Menstrual period and tiredness and staying up late lead to a decrease in resistance, and catching a cold can cause high fever.
The problem was not serious. He prescribed some medicine and the doctor left.
Qiao Yuxian took medicine and lay down. Aunt Mei put away everything she needed and left.
Qiao Yuxian watched Aunt Mei leave, and Gu Yanjing was about to leave too. She reached out to pull his sleeve, but because Gu Yanjing took a step forward, she missed the sleeve and caught his finger.
Gu Yanjing felt her cold fingers, paused, and looked at her.
Qiao Yuxian felt a little uncomfortable with the fever. She didn't want to stay by herself. She just didn't want Gu Yanjing to leave. She didn't even notice that she was holding his finger: "Can you stay with me for a while?"
When she was sick, her grandparents would stay with her. When she was older, her grandma would sleep with her.
As a result, when she was sick, she longed for someone to accompany her, otherwise she would never be able to sleep.
Gu Yanjing looked at her.
Qiao Yuxian shrank into the quilt, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, and whispered: "It'll be fine in a while. Can you leave before I fall asleep? I should fall asleep quickly. I don't want to be alone."
Gu Yanjing looked at her eyes which were dry due to heat. Her eyelashes had lost their usual vitality. He said, "I'll pour some hot water."
"Oh." Qiao Yuxian let go of him, retracted her hands into the quilt, hugged the hot water bottle, and even her head into the quilt.
Gu Yanjing rubbed the area on her finger that she had touched, and went downstairs to get hot water.
Qiao Yuxian only drank half a cup before he couldn't drink any more. He lay back on the quilt and said in a hoarse voice: "What a retribution. I haven't moved much for more than a month, and my immunity is like a weak chicken."
Gu Yanjing brought a chair over and sat beside the bed.
"Retribution for kicking the quilt." Gu Yanjing said softly.
Qiao Yuxian glanced at him: "I haven't had such a high fever for a long time. It's already broken my high fever record."
"Is it easy to have a fever?" Gu Yanjing asked.
"No." Qiao Yuxian said and coughed twice, "My physical condition is quite good. This was an accident today."
Gu Yanjing said nothing.
Qiao Yuxian looked at him, lay down obediently, and said, "I'm going to sleep. Just leave if you fall asleep. Quietly, don't turn off the light, I won't wake up."
"Um."
Qiao Yuxian closed her eyes and slept.
As she said, she fell asleep very quickly as if she was afraid of delaying Gu Yanjing's rest.
Gu Yanjing sat on the chair and looked at her.
Her eyelashes are thick and long, hanging quietly like two small fans.
My skin is very good, white and tender, but now it looks abnormally pale.
The thin lips that used to be moist and red have also lost their color.
He is usually well-behaved and quirky. He is also well-behaved now, but he looks very fragile. He looks like he will break if touched.
Gu Yanjing didn't leave, nor did she turn off the lights in the room, she just stayed with her.
Seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, he turned on his phone and looked at some messages that he had not processed at night.
One of them was sent by his special assistant.
[Young Master Gu, I still haven’t found any useful information. It’s too clean and nothing is left.]
Gu Yanjing looked at the news and raised her eyes to look at Qiao Yuxian.
After a pause, he replied to the other party: [Don’t check it yet.]
Last week, when Gu Yanjing asked Shang Chen to deal with Qiao Yuxian's tutoring agency, he found that someone had taken action before them and reported the tutoring agency.
Moreover, it was done in one step, and the relative of the conductor and the person whom the conductor bribed were dealt with at once.
With no one to protect him, the counseling agency was quickly investigated, closed down, and the counselors were taken away.
If things are done too fast, someone must be pressuring me.
Gu Yanjing couldn't find out Qiao Yuxian, so she asked someone to check according to this line.
The result was nothing.
Gu Yanjing closed her phone and looked at Qiao Yuxian again.
She just turned over and hid her head under the quilt, only her eyes were exposed, and she seemed to be sleeping soundly.
