Not only was Gao Xinyi's body shaking from the cold, but her voice was shaking as she spoke, and her upper and lower teeth kept knocking against each other. She could no longer control herself.
It is now past six o'clock, and the temperature has dropped to three or four degrees. I jumped into the sea for a few minutes at this temperature, and my whole body was soaked by the sea water. It was already very cold, and so many of my clothes were soaked. When the sea breeze blew, it became even more cold.
Cold on top of cold.
At this moment, Gao Xinyi had no thoughts at all. The only thing left was that it was cold. It was so cold that she felt like she was about to freeze to death.
Zhou Chen hugged Gao Xinyi tightly. Although he was soaked and felt cold, his physical fitness was so good that he could completely withstand even such a situation. But Gao Xinyi could not, but now
His body was completely wet, and there was no other way besides hugging Gao Xinyi tightly.
Holding Gao Xinyi in his arms, he rushed to his car parked on the coast very quickly. He first put Gao Xinyi in the passenger seat, then quickly started the car, turned on the air conditioner, walked to the back of the car and opened the trunk.
There were clothes and blankets in his car, so he took off his clothes, put on another piece of clothes, and then took the blanket to the passenger seat.
"Take off your coat."
Zhou Chen took off the trembling Gao Xinyi's coat, then wrapped her in a blanket, and wiped the water off her face and hair with paper.
"Wildcat, please bear with me for a while. I'm going to the hotel now and I'll let you take a hot bath later so you won't be so cold."
Gao Xinyi sat in the passenger seat, her whole body wrapped tightly. She was trembling so much that she didn't want to speak, as if saying a word would reduce her calories.
Zhou Chen increased the speed of the car and drove to the hotel within half an hour of the one-hour journey.
During this process, even though the air conditioner in the car was on, Gao Xinyi still didn't feel much temperature. His face turned blue from the cold, his lips turned purple, and he kept trembling.
After getting off the car, he quickly rushed to the hotel with Gao Xinyi in his arms and went straight to his room upstairs.
But he didn't notice that there were two people sitting in the lobby of the hotel where he stayed.
When Zhou Chen rushed in with Gao Xinyi in his arms, Xu Banxia saw her standing up. She just watched helplessly as Zhou Chen carried Gao Xinyi up the stairs, without stepping forward to greet or stop him, and even stopped Angry
Tong Xiaoqi wanted to rush forward.
"Boss, why are you stopping me? I'm going to teach him a lesson. This guy Zhou Chen is with you and he behaves like this with other women. He must be taught a lesson."
Xu Banxia said with a straight face: "This is my business, Tong Xiaoqi, please don't worry about it."
Tong Xiaoqi was anxious: "You are my boss. He did something sorry for you. How could I not care?"
Xu Banxia said: "Have you forgotten what happened back then? Do you want to go in again?"
Tong Xiaoqi's expression suddenly dropped. It was just to help Xu Banxia that he injured Wang Quan and ended up in prison for five years.
Now that something similar happened again, he was not afraid. Even though he knew that he could not defeat Zhou Chen, he still wanted to vent his anger on Xu Banxia.
Xu Banxia acted too calm, but it could be seen from the clenched fists of her hands that her mood was not as calm as she showed, but was already turbulent, but she could control herself at this moment.
She slowly walked to the place where Zhou Chen had just passed by, and saw the water stains left on the ground. Thinking about the situation where Zhou Chen and he were holding the woman just now, she guessed that the two of them had fallen into the water.
Thinking of this, a situation immediately emerged in her mind. Could it be that Chairman Gao's daughter really had something to do with Zhou Chen, and that she even jumped into the river for Zhou Chen?
In fact, her mood had not been calm all day, and she was very uneasy. Even though she knew the general situation from Feng Yu's mouth, she still didn't believe it.
Zhou Chen is very outstanding, both in terms of appearance and personality, he is far above ordinary people. However, after spending so long with Zhou Chen, she feels that Zhou Chen does not seem like the kind of romantic and merciless man.
But now, he had to believe that the facts were before her eyes. She found that she didn't know Zhou Chen very well. At least she didn't know that Zhou Chen had such a complicated relationship with Gao Xinyi. As for whether Gao Xinyi was Gao Xinyi
She didn't take it to heart about Yue Jin's daughter.
Tong Xiaoqi couldn't let go of his anger at all: "But I'm really not willing to let him go like this. Boss, thanks to us trusting him so much, he really feels sorry for you, boss."
"Stop talking and let's go."
Xu Banxia left the hotel silently. Although Tong Xiaoqi was unwilling to do so, he did not dare to disobey, so he could only follow him and leave angrily.
