Twenty-Six Burns Even More

Bai Yeqing's thoughts were fuzzy, even looking at things seemed to be covered with a thin layer of fog, but at this moment, her shy, nervous and flustered appearance was so clearly reflected in his eyes.

Unlike a kitten who would scratch people when they first met her, she is now more like a pure and innocent little white rabbit.

"Are you afraid?" He said, although his voice was weak, it also contained provocation.

She urged: "Close your eyes quickly!"

Bai Yeqing felt that her appearance was a little funny. Pulling his lips, he finally closed his eyes.

then……

Xia Xingchen gritted his teeth, his heart froze, and his hand touched his trousers.

Fingertips are trembling.

Terrible!

What kind of errand is this?

"Woman, be careful, don't touch it!" Bai Yeqing opened his eyes, exhorted in a hoarse voice, his eyes were deep.

Xia Xingchen blushed even more, gritted his teeth, and said unwillingly: "What's the matter, anyway, it's not like I haven't touched it before..."

As soon as the words fell, she touched the interest in his eyes, and she was annoyed that she shouldn't be quick with her tongue.

What the hell are you talking about! !

Bai Yeqing squinted his eyes, his expression was a bit ambiguous, but his voice was full of anger, "So I said, what happened five years ago, you don't remember all the pain..."

"..." Xia Xingchen's face was bleeding.

What time is this, and he still has the heart to mention what happened five years ago!

"I don't think you're seriously injured, and you're still so energetic!" she muttered.

Bai Yeqing closed his eyes, and really didn't make any sound. Xia Xingchen braced himself and rubbed his body with alcohol.

Her fingers trembled and stiffened. And he was not much better.

Every unconscious touch of her fingertips made him feel numb and hot like an electric current rushing through.

Her fingers reached between his legs again. He lifted his eyelashes, and held her hand suddenly with his uninjured hand.

Xia Xingchen was already terrified, but he was also taken aback by this touch.

With a little force on his hands, she was caught up.

She let out a light 'ah', and almost jumped on him, pressing on his wound. Startled, she hurriedly put her free hand on his side, supporting her own weight.

"It's very dangerous for you to do this!" She was worried, her eyebrows were twitched, and she gave him a reproachful look.

Bai Yeqing stared at her with burning eyes, "Are you sure this is the method Fu Yichen taught you to reduce fever?"

"Yes." She nodded. The posture of the two people at the moment, she is above, he is below, and the two are very close. The smell of gunpowder and medicinal materials could be smelled clearly on his body.

She just felt her heartbeat speed up inexplicably, as if it could jump out of her chest at any time.

He narrowed his eyes, "Why do I feel that the temperature hasn't dropped at all, but the fever is getting worse?"

Xia Xingchen was embarrassed.

Not only did he feel that the fever was getting worse, but... she also felt that her body was burning hot for no reason!

"Mr. President..." She licked her dry lower lip, "If you keep pulling me like this, the fever may be even worse..."

Not only that, but you are also likely to be infected.

Normal lonely men and widows, if they do this kind of thing, can they not panic?

Bai Yeqing stared at her for a long time, his eyes were burning hot, and he couldn't distinguish the expression clearly. Finally, he slowly let go of her hand.

Xia Xingchen quickly got up, took a deep breath, and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

She glanced at him on the bed, feeling a little uncomfortable, she lowered her head to put away her things, and said, "Well... you should take a good rest, I'll take your temperature later."

He just said "hmm" as an answer. I closed my eyes, as if exhausted, and fell asleep again after a while.

Xia Xingchen packed his things, then pulled the quilt to cover him carefully. Looking at his flushed face, he felt worried.

Tonight, I will definitely have to guard him, so I won't be able to sleep. She couldn't actually sleep either.

Worry.

However, Xia Xingchen didn't dare to think about why he was so worried about him.

Just after tidying up, Chi Weiyang's phone call came in. Afraid of disturbing him, she covered the microphone and ran outside to listen.

"Xia Xingchen, tell me what the hell are you doing."

Chi Weiyang yelled over there: "Are you offended, aren't you? You have worked hard for so long, just for today's assessment, and now you say you won't take the test. Tell me, what reason do you have? !"

Xia Xingchen's nerves twitched and his scalp tingled from being yelled at. In fact, thinking about it, it's really a pity.

That job is what many people dream of.

Now that I think of all my hard work in vain, I still feel a little embarrassed.

"Forget it, this is the end of the matter, I... I will find another job."

"reason!"

"..." Xia Xingchen glanced at the closed door of the room, "I have a friend...he suddenly fell ill, very seriously ill. So, I came to take care of him."

"Friend? Boy?"

"……Ok."

"The one you live with?"

"...Actually, we really don't count as living together, but because of some unavoidable reasons, we have to live together. To be precise, we don't know each other very well."

"If you don't know him well, why don't you even want such a good job opportunity just because he's sick! Besides, doesn't it mean he has no family, why does he use you, an 'unfamiliar' person, to take care of him?"

Chi Weiyang's words were actually Xia Xingchen's puzzlement.

Among the servants and housekeepers in the family, some had been with him for 10 years. He didn't choose to believe them, but chose her, who he didn't know very well...

Why?

He believes in himself?

But... This feeling of being trusted is actually not bad.

Xia Xingchen pouted, "It's useless to say anything now."

"It's really useless. You're on the list just now."

As expected.

And...Even if she was not registered, it is impossible for her to go to work these days to take care of him. Now it's easy, you don't need to ask for leave.

Chi Weiyang didn't understand her behavior in every way, but she couldn't talk to her further. The two chatted casually and hung up the phone.

Xia Xingchen opened the door and glanced into the room. Seeing that he was still asleep, he breathed a sigh of relief before going to the kitchen.

Let's see what to do for him, which can give him a boost.

In the kitchen, there is everything. All very fresh ingredients.

Xia Xingchen was a little hungry, so he cooked a few noodles for himself first, and ate them. While eating, I thought about recipes that I could make for him.

Now that he is so seriously injured, he must only eat light food.

It's just that, with his picky mouth, all she can cook are home-cooked dishes, the most common ones, and I don't know if he can get used to them.

Xia Xingchen thought about it, and finally made him a bowl of shredded chicken porridge and boiled it over the fire. Thinking that when he wakes up and is hungry, he can eat it anytime.
