Chapter 31 - The Hot-Tempered Lady Took Good Care Of Her Sick Boss Despite Everything

"Where is the restroom located? I can't find it," Yifeng said. He knew where the restroom was but he deliberately pressed the alarm to make her come out of her room. Yang Zi pointed to him where he could find it and even explained in detail how he could get there so that he will not call her again. Yang Zi did not get over his first disturbance before the alarm rang once again.

"What do you need this time?", Yang Zi asked, still maintaining her fake polite tone which did not sound polite at all. ​​

"Where do you normally place TV remotes? I couldn't find two of the remotes," Yifeng mentioned giving her the innocent look. Yang Zi was too angry to speak, so she just pointed her index finger at the table close to the television where the remotes were placed.

Yifeng kept on troubling her by pressing the alarm and disturbing her for about two hours before Yang Zi concluded that she had had enough of him. She disconnected the alarm before she sternly cautioned him not to disturb her again. She furiously went back to her room after Yifeng promised not to bother her again.

Yang Zi planned to prepare the lunch after she finished her last sketch, however she fell asleep while drawing. It was very rare for her to take a nap in the afternoon. She must have fallen asleep since she could not get a good night's sleep the previous night.

When she woke up, it was already dark. Yang Zi could not believe that she slept for six hours straight without even waking up once because of her frequent nightmares. She went downstairs to prepare food since they missed their lunch.

While heading downstairs, she was a little worried for her Boss who had to skip lunch because of her when he was sick. At first it relieved her to see him sleeping on the couch, but that expression soon turned to a worried one as she went closer to check up on how he was faring.

For a minute, she was shocked out of her wits when she saw him covered in sweat. He was shivering profusely. She immediately removed the hand she had placed on his forehead to check his temperature out of reflexes. It was as if his head was on fire.

"Hello boss, can you hear me?", Yang Zi squeaked in panic as she squatted beside the couch. She shook him gently to wake him up. Yang Zi was so scared as she tried to wake him up from his deep sleep. After repeatedly shaking him and calling his name, Li Yifeng slowly opened his eyes.

"Oh! It's you, Miss Yang", Yifeng uttered the words with so much difficulty as Yang Zi assisted him to get up on his feet. Subsequently, she dragged him upstairs.

After much difficulty, Yang Zi finally helped him climb the stairs. She carefully laid him down on her bed.

"I will be back", Yang Zi said before she instantly dashed out of the room. She came back two minutes later, with a bowl of water and a towel. She had an anxious look on her face as she pulled his shirt off his body. She did not have time to admire his well-toned abs and muscular body. The only thing that was on her mind was to do everything she could to make sure that his temperature returned to normal.

As she repeatedly wiped off the sweat on his body, face and hands, she did not care to wipe off the sweat that covered her face. She lost track of time as she took care of him. Seeing that his temperature has reduced a bit, she went downstairs to prepare porridge for him. She had originally planned to make spaghetti for the both of them before she met him in that condition, but she changed her mind as his condition was not so good.

Entering the room with porridge, drugs and a glass of water, she was so terrified to notice that his temperature had risen again. She hurriedly placed the stuff on the side table before she quickly changed the water. She sat down next to him to take care of him. By the time she confirmed that his temperature was stable, she was exhausted. She did not have the strength to walk to the couch, so she fell asleep beside him.

Yifeng who slept for over three hours felt an arm wrapped around his body as he slowly opened his eyes. At first he thought he was hallucinating when he saw her lying down beside him, but when he realised that he wasn't daydreaming it stunned him to see her hugging him tightly as she slept. Catching the sight of a bowl of water and a towel, it didn't take him long to guess what must have happened. He slowly turned around to face her. He could not help himself from admiring her as she slept soundly. Since he was not blind, he knew just how pretty she was from the first time he set his eyes on her, but he found her even more beautiful lying down by his side. "So pretty," Yifeng muttered to himself.

Realising how she took care of him despite how mean and uncaring he treated her, his opinion about her changed instantly. He promised himself to treat her better when he got better.
