After Anya left, Tang Yijue went upstairs.

He walked into his bedroom softly and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Fu Xingchen had been cleaned up.

After looking at Fu Xingchen, he took a change of clothes from the wardrobe and entered the bathroom.

When he came out of the washroom, he found that Fu Xingchen's entire body had curled up and was still trembling uncontrollably.

Tang Yijue walked over to the bed and placed a hand on her forehead. He discovered that she really did have a terrible fever.

Tang Yijue added a quilt to her bed and fed her some water. He went back and forth several times to calm her down. By the time he finished, the time had already turned to three in the morning.

Looking at the sleeping Fu Xingchen, Tang Yijue let out an almost inaudible sigh. He then left the bedroom and entered the study.

The weather was cold. Tang Yijue put on a coat and went to review the documents that had been moved to his study.

Time passed bit by bit. Tang Yijue drank his coffee to refresh his spirit while concentrating on handling the documents.

During this time, he ignored all of Fu Mo's calls.

"..."

After an unknown period of time, the sleeping Fu Xingchen felt a pair of slightly cold hands touch his forehead and even pulled up the quilt for her. He then discovered that she had been carried into a large embrace that was familiar and warm.

She couldn't help but burrow into his embrace.

Seeing Fu Xingchen in his arms, Tang Yijue's eyes turned dark.

He gently pushed away the hair that was scattered across her face. The side of her face was astonishingly beautiful. Compared to her immature face six years ago, it now had a natural charm to it.

Tang Yijue couldn't help but laugh. Such an intimate posture made him think back to six years ago, when they had shared a very small and worn out bed.

It was also because of the current weather. The rain fell endlessly, and the biting cold wind blew.

"..."

It was just dawn. Fu Xingchen, who had a splitting headache, woke up due to the biological clock.

She opened her sore eyes and looked at a foreign environment. She blinked in confusion as she searched through her memories from last night.

The memory of last night slowly replayed itself in her mind, causing her face to turn pale.

Fu Xingchen smiled mockingly as he shook off the painful memories. His handsome face appeared in her mind. She took a look at her surroundings and got out of bed.

The room's layout was somewhat similar to her own, either white or black and gray. The things in the bedroom were arranged neatly and meticulously, very similar to its owner.

When she opened the door, she was surprised to find that her clothes had changed, and that her body seemed to have been washed.

While she was lost in her thoughts, Tang Yijue's handsome face appeared before her. He probed her forehead with his hand. "I won't burn it."

"Hmm?" She still hadn't come to her senses.

Tang Yijue took her hand familiarly and said as they walked, "Let's go eat."

He brought Fu Xingchen to the dining table and they sat facing each other. Tang Yijie gave her a cup of steaming milk. His voice was pleasant and gentle as he said, "I just had a fever. Drink some milk."

She blinked at him, then took the milk. "Thank you."

Tang Yijue couldn't help but laugh. "Thank me for what?"

Fu Xingchen was stunned. His amber eyes glimmered with light. She looked at his eyes, which were filled with a faint smile. Her thin, red lips uttered a few words, "Everything."

Thank you for coming to my side like a god at my most miserable time. Take me away, take care of me, give me warmth …

Her eyes were sincere, and Tang Yijue felt that they were excessively beautiful, easily attracting his attention.

He looked back at her, his eyes abnormally deep. "So?"

So?

Fu Xingchen was once again bypassed, so what?

She thought for a moment, and an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. She said in a bad tone, "I'm your wife. You can't be thinking that you will be repaid, right?"

What sort of relationship between husband and wife was this!

Tang YiJue was stunned, but quickly recovered and laughed: "No need to repay me."

Seeing his slightly mocking gaze, Fu Xingchen finally realized what he had said. His face instantly flushed red.

She quickly lowered her head and silently ate her breakfast, lowering her head to the ground.

Seeing the extremely uncomfortable Fu Xingchen, Tang YiJue no longer teased her.

"Since he's already here, there's no need to go back. If there's anything you need, just call Jason and ask him to go get it. If you need anything, you can buy it from the mall."
