Chapter 189 Bao, I took my medicine today.
Jiang Zhouzhou didn't expect to sleep for so long in Gu Nanfeng's car, and he not only didn't wake her up, but sat quietly in the car instead.
He groggily opened his eyes and saw the dim light from his phone screen illuminating his face. His expression was focused and serious as he swiped the screen with his long, slender fingers, occasionally replying to something.
At this moment, Gu Nanfeng's gaze fell on her, and he smiled, "You're awake."
Jiang Zhouzhou gave a soft "hmm," raised her hand to rub her eyes, and made herself fully awake.
"Go upstairs first, then go home and get some rest."
The two got out of the car and took the elevator upstairs together.
Looking at the fluctuating floor numbers, and glancing furtively at the figure beside her out of the corner of her eye, Jiang Zhouzhou still felt it was all unreal.
The next-door neighbor is Zhou Xian, and the downstairs neighbor is Gu Nanfeng...
Haishi is such a tiny, tiny city!
"You can leave Tangyuan here with me for another day, and we can pick her up tomorrow," Gu Nanfeng suddenly suggested.
It's already late. Bringing the cat home would mean changing the litter box and preparing food and water, which would disturb her rest. It's better to leave her with him for another night.
Jiang Zhouzhou was indeed tired, but she didn't refuse: "Thank you, Brother Nanfeng. I'll trouble you for another day."
She yawned, her expression revealing her undeniable exhaustion.
The elevator finally arrived. Gu Nanfeng got off first, and Jiang Zhouzhou pressed the close button.
After getting home and taking a shower, my fatigue gradually subsided. Just before lying down in bed, I remembered that there was a sickly dog next door.
Jiang Zhouzhou picked up her phone, intending to ask via WeChat, but after thinking about it, she dialed the number instead.
After about ten seconds, the call was finally answered.
"Zhou Xian, are you feeling better?"
A soft "hmm" came from the phone.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhouzhou knew that his condition might have worsened, since it's easy for him to develop a high fever at night.
If he really got better, he wouldn't be like this.
After changing out of her pajamas, Jiang Zhouzhou rang the door next door.
After waiting for a while without any movement, Jiang Zhouzhou knew he was there.
Send him a message via WeChat.
[Jiang Zhouzhou: If you don't open the door, I'm going off to fool around!]
The door opened as soon as the message was sent.
A soft "tsk" reached Jiang Zhouzhou's ears first. The man in front of her was wearing pajamas, and not to mention his face, his exposed skin was also abnormally red.
The moment the door opened, Jiang Zhouzhou felt that even the temperature of the air had risen a little.
How many degrees did it burn?
"Change your clothes, we're going to the hospital." Jiang Zhouzhou's attitude was unusually firm.
Zhou Xian frowned: "I'm not going."
Jiang Zhouzhou thought he was being willful, and unconsciously raised her voice: "You can't take this kind of thing on your shoulders, you have to go."
They tried to grab him and pull him out.
Zhou Xian grasped her wrist, and the scalding heat gradually seeped into Jiang Zhouzhou's skin from his palm.
Zhou Xian relaxed his brow and explained in a low voice, "I can't go. I can't let others know that I'm sick and going to the hospital."
Their eyes met, and Jiang Zhouzhou saw a hint of unspeakable sorrow in Zhou Xian's eyes.
Thinking of his father's situation, she was the first to yield and compromise: "Okay, then you go back to your room first. Tonight... I'll take care of you."
Zhou Xian's eyes flickered, thinking he was imagining things.
At this moment, Jiang Zhouzhou pushed him away and walked into his house. The first thing she did after entering was to nag, "You go lie down and rest first. I'll go to the refrigerator to get some ice cubes. You can use a towel to cool your forehead later."
Since he is unwilling to go to the hospital, we can only try to lower his temperature with physical methods first.
Zhou Xian smiled as he looked at her. Perhaps he was delirious from the fever, but he felt as if a white and tender little rabbit was babbling in his ear.
This feeling of being cared for.
It's really addictive.
Instead of going back to his bedroom to lie down, he leaned against the sofa. Jiang Zhouzhou came over with a towel containing ice cubes and gently placed it on his forehead.
The cool temperature immediately dispelled the heat on my forehead.
Zhou Xian tilted her head back, looking up at the small face in front of her. Her expression was tense, and her lips were pressed into a straight line.
She couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so good to me?"
Jiang Zhouzhou's movements stiffened slightly, and her gaze fell on Zhou Xian's face.
“You are my friend, I can’t ignore you, even if it were someone else…”
Zhou Xian interrupted her: "Stop, I don't want to hear the rest."
He looked at her with a slightly dissatisfied expression: "Can't you say some nice things to coax people like you do during the live stream?"
Jiang Zhouzhou's lips twitched: "How can these be the same?"
Zhou Xian replied matter-of-factly, "Why not?"
He pulled out his phone, searched for a whole page of cheesy pickup lines with one hand, and then handed the phone to Jiang Zhouzhou.
"Come on, read it all to me."
Jiang Zhouzhou: "..."
I wanted to smash my phone in his face.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Zhou Xian pouted and said, "Fine, fine, if you won't read it to me, I'll read it to you."
His voice was hoarse from illness, and his tone unconsciously carried a hint of flirtation.
"Baby, I took my medicine today. What kind of medicine? It's because I miss you so much..."
Before he could utter the last word, Jiang Zhouzhou covered his mouth.
She stared at Zhou Xian with a flushed face, pleading in a soft voice, "Please, shut up!"
Even when this person is sick, he is restless, so we cannot give him the opportunity to take advantage of us.
Zhou Xian then noticed that Jiang Zhouzhou's hand was injured, and immediately stopped teasing her.
What happened to your hand?
Holding the back of her hand, he saw the two shocking scratch marks, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Zhouzhou withdrew her hand and explained, "It's nothing. I was just teasing Brother Nanfeng's cat and got caught by accident."
Upon hearing that it was Gu Nanfeng's cat that had done this, Zhou Xian snorted coldly: "Like father, like son. If the person is no good, the cat is no good either."
Jiang Zhouzhou said weakly, "But Tangyuan grabbed Brother Nanfeng first..."
Zhou Xian laughed: "Oh, well done."
Jiang Zhouzhou remained silent. How could people be so hypocritical!
"By the way, Brother Nanfeng lives downstairs."
Jiang Zhouzhou told him about Gu Nanfeng.
Zhou Xian didn't react much. "Yes, I've seen him."
Of these men, Gu Nanfeng was the most troublesome, and Zhou Xian didn't want to confront him.
Do you like Gu Nanfeng?
Zhou Xian asked abruptly, caught off guard.
Jiang Zhouzhou was completely baffled by his question. "Are you out of your mind?"
I applied a little more pressure with the hand that was applying the ice to him, to help him regain his senses.
Observing her reaction, Zhou Xian knew that she wasn't really interested yet.
With a cheerful smile, she said, "Don't like him."
"If you want to like someone... try liking me first..."