He initially checked on Qiao Yuxian because of the old man's attitude towards her and because he felt she was unsafe.
Although the old man asked him to take care of her and treat her well, he also acquiesced in his suspicions and his investigation.
There were so many people who wanted to kill him that he had to become suspicious.
When I checked this time, I was suspicious, but more out of curiosity.
I wonder what else she has going on.
However, since it has not been found, it will not be checked.
He was willing to keep some sense of mystery about her, and suddenly, he was a little willing to choose to believe her.
I hope he doesn't make the wrong choice.
"Grandma." Qiao Yuxian's hand moved under the quilt and made a sound.
"Huh?" Gu Yanjing thought she was awake, "What?"
"I don't want them." Qiao Yuxian mumbled again vaguely.
Gu Yanjing noticed that she was talking in her sleep, but still responded to her cooperatively: "What?"
"Don't want them." Qiao Yuxian's voice became clearer.
"Who don't you want?" Gu Yanjing asked.
Qiao Yuxian kicked her legs, frowned and said, "I don't want auntie, don't live with them."
Her voice was low and a little angry.
Gu Yanjing looked at her and asked after a few seconds: "Why?"
"They are all bad people." Qiao Yuxian muttered, "The big bad ones are not the bad guys. They are not. They are annoying, too annoying."
Her words were intermittent, some were clear and some were very vague.
Gu Yanjing also heard a rough idea.
Qiao Yuxian whispered for a long time, and finally she suddenly shed tears and whispered: "Grandma, I miss you so much."
After saying this, she settled down.
He stopped talking in his sleep and relaxed his brows.
It was like she was trapped in a nightmare, and grandma came into her dream and brought her out.
Gu Yanjing looked at her, and after a while, he reached out to wipe the tears that fell on the bridge of her nose, and then touched her head.
After a while, Qiao Yuxian began to sweat, and her fever slowly subsided.
When Qiao Yuxian woke up early the next morning, Gu Yanjing had already left, and the chair next to the bed had been taken away, leaving no trace at all.
Qiao Yuxian felt relaxed and in a good mood. She felt like she could run downstairs for a thousand meters now.
She got out of bed, washed up, changed her clothes and went downstairs.
When she arrived in the living room, she saw Gu Yanjing sitting on the sofa drinking coffee. She walked lightly and quietly walked behind the sofa little by little, then squatted down and slowly came behind him.
He suddenly appeared and slapped his hand on the back of the sofa, making a loud movement: "Young Master Gu! Good morning!"
However, Gu Yanjing, who had noticed her a long time ago, did not react and just turned his head to look at her.
Qiao Yuxian looked at his delicate and cold eyebrows, curled her lips, and sighed: "Why can't I scare you?"
"Is it better?" Gu Yanjing asked.
"Of course." Qiao Yuxian walked around to the sofa and squatted in front of the coffee table, "My physical fitness is quite good."
Gu Yanjing said nothing and took a sip of coffee.
"The main reason is that I slept well last night." Qiao Yuxian tore open a bag of nuts and said casually, "I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep because I was sick, but I didn't expect that I slept pretty well."
Gu Yanjing glanced at her, but still didn't say anything.
"Why are you drinking coffee?" Qiao Yuxian tilted her head and looked at him, "I haven't seen you drink it in the morning before. Didn't you sleep well?"
Gu Yanjing looked at the coffee, paused and said quietly: "I get used to it occasionally."
"Oh." Qiao Yuxian continued to eat nuts.
It happened that Aunt Mei came out of the kitchen at this time and looked at Qiao Yuxian with a smile: "Is Madam feeling better?"
"Okay." Qiao Yuxian said with a smile, "Thank you Aunt Mei for your concern."
Aunt Mei glanced at Gu Yanjing and said warmly: "That's nothing to me. But sir, I stayed with you all night last night, so I probably didn't sleep much."
Gu Yanjing's fingertips moved slightly: "."
Qiao Yuxian was stunned for a moment. The nuts on her fingertips all fell off. She turned around and looked at Gu Yanjing.
