered by the confusion and surprise on Luo Fei’s face. She retorted nervously, “I didn’t react in time. I didn’t mean not to save her! Squad monitor, why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t cause her to fall! Zhuang Jie’s serious injury shouldn’t have anything to do with me, okay?”
It had to be said that Ye Xin’s reaction was swift. She quickly found a flaw that could refute Luo Fei’s accusations and loudly tried to prove her innocence.
Luo Fei looked at Ye Xin with a complicated expression. His face was filled with gloominess and disappointment. He didn’t say a word and just kept looking at her.
When Ye Xin saw that Luo Fei was unmoved by her explanation, she couldn’t help but feel slightly anxious. She explained, “The situation was so urgent at that time. It’s normal for me not to react in time. I’m just a student, not a soldier or a doctor. I should have the right to be afraid, right? What right do you have to ask me to help Zhuang Jie so quickly? This has nothing to do with me. I didn’t harm Zhuang Jie!”
Luo Fei laughed slowly when he heard that. There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. “You’re good with words. You’re pretty good at it. Of course, you have the right to be afraid. I didn’t say that you can’t be afraid. I’m just a little curious. Ask yourself, was it because you were afraid that you couldn’t react in time that you took that step back?”
As he spoke, he chuckled softly. “You said you’re terrified. What are you afraid of? Did Zhuang Jie have a knife or a thorn on her body during training? The two of you have no grudges and are even friends. Why would you say such strange and urgent words? Are you afraid of your friends?
I can’t understand why you’re trying to defend yourself like this and even subconsciously absolve yourself. Anyone who’s a little more normal wouldn’t do something like this, indifferent and cold! When you took that one step back, it was already against the conscience of human beings. Do you know that?”
Ye Xin gulped. Just as she was about to say something, she immediately realized she couldn’t refute him.
Luo Fei was right. She was not afraid at that time, nor did she not react in time. She deliberately did not reach out to save Zhuang Jie. She hated that stupid person and wanted to see her ridiculous appearance when she fell!
However, she did not expect Zhuang Jie to fall so badly that even the squad monitor was starting to feel indignant on her behalf. He was even beginning to doubt her.
As Luo Fei spoke, he realized he had been too excited. He took a deep breath and frowned as he looked at Ye Xin. He sighed in disappointment and resolve.
