Chapter 453 - Fever

"Is she angry?" Yan Chu was curious how Yu Jia Hui reacted when she found out about the big secret that Jackson had kept.

"She was shocked at first, but she wasn't angry because she kind of knew how important the things we do are, especially since Heinrich Corporation is around now and the fact that Heinrich Corporation is trying to monopolise the country is not secret."

"Wow… Quite brave on her side."

"Yea. Anyway, Mr. CEO, don't change the subject. Where were you and what were you up to last night? Why do you look so tired?" Mo Xi looked at Yan Chu with curious eyes.

Yan Chu looked away instantly so that Mo Xi couldn't see his eyes, "Nothing."

Mo Xi laughed, "Anxious all night?"

Yan Chu shot Mo Xi an unhappy glare, "No." 

"Lang Yi told me that An An had high fever yesterday, were you busy taking care of her?"

"…"

Yesterday.

*Knock* *Knock*

Yan Chu knocked on Su An An's apartment at the same time as he did the past few days.

After a few moments, no one came to open the door, so he knocked again. However, once again no one answered.

"Oi. Wake up. It's already five in the afternoon. Open the door," Yan Chu knocked harder and pressed the doorbell.

A short while later, the door opened very slowly.

"Were you sleeping?" Yan Chu asked the moment he saw Su An An.

Su An An opened her eyes lazily and looked at Yan Chu, "Mm."

"It's already five in the afternoon. Your work ended early yesterday, so what were you up to last night and this morning?"

Yan Chu looked at Su An An a little sceptically.

"Nothing much…" Su An An waved her hand in front of her weakly before she turned around to walk back to bed.

"Careful!"

However, Su An An's body slanted sideways and Yan Chu caught her in his arms before she fell to the floor.

"Are you having a fever?! Your body is very hot!" Yan Chu said anxiously as he touched Su An An's forehead.

"Am I?" Su An An was still in a blur and she touched her forehead.

"Maybe I am… It feels a little bit hot," Su An An smiled and tried to walk back to the bed.

"Have you taken any medicine?"

"Did I?" Su An An looked up slightly as she thought.

"I think I did…"

"When?"

"In the morning…" Su An An shook her head as though trying to clear her fuzzy mind and turned around to make way to the kitchen to get the fever medicine.

Yan Chu felt as though he was looking at a dummy and he felt frustrated because of Su An An's lack of care for her own body.

Yan Chu looked at Su An An as she swayed to the kitchen very slowly and shook his head. He quickly stepped forward and carried her in his arms to go to the bedroom.

Su An An was shocked by Yan Chu's action that she shrieked in surprise, "What are you doing?!"

"At the rate and the way that you walk, you are going to fall face flat on the floor."

"No. I won't," Su An An struggled slightly.

"Yes. You will. You almost fell when you turned around just now."

Hearing that, Su An An stopped struggling and snuggled closer to Yan Chu because of the warmth radiating from his body, "Oh, right. Thank you."

Yan Chu then placed Su An An on the bed, "Have you eaten anything today?"

"I ate a sandwich around noon…" Su An An's mind was bȧrėly working.

Yan Chu sighed, "At least you still remember to eat something even when your brain isn't working well."

"What?" Su An An asked as she didn't catch what Yan Chu said.

"Nothing. Are you hungry?"

"No… I don't have the appetite…"

"Where's the fever medicine?"

"In… In the kitchen's top left cabinet."

"Have a rest first. I will go get the medicine for you."

"Ok. Thank you," Su An An smiled drowsily and closed her eyes.

Yan Chu tucked Su An An into the bed and sighed once again. He looked at her for a moment and thought how cute she was when she wasn't all toughed up. Ever since the first time he met her, she had always been a tough girl. However, now that she was sick, and had let her guards down, she looked just like a little girl.

Yan Chu went to the bathroom to get a towel and wet it before placing it on Su An An's forehead. Her eyebrows scrunched up a little due to the coldness and she let out a soft groan of protest before drifting back to sleep.

"I thought you are a lioness, but you are actually just a little kitty," Yan Chu let out a soft laugh before he went to the kitchen.

Yan Chu went to search for the fever medicine, but when he found it, he realised that it had expired already. He then opened the cabinets and fridge to see if there were any food that Su An An could eat if she got hungry in the middle of the night. However, he realised that the cabinets and fridge were empty, there were only pots and cutleries which were already provided by Blue Diamond Entertainment.

Ever since Su An An joined Blue Diamond Entertainment officially, she was given the option of having her own apartment or staying with her parents like before. She then decided to stay in her own apartment because she was worried that she would return home late from work and would disturb her parents if they lived together. Besides, there were times where she wanted to stay up late to read her scripts, and if she stayed with her parents, they would be worried about her. Hence, she had been staying in the apartment alone for half a year.
