If she took out her phone, would the school doctor beat her?

Alina silently picked up the phone on the table and looked at the school doctor, "I don't remember the number of our head teacher..."

The school doctor opened a drawer, took out a folder and threw it to her. "There are the phone numbers of all the head teachers. Find it yourself."

Alina was speechless. "Thank you."

After the call, Mr. Su soon came over. As soon as he came in, he asked anxiously, "How is Leo? Is it serious?"

The doctor answered calmly, "The temperature has dropped a lot. It's nothing serious for the time being."

Mr. Su was relieved and said, "That's good. That's good." He turned to Alina and said, "You sent him here, right? Thank you so much!"

"That's all right. We're classmates. It's my pleasure." With a modest smile, Alina said, "Sir, now that you are here, I'll go back to the classroom."

Mr. Su replied briskly, "Okay. It's not long before the class begins. You can go back now."

"Goodbye, Mr. Su. Goodbye, doctor." Alina waved her hand and ran away as fast as she could under the doctor's meaningful gaze.

After she ran out of the infirmary and turned a corner, Alina walked to the teaching building.

To be honest, she felt a little guilty when she left. After all, she had promised him that she would not leave.

But maybe Leo said that just because he was unconscious. Maybe he wouldn't remember after the fever.

This kind of self-consolation instantly dispelled the psychological burden on her, and made her steps much more relaxed.

As soon as she returned to the classroom, Rose asked after her, "Where did you go? Why do you come back so late? Have you had lunch? The buns are cold!" As she spoke, she handed the buns to Alina.

"The teacher asked me to go out for something." Alina took the buns and said thanks to her with a smile. Then she sat down.

She ate the bun at once.

She was so hungry that she finished the two buns in a few bites.

She choked because she had eaten too fast. She rolled her eyes and finally swallowed it. After eating, Alina went on to review.

When the bell rang, the students found that Leo's seat was empty.

When the newspaper was read, there would be students from the student union to check the number of students and discipline. If one of them was absent, the score of the class would be deducted.

The monitor asked loudly, "Who knows where Leo is? Why hasn't he come to the classroom yet?"

But no one had an idea. He was still in the classroom at noon.

At this moment, Alina suddenly said, "Leo is sick. Mr. Su is in the infirmary with him."

The classroom was silent for a second.

"Why didn't he ask for leave? At least tell me!" The monitor nagged as she lowered her head and quickly wrote the note.

As soon as the inspectors came, the monitor rushed out and showed the note to them.

During the break, Leo's misty eyes flashed through Alina's mind. She wondered if his fever had gone. The infusion should be done?

Such worries just flashed by quickly and were quickly suppressed by various questions.

After school, Alina suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten Leo.

He didn't seem to come back to the classroom the whole afternoon, nor did she see Mr. Su. Was he still in the infirmary?

Alina went to the infirmary again with her schoolbag, feeling guilty.

The school doctor was still there, but Leo was gone.

"Little girl, are you here to see your boyfriend? He has been sent home by your head teacher."

The doctor answered before Alina asked. "That boy was so disappointed that he didn't see you when he woke up. Why are you here so late?"

Alina was really afraid of the school doctor. She said that they were not boyfriend and girlfriend. Why didn't he understand?

"Thank you, doctor. I see. Bye." She'd better never see him again!

On her way back, Alina took out her phone and called the head teacher.

"Hello, who's that?"

Although Alaina had saved the phone number of the head teacher, she never called. So the head teacher didn't have her number on his phone.

"Hello, Mr. Su. It's Alaina."

"Oh, it's you. What's the matter?"

"Nothing. I just want to know how Leo is. Is he all right? "

"His fever has gone. I've sent him to his home. Don't worry. He's fine."

"I see. Goodbye, Mr. Su."

Now, she was completely relieved. With the care of his family, Leo should be fine.

When she came home, Sheffield hadn't come back, and Eric and Wendy were not at home either. After greeting Peter, Alina went straight to the bedroom.

Study! Study! Study! The most important thing for her now was to study.

She had wasted more than an hour in the noon because of Leo, and she had to make it up in the evening.

Alina didn't know when Sheffield came back. It was not until Peter called her down to dinner that she recovered herself from the book.

Eric and Wendy didn't come back. Only Alina and Sheffield were having the dinner.

At the dining table, Alina smiled at Sheffield, but he ignored her; she talked to him but he didn't respond; she gave him some food, he put it aside; she gave him more soup, he refused to drink.

The smile on Alina's face gradually froze and disappeared. What was wrong with him?

Eat or not? Eat or not? Eat or not? She really wanted to pry his mouth open and put food in his mouth.

"I'm full." Then, Sheffield went upstairs with a cold face.

Alina wiped her mouth, and hurriedly got up to keep up with him.

Sheffield wanted to get rid of her. But their rooms were on the same way.

Seeing Sheffield opening the door, Alina rushed forward to block the door with her foot.

"What are you doing? Take off your foot!" Sheffield said coldly.

Alina complained, "At least we're friends. Don't you feel guilty about treating me like this?"

"Who is your friend? Go away!"

"You didn't say that when you ate my meatballs!"

Sheffield's expression changed. He shouted impatiently, "What on earth do you want? Do you want me to shit it out and give it back to you?"

This time, Alina's face changed. She was shocked with her eyes wide open. She didn't expect that he could say such disgusting things!

"Well, keep it for yourself. Good night."
