Chapter 35 The Maid’s Severe Cold

Going downstairs and walking to the sofa, he gently sat down next to Asai Mao. Natsume Naoki's message bar appeared in his sight.

In the physical status column at the bottom, Asai Mao changed from "The probability of suffering a severe cold in the near future has increased by 95%" in the morning to "I am in a severe cold".

"The possibility has become an established fact." He sighed and slowly stretched out his hand.

His hand very slowly approached Asai Mao, and his whole body was slowly leaning forward. So under Asai's calm and acquiescent gaze, his fingers slowly pushed aside the black hair on Asai's forehead, and put his palm on it.

["Mao Asai" physical condition: body temperature 38.8°C, viral influenza, immunity continues to decline]

The information column was corrected in real time as he touched it. Natsume Naoki thought to himself that his hand could actually be used as a thermometer?

Just touch it and you can know the most specific temperature and condition, which is much easier to use than those temperature guns in big shopping malls.

Incredibly, the information bar seems to have unlocked many unique functions related to "physical strength".

But now is not the time to think about this. Although Asai Mao appears very calm, she is still a human being and cannot control her instinctive reaction——

His face was reddish and hot, his eyes were slightly blurred, and there was a little sweat on his forehead with a few strands of black hair stuck to it.

This kind of forceful struggle with rationality and physiological reactions is really unbearable to see.

Especially since Asai is the one taking care of him on weekdays.

As a reincarnation who spent two lives to establish three views, Natsume Naoki is well-educated and kind-hearted. Even if his neighbor with whom he has a close relationship is ill in bed, he will do the little things he can, not to mention the person in front of him who always thinks about him and gets along day and night.

girl.

"Have you taken the medicine?" he asked.

Asai Mao looked at the pill box on the table and said: "There is another one today, take it half an hour after dinner."

Natsume Naoki took the medicine box on the table and carefully looked at the course of treatment and dosage. Then he took out the medicine board and counted it. It was only enough to last until noon tomorrow.

I got up and went to the kitchen to look at the remaining Chinese medicinal materials. I found that what I asked Mutou Grocery Store to purchase this time were all herbs for treating dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation. The only medicinal herbs that could be used to treat colds were bought by Asai Mao.

That moment was used by her.

I vaguely remember that time I was complaining that Asai's breasts were different from those in the video, and she got a cold as a result.

Now, God is reincarnating. In the past, the maid took care of him, and now it is Gouxiu Jinsama's turn to take care of the maid.

"I'll make dinner tonight. Although it may taste a little bad, you need to rest in bed." Natsume Naoki said: "The temperature is close to 39°C. If your fever can't go away by tomorrow morning, I have to take you to the hospital.

."

Asai Mao's attention was not on Natsume Naoki's concern, but on why he knew how high his fever was.

He spread his left hand and looked at the thermometer in his hand. Did he just see it?

She clearly didn't want him to know, but with her own constitution, she might be fine if she took medicine and lay down for a while. Once she got sick, she would have to pile up work. Even at this time, she was thinking about her duties as a maid.

Because of his own fever, Asai Mao saw how paranoid the stubborn Natsume Naoki was, so he almost forced her back to the utility room on the second floor that was converted into a bedroom to let her rest.

This is the first time Natsume Naoki has entered Asai's boudoir since he helped clean it up when Asai came to the house on the first day.

I don’t know if all girls are so fragrant, but the utility room that originally only smelled of musty dust was filled with a faint fragrance of gardenia.

Because there is no bed, Asai Mao has been sleeping in a tent for the past month. A simple camping tent is covered with thick mattresses and bedding, which can be regarded as a small nest for the maid.

Asai was forced to lie down by Natsume. He went to get the winter quilt that he had dried and planned to seal and covered Asai. The four corners of the quilt were tucked under him, making him feel as thick and warm as a big bear.

"I think you may be confused if you care," Asai said: "There is no need for this. I am not the kind of girl who is so fragile that she becomes a first-level protected animal after catching a cold."

"Care will lead to chaos..." Natsume Naoki brought the hot water outside her tent, "The hot water is outside, be careful not to touch it and spill it when you take it. If your quilt is wet, the cold will be worse. Care will lead to chaos.

Isn’t the word “kind” inappropriate to use on me?”

"Natsume-kun, do you think you don't care about others?"

"It's hard to say I care. I just did what a normal person should do."

Natsume Naoki smiled: "If someone else I know gets a cold and gets sick, as long as they don't cause gossip, I will do my best."

After hearing this, Asai Mao thought for a moment, sighed and covered half of her face with the quilt, closed her eyes slightly and prepared to sleep for a while.

"That's true, you are always so kind. In ancient times, it would have been easy to get repayment from them for saving an injured fox."

"Fortunately, you saved me."

This sentence was said so softly that Natsume Naoki didn't hear it.

"Although I say that I will take care of people I know when they are sick... but you are right about one thing," Natsume Naoki walked to the door, turned around and looked at Asai Mao, who was lying in the tent with a red face, scratched his head and said softly: "

But there are not many people that I care about. There are almost no people in Tokyo that I care about... But at least Asai, you are definitely one of them."

Asai Mao slowly opened her eyes and tilted her head to look at him.

The beautiful eyes reflected Natsume Naoki's slowly turning red face.

He also realized that what he said seemed a bit...ambiguous, so he panicked a little: "I'll go to Nanami's school doctor tomorrow to get some medicine, and I'll go cook first!"

After closing the door and leaving, Asai gently shook his head.

"If I knew how to say this to your senior sister, I wouldn't have to worry too much."

The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to mortal hearts.

Natsume Naoki's cooking was far from as good as Asai's craftsmanship, but it was better to have more and more. He was afraid that Asai would be lonely eating alone, so he simply carried the spare small dining table from the kitchen to Asai's room.

The spare dining table is not big, probably about the same size as a school desk, but it was impossible for Natsume Naoki to move... He used to be almost exhausted from carrying buckets of water.

Now my physical strength has at least returned to 6 points, and I am no different from ordinary people who exercise regularly. I can easily move a desk.

Natsume's family is at its most cozy when the two of them have dinner together, chatting and laughing.

Although Natsume was talking and smiling most of the time, Asai just watched calmly, but even so Asai felt that this kind of life was not bad.

She was very considerate to Natsume, she ate well and slept soundly at night.

…………………………

The next morning, Natsume Naoki got up early. He had to go to the school infirmary to get medicine before going to class.

Before leaving, he touched the shallow well with his hand. If the information column is correct, the operation last night was completely effective. The body temperature has dropped from 38.8℃ to 37.8℃.

After getting rid of the risk of high fever, all that remains is to take medicine according to the doctor's advice.

Even the strongest people will be hit by diseases. Asai Mao can open durians and break down iron fences with her bare hands, but the maid in heaven and earth has to take leave and stay in bed because of a cold she hasn't had in more than ten years.

Looking at the roof of the tent, Asai Mao thought that she had successfully completed the task.

Although Natsume Naoki didn't know how to explain it and didn't explain it to her in detail, the attentive Asai still understood that she had returned the "seed" of her physical strength to him.

The previous maximum limit of only 3 points has been broken. Then Natsume Naoki can regain the health and physique he deserves as a normal person. If he continues to exercise in the future, he can also reap rewards equivalent to his efforts.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get results. She made him wait for twelve years for such a miserable life.

"I don't know how many more are left." She took out the small box from her pocket and counted the special matches inside, murmuring softly.
