Chapter 35 Gu Nancheng Woke up?

Fang Tong remembered clearly that she didn’t apply any antibiotic ointment before she went to bed. While she was asleep, she vaguely felt that someone was applying ointment on her. Was that reality and not a dream?

But other than her in the room…

Fang Tong wouldn’t believe it when she saw Gu Nancheng lying motionless beside her.

She quickly got out of bed and checked the doorknob on the bedroom door. The door was locked from the inside, which meant that no one else had come in.

She returned to the bedside and stared at Gu Nancheng for a long time under the dim light. Then, she suddenly climbed into bed and pinched his thigh.

The person lying in bed did not feel anything and did not even frown. If he was a normal, conscious person, he would not be reactionless.

Fang Tong was not convinced. She lifted Gu Nancheng’s foot and scratched the sole, but he still did not respond.

Could she have guessed wrong? But the ointment on her back was solid evidence!

Fang Tong looked around again. Could there be something “dirty” in the room?

Thud!”

The window to the balcony was blown open. The photo frame on the bedside table was toppled by the wind, scaring Fang Tong. She quickly grabbed the blanket tightly, buried her head in the blanket, and closed her eyes to sleep.

The room was peaceful again after a long while. The man who had been motionless twitched the corners of his mouth, and then reverted.

First, she was injured, then she woke up in the middle of the night because of the cold. And then she got a fright. Fang Tong fell ill the next day. She was dizzy, and her nose was stuffy. She was pale when she went downstairs to eat.

Bai Ping’s heart ached. “What’s wrong? Do you have a fever?”

Bai Ping touched Fang Tong’s forehead as she said that. It was indeed burning hot. “You really do have a fever! Go back and lie down. I’ll call Fu Yan to come over right now.”

“No need for the trouble, Mom. I just forgot to close the window last night and caught a cold,” Fang Tong quickly stopped her mother-in-law.

If Fu Yan came over, she would not be able to hide her injury.

“But you have a fever. How can you not see a doctor?”

“It’s alright. I just caught a cold. I’ll take some cold medicine later and sleep it off.”

Bai Ping frowned but did not say more. “Then don’t come down and eat with us. I’ll get someone to bring the food up for you. After you eat, quickly lie down and sleep. Cover yourself with more blankets to sweat out the fever and you’ll be fine.”

Fang Tong felt groggier and nodded. She was then aided upstairs by the helper.

After eating some porridge, Fang Tong took a cold pill and two anti-inflammatory pills and lay down to rest.

Because of the injury on her back, although Fang Tong fell asleep, she did not sleep well. She vaguely heard the door opening and thought it was Bai Ping. She half opened her eyes and was about to speak when she saw Gu Ting’s face right in front of her!

She suddenly awoke and sat up in bed. “Why are you in my room? Get out!”

“Sister-in-law, I heard that you were sick and specially came to see you!” Gu Ting locked the door behind him as he spoke.

He had come to discuss something with Old Master Gu today, but Old Master Gu was out, so was Bai Ping. When he heard from the helper that Fang Tong was sick, he thought about the seductive beauty at the dinner party the other night and got excited. He sneaked upstairs when the helper wasn’t paying attention.

“Gu Ting, get out of here! Otherwise, I won’t just dislocate your jaw today. I will tear your whole body apart and reassemble it!”
