Chapter 50 - High Fever
When He Ruiting came out of the bathroom, he was already lying on the bed, covered by the blanket.
He Ruiting found it funny. Was he that scary? Or could it be that he was showing a thirst?
"Aren't you bored?" He Ruiting reached out to pull the blanket.
"Fortunately, I'm not bored." Su Jinyi pulled on her blanket tightly, her voice sounded from within the blanket, sounding a little gloomy.
Seeing her like that, He Ruiting ignored her, picked up the phone on the table, and left the room. When Su Jinyi heard the sound of the door closing, he secretly poked his head out from under the blanket. When he was not there, he took a deep breath.
He Ruiting went out to make a phone call. In less than five minutes, Su Jinyi was actually a little tired, but she kept holding on. Although this was not the first time she slept in his room, she was still not completely used to it.
"It's getting late, hurry up and rest." Just as Su Jinyi was looking at the ceiling and thinking, He Ruiting had already returned to his bedside.
Seeing that he was taking off his robe, Su Jinyi quickly turned his body around and did not look at him.
"Sooner or later, what are you shy about?" He Ruiting laughed, thinking that she was extremely cute.
"Let's wait until that day comes." Su Jinyi understood what day he was talking about, but if he could hide, then he would.
He Ruiting crawled onto the bed and furrowed his brows, "Why is it that after being covered for so long, the blanket is still cold?"
"It'll be warm soon." Su Jinyi's body was cold. When winter came, her feet would always be cold, and every night when she slept, no matter how she covered them, they would always be cold. Even if she woke up on the next day, they would still be the same.
But, that's not right. Why does she feel like a servant girl with a warm bed? This person isn't right!
After He Ruiting laid down, he grabbed with his long arm and pulled Su Jinyi into his embrace. Su Jinyi subconsciously struggled, only to hear him say: "Don't move recklessly!"
After that, Su Jinyi really did not dare to move. Her entire body was lying stiffly in He Ruiting's embrace, her brain somewhat empty.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything. I'll just hug you like this." He Ruiting could feel her unease. As he spoke, he also lightly patted Su Jinyi's head, wanting to let her relax a little. There was no need to be so nervous.
Su Jinyi could not remember when she fell asleep. She only remembered that when she laid in He Ruiting's embrace, her body warmed by quite a bit, and then she gradually relaxed.
The next day, when Su Jinyi woke up, she found that there was nothing around her. She blurrily got up from the bed, but the moment she left the blanket, she immediately wrapped herself in a thick nightgown. The weather was getting colder and colder.
Coming down from the stairs, Su Jinyi was still cold. Just as she walked to the stairs, she returned to her room and added another set of clothes.
When Su Jinyi came to the table, He Ruiting was already sitting there eating breakfast.
"Is it cold?" He Ruiting saw that she had wrapped herself up tightly, and said, "The temperature of the air-conditioning at home is very high, do you still feel cold?"
"The air-conditioning at home is on?" Su Jinyi was a little confused. When she got up from the bed, she thought that the air conditioner was not turned on, but now that He Ruiting said that the air conditioner was turned on, why did she still feel cold?
"Nanny Lin!" He Ruiting sized her up, then called out to the kitchen: "Bring the thermometer over."
"Hey, I'm going." Nanny Lin came out of the kitchen, wiped the water on her hands, and quickly went to get a thermometer.
He Ruiting passed the thermometer to her: "Take your temperature. Your face doesn't look very good."
Su Jinyi touched her forehead, as if she couldn't feel it out too well, and then obediently received the thermometer.
Five minutes later, Su Jinyi took out the thermometer.
Thirty-nine degrees.
"Why am I having a fever?" Su Jinyi looked at the thermometer, slightly surprised. Other than feeling a little cold, everything else was fine.
"Don't go to the company today, I'll take you to the hospital first." He Ruiting said as he put down the breakfast in his hand and stood up from the chair.
"No need, I'll take a antipyretic later. I'll be fine after I sleep at home." Su Jinyi didn't really want to go to the hospital.
"The fever is already so high, how can we not go to the hospital!" Lin Mang also said from the side.
"But, I really feel better. Other than being a bit cold, there really isn't anything uncomfortable about it." In order to prove that he was alright, Su Jinyi had even skipped a beat.
This time, He Ruiting did not give Su Jinyi a chance to object, he directly carried Su Jinyi and said to Nanny Lin: "Go and get a thicker blanket."
"Hey, He Ruiting, I really don't need to go to the hospital. Su Jinyi struggled in his embrace, but refused to go to the hospital, "I'm not going to the hospital, there's really no need!"
No matter how Su Jinyi struggled or how much she objected, He Ruiting did not let her down and insisted on bringing her to the hospital.
Just like that, Su Jinyi was carried to the hospital. After checking, Su Jinyi only had a normal cold, maybe because she had caught a cold last night.
"Although it's just an ordinary cold, you still have to pay great attention to it. First, give me an injection of the anti-fever medicine, then observe it for a bit and you can take it back to the hospital to recuperate."
"Then I'm going to stay in the hospital today?" Su Jinyi asked the doctor.
"It's just an ordinary cold. I don't need to stay in the hospital for observation. I just need to stay for another two hours after I finish applying the antipyretic. I'll just need to observe for a bit." the doctor explained with a smile.
"Look, the doctors said it's okay, but you have to make a fuss about it." Su Jinyi said as she looked at He Ruiting.
He Ruiting didn't say anything as he brought Su Jinyi to hang some salt water. Not long after hanging it, Su Jinyi's sleepiness came.
"Sleep, I'll guard you here." He Ruiting watched as she gradually became weaker, and felt his heart ache.
"Then you're not allowed to leave." Su Jinyi's eyes were already closed, and her words seemed to be weak.
"Well, I won't leave." He Ruiting sat in front of her sickbed, grabbed her hand and said gently.
was not used to such a quiet place like this. Her face was a little pale, and she was very curious as to why this woman had such a high fever, and still pretended to be as if nothing had happened. He Ruiting did not like her strength at all, but he truly hoped that Su Jinyi would be able to completely rely on her in front of her, that she would be able to rely on her, and that she would not act as if she was strong.