If it were other women who saw this scene, I'm afraid most of them would rush up to question her and go crazy. But Banxia could hold back. She is no longer an impulsive girl. Making trouble in a place like a hotel would only make it ugly.
Moreover, she and Zhou Chen are just boyfriend and girlfriend now, and that woman is the daughter of Chairman Gao, who is in charge of the steel industry in the province. If things really get serious, she may not be able to go smoothly, but the consequences will be
It must be hard for her to accept.
So she didn't cry or make a fuss, but left peacefully.
…………
Zhou Chen came to the room with Gao Xinyi in his arms. He immediately threw away the wet blanket and went to the bathroom to put in hot water. However, he did not ask Gao Xinyi to take a hot bath immediately. Instead, he was going to let Gao Xinyi put all the water first.
Take off all wet clothes.
"Wildcat, can you undress yourself?"
Gao Xinyi's face was very ugly. After hearing Zhou Chen's words, she nodded with difficulty and wanted to take off her clothes. However, after such a long time, she felt as if her body had stiffened and she could not control her hands very much.
.
Zhou Chen couldn't care about anything else and said immediately: "Wild cat, don't blame me."
Then he immediately started to help Gao Xinyi take off his wet clothes. Even though Gao Xinyi was frozen at this time, his eyes widened when he saw Zhou Chen's movements, and he wanted to struggle, but Zhou Chen's movements were very fast.
, took it off after three times, five times, and two times, then immediately wrapped her in a quilt and held her in his arms again.
During this whole process, Zhou Chen didn't have the slightest desire. All he could think about was to prevent Gao Xinyi from freezing anymore. After wrapping Gao Xinyi in a quilt, he hugged her tightly.
The air conditioner in the room also slowly raised the temperature, making the room a little warmer.
Gao Xinyi was still shivering, but she was feeling better than when she was in the car just now. She was held in Zhou Chen's arms, her eyes were always looking at Zhou Chen, and her face turned a little red.
Although it was a matter of urgency, Zhou Chen had seen everything after all. As a girl who had never been in love, she naturally cared about this kind of thing.
Zhou Chen was so nervous about her along the way. After returning to the room, he immediately helped her without caring about himself. She saw all this. Thinking about it, Zhou Chen listened to her words before and did not hesitate.
Then she jumped into the sea, and the resentment in her heart towards Zhou Chen was reduced a lot.
She asked with a trembling voice: "Why do you want to jump into the sea? Aren't you afraid?"
Zhou Chen hugged her tightly, pressed his cheek against her forehead, and whispered back: "Because I'm more afraid of losing you forever, not to mention that I can swim and won't drown, but you, stupidly, actually jumped too."
Do you really want to scare me to death? Look at how you look now. It’s such a cold weather. What should you do if you get sick? What if there are root causes of the disease? "
Gao Xinyi pursed her lips and said nothing. She didn't think much at that time. She was just angry that Zhou Chen had another woman, so she said those words out of anger.
But after seeing Zhou Chen really jump into the sea, she became anxious, as if she had lost her mind, all she wanted to do was to save Zhou Chen, and then she jumped.
Seeing that Gao Xinyi didn't speak, Zhou Chen didn't say anything more and asked in a low voice: "Do you feel better now?"
"It's getting better, but it's still cold, biting cold, and it still hurts."
Gao Xinyi's complexion was much better than when she first came back, but she still felt uncomfortable all over, with a bone-deep cold and shivering from time to time.
"Wait a while. After your body temperature comes up, I will take you to take a hot bath. After the bath, I will give you some medicine and have a good night's rest. I hope you won't get sick."
Gao Xinyi's face turned red and he whispered: "I can wash it myself."
Zhou Chen was startled for a moment, then realized that Gao Xinyi probably thought he was going to take her to take a hot bath with him. Although he had seen everything he could see just now, she was obviously not used to it and could not accept taking a bath with him.
"Okay, you can take a shower later and call me if you need anything. Just put on my clothes first and I'll buy them for you tomorrow."
"Um."
Gao Xinyi responded softly. After this series of events, she felt very complicated about Zhou Chen, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
After a while, Gao Xinyi wrapped himself in a quilt and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
"Remember to call me if you need anything."
While Gao Xinyi was taking a bath, Zhou Chen tidied up the room. There was water in many places in the room, and the wet clothes were thrown aside. The bedding and other items in this room were no longer usable, so he directly
I called the customer service desk and asked them to open another room next door.
In the bathroom and under the shower, Gao Xinyi kept thinking of how Zhou Chen was nervous about her just now, and she scolded herself fiercely.
