“Harvey! Harvey, are you there?”

Parker carried Bai Qingqing and rushed to a wooden house at the edge of the village. A young man walked out upon hearing Parker’s shouts. He looked smaller than the rest of the beastmen in the tribe, but he was still relatively muscular by modern standards. He had no tattoos on his face and had a more refined and calm aura about him.

“What’s the rush?” Harvey stood at the door and glanced at Parker. His eyes then locked onto the female in Parker’s arms. “Is this female injured? Bring her inside right away.”

Parker carried Bai Qingqing into the house without another word. The doctor’s house was much larger compared to those of the other beastmen. There were stone cups of various sizes all over the house, and the air was filled with the faint smell of medicine.

Bai Qingqing wrinkled her nose upon noticing the faint smell of the kitchen. This caused some of the dried mud on her face to fall off.

Harvey glanced at Bai Qingqing’s face and asked, “Does she have facial injuries? Did you apply mud on her face because she got stung by a bee?”

“No. Look at her ankle.” Parker helped Bai Qingqing to sit on the ground, then lifted her leg up and showed it to Harvey.

Harvey bent down and looked at her ankle. He frowned and replied, “It’s a sprain. I’ll help her improve the blood circulation around her ankle first.”

Although Parker was worried, he didn’t forget to comfort Bai Qingqing. He held Bai Qingqing’s mud-covered face and said, “Don’t worry. Harvey studied medicine in the City of Beastmen. You’ll feel better in no time.”

“Oh.” Bai Qingqing wasn’t too fussed, to begin with. She usually didn’t care if she sprained her ankle and would be too embarrassed to excuse herself from morning runs. But since she was already here, it wouldn’t hurt to get it treated.

“Hm?” Harvey suddenly exclaimed. He pulled at Bai Qingqing’s shoelaces and asked, “What’s this? I’m going to massage your ankle for you. Can I take this off?”

Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but laugh at Harvey’s reaction. She smiled and bent down to take off her shoe. “Of course you can.”
