"When Wanwan was six years old, she went to an amusement park with her parents and sister, but ended up getting lost. When the police found her, she was soaked in a bathtub full of ice cubes, and her body was covered in scars.
The couple who took her away were a couple. After abusing Wanwan, they didn't want to take her to the hospital, so they soaked her in ice water, saying that this way her wounds would solidify automatically.
This is simply ridiculous! If the police hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid...she would have died." At the end of her words, Xie Rou's voice was choked with sobs.
No wonder she is so afraid of the cold!
Thinking of her pitiful appearance while sleeping on the sofa before, Li Jingchen's chest felt as if he had been punched and became more and more depressed.
"To this day, Wanwan still refuses to tell me what she went through at that time. She always behaves very optimistic and cheerful, but once she gets sick, she becomes very fragile."
When Li Jingchen listened to Xie Rou's words, Lu Wanwan's smile with crooked eyebrows automatically appeared in his mind. Indeed, it was impossible to tell that she had suffered such pain.
Xie Rou continued: "So, I ask you to take good care of her. Wanwan is a good child and doesn't bother others easily. If she suddenly troubles you, then she must have been desperate."
After closing his eyes, Li Jingchen said hoarsely: "I will."

The next day.
When Lu Wanwan woke up, rubbing his eyes, he felt sticky and very uncomfortable.
However, the original symptoms of dizziness and brain swelling disappeared, which shows that her self-recovery that night was very successful!
At this moment, the man sleeping next to her opened his eyes and said with a hint of imperceptible relaxation in his voice: "Are you awake?"
Lu Wanwan saw that his eyes were a little green and he seemed to have not slept well, so he couldn't help but asked with a guilty conscience: "Mr. Li...did I trouble you again last night?"
"You have no memory of what happened last night?"
Lu Wanwan blinked and said slowly: "I felt very tired last night and went to bed early, but then I seemed to hear someone talking in the room?"
"It's Chu Mo and I who are talking."
"Doctor Chu?"
"You suddenly had a high fever last night. I asked him to come over and give you an infusion."
Lu Wanwan understood everything now: "No wonder I recovered so quickly! By the way, Mr. Li, I shouldn't have said any nonsense, right?"
After Li Jingchen thought about it for a while, he said half-truthfully: "You have been calling your dean's mother, so I asked Chu Mo to find her contact number in your mobile phone and called her."
After hearing this, Lu Wanwan asked impatiently: "Why did you call her?"
The dean's mother was sick and hospitalized, and she didn't want the other party to worry about her at all.
Li Jingchen thought that she didn't want Xie Rou to know that he was there, and his aura suddenly became a little dangerous. But then he thought of something, and he just reached out and pinched her face, and said lukewarmly: "
Before Chu Mo left, he left some antipyretic medicine, please remember to take it after breakfast."
"Thank you, I'm sorry to bother you." Lu Wanwan finished with some embarrassment and continued: "Then I'll take a shower first, I have to go to work later."
Li Jingchen asked calmly: "Are you sure you don't want to rest for another day?"
Lu Wanwan shook his head: "No, thanks to you and Dr. Chu, I'm fine!"
Li Jingchen saw that although her little face was still a little pale, she was full of energy, so he didn't say anything more.
"But you, Mr. Li, must have been very busy for me last night. How about you rest a little longer?"
Li Jingchen stayed up almost all night last night to be with her, and now he felt a little sting in his unhealed eyes. Hearing this, he said "hmm" and slowly closed his eyes.

When Lu Wanwan finished packing and walked out of the room, he accidentally bumped into Li Xuyang standing at the door.
She was startled and asked warily: "Why are you here?"
Li Xuyang still had a fever-reducing patch on his forehead. After hearing this, he scanned her up and down, then snorted, turned around and left.
Lu Wanwan was a little confused by him, but as long as he didn't come here to cause trouble, that would be fine.
While eating breakfast, Li Xiangchen suddenly looked at her seriously and said: "Sister-in-law, I heard that Xuyang was naughty yesterday and wanted to tease you, but he fell into the lake instead. Fortunately, you rescued him regardless of previous suspicions. Thank you!"
Li Xiangchen's gratitude at this moment was not fake. After all, what Lu Wanwan saved was his biological brother. What's more, he began to re-examine the prey in front of him.
"It doesn't matter. I knew he was playing a prank and I used it to trick him. If I had exposed him from the beginning..."
"Then he will also fall." Li Xiangchen said soberly: "Because, he has to go to the center of the lake to retrieve his heart-protecting lock."
Lu Wanwan had to admit: "What you said makes sense."
While he was talking, he saw Li Xuyang passing by seemingly unintentionally. Li Xiangchen immediately stopped him: "Xu Yang, come here and say sorry to your sister-in-law."
Li Xuyang walked up to the dining table with an awkward look on his face and said, "I don't."
Lu Wanwan didn't expect him to apologize, so he continued to eat breakfast quietly.
Li Xiangchen's expression darkened: "Then at least say thank you!"