"Gao Xinyi, you are so shameless. He already has a girlfriend. What do you want to do?"
She had already made up her mind to stay away from Zhou Chen and never see him again, but now her mood was very complicated, and her mind was filled with all kinds of messy thoughts.
After a full forty minutes, Gao Xinyi came out wearing Zhou Chen's much too big clothes, and Zhou Chen wrapped her in a blow-dried blanket.
"Come here, let me help you blow dry your hair."
Gao Xinyi said: "No, you go take a shower. You are also wet all over. I can blow it myself."
But Zhou Chen couldn't refuse and pushed her in front of him, then took a hair dryer and started to dry her hair.
"I'm in good health, and this little coldness is nothing to me."
With his physical condition, he wouldn't get sick even if he took a cold shower in winter, so he didn't worry about himself at all.
The warm wind blew her wet long hair. Gao Xinyi liked the hot wind very much and was also greedy for the feeling of someone blowing her hair.
Zhou Chen kept drying his hair before stopping.
"The sheets and bedding in the room are all wet. I've asked someone to open another room next door. You wait for me here, and I'll take the sheets and bedding over there and spread them out."
Soon, he made the bed again.
"You sleep on the bed, and I will watch over you. If you feel uncomfortable, just call me. I will always be there. I brewed a cup of isatis root for you by the bedside. Drink it."
Gao Xinyi didn't say anything, drank the isatis root obediently, lay on the bed, and covered herself with a quilt. Although she was still a little uncomfortable now, she was much better.
"I looked at your mobile phone and it's soaked in water and can't be used. If you want to call your mother, just use the phone."
"You don't need to tell me, I will fight when I want to."
After making arrangements for Gao Xinyi, Zhou Chen went to the shower room to take a bath. When he came out, he found that Gao Xinyi had fallen asleep.
He gently covered Gao Xinyi with the quilt, touched her forehead and found that it was not hot. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then sat down on the sofa in the room.
I left two useless mobile phones on the table. Today's mobile phones are still very backward. Naturally, they are not waterproof. After being soaked in seawater without protection, they are completely useless and cannot even be turned on.
.
After searching for someone all day today, he didn't even have time to eat. After running around for so long, he was really hungry now.
However, he was not ready to go out, so he called the front desk and asked the front desk to deliver several buckets of instant noodles. After eating two portions of instant noodles, his hunger was relieved.
After eating, Zhou Chen leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes.
Not long after he slept, he was woken up. When he opened his eyes, he saw Gao Xinyi turning back and forth on the bed. When he looked closer, he saw that her face was unusually red, and he reached out to touch her.
"I have a fever, but the temperature is not low yet."
In fact, he had already prepared for the fever, but he arrived very quickly. He took out the antipyretic medicine he had prepared and gently shook Gao Xinyi awake.
Gao Xinyi opened her eyes and looked at Zhou Chen in confusion. When she woke up, she felt weak all over her body, especially her throat, which was very uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with me?"
"You have a fever, come here, I will help you up and take the anti-fever medicine first."
When she heard that she had a fever, Gao Xinyi was not surprised, because she felt really uncomfortable, her head was dizzy, and she felt like everything in front of her was spinning. She didn't have the strength to move. With Zhou Chen's help, she took the antipyretic medicine.
, and then lay down again.
"Zhou Chen, I feel dizzy and uncomfortable. Cough, cough, cough."
Zhou Chen comforted: "It's okay, I'm here, I will always be with you."
Maybe Zhou Chen's words had an effect. Gao Xinyi didn't say anything about how uncomfortable he was, but just grabbed Zhou Chen's hand tightly and curled up with a frown.
Originally Zhou Chen was just sitting by the bed, but Gao Xinyi slowly changed from grabbing Zhou Chen's hand to cupping Zhou Chen's hand, and finally pulled Zhou Chen to lie down and hugged Zhou Chen tightly.
Zhou Chen was lying there holding Gao Xinyi in his arms. He found that Gao Xinyi's body was shaking from time to time. This was also a common condition when he had a high fever. The effect of antipyretic medicine was not very good. After taking it for an hour, the fever still didn't subside, even without a thermometer.
He could also estimate that Gao Xinyi's body temperature would not be lower than thirty-nine degrees.
That night, he barely slept. Gao Xinyi's high fever subsided a little in the second half of the night, but he was still dazed and sleepy. He tossed and turned and kept mumbling, not knowing what he was saying.
What, I asked for water twice during the night.
It wasn't until about five o'clock in the morning that Gao Xinyi slept a little more peacefully, and he slept peacefully for a while.
