“Bo Han, what’s wrong?” Zhuang Tianya reached out to touch his forehead. “It’s so hot, you have a fever too. Could it be that I infected you last night?”
Xu Baohan pulled his arm back and sat on the stairs to rest. He didn’t even have the strength to speak.
“I’m sorry, it’s all because of me.” Zhuang Tianya bent down, her face full of guilt and worry. “You shouldn’t have bothered about me yesterday.”
“Even if… she was just a stranger, I would have sent her to the hospital.” Xu Baohan closed his eyes and replied with difficulty in breathing. “Why are you here?”
“Did you forget? Yesterday, the doctor told me to take the drip for three days straight, I just finished it.” Zhuang Tianya took the examination report from his hands. “I’ll accompany you to the Doctor.”
“No need.” Xu Baohan pushed her, he didn’t want to have too much contact with her. “I can do it myself.”
“Don’t try to be brave. I had a fever yesterday too, I know how uncomfortable it is,” Zhuang Tianya said. “The virus has mutated now, the cold and fever are much more uncomfortable than before.”
Xu Baohan didn’t have any strength at all. At this moment, he probably couldn’t even crush an egg. When Zhuang Tianya helped him down the stairs, he didn’t have the strength to resist at all.
“By the way, you’re sick like this. Where’s your girlfriend?” Zhuang Tianya asked. “Why didn’t she come over to accompany you?”
“She’s working.”
Zhuang Tianya frowned when she heard that. She wasn’t too happy. “You’re sick, why is she still working? Is work more important or you? Does she know that you have a cold?”
Xu Baohan pursed his thin lips. He was frustrated. He had a headache, but now it was like an electric drill. At the same time, his heart was throbbing.
It was fine if An Lan didn’t know, but she knew.
“This is a problem between us.” He glanced at Zhuang Tianya coldly. “I don’t like people talking about her.”
“I’m not talking about her, I’m just…” Zhuang Tianya bit her lip. “I wasn’t feeling well yesterday, I know how uncomfortable it is. Even if you’re a man, when you’re sick you’re just an ordinary person. Forget it, I won’t talk about it.”
There was silence on their way to the hospital. They waited outside the doctor’s door for a while, then both of them entered.
After the doctor prescribed the medicine, Zhuang Tianya snatched Xu Baohan’s treatment card. “Sit down, I’ll go get the medicine.”
Xu Baohan frowned. Just as he opened his mouth, Zhuang Tianya interrupted him. “You helped me yesterday, I’ll take it as I’m returning it to you today. Besides, don’t try to be brave, I know you can’t even walk properly.”
Xu Baohan closed his eyes. His body was no longer under his control, so he could only let her be.
After Zhuang Tianya fetched the IV drip, she sent him for infusion treatment.
After the nurse finished inserting the syringe, Xu Baohan lay on the recliner to rest, his eyes closed as he slept.
Zhuang Tianya stood guard at the side for a while, but he didn’t notice when she left.
He didn’t know how much time had passed, but he felt a warm palm on his forehead. The feeling of this palm was very familiar, so familiar that he was in a daze. But soon, he vaguely remembered that there was only Zhuang Tianya by his side.
He immediately raised his hand and removed the hand on h forehead. He opened his dark eyes, and when he saw the person standing beside him clearly, he was stunned, thinking that he had gone crazy from the fever.
“Why are you looking at me like that? You don’t even recognize me.” An Lan looked at him with a complicated feeling. There was a traffic jam on the way there, and when she arrived at the hospital, she guessed that he might need an IV drip, so she directly looked for him and did not want to contact him. She didn’t expect that she would find him.
Usually, he looked strong and healthy. Now, his face was as pale as wax paper, his lips were dry, and his eyes were vacant. This was the first time she had seen him so weak.
