Zhi Ling Ling who already has started eating notice Xiao Yun hand stopped and also stop her chopsticks. Asking softly with her timid tone, "X-Xiao Yun, are you alright?"
Xiao Yun smiled softly and nod, "Yes, it's just I forgot my water bottle in the class. "
With Xue Xiu Yong's situation upstairs in her classroom, Xiao Yun rejected her idea of going upstairs and decided to buy another water in the cafeteria.
Nie An who has just arrived after buying her lunch put down her plate and asked Xiao Yun who was about to walk away from the table. "Where are you going?"
Xiao Yun closes her lunch box before striding off to the stall. "Buying a drink."
"Mn, okay! Ah-! Be careful, for some reason, there's a lot of students crowding the stall."
Xiao Yun took Nie An's words lightly and answered. "Mn- Okay!"
Because of the range between Xiao Yun's table and the stall was near, it took her less than a few minutes to arrive at the stall. Seeing the crowds of students in front of the stall, like an endless tail of a snake, Xiao Yun stood tip-toeing to see the condition in front of the stall.
'How weird...' Xiao Yun steps down from her toes and rub her chin.
For some reason, the crowds were not lining up in front of the food stall rather on something else and blocked the food stall.
Xiao Yun shrugged her shoulder thinking that it was had nothing to do with her. Squeezing herself nimbly to enter the core of the crowds, Xiao Yun knitted her brows from how tight and suffocating the crowds was.
Finally arrived in front of the stall after drifting from the waves of the crowds, Xiao Yun huffed heavily in front of the stall.
The stall keeper and old woman in her 50s worriedly asked Xiao Yun after noticing her pale face from lack of oxygen. "Young lady, are you alright?"
Xiao Yun who was still unable to speak raises her hand and spread her palm wide. "W-W-Wait... Let me take a breath."
The stall keeper eyes pitifully look toward the exasperated Xiao Yun and gave a long sigh. She cupped her chin and helplessly shook her head toward the sea of students who crowded in front of the stall.

"Aiya! What happened with this sea of people here? Not buying anything but crowding here like buying some hot potato in winter-" The stall keeper bitterly complaint.
Xiao Yun waves her hand toward her face. "So they're not here to buy lunch?" -'As I thought they are not lining to buy lunch... But then, why are they crowding here?'
"No, anyway young lady, you look so pale. Here take this." The stall keeper gave two water bottles as she speaks.
"This ...?" Xiao Yun raises one of the water bottles in confusion.
"Aiya~! Just take it, young lady. You look very dehydrated, drink more water!" The stall keeper kindly waves her hand telling Xiao Yun to receive her kind offer.
Xiao Yun smiles softly and nodded. "Thank you very much. Ah, and can I have those meat buns?"
From a while ago, the smell of the freshly steamed meat buns had been tempting her. Even though she has her lunch box, it would never hurt to have more food~
The stall keeper nodded. "How many, young lady?"
"Er..." Xiao Yun thought for a moment before giving an answer, "Seven! All seven of them!"
"Alright!" The stall keeper hurriedly packed the seven meat buns into a brown paper bag before passing it toward Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun thanked the stall keeper and gave the money. "Thank you." Xiao Yun politely spoke.
The stall keeper nodded and looked toward Xiao Yun as she leaves and proudly expresses her fondness to the girl she had just meet. 'That young lady is very beautiful! But... These students... Just what they're here for...? They're obstructing my business!'
On the other hand, Xiao Yun took a deep breath before once again enter the sea of people. While being pushed here in there, Xiao Yun grateful thank her body for being able to keep going even after all of this.
Thank God she wasn't claustrophobic... Or else, she would have to crouch down on the floor because of lightheadedness and dizziness.
This was all because of that stupid puppy! She should've just knocked his head into some senses.
Xiao Yun stepped her legs forward, evading the flow of the students that went the opposite ways of her. The crowds suddenly grew noisier with some loud squealings and once again, Xiao Yun's slender body was pushed off guard to the back.

Xiao Yun gritted her teeth and pushed herself forward guarding herself with her hand from the force. Finally stepping out of the crowds, Xiao Yun exhaled a long breath and wiped her sweats.
As her arm softly went down from her forehead, Xiao Yun's black eyes caught a glimpse of a person who fell down from the ground harshly.
His face was extremely pale and drenched with cold sweats. While clutching to his chest, the young man frowned and cough as he tries to get up once again.
Before he could lean his arm to steady his view, the groups of students who were pushed backward started to stumble forward and collapse to each other. Resulting in an avalanche that would befall on the sick young man.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun's body moved before her mind could think. Her feet nimbly dodge the crowd's legs and pull the young man's hand. Saving him from his upcoming mishap.
Swiftly pulling the young man's body to the savest spot, Xiao Yun observes the young man's breathing for a moment.
'This boy... Is he sick? His breathing seems off... ' Xiao Yun worriedly asked. "Are you alright?"
The young man clutches to his chest tightly, unable to answer or take a breath. Coughing harshly with glazing eyes as if he was lacking oxygen.
Xiao Yun places her palm toward the man's forehead and felt the cold sweat drenching her palm. 'This is...Hyperventilation?'.
Xiao Yun pat the boy's back gently to ease his mind first. "Calm down, take slow breaths. Inhale... Exhale... Inhale... exhale." She continued to comfort the boy carefully while scanning the cafeteria with her sharp eyes.
Xiao Yun looked toward her side and found a paper bag on the table. Quickly, she reached her hand promptly to the bag and place it before the young man's crimson lips. "Take a breathe here."
The young man furrowed his brows and slowly breathe in from the paper bag. Seeing his expression that slowly eases, Xiao Yun gave a relieved sigh.
Thank God in the past she had seen her cousin hyperventilating and know what steps she needed to do. Although it's rare if hyperventilating wasn't treated fast enough, the symptoms can even lead to death.
The young man holds his head with a pained expression. "I-It's getting better... T-Thank you..."
"Ah..." Xiao Yun took out one of the water bottles she receives from the stall keeper and handed it out toward the young man.
The young man couldn't clearly see the bottle out of his blurred vision and squinted his eyes before once again patting his chest.
Xiao Yun reached out her hand and put the bottle gently on his palm. When the young man finally got a hold of it, she retracted her hand and added. "Here, take a drink first and loosen your tie. That would make you better. If you still feel hard to breathe, go to the school's garden."
Xiao Yun stood up from her crouching position and before she could say anything else, groups of girls walked in front of her and worriedly gathered in front of the young boy calling his name frantically.
"Oh my God!! Zhuang Han Wu? Are you alright?"
"Oh no!! Someone, please help us bring him to the school's infirmary!!"
"Help!! Help!! Someone collapsed!!"
Pushing Xiao Yun away from the young boy, the crowds quickly brought Zhuang Han Wu to the infirmary.
Xiao Yun wanted to warn the crowds not to surround the boy as he needed more space for himself for a few minutes. However, after watching the boy safely transported to the infirmary, Xiao Yun shrugged her shoulder and left without a word.
Zhuang Han Wu who was still light-headed from the attack narrowed his blurred eyes toward the figure of Xiao Yun that slowly disappear to the crowd.
He holds the hand of the girl beside him and asked before disappearing into the darkness. "Who was that-?"
After the hectic crowds, Xiao Yun arrived at her table and quickly opened the cap of the water bottle before gulping down a mouthful of water while fanning her warm face with her palm.
Noticing Xiao Yun's flushed face, Nie An covered her mouth in the middle of eating before asking. "What happened Xiao Yun, are you alright?"
Xiao Yun., "Yes, it's just- as you said, there's a lot of people there. I was nearly squashed to death."
